Dimensional Rift
The Land of Tea wasn't a place Gojo Satoru had expected to visit on his "vacation." Compared to the chaos of Konoha, the region was known for its tranquility, lush plantations, and quaint villages. However, there was an unmistakable feeling in the air that his Six Eyes detected with alarming clarity: cursed energy.
Upon arrival, Gojo teleported to a dense forest, where the concentration of energy was strongest. It was a dark and malevolent energy, unlike the chakra he knew in this world. It was dense, sticky, and in some places, he could see distortions in space, as if the fabric of reality were being ripped apart by an invisible force.
"My, my," Gojo muttered to himself, his blindfold slightly lifted for better analysis. "This isn't just an errant curse. This is a leak. As if someone had left the door between dimensions open."
He could sense the trail of the cursed energy, following it to its source: a point in the forest where the air vibrated with supernatural intensity. There, the "special-grade curse" the system referred to manifested itself.
It was a grotesque creature, made of fear and resentment, that attacked anything that came near it, absorbing its life energy. The few local ninjas who had attempted to deal with it had been easily overpowered.
"What an unfortunate creature," Gojo commented in his normal tone, though his eyes were sharp and calculating. "It seems reality is tearing itself apart in this place. The cursed energy of my world is seeping in here. Interesting."
The special-grade curse launched itself at Gojo with a brutal scream. Its attacks were swift and brutal, but Gojo barely bothered to dodge them. His Infinity caused the curse's blows to simply slow and disappear before reaching him.
"Let's make this quick," Gojo said, stretching slightly. "I don't have all day to play with low-level creatures, not when there's a dimensional rift in between."
With one fluid, devastating motion, Gojo activated his technique. "Curse Reversal: Blue." An incomprehensibly dense sphere of energy formed in his hand, drawing everything toward it with a gravitational pull. The special-grade curse was helplessly dragged away, its twisted form compressed to a point before disappearing completely, erased from existence.
The impact of the "Blue" not only eradicated the curse, but also caused a chain reaction at the point of filtration. Space twisted, the air violently distorted, and then, with an almost inaudible snap, the dimensional rift closed.
The atmosphere in the forest cleared, and the cursed energy dissipated, as if it had never been there.
[Critical Plot Mission Completed!]
[Objective: Investigate cursed energy anomalies in the Land of Tea and confirm the existence of a special-grade curse.]
[Success Reward: 20,000 Dimension Points (DP) and a 'Schematic Blueprint: Reverse Curse Technique'.]
Gojo smiled. "Twenty thousand points. Not bad. And the Schematic Blueprint... This will come in handy." The blueprint materialized in his hand: an ancient scroll, but the information within it was about a technique that reversed cursed energy into healing energy. A double-edged sword for sorcerers.
So cursed energy from my world is seeping in here, Gojo thought, as he put the scroll away. That explains the sudden outbreaks. It's not something this world is equipped to handle. It means either someone is trying to open portals, or the very fabric of reality is weakening.
The implication was clear: the ninja world, despite its powerful shinobi and Bijuu, was vulnerable to threats of an entirely different nature. And Gojo Satoru was, for now, the only one who could perceive and effectively combat them.
His "plot mission" had been completed, but the truth of what he had discovered was much deeper and more troubling.
With the rift sealed and the curse eradicated, Gojo felt his presence was no longer needed in the Land of Tea. It was time to return to Konoha. He wanted to see how his "Blonde" was doing with the old pervert's training. Besides, he had a growing curiosity about how this leak of cursed energy might affect the ninja world in the long run. The stakes were higher than just maintaining the "canonical plot."
