If there is enough pressure to make neutrons, we are well past making iron. They are pushed into the core regardless if they are bound to the classical orbits or in a plasma state, the latter at these pressures really does not mean anything anymore, the electrons can freely move in any case.
The + charge of the nucleus is accelerated to the electrons, so it first gets faster, then just as much slower again when it flies past them.

Umm why are they accelerated to electrons?
For the same reason nuclei repel each other: opposite charges attracted each other, same charge repels.
