Then Tendou jumped to the ground, with Nidhogg getting unsummoned and absorbed back into his shadows.
Naoya rushed over with his incredible speed, furious.
He had just seen Satoru Gojo protect two "dishwashers" and what he considered disgusting women, and he had been preparing to fight him.
But then he had almost been caught in the explosion from the paper planes.
Now Naoya was extremely angry.
To him—the future head of the Zenin clan—this was like the other party was courting death.
-_-_-_-_-_-__-_
Tendou: wearing a white beard
Ah—what?
The scent of rice is strong with this one.
He rubbed a non-existent white beard prop.
Nidhogg:
Where the hell did you get the beard?
-_-_-_--_-__-_--__
Naoya:
Alright, whatever your name is, I'm going to kill you. Then everyone will take me seriously.
Tendou:
Yeah, like your mom seriously thought about having an abortion. Poor hag. Well, let me help her by fixing you.
Naoya:
('...')
Naoya didn't say anything.
He just started running toward Tendou like a bull seeing red.
TENDOU
He instantly took out around fifty fire extinguishers from the darkness.
Nidhogg:
You freaking bastard! That's why I was feeling so tired—you're using my darkness as some kind of rendezvous point or storage space!
Tendou then took out a few shurikens and kunai tied with wires and threw them toward Naoya.
They collided and fell, scattering around the nearby area with the help of Tendou's darkness.
Naoya became slightly stunned and stepped back as his instincts told him to run.
The feeling reminded him of the presence of Toji Fushiguro.
Tendou:
White Freeze…
He used his light to shoot beams that hit the fire extinguishers, making every single one explode.
There were also quite a few metal wires and modified fragments hidden inside them.
Naoya
Thinking his enemy was running away, and having little experience fighting a cunning opponent, he misjudged the situation.
Naoya:
You won't be able to run!
He rushed into the white smoke.
Inside the fog, he saw a black figure and charged toward it.
(Naoya—or any sorcerer below Grade 1 who doesn't possess something like the Six Eyes—cannot sense Tendou's cursed energy properly. The residue of darkness and light is extremely difficult to perceive without extremely high cursed energy sensitivity, and the darkness makes it even easier for Tendou to blend in.)
Naoya rushed forward using his Projection Sorcery and unleashed ten punches.
Then he realized—
It was a dummy.
But due to his cursed technique, he had already envisioned the next 24 frames of movement for the second.
At that moment he jumped back, barely avoiding being completely locked in place.
Tendou
Used his darkness to grab Naoya's legs.
Naoya
Thanks to years of training, quickly jumped to the right.
Tendou smiled.
Tendou:
Gotcha.
He activated the metal wire technique he had learned from John Smith in the Heian era, reinforcing the wires with cursed energy.
And his technique along with his binding vow of the weapon of the month allowed him to infuse black Rose's properties on to it
Thought weaker version because it wasn't used as a rope it still managed to dispel naoya's ce and ct ofc
The black rope was at its true potential for the first time after combing with tendou's darkness it got the property to extend itself by absorbing cursed energy from the enemies themselves
Thought tendou no cursed energy when he used it from the enemy
Tendou:
Earth's sorcery is indeed quite advanced.
At that moment, reinforcements arrived.
Jinichi Zenin rushed down from above.
Ogi Zenin—the father of Maki Zenin—also appeared.
Hira Zenin, the father of Ranta Zenin, came as well on the orders of Naobito.
Ogi Zenin:
Naoya! Fall back! We'll handle this!
Tendou used his darkness again.
The metal wires infused with his technique drained Naoya's cursed energy, and Tendou threw him to the side.
Seeing Naoya not responding, the others rushed forward.
Jinichi:
Muscle Punch Barrage!!!
Hira
Used his sight technique, but he couldn't see anything because of the thick fog caused by the white mist.
Ogi
Used Simple Domain and his Blazing Courage cursed technique.
But in the end, it was all useless.
As they advanced, hands of darkness wrapped around them as they jumped forward.
Because there was no sunlight and the thick mist from the extinguishers blocked the light, Tendou's darkness became even stronger.
As they tried jumping onto a tree, they saw spikes and black shadowy substances rushing toward them.
Jinichi used Muscle Fist, but it was useless.
The attack was absorbed—and worse, it was thrown right back at him.
(This was not the fully charged Meteor Fist like the one used against Maki. It was stopped before reaching its final form—like stopping a swordsman before he can draw his blade.)
Tendou:
Well… blood bonds really are thicker than water.
So you'll all share the same fate.
They were all caught in the same metal wire trap as Naoya.
The trap resembled a Cat's Cradle game.
Tendou had simply waited for his opponents to step into the trap's range.
Once they did, he released the wires—and they were doomed.
Whatttt my cursed technique I can't hear itt
Hira :
My eyessss (his eyes were bleeding because they lost its cursed energy)
