Chapter 63, Chapter 12: The alarm sounded again at the vocational college.
"Itadori... Hisahito? Okay, I understand. I'll have Mei-san investigate."
As soon as Xia Youjie hung up the phone, Wutiao Wu smoothly leaned over and said, "What? I think I heard something about Sukuna."
"It was Haibara who called. She said she heard about this boy from Kūka Risa. His name is Itadori Yuujin, and he's your student, in the same year as Megumi. Apparently, he was once fleshed by Sukuna, so he retains Sukuna's magic formula in his body."
Gojo Satoru:?
"Just how many people has Su Nuo actually slept with?"
Xia Youjie shrugged: "Who knows? So, you're going to handle this? Since you're my student."
“Okay, Itadori… Yuujin, right? I feel like I’ve heard that name somewhere before.” Gojo Satoru stroked his chin thoughtfully.
"Hmm..." He gave up, "I can't remember."
Xia Youjie laughed: "Maybe they mentioned it before, either as Ayaka or Hiri."
"Well, whatever, at least we found the person." Gojo Satoru decided not to bother searching through his memories.
"Oh, right, there's another girl named Kugizaki Nobara. She's supposedly your student too, in the same year as Megumi. If you want to finish recruiting sooner, you can look for her while you're at it."
"Wild Rose, I like this name. I feel like she'd be a student who's right up my alley. Does it have a specific origin story?"
Xia Youjie gave a friendly smile: "No, so you'll have to go find it yourself."
The five cats sighed in frustration: "Ugh~"
"There's nothing we can do about it. It's already quite good that Kuka can remember complete names. You can't expect her to remember where a bunch of uncles and aunts were when they were young."
Gojo Satoru tried to cheat: "Please ask the children who come next time to bring a complete notebook."
Xia Youjie picked up his pen to write the mission report and casually replied, "Then please be more devout; perhaps your application will be received by the gods."
"But speaking of which, Jay, don't you think it's a bit strange?" Gojo Satoru idly played with his bandages. "The world is so big, how come every time someone travels through time it's someone else's child? Aren't there any older people involved?"
Xia Youjie casually replied, "Who knows? Maybe I'm too old to time travel."
To everyone's surprise, Gojo Satoru nodded in agreement: "That's true, after all, it's always high school students who save the world in manga."
Xia Youjie: "..."
Never mind, as long as you're happy.
"I find it strange that it's always people from the vocational high school who travel through time. I've never heard of anything like this happening anywhere else. Even with Mingli-chan last time, Hui was actually from the vocational high school."
Speaking of Gojo Satoru, he said with a hint of resentment, "Yeah! It's always this high school, why isn't there a single cutie with the surname Gojo?"
Xia Youjie glanced at him and said dismissively, "It's usually teenagers who do this. You're way too old for that. Don't even think about it."
"No, why? You're supposed to become a magician at thirty, okay? Why can't you have a chance at 27?"
"These two things are completely unrelated, okay? And even if you're 30, you don't have many years left. Think about it, you might just be someone who hasn't found a wife or children, so you'll end up alone."
Gojo Satoru: "..."
"Jay, is that how you comfort someone?"
Xia Youjie laughed: "No, I'm rubbing salt into the wound."
Comforting Wu Tiao Wu? What a joke.
Gojo Satoru, unwilling to admit defeat, pointed at Xia Youjie's nose and started stabbing him in the back: "You're not much better. Logically speaking, Xiaolihua should have been born by now at your age. The fact that she's still not here means you've already missed your true love!"
"That's still better than some people who can't even find a child in a parallel universe, isn't it?"
The two faced off.
It's confirmed; they both look at each other with the intention of punching the other.
So on this day, another "civil war" broke out at the college.
This was the first time that Yuta Ekiku had witnessed Gojo Satoru and Natsume fighting. At first, he had no idea what was going on and ran out in a panic to ask Panda and Inugami.
The panda remained calm: "Ah, it's probably just that Wu and Teacher Xiayou are fighting again. Don't worry about it."
Yi Gu You Tai: ?
"Gojo-sensei and Natsuyu-sensei?" Yuta Otsuko didn't understand. "Why would the two teachers fight?"
Hearing the commotion coming from the other side, Yuta Ekiku felt that something was very wrong, extremely wrong.
In his view, what kind of huge conflict must have led to this?
Panda, however, was already used to it: "I don't know. Maybe Teacher Xiayou forgot to bring back some snacks for Wu when he went out, or maybe Wu crushed the cursed spirit that Teacher Xiayou wanted again, or maybe they just started arguing while they were chatting."
Yi Gu You Tai: "..."
No, just because of such a trivial matter?
The panda patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, you'll get used to it. It happens once or twice every now and then."
"Is that so..." Yi Gu You Tai felt speechless with frustration.
Is this something that can really be gotten used to so easily?
On the other side, shortly after the loud noise, there was a knock on the door of Karin Ooyuki's dormitory.
When Karin Okiyuki came over and opened the door, she was greeted by Maki Zenin and the Kasaba sisters.
Karin Oori asked in confusion, "Aunt Maki, Aunt Mimiko, Aunt Nanako, is something the matter?"
"It's nothing," Nanako Kasaba pointed in the direction from which the loud noise came and said, "It was just that the noise over there was a bit loud, and I was worried it might scare you, so I came to check it out."
However, it seems that the child is not frightened at all.
Not to mention being frightened, even Ayaka Shiki was a little puzzled: why was she frightened?
Isn't this just Gojo Satoru and Natsuyu Jie's daily house-destroying antics? The fact that the high school alarm didn't go off means that Natsuyu Jie hasn't gotten carried away yet.
Normally, it's only when the alarm goes off that it means Xia Youjie has become so obsessed that he doesn't care whether the released cursed spirits will trigger the alarm.
In such situations, you should generally stand a little further away.
—The above is a summary from the highly experienced Oriyuki Karin.
The child's seemingly accustomed, even somewhat puzzled, expression left the three people outside the door somewhat silent.
Zenin Maki asked bluntly, "Just wondering, is Satoru like this on your side too?"
It is known that Natsume Yuuki had already passed away in the world of Kuka Riku, so the only one who could make a child so accustomed to such things is Gojo Satoru.
After thinking about it, Karin thought that given Gojo Satoru's personality, it was perfectly reasonable for him to dismantle the high school at his age, right?
So she nodded: "Mm."
The three people outside the door: "..."
Mimiko Kasaba was speechless: "He's already old enough to be a grandfather, why is he still like this?"
Zenin Maki scoffed, "It's normal for that bastard to do anything."
Nanako Kasaba looked up: "At your age, you still look like this...?"
The three of them imagined together what it would be like for Gojo Satoru, who was quite old, to still be acting silly.
The three of them: "..."
The scene is so beautiful.
In the midst of the fight, Gojo Satoru suddenly sneezed: "Achoo!"
He turned his head and looked around: "Who's thinking about me?"
His response was a kick from Xia Youjie, which sent Wutiao Wu flying into the main road of the vocational school, smashing through the paving stones along the way.
"You're spacing out during a fight? Have you finally lost your mind?" he mocked mercilessly.
Gojo Satoru steadied himself on the ground. With no bottom line, even if he personally plowed and loosened the soil for the high school, he would be completely unharmed.
Even after being kicked, he didn't back down, immediately responding with a sarcastic remark: "Well, after all, in a fight of this caliber, even if you lose focus for a moment, it won't have any impact at all."
This statement is undeniably provocative.
Xia Youjie's smile became even more amiable: "Oh? Is that so?"
The next second, the college's alarm sounded.
In the dorm, Shizuka Kaori looked up at the sky and said: "Here it comes, they're getting worked up, the intensity is rising."
I wonder how many places the college will need to renovate this time.
A short while later, the roar of the Night Moth came from afar.
Ayaka Shiki remarked: "Ms. Night Moth's voice is still so healthy after all these years..."
——
Just as Gojo Satoru and Natsuyu Suguru were deepening their emotional connection...
The suburbs, a small grove of trees. In short, it was a secluded place, obviously perfect for doing bad things.
The people gathered here now are indeed a group of guys preparing to do bad things, and they are communicating with each other.
The contact members are: Lu Suo, Li Mei, Lou Hu, and Hua Yu.
The leader of this meeting, Lu Suo, first stated his demands: "Yota Ekiku, if we can obtain his body, or his complete corpse, my strength will be greatly enhanced. At that time, our plan will go much more smoothly."
"And that little girl next to him, a child who traveled from the future, this isn't the first time. Although we don't know the reason, if we could capture her and study her, we might get some surprises."
Lou Hu scoffed, "You're just a weakling. Even if your strength improves, how much stronger can you be?"
Yes, a complete noob.
Over the years, thanks to Gojo Satoru and Natsuyuge's search for Tōsō, although Tōsō managed to hide and avoid being caught, he was indeed subject to considerable restrictions. The body he was currently using originally belonged to only a level one sorcerer, and his spells were not particularly talented.
Although Rōsō raised his strength to the Special Grade level after taking over this body, he was still far behind Gojō Sō and Natsuyuki.
In fact, he might not even be able to beat Louhu now.
There's no way around it; the world of sorcery is a place that values talent. No matter how much you've accumulated over thousands of years, if you're stuck with a less-than-ideal talent, you can't possibly surpass those prodigies.
His best option was actually Xia Youjie, as he was very interested in the opponent's technique. However, he didn't have a way to deal with Xia Youjie, so he had to think of other methods first.
Then he set his sights on Fushiguro Megumi, but that kid was not to be trifled with either.
Putting aside the fact that he has a father like Fushiguro Jinji, Fushiguro Megumi's ruthlessness in wanting to unleash a killing move to take his enemies down with him when he was on the verge of death directly reduced the feasibility of this matter to zero.
If they could beat that, why are they holding back and hesitating here?
Originally, Lu Suo was considering whether to go into seclusion for a few years, but unexpectedly, Yi Gu You Tai reappeared.
In comparison, it's clear that Yuta Eki is an easier target. Although he has a top-tier cursed spirit by his side, he's a weakling. As long as we work together to take down that cursed spirit, it won't be a problem.
But Lu Suo definitely can't handle this alone, which is why we have this meeting today.
Faced with Louhu's ridicule and doubt, Lu Suo was not annoyed. He simply said, "If we can get Yigu Youtai's body, we can join forces to deal with Fuheishen and get the Su Nuo finger inside him."
Louhu pressed further, "What about Gojo Satoru and Natsume Yuki?"
“That’s beyond our ability to solve; it requires Su Nuo.”
"Pfft, are those two guys really that strong?"
"If you don't believe in their strength, you can go and try, but I can't guarantee you'll come back alive."
That being said, Lu Suo didn't really want Lou Hu to die, since they only had a few people left, and losing even one meant losing a bit of help.
So he offered a suggestion: "If you insist on trying, I suggest you go when there are other people around him, the more the better. Gojo Satoru, who needs to be distracted to protect others, is at his weakest. As for Natsume Yuki, I don't recommend you go to him."
"Huh? Why?" Lou Hu's face clearly said one thing—what's so great about this guy?
Lu Suo smiled and said, "The one thing that Spellcaster operators have in abundance is manpower, don't you think?"
Although Natsume is clearly more concerned about the lives of the "hostages" than Gojo Satoru, with so many cursed spirits under his command, even if they were all sent out to protect the hostages, his strength alone would be enough to ensure that Roku would not return.
Moreover... Lu Suo really didn't want to see Xia Youjie using Lou Hu's spells one day, or even see Lou Hu's figure in Xia Youjie's army of cursed spirits.
If he were to face Gojo Satoru, there might be a chance he could find an opportunity to self-destruct after being captured, thus avoiding aiding the enemy...
Lou Hu didn't take Lu Suo's words to heart. He thought to himself, "They're just two sorcerers. How powerful can they be? It's all just hype from the sorcerers themselves."
He first killed the guy named Gojo Satoru, and then he killed the guy named Natsuyu Ge too.
