No matter how strong a person's body is, it has its limits; it's impossible to withstand infinite Cursed Energy.
After changing her line of thinking, Schwarzer quickly noticed the details.
The President seemed to be covered in a massive number of 'curses' so subtle they were almost completely imperceptible—they were the 'bonds' between him and the people of America who trusted him.
She saw that every instance of damage he took was completely dispersed through these dense connections, transforming into tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, of energy units and transferred to each individual.
Is this why he had to change his image and continuously reinforce the stereotype of 'the President'?
"[Analysis]I now understand the President's Cursed Technique. By relying on the expectations and impressions of hundreds of millions of people, he grants himself non-existent, imaginary abilities. Every person who believes in this strengthens the intensity of his technique."
"Then, by relying on these hundreds of millions of believers, he distributes the damage he receives while simultaneously nullifying it all with Cursed Energy. He can't do this alone, but with the 'help' of countless people, he is invincible."
Each instance of damage is reduced by a factor of hundreds of millions, then sent through the connected Cursed Energy wills into that infinite well of Cursed Energy—finally converging within the body of the Divine Tree.
In other words, all attacks against him are just charging the Divine Tree. The more people who trust him, the more charging cables there are, and the more damage he can withstand!
It truly is an ability that must rely on the masses—an ability that is virtually unsolvable for a normal sorcerer.
"So you're saying only an attack that can still harm him after being reduced by a factor of nearly one hundred million will have any effect?"
The system found this utterly absurd after hearing the explanation. No wonder the President wasn't worried about Sukuna and Gojo Satoru teaming up. Even if all their power was combined, they wouldn't be able to scratch him!
"Then how are they supposed to fight him? Are they just going to let the President gather all the remaining game pieces by himself?"
"[Negative]The flaw in this Cursed Technique is also obvious. As long as the 'trust' placed in him is broken, his ability will disappear."
"Proper sorcerers like Gojo Satoru definitely can't do it. But, as it happens, someone who can has just arrived."
In reality, if she were to act personally, the solution would be simple. Her attack would be powerful enough to eliminate the President and his hundreds of millions of supporters in an instant, but that would be the administrator personally stepping in to ban a player, which would be a bit unsporting.
Still, Schwarzer sometimes wondered if fate truly existed. She saw that the one person who could almost be considered the President's natural counter was about to arrive on the scene.
As for the current situation on the battlefield... Schwarzer felt a little like laughing when she saw it. It gave her a sense of déjà vu, like watching a Metapod versus Metapod battle.
The President's Cursed Technique ignored all damage. The Limitless Cursed Technique was ineffective against any damage other than spatial attacks.
Sasuke's Susanoo was a super turtle shell, with enough defensive power to tank a Tailed Beast Bomb head-on.
Kakashi, with Kamui in both eyes, could remain intangible for the entire duration with no cooldown.
The only one taking a beating...
"Are you only going to focus on me?!" Sukuna's face was ferocious. They had tried nearly every method, but none could break through the President's defense.
The President, after an initial round of attempts, focused his attacks solely on Sukuna—he couldn't damage the others.
"Hey, hey, hey, make yourselves useful, will you?!"
Where are my teammates? Help me out here!
Faced with Sukuna's demand, Kakashi tilted his head and pretended not to hear. Neither his Chidori nor his Kamui could harm their opponent.
The President's attacks started off weak and powerless but grew stronger and stronger. Taking them head-on was a bit tough, so Kakashi chose to become 'intangible,' and after that, the President couldn't be bothered to attack him anymore.
Sukuna was only a 'teammate' by chance encounter anyway. Naturally, Sasuke and Gojo Satoru wouldn't look upon him favorably; they'd rather enjoy watching him get beaten up.
The wheel behind Mahoraga's back had turned several times, fully adapting to the President's attacks, but it had only adapted to the attacks themselves.
Sukuna quickly realized that even Mahoraga couldn't comprehend and counter the fundamental nature of his opponent's ability.
The once-arrogant Sukuna was now like a punching bag, relentlessly attacked by a shadow-like figure. His opponent clearly hadn't used a Domain Expansion, yet the shadows seemed to possess a 'sure-hit' effect, never missing their mark.
If this continued, he would have no choice but to make a temporary retreat. It was infuriating, but there were no other options.
Sukuna used two hands to defend against the attacks while clapping his other two hands together, instantly swapping places with Gojo Satoru. The shadow's attack paused in mid-air, unable to penetrate his Limitless.
"After all this time, have you figured out what his Cursed Technique is?"
"I'm very sorry, but we have almost no clue."
Kakashi and Sasuke shook their heads simultaneously. The only hope seemed to be depleting the opponent's Cursed Energy, but after so long, the President's Cursed Energy showed no change, as if it were infinite.
A strategic retreat? Sukuna's reason told him it was the only option, but his heart was unwilling to leave.
He waved his hand again, and countless slashes fell upon the President, to no effect.
"You're all making quite a racket. I was bothered by the sound of demolition all the way here."
At just the right moment, an unexpected intruder appeared on the battlefield—Hiromi Higuruma!
He had followed a pillar of light and heard the demolition-like sounds from this area. In the end, he decided to get involved. He too wanted to see what this so-called 'final stage' was and why the Culling Game had been started.
Although he had obtained great power himself, too many people had died in the Culling Game. He would rather not have this power than see the world become like this.
Hiromi Higuruma saw the state of the battlefield. The President's villainous aura was overwhelming, and he was continuously beating up a red-haired man.
Based on his first impression and intuition, he immediately judged him to be the 'villain'.
The President turned his head as well. 'Fate' told him that this intruder before him posed a great threat!
If he allowed this man to act, he would die. It was the first time the President had such a premonition; even when facing the other game piece holders simultaneously, he had felt no fear.
He had to eliminate this intruder immediately!
Unlike his playful attitude when facing Sukuna and the others, he charged fiercely toward Hiromi Higuruma. He didn't need any Cursed Technique; with Cursed Energy reinforcement, his attacks were lethal to any ordinary Special Grade Sorcerer!
Hiromi Higuruma felt a sense of 'danger' flash in his mind. In a stress response, his Cursed Energy erupted, and he instantly completed the construction of his domain, unleashing it almost subconsciously.
The President, who had been attacking him, found his body stopping uncontrollably. He then found himself in a strange courtroom.
