Chapter Summaries

Hajime Kashimo endured Ryu Ishigori’s enhanced blast and used its flash to attack Takako Uro. Ryu’s follow-up cannon tore off Uro’s arm, leaving her gravely wounded as Kashimo confronted him about his ruthlessness.

• Ryu Ishigori fired an enhanced Cursed Energy Cannon, and Hajime Kashimo chose to block it with his iron staff.
• Kashimo used the explosion’s white light to get behind Takako Uro and struck her with his electrified staff.
• Kashimo’s blow sent Uro flying toward Ryu, who immediately fired a Cursed Energy Cannon at her.
• Uro failed to deflect the blast in time, and it tore off her right arm before she crashed onto the rooftop.
• Kashimo landed and called Ryu ruthless for attacking Uro without hesitation.

Yuta Okkotsu returned to the rooftop just as Ryu Ishigori prepared to finish the gravely wounded Takako Uro, and he blamed himself for leaving her alone. He summoned Rika to protect Uro and opened his domain against Ishigori and Hajime Kashimo.

• Ryu Ishigori and Hajime Kashimo prepared to kill Takako Uro while she lay unable to fight.
• Yuta Okkotsu returned after defeating Dhruv Lakdawalla and found Uro on the verge of death.
• Takako Uro demanded extra credit from Okkotsu, while he felt guilty for leaving her behind.
• Yuta Okkotsu put on Rika's ring and asked Rika to keep Uro safe.
• Yuta Okkotsu opened his domain, Authentic Mutual Love, as Hajime Kashimo watched with interest.

Yuta Okkotsu defeated Ryu Ishigori almost instantly after the two expanded their domains, leaving Hajime Kashimo as the only opponent in the Sendai Colony. Kashimo challenged Okkotsu, who refused and declared himself stronger than anyone Kashimo had ever faced.

• Yuta Okkotsu expanded Authentic Mutual Love as Hajime Kashimo used Hollow Wicker Basket and Ryu Ishigori expanded his own domain, canceling both guaranteed-hit effects.
• Okkotsu used the brief clash to close in and slash Ryu Ishigori across the chest, knocking him unconscious.
• Kashimo maintained Hollow Wicker Basket, unable to release his hands without becoming vulnerable to Okkotsu's domain.
• Okkotsu recognized Kashimo as the strongest sorcerer from four hundred years ago, and Kashimo admitted he had come to Sendai looking for strong opponents.
• Okkotsu refused Kashimo's challenge, saying Kashimo was no match for him and declaring himself the strongest jujutsu sorcerer Kashimo had encountered.
