"You're Lord Tengen!?" Sōsuke Aizen hair, looked at the inhuman-looking being before him and smiled slightly. "What are you suppressing? What are you afraid of? What have you gained by absorbing ordinary humans!?"
"You are..." Tengen, with his ugly face and four pairs of eyes, stared at Sōsuke Aizen in shock. "You've actually evolved to a higher level!? Why don't you suppress yourself? Aren't you afraid of harming this world itself if you do that?"
"Harm the world itself!?" Sōsuke Aizen curled into a slight smile. "What does that have to do with me?! Survival of the fittest—from the moment I was born into this world, it has been constantly telling me this principle. I don't think the world itself is unaware of it! If the world cannot contain me, then I will find a larger world. If the world hinders my evolution, then I will wipe out everything that hinders my evolution! I will stand above the sky, looking down upon everything! Including the entire world itself!"
"Too arrogant! You're absolutely too arrogant! Someone as conceited as you will eventually be consumed by your own power!" Tengen shook his head repeatedly upon hearing this. "What I see and hear is all above yours! I know the past and present, I know the future, I know everything, but as far as I know, there is absolutely no existence as arrogant and conceited as you in this world. You are more self-centered than Ryomen Sukuna, more arrogant than Satoru Gojo. Why would someone like you exist in this world!? I don't understand!"
"You don't need to understand," Sōsuke Aizen smiled. "You will become a part of me, a stepping stone in my evolutionary journey, helping me reach even greater heights, propelling me towards the limit of progress. I will eventually reach the pinnacle of evolution, becoming the ultimate of all. At that time, you will naturally understand why an existence like me exists."
"Interesting..." Tengen relaxed his furrowed brows upon hearing this. "Indeed interesting. In that case, if you can do it, then devour me!"
"So you've already started watching?" Sōsuke Aizen stared intently at Tengen for a moment, then suddenly realized, "I see. Is this a relief for you?"
"This is liberation." Tengen nodded. "I have absorbed countless innocent lives. My immortality has made me the greatest curse upon human society! How ridiculous that a Cursed Technique who took it upon himself to eradicate curses would end up becoming the very curse he once slaughtered. The dragon-slaying boy, when he opened his eyes, had already transformed into a black dragon that had bitten off the roots of the world. But this was not what I wanted."
"I will grant your wish!" Sōsuke Aizen said, his body suddenly splitting open, revealing a huge mouth. "You will become me, and I will grant your wish."
The next second, that enormous mouth swallowed Tengen whole in an instant!
"Oh... I see..." Sōsuke Aizen, who had devoured Tengen's entire existence, closed his eyes and received everything from Tengen, including his memories, Cursed Technique experience, and abilities.
"I see. So your Cursed Technique is immortality?" As Sōsuke Aizen spoke, his body suddenly changed, and in his ethereal state, he gained another pair of eyes.
"Unfortunately, this ability is somewhat useless to me; I've already transcended death." Sōsuke Aizen shook his head in disappointment. "However, this is a beginning. At least I've seen a direction for further evolution, which is a good start."
"Next, we will directly devour the very essence of this world..."
Let everything return to nothingness, and let me sit alone on my high seat!
Sōsuke Aizen said this, he transformed back from a brown-haired Soul Reaper into a large, flapping moth with its wings spread behind it.
"I will devour all the Cursed Energy in this world!" Sōsuke Aizen said, activating his self-created Kidō that he had prepared beforehand. Accompanied by a burst of purple light, all the Cursed Energy in the world suddenly disappeared.
In an instant, the abnormal phenomena throughout the world began to subside!
The village, once haunted by vengeful spirits... is no longer haunted by them.
The slit-mouthed woman at the street corner, responding to the call from heaven, vanished completely.
Delia, who was in the toilet, finally stopped causing trouble.
The various curses born of human anger are rapidly diminishing... and the world is beginning to move towards peace.
Furthermore, when the world is free from curses, it will naturally no longer need Cursed Technique! The purpose of Cursed Technique is only to combat curses; when everyone in the world no longer possesses Cursed Energy, Cursed Technique will naturally disappear completely...
The top-grade cursed artifact, Heavenly Restriction— everything related to Cursed Energy will disappear, which is why the Panda was the first to be silenced.
"Everyone, I'm suddenly feeling a bit sleepy." The Panda smiled slightly at everyone. "How should I put it? It's just that I feel like if I fall asleep like this, I might never wake up again!"
"No, Panda, you will definitely wake up again." Toge Inumaki held Panda's hand and said earnestly.
"Hey! Toge Inumaki, your mouth!" Everyone was surprised when Toge Inumaki spoke, because Toge Inumaki was a Word Master, and now he spoke without any restraint.
" Toge Inumaki, you..." Everyone looked at Toge Inumaki in surprise.
"My Cursed Energy seems to have vanished..." Toge Inumaki smiled slightly, his eyes filled with uncertainty.
"Kid! The Cursed Energy in this world is disappearing." Just as everyone was wondering what was happening, Toko suddenly heard Grandpa Sukuna's voice in his mind, "Soon, all of us curses will probably disappear, hahaha... A world without Cursed Energy, without curses, without Cursed Technique is about to be born, how amazing!"
"A world without Cursed Energy! Without curses! Without Cursed Technique?" Toko asked, somewhat surprised.
"This world will no longer have us." Ryomen Sukuna seemed to have understood everything. "But you will still be here, and in the end, this will still be your world!"
" Sukuna, what do you mean by this?!" Toko, confused.
"If you don't understand, go ask someone knowledgeable around you!" Sukuna's voice trailed off. "My time is running out, let that guy explain!"
Immediately afterwards, the voices of the Ryomen Sukuna disappeared from Itadori's mind, and everything finally returned to calm.
"The wise person next to me?" Toko kept looking at the people around him, and finally his gaze settled on Sōgo Shihoin, who was smiling and watching everyone.
"Teacher Gojo." Toko knew who the enlightened person Sukuna was talking about was. "What exactly is going on?"
" Toko, as you can see, all the Cursed Energy in this world will disappear," Sōgo Shihoin explained calmly. "Everything will return to peace. Why aren't you happy?"
"Calm!?" Toko frowned. "What do you mean by that?"
"What I mean is," Sōgo Shihoin smiled, "I've decided to reboot this world! To create a world without Cursed Energy, where you will live ordinary yet fulfilling lives! How about that? Isn't that cool?"
"An ordinary yet fulfilling life?!" Toko still didn't understand.
"Stop talking..." But someone understood!
Megumi Fushiguro turned her head and stared intently at Sōgo Shihoin: "Are you really Soul Reaper?"
"Yes! I've never lied to you from the beginning." Sōgo Shihoin said, picking up the Soul Reaper manga that had already finished its serialization in Jump. "Just like in this manga, once upon a time, there was a Soul Society, and within the Soul Society was the Seireitei, Seireitei were the Gotei 13..."
"But you're not in it!" Megumi Fushiguro pointed at the manga. "After I brought this up, I reprinted the entire manga; you weren't in it at all."
"Yes! I'm not in it, but my friends, my sister, my brother, and my dearest best friend are." Sōgo Shihoin flipped through the manga in his hand, reading with great interest. "It's interesting, isn't it! To be honest, I'm quite curious too. It's strange why I'm not in it. Perhaps... it's because my dimension is too high to be preserved in the form of images! But I believe that since I exist in this world, there must be traces of my existence in this world."
"What will you do?" Megumi Fushiguro asked Sōgo Shihoin. "And what will happen to us?"
"You will return to your peaceful lives, just as I said at the beginning," Sōgo Shihoin smiled. "And I, led by my dearest friend, will return to Soul Society, to my own world, to continue my life. Of course, you will also continue your own lives."
"If you leave, what will happen to Teacher Gojo?" Fushiguro Megumi wondered, "Will he disappear like you?"
"No, the real Satoru Gojo will return." Sōgo Shihoin his head. "The only one who will disappear is me, this me who came from another world and inexplicably replaced Satoru Gojo."
"Really?" Megumi Fushiguro suddenly smiled. "Then I wish you a safe journey home, teacher!"
"Of course~" Sōgo Shihoin shrugged, "I will definitely make it home successfully."
"Well then, I'm leaving." Sōgo Shihoin with some emotion, "I wish you all a wonderful time in this new world."
"We will be happy and joyful." Everyone nodded in unison, "But then, we won't be able to rest easy!"
"Hey, hey, hey! I'm the teacher, okay?" Sōgo Shihoin frowned. "If you say that, I'll be very sad."
"Hahaha..." Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this.
"Well then, goodbye~ I'll come see you in the New World when I have the chance..." Sōgo Shihoin said, flying into the sky to find the giant fluttering moth floating there...
Tokyo...
"Ah! Oh no, I'm going to be late..." A boy with spiky hair ran out of a house marked "Fushiguro House" with a piece of bread in his mouth and ran quickly down the street.
"Hey! You need to eat a proper breakfast!" A burly man with some scars on his face shouted angrily from behind him, "Don't waste the food Mom prepared for everyone!"
"It's alright, Toji..." Just as the middle-aged man roared, a beautiful woman came out of the house and grabbed his arm.
"Honestly, I don't know who this impetuous kid takes after," the middle-aged man said helplessly, pulling his beautiful wife back into the room.
"That's it, and then! smack, and then boom..." On the street, a pink-haired boy was excitedly telling a comic book story to the crowd, but he hadn't walked far when he bumped into something and, without thinking, fell to the ground.
"Hey! Don't you have eyes?" A tall young man opposite him, who had also fallen to the ground, shouted angrily.
"Hmm!" The next second, the two of them saw each other's faces at the same time.
"My dearest friend! You are my dearest friend!" Instantly, the two shouted and hugged each other. "Although this is the first time I've met you, I know you are my dearest friend!"
"Huh? My little brother actually made friends? Unbelievable..." The handsome young man, who had been listening to the pink-haired boy's stories with a smile even when they were boring, looked at the two embracing each other with a puzzled expression.
"Never heard of that, bro!"
I'm not sure either.
Behind the handsome young man, a tall young man and a short, fat young man kept shaking their heads, indicating that they did not understand.
In the workshop, a boy was meticulously piecing together screws. An hour later, a 30-centimeter-tall robot was assembled in his hands. The boy excitedly held up the robot and shouted, "I'll call you Ultimate Mechamaru! You're the strongest!"
Inside the shrine, a young man dressed in a hunting robe had his eyes closed and was talking to a woman who looked slightly older and was dressed in a shrine maiden's robe.
"I'm the cutest~" the blonde girl kept introducing herself at the agency, "Idol! Nice to meet you Momo Nishimiya ~"
"Who is that person?! So disrespectful!" As the blonde girl introduced herself, a beautiful woman with short, dark green hair and a classic oval face asked with disdain.
"Sister Mai, that's a new member from the club~" the assistant, dressed in a suit and with long blue hair, said respectfully.
"Whatever~ It doesn't matter!" The Japan idol known as Mai shrugged indifferently. "Hurry up and finish the magazine shoot, I need to see my sister, she has a competition today!"
"Okay! Okay!" The assistant nodded repeatedly and began to call everyone to get to work.
"Bang!" With a gunshot, a girl as strong as a cheetah, with long, slender legs, ran out, beautiful, confident, and radiating charm!
And she won the championship! When the girl stood on the podium, with a gold medal around her neck, she smiled broadly and waved to her younger sister.
"Mr. Gojo, could you please speak a little slower? Mr. Gojo!"
"Idiot! If you don't understand, go ask your teacher, Geto, after class!"
In the classroom, a silver-haired man wearing sunglasses and pretending to be blind was lecturing with displeasure.
Rika, we'll be together forever!
"Of course, Yuta!"
In the classroom, a couple in a horrible relationship were emanating a nauseatingly sweet, pungent smell of romance!
