"What the hell is Kiradio?" Makoto frowned.
Oh wait.
So that's the kind of "Dio" it is.'
(Note: "Dio" is Chinese slang for dick/penis).
Never mind then.
Makoto turned a corner slightly and finally understood the bizarre changes in this world's version of Killer B.
"Brother! Aren't my eight massive tentacles enough to fill your empty heart?! Aren't my Lightning Lariat's thick, muscular arms enough to satisfy you?! Why the hell do you still need to find other people?!"
After [Kiradio] landed heavily on the ground, he immediately burst into dramatic tears like a heartbroken tough guy, wildly swaying his eight giant octopus tails while crying and aggressively shouting at the [Raikage].
"Get lost! Put those filthy tails away, they absolutely disgust me!" the [Raikage] snapped back, completely unsympathetic to his brother's romantic plight.
"Wait." [Kiradio] suddenly gasped, wiping a tear. "Brother... have you changed your mind?!"
He was instantly overjoyed!
"No. I'm just saying now is the time to actually use your power to crush these invaders.... they reject me after all T-T."
"What?! How dare you insult my brother by rejecting his love! I'll kill you all!" [Kiradio] instantly became furiously enraged at Makoto's group, violently erupting with dense red Tailed Beast Chakra all over his body.
But just as [Kiradio] was dramatically erupting with chakra to defend his brother's honor, Uchiha Hikari casually stepped forward and violently smashed him away with a massive Susanoo arm.
CRASH!
The moment she physically hit [Kiradio], her primary mission was actually half-accomplished.
The Eight Thousand Spears Mark had been successfully planted on him during the impact, all that remained was the actual absorption and conversion process.
It's just that draining an entire Eight-Tails would be somewhat lengthy.
"It seems you've divided the work," the [Raikage] smirked, cracking his knuckles as he glared at Makoto.
"You're staying behind to fight me alone? Don't you dare try to run away!"
"Nah, Why dont you take a look around," Makoto casually waved his hand.
"What? ...Huh? Wait!"
The [Raikage] suddenly noticed something chilling.
Over on the other side of the temple, where his brother [Kiradio] had just been smashed away...
'Why was it so completely quiet?'
'Shouldn't the violent commotion from a Tailed Beast clash be deafening?!'
'Wait'
'The opponent was actually silently stealing the Eight-Tails' raw power?!'
'So this was the terrifying kind of enemy Yugito had encountered!'
'No wonder she was defeated so quickly!'
"Dio! Hold on, I'm coming to save you!" The [Raikage] instantly abandoned his macho posturing and bolted.
Whoosh—
"NANIIIII?!" The [Raikage] suddenly gasped.
He had just sprinted forward, but he was instantly standing right back where he started.
"You've already fallen under my Infinite Loop Forbidden Technique," Makoto said calmly, not having moved an inch.
"You are forever unable to reach the truth of leaving this designated area."
"NANI?! Impossible!" The [Raikage] roared, his body flaring with maximum lightning chakra.
He sprinted again.
'Time stops.'
Makoto casually stands up, manually drags the frozen Raikage by his collar right back to his original starting position, walks back and comfortably sits down again.
Then time resumes flowing.
"NANIIII?!" The [Raikage] screamed, completely bewildered.
He was back at the starting line again!
What his opponent said was actually true!
This guy actually possessed such a terrifying, god-like ninjutsu?!
"Impossible... absolutely impossible!"
However...
"What?!"
"We..."
"Damn it!"
The [Raikage] and his two aides, [Darui] and [Shii], all simultaneously discovered they had been teleported right back to their original positions once again.
"My deepest apologies, but you literally cannot reach the truth of attacking me," Makoto spoke again, looking extremely bored.
The [Raikage] had just been preparing to escape directly to save his brother.
Yet, he was violently rubber-banded back.
His opponent hadn't even made a single hand sign or physical move, heavily indicating that this terrifying ninjutsu was like an absolute Sealing Jutsu—once activated, it would remain permanently active unless specifically dispelled!
Was he doomed to be trapped in this tiny invisible box for life?!
Honestly, it was a good thing Makoto was just toying with them.
Otherwise, even with the Raikage's legendary Lightning Armor offering god-tier defense, he absolutely couldn't withstand a single serious punch from Makoto with all his stacked cheat abilities.
The Time Stop ability wasn't even the most terrifying part; what was truly terrifying was that Time Stop was just one of his many broken abilities!
"Damn it." The [Raikage] sweated bullets.
He absolutely had to break the curse of this bizarre ninjutsu.
'Wait... got it!'
...
Thirty seconds later.
ZAP!
A blinding flash of light suddenly erupted inside the "cursed" zone, and a new figure materialized out of thin air.
The two Hidden Cloud kunoichi up in the audience seats were very familiar with this specific person.
"Mabui?! How the hell did she get here?!" Yugito was completely shocked to see the Raikage's secretary suddenly appear.
"Wait, is it the Heavenly Transfer Jutsu?! Can the Heavenly Transfer Jutsu in this cursed world actually transport living beings safely?!"
The Heavenly Transfer Jutsu, an S-rank Secret Technique of the Hidden Cloud Village, could normally only transport inanimate objects like intelligence documents or supplies at the literal speed of light.
If a normal living person entered the transfer beam, their physical body would be violently torn apart by the sheer friction and velocity.
There were historically only two exceptions to this lethal rule: the Raikage, who could survive it by using his ultimate Lightning Armor and Tsunade, who could survive it by forcefully out-healing the absolute cellular destruction using her Creation Rebirth.
But clearly, something was fundamentally wrong with the jutsu in this world.
[Mabui] obviously didn't have the Lightning Armor, nor did she possess the Strength of a Hundred Seal.
Was the Heavenly Transfer Jutsu in this world really completely harmless to the human body?
"This is honestly just way too much," Samui muttered darkly.
"What's wrong?" Yugito followed Samui's intensely jealous gaze and immediately felt a massive headache coming on.
It turned out that the [Mabui] in this world actually possessed tits even larger than Samui's in the real world!
This made Samui feel incredibly unbalanced.
Why did she, who was famously large in reality, have to become a complete flat-chested cutting board in this Limited Tsukuyomi World?!
While [Mabui], who wasn't exactly small in the real world either, had miraculously become even larger?!
Was there any actual justice in this universe?!
Why the hell was there such blatant, targeted differential treatment?!
"Sorry to drag you into this, Mabui. Transfer me out of this cursed space, immediately!" The [Raikage] ordered.
"I understand, Raikage-sama." [Mabui] began weaving the complex hand signs.
Up in the audience seats, Orochimaru suddenly spoke up.
He was also highly familiar with the Hidden Cloud's Heavenly Transfer Jutsu and deeply understood its scientific mechanics.
Now, he had just discovered the abnormal changes in the Jutsu's logic within this Limited Tsukuyomi World.
"The Heavenly Transfer Jutsu hasn't magically become harmless," Orochimaru chuckled darkly.
"Instead, the massive physical damage it inflicts has somehow been inverted into healing and proliferation!"
"Healing? If this world's Heavenly Transfer Jutsu works in complete reverse according to the original damage intensity, wouldn't the current healing effect basically be equivalent to a permanent Creation Rebirth that can heal others without the lifespan-reduction side effect?!" Tsunade followed Orochimaru's scientific analysis while still looking downward intently.
"Could it be that the Raikage wants Mabui to provide infinite auxiliary healing, relying on a temporarily immortal body to fight Makoto desperately? But that doesn't make any sense either. Makoto just needs to eliminate Mabui first."
"Tsunade, I need to correct several glaring mistakes in your logic," Orochimaru shook his head, looking like a disappointed professor.
"First, this isn't just basic 'healing'—you missed one crucial word I said. Second, while there might not be lifespan-consumption side effects in this timeline, there are indeed other horrifying side effects—the proliferation you completely overlooked."
"Finally, please don't blindly project real-world character personalities onto these.... variants. Just like how Kushina would never think her precious Minato was a furry pervert who wanted to bang the Nine-Tails? The exact same logic goes for this Raikage—he's not preparing for a desperate, heroic fight at all. He's simply using the Heavenly Transfer Jutsu to completely coward out and escape Makoto's 'curse'."
Poke, poke.
"Hmm?"
Just as Orochimaru finished speaking, while Tsunade was still deep in thought, she felt a small hand poking her arm.
Looking down, it was the little girl from the Hyuga clan.
"What's wrong, Hanabi?" Tsunade showed a kind, grandmotherly smile.
"What exactly does 'proliferation' mean, Lady Tsunade? Does it mean breast enlargement? Did Lady Tsunade get hers through proliferation?" Hanabi asked with genuine, innocent curiosity.
CRACK.
Hearing the last part, Tsunade accidentally violently crushed the corner of the solid wood table in front of her.
But she still forced a strained, terrifying smile.
"Of course not, sweetie. Mine are completely, 100% natural. As for proliferation..."
Tsunade looked downward at the battlefield, her expression turning dead-serious.
"It basically means over-treatment. When you're severely injured, after the healing jutsu repairs your open wound, a 'proliferation' glitch makes your body continue growing excess flesh and blood uncontrollably. If proliferation continues completely unchecked... you might eventually mutate into a massive, expanding ball of cancerous meat that finally violently explodes into a puddle of bloody water."
"Ah?! Is it really that terrifying?!" Hanabi shrank her neck back in horror.
"Exactly." Tsunade smiled and gently patted Hanabi's head.
Looking at Hanabi made Tsunade briefly think of her own two disciples back home.
She just desperately hoped one particular disciple (Sakura) wouldn't be too insanely obsessed with her own body proportions.
Otherwise, she might stupidly wish to be hit by this cursed Heavenly Transfer Jutsu just once.
...
Down below.
ZAP!
The Heavenly Transfer Jutsu activated, and the [Raikage] was instantly beamed out of Makoto's Time Stop trap, vanishing into the sky.
"Sigh." [Mabui] collapsed to her knees, sweating profusely.
"Huh? Why doesn't Mabui just use the Heavenly Transfer Jutsu to instantly send herself away to safety too?" Yugito asked from the audience seats, highly curious.
"Yeah, could the only side effect really just be her chest getting bigger? That's still vastly better than losing her life to the Akatsuki," Samui also furrowed her brows in deep thought.
On the other side of the stands, Hanabi innocently asked Tsunade the exact same question.
"No. If my guess is correct, she has already reached her absolute limit. If she uses the Heavenly Transfer Jutsu on herself again, she will enter a true state of genetic collapse—exactly what Tsunade speculated earlier. She will violently mutate into a giant exploding meatball," Orochimaru helped explain the grim reality.
"Orochimaru is correct," Tsunade nodded. "Look at the Raikage's left and right hands down there—those two aides also originally arrived with the Raikage just now, highly likely using the Heavenly Transfer Jutsu to get here so quickly. But after seeing the Raikage leave, they didn't immediately step forward to beg Mabui to send them away as well. Clearly, it's because they've already used it once today, and their bodies absolutely cannot handle a second trip."
"But those two men don't seem to have grown bigger anywhere on their bodies?" Fuu tilted her head and asked innocently.
"Perhaps the 'proliferation' is just hidden somewhere you can't normally see with clothes on," Tsunade replied completely calmly, taking a sip of her drink.
'Is that so?'
Fuu looked over at Hanabi.
Hanabi immediately nodded, enthusiastically forming the hand signs.
"Byakugan, open!"
After activating her Byakugan, Hanabi eagerly looked down at the two men.
She could clearly see the internal chakra pathways of the two aides below.
If they had undergone severe physical augmentation, then their internal chakra pathways would also be forcefully expanded and warped in those specific areas...
"Oh! Indeed!"
After instantly noticing the abnormality, Hanabi deactivated her Byakugan, her face burning bright red.
She was only using the basic Byakugan to observe their chakra pathways, not the fully perverted, x-ray perspective version like Neji's in this Limited Tsukuyomi World!
But what she had just seen in their chakra pathways still absolutely shocked her innocent mind to its core.
"Hanabi, what's wrong?! What did you see?! Say something!" Fuu aggressively grabbed Hanabi and shook her.
"Mmmph! Mmph!" Hanabi shook her head, refusing to speak a single word about the trauma she had just witnessed.
"Sigh. Let me explain," Tsunade's lips curled slightly in amusement.
These young girls really were way too immature.
Why be so intensely hesitant about basic human anatomy?
As a prestigious Byakugan inheritor of the Hyuga clan, Hanabi should act more like a seasoned medical ninja—completely unemotional about any part of the human body!
"Everyone already knows about the incredibly dirty, intimate relationship between the Raikage and his 'left and right hands' in this Limited Tsukuyomi World..." Tsunade began.
"Wait." Orochimaru suddenly interrupted her.
"What is it now?"
"Tsunade, that's blatant prejudice. You can't just call their relationship 'dirty' simply because it's between two people of the same gender," Orochimaru lectured smoothly.
"In this absolutely degenerate world, compared to the horrific romantic relationships between humans and literal Tailed Beasts, what those three men have could honestly be considered beautiful, wholesome pure love."
Orochimaru had a very distinct, "you need to view this differently" tone to his voice.
Actually, Orochimaru's true intention was quite clear.
He absolutely couldn't allow the concept of "bonds" to become completely synonymous with the word "dirty" in everyone's minds!
Because he still desperately needed to watch Sasuke's development back in the real world, and Sasuke strictly needed to maintain his deep, obsessive "bond" with Naruto to awaken his true power!
Even though Orochimaru knew defending this relationship might heavily offend Uchiha Hikari, he was willing to take the risk.
What if the "new ninja world" that Uchiha Hikari longed to create arrived prematurely, and the entire ninja world violently rejected the concept of bonds entirely?!
What if Sasuke became apprehensive about being called a pervert and stopped maintaining his bond with Naruto?!
Not only would the ninja world permanently lose a crucial Rinnegan-level combat power, but Orochimaru's life-long dream of watching Sasuke's ultimate development would also be completely shattered!
"Get lost, you freak," Tsunade scoffed, facing Orochimaru's passionate argument with just two blunt words before turning back to continue explaining the situation to the young girls.
"Anyway, the specific place where those two men were violently 'augmented' by the jutsu is..." Tsunade leaned in and whispered the anatomical truth.
"It's honestly not surprising that due to their... intimate relationship with the Raikage, the proliferation has reached deep inside their bodies. Actually, during early infancy, those specific organs are naturally located inside the body from the start. It's said some hardcore taijutsu masters even proactively train secret techniques to manually retract those 'things' back up into their bodies to completely prevent lethal enemy ambushes."
As Tsunade bluntly explained male anatomy to the two blushing young girls, the others nearby also completely quieted down, eavesdropping on her bizarre medical explanation.
'Oh! So that's how it is!'
Everyone had a sudden realization.
"Then why don't they just cut them off?" Hanabi asked with a completely innocent expression, posing a rather terrifying question. (she's evil!)
"Huh?!" Tsunade was momentarily stunned by the sheer brutality of the child.
"To save their own lives from the exploding meatball glitch, can't those three just manually amputate those augmented things? They clearly have the courage to die in battle for their village, but they don't have the courage to just live without them?!" Hanabi asked logically.
"Tch." Tsunade drew a sharp breath, wincing sympathetically.
Because Hanabi's proposed brutal method was actually 100% feasible.
They could even theoretically just continue healing the amputation wounds using the Heavenly Transfer Jutsu afterward!
Unless there were some unknown, deeply cursed mechanisms of the Heavenly Transfer Jutsu they weren't fully aware of yet... why wouldn't those three just do this to escape the trap?!
