"Secret techniques are meant to be used eventually. The form of abilities cannot be hidden forever." Zenji spoke nonchalantly.
Moreover, his research had already made some progress.
At the ruins fortress on the border of the Land of Fire.
A tailed beast-like creature, resembling a mollusk, writhed within a circular barrier three meters in diameter.
"It really does look like a Cursed Spirit."
Zenji looked up at the Zero-Tails.
A dense dark chakra—like black mist—condensed within the body of this Tailed Beast.
Any dark will and emotions in the hearts of all personnel within the entire ruins would be converted into this special chakra.
Zenji stretched out his right hand. Black chakra surged from his palm like smoke.
More extreme and pure. And more suitable for Cursed Spirits.
He deduced internally.
To use the world's source of darkness as a template. To become the source of dark chakra just like the source of chakra itself...
Then one must at least possess the ability to absorb the dark fears from the hearts of all living beings in the entire world.
Unfortunately, the key to Cursed Spirits being able to absorb corresponding curses and negative emotions is the rules of the Jujutsu Kaisen world.
The ability to condense curses and negative emotions—which is the essence of Cursed Spirits—is not strong enough to affect the entire world.
I need to optimize and strengthen this system.
Zenji's perception immediately focused on the light clusters of the three Disaster Curses: Jogo, Hanami, and Dagon. They corresponded to the earth, the forest, and the ocean, respectively.
Let's use them for practice first.
After thinking for a moment, he bit his finger and performed the Summoning Jutsu.
A cloud of smoke rose and dispersed. A small piece of the God Tree, surrounded by a barrier, appeared before his eyes.
Without the enhancement of world rules, a physical core was needed to strengthen the overall ability's influence.
The fragment of the God Tree was the best possible material.
Zenji looked over the light clusters of the three Disaster Curses and finally stopped at the one corresponding to the forest.
With the God Tree fragment as material, it should be most compatible with the forest's curse mark.
A force suddenly appeared within the circular barrier, striking the God Tree fragment and directly splitting it into three.
The barrier simultaneously separated, forming three smaller circular barriers—each containing a God Tree fragment in the center.
Selecting one piece, Zenji closed his eyes and pondered the plan in his mind once more.
After a moment, he opened his eyes and immediately set to work.
The final plan—integrating techniques such as the Zero-Tails, the Disaster Curse mark, Yin-Yang Release, and Tailed Beast structure—was carved out.
A fist-sized orb hovered within the barrier. Its surface was densely covered with runes and marks.
The entire barrier merged with the orb, making it the core node.
The orb emitted faint fluctuations. A dark green light manifested like spreading ink.
An invisible influence radiated outward in all directions.
Ten meters... one hundred meters... one kilometer... ultimately stopping at a range of three kilometers.
Within this range, the fear of forests and trees of all intelligent beings was extracted and converted into an exclusive dark chakra.
"This range is truly too small."
Zenji frowned deeply.
If only looking at the range, this was a complete failure.
Without the assistance of world rules, it's still too difficult to affect the entire world.
He was not discouraged by this.
Research is like this. There are various difficult problems, but as long as they are solved one by one, progress is made.
Zenji looked at the other two orbs. The overall structure could still be further optimized.
Moreover, plants absorb nutrients from the earth and also need to absorb water. Using the God Tree fragment as material was perfectly viable.
After an unknown amount of time, the three orbs enveloped in barriers were completed. The diameter of the barriers had expanded by several rings, reaching a range of five meters.
"Using barriers is indeed a solution. The area of effect has increased tenfold—reaching a diameter of thirty kilometers. Unfortunately, it's still not enough."
Zenji frowned deeply.
He pondered over a solution.
The range can actually be increased further. As long as a massive barrier system is constructed, it might be difficult to cover the entire world, but it's enough to cover a large country.
Thinking of this, Zenji shook his head slightly.
Unfortunately, compared to the goal of covering the entire world, it fell far short.
Covering the entire world? The ultimate dark chakra.
Zenji looked down at his feet. His eyes suddenly flickered.
Shadows? Oni Masks.
He suddenly thought of an ability similar to the Ten Shadows Technique.
The ultimate move of the Oni Masks: Ultimate Darkness.
Once released, it directly covers the entire world.
I can completely draw inspiration from this, and...
Zenji's expression brightened—then instantly collapsed.
Without the information light cluster of the Oni Masks, even if he tried to imitate it, he would only get a specious, weakened version.
Because fundamentally, he lacked the technology to cover the world.
This was the most crucial problem.
After all this, I can only find a solution within Naruto.
Zenji scratched his head in frustration.
The only technique in Naruto capable of achieving this level was the Ten-Tails. And it had to be after collecting the nine great Tailed Beasts and transforming into the God Tree state to have the ability to affect the entire world.
If it really becomes the God Tree, I wouldn't be able to use—
Zenji stopped mid-thought as something flashed through his mind.
His eyes grew increasingly bright.
"The Ten-Tails. The God Tree. The nine great Tailed Beasts. Brilliant. Truly brilliant."
Zenji laughed excitedly.
There was corresponding technology that could be borrowed.
Besides—isn't darkness most adept at parasitic transformation?
Create nine Dark Masks. Have the nine Tailed Beasts wear them. Integrate them into their bodies to form a dark side.
When they merge into the Ten-Tails and become the God Tree, they will directly fuse to form the dark side of the Ten-Tails God Tree.
Then, when the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki uses the Rinne Sharingan to cast the Infinite Tsukuyomi, it can ride the momentum to affect the entire world.
Directly absorbing and condensing the ultimate source of dark chakra.
The plan is feasible. But if I do it this way, wouldn't I have to wait for the original plot to develop?
Zenji's brow immediately furrowed deeply.
He didn't have the patience for that. The only reason he wasn't standing out now was that he wasn't strong enough to face the combined strength of the entire village.
There were still fifteen or sixteen years before the original plot began. Let alone that long—in six or seven years, Zenji's strength would definitely reach the super Kage level. Perhaps even earlier.
With super Kage-level strength, Zenji absolutely couldn't tolerate continuing to be so submissive.
He would definitely flip the table directly.
Let alone wait fifteen or sixteen years.
It seems that after I overturn Konoha, I need to actively push forward the Akatsuki's plan. Make the Ten-Tails and the Infinite Tsukuyomi appear faster.
Zenji narrowed his eyes.
If that was the case, then he needed to become stronger even faster.
If he didn't have Six Paths-level strength when the plan started, he would crash and burn directly.
I have a plan for dark chakra. What's left is light chakra.
Zenji immediately focused his gaze on Mahoraga's light cluster.
Mahoraga was not a Cursed Spirit. Using him as a template and starting point for light chakra was an excellent plan.
Actually, as long as the source of dark chakra was successfully transformed, a Reverse Cursed Technique plus the Tiger Talisman could immediately form the source of light chakra.
But that was too risky. He couldn't pin his hopes on just one plan.
