Looking at the chaotic battlefield.
For some reason, Tamamo-no-Mae recalled a previous conversation with Uro Sakurako.
At that time, Uro Sakurako had asked her if she stood a chance against the entire Jujutsu World, or even the entire country.
Tamamo-no-Mae had confidently told Uro Sakurako that she would win.
But at this moment, looking at the increasingly chaotic battlefield.
Tamamo-no-Mae realized how slim her chances of winning actually were.
"Why... why is it like this?"
Tamamo-no-Mae looked at everything before her in disbelief.
More than eight hundred years ago, this scene had also occurred.
Empress Fujiwara, the consort of Emperor Toba, had framed her while Emperor Toba was gravely ill.
After failing in the political struggle, Empress Fujiwara had repeatedly dispatched troops in Emperor Toba's name to conquer her.
It was the same back then, the entire battlefield was shrouded in flames and chaos.
Dazzling attacks appeared from all directions.
In the end, Tamamo-no-Mae, dragging her heavily wounded body, fled the battlefield filled with hatred.
She died in a desolate wilderness.
After her death, Tamamo-no-Mae, filled with immense resentment, transformed into a Special Grade Cursed Spirit.
"Could it be... is history going to repeat itself?"
Tamamo-no-Mae murmured, her voice tinged with despair.
She couldn't understand, 1 million Cursed Spirits, what a terrifying number that was.
Logically, even if it took time, these Cursed Spirits should have been able to wear down and kill these thousand-plus people.
Why were they losing?
Was their Cursed Energy infinite?
Tamamo-no-Mae could never have imagined that she would actually encounter two people who were not lacking in Cursed Energy at all.
One was Satoru Gojo.
Satoru Gojo had a lot of Cursed Energy, but it wasn't the most.
Yuta Okkotsu had more Cursed Energy than Satoru Gojo.
And Sukuna, that outlier king of cheat patches, was even more so.
The key lay in Satoru Gojo's Six Eyes.
The Six Eyes possessed incredibly terrifying observational abilities, not only allowing for detailed observation and prediction of Cursed Energy and its trajectory.
It also enabled the user to perform precise Cursed Energy manipulation.
Only those with the Six Eyes could maximize the potential of the Gojo Family's ancestral Infinity Cursed Technique, which could interfere at the atomic level.
Therefore, Satoru Gojo's efficiency in using Cursed Energy was frighteningly high.
In many situations, the Cursed Energy Satoru Gojo consumed in battle was less than the Cursed Energy he recovered.
Even in the battle against Sukuna.
Satoru Gojo, relying on the precise manipulation brought by the Six Eyes.
He repeatedly and accurately destroyed and repaired the part of the brain using the Cursed Technique.
And with this, he was able to extremely quickly repair the burnout of the Cursed Technique.
Thus, Satoru Gojo had no fear of prolonged battles.
The other was Eiji.
In terms of sheer Cursed Energy, Eiji had more than Satoru Gojo.
But that wasn't the main point.
Because even if Eiji's Cursed Energy was greater, it couldn't compare to 1 million Cursed Spirits.
The key was the Holy Grail.
After the war began, Medea had been controlling the Holy Grail to absorb the residual Cursed Energy left by dissipated Cursed Spirits on the battlefield.
She converted it and provided it to Eiji and several Heroic Spirits.
This necromancer-style approach, where the more you die, the stronger I get, made Eiji completely unafraid of attrition warfare.
In small-scale engagements, my Cursed Energy was in no way inferior to yours.
And there was also the amount normally stored in the Holy Grail.
In a large-scale war like this, I would have a continuous supply of Cursed Energy until all your Cursed Spirits were dead.
Why would I be afraid of fighting a war of attrition with you?
Faced with Tamamo-no-Mae's cursed spirit army, Eiji declared, "I'll take on ten!"
'Should I run?'
Tamamo-no-Mae couldn't help but consider retreating.
She looked up at the massive barrier that covered over ten kilometers.
'Where could I possibly escape to?'
The others were one thing.
But as the primary culprit in this war, a great sinner who attempted to overthrow the Jujutsu World.
Tamamo-no-Mae knew countless eyes were on her.
The others were one thing.
But what about Master Tengen?
Master Tengen hadn't participated in the fight at all.
Tamamo-no-Mae, who didn't know much about Master Tengen, guessed that they were currently hiding somewhere within the barrier.
They would surely control the barrier to stop her if she tried to escape.
Still in Tokyo, Master Tengen watched the live broadcast of the rare, large-scale war unfolding within the barrier.
"Hmm? I'm no longer human, so why do I feel like I need to sneeze..."
After a moment of thought, Master Tengen gave up thinking.
Watching the show was more important.
Ever since becoming a shut-in at Kurokoshi-gu, Master Tengen hadn't left for hundreds of years.
Such grand spectacles were incredibly rare.
If not for the fact that they were no longer human, and their body was made of barriers, Master Tengen would have asked Masamichi Yaga, who was waiting outside, to bring in some popcorn and soda.
From their observations, it seemed popular for young people these days to eat these while watching shows.
The view returned to the battlefield.
Master Tengen watched the cursed spirit army begin to show signs of collapse.
With no one to disturb her, Tamamo-no-Mae, who quickly repaired her Cursed Technique after it was severed, had to dispatch numerous clones to supervise.
Tamamo-no-Mae's clones exuded a terrifying aura, driving the cursed spirits back.
"This tail is quite pretty, I'll touch it."
As Tamamo-no-Mae focused all her attention on controlling the cursed spirits and consuming the Jujutsu Sorcerers' Cursed Energy, a slender, fair hand reached out and touched Tamamo-no-Mae's fox tail.
"Wow~ it's so smooth, can I have some to make a blanket?"
Tamamo-no-Mae instantly bristled.
"Pervert, take your hand off me!"
Tamamo-no-Mae raised her right hand high and slapped Satoru Gojo with a resounding smack.
"Oho, kowa kowa."
Satoru Gojo tilted his head back, dodging the slap.
"What's wrong with just touching it? You won't get pregnant, you're so stingy~"
Satoru Gojo looked at Tamamo-no-Mae with a mournful gaze, as if Tamamo-no-Mae, not him, was the one whose tail had been touched, like a cat.
"Get lost!"
Tamamo-no-Mae was furious, flames erupting all over her.
The intensely burning flames directly engulfed Satoru Gojo's head.
Satoru Gojo's slender form instantly burst into flames like a torch.
Satoru Gojo had earned the title of Flame Head Captain ten years ahead of schedule through his own abilities.
It remained to be seen whether Satoru Gojo would accept the hair-perming service from "Pot Treasure" when it was offered ten years later, after this experience.
"Burn to ashes for me!"
More flames surged towards Satoru Gojo, completely engulfing him.
Tamamo-no-Mae's immense pressure, accumulated from the unfavorable situation, was released at this moment.
"Next up is..."
Tamamo-no-Mae turned to look at her next target.
"Ah, is it over already? I haven't roasted enough yet."
"Huh?"
Tamamo-no-Mae turned around in astonishment.
Satoru Gojo's figure flickered in and out of the flames.
"Is this Infinity? That's cheating!"
Tamamo-no-Mae launched a stronger attack.
"Cursed Technique Reversal: Red."
A crimson light exploded.
Tamamo-no-Mae's flames were repelled by the repulsive force, scattering in all directions.
"So fast!"
As Tamamo-no-Mae watched in surprise.
Satoru Gojo's right hand, glowing red, reached her forehead.
"Naughty children get a flick on the forehead~"
Duang~
Tamamo-no-Mae felt a sharp pain on her forehead, and then her entire body turned into a meteor, flying towards the ground.
"Eh~ feels good, the sound is crisp too. Better than Shoko's or Altoria's heads."
Satoru Gojo commented with satisfaction.
The next moment, in the large crater where Tamamo-no-Mae fell.
Vengeful cursed energy continuously spread outwards. Tamamo-no-Mae fully activated the Cursed Stone within her body, actively beginning to transform into a Cursed Spirit.
"If that's the case, then I shall devour all the cursed spirits and their remnants in this place."
"All of you, die!"
Under the mad roar, a cursed energy storm released by the Cursed Stone swept across the entire battlefield.
