Konoha: Starting with a sign-in for Hashirama cells

Returning to the three-tomoe form, Ino said, "It's coming."

"Oh." Naruto mentally prepared himself.

After waiting for a while, Ino couldn't help but ask, "Can you return to your normal state? I used genjutsu five times, but I couldn't shake the chakra in your body at all. It's as hard as a rock."

"..." Naruto.

They had such high expectations for the Mangekyou Sharingan and the Rinnegan that they forgot about this.

After informing the cells that he was exiting Sage Mode, and instructing them not to resist and to remain quiet, Naruto nodded: "Alright."

Ino formed hand seals and stared wide-eyed.

The illusion hypnosis was successful.

Naruto's eyelids drooped halfway, his eyes were lifeless and dull.

Hinata activated her Byakugan to observe Naruto's chakra flow.

While modifying and adjusting the scene within the genjutsu according to Naruto's requirements, Ino was distracted and thinking.

The Sharingan is indeed useful; it makes using genjutsu easier and greatly enhances its power.

Also, why can the Nine-Tails' chakra be transferred to others, but Sakura's Five-Tails cannot?

What's so special about the Nine-Tails?

About six minutes have passed.

Hinata paused, startled: "That's..."

Through the Byakugan, one could see that Naruto's brain was secreting a chakra that was different from ordinary chakra.

It can't even be called chakra; it's some other unknown energy.

This energy flowed through a fixed path into his eyes, and at that moment, Naruto's eyes changed from azure to crimson, reflecting a tomoe within.

"It's here!" Hinata covered her mouth, not daring to make a sound.

Ino's expression remained unchanged. While maintaining the illusion, she controlled the scene within it and continued to develop the illusion.

Illusion is a form of deception that creates illusions. It is a false existence that operates at a different speed than time in reality; it can be very fast or very slow.

In order to achieve the best effect, Ino cannot move too fast; she must carefully control every detail of what Naruto sees and hears.

If Naruto begins to doubt that this is a genjutsu, and is unable to fully immerse himself in it, then advancing his Sharingan will become nothing but empty talk.

Low-level or ordinary genjutsu can be broken by pain, but mid-level and advanced genjutsu enhanced by the Sharingan cannot be broken by ordinary pain.

Half an hour passed.

Tears welled up in her eyes.

Adding one more magatama makes it a double magatama.

Ino frowned slightly, as Naruto's awakened Sharingan made hypnosis more difficult.

Fortunately, this was expected, and she quickly adjusted, increasing her chakra consumption to reinforce the genjutsu.

Before we knew it, three hours had passed.

Naruto's eyes were filled with tears.

If one more magatama is added, it becomes a three-magatama.

Hinata reminded her to activate her Mangekyou Sharingan beforehand, which stabilized the genjutsu well and prevented any flaws from causing it to stop halfway through.

The Mangekyou Sharingan against the Three-Tomoe Sharingan represents a level of superiority. Since it doesn't require consuming eye power and is supported by the Nine-Tails' chakra provided by the Shadow Clone Technique, Ino's performance was relatively easy.

Chapter 127 The Six Azure Stripes

Gululu.

Hearing the noise, Ino glanced over out of the corner of her eye and saw Hinata blushing and lowering her head in embarrassment.

"My chakra is plentiful, and I haven't reached the point where I need to deplete my eye power yet. Everything is stable," Ino said.

"If you're hungry, you can go home for a meal and then come back. It's okay. Depending on the interval between each stage, the transition to the next stage won't be as simple as just a few hours."

"Then I'll go back first..." Hinata whispered.

"No need for that trouble, just have the other shadow clones bring it over. Ino should have some too," said Naruto, a shadow clone. "It looks like this won't be ready anytime soon."

"I'll pass," Ino hesitated. "It's better to stay on an empty stomach. If I eat or drink, I'll need to go to the toilet, and it's not very convenient for me right now."

Naruto, the shadow clone, remained silent, then turned to Hinata and said, "Then I'll just bring you your food."

"Is this a place to eat? There's not even a seat. Let's go back to eat; it won't take long," Ino said.

"The constant movement, the smells, the noises, all distract me."

Upon hearing this, Hinata whispered, "I'll go back and eat, then I'll come back."

Naruto, the shadow clone, looked at Ino.

Ino pretended not to see it.

After a moment, Naruto, the Shadow Clone, formed hand seals and created a shadow clone to send Hinata home.

“Now it’s just the two of us. Hinata’s Byakugan can’t possibly see us from this distance,” Ino said.

"Let me state in advance that the illusion must not be interrupted."

"Interfering with me comes at a high price. Think it over before you do anything."

"What do you want to do?" asked Naruto, the shadow clone.

“I think…” Ino said.

"Tell me, Yamanaka Ino, do you dislike her?"

Still trapped in the genjutsu, Naruto, completely hypnotized, stammered, "I don't dislike it."

"Do you like Yamanaka Ino?" Ino asked.

"I like it," Naruto said blankly.

"..." Shadow clone Naruto.

"Aren't you happy to know that I like you?" Ino asked.

“Happy,” Naruto said blankly.

"You rejected me because of Hinata?" Ino asked.

“Yes,” Naruto said blankly.

Speculation is speculation, but getting the answer from Naruto is a different story. Ino sighed and said, "Let me say it again, the price of interfering with me is not small. Think it through before you act."

"..." Shadow clone Naruto.

Ino stepped forward.

Get close to Naruto.

Her lips, Naruto's lips...

They were stuck together.

Instantly separate.

"This was my first kiss."

"Whether we can be together in the future or not, I want to give this to the person I like."

"I might regret it later, but at least for now, I'm giving it to you willingly."

"..." Shadow clone Naruto.

Having asked the questions she wanted to ask and done the things she wanted to do, Ino felt a great sense of relief.

Then he thought of Sakura, but Hinata wasn't there, and Naruto was unable to resist, being in a hypnotic state and unable to lie.

"Do you know Sakura likes you but are pretending not to, or do you simply not believe Sakura likes you?" Ino asked.

"I don't believe it," Naruto said blankly.

"Why?" Ino asked, puzzled.

“Sakura likes Sasuke, and in the end she will choose Sasuke.” Naruto said blankly.

"That mindset is really strong, she still doesn't believe me even after I've confessed..." Ino said speechlessly, "So, do you like Sakura?"

"I like it," Naruto said blankly.

"You like Hinata, you like me, and you like Sakura, you're such a womanizer." Ino laughed and scolded, "Who else do you like?"

"Tsunade, Mei Terumi, Kurenai Yuhi, Anko who hasn't gotten fat yet, Samui, Shion, Kurotsuchi with her legs..." Naruto said blankly.

"..." Ino.

"..." Shadow clone Naruto.

"Well, everyone loves beauty. Slap your conscience and tell me, you don't like handsome guys?" said Shadow Clone Naruto.

“Yes, that makes sense,” Ino said stiffly. “Have you ever considered having your cake and eat it too?”

"No," Naruto said blankly.

Naruto, the shadow clone, breathed a sigh of relief and, not daring to let Ino ask any more questions, quickly said, "That's enough!"

"Everyone has a secret or two. If you keep digging like this, the main body will get angry. You probably don't want to offend the main body, right?"

Ino nodded silently, showing no intention of asking any further questions.

In any case, it confirms that Naruto likes her, and it also proves that Naruto doesn't have the intention of two-timing her and doesn't want to be a scumbag. That's enough.

Although Naruto liked more women than she expected, and there were even a few she had never heard of, it somewhat dampened her joy.

Overall, the good outweighs the bad.

Not long after, Hinata, having eaten her fill, was brought here by a shadow clone.

The atmosphere was completely still.

Ino remained focused, concentrating intently on maintaining and advancing the illusion.
