Satoru Gojo was still questioning him when a branch covered in white flowers suddenly came flying from afar.
It struck the ground before Gojo like a javelin!
There was absolutely no killing intent?
If not for the Six Eyes' ability to perceive cursed energy, anyone else would probably have been skewered.
Another ene... ooh, flowers~
After piercing the ground, the branch abruptly began to grow, sprouting fresh leaves and branches while spreading brightly colored flowers across the ground it touched.
Gojo, who had been on guard against the approaching enemy, suddenly seemed to lose his wits. The sea of flowers instantly soothed most of the hatred and irritation in his heart.
Wait, something's wrong?
Smack.
Gojo lightly slapped his own face, snapping himself out of it.
This is a cursed technique, right?
It doesn't just reduce the urge to kill, but hostility too. Does it actually reduce the enemy's... will to fight?
Yet in that brief moment of distraction, the spreading branches wrapped around Itadori's ankle and swung him into the air with tremendous force.
Hanami still did not rashly attempt to take Jogo away. Only after using Itadori's safety as bait once again did Hanami emerge.
While Gojo turned to look at Itadori, Hanami snatched up Jogo's remaining head and immediately concealed Hanami's own cursed energy.
Hanami was indeed slow, but this was a forest. Fighting on home turf might not guarantee victory, but getting away was a piece of cake, wasn't it?
Time to go, time to go...
After rescuing Itadori, Gojo immediately checked the direction they had fled.
They got away. They actually got away!
Fuck...
If all five traces of cursed residue back then came from monsters of this caliber, what the hell had Kamo Xu been facing?
Damn it, damn it, damn it!
These scumbags...
