Destruction

"I never expected you to become my rival."

"This is all for... you."

After breaking free from the Mahoraga's Wheel, Xuan felt the mental burden becoming increasingly severe—his brain was rapidly being consumed by the garbage information in the Unlimited Void. Unlike when he was fighting alone, he was now unable to quickly resolve the Satoru Gojo.

It would be ideal to bypass the Little Mo and directly interrupt Satoru Gojo's domain.

But that's... the mindset of a loser.

Xuan pulled the Eight-Handled Sword from the shadows. The moment Little Mo saw Xuan draw his longsword, he immediately retreated. At the same time, the two newly regenerated Mahoraga pounced forward.

Click, click.

After being instantly killed twice, the two Mahoraga had adapted to Xuan's slashes. The two Mahoraga had integrated with the Little Mo's thinking ability. Therefore, the Gomo and the Sukumo, who did not have the ability to decide on sexual matters, were only responsible for covering for the Little Mo.

Nue

Xuan clapped his hands in mid-air, and a thunderous Lightning struck the Satoru Gojo Mahoraga in an instant. If it weren't for the adaptability provided by the Little Mo, Gomo would have already been defeated—but...

The black Lightning was dodged by the Sukumo just moments before it Sukumo.

"Dragon Scales, Recoil, Paired Shooting Stars."

As he dodged, the Sukumo Lord clapped his hands together and uttered a spell—the slash aimed at the space where Xuan was located instantly severed Xuan's waist.

Sizzle--Bang!!!

Little Mo naturally didn't let this opportunity slip by. As Sukumo sliced open Xuan's waist and abdomen, Little Mo had already moved forward with the Sword of Extermination. As the blade sliced open Xuan's counterattack, Little Demon placed his palm on Xuan's shoulder.

"Idle Transfiguration!"

The moment the Idle Transfiguration- action was initiated, Xuan vanished instantly.

"Too slow, Little Mo."

Xuan's body was instantly sliced into pieces, and the withered branch above his head was launched out, appearing behind Little Mo.

The Little Mo's body spun like a top, facing Xuan. Before Xuan's attack could land, the Little Mo had already raised its hand and struck Xuan's body with a hand chop.

"Cursed Technique Reversal - Light."

The sword formed of light struck Mahoraga in an instant. The light, which should have been harmless, actually cut a shocking wound on the Little Mo's body. As the wound appeared, the Dharma Wheel above the Little Mo's head also began to spin.

Click.

This was actually bad news for Little Mo – once a new move appears, it means that variations of the moves derived from it will also appear, and Little Mo's plan was based on the premise that she had completely mastered Xuan's combat logic and skills.

Seeing that Xuan still wanted to give chase, Sukumo's body suddenly appeared next to Little Mo, and at the same time— Sukumo's hand was holding the already lit flame.

The Little Mo, who had been pushed away, immediately repaired the wound on his chest. Then, with a wave of his hands, a large amount of Cursed Energy surrounded and enveloped Xuan's body, while the flaming arrow in the Sukumo's hand was released in an instant.

"The stove is open."

In an instant, the flames ignited all the Cursed Energy dust—the open, Unlimited Void also simultaneously maximized its output. The flames and mental control instantly pinned Xuan to the spot, while the Little Mo immediately stepped on the air, its body appearing in front of Xuan like a rocket—its jade-like hand, through the still-burning flames, grabbed Xuan's shoulder.

"Idle Transfiguration!"

The images conveyed by Satoru Gojo Sukuna, residing within his own Mahoraga body, and the crows flying in the sky—everyone in the control room was captivated by this attack.

"What use are Mahito's Cursed Technique to Cursed Spirit?"

As Itadori watched the images on the television, he couldn't suppress his questions, while the others around him turned their gazes to Kenjaku.

"Cursed Spirit beings also possess souls, so the Idle Transfiguration can certainly be used on Cursed Spirit."

"But the difference in their Cursed Energy is quite significant, isn't it?"

With the help of Yuji Itadori and Shoko Ieiri, Yuta Okkotsu was completely out of danger—she, who was staring intently at the screen, followed up on Kenjaku's words and asked the same question.

"Binding Vow and Curse are temporary effects on the soul and the body it's bound to. At this moment, Zenin Xuan must have received an immeasurable Curse, which is why he's become like this— Special Grade Vengeful Cursed Spirit."

"Is she the same as Rika?"

"It should be about the same, but compared to you and Rika —his situation is more delicate."

"Rika... became Special Grade Vengeful Cursed Spirit because we Curse each other. So, that guy..."

Yuta Okkotsu's gaze swept across the battlefield. Amidst the rising flames, the group couldn't discern whether Little Mo's Idle Transfiguration had taken effect. The flames from the Furnace: Open continued to intensify due to the dust from the Cursed Energy, forcing the crows to fly even further away from the battlefield, making it even harder for them to see clearly.

"It's probably because of the people he killed, or rather, those who disliked him and wanted to slander him—only this can explain Zenin Xuan's current state; he still retains the most basic form of Cursed Spirit, the form of Cursed Womb."

"... Can Gojo-sensei and his team still win?"

"The probability is very low. If you had asked me at the beginning, I would have said this—but now..."

As Kenjaku surveyed the battlefield, Kenjaku played on his lips amidst the raging flames.

Aren't we looking at the case with the lowest probability?

Satoru Gojo's four Six Eyes pinpointed Zenin Xuan's location amidst the churning flames—normally, Six Eyes could precisely lock onto a person's Cursed Energy, but this was not the case.

Whether it's the Little Mo or the dust filling the sky, all this Cursed Energy is of the same origin as Xuan—under such circumstances, Satoru Gojo could only see a hazy expanse of Cursed Energy.

"How's it going?"

Sukuna's words were directly transmitted to Satoru Gojo's mind, but Satoru Gojo simply shook his head at Sukuna.

"Ha, it should be very effective."

Satoru Gojo said hesitantly, his eyes filled with uncertainty—in the short hour he had fought Gen, he had already experienced too many impossibilities. Now that he had destroyed most of Tokyo, a slightly tougher battle was nothing.

Nervous, doubtful.

What was originally an intelligence-gathering mission that was as easy as eating and drinking for Satoru Gojo was now no easier than climbing to the heavens.

Because Satoru Gojo can really fly, but right now he really can't pinpoint Zenin Xuan's location.

Maintaining the high intensity of the battle, Satoru Gojo's mental state was not very good at the moment, but in order to avoid being turned to ashes by Gen's attack, he had to concentrate fully.

Compared to Satoru Gojo, who was fully focused on defending against Zenin Xuan, the Little Mo was in no better shape at the moment.

Creak.

Creak.

"Little Mo."

The moment it touched the Zenin Xuan, the Little Mo, who originally wanted to directly tear off the threads wrapped around the Xuan soul, hesitated for about 0.02 seconds. In this fleeting moment of hesitation, the Little Mo looked back once again at Xuan—its life with its master.

Fearing the loss of emotions, Xuan endowed Mahoraga with feelings, through conversations and exchanges, and through those rules and words.

wrong.

No, no, no!!!

Realizing what had happened, Little Mo immediately grabbed Xuan's shoulder tightly. The untied threads binding Xuan's body had already been reattached by Xuan, and Little Mo's so-called "tight grip" was now useless.

After all, in that moment of hesitation, Xuan had already activated the Mythical Beast Chimera, and Mahoraga's two arms had already been devoured by the shoulders that had turned into sharp teeth and a gaping maw. Black Cursed Energy wrapped around Xuan's entire body, while Xuan slightly turned over and gently tapped Mahoraga's chest with one foot.

Buzz!

The instant he sensed the fluctuation of the Cursed Energy, Satoru Gojo immediately activated his full-power Inviolability. Accompanied by the reverberating Cursed Energy, a blue light appeared from the center of the Furnace: Open. Simultaneously, the exploding ring instantly blasted both the Sukumo and the Gomo into a cloud of blood mist.

Looks like we can only use plan B.

Seeing the wheel fly Furnace: Open, Satoru Gojo immediately released the hand seal. The instant he released it, Satoru Gojo activated his Cursed Energy. The technique he had just learned instantly pulled Satoru Gojo's body away from the spot, and the black Cursed Energy ball, like a pillar of light falling from the sky, instantly destroyed Satoru Gojo's Unlimited Void. Having dodged, Satoru Gojo raised his hand, and three golden wheels returned to Satoru Gojo's body.

"Nine Ropes, Polarized Light"

"The Crow and Shomyo, the Between Front and Back"

"Hollow Technique, Zi!"

As the three golden Dharma Wheel spun back to Satoru Gojo's body, the three mouths on Satoru Gojo's body simultaneously opened.

Little Mo Sukuna, which originally Satoru Gojo one second, and the charging action, which took one second, were now reduced to about 0.2 seconds on this body.

A burst of purple energy erupted, and the black ball of Cursed Energy dodged Satoru Gojo's attack as it approached.

Even Zenin Xuan, who possessed inferior Six Eyes, could not observe the Cursed Energy being awakened in that extremely short time. After dodging the first spearhead, Gen discovered that behind the spear, dozens of spears were fired in rapid succession in a short period of time.

The addition of Mahoraga instantly enhanced Satoru Gojo's own Cursed Energy circulation. Now, as long as Satoru Gojo doesn't use the open-ended offensive Unlimited Void, he can complete everything he can do without consuming any mana.

What he needs to do now is to understand and replicate another field.

The Realm of the Mahito -- Self-Embodiment of Perfection.

Snap!!

Just as Xuan assumed the starting stance for the Piercing Blood Technique, Satoru Gojo immediately accelerated—the three Dharma Wheel above his head instantly appeared, and Satoru Gojo simultaneously connected with Mahoraga's "Cursed Technique".

Whoosh-- Boom!!!!

The Tiger Funeral Cursed Technique, combined with the Crimson Scale Leap, strengthens the body.

Combined with the Projection Sorcery and the Piercing Ox Cursed Technique, plus the rapid incantation from the three mouths, the Hollow Purple Fist was unleashed.

Before Zenin Xuan could react, he was smashed into pieces, just like Hakimi who was hit by a truck.

If the original Satoru Gojo's "Limitless" was part of the main character content, then the Malevolent Shrine and Ten Shadows who shared a body with Sukuna are DLC content.

At this point, the help that Mahoraga brought to Satoru Gojo could only be described as a "creative workshop."

With hundreds or even thousands of Cursed Technique, as long as you select the ones that are useful to you, your combat power will increase to an astonishing level.

After retrieving the Blood Manipulation and Projection Sorcery that Mahoraga was adapted to, Satoru Gojo used them almost in their original form with the help of the power of the Six Eyes. Gen, who had been reduced to a two-dimensional form, also reappeared in front of Satoru Gojo after a buzzing sound.

"So this is such a formidable opponent."

Having recovered, Zenin Xuan gripped his left shoulder, swinging his arms to stretch his muscles.

It seems you don't have a clear enough understanding of yourself.

"Does that mean I don't know I'm difficult to deal with, or that you are far stronger than me?"

"Ha, both."

I think so too.

The moment the words fell, accompanied by a whooshing sound, the two bodies simultaneously transformed into streaks of light and collided.

Almost every time Xuan exerted force, he used half of his total Cursed Energy. On Satoru Gojo's body, the three Satoru Gojo immediately began chanting incantations after the two collided. Xuan's numerically dominant attack instantly shattered Red Fist continuously merged with the Projection Sorcery. In a world set at 24 frames per second, the incantations popped out of the mouth frame by frame, and the chanting speed was even increasing.

Correspondingly, Xuan had already copied the Projection Cursed Technique, and the speed of their punches would only increase continuously with each exchange of blows. However, this increase was actually a bad thing for Xuan. At first, the speed at which he replenished his Cursed Energy was enough for Zenin Xuan to deliver 20 Cursed Energy blows to Satoru Gojo, but as the speed of his punches continued to rise, it was impossible for his afterimage-like fists to be wrapped with an immense Cursed Energy that was difficult to resist in every strike.

Gen, who had initially been in the lead, was struck in the chest by Satoru Gojo's increasingly accelerated Black Flash —accompanied by vomiting blood next to Satoru Gojo's face, Gen was violently sent flying—while Satoru Gojo chanted incantations and activated Projection Sorcery, closely following Gen's body.

"Phase, Twilight, Eyes of Wisdom"

"Phase, Paramita, Pillar of Light"

"Nine Ropes, Polarized Light, Crow and Shomyo, Between Front and Back"

The three incantations were simultaneously recited by Satoru Gojo, and one of the components used to kill the King of Curses reappeared on the battlefield.

"The Maximum Technique, Azure."

Satoru Gojo's fist slammed into Gen's body. The Azure that had been launched struck Gen's body in an instant, locking Gen in place "Limitless" in space. The black hole contracted and collapsed at Zenin Xuan's chest, controlling Gen's next moment.

"The Maximum Technique, Heh."

Satoru Gojo's other fist also landed on Gen's chest, right in the position of the Maximum Technique Ban Cang. The "Limitless" energy radiated outwards, shooting Gen's spatial orientation in one direction like a ray. Then, the red energy pulled Gen's body away, while the blue energy fixed Gen in place. And next, it was time for the third incantation to be unleashed.

Satoru Gojo's heavy footstep landed on Gen's chest—the power of the Cursed Energy rose as the incantation was recited.

"The Maximum Technique, this one."

The Limitless contraction and Limitless expansion occurred simultaneously. Originally, Zi was Cursed Technique that could annihilate everything and reduce objects to nothingness on a spatial scale. Under the Limitless bombardment, this attack, which even Satoru Gojo himself dared not withstand, was imprinted on Zenin Xuan Gen's immortal body by Satoru Gojo infusing almost all of his Cursed Energy.
