Chapter 65: My Fireball is Huge
After school, Kitazawa left the academy and headed to Kurenai Yuhi’s home.
After knocking and receiving permission, he pushed the door open and walked in.
In the living room, Kurenai Yuhi and Yakumo Kurama were sitting side by side.
Neither of them was wearing shoes, and two pairs of jade-like feet—one large, one small—rested on the floor.
"Teacher Kitazawa."
Yakumo Kurama said in a gentle tone.
Her voice contained a fascinating, magical charm.
Kitazawa couldn't help but relax; he felt the fatigue accumulated from his workday vanish completely.
"How is it?"
Kurenai Yuhi asked with a smile, "Do you feel refreshed?"
"Indeed, I do."
Kitazawa came back to his senses and remarked with emotion, "Yakumo's talent for genjutsu is truly terrifying."
"After all, it is the Kurama clan, which was once as famous as the Uchiha clan."
Kurenai Yuhi paused and asked, "You've come at the right time. What do you think we should name this vocal genjutsu?"
The reason Yakumo Kurama’s voice had been special just now was that she had used a vocal genjutsu.
It was a D-rank genjutsu that Kitazawa and Kurenai Yuhi had spent two weeks creating.
Its effect was simple: through sound, it caused the target to lower their guard and cleared away fatigue.
"A name?"
Kitazawa rubbed his chin.
He was a typical failure when it came to naming things.
When playing games, he would waste an hour or two just on naming characters.
"How about 'Speech Therapy Jutsu'?"
Kitazawa had a flash of inspiration and said.
"Treating with words? Not bad, it fits the effect of this genjutsu quite well."
Kurenai Yuhi pondered and said.
"Thank you, both teachers."
Yakumo Kurama stood up, bowed slightly, and said.
"Don't mention it."
Kitazawa patted her head and said, "If you can become a psychological medical ninja, it will be beneficial for us as well."
"That's right."
Kurenai Yuhi echoed, "Perhaps in the future, we will have to trouble you to treat us."
She wasn't just comforting Yakumo Kurama.
In fact, the ninjas most susceptible to psychological trauma are genjutsu ninjas.
The reason is simple.
Genjutsu belongs to Yin Release; fighting an enemy is a clash of spiritual power, and if one is not careful, it will leave behind psychological hidden dangers.
For example, Kakashi Hatake in the original story.
He was hit by Itachi Uchiha’s Tsukuyomi, suffered severe mental trauma, and was unconscious for an entire month.
Of course, the real unlucky one was Sasuke Uchiha.
Every time the hatred in his heart lessened, Itachi Uchiha would use genjutsu to stimulate him fiercely, repeatedly replaying the VCR of the clan's annihilation.
"Yes!"
Yakumo Kurama said very firmly, "I will work hard!"
"Kurenai and I can only help you with genjutsu."
Kurenai Yuhi thought for a moment and said, "But your true power lies in your Kekkei Genkai, so you need to develop it properly."
"I understand."
Yakumo Kurama nodded and said, "Teacher Kitazawa has already pointed out the direction for me; I will use the paintbrush in my hand to unleash its power."
"Your Kekkei Genkai is very strong."
Kitazawa thought of Ido from the original story and reminded her, "Do not fear it; you must accept it."
"I will."
A smile appeared on Yakumo Kurama's face as she said, "Don't I still have you two? There will definitely be no problem."
"There is plenty of time, take it slow."
Kurenai Yuhi stood up and said, "Kitazawa, stay for dinner before you go; I'm going to cook."
"Alright."
