As Hiroshi walked, he picked up the Prison Realm that Kenjaku had dropped. From a scroll, he took his Inverted Spear of Heaven and stabbed the Prison Realm, thereby opening it.
The Inverted Spear of Heaven cancels any and all Cursed Techniques it comes into contact with, and a Special Grade Cursed Object like the Prison Realm was no different.
The moment the Prison Realm opened, his clone walked out. "Yo!"
"How'd it feel?" Hiroshi asked his clone.
"It feels like nothing. It felt like... what do you call it... like the Hyperbolic Time Chamber?" Hiroshi's clone said.
"Send me back. I think I can develop something out of the Cursed Realm while in the Prison Realm," Hiroshi's clone said.
"Really?" Hiroshi said. "Alright."
"Cursed Realm Open," Hiroshi commanded as his clone took a step forward. The Cursed Realm wrapped around him.
"Cursed Realm Close. See you in a bit," Hiroshi said as the clone gave him a thumbs up, the Cursed Realm closing and turning back into a box.
As Hiroshi stored the Prison Realm, he felt the enormous cursed energy emanating across Shibuya. "Sukuna? There aren't many sorcerers I know who have this much malevolence," Hiroshi said, beginning to walk towards the direction of the aura.
Meanwhile, Suguru Geto noticed the same energy and began flying towards it.
Megumi was launched through multiple buildings, with Sukuna closely behind. "Tiger: Totality-Merged Beast Qirin," Megumi summoned Qirin, the Shikigami now larger and fiercer than ever, having been summoned at its strongest. Qirin intercepted Sukuna. "Hehe," Sukuna laughed as he dodged and smacked the massive tiger around. "Nue: Totality-Merged Beast Chimera," Megumi summoned his strongest merged-beast. Chimera wrapped its Orochi tail around Sukuna, launching the King of Curses upwards and striking him with lightning while Qirin sprayed high-pressured water at him.
Sukuna dropped hard, kicking the ground and wrecking the building in the process. He briefly touched Chimera, turning the Shikigami into cubes.
Seeing this, Megumi realized, "He's much stronger and faster than the first time we fought." He looked around and summoned Chimera again.
Sukuna kicked Qirin, sending it crashing a few blocks away. He waved his hands, causing horizontal and vertical slashes to hit Chimera as it charged at him, all the while smirking as he glanced at Megumi atop a building.
"I must find my sensei," Megumi thought, but then realized, "No... this is my chance, a chance to prove myself!" Megumi steeled himself, locking eyes with the King of Curses. The moment Sukuna saw this, he became even more amused.
"Hehe," Sukuna chuckled as he grabbed Chimera by the tail and hurled it towards Megumi.
---
Team Kusakabe, in the nearby area, cleared the streets of transfigured humans, witnessing the widespread destruction caused by Megumi and Sukuna.
"Is that...?" Kusakabe asked.
"It's Fushiguro Megumi," Panda confirmed.
They watched Megumi exchange blows with Sukuna as they crashed into another building.
"The younger generation is getting stronger..." Kusakabe exhaled. "All the more reason to retire."
"This way, ladies and gentlemen," Kokichi guided the civilians they were escorting towards the outer part of the city, closest to the curtain's edges.
------------------
Hiroshi, walking with purpose, saw the Rainbow Dragon fly by. At the same time, Suguru noticed Hiroshi from above and decided to land. Hiroshi waved at Suguru, who descended to meet him.
"Suguru, the third Disaster Curse is sealed beneath us; you can't miss it. The fourth Disaster Curse is currently fighting the Zenin Team in the lobby. You might want to go rescue them," Hiroshi informed him.
"What about you?" Suguru asked, concern evident in his eyes.
"Sukuna," Hiroshi replied with a confident smirk before sprinting away, leaving Suguru to his task.
Suguru descended the stairs and found the only tree in the area. The moment Suguru approached the tree, it released Jogo and began to fade. There on the ground lay a severely weakened Jogo. Suguru absorbed Jogo into a black sphere and swallowed the Third Disaster Curse.
Outside, a skirmish was unfolding. Kenjaku, under the guise of Yuta Okkotsu, had managed to gather a sizable amount of curse users to initiate a rebellion, or a so-called rebellion within the power structure established by Jujutsu High. However, their sole function was to cause more chaos.
"Kill all the personnel with black suits," Uraume ordered.
However, plans can be made, but reality often diverges from them, especially when your opponents are prepared.
Team Nanami assessed the situation.
"This is the second group of curse users," Noritoshi Kamo analyzed.
"Nee-sama, you were so great!" Ui Ui praised Mei Mei.
"Yuta has managed to gather quite a few curse users," Mei Mei noted.
The assistant managers were being protected by different teams from Jujutsu High in the vicinity, while the SBI combed the buildings to evacuate non-sorcerers.
Corpses of curse users were dragged out from buildings as gunshots echoed across the streets.
----------------------
Meanwhile, Team Zenin discussed the unfolding events.
"Senju Hiroshi being sealed?" Naobito mused. "I wouldn't mind it. On the other hand, the sorcerer who planned to seal Senju Hiroshi should also seal Suguru Geto and Gojo Satoru. That way, the sorcerer world becomes an open market," Naobito suggested.
His words irked Mai. Naobito Zenin had been bad-mouthing her mentor, and she glared at him, deliberating if she should shoot her very own clan leader then and there.
Naobito noticed the fierce gaze of Mai on him. "Hit a nerve, did I? That man has changed you so much, Mai, from the woman who was content with being a servant of the clan to a sorcerer bordering on Grade 1," Naobito remarked.
"That man changed me for the better, made me see the foolish ways of our clan," Mai said sternly. "I wonder how Ogi would think seeing you like this," Naobito taunted.
"I have cut ties with my father. A man as foolish as him deserves nothing better than to die," Mai snarled, adding, "Stupid drunkard," before storming ahead of the team.
"Go home if you're just going to be an asshole," Maki retorted.
"Home? I would say that's more fitting for you, Maki," Naobito fired back.
"What can a drunkard do?" Maki challenged. "I'm the only Grade 1 sorcerer here. What would you do without me? Technically, you need to be under the supervision of a Grade 1 sorcerer like me to be promoted. If I go home, you would lose that chance, wouldn't you?" Naobito reasoned.
Nobara sighed internally, thinking, "Clans and their infighting."
As they argued, they arrived at the bottom of the lobby, where a fully formed Dagon was already waiting. Without warning, Dagon launched a torrential amount of water, washing Maki and Nobara to the farthest end of the room.
"Where's Mai?" Maki wondered as she stabbed her naginata into a pillar, grabbing Nobara to keep her steady.
"There's so much water. Luckily, this wasn't underground, or we'd be done for," Nobara thought, trying to stay composed despite the dire situation.
"Is that a Special Grade? It's much stronger than the Finger Bearer," Nobara exclaimed, her concern evident in her voice.
Naobito stood before Dagon, challenging the cursed spirit with his usual nonchalant demeanor. "Hey, cursed spirit, do you know how many frames there are in one second of animation?" he taunted.
"It's not 'cursed spirit.' I am Dagon," the spirit replied, clearly annoyed by Naobito's antics.
"There's a modern tendency to raise resolutions and frame rates..." Naobito began to babble about his cursed technique, ignoring Dagon's protests.
"There's Hanami, Jogo, and Mahito, too... we all have names!" Dagon exclaimed in frustration. "Don't you find it so unrefined?" Naobito shouted back, clearly unfazed.
As Dagon was distracted by their banter, a bullet struck him, sending him crashing into the wall with tremendous force. Hidden from sight, Mai was holding her .50 caliber sniper rifle, taking advantage of the opening.
Seizing the opportunity, Maki launched a close-range attack, while Nobara unleashed her nails towards different parts of Dagon, detonating them with a snap of her fingers.
However, despite the combined assault, Dagon remained resilient, launching at Maki, only to be intercepted by Naobito, who turned him into a frame using his technique. He then hurled the frame containing Dagon into the air, where it was hit by another bullet, damaging Dagon and releasing him.
Observing Dagon carefully, Naobito realized the spirit's seemingly endless resilience. "No damage. Or rather, it feels more like he has endless HP. I can't believe two Grade 1 sorcerers like us couldn't exorcise it together. What a wild time we live in," he mused, glancing up at Mai on the top floor.
Meanwhile, Maki thought to herself, "Shit! If the old man hadn't used his technique, I would have died there."
Dagon, unfazed by the attacks, began manipulating water around him, creating a defensive barrier. Sensing the danger, everyone in the room focused their attention on Dagon, preparing for the next round of attacks.
"You have too much cursed energy. You still have several techniques left, right? So what should I do? That's easy. I'll kill you quickly, before you can use your technique!" Naobito declared, as everyone simultaneously launched their attacks at the barrier surrounding Dagon.
Dagon was forced to launch himself into the air, only to be intercepted by Naobito above, crashing down and taking hits from all the members. Naobito began delivering combos to Dagon, striking from the left, then the right, and following up with an uppercut from below. Naobito moved so fast that he was only a blur to the rest of the team. "He's so fast, probably faster than Jogo," Dagon thought as he was then smashed onto the ground.
Attempting to use a cursed technique as cover, Dagon found Naobito blocking the attempt. However, that wasn't Dagon's intention.
Domain Expansion: Horizon of the Captivating Skandha.
Suddenly, the team found themselves on an island, with the deep blue sea surrounding them. Instantly, they were attacked by all kinds of fishes.
"Shikigami?! So this is the domain's guaranteed-hit attack? I didn't notice them until they struck. No, they didn't even exist until they hit," Maki thought as she was hit and began to bleed.
Mai crouched instinctively and launched her Simple Domain to counteract Dagon's, protecting herself.
"Thankfully, I was paying attention to Sensei when he taught us Simple Domains," Mai thought. "Kugisaki! Maki! Come over here fast!" she shouted, prompting the two to run towards her while being hit.
Meanwhile, Naobito used the Falling Blossom Emotion to protect himself.
Dagon noticed that his opponents managed to protect themselves from his Domain and thought, "That's enough. I will focus 70% of the power on that group and 30% on that mustache," indicating his intention to concentrate most of his firepower on Mai's Simple Domain.
"Technique Release!" Dagon casted, instantly causing Mai's Simple Domain to shrink, indicating that although she was protecting herself by expanding her domain, it also meant that Dagon could overpower that small space with his increased cursed energy output. Meanwhile, Naobito was swarmed by a multitude of fishes.
"This isn't good. The force of the Shikigami is never-ending," Naobito thought as he was suddenly sent flying. "The Shikigami were blocking my view!" were his thoughts as he crashed into the trees.
"Maki-senpai, what should we do?" Nobara asked Maki, gripping her hammer and nails tightly.
Mai's Simple Domain had shrunk to the point where just a bit more movement and either Maki or Nobara would get hit by the sure-hit effect.
"Mai, are you okay?" Maki asked. Mai, on the other hand, was sweating bullets, struggling to prevent her Simple Domain from breaking. "Does it look like I'm okay, Maki?" she struggled to say.
However, just as things became bleak,
Domain Expansion: Night Parade of 100 Demons.
Another domain opened on the opposite side of the ocean, with a blood-red moon, filled with fog and the cackling of cursed spirits. And from the fog emerged Suguru Geto.
Suguru smirked, "Glad I was on time," as he released three Cursed Spirits that broke Dagon's spirit.
"Jogo, Mahito, Hanami..." Memories came rushing back. "What... have you done to them!" Dagon shouted.
However, the only answer he received was a volcanic eruption from all around him as Jogo attacked.
Dagon tried to defend himself, but another attack came in the form of sharp wooden appendages, resulting in him being impaled on his right arm.
"Akh!" Hanami held Dagon by the side. "Ember Insects!" Jogo fired, as a multitude of insects hit and exploded on Dagon.
"Why?" was the only thought Dagon had as he was attacked by his former partners.
At this point, Suguru Geto's domain had destroyed Dagon's within the first few seconds, and now Dagon was forced to receive the sure-hit effects of Suguru Geto's domain. It didn't take long for the Last Disaster Curse to be absorbed into a black sphere and taken in by Suguru Geto.
"Are you okay?" Suguru asked Mai and the others.
"Good timing, Geto-Sensei," Nobara said.
"Old man, are you okay?" Suguru asked nonchalantly, looking at the now missing-armed Naobito.
"I am fine, just missing an arm worth 71 years of history," Naobito said.
As they conversed, Shibuya was shaken in the distance by Sukuna brawling with Qirin, Chimera, and Mahoraga, with the addition of Megumi firing away with Cero. "Go and exit the barrier; we will deal with the King of Curses," Suguru said as he summoned the Rainbow Dragon and flew towards the location.
Suguru landed near the area where the King of Curses had fought and found Hiroshi watching the spectacle. "What's the situation?" Suguru asked.
"Megumi is going to lose soon," Hiroshi said.
"Why? He has summoned Mahoraga, and he is currently winning," Suguru asked as he saw Mahoraga throw Sukuna through multiple buildings, with Chimera smiting the King of Curses with lightning and being hit by high-pressurized water from Qirin.
"You don't understand. Look at Sukuna's face. Does that look like the face of a man who is losing?" Hiroshi said as Suguru carefully watched Sukuna's smiling face. Clearly, the man was enjoying himself.
"I'll save him when the time comes. I believe he is heavily injured, but one thing I wonder is, did I seal Sukuna? Did Kenjaku perhaps destroy the seal on Yuji?" Hiroshi wondered.
"Perhaps. This is Kenjaku we're talking about," Suguru said as he sat down.
"When I throw Megumi your way heal him" Hiroshi said.
"Pfft," Suguru mocked. "Tell me you want to fight without telling me you want to fight," he said. "Hehe, I want to try something, and only the King of Curses can inspire me to do so. I'm missing something, and I believe that Ryomen Sukuna can show me the way," Hiroshi smirked.
"You're going to copy him? Does that make you inferior?" Suguru asked.
"No, there is only winning and losing. It does not matter if I win with whatever means. But that does not mean I will not copy and emulate my opponents to become better than them, especially if they know some things better than you. As the saying goes, 'the winner writes history,'" Hiroshi said.
"Damn right," Suguru replied.
A/N: Is the pacing too fast or too slow?
A/N: On the Side note there was that Rumor or Theory Floating around that Sukuna will eat someone if so who? like everyone is basically dead.
