Chapter 64: The Zenin Family's Conspiracy
Alex Moyan hung up the call and glanced at the waiting group.
Alex Moyan walked to Satoru and Geto Suguru's side and explained the situation.
"Is that so?" Geto Suguru stroked his chin, thinking.
At this time, for such a thing to happen felt extremely suspicious.
But the world is unpredictable; no one can say for sure what unexpected things will happen next moment.
"Don't worry, with me and Jie here, you can go with peace of mind."
Satoru smiled, giving Alex Moyan an extremely confident look, as if saying, 'Leave it to us, no problem.'
Alex Moyan: "Then I'll leave this place to you two. You must protect that girl well."
"Don't mess up the mission, or Sensei will scold you severely."
"He's been very pleased with himself recently."
"I know, I know. He hasn't even become the principal yet, but he already has the airs of one. I'm not afraid of him," Satoru interrupted, his expression careless.
"Then I'll be leaving first. You two be careful."
As soon as Alex Moyan finished speaking, he turned and left without hesitation.
Outside the airport, a black sedan was already waiting.
"Special Grade Sorcerer, Mr. Alex Moyan, I am here to pick you up."
A man dressed in a black suit and sunglasses opened the car door for Alex Moyan, welcoming his arrival.
Once inside the car, through the introduction by the Assistant Supervisor, Alex Moyan finally learned the specific location and details of the mission.
"It's this far?" Alex Moyan frowned slightly.
Looking at the documents in his hand, damn it, it was deep in the mountains.
It would take half a day just by driving, and it was a winding mountain road leading to a mountain village whose name he didn't even know.
What kind of major grievance could cause such strong resentment in that remote place?
Even a Special Grade Cursed Spirit was summoned.
The matter was probably not that simple.
Alex Moyan looked at the documents in his hand, already guessing most of it in his heart.
It was likely deliberately arranged by someone.
And in the entire Jujutsu World, there were only a few Jujutsu Sorcerers capable of arranging a Special Grade Cursed Spirit.
Combining memories from his previous life, Alex Moyan could basically confirm it.
"The Zenin Family, perhaps?" Alex Moyan gazed at the rapidly receding roads and scenery outside the window, lost in thought.
The Zenin Family, one of the The Big Three Families, had always been at odds with the Gojo Family.
The current Zenin Family was experiencing a gap between generations; among their descendants, there wasn't a single junior capable of inheriting the clan's Ten Shadows Technique.
In contrast, the Gojo Family had produced a Six Eyes, a prodigy rarely seen in hundreds of years. Upon his birth, the entire structure of the Jujutsu World had changed significantly.
There were already faint signs of them becoming the leader among the The Big Three Families—truly at their peak.
Furthermore, recently Alex Moyan had extorted both clans, which only added insult to injury for the Zenin Family.
"Although Toji Fushiguro separated from the Zenin Family, he is actually still inextricably linked to them."
"Are they trying to use this opportunity to weaken the Gojo Family?"
Toji Fushiguro pondered.
Indeed, to defeat Satoru, they needed a way to break through the defense of his Limitless.
Coincidentally, Toji Fushiguro possessed the special grade cursed tool, Inverted Spear of Heaven, for this purpose.
Even if it failed, their Zenin Family wouldn't suffer any losses, and they could even use borrowed knives to kill the culprit who simply massacred members of the Zenin Family.
If it succeeded, it would naturally be even better, as the decline of the Gojo Family would be a very favorable situation for the Zenin Family.
"What a clever calculation, and this calculation is something no one would ever think of."
After all, who would pay attention to someone with zero Cursed Energy?
Who could have imagined that a guy with zero Cursed Energy possessed such formidable combat power, comparable to a Quasi-Special Grade?
This was why Satoru was so surprised when he first met Toji Fushiguro.
And why Toji Fushiguro was so composed when he met Satoru.
Intelligence—know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated.
From the very beginning, Satoru had fallen into Toji Fushiguro's perfect intelligence and plan, unable to extricate himself.
Like a giant beast, lured slowly, eventually falling into an inescapable abyss.
This was also the reason for sending Alex Moyan away.
Because no matter how strong Toji Fushiguro was, or how meticulous his plan and calculation were,
It was impossible for him to deal with both of them simultaneously.
The gap between them was no longer something that could be narrowed or even changed by planning and scheming.
When both sides engaged in a direct confrontation, and both were fully aware of the other's intelligence,
Toji Fushiguro's chance of defeating Satoru was very low!
Because Satoru only needed to guard against Toji Fushiguro's Inverted Spear of Heaven to fight casually.
But under such a meticulous plan, Toji Fushiguro only needed to seize the opportunity to win!
A battle changes in an instant; it's not certain that the stronger one will always win.
The weak can turn defeat into victory by seizing a fleeting opportunity.
Victory and defeat are often influenced by multiple factors; victory and defeat happen in just an instant!
Of course, if the strength difference is too massive, what I just said is nonsense.
————
Late at night, Alex Moyan finally arrived at his destination, a small house designated as a rest stop.
An hour after Alex Moyan left, Satoru and the others had already flown to Okinawa to enjoy the beach and sunshine.
Only Alex Moyan was miserably stuck in the car, wasting his life out of sheer boredom.
If it weren't for Maki and Megumi Fushiguro both being people from the Zenin Family, Alex Moyan would have wanted to wipe out the Zenin Family right now.
To dare send him away when they had nothing better to do—did they really think they were that clever?
Actually, Alex Moyan had seen through it long ago; he was just playing along with their act.
After all, Satoru still needed Toji Fushiguro's help for his awakening.
If he couldn't learn the Reverse Cursed Technique, Teacher Toji could teach him—one strike would be effective, and with a few more slashes, he would awaken directly!
This plot was quite similar to a certain'Sea King' character.
Besides, the Zenin Family was just that; even if the opponent summoned Mahoraga using a Jujutsu Sorcerers with the Ten Shadows Technique,
In Alex Moyan's eyes, it was merely a toy, a very durable toy.
Satoru had once asked Alex Moyan how to learn the Reverse Cursed Technique.
He said that what Shoko taught him made no sense at all.
Whoosh whoosh—what the heck was that? The teaching was too abstract, like an airplane?
And he claimed he had no talent! I, Satoru, the rare Six Eyes of the Gojo Family in hundreds of years, and you tell me I have no talent!
But what Satoru didn't expect was that Alex Moyan's teaching was even more abstract.
After teaching, Alex Moyan helplessly patted the bewildered Satoru's shoulder.
He said earnestly, "Young man, I've taught you everything I can. You need to grasp the rest yourself."
Arriving at the village, the night was enchanting, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
One hundred households were located here, mostly elderly people.
The young people had already left this place to develop in big cities.
Alex Moyan and the Assistant Supervisor were lodged in a household arranged by the village chief.
Although the room wasn't large, it was clean and tidy.
It seemed the village chief hadn't completely fooled Alex Moyan and the other person.
He had given them the necessary provisions and items.
Furthermore, he had prepared a rich local specialty dinner.
However, Alex Moyan was truly uninterested in the dances performed by the older women.
The village chief and the villagers, on the other hand, watched with great enjoyment.
The next day, the sun rose, and the scorching sunlight mercilessly shone upon Alex Moyan.
This time, Alex Moyan's mission was at a large villa on the mountain.
Alex Moyan noticed that whenever a particularly big Cursed Spirit incident occurred in the countryside, there was invariably a large villa involved.
It seemed this had become a pattern.
