After a pause, Jogo curiously watched the Dragon God, who continued looking down at the gravel beneath his feet, and asked, "Mahito, are you planning to resurrect someone else? Did something happen to the people who went to Tokyo Jujutsu High? Didn't Kenjaku say that Tengen has no combat power at all? Could he have been lying?"
Thinking of Kenjaku, who had returned miserably with only his head left, the Dragon God mocked, "That guy calculated everything, yet he still failed to foresee the outcome and escaped with only his head. However, the others are fine; no one else died in this operation except for you."
"Then what are you doing now?"
"The one I am resurrecting is not part of our inner circle," the Dragon God said meaningfully. "I didn't dare think of it before, but now I can do it. I swear, even Satoru couldn't possibly know how much his combination of Six Eyes and Limitless has enhanced me. It's terrifying; even I feel that I am frighteningly strong now."
Jogo looked bewildered. "Huh?"
"Jogo, you should understand the feeling of being hit by Unlimited Void, right?" the Dragon God asked.
Jogo's expression shifted as he sighed. "Only by personally experiencing Unlimited Void can one realize how strong Gojo Satoru truly is. At that moment, I felt like I could see everything clearly—the dust floating in the air, the internal structure of that dust, and even the structure within that structure. But I couldn't move, because the overwhelming influx of information filled every possible direction of thought. I became a human puppet capable only of contemplating dust."
The Dragon God nodded.
"Exactly. Unlimited Void is the ultimate expansion of Limitless. Limitless is the absolute mastery over space; whether it's compression or extension within space, Limitless can achieve it. The information you saw regarding the internal structure of the dust is a result of that. All the information of Limitless..."
"...is stuffed into your brain without exception, turning you into a vegetable who can only process these meaningless structures."
"Any thinking lifeform must filter information from the world. For instance, we can easily conclude that 1 × 5 = 5, but we rarely calculate it as 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 5 because it takes up too much cognitive redundancy."
"To an extent, the thinking efficiency of the brain far surpasses the world itself. However, Limitless can perfectly present the world's original form."
"Just as Jogo said, when he saw a speck of dust, he could simultaneously delve deeper into its structure, and then deeper into the structure of that structure, infinitely, without ever reaching an end."
"1 + 1 = 2."
"1 can be divided into 0.5 + 0.5. 0.5 can be divided into 0.2 + 0.3. 0.2 can be divided into 0.1 + 0.1."
"0.1 can be divided into 0.05 + 0.05."
"Dividing infinitely like this—that is the essence of Limitless."
"This is why it's extremely difficult to control Limitless without the Six Eyes. The Six Eyes grant a sorcerer the ability to precisely manipulate Cursed Energy, which is necessary to keep Limitless in check. Otherwise, a normal Jujutsu Sorcerer using Limitless would drive themselves insane!"
"Unlimited Void can dump this endless density of information entirely onto its target. In the face of such data processing, how could any sentient being in this world possibly withstand it? This is what created Unlimited Void's reputation for being invincible."
"Everyone knows about Unlimited Void, and everyone knows they absolutely cannot withstand it. It is a nuclear weapon against all sentient life!"
The Dragon God said proudly, "But a god is different."
Jogo asked blankly, "A god?"
"Wearing the Dragon God armor, I have barely touched the Realm of a god," the Dragon God said, suppressing his excitement. "A god's information processing capability is entirely different from a human's. A god is not merely a physical lifeform; a god has stepped into the true essence of the world. A god's processing power is the world's processing power! The infinite division of information from Limitless is a dimensional strike to any sentient life, but to a god, it is nourishing medicine, for a god needs Limitless to satisfy their own perception of the world!"
In the original work, Kenjaku once said that all humans in Japan would undergo a super-redundant assimilation with Tengen, who had already become a higher existence, to give birth to a Great Cursed Spirit.
The key point wasn't the Cursed Spirit, but Tengen, who had "already become a higher existence." This "higher existence" was a "god."
In the original work, Tengen once explained why she did not become a god. She said that if she truly became a higher existence, even she herself would not know what she might do. If she made a single misjudgment, she, who controlled the great Japanese barrier, could instantly kill all humans in Japan.
A god has the capacity to fully process the great Japanese barrier! This is something Tengen, as a human, could never achieve. Even after the original Tengen was absorbed by the original Kenjaku, she still lacked the ability to process the great barrier alone, but a Tengen who had become a god could.
This means a god's basic ability is near-infinite information processing. In other words, Limitless!
It wasn't until he truly possessed the Six Eyes and Limitless that Mahito could confirm this: both the Six Eyes and Limitless must be parts cast off by Tengen, parts of a true demigod's status! Although Gojo Satoru's physical structure is human, strictly speaking, he is not human... he is a modern Living God!
And now that the Dragon God also possessed the Six Eyes and Limitless, he could do much more. Things he could never achieve before were now within his reach.
For example:
Distinguishing the true difference between the Cursed Energy residuals of Kenjaku and Geto Suguru!
It was emphasized many times in the original work that after Kenjaku possessed Geto Suguru, his Cursed Energy residuals were identical to Geto Suguru's. When Mei Mei saw Kenjaku, although logic told her it couldn't be Geto Suguru, the narration's psychological description showed her constantly denying her own logic. Judging by a Jujutsu Sorcerer's professional standards, Kenjaku was Geto Suguru, the real deal.
Even Gojo Satoru couldn't distinguish them at first. The reason Gojo Satoru confirmed that it wasn't Geto Suguru wasn't because he saw a flaw, but because a purely intuitive warning told him the person before him wasn't his best friend Geto Suguru, but something else.
Kenjaku's possession is flawless in the Jujutsu World. In other words, if Kenjaku were to die now and Mahito took the Cursed Energy residuals from that body to fish for a person in the Soul Torrent, the one he fished out would definitely not be Geto Suguru, but Kenjaku.
No one can separate them—except a god. A god wielding Limitless!
Mahito specifically used the [Soul Creation Dragon Spirit Body] here, combined with the Six Eyes and Limitless, so he could infinitely divide the Cursed Energy residuals belonging to Kenjaku and Geto Suguru. By dividing them infinitely like this, even Cursed Energy residuals that appeared flawless in the Jujutsu World would reveal a crack.
By seizing this crack, Mahito could resurrect Gojo Satoru's best friend, Geto Suguru!
Swish—!
The Dragon God leaned down and thrust his hand into the white gravel, then suddenly pulled upward. In the Dragon God's gauntlet, he held a man's hand.
Geto Suguru's soul was pulled out from the white gravel by the Dragon God.
"Kenjaku, you must be up to some little tricks, right?" the Dragon God sneered. "That's quite perfect... I'm doing some little tricks of my own."
"The real Geto Suguru will be the one to deal with you, Kenjaku."
