Chapter 5 - The Sun is Fine, the Wind is Gentle

Because her specialty was Genjutsu, Yuhi Kurenai understood Genjutsu far more than Might Guy and Shiranui Genma.

And the more she understood, the clearer she became about just how powerful the Genjutsu released by this young Jonin before her was!

Using that special, faint fragrance, he pulled people into a Genjutsu unknowingly, using something akin to an olfactory Genjutsu.

Then, within a single breath, he completed the interference and influence on their sense of smell, sight, touch, taste, and hearing.

And the victims didn't even realize they were under a Genjutsu.

This alone was something that ordinary A-Rank Genjutsu couldn't achieve!

Then there was that completely unreasonable, icy killing intent, as if facing a real giant serpent.

It was clearly affecting something beyond the five senses, the most instinctive perception and reaction to danger deep within human genes.

Plus, the last and most important point!

Group casting!

Simultaneously affecting the five senses of three people, while still allowing them to communicate without any sensory deviations.

This was at least a multi-layered combination Genjutsu with A-Rank Genjutsu at its core!

The difficulty of control and the effect of the ninjutsu... it was probably comparable to S-Rank Genjutsu!

Her team leader was actually using a combination Genjutsu with difficulty and power comparable to S-Rank Genjutsu to deal with three rookie Genin?

Thinking about it that way, it was even worse!

"I feel like you're thinking about something very rude."

Yamanaka Kei saw the look in Yuhi Kurenai's eyes, as if she was looking at scum, and narrowed his eyes slightly, bending down to look directly into her ruby-like eyes.

"No, no! How could I?"

Yuhi Kurenai averted her gaze, vehemently denying her slander against her own team leader.

Yamanaka Kei saw that the three little ones had completely forgotten about him being late this morning under his surprise attack and words.

He thought to himself that children were indeed easy to deceive.

Turning to walk out of the training ground, he said to the people behind him again.

"Since you passed the test, then to celebrate the team's formation, I'll treat you to grilled skewers for lunch, follow me."

"It's decided, handstand walk on our fingers to Yakiniku Q! If you can't do it, then two thousand leg kicks!"

Might Guy responded as enthusiastically as ever.

"Kei-sensei said grilled skewers, not grilled meat, so the destination should be Sanmi Residence."

Shiranui Genma corrected, with a senbon in his mouth and drooping eyelids.

"Eh? Is that the shop jointly opened by the Ino-Shika-Cho clans? I heard the prices are very expensive! A single serving of venison slices costs five hundred ryo."

Yuhi Kurenai's eyes lit up slightly, and she secretly decided to put her image aside for the time being and have a good meal.

Otherwise, it would be too unfair to the fright she had just received.

"Their psychological endurance is not bad."

Yamanaka Kei heard the laughter of the three little ones behind him, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The talents of the three are beyond doubt.

Might Guy, who has the strongest talent, possesses the three entries of [Hot-Blooded Youth (Blue)], [Limit Recovery (Blue)], and [Thick Eyebrow Kappa (White)].

Hot-Blooded Youth gives him a self-discipline that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve and a strong will that never gives up.

Limit Recovery allows him to recover faster after his body reaches its limit, and reduces the chance of hidden injuries.

The white entry, Thick Eyebrow Kappa, although it reduces charm and chakra stability, it also improves concentration and physical training effects.

The effects of the three entries are superimposed on each other.

The effect is enough to make 99% of Konoha ninjas beyond reach.

Yuhi Kurenai's talent is second only to Might Guy, with two entries: [Mental Power (Blue)] and [Hallucination (Green)].

The former increases the strength and upper limit of mental power, and the latter enhances the hallucinatory effect of Genjutsu.

If developed properly, the famous scene of 'Itachi's Genjutsu' should not happen again in the future.

As for Shiranui Genma, there is only one entry of [Proximity to Excellence (Blue)].

The effect is that with someone teaching and supervising, it can greatly improve the speed of learning and its own upper limit.

Although the number of entries is small, it may not be weaker than Yuhi Kurenai's talent.

The three little ones are not lacking in mentality and talent.

Yamanaka Kei can be sure that even if he puts a little more effort into teaching, if the three of them do not fall midway like in the original book.

Future achievements will only be higher than the original!

Just looking at the ten-year-old Might Guy, the eleven-year-old Yuhi Kurenai, and the twelve-year-old Shiranui Genma.

He couldn't help but sigh.

When he watched anime, he saw blood and bonds.

But after really coming to this world and struggling in the ninja world full of blood and fighting for more than ten years.

All he can see is cruelty.

Children of eleven or twelve years old.

In his previous life, he hadn't even graduated from elementary school.

But in Konoha, children of this age will begin to face combat and killing.

"This damn place, it really makes people not like it."

Yamanaka Kei complained in his heart.

Having lived two lives, he has long passed the age of being cynical.

But when faced with things in life that he can't stand, he still can't help but ask himself, should he do something?

Mencius said: In poverty, one cultivates one's own virtue in solitude; in prosperity, one benefits all under heaven.

Previously, his abilities were insufficient, and he could only drift along with the current under the rules of the ninja world, not daring to overstep the mark in the slightest.

Now that he has the system...

"Five hundred taels for a plate of venison?! Doesn't that mean a single meal would cost as much as several D-rank missions!"

Might Guy exclaimed in surprise, doing a handstand and jumping forward while trying to calculate how much it would cost with his other hand.

"Don't bother calculating. I heard someone say before that if you don't order anything particularly expensive, it's about three thousand taels per person, roughly three times the cost of Yakiniku Q."

"Th-three thousand? Is it a black market?"

Might Guy was not from a wealthy family to begin with.

Hearing that the average cost was three thousand taels, he was so shocked that he swayed and almost face-planted on the ground.

Yuhi Kurenai looked at Yamanaka Kei, who hadn't spoken to them for a while, and cautiously peeked at him.

Seeing his somewhat heavy expression, she assumed that he hadn't understood the specific situation of Sanmi Residence before, and had only subconsciously wanted to treat his subordinates to something good.

Now that he heard Shiranui Genma's words, he was equally frightened by the price.

The kind-hearted girl ultimately chose to temporarily forgive Yamanaka Kei for almost scaring her to death earlier.

She cautiously opened her mouth to defuse the situation.

"...Kei-sensei, actually, I think ramen is also delicious."

"Hmm? Ha~ hahahaha~!"

Yamanaka Kei was stunned for a moment, then instantly understood Yuhi Kurenai's meaning and couldn't help but laugh.

He raised his hand and rubbed the little girl's head as she leaned over.

Seeing the little girl blushing, wrinkling her little nose, and bashfully fixing her hair, he made up his mind.

He really had to do something!

Not for that empty-headed, worthless Will of Fire.

Nor for the peace of the ninja world that was impossible to achieve.

Simply because he felt that the sun was shining brightly today, the wind was gentle, and the people he met were lovely.
