----------------------------------------------------------------------
The three of them keep trading punches.
Megumi moves his Tonfa to hit Noritoshi's head, but he dodges it and punches back, shattering the Tonfa.
Two black lines appeared on Noritoshi, but he sensed them and immediately backed off.
"Fwish!Fwish!" Sliced marks appeared on the wall.
'This again!' Noritoshi backed off for a few meters.
"A Shikigami user who can hold his own in close combat... How valuable! You've grown, that makes me happy," Noritoshi said to
"Why are you acting familiar to me?" Megumi asked
"It's sympathy," Noritoshi said. "You will one day become the pillar that supports the big Three Families. I... Intend to kill Itadori Yuji!" He added
"By Principal Gakuganji's order?" Megumi asked
"No. This is my decision, as a member of the Kamo family and the big three families... I believe this is the right decision. You should also understand." Noritoshi answered, "You and I are the same." He added
"No, we're not," Megumi denied.
"Yes, we are."
"No, we're not!"
'Did I become invincible or something?' Sasori feels excluded. 'Well, things like this make me glad I'm not from the big three families'
"Please... You should bring that kind of stuff up with Maki, I no longer have any connection with the Zen'in family. Besides, I've never thought of myself as doing the right thing, actually, I'm sorry, I don't care if I'm right or wrong, I only believe in my conscience! I will follow my conscience and save people, if you disagree with that, then... Let's agree to curse each other!" Megumi said
All of a sudden, a Shikigami appeared behind Noritoshi.
'A Shikigami! It was still around?!' Noritoshi thought
"Pshh"
But the Shikigami is just being called back by Megumi.
'He used a wounded Shikigami as a decoy?!' Noritoshi thought
One black line appeared where Noritoshi stood.
"Fwis!"
"Boom!"
Making Noritoshi stuck in that hole
"This?!"
"This uses a lot of Cursed energy, so I can only summon it once, it only recently surrendered to me." Megumi makes a hand sign of an elephant, "Max Elephant."
And the elephant Shikigami appeared.
'It's a large taget! I have to initiate the attack!!" Noritoshi thought
But before he attacked, water came out of the elephant's trunk. The water is so much that it pushes Noritoshi out of the building.
'No, I'm wide open now! It's coming!' Noritoshi thought
Megumi makes the bird hand sign Nue."
Nue the fly towards falling Noritoshi and stunt him.
Noritoshi forced himself to move, pulling a blood bag from his sleeve.
'Blood manipulation--'
"Fwish!"
But before it hit Nue, all the blood bags were cut in half.
'Sasori!' Noritoshi thought
At this point, all three of them were outside the building.
"I can't afford to lose!!!" Noritoshi prepared to attack again.
But out of nowhere, shadows loom over them, and they see a growing tree or wood.
"Huh?!"
"What is that?!" Megumi said
"Run!!!" Sasori grabs Both Megumi and Noritoshi and runs to get away from them.
"Inumaki senpai?!" Megumi said
Inumaki, seeing them still too close
"RUN AWAY!" Inumaki used his CT.
After hearing that all three of them suddenly ran faster,
-Cursed Spirit Juzo Kumiya-
"Getting exciting, huh?" He said, "But cursed spirits don't leave anything behind when they die, so I can't make anything from them..."
"Hup" Juzo swings his axe.
"Krak" nail stuck in the ground
"Can I?!"
"And then... um... Oh, right that."
Juzo starts to chant, "Emerge from darkness, blacker than darkness, purify that which is impure."
After he finished his chant, a curtain started to appear.
"Oh, there it is! Looking forward to that clothes rack..."
-Back To Sasori, Megumi, Inumaki, And Noritoshi-
"Why is there a cursed spirit here? Whose curtain is that?" Noritoshi asked
"It's probably coming from whoever is working with this cursed spirit," Sasori said.
"Koff" Inumaki cough
"Huh? You know something?" Noritoshi asked Sasori
"I think it's the Special-Grade that attacked Gojo-sensei before," Sasori answered. "It matches the description."
"Tuna mayo," Inumaki said to Megumi.
"You're right, you should call Gojo-sensei?" Sasori added
"Wait... A second." Noritoshi was confused at how Sasori understood that. "You can understand what he's saying?" he asked.
Megumi pulls out his phone and starts to call Gojo.
"Does it matter right now?" Megumi said, "It might use Domain Expansion on us, we need to contact Gojo-sensei and retre-"
The cursed spirit suddenly appeared in front of them and swung at Megumi's phone, shattering it.
"Don't Move!"
The cursed spirit's movement halted, and all four jumped back.
Noritoshi takes out a blood bag. "Blood manipulation"
"Slicing Exorcism"
The blood turned into chakram. The chakram rotated and flew towards Hanami, it sliced the side of his face, but the attack left no damage.
"Vwoom!" Nue crashed into Hanami from the sky.
At the same time, a cursed energy appeared under Inumaki's foot, seeing this, Sasori run and pushing Inumaki out of the way.
"Senpai!" The cursed energy enveloped Sasori and transferred him to the middle of the forest.
-Sasori POV-
All of a sudden, I'm in the middle of the forest.
'Seeing as I'm still inside the curtain, I'm guessing I'm still near the event area'
I suddenly heard a voice.
"You're finally here."
I turned back and saw a cursed spirit in a white kimono.
'Special-Grade' I thought
"It's rare to see two Specia-Grade at the same place. Do you have a name?" I asked
"Hahaha! My name is Rui, and I will be the last thing you will remember before you die," He said.
'Let's make this quick! I need to go and help the others.'
I start to run towards him, but I feel something in my neck.
"Swish!"
I duck, dodging what seems to be a thread.
"Thread?"
"Yes, My Cursed Technique allowed me to manipulate threads freely." He said, "I don't know if you notice, but my threads are all over this forest."
"hAHhaHAa! I'm going to use this thread to control your body and make you kill all of your friends," He said in a taunting tone. "And you're going to die remembering their faces when they kill you!"
I jump back off after he keeps attacking me using his threads.
'These trees are getting annoying'
"Dismantle"
Black lines appeared on all the trees around me.
"Boom!"
"Krak!"
"Fwush!"
trees around are gone in an instant.
"You! What did you do!!"
"Shut up! Just be grateful I didn't aim it at you, I need you to test something, so just stay still," I said, remembering something about my CT, or rather, Sukuna CT.
"How dare a lowly human like you speak like that to me!" Threads coming out of his body
Threads flew at crazy speed, cutting whatever was left behind me as I dodged his attack.
'should I? This is a good chance to test it.... I leave everything to you guys' I just have to trust them.
-Flashback A Few Weeks Ago-
"ARgh!" My head feels like it's going to explode.
A bunch of information is cramping inside my head.
"Hu hu hu" I catch my breath and just shocked at what I just learned.
I then sit on the chair.
"Dismantle and Cleave" I only know about "Dismantle" so why suddenly do I know about the other one....
'If my guess is right, then when I fight Sukuna, I'm not just copying his "Dismantle" But his whole CT, which is "Dismantle" A basic attack that only targets inanimate objects, and "Cleave" A slashing attack that adjusts itself depending on the target's toughness and cursed energy level to cut them down in one fell swoop.'
"Hmm..."
I tap my foot on the floor, trying to put this new technique to use.
'So "Cleave" can be directly aimed at a cursed spirit or any target for that matter, but it uses more CE, but "Cleave" cuts more cleanly. This is really useful if I don't have any buildings or trees around me.' I just chuckled when I said the last sentence.
Now about the last information that I got, it seems "Verdandi" granted me the ability to copy 2 CT's, and every time I copy their CT, I get a permanent boost for my CE. Since I copied Sukuna CT, I can copy one more. I need to think this through very carefully since this will be permanent, so who's CT should I copy... Megumi "Ten Shadows Technique", Inumaki-senpai "Cursed-Speech", the students from Kyoto.... Or maybe Gojo-sensei "Limitless". Whatever it is, let's leave it. For now, let's focus on "Cleave""
-Flashback END-
After I cut another thread that was coming towards me, my right hand started to make a claw shape.
"Cleave"
"Swish," I appeared behind him.
"WH-" Before he finished, I had already cut his body into different pieces.
"Thud"
"Thud"
"Thud"
His body, or, should I say, parts of his body, fell to the ground.
I then turned to see it.
"Hum... It does slice more cleanly." I nod.
"Well, time to find the other Special-Grade, maybe he will be more of a challenge," I said.
I then ran, trying to find the rest.
