At the same time, on the other side, Satoru Gojo watched calmly as Jogo descended from the sky, causing massive destruction to the road, and asked a question.
"...Who are you?"
But Jogo clearly had no intention of answering Satoru Gojo's question. He directly created a small volcanic crater on the mountain wall beside Satoru Gojo and fired at him with all his might.
The scorching magma erupting from that small crater destroyed the road beneath Satoru Gojo's feet along with it.
The crimson light blooming from the eruption of that small crater almost completely dispelled the surrounding darkness.
Watching the massive amount of smoke rising, Jogo couldn't help but issue his victory declaration.
"What's this? To think the so-called Satoru Gojo is nothing special after all."
Inside the smoke, Satoru Gojo's voice immediately came back in response.
"Who did you say was nothing special?"
As Satoru Gojo's voice rang out, the smoke suddenly dissipated, revealing Satoru Gojo's figure within.
Only then did Jogo see the situation clearly. Not only was Satoru Gojo not dead, but the erupting scorching magma hadn't harmed him in the slightest.
Whether it was the magma beneath his feet or the magma attempting to swallow Satoru Gojo's body, everything was blocked around his body, as if a transparent sphere was protecting him.
"You..."
The joyful expression on Jogo's face gradually faded, and instead, he thought of the information Mahito had told them before they set out, information obtained from a manga.
Although at that time, whenever Jogo heard the word 'manga' from Mahito's mouth, he treated it entirely as if Mahito was playing a joke on him.
But now, seeing it with his own eyes, Jogo had to admit that Mahito was indeed right.
At that time, Mahito had said, "Satoru Gojo possesses an ability called the Limitless Cursed Technique. Even if the distance seems close at hand, it will extend infinitely because of this technique. It's impossible to truly attack him before breaking this technique."
At that time, Jogo had snorted at Mahito's words, thinking how such an ability could possibly exist. He thought it was just a delusion from Mahito's brain being broken by reading that so-called manga; he wanted to expose Satoru Gojo's supposed illusion of invincibility.
But Jogo now knew he was wrong; Mahito's intelligence was highly likely to be true.
Satoru Gojo was staring at Jogo and thinking as well. Despite being just a Cursed Spirit, he possessed the intelligence for normal communication, coupled with that terrifying strike just now that was enough to instantly kill a Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer. As expected, is he an unregistered Special Grade Cursed Spirit... And looking at him, that wasn't his full power either. If such a guy were allowed to destroy things at will, he would be even more terrifying than the Sukuna currently inside Itadori.
This forced Satoru Gojo to get a little serious about handling this.
And it wasn't just Satoru Gojo who was getting serious; Jogo became serious as well.
Back before they set out, after Mahito taught everyone 'Domain Amplification' and introduced Satoru Gojo's abilities, he made a bet with Jogo.
"I know you can't believe what I'm saying yet, but if your first full-power attack is completely ineffective because of the Limitless Cursed Technique, your subsequent actions must follow my arrangements."
Jogo didn't take the bait, instead retorting with disdain.
"Are you an idiot? How could anyone take my full-power attack and remain unscathed!"
Mahito immediately replied with a smile: "There is one, and that's Satoru Gojo. Not only is he unscathed, but not even a corner of his clothes will be touched~"
Mahito even vividly pulled at the corner of his own clothes while continuing to tease him.
"Or are you already scared after hearing this? Is that why you don't dare to bet?"
"Bullshit! Fine, I'll bet with you, but if he isn't unscathed like you said, don't you ever mention that damn manga in front of me again!"
Jogo pointed at Mahito and immediately agreed to the bet; without a doubt, reverse psychology worked quite well on Jogo.
Mahito smiled slightly and continued: "Good, then I'll continue. If your attack is ineffective, immediately use Domain Expansion, and under the enhancement of the domain, use your strongest attack, the Maximum Technique!"
The scene returned to the battlefield between Jogo and Satoru Gojo. Just as Satoru Gojo wanted to say something, he saw Jogo suddenly strike a hand seal and roar loudly at the same time.
"Domain Expansion: Coffin of the Iron Mountain!"
As Jogo finished the release, the two were instantly brought into an Innate Domain that looked like the interior of a volcano about to erupt.
Feeling the Coffin of the Iron Mountain, Satoru Gojo couldn't help but remark.
"Going all out right from the start?"
Jogo's move of opening his domain right away did indeed give Satoru Gojo a surprise.
It wasn't that he was afraid. Even if the current Jogo was far stronger than the Sukuna of this period, he wasn't at a level where he could take down Satoru Gojo alone; after all, Gojo was the man who could clash with Sukuna in his prime.
Satoru Gojo just felt a bit of regret. Had he known Jogo would bring out a domain right away, he would have brought Itadori along to experience it; he could have used the Coffin of the Iron Mountain to give Itadori a good lesson on the specifics of domains.
But the things that surprised Satoru Gojo were far from over. Satoru Gojo was suddenly shrouded by a massive shadow; Jogo had already leaped high into the air, a terrifying amount of Cursed Energy erupting around him, and he roared with his right hand held high.
"Maximum Technique: Meteor!"
The true identity of the shadow shrouding Satoru Gojo was the Maximum Technique released by Jogo.
In an instant, Satoru Gojo saw through Jogo's intention, guessing that he planned to use the Guaranteed-hit effect attached to the domain to bypass the Limitless Cursed Technique.
A combination of a domain and a Maximum Technique... as expected, it's targeted at me. But was a plan of this level really thought up by just a Cursed Spirit?
In the very instant Satoru Gojo was thinking, the Maximum Technique: Meteor, under the enhancement of the domain's Guaranteed-hit effect, had already begun to make contact with Satoru Gojo's body.
Hitting as soon as it's released—this was the terrifying nature of a domain's Guaranteed-hit effect.
Watching the massive Maximum Technique: Meteor descend, Jogo kept muttering under his breath.
"Die! Die!"
This time, Satoru Gojo did not choose to open his own domain. Because Itadori wasn't by his side, he chose another, more direct and violent way to deal with the current situation.
"Hollow Technique: Purple"
Because a part of the meteor collided with the ground making a huge noise, Jogo did not hear Satoru Gojo's voice. He only felt a terrifying Cursed Energy explode within the domain.
"How is this possible?"
In the next moment, the meteor before Jogo's eyes was directly blasted into dust, and that dazzling purple light instantly illuminated the entire domain.
