Is Hikage Miyauchi Their Ancestor or Something? (Part 2)

Even though a single strike could cut through dozens of pieces of flesh, Tsugikuni Yoriichi didn't actually make that many cuts.

To be able to chop off so many pieces of meat so precisely in such a short time is already an amazing skill.

In terms of physique alone, Miyauchi Hiyage is clearly not yet at the level of Tsugikuni Yoriichi.

However, he was facing Maki Zenin, whose physique was not as good as Kamishiro Rize's, but Maki Zenin's combat intelligence was much higher than Kamishiro Rize's.

Despite deliberately holding back, not using the Sun Breathing Thirteenth Form Miyauchi Hiyage, nor employing any of the techniques for guiding flames from the Kusanagi Style, and not even using Nichirin Blades, and with Sun Breathing Sword Style only able to generate waves of hot sword energy, he fought Maki Zenin for a full half hour before finally stopping because the sword in his hand could not withstand the high temperature.

Tanjuro Kamado was right. When you maintain your breathing while Hinokami Kagura, you can dance for a whole day and night without getting tired.

But after stopping, the life force consumed and the accumulated fatigue are enough to keep an ordinary person in bed for three days and three nights.

In the Demon Slayer Corps, only Tsugikuni Yoriichi could cause so much trouble with his powerful physique, and now there's also the equally amazing Miyauchi Hiyage.

"They're really impressive. They use the same dozen or so moves over and over, along with some interconnected sword techniques, but it's almost flawless. There's no way to find a breakthrough."

After Miyauchi Hiyage Himakage waved to signal a ceasefire, Maki Zenin, already drenched in sweat, released her naginata and sat down on the grass, completely abandoning any semblance of femininity.

Upon closer inspection, her arms were trembling slightly.

That was the effort made over the past half hour to break the Sun Breathing Sword Style.

Unfortunately, the flaws in the Sun Breathing are not so easy to find. At least, even the Muzan and Tsugikuni Yoriichi brother, who studied the Sun Breathing for hundreds of years, were unable to figure it out.

When facing an enemy stronger than oneself, the thirteenth type, which combines the first twelve types to form a cycle, can also allow the user to fight the enemy for a longer period of time.

Even hundreds of years later, when Muzan faced the Sun Breathing in the final battle, he still didn't have a good way to deal with it.

Tsugikuni Yoriichi, who was born with Transparent World, has indeed pushed the Sun Breathing Sword Style to its limit.

Unless one possesses the ability to launch a mental attack or has the power to completely overwhelm the user, it is very difficult to break the Sun Breathing Sword Style using conventional methods.

Even opening Simple Domain probably wouldn't work.

But none of this is something that Maki Zenin can currently achieve.

"Want to learn? I can teach you. With your physique, you should be able to master it."

Faced with Miyauchi Hiyage's teasing, Maki Zenin rolled her Byakugan and said, "My sword style is already established, and it would take more time to adjust it now."

"Besides, my physique is not as good as yours. Even if I master this sword technique, I can't possibly use it better than you. I don't know how you improved so quickly. How exactly do you train?"

She sighed in that way.

During their last meeting, Miyauchi Hiyage could be sensed that he was noticeably rusty in his use of these sword techniques.

But after only ten days, the other party used even more exquisite swordsmanship, and his proficiency was quite high. In fact, his combat experience had also increased dramatically.

It made her wonder if the other party had been going to various kendo dojos in Tokyo to challenge them in the past few days, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy to improve practical combat experience under normal circumstances.

After hesitating for a moment, Maki Zenin coughed lightly. "However, it's still fine to exchange ideas. I remember that Nanami-senpai taught you some taijutsu tips before, right? We can discuss kendo first, and then I'll guide you on taijutsu."

However, faced with Maki Zenin's somewhat arrogant response, Miyauchi Hiyage's response made her slightly vulnerable.

"I just got my hands on a really interesting set of physical techniques these past few days. I probably won't need much guidance until I figure it out myself."

Maki Zenin immediately stood up from the grass.

"Come on, you've rested enough. We've finished our swordsmanship exchange. Now let me see what's going on with your physical techniques."

At this point, Shinomiya Kaguya and Yotsuya Miko, who had been watching from the sidelines and secretly taking pictures with their Diary, rushed over to break up the fight.

To be honest, even though Shinomiya Kaguya knew beforehand that Miyauchi Hiyage had fully mastered the Sun Breathing Sword Style, and had long known from the Ubuyashiki Family that the Sun Breathing Sword Style was the origin of a technique that surpassed other Breathing Technique.

But she never expected that this sword technique, which had been passed down for hundreds of years, could shine so brightly in the hands of Miyauchi Hiyage.

That smooth sword technique will be the only designated Sun Breathing Sword Style training guide in the group for a long time to come.

Moreover, the opponent had not yet used the Nichirin Blades or the Thirteenth Type.

I wonder what it was like when Miyauchi Hiyage used the Sun Breathing with the Nichirin Blades yesterday.

She could only lament her lack of talent, as she had not yet reached the threshold of Sun Breathing cultivation.

If she could master the Sun Breathing Sword Style, she would probably reach at least the second level of strength.

Upon seeing Miyauchi Hiyage mention physical techniques, Shinomiya Kaguya immediately thought of the "Women's Self-Defense Techniques" that the You Know Who had shared in open source.

She used more than ten Reading Points to master the basics of that so-called self-defense technique.

Given Shiina Mashiro's attitude towards Miyauchi Hiyage, it's quite normal that she would teach this martial art to Miyauchi Hiyage without reservation, and then the two of them would study it together.

I wonder how talented Miyauchi Hiyage is in this area.

If the other person also displays amazing talent in physical skills, then there will probably be another set of instructional videos in the Chat Group.

But that's obviously not the time.

They've just had a high-intensity match, they need to rest for a while before talking again.

She could see that Maki Zenin's arms were trembling slightly; even if it were recorded as an instructional video, it wouldn't be perfect.

In comparison, Yotsuya Miko saw much more.

Just like last time, she saw the same special effects of flames dancing in her eyes.

It was precisely because of these special effects that she clearly felt the restraint of the Miyauchi Hiyage.

He was clearly capable of unleashing far more power, yet he kept suppressing it.

Why is it that the other person can reach this level after only half a month of awakening, while she has been awakened for more than a month and is still only at the level of being able to see?

Even just making her eyesight a little better than before would be good.

The only thing that could comfort her was that she was now qualified to carry out the simplest investigative tasks and had a certain degree of self-defense against ordinary Vengeful Spirit.

Her current thought is that other students at school all have their own things to do, and it's impossible for them to ask a top-tier student like Satoru Gojo for help.

Miyauchi Hiyage Himekage, on the other hand, has a very good personality. In the past ten days or so, whenever she had questions about swordsmanship and Ripple Chi Kung and went to her privately for a chat, she would patiently explain things to her.

More importantly, after she unlocked the commission module half a month later than the other girls, she unlocked a mission to perform commissions with Miyauchi Hiyage within a month (a reward is automatically calculated for each completed mission, and an additional reward is given based on the number of missions performed after the mission period ends). However, she was too embarrassed to tell anyone about it.

Moreover, this commission is limited to Miyauchi Hiyage, so she doesn't need to worry about anyone else taking it away for the time being.

She certainly saw the You Know Who's evaluation of Miyauchi Hiyage in the diary.

However, she still believed in Miyauchi Hiyage's character, and at the same time, she didn't think she was so beautiful that Miyauchi Hiyage would take a liking to her.

Perhaps among ordinary people, she is indeed quite good-looking.

However, Shiina Mashiro, Shiina Mahiru, Tohru, Kasumigaoka Utaha, and Shinomiya Kaguya...

Yotsuya Miko felt that when she stood next to these overly beautiful girls, she wasn't actually that different from ordinary girls.

Moreover, she doesn't have anything special about her, so it's even less likely that Miyauchi Hiyage would have any feelings for her. As long as she invites Shinomiya Kaguya and Miyauchi Hiyage together, she won't have to worry about these things.

So now she naturally needs to win over Miyauchi Hiyage so that he won't feel comfortable refusing her later.

Her request wasn't high; she just wanted to use up one of the Miyauchi Hiyage hours so she could at least get a basic living allowance.

Otherwise, if she hasn't completed the task by the time the task time expires, she will become the second person in the Chat Group, after Shinomiya Kaguya, to be publicly shamed and humiliated.

After the two girls came over to comfort her, Maki Zenin ultimately decided not to persist and instead planned to rest for a while until she was more recovered in the afternoon.

Moreover, she could also find out from Shinomiya Kaguya what the origin of the martial arts technique that Miyauchi Hiyage possessed was.

She knew that Miyauchi Hiyage. Apart from Chichibu's childhood friend from the Shinto Reverse Side World, the rest were mostly people from the Jujutsu Society.

Kento Nanami's physical skills are from the lineage of Jujutsu High, so the physical skills his opponent possesses might be some old relic that Shinomiya Kaguya, that rich woman, somehow acquired.

Having already learned a lesson from the Sun Breathing Sword Style, she knew that these ancient artifacts could unleash extraordinary power in the right person, and she felt she needed to be mentally prepared.

So the three girls got together and started discussing the Kusanagi-ryu Ancient Martial Arts.

Meanwhile, Miyauchi Hiyage finally met Masamichi Yaga, the Jujutsu High.

Although the principal of this Jujutsu High was nominally only a first-level Sorcerers, he had actually already reached the level of a special-level sorcerer. However, he had always hidden himself very well. Even though the higher-ups in sorcery had always been suspicious of him, they still allowed him to become the Jujutsu High based on his own abilities.

While serving as principal, he gradually improved the school's atmosphere without direct opposition from the Jujutsu High -ups in the jutsu school, and cultivated a group of outstanding Sorcerers, including Satoru Gojo.

The current status of Sorcerers in Tokyo 'Reverse Side World can be attributed to this middle-aged man for about one-third of the credit, with the remaining two-thirds going to Satoru Gojo. Meanwhile, the higher-ups in the sorcery world are completely dragging their feet, at least making room for other Sorcerers to fill one-third of the positions.

At the same time, Masamichi Yaga is one of the few people in the world who can make Satoru Gojo obey him, and he also perfectly acts as a lubricant between Satoru Gojo and the higher-ups in the jutsu, allowing the two sides, which seem impossible to coexist, to maintain a superficial peace.

From any perspective, this man is an extraordinary person, but unfortunately, he is still a bit naive.

He wanted to use gentle methods to allow his disciples to take over the discourse power in the Jujutsu Society as smoothly as possible.

But the higher-ups in the sorcery world are just occupying positions without doing their jobs, preferring to use forbidden methods to maintain their lives rather than stepping down from their seats.

After all, those high-ranking figures in sorcery had already been killed a hundred years ago.

Even without Ryomen Sukuna's appearance, Satoru Gojo would probably have gotten fed up in a few years and ended up cleaning up those old guys, just like in the original story. Ryomen Sukuna's appearance just brought that process forward a bit.

It could be said that the best decision those conservative old Deng made was to kill Yuji Itadori from the very beginning.

Although they were unaware of the subtle blood relationship between Yuji Itadori and Ryomen Sukuna, and this wasn't the first time they'd made a similar decision—the old guys had done the same thing when Yuta Okkotsu berserk before.

In short, they will kill anyone who threatens the stability of the Jujutsu Society.

They wanted to kill Satoru Gojo, but he already possessed extraordinary strength even before enrolling in the Jujutsu High. After his near-death experience and mastery of the Reverse Cursed Technique and the Domain Expansion, he became unstoppable and completely exceeded their control.

Faced with such power, they could only grit their teeth and acquiesce to the Tokyo Sorcery High's unconventional ways over the years.

If it weren't for Kento Nanami's reminder last night, Miyauchi Hiyage's control of the flames would probably have aroused some unwarranted covetousness towards him among those old Dengs.

What surprised Miyauchi Hiyage was that the way Masamichi Yaga looked at him today seemed a little strange.

"Principal Moth, may I ask you a question?"

Miyauchi Hiyage took the initiative to ask the question.

The other person's eyes seemed to be confirming his identity.

Is there something wrong with his identity?

Or did the other party notice Tohru's unusual behavior through their own perspective?

Is it too much to eat a whole pot of rice in one meal?

Miyauchi Hiyage pondered this in his heart.

He plans to go out later and get some playing cards to do some divination.

Masamichi Yaga then shook his head and withdrew his gaze.

"No, I'm just a little curious about you. After all, you're someone that Satoru Gojo and Kento Nanami both have their eyes on, and your videos have indeed helped us find a lot of newly formed Vengeful Spirit in advance through the comments section, preventing a lot of casualties."

He would never tell Miyauchi Hiyage Himekage the truth.

He received a message from the high-ranking members of the sorcery group as soon as he got up this morning.

At first, he thought it was some kind of accusation or inhuman instruction, but who would have thought it was actually a rare show of care from the higher-ups in the sorcery world.

Moreover, the focus of their care was not only on all the students of the Jujutsu High, but also specifically included Miyauchi Hiyage, a boy who is currently only an unofficial member of the Jujutsu High.

This deliberate explanation made him realize almost instantly that the higher-ups in the sorcery were after Miyauchi Hiyage, a boy with considerable talent.

But even after studying that letter of concern more than ten times, he still couldn't find any hint of conspiracy or trickery in the words.

On the contrary, it seems that they genuinely hope that Miyauchi Hiyage, an unofficial member, can enjoy more meticulous care than ordinary students at the Jujutsu High.

He also said that the other party might become a pillar of the Jujutsu Society in the future, and that he would try his best to meet the boy's needs as long as they were not too excessive, so that the boy could feel the warmth of the Jujutsu Society.

Even after studying it for a long time, the Masamichi Yaga Sect could only figure out that the higher-ups in the sorcery were trying to give the other party better benefits and deepen their feelings for the Jujutsu High. If the other party was to carry out a commission, it would be best to arrange commissions that were easy to do and rewarding, so as not to put the other party in danger.

So, is Miyauchi Hiyage the illegitimate son of some high-ranking sorcerer?

But his identity information is quite comprehensive, and he even has a twin sister who looks quite similar. He doesn't seem like the illegitimate child of any important person at all.

To be honest, Miyauchi Hiyage is more like the ancestor of those old guys.

The Masamichi Yaga, of course, would never know that all of this was due to the efforts of a cunning and ruthless person, a gift bestowed upon them by a powerful and cunning individual.

In a sense, it was indeed a task assigned to them by the ancestors of those high-ranking sorcerers, who had various leverage over them.

Anyway, he's just a descendant favored by the ancestors, as long as he's not a troublemaker like Satoru Gojo.

At least for now, Miyauchi Hiyage seems to be a guy with no ambition.

For more than half a month since his transcendent awakening, although he has good talent, he has been busy with things in the Front World and has only come to the Jujutsu High once.

People who lack ambition like this can never affect their positions.

Although Masamichi Yaga couldn't figure out who was backing Miyauchi Hiyage, he wouldn't care too much about the other party's actions as long as Miyauchi Hiyage didn't cause trouble at the Jujutsu High.

It's just a matter of supporting someone for free. The Jujutsu High is currently quite well-funded, so this can be considered as using the resources that Miyauchi Hiyage obtained for them to train Miyauchi Hiyage.
