"Boom!!"
The vast barrier designed to keep Satoru Gojo out shattered with a thunderous crash!
With his blindfold removed, his Six Eyes were the same azure as the sky above.
Standing high in the air, Satoru Gojo took in most of Jujutsu High at a glance.
A bald curse user wielding an axe, and a bald Gakuganji playing a guitar.
At the barrier's entrance, two boiled eggs were duking it out.
On the long street leading into the forest, Utahime was chasing a child curse user with a blond ponytail.
Gojo figured Utahime was just walking a golden retriever. After all, Haruta Shigemo was far too weak in his perception.
In the heart of the forest, every student was accounted for and safe. In fact, Itadori and a few others had even increased their cursed energy levels.
The Six Eyes finally settled on the grievously wounded, dying special grade cursed spirit at Jiahao's feet.
Hanami had left a fairly deep impression on Satoru Gojo. After all, this was the first curse ever to escape from him.
"Jiahao."
In the blink of an eye, Satoru Gojo teleported down from a hundred meters in the air to stand before Jiahao. "Nice work. Did you get any useful information out of your interrogation?"
He simply assumed Jiahao had protected the students and captured the special grade cursed spirit alive. The barrier had cut off the surveillance footage transmitted by the crows earlier.
"Die!!"
The agitated Itadori suddenly attacked the dying Hanami, only for Jiahao to kick him away.
"It's no use, Itadori. Even if you silence Hanami, the people from Kyoto won't cover up my defection."
With that, Jiahao turned toward the stunned Satoru Gojo and pointed at the headband on his forehead, its emblem slashed through with a horizontal line. "Kakago, pfft... ahem!"
Having gotten far too deep into character, Uchiha Zuohao composed himself again. "As you can see, Satoru Gojo, I've decided to defect from Jujutsu High and lead an organization founded by cursed spirits!"
The dying Hanami thought, This brat has finally shown his true colors. His goal is to wipe out every special grade curse!
The Domain Expansion Hanami had unleashed in a desperate last stand had been brutally shattered. With Hanami now suffering cursed technique burnout, there was no longer any hope of leaving alive.
But this lunatic... had to die!
Otherwise, Jogo, Mahito, and Dagon would surely be tricked to their deaths too!
Helpless, Hanami struggled to lift that battered head toward Satoru Gojo. "Kill him. Wang Jiahao has already betrayed you humans!"
"Not only did he cooperate with us curses, he leaked a great deal of information about Jujutsu High!"
The cursed spirit's near-fatal injuries were undoubtedly Jiahao's work, yet the moment Hanami spoke, it was to enlist someone else to kill a partner.
A partner determined to take them both down... had they founded the Suicide Alliance or something?
Was the first step in their partnership stabbing each other in the back?
Satoru Gojo said, "...Looks like your partnership isn't going very well."
His gaze swept over the conflicted expressions of Fushiguro and the others before returning to Jiahao. "This time, it doesn't look like you're just having another episode and role-playing."
"Let's confirm this one more time!"
Satoru Gojo's tone grew stern. Sweeping the white hair off his forehead, he stared straight into Jiahao's scarlet eyes. "Do you really intend to betray Jujutsu High and join that hopeless bunch of cursed spirits?"
"Wherever this King stands, the future is bright!"
Jiahao grabbed Hanami's blood-red head and declared imperiously, "I'm taking Hanami out of here today. Let's see who the hell can stop me!"
Satoru Gojo said, "...Aren't you the one who inflicted those injuries?"
Jiahao tightened his fingers slightly, and another burst of blood erupted from Hanami's forehead. "Hanami betrayed the organization first and teamed up with your Jujutsu High sorcerers to fight me. I had no choice but to strike back!"
"But Hanami is still a member of our organization. I have a duty to bring Hanami back for a public execution!"
Gritting through the pain, Hanami cried, "Quick! Satoru Gojo, kill him now!!"
"Shut up!"
Satoru Gojo pointed a finger at Hanami's head, scarlet light gathering at its tip. "Since when does trash like you get to order me around?!"
"Boom!!"
The scarlet blast from Satoru Gojo's fingertip pierced Hanami's head in an instant, blowing up dozens of towering trees behind Hanami in succession!
But when the smoke cleared, Hanami was shocked to discover that death had not come.
"Not just yourself-you can make whatever your hands are touching intangible too?"
Satoru Gojo looked at the haughty Jiahao. "You're not seriously planning to take this trash with you and defy your teacher's discipline, are you?"
Jiahao said, "I applied for a teaching position in the first place. Strictly speaking, we should be colleagues!"
"I don't remember the principal approving your application!"
Before he finished speaking, Satoru Gojo's fist, wrapped in Blue cursed energy, passed through Jiahao's abdomen.
"Boom!"
Another vast swath of towering forest trees was ripped apart by the shock waves of cursed energy!
Protected by Kamui, Jiahao remained unhurt, but his expression grew a shade more serious.
"Was I seeing things just now?"
Itadori raised an arm to shield himself from the shock wave, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"My best friend, you weren't seeing things!"
Blocking the wind and sand with one hand, Todo narrowed his eyes. "Satoru Gojo's attack wasn't ineffective."
"For one brief instant, Gojo's cursed technique really did drag Jiahao's body back into reality!"
The Gojo Clan Inherited Cursed Technique, Limitless.
It could interfere with matter at the atomic level and govern space.
"Both techniques affect space, so their properties counter each other..."
Just as Todo had said, Satoru Gojo's fist, imbued with infinite attraction, had indeed disrupted the Kamui Dimension's technique effect.
But!
Jiahao flung Hanami's obstructive, mangled body aside and vanished.
A second later, Jiahao flashed out of the void and reached for Satoru Gojo.
"Boom!"
Extremely sensitive to spatial fluctuations, Satoru Gojo dodged aside, turning as he lashed a sweeping kick imbued with attraction at Jiahao's abdomen.
"He dodged?!"
Kasumi Miwa, who idolized Satoru Gojo, cried out in surprise.
She wasn't surprised by her idol's reaction speed. She couldn't understand why Satoru Gojo needed to dodge.
The stopping power within Limitless manifested as anything approaching Satoru Gojo slowing down the closer it got.
Wouldn't it be more effective to counterattack in the instant Jiahao's body became solid to attack?
"Idiot!"
Todo explained, "Didn't you hear what I just said? This isn't a one-sided technique counter!"
"Limitless can indeed interfere with his intangibility, but Kamui's intangibility also counters Limitless's stopping power."
"My guess is that Jiahao doesn't need to touch Satoru Gojo himself. He just needs to get close enough to transfer the entire space Gojo occupies into Kamui!"
After hearing Todo's explanation, everyone understood.
They had already seen the inside of the Kamui Dimension.
That boundless void had no directions, nor even an outer shell like a domain.
Even someone as powerful as Satoru Gojo might not be able to find a way out of that emptiness.
Against Jiahao's spatial intangibility, Satoru Gojo's Limitless defense lost its effect.
Against the attraction of Satoru Gojo's Cursed Technique Lapse, Jiahao's intangibility was also rendered nearly ineffective.
"Boom!!"
Red-and-black sparks burst apart, and azure flames flickered!
Abandoning their defenses at the same time, the two slammed fist against fist!
"Crack, crack!!"
The sharp crackle of rupturing space was deafening. A spatial vortex of three intermingling colors appeared where their fists met!
"Rumble!!"
Dozens, then hundreds of towering trees were shredded by the invisibly spreading spatial storm. Entire swaths of forest disintegrated!
"Fall back!!"
Todo shouted, grabbed Itadori by the neck, and raced backward.
Terrified of being sucked into the spatial black hole, Momo Nishimiya didn't even dare take to the air. She clung to Panda with her entire body, resisting the increasingly monstrous pull behind them!
"Splurt!!"
The gravely wounded Hanami was sucked into a spatial fissure, shredded inch by inch into ash.
Jiahao roared in anguish, "Satoru Gojo, you actually killed my ally!"
Satoru Gojo was speechless. "I saw that... you just kicked your ally into it yourself."
"I don't care!"
Jiahao stepped back to create some distance, then pulled a loudspeaker connected to the Broadcast Room out of the void. "I'm going to avenge Hanami!"
"I'm going to make rivers of blood flow through Jujutsu High!"
