Limitless Cursed Technique vs. Dual Kamui (4K)

Bai Cangshu stood within his pure white Consciousness Space, one hand resting on the Throne of the Heart, using that single hand for support to remain suspended in the air.

Through his touch on the Throne of the Heart, he could sense what was happening outside his body. The corners of his lips curled up as his eyelids drooped, revealing a disdainful smile.

The two people he had forcibly stuffed into the Throne of the Heart alongside himself had held different attitudes before, but at this moment, the three of them wore unexpectedly identical expressions.

Bai Cangshu, Satoru Gojo, and Uchiha Madara were all arrogant rebels. How could they possibly accept being bestowed honors by a puppet of the Golden Order like Hiranaka Minoru?

Uchiha Madara no longer stopped Satoru Gojo from using cursed energy. As the Limitless Cursed Technique fully unfolded, Hiranaka Minoru, who lunged at Bai Cangshu’s body with the intention of making him king, discovered that he could not reach him no matter what.

The distance between them could never truly vanish.

He was somewhat puzzled. Mercenary Tao was clearly still fighting "for the Golden Order," so why was he rejecting his goodwill…

God-Human Hiranaka Minoru had already sensed the ominous power in his chest gradually awakening as he received immense blessings and power from the Golden Order.

That woman named Heaven’s Will had planted the seeds of disaster within him!

Yet Hiranaka Minoru felt neither joy nor sorrow. He merely maintained his outstretched hand toward Mercenary Tao. Then, Mercenary Tao, standing upon the ground, suddenly turned his head.

Their gazes met. Scarlet tomoe revolved within one eye, evolving from two tomoe into Three Tomoe, and it seemed as though it was still on the verge of changing further. In the other eye, blue skies and white clouds seemed to flow, unfathomably deep.

Though he was looking down at Mercenary Tao from the sky, Hiranaka Minoru felt as though the other man were looking down upon him.

That arrogance emanating from his soul was crystal clear.

As the Three Tomoe spun, God-Human Hiranaka Minoru suddenly froze. A ruined town appeared before him, as though it had only just endured a war.

Hiranaka Minoru instinctively passed through the town, then waded across a river. Beside a waterfall, he found a wooden cabin, outside of which several tiny garments of ragged cloth hung forlornly.

God-Human Hiranaka Minoru shuddered all over. The golden halo in his pupils trembled violently, as though it were about to shatter, while the golden radiance around his body began to rapidly drain away.

This sight made Uchiha Madara look down even more on this so-called God-Human. In the end, he was merely an ordinary man who had luckily obtained some kind of power. His temperament simply could not support him becoming a true powerhouse.

Satoru Gojo was even more indifferent. He did not care in the slightest what kind of existence Hiranaka Minoru was. After the fall of the Jujutsu World, he had cast off the greatest restraint he had borne since birth—the obligation, as the strongest of the Jujutsu World, to protect the weak.

The current Satoru Gojo was wholly loyal to himself. At last, he could display every trace of the arrogance, perversity, and playfulness buried in his bones.

A mere mortal could not possibly interest him.

Powerful cursed energy rose up. Before Chakra extraction reached a sufficient level, before Uchiha Madara’s soul left a deeper imprint upon this body, he was far more accustomed to controlling this body than Madara was.

"After all, I’ve used this body more than once, you know~"

Satoru Gojo spoke teasingly. While Uchiha Madara focused fully on extracting Chakra from the body and increasing his ocular power, there was nothing stopping Gojo from completely taking control of most of its functions.

He mercilessly mocked his host. Having realized that Bai Cangshu’s spirit was as resilient as steel, Satoru Gojo knew he would have trouble truly seizing this body. But he could still seize every opportunity to tease and ridicule him.

Because he had seen through it: his host was greedy to the extreme. In order to fully imprint his Limitless Cursed Technique, Bai Cangshu would never rashly drive him out.

In the Consciousness Space, Bai Cangshu heard the implication behind Satoru Gojo’s words but did not get angry. Gojo was right. Before his pursuit of power, such harmless jokes meant nothing to him.

"Next is you, then, red-eyed kid. That spatial ability of yours has given my poor host quite the headache…"

Uchiha Obito saw Mercenary Tao’s expression and bearing undergo another drastic change. The arrogant Uchiha Madara from before seemed to have vanished, leaving behind another frivolous fellow.

A power he could not comprehend flowed within that eye resembling blue skies and white clouds.

Buzz!

As space distorted, Satoru Gojo’s figure vanished instantly. He appeared behind Obito, formed a gun with his hand, and thrust out a finger. At his fingertip, cursed energy reversed into positive energy, and intense attraction transformed into repulsion, erupting in an instant.

Red!

The air twisted instantly. The powerful repulsive shockwave was invisible and colorless, but its capacity to distort everything made that patch of space resemble an energy sphere created by countless intermingled rays of light. The shockwave blasted forth with a roar.

Uchiha Obito’s heart jolted as warped space passed through his body.

Rumble…

The repulsive shockwave passed through Uchiha Obito’s intangible body and smashed into the black rocks around the meteor crater, pulverizing them in an instant. Fierce, distorted repulsion blasted a crater more than three meters wide into the ground, then tore onward across the lake within the meteor crater, broke through the forest on the far shore, and vanished beyond sight.

The exaggerated range and destructive force of that attack made Uchiha Obito’s eyelids twitch. Moreover, he could tell that the one currently controlling Mercenary Tao’s body had mastered Space-Time Ninjutsu!

Obito frowned. He could not make sense of Mercenary Tao’s condition. It seemed that not only had Uchiha Madara’s soul entered his body, there were other souls in there as well?!

Satoru Gojo watched as his Red distorted space, yet the man before him still evaded it as though he could not be touched.

He propped his chin up with one hand.

"So, your spatial ability is on quite a high level. Even my Limitless Cursed Technique couldn’t touch you. Interesting…"

Satoru Gojo admitted that he had underestimated this red-eyed kid, whom even his host had struggled to deal with. The other man’s temperament and combat intelligence seemed rather mediocre, but this ability was unquestionably powerful.

Uchiha Obito swung both hands. As Shuriken shot out, he formed hand seals, and wooden spikes appeared once more. He had to figure out exactly what information this "Mercenary Tao" possessed now.

The other party’s combat methods were entirely different from those Mercenary Tao had displayed before.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Splat!

The Shuriken and wooden spikes struck the passive defense of the Limitless Cursed Technique. None of those attacks could reach Bai Cangshu’s body, so Satoru Gojo could not even be bothered to dodge or defend.

Obito immediately caught onto that. The one controlling Mercenary Tao’s body possessed some kind of spatial ability similar to his own Kamui intangibility, yet his fighting style was no longer as wild as Mercenary Tao’s had been.

Whether that body still possessed the trait of being unharmed by blades remained uncertain.

Uchiha Obito rapidly analyzed the information while focusing his gaze upon the other man’s head again.

At that moment, Satoru Gojo noticed the distortion of space. He instantly clasped his hands together and vanished.

He reappeared nearly a hundred meters away.

Satoru Gojo’s Six Eyes likewise possessed a 360-degree field of vision without blind spots, along with extremely powerful spatial perception. This allowed him to Teleport freely without worrying about becoming lodged inside a wall.

Obito noticed the distinctive motion of clasping both hands before the other man Teleported, gaining a new understanding. His Space-Time Ninjutsu was extremely convenient, but unlike Mercenary Tao’s previous seal-free movement, he still needed certain hand seals to Teleport.

The two continuously launched attacks, but neither could land a hit due to the other’s spatial ability. Kamui’s attacks were not swift enough, while Satoru Gojo’s attacks could not affect Uchiha Obito while he rendered himself intangible.

As they fought, both kept gathering information on the other.

Elsewhere, Killer B and the Eight-Tails Gyūki climbed to their feet in the distance. They found that the Elden Beast had vanished, leaving only that immensely tall red-haired man floating in the air, his body constantly trembling.

"Was he… caught in a Genjutsu?!"

Killer B and Gyūki could scarcely imagine that a monster with such immense power had been directly controlled by a single Genjutsu. Killer B exchanged a look with his distant brother, A, and both realized that this was likely the best moment to kill the monster.

The next moment, the fully transformed Eight-Tails Gyūki rapidly shrank, leaving its complete tailed beast form. Killer B was one of the rare perfect Jinchuriki and would not lose control from fully transforming, yet he voluntarily reverted to a form that merely borrowed tailed beast Chakra.

A red Chakra cloak appeared over Killer B’s body, while A activated the Strongest Lightning Release Armor. Like twin flashes of lightning, they raced forward and appeared on opposite sides of Hiranaka Minoru before charging violently at one another.

Double Lariat!

The two figures savagely tore through the air, appearing before and behind God-Human Hiranaka Minoru at the same instant. Their violent momentum erupted together, their thick arms like blades beneath their Lightning Release Chakra.

In an instant, they struck Hiranaka Minoru’s neck from both sides.

Splat!

Golden blood spurted out. Hiranaka Minoru’s head flew into the air, and as it spun, his eyes slowly closed while tears streamed down his cheeks.

The next moment, amid flowing golden radiance, the Elden Beast appeared once more.

A golden Claymore gradually condensed in the Elden Beast’s hand.

Hiranaka Minoru experienced that beautiful dream once more. He knew it was a Genjutsu, yet willingly allowed himself to be controlled by it.

He treated it as the final moment of warmth he could enjoy as a human, allowing him to see those three people once more.

"Mother, Yao, Hua… farewell…"

Wail!

The giant beast raised the Golden Order Greatsword high. A massive magic circle appeared in the sky, and golden radiance surged toward the heavens, as though a gaze from beyond the heavens had fallen upon this place.

The golden magic circle instantly illuminated the entire sky. The Erdtree began another violent burst of growth. Seen from space, the planet’s exterior had already begun to change.

Across the planet of intertwining emerald and blue, golden light spread from a single point, claiming an enormous area before continuing to expand.

Within the Consciousness Space, the Death God drifted upward unconsciously. It could not sense the situation outside, but as a native deity, it developed a certain awareness when the world suffered destruction.

Bai Cangshu stood before the throne and looked at its stomach.

"Cut open your own belly and give that Nine-Tails Chakra to me as well!"

In the real world, Satoru Gojo’s figure flickered continuously, while Uchiha Obito likewise appeared and disappeared. The two seemed to be attacking nothing but empty air.

As they continued fighting, the terrain was devastated, and the location of their battle drifted farther and farther away. They did not even see Killer B and A join forces to sever Hiranaka Minoru’s head.

Suddenly, after Uchiha Obito’s figure distorted and vanished, he did not reappear.

After a brief thought, Satoru Gojo appeared where the other man had just disappeared.

Even though that incompetent host, Bai Cangshu, had not given him any information about Kamui, he had figured out the characteristics of the other man’s ability through testing it during their brief battle.

The other man likely possessed the ability to transport himself and others. Transporting others’ bodies caused immense harm, while transporting himself let him evade all damage.

Moreover, this spatial ability had an extremely high priority. At the very least, his Limitless Cursed Technique’s manipulation of space could not disrupt the other man’s transportation ability.

But this ability did not activate that quickly. Therefore, it had an opening. And against someone like him, who could Teleport at any time, the other man would find it difficult to attack him.

Most importantly…

The smile on Satoru Gojo’s lips was unconcealed. He had discovered the other man’s greatest weakness—his lack of combat wisdom!

As he considered this, Uchiha Obito reappeared. The two were almost overlapping within the same space.

Uchiha Obito reached for Mercenary Tao’s body. As long as he could touch him, he could instantly transport Mercenary Tao into his Kamui Dimension!

Obito’s Sharingan completely captured Mercenary Tao’s movements. He was certain that the other man’s hands were too far apart at that moment to activate Teleportation.

His body shifted from intangible to solid in an instant, and his hand touched Mercenary Tao’s shoulder. In that instant, Obito’s heart surged with exhilaration.

I’ve won!

But he could not see that the smile on Bai Cangshu’s lips, while under Satoru Gojo’s control and facing away from him, had become even more pronounced.

He had deliberately exposed such an opening for one reason only—to finish him with a single blow!

He had never intended to use Teleportation. At that moment, his right hand formed a hand seal.

Domain Expansion: Unlimited Void!

Black cursed energy erupted in an instant. Centered upon Bai Cangshu’s body, the barrier enveloped everything around it.

Uchiha Obito had touched Bai Cangshu’s body. Though activating Kamui should have meant winning the battle, he froze where he stood.

Countless pieces of information, countless images, countless scents flooded into his brain, to the point that his thoughts could no longer function.

He only needed a single thought to activate his ability and win, but he could not even form that one thought.

The excessive information left him completely rigid. Every function of his body crashed at that moment.

Satoru Gojo turned under his control and exhaled a breath of white mist. Honestly, with how deeply his technique was currently imprinted upon this body, using this move was exceedingly difficult.

But in the end, at the perfect moment, he had completed his Domain Expansion.

Satoru Gojo walked before Uchiha Obito and grabbed his head. The tangible sensation of actually touching the other man’s body made the smile on his lips grow wider.

"Ha~ Your combat wisdom isn’t enough, red-eyed kid."

He began to exert force. This body’s physical capabilities far exceeded those of his original body, and at this moment, they showed themselves completely. With only a slight exertion, he felt the other man’s neck beginning to tear.

Splat!

Blood began to spray out.

A trace of violet appeared in his eyes. The impact of Satsui no Hado stirred Satoru Gojo’s heart. He stopped playing around and pulled hard.

Splat!

The blue-white Six Eyes abruptly constricted. A black spiral long sword pierced in from beyond Unlimited Void, utterly ignoring cursed energy and every obstacle. Even the Limitless Cursed Technique was penetrated.

The right arm with which he gripped Uchiha Obito was severed in an instant.

The scarlet Three-Tomoe Sharingan trembled violently. Taking advantage of Satoru Gojo’s injury, Uchiha Madara’s consciousness instantly seized the body. He sensed a familiar yet terrifying power.

"Truth-Seeking Orb?!"

It was the so-called true ultimate power of the ninja world, which he had only heard about from that so-called host. Now that he experienced it firsthand, that special Chakra containing every nature transformation of yin, yang, and the five elements seemed to be the very pinnacle of power.

Such a thing actually existed. Which meant… the opportunity that fellow had been waiting for would truly appear?!
