“Banana—banana, banana, banana!”

The monkey in front of her kept making "banana" sounds, reminding the Star of the video she had just watched, and she couldn't help but start humming.

“Banana, banana, banana, banana ~ banana, banana, banana, banana ~”

As a natural-born "banana" singer, the Star's singing instantly attracted countless adorable monkeys, who hopped and skipped around her. The Star also felt that the scene before her seemed a bit blurry, with countless sleeping banana monkeys floating in the air...

“Banana, banana! Banana, banana, banana, banana ~ banana, banana, banana, banana ~”

What a wonderful yet harmonious atmosphere! Regardless, the Star felt she should join in, embracing the monkeys' delightful "banana sounds" and banana scent—

Jujutsu Kaisen.

“So noisy.”

Ryomen Sukuna glared at the group of monkey-like creatures in Celestial Screen with a hint of displeasure. These oddly shaped, dull-eyed monkeys chattered incessantly, their banana-like sounds creating a noise that echoed across Japan.

“She must have fallen into some strange dream again, right? So many monkeys... Could it be a trap?”

“Hmph, besides Sunday, who else could set a trap for Penacony? It’s most likely the Family’s doing. Isn’t that monkey’s banana (toy) doll on her room’s sofa?”

A sudden "banana" word naturally slipped from his lips. Sukuna himself seemed oblivious, still staring at Celestial Screen with a look of disgust.

“Hmm? Wait... Sukuna, what did you just say?”

Kenjaku, who was leisurely sipping a smoothie in a rocking chair, suddenly opened his eyes. He had clearly heard the "discordant" "banana" word in Sukuna’s recent statement.

However, Sukuna merely kept a cold expression. Annoyed by the monkeys, he had no intention of answering Kenjaku.

“Well... never mind. Perhaps I banana (misheard) it. Something seems off...”

The sound of these monkeys carried an indescribable penetrative power, seemingly able to pierce eardrums and reach the mind, yet it was difficult to capture this eerie sensation with cursed energy. Although it hadn't affected him yet.

He just felt a tickling sensation on his tongue... It must just be a psychological illusion, right?

Kenjaku took a big gulp of smoothie, using the cold, sweet sensation to suppress this faint anomaly. The chilling feeling on his tongue brought his mood back to normal.

He handed the empty cup behind him: “Uraume, another one!”

“Banana...”

The Star was about to sing along with the little monkeys when she was suddenly interrupted by a voice from above.

“By the Great Storm God!!”

The dashing pink-haired girl looked down at the Star and the group of monkeys beside her, her silver teeth clenched.

“What a terrifying, critical moment. At this hour of the ox, the majestic skyscraper will become the starting point of a spectacular hunt!”

A can of graffiti spray paint was tossed high into the air, and at the moment of its descent, the girl caught it steadily. Wielding a massive, chaotic blade, she moved like the wind, nimbly weaving between buildings, subduing all Memetic Entities lurking in the darkness and rescuing one startled night owl after another.

“Yo yo ~ Under the starry sky, evil spirits abound, helpless people struggle in the shadows. The wordless ninjutsu is written in blood and tears, the selfless ninja is embraced by the night.”

All enemies defeated by the young girl would burst into colorful dyes, as if her battles were not life-and-death struggles, but rather a wild and unrestrained modern art performance. Walls, floors, and even the monsters themselves became her canvas, sprayed with various vibrant graffiti.

“Amidst the chaotic tide, all villains are obliterated; before dawn, dazzling sparks ignite.”

“YO (yo)! Chaotic Ninja · AKA Rappa, greetings!”

Rappa appeared with a perfect landing pose. She looked up, revealing a confident smile, but just as she was about to speak—

“Pop!”

A can of graffiti spray paint that she had thrown earlier accurately hit her on the head, making a crisp sound like "a good head makes good music."

“Ah—ow, ow ow ow!!”

—

Naruto.

“Oh yeah—!!!”

A joyous shout almost blew off the conference room windows. Killer B, who had been sitting behind the Raikage, boredly sketching in a notebook, suddenly stood up, excitedly waving his arms and legs.

“Big Brother! Did you see it! Did you hear it!” Killer B excitedly pointed at the pink-haired girl in Celestial Screen, “RAP! It’s RAP! Real, soulful RAP! On Penacony! Sure enough... there are still people who know what’s up in this universe! Yeah!”

He was so excited that he even performed a short freestyle rap on the spot as a response:

“Yo yo ~ little Rappa girl over there, your rhythm is strong!”

“Killer B is here, I approve of your rap!”

“Rhymes like shuriken, Flow shines like Lightning Release!”

“The universe is so vast, kindred spirits are hard to tame, today is just a good day! Baby ~”

“...”

The entire conference room was silent. The other four Kage, along with their escorts, looked at Killer B, who was immersed in his own rap, with puzzled expressions.

Veins bulged on the Raikage A’s forehead, his fists clenched, cracking. He roared: “Bee! You banana (idiot)! You have to know when to speak up! Sit down! This is during the Five Kage Summit! It’s not your concert!”

Mei Terumī couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle: “Heh heh, it seems he’s found a kindred spirit from another world. Eh, was that just now...”

She glanced at the Raikage, but it seemed no one else had noticed that subtle abruptness in his voice—

Perhaps, it was just an illusion from being overly tired recently?

“Honestly... do we want to continue the meeting or not...” Onoki also sighed helplessly, but his gaze swept over Rappa’s strange weapon, and he narrowed his eyes slightly: “Chaotic Ninja... Does she also use ninjutsu?”

—

Rappa rubbed her forehead and glared at the monkeys behind the Star: “What a cunning trap! Not only are evil spirits everywhere, but there are also hidden weapons flying all over the place!”

“You threw it yourself, didn’t you?!”

Rappa shook her head: “Not so. You are too kind, not knowing that these evil spirits manipulated its landing point with sorcery.”

“Banana, banana?”

The monkeys all looked at Rappa in unison, their "wisdom-filled" faces making the young girl instantly displeased.

“All evil spirits, quickly withdraw. Otherwise, I will have you experience the power of Chaotic · Ninjutsu.”

However, the monkeys didn't understand at all and continued to make incomprehensible "banana, banana, banana" sounds.

Rappa frowned: “This... impossible, how can this be?”

“You understood?”

Rappa looked shocked: “I... actually can’t communicate with these evil spirits!”

“...” The Star was speechless.
