Chapter 22 - Kurenai

After leaving the Training Field 3, Naruto returned to his home. Kakashi Sensei said that his genjutsu teacher, Kurenai would come to his house to teach him because learning ninjutsu didn't need the spacious room.

Naruto: Hehe, she will be here alone with me. let me think, something Kurenai sensei has never tried before, the thing which will make her happy.

As Naruto was thinking a thought suddenly struck in his mind and he excitedly said.

Naruto: ah!! get it. The way to a woman's heart? It's through her stomach! Feed your partner well and 'she'll be more interested in romance.

I think I should give him cuisine which she had never tried before, like a Pizza and other foods that didn't appear in this world. Moreover, I was taking part-time work in a restaurant in my previous world. I hope I still have my previous cooking skill"

Naruto made a hand seal and created 10 clones.

"Comrades, let's prepare for this night. You buy the ingredient for this night, you help me cooking, and the rest clean the house. Now, dismiss"

"Okay boss"

3 hours later.

Naruto was waiting in his living room.

Knock knock.

Opening the door, Naruto was greeted by a fair-skinned woman with a slender build. She has long black untamed hair reaching her upper back and very unique eyes that are red in color, with an additional ring in them.

"Good evening, Naruto! I'm Kurenai Yuhi and I will be your Genjutsu instructor"

"Oh, come in, Kurenai Sensei."

When she entered Naruto's house, the fragrance entered her nose, after that her stomach was growling. Naruto then looked at her, making her very embarrassed. She just finished the mission and didn't eat dinner.

"Oh, are you hungry, Kurenai sensei? I just make food, let's eat together"

When they arrived at the dining room, she was very surprised, there were so many foods she didn't know. "What are these, Naruto? What is in this box?"

"Oh! These are the cuisine that I made for celebrating my first day of special training programs and clearing 10 missions. Before I was a Genin, I never get any attention from any villagers. They looked at me with disgusting looks and full of hatred. But after clearing missions, some of them already smiled at me. Moreover, Old man started to give me this special training program. Although I'm alone and don't have family, I'm happy." The tears appeared from his eyes.

Kurenai just nodded. she muttered to herself "Because of Kyuubi, this kid didn't have any family and he was treated badly by villagers. What a poor kid"

Naruto pointed at the foods. "This is pizza, and that dessert is Tiramisu"

"What is this food? I never see this food in Konoha"

"Oh, I'm creating them myself. Because I'm living alone and didn't have enough money before, I'm increasing creativity in my cooking skills. You must try them, Kurenai sensei. They are delicious"

Kurenai looked at the round dish with lots of toppings on it, she picked out a slice of pizza and took a bite. Her eyes suddenly became wide open.

Kurenai: OH MY GOD, THIS THING IS DELICIOUS, IT IS EVEN BETTER THAN ICHIRAKU RAMEN.

After both of them finished eating Pizza, they ate the Tiramisu. Because she liked sweet so much, this tiramisu opened her heart to Naruto. Moreover, she never found the same food that she had eaten just now.

Naruto's delicious food completely conquered the appetite of Kurenai. Naruto looked at Kurenai and smiled.

Naruto "Beside old man and Iruka, no one ever accompanied me to eat. Thank you Kurenai sensei"

Kurenai just thought something. Then she hugged Naruto "Naruto, from now. Call me sister Kurenai, okay?"

Naruto hugged her "Okay, sister"

Kurenai: I will come every day at night, and we can eat dinner together.

Naruto smiled "Thank you, my dear sister"

….

Kurenai "Alright, I'm going to teach you about Genjutsu, how to cast one, and how to get out of one. Trust me, it's important."

Naruto nodded to her and listened carefully." alright my dear sister"

Kurenai "Alright, to cast a Genjutsu is the same as casting a Ninjutsu; it involves your Chakra and hand seals. The main purpose of Genjutsu is to place your opponent under an illusion, distracting them for a moment. The best way to throw someone under a Genjutsu is to be sneaky, distract the opponent for a moment, and then try and disrupt your opponent's Chakra with your own. Attention to detail is the main point you have to focus on while creating a Genjutsu, or the person can see through it, quite easily. You need the distraction, to get your opponent to take their attention off of you, and your next efforts. Understand?"

Naruto: yes Sister, the main idea of Genjutsu is to confuse and distract.

Kurenai: "Alright. I want you to cast a Genjutsu on me. And remember..details. Throw in whatever you can think of."

Naruto: he stood there kinda looking stupid as he looks to her..- uh Sister, I don't know any hand signs involved with Genjutsu-

Kurenai: "You won't need any at the moment. Only specific Genjutsu's use of specific hand seals. For now, just build and channel your Chakra."

Naruto nodded and stood next to her and began to gather his chakra. He would keep his eyes on her as he attempted to channel his chakra through himself and around her. Kurenai then arrived at another world. She arrived at the flower park.

Kurenai just sat there and wanted to check how powerful Naruto's genjutsu. Naruto came to her and brought a lot of tiramisus.

"Sister, I brought a lot of Tiramisu. Let's eat together"

Kurenai just nodded. But when she looked at Naruto, some villagers appeared and threw stones to him.

"Go away, demon fox"

"Don't come here, demon child"

Kurenai stood up and protected him. "Don't attack my little brother"

But then Naruto lost control of himself, turning him into Kyuubi, attacking the village.

Kurenai "Stop, Naruto…. Stop"

Kurenai forgot about this is just an illusion. Naruto then dismissed his illusion.

Kurenai's original body dropped to her knee again and looked to Naruto as the genjutsu broke. " How was that Sister?"
