"It was good talking with you, Tengen-chan. But don't make a habit of getting in my way, or I don't guarantee I'll be happy to play anymore,"
Gojo smirked as he spoke to Tengen, reaching up and wrapping his bandages around his eyes again, his hair defying gravity.
"Your threat is very clear and understood, Satoru Gojo. And do not worry about little old me, I only did this because killing those Higher-ups meant no people to continue maintaining the order of the Jujutsu Society without the Three Great clans fighting, or even going to war over the positions."
Tengen spoke against, this time, plenty more carefully.
"And you should know this very well, descendant of Michizane Sugawara. You are also hailed from the Gojo clan, after all."
Gojo smiled at Tengen's words without a care. He shrugged his shoulders as he finished wrapping his eyes, the flow of information significantly blocked.
But even then, Gojo could feel that he needed something better to block his sight since the Six Eyes is constantly improving. The intake of information overloads his brain if exposed to too much.
"After what I'll do today, no clans will take up the position of Higher-ups. In fact, no such things as Higher-ups will remain after today," Gojo replied.
"Because I am not alone anymore. I got people who can help me share the burden together now," Gojo finished muttering to himself, the figures of his students flashing through his mind, and even Hakari joined the queue.
"We shall see this future you want, Satoru Gojo," Tengen spoke, a hint of curiosity in her tone about the future Satoru Gojo wants to achieve.
"We shall see,"
[With Akira and the gang...]
"Yo, Panda. Did you and Inumaki find anything useful?" Akira spoke to his phone as he looked around the area.
Mere seconds ago, the vision distorted, revealing that they were in front of the gate of Tokyo Jujutsu High, walking in circles around the compound and led by their nose.
Akira felt his forehead throb in anger.
"Yeah, Inumaki and I just found that we're actually halfway to the location of the Higher-ups... But I am sorry, Akira. I can't continue this, I can only help you with the location, or my old man would be disappointed in me,"
Panda's distressed voice sounded from the other end of the phone, causing Akira to remain silent.
"Don't worry, Panda. Your help in searching was plentiful. You can stay there and wait for us, no need to fight or anything," Akira said as he stood up from the boulder, stretching his joints.
"Okay, we'll wait here," Pnada replied before ending the call. Akira placed his phone in his pocket before turning to the location where Panda was.
"You two, make sure to keep up with me, especially you, Maki." Turning to Yuka and Maki, Akira grinned before vanishing from the place, leaving the two to catch up.
Maki and Yuka clashed eyes before both of them vanished as well, following in Akira's trail.
Swoosh!
The two crossed the entire compound in seconds, with Maki leaving Yuka behind as she used Mach Movement continuously, increasing her burst speed.
But Yuka was not worried.
"Projection Sorcery!"
Boom!
Maki stumbled as Yuka shot past her, a blur to her own eyes. Yuka's figure gained distance, shooting into the forest faster than even Naoya at full speed.
"Damn it! Using Projection Sorcery on top of her crazy, cursed energy reinforcement makes her even faster than Naoya!" Maki cursed under her breath as she watched Yuka's back get further and further, until she vanished from her vision.
"Tch!"
Swoosh!
The sound of someone catching up entered Akira's ears, causing him to grin in satisfaction as he turned his head back slightly, catching the excited face of Yuka as she continuously used Projection Sorcery, increasing her speed slightly with every use of the cursed technique.
And Yuka also doesn't have a time limit on the amount of usage for the copied cursed techniques since Rika takes the full brunt of the overload instead of Yuka.
This Rika is also not a vessel or Shikigami, but a full-powered Vengeful spirit stronger than any cursed spirit alive now or in the future.
Rika's RCT is so potent that any brain damage Yuka would get from using multiple cursed techniques at the same time, she could heal within seconds.
Plus, Rika acts as an external storage for copied cursed techniques, so Yuka's brain does not get overwhelmed by having more than 3 cursed techniques copied.
Even someone like Kenjaku, with his broken cursed technique, could only hold two cursed techniques besides his original Body Hopping technique.
"Akira, I am going to surpass you in speed!" Yuka shouted after Akira as she constantly built her speed and momentum wiht Projection Sorcery, mapping and planning her movement into 24 frames.
"Good!" Akira replied without jealousy or any resentment.
He was glad that Yuka was getting stronger. It meant he could be less worried about her getting killed by someone in the future.
Swoosh!
The two ran through the forest, avoiding or jumping off trees.
In the distance, Panda and Inumaki were waiting for them, talking with each other, only to freeze as Akira and Yuka passed by them, almost blowing the two away with their speed.
"What the?! Was that Yuka and Akira?" Panda asked himself with a sweat drop, while Inumaki wiped his forehead in disbelief at their speed.
"Salmon... (They really are Special Grade...)" Inumaki muttered.
Meanwhile...
Floating atop the temple, Gojo vanished from the air, using teleportation to teleport inside the building, right into the room where the Higher-ups are hiding.
Swoosh!
"Kill him!"
The higher-ups scream in fear and regret as Gojo teleports into the middle of the room. Instantly, a dozen sorcerers, trained by the Higher-ups surrounding Gojo, attacked him from all angles.
Those sorcerers were not weak; all of them were Grade 2's, with three of them being even weak Grade 1s. But even then, Gojo just watched leisurely, an amused grin creeping up onto his face.
Their attacks hit nothing, fading out as if they never existed due to Gojo's Infinity.
"Is this all that you weaklings could do?" Gojo asked while increasing his Infinity. He walked forward, crushing everyone back as his Infinity expanded to cover the entire room.
Boom!
The floor and the ceiling were all cracked from the pressure. Gojo grinned, an unhinged look on his face as he continued moving until every sorcerer in the room and the higher-ups were pushed against the wall.
They groaned in pain, their bones creaking and breaking before being flattened against the wall. Blood leaked from their orifices, their internal organs bursting in a brutal sound akin to popping a grape.
"Hmm? Looks like they made it, too bad they were late~," Gojo looked back, watching as the door to the room opened.
Yuka and Akira stood outside, watching with surprise as Gojo killed everyone in the room with his Infinity.
"Yo! Don't be mad, but I decided to kill them myself. I don't want your hands to be bathed in blood, even if they deserve it," Gojo spoke with a smile as he turned towards the two.
"Nah, you are good. As long as these bastards are dead, that's all that matters," Akira shrugged as he walked into the room. Gojo shortened his Infinity back around himself. letting the bodies fall to the ground limply, fresh blood pooling under their corpses.
"Well, what are you going to do now?" Akira asked Gojo as he crouched down next to a body, he stared at the face covered in fear and pain, a hint of satisfaction crawling on his face
"Replace these bums with some actual capable people that are trustworthy," Gojo replied.
