At the same time.
Kamo family residence.
Choso entered the Kamo residence to search, believing that the probability of the Star Plasma Vessel being hidden there was higher.
Therefore, Choso chose the Kamo family, while sending Uraume to the Zenin family.
But unfortunately, this time Choso chose the wrong direction. After searching the entire Kamo residence using Blood Manipulation, he was unable to find any trace of the Star Plasma Vessel.
Choso shook his head, feeling somewhat helpless.
It seems we can only wait and see what happens at Uraume's side. If it's not at the Kamo residence, then it can only be at the Zenin residence. Although the Zenin family has many sorcerers, Uraume's strength should be enough to deal with them.
Choso stood on the roof of the Kamo family's main house, gazing in the direction of the Zenin residence.
The Kamo family stirred his memories of the past, and also reminded him of Kamo Kenshin, the most wicked sorcerer.
Damned Kamo Kenshin, it's a good thing you died early, otherwise I would never let you go. For everything you did to my mother and my brothers, grinding your bones to ashes would still not be enough.
Returning to this place brought a flood of emotions.
One hundred and fifty years had passed, yet the Kamo family still stood strong in the world of jujutsu. The ancient buildings remained, but who still remembered the pain among the nine brothers?
As his emotions surged, a strong stench of blood filled the air around Choso, and he felt the impulse to destroy the Kamo family outright.
Although this was not his mission, it seemed there was no harm in plunging the jujutsu world into greater chaos.
"Who's up there?"
The patrol sorcerers of the Kamo family noticed something unusual and raised the alarm.
But the man only had time to shout before he felt a sharp pain in his chest, blood erupting as a piercing strike shot through him.
Immediately after, every Kamo clan member who rushed out was killed by Choso's Blood Manipulation the instant they appeared.
Sitting idly on the rooftop, Choso struck them down one by one, bored, as if he were playing a game of whack-a-mole.
When someone popped up, he killed them instantly.
He did this partly to vent his emotions, and partly to draw Uraume's attention at the Zenin residence.
However, Choso himself failed to realize that such actions were something he would never have done in the past.
No matter how much he hated the Kamo family, he would never kill innocent people just to vent his anger. His mother and brothers would not have approved of such behavior.
Yet now, he did it naturally, without hesitation, and without the slightest sense of discomfort.
What Choso did not know was that Sukuna's finger, implanted inside his body by Itadori Kaori, was silently influencing his consciousness.
At this moment, the Kamo residence was in complete chaos.
Kamo Shinji frowned, not knowing what was happening outside. It was not until one of the Kamo family's Grade 1 sorcerers identified the attacker that he realized who was responsible.
"It's actually Blood Manipulation!?"
Shinji's expression filled with shock and disbelief.
He had spent years trying to produce a descendant with Blood Manipulation for the Kamo family. He never imagined another sorcerer would possess Blood Manipulation—and now that person was attacking his clan.
Shinji could not understand what was happening, but one thing was certain: this man bore deep hatred toward the Kamo family and was merciless in his slaughter.
"Hurry, request aid from the General Directorate! Ask the Zenin family and the Gojo family for help!"
At this moment, Shinji could not care about his past attempts to obstruct the Gojo family. If this man continued his rampage, the entire Kamo clan might be wiped out.
For the sake of his family's survival, he had to swallow his pride.
"Yes, Young Master."
At the same time, both the Zenin family and the Gojo family received Shinji's request for help.
Gojo Kumaen and Zenin Naobito's expressions changed drastically. They had never expected that a curse user would brazenly attack the Kamo family under such circumstances.
"Blood Manipulation?!"
Neither Kumaen nor Naobito expected to hear those words at this time.
They never imagined that Blood Manipulation would appear in the hands of an enemy attacking the Kamo family. What kind of hatred drove this?
In this situation, family rivalries no longer mattered. Both the Gojo and Zenin families dispatched their strongest sorcerers.
The Gojo family sent Gojo Shunichi and Gojo Satoru.
The Zenin family sent Zenin Jinichi and Zenin Shinsuke.
…
Toji walked leisurely toward the Yorozuya, occasionally glancing at dessert shops along the way, wondering whether he should buy some strawberry daifuku for Megumi and Yuto.
But as he stood there, Zenin Shinsuke and Jinichi hurried past him.
"Hm? What happened?" Toji asked.
"The Kamo family was attacked. The clan head ordered us to provide support."
Without stopping, Jinichi's voice was carried to Toji's ears by the wind.
The Kamo family was attacked? They actually need help from the Zenin family. Pathetic.
Toji shook his head. He had no time to watch the commotion. He focused on carefully choosing desserts. It seemed this shop was a chain store, since there wasn't one near the Yorozuya.
He thought tourists would probably prefer Megumi and Yuto.
After spending five minutes picking, Toji's obsessive nature kicked in. He hesitated another five minutes before finally deciding to buy one of every kind of daifuku.
But just as he was about to pay, a powerful cursed energy burst within his perception range.
Such overwhelming chill!
