"Indeed you did. The fact that you didn't originally, though, was the most painful," he said for clarity's sake. In all fairness, the worst thing about the situation was the unknown; that which he didn't see, but knew had occurred prior to his arrival. Benihime went on to note her falling to something that shouldn't have been capable of controlling her, but Youko disagreed wholeheartedly with this. "It shouldn't have controlled you, you say," he said while sliding off the workbench to stand before the redhead. In doing so, he triggered the transformation of his Kekkei Genkai into its Blood Moon state.

"You were against the Sharingan. You can't even begin to fathom the strength of a true Genjutsu. Previous manipulation aside, there was nothing you would have been able to do without falling deeper into the web. Here... I'll show you." From that moment forward, if Benihime happened to look the man in the eye, she would be subjected to the full force of his own Genjutsu. Both individuals would appear within a void world of his creation, occurring in real time. "The key to breaking Genjutsu is first knowing you're being affected by one. That advantage is immediately taken away when a Dojutsu is in use. If you were to start breaking out of this now, I could just as quickly create another Genjutsu within this one. You'd free yourself from here, just to be in the next world."
