Yuji Itadori, how you live is your freedom.
But I only advise you to stay away from that woman and let go of her quickly.
A stern-looking middle-aged man in his fifties reprimanded a man in his thirties holding a child, his tone aggressive.
Recalling that his son had a child with that mysterious woman of unknown origin, a certain ominous premonition in his heart had reached its peak.
"You'll die!"
"Dad, what are you talking about? Yuji is still here."
The middle-aged man wearing glasses looked at the child in his arms, who was about to cry because of his father's loud scolding, and immediately tried to soothe him to sleep.
While patting the child's back, he complained to his father,
"If you say bad things about her again, I'm taking Yuji home now."
From their conversation, it could be judged that the relationship between the father and son was not good, full of antagonism.
The old man wanted to say something more, but suddenly there was a sound of breaking plates from the kitchen, which instantly tensed the nerves of both father and son.
Especially the middle-aged man holding the child, he didn't say a second word to his father and directly rushed into the kitchen with the child.
"My dear, what's wrong with you!"
But when he arrived in the kitchen, he saw his lover lying on the ground, surrounded by shattered ceramic plates, and he was instantly stunned.
"I'm fine, I just suddenly felt a bit dizzy."
After a long while, the short-haired woman lying on the ground slowly raised her head, revealing a pale, haggard face, looking almost dead.
Most striking was a stitched line on her forehead, identical to the Kamo Family Elder, one of the three great families of the Jujutsu World!
The weak woman said to the man.
"I'm sorry, I made a mess here."
"This is not 'fine'! Look, your forehead is bleeding."
The woman lying on the ground didn't notice that as she raised her head, blood was continuously flowing from the stitched line on her forehead, basically staining half her face from top to bottom.
There were obvious fresh and terrifying wounds on her arms and body, clearly just sustained, and there was already a large pool of blood on the ground.
Reminded by this, the woman instinctively wiped her hand across her face, and when she saw the glaring crimson blood covering her hand, the pupils in her eyes sharply contracted.
The next second, she immediately felt dizzy, realizing that something was very wrong, but it was too late; the 'Black Rage' and 'Bloodthirst' transcending time and space were upon her.
"Impossible!"
She widened her eyes, disbelief in them.
"I've already cut off all ties with that clone, why can it still..."
It was like a branch server getting a computer virus; as the main server, to avoid infection, she chose to actively sever ties with the branch server.
The Kamo Family Elder was the most powerful, strongest, and wealthiest of all her clones, yet she abandoned him without hesitation.
However, the heroic act of cutting off her own arm did not succeed. The computer virus that infected the branch server inexplicably reappeared on the main server, causing widespread destruction.
Damn it.
Just as she finished speaking, two terrifying trails of blood tears streamed from the woman's eyes, and her nose also bled profusely.
Then, an boundless darkness appeared before her eyes and swallowed her. This was followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground; the woman, who had struggled to stand up, immediately fell into a faint again.
Her head hit the pool of blood heavily.
The tragic state of his "wife" immediately frightened the man.
"Dad, help me take care of Itadori for a bit."
His father also arrived in the kitchen at this time, and when he saw his daughter-in-law lying unconscious in a pool of blood, his eyes widened.
It wasn't until his son shoved his grandson into his arms that he reacted.
But by then, his son had already carried his daughter-in-law and walked away, leaving only him and his crying grandson in the silent room.
After a while, he looked at the mess on the ground and let out a long sigh.
"This is fate."
Leaving aside the complex family ethics here.
On the other side, in a dark corner, only the flickering light of streetlights shone intermittently. Although the place was small, there were many people there.
"How boring. How long do we have to wait?"
Gojo Satoru, wearing sunglasses late at night, sat casually on the steps, his legs spread apart, his left hand supporting his tilted head.
The expression on his face seemed to say,
"Families, who understands? It's already eight o'clock at night, and the Jujutsu Sorcerer Association still isn't letting students go home."
"Kenmyo's phone isn't going through again. Ah, ah, I'm so hungry."
Gojo Satoru thought that if Kenmyo had time, he could bring him some sweets.
"Satoru, there's nothing we can do."
Suguru Geto looked at Gojo Satoru helplessly, leaning against the nearby wall, his face full of resignation as he looked at his good friend.
"After all, something happened to the Kamo Family, one of the three great families of the Jujutsu World."
"This is a big event!"
The president of the Jujutsu Sorcerer Association had already stated that they must support the Kamo Family at all costs.
Suguru Geto glanced at the distant, massive black dome-like barrier covering the entire Kamo Family, a grave expression on his face.
Because it was an unprecedented high-level Barrier Technique, similar in function to a Domain, the Jujutsu Sorcerer Association still hadn't found a way to infiltrate it and provide assistance to the Kamo Family.
Actually, the most effective method would be for the current strongest combatant of the Jujutsu Sorcerer Association, Special Grade Sorcerer Yuki Tsukumo, to activate her Domain against that barrier, forcibly neutralizing it and engaging in a Domain clash. Only then might it be possible.
But Yuki Tsukumo was currently watching the aurora borealis in the Arctic; how could she have time to deal with such a minor matter?
With no way to break the deadlock, they could only wait and see. Currently, the area within three kilometers of the Kamo Family's outermost perimeter was completely sealed off, with road traffic control, prohibiting anyone from entering.
Moreover, all available Jujutsu Sorcerer had been called, even the other two of the three great families of the Jujutsu World, the Zenin Family and the Gojo Family, had sent their respective elite Jujutsu Sorcerer, mostly renowned Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerers from each family.
However, whether they came to rescue or to watch the show and gloat, or to add insult to injury, remained unknown.
It all depended on the Kamo Family's final outcome, whether they could survive this catastrophe.
"Tch, whether those Kamo Family bastards live or die, what does it matter to me?"
Gojo Satoru disdainfully pursed his lips. He was the next head of the Gojo Family.
Although he found family feuds and resource grabbing troublesome and didn't want to participate at all, these were indeed necessary for a family to develop new blood.
After all, resources are limited, and if many people share them, then what they get will be very little.
As rivaling great families, if one family were to be eliminated, wouldn't it be quite satisfying for him, the young master of the Gojo Family?
"Sigh."
Hearing Gojo Satoru's irresponsible remarks, Suguru Geto scratched his head in distress.
"You really are..."
Complaining to him on a normal day was fine, but today was different. Because the incident was sudden, it was a Type 1 alert that would receive a response from the entire Jujutsu World.
Not only Gojo Satoru, but also Suguru Geto, Utahime Iori Utahime, Shoko , and even first-year students like Yu Haibara and Nanami Kento were present. Under the recruitment of the Jujutsu Sorcerer Association, all the combat forces of Tokyo Jujutsu High had arrived, all on standby 800 meters from the Kamo Family's sealed zone.
However, what Gojo Satoru had just said seemed entirely blasphemous.
This was a bit awkward.
"Satoru, try to act a bit more like a senior, the juniors are still here."
Filled with a noble ideal of justice and saving the world, Gojo Satoru's negativity made Suguru Geto frown.
The underclassmen were still here; as their seniors, they should set a good example.
But his good friend's admonition was like nonsense to Gojo Satoru.
"None of that matters, brother."
Gojo Satoru shook his head and waved his hand, appearing indifferent to everything.
"Geto, believe it or not, if anything happens later..."
"In the end, it will definitely be up to us two'strongest' to clean up this mess. In that case, it's better to wait until the barrier is broken before they come to us two."
"Waiting here now is just a waste of time."
Gojo Satoru's Limitless also couldn't erode this broken thing. He didn't believe the Jujutsu Sorcerer Association had any other means to enter.
Thinking of this...
"Teacher!"
Gojo Satoru complained loudly to his teacher, Yaga Masamichi.
"I'm starving."
The slacking Gojo Satoru lost his patience and complained to Yaga Masamichi,
"How long do we have to be on standby here? Geto and I want to go eat."
"Huh?"
Suguru Geto's eyes widened. When did I say that?
"No! We must wait for the orders from the Jujutsu Sorcerer Association."
Yaga Masamichi refused immediately without thinking.
As the next principal of Tokyo Jujutsu High, Yaga Masamichi had led his students to wait here for two hours.
Yaga Masamichi looked at the black barrier in the distance, covering the entire Kamo Family compound, his eyes under his sunglasses filled with awe.
This was a time when the Jujutsu Sorcerer Association was at a loss, and his rich experience naturally told him what this implied.
Not a single person in the entire Jujutsu Sorcerer Association could break this barrier!
Just gazing at the despair and death Cursed Energy contained within it was almost overflowing, seeming to devour people.
The danger level was maxed out, making even the Jujutsu Sorcerer Association too numb to try easily.
What kind of magnificent entity could use such a Domain, covering almost the entire Kamo Family?
This was no longer just a bit of strength, but immense strength!
"Kamo Family, what kind of terrifying entity have they provoked?"
Yaga Masamichi swallowed hard.
But suddenly, whether it was Gojo Satoru or Suguru Geto, everyone stood up.
Because they saw that the super-large barrier, which was like a wall of despair, absolutely resisted outsiders, prohibited contact, and left almost the entire Jujutsu Sorcerer Association helpless, had disappeared!
The Kamo Family's ancestral homes, passed down for a thousand years, finally returned completely to their sight.
However, unlike what some gloating people imagined, the Kamo Family had not become a pile of ruins; the overall buildings were basically intact. It still looked so grand and magnificent.
It showed the heritage of a thousand-year-old prominent family.
What was seen with the help of drones were only a few scattered houses razed to the ground; other than that, there were no signs of large-scale combat.
"This is impossible!"
The leader of the Zenin Family's team in this operation exclaimed directly.
"What a joke?"
Such a terrifying entity actually caused so little damage to the Kamo Family.
The Zenin Family Elder had specifically instructed them to use a recording image stone to properly document the Kamo Family's miserable state.
It would be even better if they could capture the condition of his arch-rival, Kamo Kenichiro, the Kamo Family Elder. The best outcome would be for that old dog to die in this Cursed Spirit attack.
But the entire Kamo Family, apart from being a bit quiet, showed no signs of being severely damaged at all.
"Creak."
The magnificent vermilion main gate of the Kamo Family, about five meters high, was slowly pushed open from the middle.
All the Jujutsu Sorcerer present were on high alert, their nerves stretched taut.
After all, no one could be sure if what emerged at this moment was still human.
Soon, as the gate opened, an unusually domineering old man in a luxurious black kimono walked out, his face very serious.
Facing at least seventy Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerers, and scattered Second, Third, and Fourth Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer, totaling about four hundred Jujutsu Sorcerer,
Instead, most of the Jujutsu Sorcerer sent by the Jujutsu Sorcerer Association showed a fearful side, because the terrifying Cursed Energy emanating from him was evenly distributed among everyone present, making it difficult for even weaker individuals to breathe.
This old man's strength was terrifying, and his control over Cursed Energy was astonishing.
The high-ranking individuals who knew his identity all snorted in displeasure from the safest places in their respective families.
"Kenichiro, so that old dog is still alive."
Kamo Kenichiro's appearance made everyone with ulterior motives retract their little schemes.
After all, this man was the Kamo Family Elder, and currently the strongest person in the Kamo Family! The strongest Sorcerer!
Since this guy was still alive, it meant that the Kamo Family had indeed not suffered any major losses.
After all, this old man was famously protective of his own.
"I, Kamo Kenichiro, am very grateful to everyone for stepping forward to help us when our family faced danger."
Kamo Kenichiro cupped his hands to the crowd before him, then bowed deeply.
"We were attacked by three Special Grade Cursed Spirits. Their Cursed Techniques were very strange, making them elusive even to me, which is why so much time was wasted."
"Tonight, we have consumed a large amount of public resources from the Jujutsu Sorcerer Association, and I am very sorry for that."
"All Jujutsu Sorcerer present tonight will receive a gift from the Kamo Family."
"Thank you all very much!"
Kamo Kenichiro coughed once before speaking, clearing his throat, indicating that something very important was coming next.
"I also wish to announce one more matter."
Kamo Kenichiro looked at all the Jujutsu Sorcerer present, his expression extremely serious.
"I hope that under your witness..."
"I will announce the change of the Kamo Family's next head."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire venue erupted in an uproar. Everyone began to discuss amongst themselves.
This was big news; the Kamo Family, one of the three great families, was actually going to re-decide the position of heir. Once this decision was made, it could not be changed, as it affected the interests of various branches. It was possible that internal strife could even lead to the overthrow of the entire family.
"Wait!"
Everyone thought at the same time: could it be that the huge barrier just now was not an attack by Special Grade Cursed Spirits, but rather an internal purge by the Kamo Family against its own members?
It was a huge internal reshuffle, a massive internal change.
"Originally, the Kamo Family's next head was Kamo Noritoshi, the son of the former clan head."
"However, he is young, and I believe he is not suitable for the current Kamo Family."
"Therefore, as the Kamo Family Elder, and with the joint decision of the family's internal Council of Elders..."
"We abolish the resolution for Kamo Noritoshi to be the next head."
"Instead, Kenmyo, who inherited the Kamo Family's orthodox Cursed Technique, will assume the role of the new Kamo Family's next head!"
"Who?"
While the Jujutsu Sorcerer were still wondering, "Who is Kenmyo?"
The people from Tokyo Jujutsu High, upon hearing this name, had very strange expressions, especially Gojo Satoru and Suguru Geto, who suddenly heard the familiar name of their good friend. They couldn't help but be stunned.
"Kenmyo?"
