Lin Ke discovered that Wind Release: Great Breakthrough could affect external objects and began testing whether its changes could persist. He then visited End Naruto, who asked him to arrange Rashomon through the Ninja Alliance rather than bypass its procedures.

• Lin Ke cast Great Breakthrough on a pebble and found that the technique could affect external objects.

• Lin Ke found Senju Tobirama, Tsunade, and Hatake Kakashi occupied with work, while Nara Shikaku welcomed him and asked how Shikamaru was doing.
• Nara Shikaku explained that the Ninja Alliance had focused on preventing war and letting ninja villages govern themselves, but Final Chapter Konoha's arrival meant the Executive Committee would need broader membership and clearer departments.
• Lin Ke left Nara Shikaku to return to work and complained to Utakata that he should have stayed to train and that he still worried about Experiment Zero One and Zero Two.

At an izakaya, Tsunade warned Lin Ke that his altered cells could prolong his growth period, and they discussed Orochimaru, Sage Transformation, and the risks of further experimentation. Tsunade revealed that animals implanted with degraded Original Body cells were producing powerful, intelligent humanoid mutants, and Lin Ke decided to investigate them the next day.

• Tsunade told Lin Ke that his cells had changed and that his growth period might be extended indefinitely, so he agreed to use the Delicate Illness Extraction Technique less often.
• Lin Ke told Tsunade that he had sent Orochimaru off, and Tsunade asked whether Lin Ke could speed up someone else's growth or would consider Sage Transformation experiments.
• Lin Ke declined to pursue Sage Transformation for now and asked Tsunade how the animals implanted with degraded Original Body cells were doing.
• Tsunade explained that the modified animals were difficult to breed and that some female test subjects had mutated into strong, intelligent humanoid forms.

Later, Senju Tobirama summoned Lin Ke for a serious talk about his plans to confront the Ōtsutsuki crisis, but Lin Ke kept steering the conversation toward the mutated test subjects.
