________________________________________________________________________________
Gathered at the entrance to the forest, the Tokyo group awaited the start of the tournament.
With all the strategy in place, each of them already knew what had to be done.
And while there were still a few minutes to go, they decided to talk to each other.
"Yuji"
But while Itadori was talking to Megumi and Nobara, he turned around when he heard his name and saw Maki standing in front of him.
"I forgot to ask you when we were working out the plan." Raising her hand, Maki spread her fingers in a sign of wanting something. "Give me back my Tozama."
Itadori, listening to the girl's request, took a while to understand what she wanted, but soon his mind went back to the events at the boarding school, when the knife he was using broke trying to cut the special-grade curse.
"Uh..."
And he quickly remembered that it must have belonged to Maki.
"It broke."
But at this point, there was no point in lying, so Itadori was quite direct in his words.
"..." But from Maki's inexpressive face, perhaps being so direct wasn't the best option. "Broken?"
Megumi and Nobara were quick to move away, which caused Itadori to look at them in disbelief.
While the situation looked like it was going to get a little intense, Itadori felt relieved when the megaphone sounded.
"Only one minute until the event starts! Stay with the voice of the lovely Utahime-Sensei as she encourages you!"
"U-Uh? It's... It's inevitable that some people will get hurt, so... Uh... Help yourselves an-"
"Time's up."
"What? Hey, Gojo!"
"And now the tournament...
Begins!!!"
!
With the start of the event declared, the group moved quickly, advancing into the forest together.
"Wait for the signal to split up into groups! We're counting on you, Yuji!" Maki spoke, Itadori nodding.
"Woof!"
Megumi's black wolf followed in front of the group, stopping when a curse that resembled a spider descended in front of them through a web on a branch.
"A weak curse." Panda noticed, and Maki quickly drew his spear.
"Senpai! Wait!"
But before she could advance, Megumi called out to her as her wolf barked in distress.
Boom!
And suddenly appearing as some trees were destroyed, Todo showed himself to them with a huge smile.
"Great! Everyone's here!
Come on! Come and face me all at once!"
!
"Uh?"
But before he could go any further, his eyes widened as a shoe came up in front of his face, hitting him in a way that threw his head back and made him stagger.
"Break it up!"
All bewildered, the group quickly split up, leaving only Itadori to face the first-degree sorcerer.
"That was a great hit!"
Shaking his head, Todo blew his nose to expel the accumulated blood, a smile widening on his lips.
'I did good damage.' Itadori noticed, and getting into position, he prepared for a counterattack. 'As long as I don't get hit in any vital spots, I can hold him off for as long as it takes.'
"Now I'm going to strike back, first-timer!"
Itadori raised his defense as the sorcerer raised his fist, immediately preparing to receive the attack.
"Receive that!"
Boom!
The spider curse, appearing in front of the fist at the last moment, exploded into pieces, Itadori's defense receiving the full brunt of the punch.
'What strength!'
His body pushed back, Itadori kept his feet firmly on the ground, a smile on his lips as he swung his arms to shake off the numbness caused by the impact.
'It's even stronger than the attacks of that special-grade curse.'
"You really resisted my punch? Wonderful! What's your name?" Todo was amazed that the first-year in front of him had been able to withstand one of his punches so easily. He could tell immediately that the boy was definitely someone who could amuse him.
"Itadori Yuji."
"Right! So, Itadori Yuji! I have a question for you!"
Todo, with all his strange mannerism, prepared to ask the question that would seal his opponent's fate.
"What's your ideal type of woman?"
"..."
'Ah, yes. I'd forgotten that he asks that kind of question.'
Itadori, suddenly receiving that question, stopped to think of an answer.
'Actually, I don't think I ever stopped to think about it.'
In his old life, Mark had met an incredible woman, who had been with him from high school through to adulthood.
His wife was an incredible woman in many ways.
Beautiful, but above all, mentally strong. Perhaps this was the trait that had attracted him to her the most.
Even in the worst moments of his life, there she was, firmly supporting him, as if she had unshakeable confidence in him.
'Shit, I'm getting a bit emotional. Focus!'
But in the end, he knew that this would not be an answer to everyone's liking. He needed to simplify as robustly as possible.
He needed to detail his wife's body in the crudest way possible.
"My kind of woman?" Itadori, staring at Todo intensely, simply stated. "A woman with an athletic body and big thighs, uh... Like Gina Carano."
"..."
Todo, hearing that answer full of sincerity, froze for a moment. Memories that had never happened had just invaded his mind.
Filled for a time with Itadori that had never happened.
"It seems that the two of us are...
Best friends!"
'Strange.' Itadori thought as he watched the tears run down the sorcerer's face.
But unable to think too much about the situation, Itadori went on alert when he felt the cursed energy of other sorcerers surge towards him, his eyes narrowing as he turned to the trees to see the Kyoto students in the branches.
'So they're still planning to kill me, are they?'
Running as numerous shots threatened to hit him, Itadori quickly noticed Miwa in front of him about to draw her sword.
"New Shadow Style: Simple-"
But before the girl could complete her attack, Itadori surprised her by appearing in front of her in an instant, grabbing her wrist and throwing her away, completely undoing her technique.
'He just... Ignored me?' Standing on the ground, the girl watched Itadori walk away with an impassive face.
!
But as Itadori continued to walk away, he turned his head when he noticed Mechamaru jump up beside him, his eyes narrowing as the puppet raised its palm to form what looked like some kind of energy beam.
"Uh?"
But before he could complete the attack, Yuji's palm hit him squarely in the stomach, his body flying between the trees.
*Palm!
Kamo, about to shoot with his bow, was surprised when he found himself on the ground, his head turning to see Itadori on the branch where he had been seconds before.
"Hey, I told you, didn't I?"
Kamo, jumping up to dodge a punch from Todo, turned to the first-degree sorcerer.
"That I'd kill anyone who got in my way."
"No, You didn't."
"Whatever! Get out of here."
Kamo, seeing that Todo had no intention of turning back, just gave up. In the end, he knew he didn't stand a chance.
"You have to kill him."
But before he retreated, he didn't forget to say.
"That will depend entirely on him." With a smile, Todo stood in front of Itadori again. "Let's keep going, my friend!"

!
Blocking a punch, Itadori quickly grabbed Todo's wrist and brought him down in a takedown, but before he could continue, a sharp kick pushed his head up.
Itadori staggered, but recovered his posture in time to pull back his torso to dodge a punch, immediately countering with an elbow that hit Todo's jaw squarely.
'He's extraordinarily cunning!' Todo spat out a little blood as he thought.
And raising his defense as Itadori charged towards him, he was surprised when instead of a punch, a kick with both legs hit his arms, his defense opening up and causing his face to be hit precisely.
'And that damage!'
But before he could recover, Itadori was around him in an instant and grabbed his waist, dropping him in a suplex.
'Compares to mine!'
Boom!
Receiving a kick while still on the ground, Todo flew away until he hit a tree.
'What's more, his flow of cursed energy is very precise! It's almost unbelievable that he's only a novice.' Getting up, Todo wiped the dirt off his body. "But still..."
Narrowing his eyes as Itadori charged in, Todo readied himself and skillfully blocked a punch aimed at his ribcage.
'Something's missing!'
Itadori's eyes widened as Todo drove his body into the ground purely with the strength of his arm, his teeth clenching as his back hit the ground.
"My friend, you haven't seen it yet, have you?"
Pushing the sorcerer away with both feet, Itadori stood up in confusion. "What? What are you talking about?"
"You haven't witnessed the Black Flash yet, have you?"
Itadori blinked at the man's words, remembering that this technique existed.
Black Flash, basically the technique that made Itadori a danger to most of his opponents. How could he forget it...?
No, it was normal for him to forget. He had been too busy training with Gojo to take the time to think about it.
As far as he could remember, the Black Flash occurred when a distortion of space occurred due to cursed energy being applied within a few milliseconds, or even less. This greatly increased the power of the attack, but it depended mainly on luck, since no sorcerer was able to use the technique at will.
An enormous amount of concentration was also required, but luck was a predominant factor in getting this technique right.
It wasn't something that could simply be learned.
"And what's it got to do with you?" But wanting to hear what Todo had to say about it, he asked.
"You already have wonderful control of your cursed energy, my friend! I can't teach you what you already know, but I can guide you so that you can finally witness the Black Flash!
Believe me! Your growth will skyrocket after that."
Itadori raised an eyebrow at that. Aoi Todo had believed too much in false memories.
This was also something Itadori needed to study later, after all, it was a strange phenomenon that he didn't remember there being any explanation for.
"And how do I do it?"
"..."
"It's not something that can be taught so simply, my friend. It's more like...
Being chosen."
Itadori nodded, already knowing this information.
"But I'm sure you'll be chosen, my friend! Concentrate! Enter a state of total concentration, and release everything you have at once. Do that, and you will succeed."
Todo raised his defense, the cursed energy exploding from his body for a moment, before returning to him.
"Come on! Try me!"
Itadori was surprised by the request. Try now? In the middle of their fight?
That could be dangerous...
"All right."
But in the end, there would be no better time for it, besides, it would help him during the fight against Hanami.
So, closing his eyes, Itadori raised his fist in front of his face.
He needed to concentrate in a way he had never concentrated before.
At that point, it was a little difficult to do so, after all, he had a lot on his mind. A huge weight on his shoulders, and even the memories of a past life that he would be unable to live again.
It was simply difficult to concentrate in the face of all this.
But...
Throughout his life, he had moments when he could abandon everything, so that he could feel free of everything, at least for a few moments.
When he was next to his wife, just enjoying the scenery.
When he was in space, observing the vast universe with its infinite stars.
When he was just spending time with his grandfather...
At times like these, he felt hypnotized. As if nothing else mattered.
A state of focus and complete peace that could be achieved in just a few moments.
And with all these moments being recalled in his mind, he prepared himself.
His eyes opened, and free of any restraints that had previously been on his body, he let his body deal with everything on its own.
And with a single lunge, he covered the distance between them, his fist rising as the glint of awareness in his gaze disappeared for a single millisecond.
Time enough for him to unleash an attack with total concentration.
'You did it, my brother!
Boom!
"Black Flash!"
Electricity rang out as black lightning exploded all over the place. Todo, receiving the punch full on, clenched his teeth as he flew backwards, his body crashing into the trees without stopping.
Itadori, frozen as he felt the cursed energy overflowing from his body, looked at his hands in fascination.
'How incredible... It's as if controlling my cursed energy is as easy as breathing! É...
Magnificent!'
"Ugh..."
Hearing a groan coming from the trees, Itadori turned to see Todo returning with the skin on his forearms reddened from the damage.
"You reduced the damage at the last moment, didn't you, my friend?"
Itadori nodded, after all, he could tell that if he used his full strength, he would surely break several of Todo's bones.
"You really..." Todo, feeling tears threaten to run down his face, ran towards Itadori. "You really are my best friend!"
"Uh? Wait! We were fighting, have you forgotten? Hey! No hugging!"
