If Satoru Gojo had maintained his current mental state, he might not have been captured by the Emperor during the Shibuya Incident.

It must be said that Miyauchi Hiyage's explanation did sound rather arrogant.

Shinomiya Kaguya and Yotsuya Miko had to admit that in the month they had known Satoru Gojo, they had come to understand why Satoru Gojo reputation among the students was so complicated.

If he could be a little more serious when teaching and carrying out tasks, and restrain his frivolous attitude, he wouldn't be constantly criticized by his students.

If Miyauchi Hiyage can truly reignite Satoru Gojo's pursuit of power, and with about half a year left until the Shibuya Incident, if Satoru Gojo can make further progress during this time, breaking the original story's ending and defeating Sukuna wouldn't be too difficult.

Miyauchi Hiyage paused for a moment, then looked at Yotsuya Miko Gojo-sensei Shinomiya Kaguya: "Besides, wouldn't it be more interesting for you two to defeat Sukuna?"

In response to Miyauchi Hiyage's teasing words, Yotsuya Miko pointed to herself and said, "I'm doing Sukuna, Miyauchi- kun, are you kidding me?"

In response, Miyauchi Hiyage spread his hands. "Your strength is growing very fast. If you can continue to maintain this pace, it's not impossible that you will defeat Ryomen Sukuna in the future."

"Putting everything else aside, if you could awaken your Stand in Morioh, you might be able to directly gain the power to fight Sukuna head-on?"

Shinomiya Kaguya didn't actually have much hope for this.

The probability of someone awakening a Stand is no more than 0.1%, if not one in ten thousand.

Of the twenty or thirty people who came to Morioh this time, it would be considered lucky if even one or two of them managed to awaken their Stands.

Even if you awaken a Stand, you may not necessarily gain great power.

"It's easy to say, but even you, Himakage, haven't awakened your Stand yet, so the probability of us awakening it is probably even lower."

Miyauchi Hiyage gently shook her head. "That's hard to say. Maybe someone will awaken their Stand tonight?"

Chapter 353: Tonio and Transcendent Cuisine

Around midnight, a moderate earthquake struck off the coast of Morioh.

The earthquake was not very strong, and thanks to the early warning from the Shinomiya Group, there were no casualties or economic losses.

This was already the limit of what Satoru Gojo could do. After all, once the Ley Line were manipulated, no matter how hard you tried to restore them, there would still be some impact. There had to be a way for the changes in the Ley Line to be released.

However, compared to the previous situation of at least a large earthquake, this is already the best possible outcome.

Moreover, if someone possessed eyes that could see through the earth's surface, they could see it clearly.

Deep beneath Morioh, fragments of mysterious meteorites that fell around the Morioh countless years ago have become active again, stimulated by this Ley Line anomaly.

If the Ley Line were to go berserk and cause a massive earthquake, it might actually create a spectacular sight like the Wall Eyes in Morioh.

However, unlike the Stand awakening process using arrows, where failure to awaken means death, the process of awakening a Stand using these Alien Meteorite fragments is much gentler, even silently applying this power to those chosen.

Therefore, no one immediately realized that something had changed in their body.

Only after the Stand's power is fully unleashed will these awakened individuals realize that a completely new power has appeared within them.

For the girls who came to Morioh specifically for the earthquake, their original travel plans were somewhat affected.

Many places have been temporarily closed due to the earthquake, and even the beach is no longer open to the public.

However, these girls were only there hoping to try their luck.

The main reason they came was that this gathering was a large offline event that more than half of the girls who kept Diary participated in.

The previous gatherings didn't attract many people; at least, the girls from outside Tokyo couldn't attend.

It was only during these three-day, three-night trips that they had the opportunity to come and join in the fun.

Under such circumstances, it was worthwhile for them to get to know Tonio Torrasadi, Stand User who awakened his Stand through his unparalleled culinary skills.

After obtaining a top-grade abalone from Morioh, this Stand User from Italy spent only one day creating a truly perfect and dreamlike dish.

Even in Yotsuya Miko's eyes, the moment the other party brought out the dish, a faint but not particularly noticeable light emanated from it.

After being infused with the power of a Stand, this dish can cure most of the world's known diseases in an extremely violent way.

It can even have a significant positive effect on the physical condition of the consumer.

Although this gain is not very significant, it is only an increase of about 3-5%.

But this abalone dish is already incredibly delicious, and it also has the added benefit of boosting physical fitness. For the girls who come to Morioh, being able to enjoy this dish is already an unexpected delight.

Shiina Mahiru and Tadokoro Megumi also learned a lot of new things from Tonio on this day.

Needless to say, Megumi Tadokoro Megumi, a professional chef from Totsuki Academy, realized the gap in skill between herself and Tonio in just one day, and she hardly left the kitchen during her stay in Morioh.

Shiina Mahiru also gained a lot of cooking experience from Tonio, which further advanced her research on glowing dishes.

With Miyauchi Hiyage's permission, she also shared the cooking tips she had received from Liu Maoxing.

Although Tonio and Tadokoro Megumi had never heard of glowing dishes before, Tonio showed great interest in this experience because of the testimony of Yotsuya Miko, a girl with super-level Spirit Vision.

He even had Yotsuya Miko by his side to watch over his cooking process.

The end result was that when he made those ordinary dishes, although they were already considered delicious, they did not shine.

Only when he wholeheartedly devotes himself to the preparation of the abalone can the dish emit a faint golden glow.

According to Yotsuya Miko's analysis, this golden light should not have much impact on his Stand ability.

Perhaps only pure skill can bring about such a transformation in cooking.

This discovery opened up a whole new world for Tonio.

After all, as a pure chef, after saving his seriously ill fiancée with his culinary skills and the power of his substitute, his only remaining obsession was to continue to improve his culinary skills.

Now, this insight is placed before him, like opening a door to a new world for him, telling him that there is still a long way to go in the future.

Although the path described in his experience may not suit his style, the wisdom he gained from those who came before him can still be very helpful in forging his own path.

If his previous cooking was only at the level of an average person, after seeing Liu Maoxing's cooking tips, his attention was already focused on those cooking techniques that could be called "Transcendent Cuisine".

Because of Shinomiya Kaguya's kindness in providing him with the Morioh abalone, and the insights shared by Shiina Mahiru, Tonio, who originally only intended to work for the Shinomiya Group for a while to repay her kindness before embarking on his journey to continue his travels, finally decided to stay in Japan and delve into more Transcendent Cuisine.

Even Shinomiya Kaguya hadn't expected that she was still trying to figure out what benefits she could offer to sway the other party.

As a result, because Yotsuya Miko's eyes could clearly see the radiance of the other person's dish after it was finished, he expressed his willingness to join the Jujutsu High, only asking to be a chef in the school's cafeteria.

Although Shinomiya Kaguya herself had hardly ever eaten at the Jujutsu High Jujutsu High's cafeteria, the Jujutsu High couldn't possibly refuse such a highly capable and extraordinary chef who was willing to join because of her.

Perhaps it's because the canteen of the Jujutsu High is really lacking a good chef.

After learning about this from Shinomiya Kaguya, that very evening, Masamichi Yaga, the principal of the Jujutsu High, personally came to Morioh to interview Tonio.

After tasting the dream-like abalone dish prepared by Tonio, he immediately grasped Tonio's hands and said that the canteen of the Jujutsu High could be completely handed over to Tonio in the future, and that all aspects of welfare and even the canteen's operating funds would be tilted to the maximum extent.

After all, Tonio's cooking and his extraordinary powers are indeed worth recruiting for the Jujutsu High.

Unlike the supernatural systems of Shinto, Buddhism, and Onmyoji, which are inherently neutral and positive, the Cursed Energy used by Sorcerers is a collection of negative energy.

Those extraordinary priests and priests, relying on the nature of their own power, although not everyone can use healing secrets, can always find a few people in a region who have healing abilities to treat extraordinary individuals.

However, in the entire Jujutsu Society, the number of doctors is quite small.

First, Sorcerers must master the Reverse Cursed Technique in order to transform the negative energy of Cursed Energy into positive energy.

At the same time, it is also necessary to be able to apply the healing effects of the Reverse Cursed Technique to others.

Finally, those who master this Reverse Cursed Technique must possess sufficient Cursed Energy to perform the treatment correctly.

In the entire Jujutsu Society, there are very few people who can reach this level, including only a handful, such as Shoko Ieiri.

It's fair to say that this skill is something that cannot be achieved by one person through mere effort alone.

For this reason, Shoko Ieiri the Jujutsu High, is arguably the busiest person in the entire school, bar none.

The other party's daily routine consisted of treating Sorcerers from all over the country, while also taking time to conduct various kinds of research.

Sometimes, when Shoko Ieiri is too busy, they have to spend a considerable amount of money and use various favors to find a supernatural doctor from the Shinto for treatment.

Although most of the dishes Tonio makes nowadays are only for ordinary people, Masamichi Yaga still sensed the potential of the dish from the abalone dish Tony made.

Masamichi Yaga even felt that the role the other party could play in the future would definitely not be less than that of the Shoko Ieiri.

It's even possible that the existence of Tonio, this extraordinary chef, might encourage more awakened superhumans to join the Jujutsu High.

Faced with such a warm invitation from the principal of the Jujutsu High, Tonio naturally didn't stand on ceremony. He simply mentioned some very normal chef's rules and thus reached a binding agreement with Masamichi Yaga that resembled an employment contract.

This constraint doesn't restrict Tonio much; it's more of a promise made by Tonio no Masamichi Yaga to Tonio so that he can manage the cafeteria at the Jujutsu High with peace of mind. It can be said that most of the content of this constraint is Masamichi Yaga's self-imposed limitation.

Masamichi Yaga was worried that after the higher-ups in the spellcasting world learned of Tonio's abilities, they would make Tonio do work that he didn't want to do. So, he simply used restraint to cut off the higher-ups' thoughts.

If the higher-ups in the sorcery world hold them accountable in the future, the Masamichi Yaga will be able to provide an explanation—that in order to get such an outstanding extraordinary chef to join the Jujutsu High, they had no choice but to use this method, otherwise what if the other party was taken away by Shinto or other extraordinary forces?

Of course, Masamichi Yaga's trip wasn't entirely for the sake of Tonio, this extraordinary chef.

The night before last, when Satoru Gojo returned to the Jujutsu High with the vessel for the resurrected Sukuna, a boy named Yuji Itadori, he said he would completely revive Sukuna in the boy's body in order to eradicate the existence of Sukuna, the former King of Curses.

This old man was genuinely taken aback by Satoru Gojo's somewhat crazy idea.

He spent the whole day yesterday dealing with this matter, but the attitude of the higher-ups in the Spellcasting world was still ambiguous.

Just like what happened to Yuta Okkotsu half a year ago, the higher-ups in the Jujutsu system wanted to kill Yuji Itadori before Sukuna caused any serious damage.

According to the higher-ups in the sorcery, they probably knew that Sukuna wasn't truly dead and would be resurrected sooner or later.

They also knew that killing Yuji Itadori directly would only temporarily prevent Sukuna's full return.

But as long as we can take care of the present, that's fine.

They just need to Sukuna being resurrected during their "term of office".

Masamichi Yaga was still pondering, since no matter what choice he made, it seemed that he would have to pay the price with the life of an innocent person like Yuji Itadori.

It was only after Satoru Gojo expressed Miyauchi Hiyage's point of view that he thought of coming over to talk to Miyauchi Hiyage in person.

His purpose in coming to Morioh was to recruit Tonio, meet with Miyauchi Hiyage, and observe Shinomiya Kaguya's "friends" to see if any of the girls had the potential to join the Jujutsu High.

Although he hadn't paid special attention to Shinomiya Kaguya 'Shinomiya Family private friendships, several of the people she invited to her trip to Morioh were "suspects" that the Jujutsu High had recently come to focus on.

Kasumigaoka Utaha, Hoshino Ai, Gokō Ruri, and the other girls who are close to Miyauchi Hiyage.

To be honest, they were also observing Shinomiya Kaguya, who had recently awakened a supernatural power called "telekinesis".

The girls in the first few sentences were using their supernatural powers to exorcise Vengeful Spirit. In the process of completing the request from the Diary, they left some traces, which made the Jujutsu High, which was originally going to eliminate the local Vengeful Spirits, notice these girls who suddenly possessed near-first-level supernatural abilities.

After realizing that these girls, who had all awakened around the same time recently, seemed to be maintaining some contact.

Although Masamichi Yaga did not intend to delve into the reasons for these girls' extraordinary awakening, he naturally needed to ascertain their personalities and understand their attitudes toward the Reverse Side World.

If these girls can pass the assessment, they can indeed be admitted to the Jujutsu High as temporary students.

Anyway, this kind of thing has already been broken with Miyauchi Hiyage and Mai Sakurajima, so a few more examples wouldn't be too many.

Of course, the most important reason is that these people have a good relationship with Miyauchi Hiyage.

Miyauchi Hiyage, a superhuman who has only recently awakened his special-grade strength, has only witnessed the Domain Expansion once, and has already developed a prototype of the domain in just one or two weeks. Even Satoru Gojo, the strongest Sorcerers, can feel a slight threat from him. Now, he is able to influence the attitudes of Masamichi Yaga and even the Jujutsu High to a great extent.

Chapter 354: The Miyauchi Hiyage Possesses Divine Potential

The Masamichi Yaga come from afar, so Miyauchi Hiyage has to give this headmaster of the Jujutsu High a bit of face.

After experiencing Tonio's abilities and immediately reaching an agreement with him and completing the corresponding restrictions to ensure Tonio's treatment and privileges, Masamichi Yaga approached Miyauchi Hiyage with a host of questions.

The two chatted in the room for an entire afternoon, basically covering all aspects of life.

The topics discussed were numerous and varied.

Miyauchi Hiyage knew the character of Masamichi Yaga. Although he was restricted by the higher-ups in the jutsu system, his heart was always set on the Jujutsu High. He had always acted as a lubricant between Satoru Gojo and the higher-ups in the jutsu system.

His goal was simple: to give the Jujutsu High greater influence in the Jujutsu Society and to facilitate a smoother and more peaceful transfer of power.

However, it turns out that the higher echelons of sorcery had long been utterly corrupt. Most of them had become utterly incompetent and ruthless over the past century, their influence waning and fading.

Ultimately, in the original work, the higher-ups in the sorcery world wanted to obtain the method for creating Intelligent Cursed Corpses from Masamichi Yaga. So, taking advantage of the opportunity when Satoru Gojo was sealed away, they instructed the principal of Kyoto Jujutsu High to kill him.

Although the manner of death was somewhat hasty, judging from the other party's behavior in the manga, Miyauchi Hiyage still had some trust in this old man, so there were naturally some things he could tell him.

For example, he "saw" that Sukuna's resurrection was an inevitable outcome, and that all of this was orchestrated by someone lurking in the shadows.

There's also the connection between Yuji Itadori and Sukuna.

Why does Yuji Itadori, an ordinary-looking high school student, possess the special ability to suppress Ryomen Sukuna?

And why did he happen to appear at this exact moment?

Although Miyauchi Hiyage didn't directly say anything about the matter, it was clear that he was secretly observing and understanding the situation.

Of course, Masamichi Yaga probably never imagined that Yuji Itadori's grandfather would be the reincarnation of Sukuna he was even born.

As a result, Sukuna will inevitably be revived on the day his younger brother dies.

And because of this connection between Yuji Itadori and Sukuna, Yuji Itadori is indeed the most suitable vessel for Sukuna's resurrection.
