Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: A Chance to Fix the Soul, Chakra Fruit

"The fragment from the Naruto world has been completely analyzed. I didn't expect so many surprising gains!"

"There's some incredibly good news, Host!"

Mid-air, Schwarzer carried Kakashi as she headed for Jujutsu High, when the System suddenly shouted along the way.

"[Puzzled]What news?"

The System's excited tone was very unfamiliar to her, but she could also sense that it must have made a massive discovery.

"That data contains a vast amount of information from the world of Naruto, including details on the tailed beasts and the very essence of Chakra—for instance, the Chakra Fruit."

This was beyond Schwarzer's expectations. The Chakra Fruit could drop like this? These drop rates don't feel like they're from a 2D world.

The System can consume world data and a large amount of energy to manifest things using similar concepts, a bit like the 'Idol Theory' from the world of A Certain Magical Index.

In other words, if certain conditions were met, she could obtain a Chakra Fruit—the fruit of the Divine Tree.

But then again, what use did she have for such a thing?

"Chakra is the energy produced when the Divine Tree absorbs the planet's energy and combines it with the spiritual energy of living beings."

"Its essence is life, will, and nature—a trinity of power."

"Get to the point."

Schwarzer cut off its rambling. She had no interest in listening to its lengthy explanations; she could understand all of it in an instant by accessing her database.

It was only with the System that she acted so 'real,' saying whatever she wanted without any need for pretense.

Of course, in the System's eyes, this was just her taking advantage of it. Not only could it not talk back, but it also had to do its job obediently.

'Sigh, what can I do? She's my host.'

"The essence of Cursed Energy is the power unconsciously released from human negative emotions. With the power of the Divine Tree, it can all be collected."

"In other words, you could strip the entire world of its Cursed Energy and transform it into a 'Cursed Energy Fruit'."

There's a move like that? Schwarzer's 'big-heist' radar lit up. She could never have too much Core Data.

However, if that was all, the System wouldn't have called it a massive discovery.

"Chakra and Cursed Energy are both powers related to spiritual energy. In theory, they could also be used as materials to repair the soul."

"It's just that the required amount would be enormous, making it not worth staying in this world. But now, things are different..."

Hearing this, Schwarzer instantly understood its meaning. An irrepressible, fiery emotion ignited in her eyes.

"Does that mean there's a way to repair my soul? To what extent would it be possible?"

Faced with Schwarzer's longing gaze—a sight it hadn't witnessed in probably several hundred years—the System didn't have the heart to pour cold water on her hopes, but it had to speak.

"The 'quality' of Cursed Energy and Chakra is too poor. At best, they're nothing more than a band-aid."

"In the best-case scenario, it would probably only prevent you from completely losing your emotions after your Core Data is depleted."

Only the System would dare to look down on Cursed Energy and Chakra. After all, objectively speaking, the two of them combined weren't even in the same league.

The green, flame-like substance the System used to repair Schwarzer's soul was, in fact, Spiral Power.

To be able to maintain a minimum level of emotion... For Schwarzer, this was already a huge step forward.

It meant she no longer had to keep the countdown to her Core Data's depletion constantly in her line of sight.

"What are the conditions for manifesting the Chakra Fruit?"

She asked impatiently, clearly having already made this her top priority.

"Natural energy, Cursed Energy, spiritual energy, and a vessel capable of simultaneously possessing and withstanding all three of these powers."

Such conditions were practically a targeted search. And as it happened, the world of Jujutsu Kaisen had just such a character—one she had just encountered.

The Special Grade Cursed Spirit—Hanami.

Change of plans!

Schwarzer instantly threw up a barrier in front of her to avoid causing any further harm to the already severely injured and unconscious Kakashi in her arms.

Her small figure instantly broke the sound barrier, turning into a meteor and crashing down toward Jujutsu High.

Her original plan was to have Hanami exit the stage here, and at Sasuke's hands. A twisted fate like that would have been enough for her to obtain a piece of Core Data.

But now, she had to keep it alive.

'Natural energy, Cursed Energy, the Chakra Fruit...'

It wasn't just simple travel; her processors were running at full capacity as Schwarzer tried to find the optimal solution.

...

...

A jutsu as massive as Deep Forest Emergence should theoretically have drawn everyone's attention, yet at this moment at Jujutsu High, it seemed no one had the mind to care about such a 'trivial' matter.

A massive Veil enveloped the entire campus. While Schwarzer was having her 'chat' with Obito, Hanami was already locked in battle with the Jujutsu High students.

"Damn it! What the hell is this thing? It's completely blocking the way!"

Outside Jujutsu High, the Veil, which was originally meant only to block Gojo Satoru, was for some reason also stopping the two ninja who had arrived.

These two were clearly Naruto and Sasuke, who had followed Kakashi's instructions to find Gojo Satoru at Jujutsu High.

The key issue now was that they had found Gojo Satoru, but they couldn't get into Jujutsu High.

"This is a special barrier, likely designed specifically for me. But why can't you two get in either?"

Gojo Satoru and several other teachers only realized there was an intruder when Hanami appeared inside the campus.

Although Hanami had consumed a great deal of Cursed Energy fighting Kakashi, with natural energy to replenish it, its combat strength hadn't diminished much.

The Veil, raised according to the plan, blocked Gojo Satoru, and that's when he ran into Naruto and Sasuke.

"By the way, is Kakashi-sensei really okay? He stayed behind to cover our retreat and told us to find you."

After several failed attempts to break the Veil, Naruto turned and spoke to Gojo Satoru.

Although he didn't know what Kakashi-sensei had encountered, it was clear that being told to find Gojo Satoru meant he was supposed to get reinforcements.

"Don't worry. I can still sense that unique Cursed Energy of his. He's on his way here now."

Gojo Satoru looked up at the horizon, though doing so while wearing a blindfold wasn't very convincing.

When Naruto informed him, he had noticed a pile of missed calls on his phone, all from Kakashi, of course.

However, when he called back, he reached someone else: the student he had just taken in yesterday, Schwarzer.

She informed Gojo Satoru that she had already rescued Kakashi, which served to both curry favor and avoid wasting time.

In the original story, the Veil was up for too long, which is what allowed Hanami to escape.

This time, Hanami had already been worn down beforehand, and she was also delivering a little surprise. Theoretically, these factors should be enough for Gojo Satoru to kill Hanami.

As for what that little surprise was...

Sasuke, who had been silent all this time, stared at the dark Veil. According to Gojo Satoru, a Special Grade Cursed Spirit was inside, one that could kill the members of Jujutsu High at any moment.

Whether it was out of sympathy or something else, he felt he had to do something—especially now that he had power!

"Perhaps I have a way..." Sasuke said as he stepped forward and, under the puzzled gazes of Naruto and Gojo Satoru, placed his hand on the Veil.
