Eating Avatar Scraps from Jujutsu Kaisen

Ultimately, only by winning could he ensure the safety of the civilians above the subway station.

However, this attack, imbued with a vast amount of cursed energy, was neutralized by a golden barrier of cursed energy released by Makima before it could even touch her, without causing the slightest ripple.

Is it the power of restraint again?

Seeing this, Gojo Satoru didn't stop. Several blue streams of cursed energy converged in the confined space.

Using the suction of Cursed Technique: Blue, Gojo Satoru moved at extreme speed, dodging the golden chains Makima unleashed, while also attempting to remotely interfere with Makima's movements using Blue's suction.

But just like with Red before, even though it had exerted its suction, the power of Blue completely vanished upon contact with the golden barrier surrounding Makima's body. It couldn't pull anything at all.

Even as Gojo Satoru poured more cursed energy into his technique, making the blue cursed energy churn the ground and walls like a grinding mill, kicking up large amounts of debris and rebar towards Makima, the moment the debris and rebar touched the golden barrier, they fell straight to the ground as if all their momentum had vanished.

"It's quite an overbearing Cursed Technique, as if no power can break through it."

Facing the golden cursed energy barrier that could be described as absolute defense, Gojo Satoru grinned and struck a pose.

Since neither Blue nor Red could have any substantial effect on Makima, Gojo Satoru had to try other methods.

Hollow Technique: Purple? That was obviously not an option. If he used it here, at least half of the civilians trapped in the barrier would die.

If that was the case, then his only option was Domain Expansion.

Fortunately, the entire subway station was empty. Although it was a bit surprising that Makima, a curse, had set up a barrier in advance to clear out any unnecessary personnel from the subway station to prevent their battle from affecting the civilians, it also created the conditions for Gojo Satoru to successfully deploy his domain.

"Domain Expansion: Infinite Void!"

A pitch-black, void-like landscape, akin to a black hole, enveloped them. In the intertwining of light and darkness, a massive amount of useless information was poured towards Makima, attempting to stop all beings within the domain, except Gojo Satoru, from thinking.

However, facing this, Makima seemed prepared. She slowly extended her hands and formed a gesture.

The next second, a golden world replaced the original scenery, engulfing everything around them.

"Domain Expansion: Restraint Barrier."

The familiar weakness enveloped his entire body once more. Gojo Satoru's domain was suppressed in an instant. It was so fast that the side effect of cursed technique fusion disconnection didn't even have time to manifest before his body's strength and cursed energy, along with his domain, vanished under Makima's domain.

Fortunately, Makima's domain expansion lasted for a very short time, so short that it was released by Makima herself in less than a second.

After all, the range of the Restraint Barrier, even when compressed to its limit using domain techniques, had a diameter of five hundred meters. This range included both the upper and lower directions.

Even for Gojo Satoru, who possessed the Six Eyes, it was impossible to precisely control the activation and deactivation of the domain within such a short period, so he could only use the technique at its lowest power for 0.2 seconds.

And this led to another problem: a Restraint Barrier activated at the minimum power for only 0.2 seconds seemingly wasn't enough to instantly render Gojo Satoru completely incapable of fighting. After the domain disappeared, the barrier of cursed energy that had been surrounding Makima also vanished.

Seeing this, Gojo Satoru, having recovered his strength, naturally wouldn't let this opportunity pass. Blue's suction operated at maximum power, and Gojo Satoru instantly appeared before Makima, with Red, condensed from dark red cursed energy, ready in his hand.

Facing Gojo Satoru's attack, golden cursed energy gathered in Makima's hand, forming a sharp sword, but Gojo Satoru didn't care at all.

Because at this distance, even if Makima wanted to block, it would be too late. His attack would hit Makima first, defeating her.

Therefore, this battle, he had won!

Under Gojo Satoru's confident gaze, Makima, just as he predicted, was too late to draw her sword to block. She merely moved her lips, seemingly saying something.

But at this moment, what meaning could words possibly hold?

Gojo Satoru's mind only had time to flash with this hint of confusion.

PS: Seeing the sword in Makima's hand, everyone should be able to guess what will happen in the next chapter.

Chapter 58: Gojo Satoru: Makima is Different from Other Curses

In a world resembling a resort hotel, Gojo Satoru suddenly woke up and immediately sat up, looking around.

"Yo, you're awake, Satoru."

Beside Gojo Satoru, a figure he was all too familiar with sat there, greeting him with a smile.

It was Geto Suguru, wearing his Jujutsu High uniform. Upon seeing Gojo Satoru arrive, his eyes held a hint of regret, but more of a sense of relief.

"Suguru, you bastard..."

Realizing where he was now, Gojo Satoru clenched his fists, but then let out a long sigh and slumped back down.

"How do you feel about the strength of that Miss Makima?"

Geto Suguru asked with a smile.

"Terrifyingly strong. I can't find any weaknesses in her Cursed Technique."

Gojo Satoru replied gloomily.

"Although I didn't go all out due to concerns for the civilians, I could feel that the other party was holding back even more. Even if both of us went all out with no reservations, she would probably still win."

"If I hadn't been worried about the domain killing civilians, perhaps the battle would have ended the moment my Infinite Void clashed with her domain."

To this, Geto Suguru couldn't help but show some surprise.

"I never thought you'd say something like that one day. It seems she really left a deep impression on you."

Recalling the various details of his previous fight with Makima and her various actions, Gojo Satoru raised his hands and clenched his fists.

"Makima, she's different from other curses. I've never seen a curse that was more human-like than her before. In fact, to me, many humans are not as human as Miss Makima."

"For a moment, I even truly felt that perhaps handing over the Jujutsu World to a more humane curse like Makima would be better than handing it over to those higher-ups."

It's worth noting that before this, Gojo Satoru had always been indifferent to curses, but his current change in attitude was so significant that it demonstrated the impact of this battle on him.

Geto Suguru did not comment on this.

"Satoru, are you leaving?"

"Ah, in the previous battle, I didn't feel any killing intent. They likely won't kill me."

"It's just... when I wake up, perhaps I'll forget all of this, just as she said at the beginning."

Gojo Satoru gave a wry smile, his body gradually fading under Geto Suguru's gaze.

"The future of the Jujutsu World is completely irrelevant to me now. From now on, I will be a complete bystander."

"Suguru, next time I come, if I really can't remember this memory, please tell it to me again."

"Well... we'll see. After all, don't expect me to wait for you here."

In reality, crimson blood dripped onto the ground. Gojo Satoru's lower half remained standing, while his upper body lay collapsed in a pool of blood. His unfocused eyes regained a sliver of clarity as he looked at Makima before him.

"That ability just now... is that also your Cursed Technique?"

Makima dispersed the weapon condensed from cursed energy in her hand and nodded slightly.

"Word Spirit Technique. You can think of it as an ability similar to Cursed Speech, using words to forcibly control others."

"Unlike the permanent Domination of the Domination Technique under normal circumstances, the Word Spirit Technique can only temporarily control other targets. However, correspondingly, the strength of control exerted by a Cursed Technique cast through Word Spirit is far superior to that of a normal Domination Technique, and the conditions for control are also easier than normal Domination."

Just moments ago, when Gojo Satoru charged forward, Makima had used the Word Spirit Technique to forcibly stop him before launching her attack.

And so, the situation had become as it was now.

Completely unable to resist due to being controlled by the Word Spirit, Gojo Satoru was cleanly bisected by the cursed energy condensed by Makima, recreating a famous world painting.

As for why Makima, despite having Gojo Satoru under her control with the Word Spirit, didn't simply use Chains of Restraint to strip him of his ability to resist and then dominate him, choosing instead the unnecessary step of attacking?

Don't forget, Makima possessed all the memories of An Xiu as well as all the memories of the corresponding original characters. As a wicked woman, Makima also had a small, personal sadistic streak.

"This is delightful, Mr. Gojo Satoru. Please take a little rest here for a while."

Utilizing the authority of the Dominator Devil to bring Gojo Satoru under her control, Makima induced a coma in him while also making him forget the memories of this period.

In Gojo Satoru's memory, he would only recall being ambushed after entering the subway station, but the specific details and process would be completely blank, and he would be unable to recall them through any means.

Taking out her phone to snap a photo of Gojo Satoru before her, Makima then sent it to An Xiu. After that, Makima took out a ball of Creation Power that had been prepared long ago and threw it onto Gojo Satoru. Simultaneously, she gave a signal to the lurking Dagon outside the barrier.

"Everyone, let's begin."

Outside, a group of sorcerers were gathered outside the barrier, anxiously observing the situation within.

Just moments ago, a powerful energy had erupted from within the barrier. The sorcerers present were mostly experienced veteran sorcerers, along with two Special Grades, Tsukumo Yuki and Okkotsu Yuta. Therefore, even through the barrier, they immediately realized it was the sign of a Domain Expansion.

Clearly, Gojo Satoru within the barrier was battling someone. However, the surge of cursed energy only lasted for less than a second before disappearing, so they were unsure of the current situation inside the barrier.

"Gojo Satoru probably won, after all, that guy's only reliable point is his strength,"

Meimei said somewhat uncertainly.

"But if he won, then the barrier should have been lifted by now."

Zenin Naobito's expression was extremely solemn. As the head of the Zenin family, a Grade 1 sorcerer, and one of the few high-ranking members of the Jujutsu World willing to be on the front lines, his vision and experience were undoubtedly very rich.

Therefore, faced with this strange situation, he already had a vague sense of unease.

Could it be that Gojo Satoru was the one who lost? No, no, no, the surge of cursed energy just now only lasted for an instant. As the head of the current Gojo family, a Special Grade sorcerer, and the inheritor of the Six Eyes, how could Gojo Satoru be defeated in such a short time? Perhaps there was some other reason...

Suddenly, all the sorcerers present intensely looked around.

"Be careful, there are a large number of cursed energy signatures approaching!"

A moment later, countless dense cursed spirits were seen traversing the city, having surrounded everyone at some point.

Chapter 59: Sukuna: I'll kill the Herrscher of Life and Death? I'll win!

"Damn it! How did so many cursed spirits suddenly appear?"

Looking at the dense army of cursed spirits surrounding them, the sorcerers present couldn't help but look solemn.

"Such a number of cursed spirits could not have gathered naturally. Someone must be controlling them from the shadows."

"To control such a vast number of cursed spirits, could it be Cursed Spirit Manipulation?"

Just then, an extraordinarily powerful cursed energy signature appeared in mid-air. Everyone looked up and saw a giant bird-like cursed spirit flying from not far away. And on its back stood five figures.

Each of these five figures possessed a cursed energy aura far surpassing that of ordinary Special Grade cursed spirits. The person leading them caused many of the sorcerers below to show expressions of disbelief.

"Geto Suguru? Wasn't he supposed to be dead?!"

Facing everyone's astonishment, Dagon in mid-air spoke, "This is indeed the Cursed Spirit Manipulation technique, and I am here to fulfill the last wish of the strongest."

Tsukumo Yuki, Okkotsu Yuta, and most importantly, Itadori Yuji.

"I'll handle Tsukumo Yuki. Mahito, Hanami, and Dagon, go and stall Okkotsu Yuta. Leaking Pot, go and capture Sukuna's vessel and make him consume the finger."

After saying this to the four Heavenly Calamity Cursed Spirits beside him, Dagon then leaped down and charged towards Gojo Satoru, Artoria, and Tokisaki Kurumi, intending to defeat them with a single blow.

At the same time, the surrounding horde of cursed spirits charged towards the sorcerers.

For a time, the entire battlefield was in chaos, with sorcerers and cursed spirits clashing everywhere.

According to the plan, An Xiu, who was supposed to be the main force, had a problem with his plan and was instead dealing with the troublesome cursed spirits that appeared out of nowhere.

Itadori Yuji, who was fighting a nameless cursed spirit with a barrage of punches, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. Before he could react, a powerful force struck him directly in the back.

Bang!

As the strongest of the four Heavenly Calamity cursed spirits, its power was enough to make even the Special Grade sorcerers despair. The subsequent attack was too fast for Itadori Yuji to dodge, and he was sent flying out.

"This is bad!"

Seeing this, the Jujutsu High students felt a sense of dread, but the numerous cursed spirits in front of them left them no room to escape.

Boom!!!

Scorching flames mixed with surging heatwaves surged towards Itadori Yuji. Leaking Pot didn't care about the damage such an attack would inflict on the vessel of Sukuna. After all, as long as Sukuna, a curse, appeared, this kind of injury would be easily recovered.

Facing Leaking Pot's relentless attack, Itadori Yuji couldn't hold on for much longer and was quickly defeated by Leaking Pot, rendering him unable to fight.

Leaking Pot quickly approached Itadori Yuji and took out seventeen Sukuna's fingers from his pocket, quickly feeding them to the unconscious Itadori Yuji.

Although Itadori Yuji, as the perfect vessel, could normally suppress Sukuna's consciousness at will, he was now not only unconscious but also force-fed a large number of Sukuna's fingers. His body couldn't adapt in time.

This meant that if nothing unexpected happened, Itadori Yuji would not be able to compete for control of his body with Sukuna for a long time.

Feeling Sukuna's consciousness about to awaken, Leaking Pot, having achieved its goal, didn't dare to delay and chose to retreat.

An Xiu, who was supposed to be the main force, was still being hindered by the troublesome cursed spirits that appeared out of nowhere. He couldn't break free from them, and the cursed spirits that appeared made it impossible for him to pursue Leaking Pot, who had already fled.

"What happened?"

Seeing this, some sorcerers who were engrossed in the battle and hadn't paid attention to the situation were confused. A few sorcerers, along with the Special Grade sorcerers Tsukumo Yuki and Okkotsu Yuta, cast their solemn gazes towards Itadori Yuji, who lay outside the battlefield.
