Killing Intent

is simply the user exuding pure killing intention, and having it affect their opponent, themselves, and others around them, up to the point of paralysing them with fear.Naruto chapter 12, pages 10-13 When the killing intent is particularly strong, it can even give the victim visions of their own gruesome death.Naruto chapter 47, pages 6-9 This can cause killing intent to be confused with a genjutsu, despite it not being a jutsu at all.
