Chapter 287: Limitless VS Dual Kamui (4K+)
Bai Cangshu stood in his pure white Mental space, one hand pressed on the Heart Throne, using the support of that single hand to keep himself suspended in mid-air.
By touching the Heart Throne, he could perceive the situation outside his body. At this moment, a smirk played on his lips, and his eyelids drooped, revealing a look of disdain.
As for the two individuals he had forcibly crammed into the Heart Throne at the same time, despite their differing mindsets before, their expressions were surprisingly uniform at this moment.
Bai Cangshu, Gojo Satoru, and Uchiha Madara were all arrogant individuals; how could they possibly accept Ping Zhongshi, a puppet of the golden law, bestowing honors upon them?
Uchiha Madara no longer obstructed Gojo Satoru from using Cursed Energy. Limitless fully unfolded. Ping Zhongshi, who was rushing towards Bai Cangshu's body, wanting to crown him king, found that he could not touch the other party no matter what.
The distance between them could never truly disappear.
He felt a slight confusion; Tao Bai Bai was clearly still fighting "for the golden law," yet why did he reject his good intentions…
The divine Ping Zhongshi had already sensed the ominous power in his chest, which was slowly awakening as he received numerous blessings and powers from the golden law.
That woman named [Heaven's Will] had planted a hidden danger within his body!
But Ping Zhongshi was neither joyful nor sorrowful. He simply maintained the posture of reaching out to Tao Bai Bai. Suddenly, Tao Bai Bai, who was standing on the ground, turned his head.
His eyes met Ping Zhongshi's. In one eye, scarlet tomoe rotated, evolving from two tomoe to three tomoe, and at this moment, it seemed to show a tendency to change further; in the other eye, blue sky and white clouds seemed to swirl, unfathomably deep.
Although he was looking down at Tao Bai Bai from above, Ping Zhongshi felt as if the other party was looking down at him.
That arrogance emanating from his soul was incredibly clear.
As the three tomoe rotated, the divine Ping Zhongshi suddenly froze. A dilapidated town appeared before his eyes, as if it had just experienced war.
Ping Zhongshi instinctively passed through the town, then waded through a river. By a waterfall, he found a wooden house. Outside the wooden house, a few small, tattered cloth clothes hung solitarily.
The divine Ping Zhongshi trembled all over. The golden halo in his pupils vibrated violently, as if about to shatter, and the golden radiance on his body began to dissipate in large quantities.
This scene made Uchiha Madara look down upon this so-called [divine being] even more. In the end, he was nothing more than an ordinary person who had fortunately obtained some kind of power; his Mental fortitude was simply insufficient to support him in becoming a strong individual.
Gojo Satoru was even more indifferent. He didn't care what kind of existence Ping Zhongshi was. After the defeat of the Cursed Energy World, he had shed the greatest restraint he had since birth — as the strongest in the Cursed Energy World, he needed to protect the weak.
The current Gojo Satoru was completely loyal to himself. He could finally display all the arrogance, capriciousness, and playful characteristics deep within his bones without reservation.
Such a mortal could not arouse his interest at all.
Intense Cursed Energy surged. Before Chakra extraction reached a certain level, and before Uchiha Madara's soul had imprinted itself more deeply on this body, he was far more accustomed to operating this body than Uchiha Madara.
"After all, I've used this body more than once, haven't I~"
Gojo Satoru spoke mockingly. As Uchiha Madara fully refined Chakra from the body and enhanced his eye power, nothing prevented him from completely controlling most of the body's functions.
He unscrupulously teased his host. After realizing that Bai Cangshu's Mental fortitude was as tough as steel, Gojo Satoru knew that he would have difficulty truly seizing this body, but he could seize every opportunity to tease and mock the other party.
Because he had figured it out: his host was an extremely greedy fellow. In order to fully imprint his [Limitless], the other party would absolutely not rashly expel him.
In the Mental space, Bai Cangshu heard Gojo Satoru's pointed words and was not angry. Gojo Satoru was not wrong; in the face of the pursuit of power, he completely disregarded these harmless jokes.
"Next up, it's you, isn't it, red-eyed kid? Your spatial ability has been quite a bother to my poor host…"
Uchiha Obito saw Tao Bai Bai's expression and demeanor change drastically again. The arrogant Uchiha Madara seemed to have disappeared, replaced by another frivolous fellow.
In that eye like the blue sky and white clouds, a power flowed that even he could not discern.
Buzz!
Amidst spatial distortion, Gojo Satoru's figure instantly vanished. He appeared behind Obito, forming a hand into a gun, and pointed it out. Cursed Energy at his fingertip was converted into positive energy, and intense gravitational force instantly erupted as repulsive force.
[Red]!
The air instantly twisted. The intense repulsive shockwave was invisible and colorless, but because of its property of distorting everything, that area of space looked like an energy ball formed by mixing various light rays. The shockwave burst forth with a roar.
Uchiha Obito was shocked. The distorted space passed through his body.
Boom! Boom! Boom!...
That repulsive shockwave passed through Uchiha Obito's phased body, violently striking the dark rocks on the outer edge of the meteorite crater, instantly shattering the rocks. The intense and distorted repulsive force instantly blasted a crater over three meters in diameter into the ground, and continued forward, cutting through the lake in the meteorite crater, breaking through the forest on the opposite side of the lake, and disappearing from view.
The exaggerated attack range and destructive power of this strike made Uchiha Obito's eyelids twitch. Moreover, he realized that the one currently controlling Tao Bai Bai's body possessed "Space-Time Ninjutsu"!
Obito frowned. He couldn't quite figure out Tao Bai Bai's situation. It seemed not only had Uchiha Madara's soul entered his body, but there were other souls there too?!
Gojo Satoru watched as his [Red] distorted space, yet the person in front of him still seemed untouchable, dodging the attack.
He propped his chin with his hand.
"So, your spatial ability is quite high-level. Even my Limitless couldn't touch it. Interesting…"
Gojo Satoru admitted that he had previously underestimated this red-eyed kid who could make his host have no good way to deal with him. Although the other party's Mental fortitude and combat intelligence seemed very ordinary, this ability was undoubtedly powerful.
Uchiha Obito waved both hands, throwing shuriken while forming hand seals. Wooden spikes appeared again. He had to figure out what information this current "Tao Bai Bai" possessed.
The other party's combat methods were completely different from what Tao Bai Bai had previously displayed.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Pfft!
The shuriken and wooden spikes both struck the passive defense of [Limitless]. These attacks were completely unable to reach Bai Cangshu's body, so Gojo Satoru didn't even bother to dodge or defend.
Obito immediately caught this point. The one currently controlling Tao Bai Bai's body possessed a spatial ability similar to his Kamui phasing, but at the same time, his combat style was no longer as wild as Tao Bai Bai's before.
Whether the body still possessed the characteristic of being unharmed by blades and swords was questionable.
Uchiha Obito quickly analyzed the information, and at the same time, his gaze focused again on the other party's head.
At this moment, Gojo Satoru detected the spatial distortion. He instantly clasped his hands together, and his figure vanished.
He reappeared nearly a hundred meters away.
Gojo Satoru's [Six Eyes] also possessed the characteristic of a 360-degree unobstructed view, and possessed extremely strong spatial perception ability, which allowed him to teleport at will without worrying about getting stuck in a wall during teleportation.
Obito noticed the special action of the other party clasping his hands together before teleporting, and he also gained new insight. The other party's Space-Time Ninjutsu was very convenient, but to teleport, he couldn't do it completely without hand seals like Tao Bai Bai before; there were still some necessary hand seals required to perform the ability.
The two continuously launched various attacks, but neither could hit due to the other's spatial ability. Kamui's attacks were not swift enough, while Gojo Satoru's attacks could not affect Uchiha Obito, who was phasing himself.
The two continuously gathered information about each other during their entanglement.
On the other side, Qi La Bi and Eight-tailed Ox Ghost climbed up from a distance and found that the Elden Beast had disappeared, leaving only the extremely tall red-haired man floating in the air, his body trembling constantly.
"This is… caught in a genjutsu?!"
Qi La Bi and Ox Ghost found it hard to imagine that a monster with such powerful energy could be directly controlled by a single genjutsu. Qi La and his elder brother Ai, who was in the distance, exchanged glances. Both realized that this was probably the best time to slay this monster.
The next moment, the fully Tailed Beast Transformation of Eight-tailed Ox Ghost rapidly shrunk, exiting the full Tailed Beast Transformation state. Qi La Bi was one of the few [Perfect Jinchuriki], and would not lose control due to full Tailed Beast Transformation. At this moment, he actually voluntarily reverted to the form of borrowing Tailed Beast Chakra.
A red Chakra cloak appeared on Qi La Bi's body, while Ai activated his strongest Lightning Release Armor. The two, like two streaks of lightning, moved rapidly, appearing on either side of Ping Zhongshi, and then charged violently.
[Lariat]!
Two figures violently tore through the air, appearing simultaneously in front and behind the divine Ping Zhongshi. Violent impact force erupted at the same time. Two thick arms, covered in Lightning Release Chakra, were like two sharp blades.
They instantly struck the front and back of Ping Zhongshi's neck.
Pfft!
Golden blood gushed out. Ping Zhongshi's head flew into the air, slowly closing his eyes as it rotated, and tears streamed down his face.
The next moment, amidst the flowing golden radiance, the Elden Beast reappeared.
A golden greatsword slowly condensed in the Elden Beast's hand.
Ping Zhongshi once again experienced a beautiful illusionary dream. He knew it was an illusion, but he willingly allowed himself to be controlled by it.
He only considered it the last moments of warmth he enjoyed as a human, allowing him to see those three people again.
"Mother, Haruka, Hana… Farewell…"
Roar!
The colossal beast raised the golden law sword high, and a massive magic circle appeared in the sky. Golden radiance shot up into the sky, as if a gaze was cast down from beyond the heavens at this moment.
The golden magic circle instantly illuminated the entire sky, and the Golden Tree began its furious growth once again. From space, the planet's appearance had already begun to change.
On the emerald and blue intertwined planet, golden light, starting from a small point, began to occupy a vast area and spread little by little.
…
In the Mental space, the Shinigami floated unconsciously. He could not sense the outside situation, but as a native deity, he experienced a certain sensation when the world was being destroyed.
Bai Cangshu stood before the throne, looking at the other party's belly.
"Cut open your belly and give me that Nine-Tails Chakra as well!"
In the real world, Gojo Satoru's figure constantly flickered, and Uchiha Obito also appeared and disappeared intermittently. Both seemed to be attacking thin air.
As the two continuously fought, the terrain was extensively destroyed, and their battle location also became increasingly deviated. They even missed the scene where Qi La Bi and Ai teamed up to sever Ping Zhongshi's head.
Suddenly, after Uchiha Obito's figure twisted and disappeared, he did not reappear.
Gojo Satoru pondered for a moment and appeared at the spot where the other party had just vanished.
Even though Bai Cangshu, that incompetent host, had not given him information about Kamui, he had deduced the characteristics of the other party's ability through very short combat trials.
The other party likely possessed the ability to teleport himself and others. Teleporting others' bodies caused great damage, while teleporting himself avoided all damage.
Furthermore, the priority of this spatial ability was extremely high; at least, his [Limitless]'s control over space could not disrupt the other party's teleportation ability.
However, this ability was not that fast to activate, thus, there were flaws. And facing someone like him who could instantly teleport at any time, the other party would find it difficult to attack him.
The most important point…
Gojo Satoru's smile was undisguised. He had discovered the other party's biggest weakness — a lack of combat intelligence!
While he was thinking, Uchiha Obito had already reappeared. The two were almost overlapping, occupying the same space.
Uchiha Obito reached out to grab "Tao Bai Bai's" body. As long as he could touch the other party's body, he could instantly teleport Tao Bai Bai into his Kamui dimension!
Obito's Sharingan completely captured Tao Bai Bai's movements. He was certain that the other party's hands were far apart at this moment, making it impossible to activate instant movement.
His body instantly solidified from its phased state, and he touched Tao Bai Bai's shoulder. At this moment, Obito's heart swelled with excitement.
He won!
But he couldn't see Bai Cangshu, whose back was to him, smiling even more broadly under Gojo Satoru's control.
He deliberately exposed this weakness for one reason — a single decisive blow!
He had no intention of activating instant movement. At this moment, he formed a hand seal with his right hand.
[Domain Expansion: Limitless Void]!
Dark Cursed Energy instantly gushed out, and a barrier centered on Bai Cangshu's body enveloped everything around it.
Uchiha Obito, who had touched Bai Cangshu's body and should have won the battle by activating Kamui, froze in place.
Countless information, countless images, countless scents flooded his brain, so much so that his mind simply couldn't function.
He merely needed to move his mind, activate his ability, and he would have won. But he couldn't even form that single thought.
The overwhelming information completely rigidified him, and all his bodily functions crashed at this moment.
Gojo Satoru turned around, exhaling a white mist from his mouth. To be honest, with the current strength of his technique imprinted on this body, performing this move was extremely strenuous.
But in the end, he completed the Domain Expansion at the most opportune moment.
Gojo Satoru walked in front of Uchiha Obito, reaching out and grabbing the other party's head. The feeling of actually touching the other party's body made the smile on his lips spread even wider.
"Ha~ Not enough combat intelligence, red-eyed kid."
He began to exert force with his hand. This body's quality, far surpassing his original body's, was undeniably displayed at this moment. With just a slight exertion of force, he felt the other party's neck begin to tear.
Pfft!
Blood began to gush out.
A hint of purple appeared in his eyes. The impact of the Killing Intent Ripple made Gojo Satoru's heart stir. He stopped playing and tore with force in his hand.
Pfft!
The blue-white Six Eyes suddenly constricted. A dark spiral longsword pierced from outside the [Limitless Void], completely ignoring Cursed Energy and all obstacles, even piercing through [Limitless].
The right arm he was gripping from Uchiha Obito was instantly severed.
The scarlet three-tomoe Sharingan trembled violently at this moment. Uchiha Madara's consciousness, taking advantage of Gojo Satoru's injury, instantly took over the body. He felt a familiar and terrifying power.
"Truth-Seeking Ball?!"
That was something he had only heard about from that so-called host, the true ultimate power of the Shinobi World. Now experiencing it firsthand, that special Chakra, encompassing all nature transformations of Yin and Yang and the five elements, seemed to be the epitome of power itself.
Such a thing actually existed, which meant… the opportunity that guy was waiting for would really appear?!
