Chapter 72, Section 4 [Revised] Being Little Sun's daughter is so wonderful...

"So, Megumi, you called me here today because of Hoshino." Only now did Yuuji Itadori finally understand what that puzzling phone call was all about.

Fuhei Hui nodded slightly.

"But what did you mean by that, teacher?" Itadori Yuuji scratched his head, somewhat puzzled.

"The guy with stitches on his head... If I remember correctly, isn't this the curse master that you teachers and Senior Yigu were looking for? Why are you suddenly mentioning him? And... and saying things like that?"

The idea of ​​protecting yourself always sounds a bit strange.

"Oh... well, you'll have to ask Hoshirin-chan then." Gojo Satoru pointed to Oriyuki Karin.

He himself was also curious about what exactly happened.

Yuujin Itadori followed Satoru Gojo's finger and looked at Karin Oriyuki.

Upon noticing the gaze, Ayaka quickly shook her head: "No, this guy is wrong, Rōsō isn't my mom."

Clearly, the person she rudely referred to as "this guy" was Gojo Satoru.

Hisahito Itadori's eyes widened almost immediately upon hearing her call him that, wondering if he, as a father in a parallel world, should correct his daughter's choice of words.

Before he could even speak, Karin Oori waved her hand, "But never mind, it's normal for him to make a mistake with his dim-witted brain. It's alright! I won't mind, and I forgive you on behalf of Mom!"

He appeared to be very magnanimous and friendly.

Hisuhito Kizumi and Megumi Fushiguro: "..."

Something just feels off...

Gojo Satoru, who hadn't been respected, wasn't angry at all. Instead, he found it amusing and chuckled, rubbing his forehead: "Oh, thank you so much, Hoshirin-chan, for your generosity!"

Karin Oori nodded matter-of-factly: "It's okay~ Dad said we should be more tolerant and friendly towards people!"

Gojo Satoru then became her professional straight man: "Eh~ I see~ That's true~"

"Right? That makes sense, doesn't it?"

"Hmm, that makes a lot of sense~"

Father Hisahito Itadori scratched his face, starting to doubt himself: "Tolerance and friendliness... is that how you use it?"

Fukuro Megumi remained silent.

He had already realized that the daughter that Itadora had raised in the parallel world had definitely gone astray...

"So, since Ryousaku isn't your mother, how did you get the spell on Hoshirin-chan?" The curious Gojo Satoru finally steered the conversation back to the main point.

However, Hisahito Itadori, who had missed the previous recap, was still off-topic: "What technique?"

"It's a technique that can possess another person's body. The only known holder of this technique is Toso, and then—" Gojo Satoru pointed at Oriyuki Karin, "...it can't be that guy is some kind of ancestor of your Itadori family, can it?"

“It’s not related to our ancestors,” Karin Origami immediately shook her head, “As for Tōsō… she’s probably… my grandmother?”

Gojo Satoru, Fushiguro Megumi, Kozune Hisuhito:?

Gojo Satoru and Fushiguro Megumi both turned to look at Itadori Yuujin, their eyes conveying a clear message: Your mother? Rōsō!?

Yuuji Itadori was also completely bewildered: "Hoshirin's grandmother, which means...my mother!?"

Gojo Satoru patted Itadori Yuuji on the shoulder, as if patting a descendant of a hero, and said with emotion, "Yuuji, I never thought it would be your dad, not you, who broke that guy's head."

He held one hand empty, mimicking the gesture of holding a microphone, and placed it in front of Hisahito Itadori, asking, "May I ask what the name of this legendary hero is?"

Hisuhito Polygonum cuspidatum: "..."

"No... um... Star Bell? You mean... really?" Yuuji Itadori felt that this was a lot of information.

Karin Origami tilted her head innocently: "So, Dad, you didn't know? Uncle Hui said before that there were other children who had traveled through time like me. I thought you already knew a lot."

Fushiguro Megumi, who had been silent all along, finally spoke up: "No, actually, because everyone is not very old, they don't know much about the past."

It's rather strange that someone like Hodana Seirin, who seems to know so much, is like this.

Gojo Satoru, chin in hand, asked with a grin, "Oh right, so how does Hoshirin-chan know so much about the past?"

"Could it be some old monster disguised as a child? Let me dissect it and see~" He twisted his ten fingers, striking a pose as if he were a strange uncle about to lay a hand on Oriyuki Karin.

Zhixue Yahuali: "..."

She was stunned for a moment, then looked as if she had just realized something, and pointed at Gojo Satoru, saying with great joy, "Now I finally know why you were locked up in the prison gates!"

Gojo Satoru: "..."

Although the child didn't use any insulting words, Gojo Satoru felt like he had been insulted.

He turned to look at Fushiguro Megumi: "Megumi, did I not act well just now?"

Fushiguro Megumi: "..."

"If you're playing a fool, you'd be quite convincing."

Gojo Satoru turned around confidently: "As expected, my acting skills are still top-notch! It's a real loss to the film industry that I didn't enter the entertainment industry to act!"

Yuuji Itadori scratched his face with his beady eyes: "Why do I feel like what Megumi just said wasn't a compliment..."

Fushiguro Megumi: "...Ignore this guy."

The two then turned their attention back to Karin Origami.

Karin Origami scratched the back of her head with a silly grin and said, "Why do I know so much? Well... because people have been telling me these old stories all along."

She started counting on her fingers: "The bad guy who caused these injuries to Dad and his friends is Xingling's grandmother. Xingling has the same magic as him and flows with the same blood."

"Also, although he is the holder of the Crimson Blood Manipulation Technique, the Nine Phase Diagram should be something that the Kamo family despises the most. Now, the guy who inherited their bloodline has actually become the young master of the Kamo family."

"And... to actually possess the same technique as Sukuna, perhaps it's some kind of ominous sign, maybe one day it will become a curse like Sukuna."

Listening to the child's innocent voice repeating these obviously unkind words, and the child still appearing so naive as if unaware of anything wrong with them, Yuujin Itadori and Megumi Fushiguro both fell silent.

Gojo Satoru noticed the key words and became interested: "What does 'young master of the Kamo family' mean? This is interesting, can you elaborate?"

Fushiguro Megumi shoved the person back down: "We'll talk about that later!"

Yuujin Itadori scratched his face, and asked with some concern, "Um... Hoshirin, don't you feel sad hearing these words?"

"Huh?" The child tilted his head at him, seemingly not quite understanding. "Why are you sad?"

Yuujin Itadori thought for a moment, then grinned: "That's right! There's absolutely no need to be sad! Those guys are probably just jealous that you, Hoshirin, have so many techniques, that's why they said those things. It just proves that our Hoshirin is very talented!"

Karin Origami beamed with joy: "Yes! That's what Daddy said! Hoshirin is amazing!"

Yuujin Itadori gave a thumbs up: "Yeah! Super amazing! Senior Otsuko and Senior Natsuyu are also different from everyone else, they've mastered a lot of techniques, they're both very strong!"

Karin Oriyuki raised both hands: "Hoshirin is innate!"

Yuji Itadori immediately clapped his hands: "Wow—that's even more amazing!"

Karin Origami was grinning from ear to ear.

Wow... being a cub like Tiger must be such a wonderful experience! It's incredibly emotionally rewarding!

Tokyo Tower looks much better today!

Seeing how happy she was, Hisahito Itadori asked, "Want to play piggyback ride?"

Karin Origami hesitated for only a second, then immediately nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

Then the two pink-haired girls started playing happily over there.

Seeing this, Gojo Satoru joined in: "I want to too! Hey!"

With Gojo Satoru joining them, the two of them lifted Oriyuki Karin high and then put her down, then lifted her high again.

"Suddenly, the entire living room was filled with cheerful laughter, and the atmosphere became like a kindergarten spring outing."

Fushiguro Megumi: "..."

Does anyone remember the serious business we were just discussing?

——

After the patriarch, Fuhei, who was in charge of taking care of the children, finally brought all the prepared food to the table, the three children, who had finished playing, returned to the table to continue their previous conversation.

While enjoying a bowl full of food that Hisahito Itadori had thoughtfully placed on her plate, the short-armed Karin Oori told the three of them the story of the legendary heroine mother of the legendary Tosaku.

Midway through, Gojo Satoru found the story so captivating that he paused it briefly. He took out his phone and started a voice chat with Ieiri Shoko and Natsuyu Suguru, inviting them to listen to this great story together.

To be fair, his attitude of sharing the gossip was quite admirable to Oriya Karin, so she cooperated and repeated the story from the beginning.

As it turns out, Natsumi Yuki and Ieiri Shoko truly lived up to their reputation as classmates of Gojo Satoru.

At first, the two were complaining to Gojo Satoru that they were too busy to listen to his interesting stories of the day—which gives you an idea of ​​how Gojo Satoru usually bothers them every day. But after listening to Oriyuki Karin's opening remarks, the two silently put down what they were doing.

Xia Youjie and Jia Rushao: Hmm... it seems like this melon sounds more important.

"So... Yuujin's father is the reincarnation of Sukuna's twins, and after Tosaku found him, he managed to marry him, and also... cough, and then Yuujin was born?" Gojo Satoru exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, big news."

Honestly, this news is really explosive. If it weren't for the fact that there was a little girl like Karin Ooyuki in the audience, Satoru Gojo would have loved to start a discussion right there and then about how Tosaku slept with Hisahito Itadori's dad.

To be honest, Natsumi Yuki and Ieiri Shoko share the same idea. These three will likely discuss this matter in the group for quite some time after they make their predictions.

Okiya Karin scratched the back of her head.

Gojo Satoru didn't say those words. She only said that Tiger's father was the reincarnation of Sukuna's twins, and then Tiger's mother was possessed by Tōsō.

But she didn't feel comfortable correcting them, since as a granddaughter, she already knew enough about the situation. In the original story, the main characters didn't know these things even until the end; she was essentially giving them a God's-eye view.

Emmm... never mind, he's lost face and substance both ways. He's even willing to have a child for the sake of the plan, so he doesn't seem like someone who needs face that much.

Zhi Xueya Karin decides to sacrifice her integrity.

However, Hisahito Itadori was completely bewildered by this sudden news: "So... not only is my mother a Tōsō... but my father is also the reincarnation of the Sukuna twins???"

Gojo Satoru patted him on the shoulder: "Great, with this background, you're either a chosen villain or a chosen protagonist!"

He even gave Hisahito Itadori a thumbs up.

Hisuhito Polygonum cuspidatum: "..."

"Uh... teacher, isn't that how it's calculated?"

However, Gojo Satoru didn't listen to what he was saying at all. He put his arm around Satoru's shoulder and continued, "And look, Naruto also has a Nine-Tails sealed inside him. He also has a teacher with an eyepatch and white hair, a genius brother with black hair from a powerful clan, and a female classmate whose name has a flower in it."

Fushiguro Megumi, a genius boy with black hair from a prominent family: "..."

Yuuji Itadori was taken aback by Satoru Gojo's words: "Now that you mention it... it does seem quite similar! But Sensei, isn't this all just a coincidence?"

Gojo Satoru shook his head: "No, Yuujin, you don't understand. This is a coincidence beyond coincidence; it's fate! Don't you think?"

Zhixue Yahuali: "..."

She couldn't help but think to herself: Maybe IIVV has gone too far in borrowing from others...

But seeing that Gojo Satoru was still in the mood to act silly, Oriyuki Karin couldn't help but want to say something sarcastic to him.

“It really sounds like it…” she first said, pretending to be a straight man, echoing Gojo Satoru’s comment.

Gojo Satoru, who was still fooling the students, didn't realize anything was wrong at first. He even turned around and tried to tease her along, saying, "Right? Hoshirin-chan, don't you think it looks a lot like that too?"

Karin Oriyuki nodded in full agreement: "Yes! It's very similar!"

Then, she asked with a curious look, "So... this guy named Naruto, was his teacher also cut in two by the villain?"

Gojo Satoru: "..."

Hisuhito Polygonum cuspidatum: "..."

Fuhei Hui turned her head away and covered her mouth to chuckle.
