Mind's Eye of the Kagura Unleashed! Turning the Tables!
"It's my turn."
Naruto pressed his fingertips against Kurenai's chin and lifted her up.
Red moved extremely fast, and the kunai pressed against her neck Kunai applied pressure, attempting to cut open her blood vessels and force her to retreat.
But this resistance was futile. The Kunai's blade did indeed cut through the skin, and in the half-second that blood seeped out, the domineering and unparalleled vitality of Naruto's Perfect Uzumaki Sage Body erupted. The wound closed and healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving not even a trace of red.
Not only did Naruto not retreat, he even pushed his neck forward, meeting the blade head-on.
Red's hand froze in mid-air. This kid is an unreasonable madman.
"Red-sensei." Naruto lowered his head, closing the distance between them, his warm breath brushing against the other's cheek, "Your trick not only didn't work, but it actually made you deliver yourself to my doorstep."
Withdraw!
Hong's brain was frantically alarming; she slammed her right leg against the tree trunk to create distance, while her hands flew to prepare to change formations Hand Seals.
It's too late.
[Mind's Eye of the Kagura - Advanced Version] is superimposed with the [Great Evolution Divine Soul Art] at the Great Perfection stage.
Two top-tier mental techniques were fully activated in that instant. There was no sign of Chakra flow, no Hand Seals, only a tangible mental storm, with Naruto absolute core, exploding wildly in all directions!
Boom!
The entire Genjutsu space trembled violently. The pink, illusory sky above was ripped apart by an invisible hand, leaving countless dark cracks. The soil beneath their feet churned up, and rows of old locust trees around them snapped in half, their fluttering pink petals instantly turning to dust.
Click click click!
The ear-piercing crackling sounds continued incessantly. The "Tree Binding Death" absolute domain that Hong had painstakingly constructed couldn't even last half a second before collapsing into countless falling specks of light.
"What?!"
Kurenai gasped in horror. She realized with terror that her control over this space was being forcibly stripped away! The Chakra within her meridians was completely out of control, surging wildly everywhere. Her mental world was in turmoil, and the oppressive feeling surging towards her was far beyond what a fifteen-year-old Genin could possess!
This is terrifying. This mental power is so overwhelming that even those geniuses of the Uchiha Clan who rely on their Sharingan arrogantly would be crushed into dust!
The positions of the hunter and the prey were switched on the spot.
Naruto never intended to break free. It was pointless. Since you want to play the mental invasion game, then completely crush the original owner's will, uproot this space, and take it for yourself!
The Great Evolution Divine Soul Art penetrated deep and unrestrained, barbaric and brutal.
A buzzing sound filled Red Brain, and all strength left his body. The collapsing scenery around him rapidly distorted and reformed. The mixed forest was gone, and the breeze had stopped.
In an instant, the world changed color. The two found themselves in a boundless, dark red void.
Just as Kurenai was about to regain her footing, more than a dozen thick, golden Chakra Chains, each as thick as a bucket, suddenly shot out from the darkness behind her.
Bang bang bang!
Chains tightly bound her wrists, ankles, and slender waist. A terrifying force suddenly pulled, ripping her away and pinning her heavily to a towering stone pillar that rose from the ground!
She desperately tried to unleash her inner power to fight back, only to find, to her despair, that her meridians were completely still. These golden chains not only sealed off her physical movements but also severed all her connections with the source of Chakra.
Fish on a cutting board.
Meanwhile, in the real world, in a real mixed forest.
The shadows of the trees were dappled. Naruto and Kurenai stood facing each other, less than three meters apart, their eyes closed and motionless.
Five hundred meters away, atop a large tree, three members of Special Surveillance Squad from the Anbu were intently watching the commotion.
"Captain, how did Kurenai Yūhi from Team 8 end up going up against Naruto Uzumaki?" the Anbu member codenamed 'Saru' asked in a low voice.
"The Chakra fluctuations are stable. It's Kurenai's signature Five-Senses Hijacking Barrier." The captain examined the data on his handheld detector and analyzed softly, "Kurenai's mastery of Genjutsu ranks among the top three in Hidden Leaf. Although Naruto Uzumaki is Taijutsu, he's still young. This time, he's met his match. Genjutsu battles are a contest of mental fortitude honed over the years."
Another person beside him nodded in agreement. "That's right, this brat is too arrogant. The Red Jonin's personal intervention is a good way to curb his arrogance and force him to reveal his trump card. We just need to report this to the Lord Hokage truthfully."
Those outside viewed it as a routine test of one-sided domination, assuming the newly Genin would soon collapse in the illusion.
Little did they know, in the deepest space of the Genjutsu, the rules of Hidden Leaf had long been trampled into mud.
Naruto kept his hands in his pockets, his shoes making crisp footsteps as he walked towards the stone pillar, step by step.
"When you were tying me up, did you think this trick was foolproof?"
He stopped in front of Red, his gaze sweeping over her head without restraint. The fishnet lining clung tightly to her proud curves, and the chains tightened around her, emphasizing her exaggerated curves. This aggressive scrutiny stripped away all the pretense this Jonin.
Hong gritted her teeth and twisted her body violently twice. The chains tightened, the cold touch digging into her flesh, bringing a piercing pain.
"Naruto Uzumaki! Release the spatial dimension immediately! This is during the Chunin Ninja Exams, what do you think you're doing?" she shouted. Unfortunately, faced with such an overwhelming difference in power, her warning sounded more like a weak plea for mercy.
"What are you doing?" Naruto pulled out one hand and slammed it against the stone pillar next to his red ear.
A standard wall slam.
The violent life force of Perfect Sage Body, mixed with the domineering aura of extreme pure Yang, crashed down like a tsunami. Hong's chest heaved violently, and her once steady breathing became completely disordered.
"You forcibly dragged me into the depths of your mind, and now you're asking me what I want?" Naruto leaned closer, his lips brushing against her earlobe. "Red-sensei, since you're here to probe, how can you go back and write a report without personally testing the waters?"
Bite--
[System notification: Rank A target Kurenai Yūhi has suffered a devastating blow to her psychological defenses.]
[Emotions are fluctuating wildly! Current favorability has plummeted from rock bottom, while fear and feelings of unease are soaring.]
[It is recommended that the host continue to apply pressure and take the opportunity to establish an absolute bond of obedience!]
The system voice in my mind stamped the approval on this hunt.
Naruto's fingers slid down his fair, reddish-white neck, stopping at the edge of his collarbone.
"Don't touch me!" Kurenai cried out, desperately trying to shrink back. Behind her was a solid stone pillar, and in front of her was Naruto's broad chest; there was nowhere to retreat.
The Jonin, who had always been revered as the goddess of genjutsu by the entire village, was now experiencing the panic of falling into a bottomless pit. Her mental simulation before leaving home went like this: Naruto's taijutsu is superb, so she would use genjutsu to control him unexpectedly, probe his trump cards, and give this arrogant newcomer a vivid lesson.
As a result, everything collapsed. She had provoked a demon king who defied common sense and whose mental power was so terrifying that he could crush the rules with one hand.
Naruto's fingertips slowly caressed the fabric through his hand. The Pure Yang Fire emanating from his palm was enough to ignite one's soul. As a spiritual entity constructed from Yin Release Genjutsu, Kurenai had an instinctive reaction to this pure Yang Release Chakra etched into her very bones—extreme fear, yet an irresistible attraction.
Every inch of skin he touched felt hot. That flame burned all the way up his spine.
"Do you know what the biggest mistake you made today was?" Naruto whispered, close to her flushed ear.
Hong abruptly turned her head away, trying to avoid the scalding heat, biting her lower lip and remaining silent.
"Your mistake was using Genjutsu." Naruto grabbed her chin with such force that there was no room for resistance, forcibly turning her face towards him. "Outside in that forest, I might have to spend two seconds on guard against those useless ANBU members who plant listening devices Anbu. But here..."
He paused deliberately, pressed his thumb against the tender red lips, and rubbed it hard.
"This is the deepest part of your soul. In other words, no matter how long we stay here, or what outrageous things happen, those flies outside won't even make a sound."
Naruto's chest pressed down completely on top of him.
The distance between the two instantly disappeared.
The scorching heat completely sealed off the red.
"So, Kurenai-sensei, even if I were to devour your entire body and all your pride today, that Third Hokage would only think you were dutifully giving individual tutoring to Genin."
Naruto's fingertips hooked onto the thin fishing net line along the red collar, and his fingers suddenly pulled downwards.
