Overwhelming fear made her forget her own weakness.
The instinct to protect her teacher overrode everything.
She let out a sharp cry.
Her pure Byakugan instantly became bloodshot, and Gentle Fist Chakra erupted!
"Rotation!"
Hinata's small body began to spin at high speed.
The absolute defense domain formed by Chakra instantly expanded, attempting to repel the approaching Di Yan.
This was the absolute defense the Hyuga Clan prided itself on!
However, facing this secret technique, hailed as the ultimate defense, Di Yan's face didn't even show a ripple.
His advancing footsteps didn't falter in the slightest.
Just as the high-speed spinning Chakra sphere was about to touch his body, he casually extended his right hand.
That hand was fair and slender, with clearly defined knuckles.
Yet, it carried a sense of power that defied all rules!
He didn't attempt to decipher the Chakra flow of the Rotation, nor did he look for weaknesses.
He just... directly grabbed into it!
Snap!
A crisp, heart-stopping sound!
The high-speed spinning Rotation domain, like a popped bubble, instantly disintegrated.
Chakra turbulence scattered... Hinata felt an irresistible immense force instantly gripping her slender neck.
The sensation of suffocation and the coldness of death already enveloped her.
Her small body was easily lifted off the ground by Di Yan, like a chick!
"Cough... ugh..."
Hinata's small face instantly turned crimson, and her feet kicked futilely.
Her Byakugan rolled back due to pain and suffocation.
Filled with incredible terror!
Di Yan held Hinata's neck with one hand, as if she were an insignificant object.
He coldly looked down at her struggling in pain.
His voice was like ice: "The Hyuga family's absolute defense? In the face of absolute power, it's nothing more than... a Ninja game of make-believe."
His words were filled with contempt for Konoha's proud heritage.
"Let her go! Di Yan! You beast! Let Hinata go!"
Kurenai Yuhi, restrained by genjutsu and unable to move, let out a heart-wrenching cry, her eyes splitting with rage.
But she could only watch her disciple suffer!
Di Yan didn't even glance at Kurenai Yuhi, casually waving his arm!
"Ah!"
Hinata's small body was flung away like a kite with a broken string.
She crashed heavily onto the large bed at the far end of the room.
The soft brocade quilt absorbed some of the impact, but the immense force still made her see stars.
Her internal organs felt displaced, and she curled up in the corner of the bed, groaning in pain.
She couldn't get up for a while.
"Hinata!"
Kurenai Yuhi's heart was breaking.
She desperately tried to break through the genjutsu restraint within her, but it was like an ant trying to shake a tree, completely unmoving.
She could only scream in despair, "Don't hurt her! Come at me if you have to!"
Di Yan finally turned his cold gaze back to Kurenai Yuhi, a cruel smile playing on his lips:
"Come at you? Of course. I said, it is you who will be punished."
He walked step by step to the restrained Kurenai Yuhi, looking down at her:
"Not hurting Hinata? That's possible."
He paused, savoring the last flicker of hope in Kurenai Yuhi's eyes, then crushed it mercilessly, "But the prerequisite is... you, must properly accept my punishment."
Kurenai Yuhi's body trembled.
She looked at the malicious glint in his eyes.
A huge sense of shame almost suffocated her.
She spoke with difficulty, her voice trembling with humiliation:
"Take... take me to another room... please..."
She couldn't imagine, couldn't bear, to endure that kind of punishment... in front of Hinata!
... 21 Punishment for Kurenai Yuhi; High-tech Ninja Tools
"Another room?"
Di Yan chuckled, as if he had heard an amusing joke, "Yuhi, do you think you still have the right to negotiate terms with me?"
"Ordinary punishment is clearly not enough for a pet like you, who harbors delusions and dares to play tricks right under my nose."
As he spoke, under Kurenai Yuhi's terrified gaze, Di Yan slowly pulled something out of his Pregnant.
It was an oval-shaped object, about the size of an egg, entirely silver-white, with a cold metallic sheen.
The surface was smooth, without any buttons or interfaces.
There was only a subtle groove at the top, seemingly for Chakra injection.
"Do you recognize this?"
Di Yan toyed with the small metallic object, his tone as casual as someone introducing a new invention.
"The latest gadget developed by the Land of Fire Royal Research Institute. It combines the cutting-edge achievements of Ninja tool principles and mechanical engineering."
He held the egg up to Kurenai Yuhi's eyes, allowing her to see it more clearly:
"Its core is a miniature Chakra conversion array and an ultra-high-speed miniature rotor."
"It only needs a trace of Chakra to activate its internal energy core."
"Allowing this rotor to operate continuously at... well, speeds far exceeding human limits, and maintaining an extremely stable high-frequency vibration state."
"This has greatly promoted the automation and mechanization process of Ninja tools in the Land of Fire, with infinite potential."
Kurenai Yuhi listened with a pounding heart.
An ominous premonition, like a cold viper, coiled around her heart.
She didn't understand why Di Yan was introducing something that sounded like an engineering Ninja tool at this moment!
What did this have to do with the punishment she was about to face?!
"You... what exactly do you want to do?"
Kurenai Yuhi's voice trembled with fear.
The smile on Di Yan's face vanished, replaced by a bone-chilling cruelty.
He no longer beat around the bush.
His gaze, like a surgeon's knife, landed precisely on a hidden and vulnerable part of Kurenai Yuhi's body.
He spoke each word clearly:
"I want you to put this little thing... inside..."
Boom!
The last few words were like a bolt from the blue, exploding directly in Kurenai Yuhi's mind.
Kurenai Yuhi's mind instantly went blank.
As if struck by the most violent thunder.
She understood... she fully understood the terrifying implications of Di Yan's introduction.
High-frequency vibration... continuous operation... What did he take her for?
"No..."
A piercing, distorted scream burst from Kurenai Yuhi's throat, filled with extreme terror and shame.
Her face instantly turned ashen, and her body trembled violently.
If she hadn't been restrained by genjutsu, she probably would have collapsed to the ground.
This kind of punishment... was more cruel than any torture.
This was to subject her to continuous, tearing pain and unimaginable humiliation.
And in front of Hinata?
"You'd best obey."
Di Yan's voice was like a curse from hell, coldly declaring, "Then, activate it. Keep it running."
"This is the price for daring to deceive me."
He leaned down and placed the cold metallic "egg" into Kurenai Yuhi's right hand, which was the only part of her that could still barely move, though it was stiff with fear.
The cold metallic touch was like a premonition of death.
"Remember, the operation cannot stop."
Di Yan leaned close to Kurenai Yuhi's red eyes, which were unfocused with fear, the curve of his lips cruel and pleased:
"When it ends, depends on my mood. Perhaps... when your Ino–Shika–Chō little friends are all here?"
"No... don't... please... don't do this..."
Kurenai Yuhi's voice was broken and filled with desperate pleas.
Tears gushed out like a broken dam.
She looked at the cold metal torture device in her hand.
Then she looked at Hinata, who had just managed to sit up in the corner of the bed, rubbing her sore shoulder, her small face still showing confusion and incomprehension.
Hinata clearly hadn't understood the terrifying implications of Di Yan's technical descriptions.
