Chapter 53 87/88 Two chapters merged into one



Simply put, today's Sugizawa Village is an endless cycle of tragedy.

The resentment of the villagers formed a curse, which kept repeating everything that happened on the day of the "Tsuyama Murder Case". If an outsider accidentally walked in, he would "inevitably" be killed and join their "reincarnation".

Gojo Satoru explained: "The time you enter the village is very important. If you enter the village at the beginning of the massacre, you will definitely be killed and become a member of the 'reincarnation'."

But the horror of the curse is not just that. The truly terrifying thing is that even if a sorcerer exorcises all the "villagers" inside, at midnight, everything will return to the starting point.

——This is a curse that cannot be removed or broken.

That is the curse.

Another cycle passed, and the man who had slaughtered the villagers with a pistol staggered to the back of the mountain and shot himself again.

In the pitch-black night, Geto explained to Riko Amauchi, "The last time we came here, we saw the ghosts of the villagers."

"Undead?!"

"Well, the villagers worked together to curse the murderer, trapping the murderer's soul forever in the cycle of reincarnation on this day. However, while cursing the murderer, they also cursed themselves."

The souls of the villagers and the murderer tortured each other for eighty years.

"But the last time we met, we had already persuaded those souls to leave."

To be precise, it was Al who used the "Healing Iron Fist" to "intimidate" people to Xianwang Township. As for whether those villagers are willing to give up everything and enter reincarnation, it depends on the ability of the proprietress of Xianwang Township.

Al pointed, "Look."

Riko Amauchi and Miri Kuroi looked over and saw that after the man shot himself, a translucent soul climbed up from the body. It looked at the dead silent village in the distance and stood there stupidly, like a puppet.

"The other dead souls are gone, but the curse formed by their resentment remains. The curse will trap the murderer in this day forever, without reincarnation or escape, until the day when the murderer's soul is completely exhausted and completely dissipated."

Tenuchi Riko wondered, "Then why did they kill passers-by who accidentally entered the village?"

Kuroi Misato said helplessly: "Miss, there is no reasonable cursed spirit in the world. The instinct of cursed spirits is to hate humans."

Tenuchi Riko: “…That’s right.”

"Well, that's about it. We promised the villagers to help them avenge their death. Anyway, the murderer's soul won't last for many years. It's the same if we come back to tame him in a few years. We just need to remember to reinforce the maze at the entrance." Gojo Satoru said, "Speaking of which, our food is almost gone, right? When can we go out to get some more?"

Kuroi Misato said: "Indeed, we only have some instant noodles and biscuits left in stock now."

Xia Yujie's eyes suddenly changed.

Al noticed his abnormality: "What's wrong, Jake?"

Xia Yujie's face darkened and he replied, "The cursed spirit I left outside the shrine has been exorcised."

The air suddenly became still.

Kuroi Misato said solemnly: "You mean..."

"Enemy attack." Gojo Satoru slapped his thigh and climbed up from the ground. He rubbed his hands and said, "Then let's go out and meet them. Xiaolizi, Kuroi, you go back to the house immediately and don't come out. Jie, you leave two cursed spirits for them to defend themselves."

"good."

Geto Suguru left the strongest "Rainbow Dragon" and the illusion-type special-grade cursed spirit "Incarnation of Tamamonomae" for them. One is for defense and the other is for escape. Both are cursed spirits that can be used in the worst situation.

Al turned into a spirit on the spot, and his body turned into star-like lights and disappeared before everyone's eyes.

In front of the torii in Sugizawa Village.

A group of cursers stood in front of the Skull Rock, laughing. They were of different heights, weights and bodies, and their clothes were more bizarre than each other, like a group of street thugs.

"Yo, it finally came out."

The fat man in the lead grinned, revealing a mouthful of jagged teeth.

Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru walked out from behind the torii and looked down at the group of uninvited guests.

Geto Summer Oil spoke first: "How did you find this place? We clearly don't have any remaining cursed energy."

The fat man shook his phone and said proudly, "Of course someone showed us the way. Boy, there is no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world. Even if you hide in such a deep forest, we can still find you."

Gojo Satoru raised an eyebrow: "Do you really want the bounty?"

The fat man said without hesitation: "Ah, we are different from the lackeys of some high-ranking members of the Jujutsu Association. We are very short of money."

The cursers behind him burst into laughter.

A lackey of the upper echelons...

Gojo Satoru was amused by his words.

He held up a finger: "Have you thought about how you're going to die?"

The fat man laughed, and two insect-like and human-like shikigami came towards Gojo Satoru and Kagome Ken. He said cruelly: "You are the ones who are going to die!"

Other sorcerers also took action one after another, intending to work together to take down these two special sorcerers.

The boys didn't take this mob seriously at first, but Al, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly said, "Masters, be careful, there's another guy hiding in the dark."

Xia Yujie raised his eyebrows, and a translucent water-type cursed spirit suddenly rose from the ground behind him. The cursed spirit's hands turned into sharp water blades, cutting the rushing shikigami in half.

——This is the cursed spirit that was subdued in Gintama High School before.

The next second, more cursed spirit wells emerged and grappled with the cursers who rushed over.

Gojo Satoru's blue eyes scanned the surroundings, but he didn't find the "guy hiding in the dark" that Al mentioned. He thought for a moment, raised his hand and made a gesture, and Gojo Satoru's cursed power exploded everywhere in the forest. After the continuous explosions, the man hiding in the shadows was forced out.

The muscular man with a scar on the corner of his mouth landed lightly and asked with interest: "How did you find me?"

He was sure that he should not have been "seen" by the Six Eyes. If Gojo Satoru had found his location using the Six Eyes, they would only need to target him and there would be no need to blow up everything around him.

Gojo Satoru tilted his head and said, "Hey, you look pretty powerful. Are you the guy who led these scumbags?"

"Ah, that's right. You didn't leave any cursed residue, but the traces left by humans when they move around are not just cursed residue, but also footprints, smells, and other clues. I'm quite sensitive in this regard."

The scarred man chuckled and said, "You sorcerers rely too much on the power of spells."

Gojo Satoru asked him, "Are you here for the bounty of Amanouchi Riko as well?"

“You could say that.”

Xia Yujie recognized this person.

This person...is probably the guy that Shirai has been harassing for a long time these days.

"You are the guy who posted the bounty on the Curse Master Forum? The mastermind behind the Cult of the Star?"

"The mastermind? That's an interesting theory, but unfortunately, I'm just a paid guy. Someone paid for Riko Amauchi's life, and I want to earn the money, that's all."

Fushiguro looked up at the Torii behind them and said, "The Star Plasma Body, is it hiding in there? Seeing that you guys put the Star Plasma Body in there without any worries, does that mean that this area is also controlled by the cursed spirits?"

“…”

Xia Yujie did not answer.

Fushiguro smiled, "Well, I was originally planning to kill only Rokugan, because once the Curse Spirit Operator dies, the Curse Spirits in the body will go out of control, which will be very troublesome. But to be honest, you've been bothering me a lot these days, so why not just kill both of them."

Anyway, we have already reached such a deep forest, so it doesn't matter if the cursed spirits get out of control on a large scale.

Gojo Satoru laughed: "What a big tone! It's rare to find someone more arrogant than me."

He said such arrogant words, but his voice in the team channel was very calm: "This guy obviously has some strength."

Geto Summer agreed: "Just like Al said, the more powerful the sword, the more ordinary its appearance is. It's probably the same principle. Be careful, this guy can easily exorcise Shirai."

"Got it. Jay, I'll leave this to you while I go meet that guy. Al, you wait in the dark, I always feel that this guy is a little weird."

Xia Yujie shrugged and said, "Okay."

Al also said, "I understand."

He also intuitively thought that the scarred man was the most dangerous. If the situation was not right, he would intervene in the fight between Gojo Satoru and the man, even if Gojo Satoru yelled angrily, "You are trying to steal my head again."

Gojo Satoru took a step and rushed out. His figure was so fast that only a shadow was left. Fushiguro Shiori spit out a small cursed spirit from his mouth. The cursed spirit quickly stretched its body and tightly wrapped around Fushiguro Shiori, and then spit out a cold long sword from its mouth.

It has no cursed power, it's not a cursed tool, it's just an ordinary sword.

Just as Gojo Satoru and Fushiguro Shigeki were fighting, a curser seized the opportunity to get rid of the cursed spirit and rushed towards the Torii.

As long as he catches Tenuchi Riko hiding inside, he can get a lot of money!

Xia Yujie kicked the man who tried to sneak in and knocked him to the ground. He sneered and said, "Don't be impatient, uncle. Play with me for a while."

Curse Master: “…”

Play, play with your head!

Meanwhile, Gojo Satoru could sense Fushiguro Shinobu's abnormality more and more clearly. The cursed power on this man was negligible... No, it couldn't be said to be negligible. The cursed power Gojo Satoru could sense was only the cursed spirit entangled in the man's body and a trace of cursed power (Shirai's mark) lingering on the man's temple. The man's own cursed power was 0.

Fushiguro Shigekiru hid behind trees, stone statues, cursers, and even behind cursed spirits and shikigami. He was agile and elusive, and no one knew where he would attack from. Gojo Satoru simply blew up everything within 20 meters, leaving the man with nowhere to hide.

The cursed spirit that was entangled with the man suddenly opened its mouth, and countless fly heads flew out from it, rushing towards Gojo Satoru. The man's figure and the weak cursed power disappeared behind the fly heads at the same moment.

“…”

This guy is using various methods to confuse the perception of the Six Eyes, including using weapons without cursed power and taking out a large number of fly heads with weak cursed power. These are all preparations for Gojo Satoru's Six Eyes.

This person...

"Right now!"

Two small fish cursers took the opportunity to attack Gojo Satoru.

Gojo Satoru: “…”

Yes, these spellcasters of varying strengths were also used to distract his attention. If one thought more deeply, the real purpose of all the previous attacks might just be to drain his energy and strength.

I was severely targeted.

A simple area was formed at Fushiguro's feet without anyone noticing.

The scene in front of Fushiguro Shiji suddenly changed into a dark corridor. An imaginary cursed spirit in a high school girl's uniform walked out of the toilet and asked, "Am I-Am I-Am I beautiful?"

“…”

Fushiguro raised his eyebrows.

This is the simple domain of the curse spirit. As long as you don't answer the other party's questions, you will remain in a stalemate and unable to attack each other. Once you answer the questions, you will suffer a "guaranteed" attack... Interesting, is it assistance from the curse spirit operator?

He smiled and said regretfully, "Sorry, what should I say? You are not my type."

Just as he finished speaking, seven or eight sharp wounds were cut on his face by the imaginary cursed spirit, but at the same time, Fushiguro Shigeu pulled out a second-level cursed tool and stabbed the imaginary cursed spirit in front of him.

Level 1 curse, exorcism!

The next second after the simple domain was broken, Geto Summer Oil appeared behind Fushiguro Shiori. Geto Summer Oil stretched out his hand, intending to extract the cursed power core of the cursed spirit on Fushiguro Shiori's body.

The cursed spirit that was entangled with the man had been providing him with various weapons and interferences since the beginning. Judging from his well-prepared appearance, I wonder how much more he had prepared to target Gojo Satoru.

To tame this cursed spirit is equivalent to cutting off a man's left and right arms, and it will become easier for Gojo Satoru to fight against the enemy.

Fushiguro Shiro grinned, "Naive."

Kayuki: “……!”

The cursed spirit entangled in the man actually resisted the extraction of cursed power by Xia Yujie! At the same time, a short knife stabbed Xia Yujie's abdomen from bottom to top!

What?

Suddenly, a figure condensed and squeezed in between the two of them. The heroic spirit with light-colored long hair pushed Kagome Geto away and kicked Fushiguro Shinobu.

“——!”

Al's unexpected appearance scared Fushiguro Shiji. He had no time to dodge, so he followed his instinct and pushed the dagger in his hand hard. The dagger pierced Al's arm, and Fushiguro Shiji was knocked away.

Bang!

Fushiguro fell to the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood, and stood up again.

Even though he was hit head-on by the Heroic Spirit, he didn't seem to be seriously injured.

The man turned to the heroic spirit in red and white boots and said with a smile, "Hey, how come there's another helper here?"

The dagger-like cursed weapon pierced Al's arm deeply. The heroic spirit with light-colored long hair had an indifferent expression as he casually pulled out the knife and crushed it into slag.

"Are you okay, Jack?"

Summer Oil: "...It's okay."

He had just taken the risk of approaching Fushiguro but failed. If Al hadn't come out and pushed him, he would have been seriously injured if not killed.

"I'm sorry, that cursed spirit is his contracted cursed spirit, I can't subdue it."

"It's OK."

Al stood firmly between Geto Summer Oil and Fushiguro Shirone. Gojo Satoru crushed the head of a shikigami and shouted, "Geto, that guy has the reverse Heaven and Curse. Don't get close to him!"

"!"

The reverse sky and curse bond, at the cost of not having any curse power, gained an extremely strong body. The strength, speed and explosive power of the body are all unmatched by others.

Xia Yujie said in a deep voice: "I understand."

They have been complacent for too long and almost forgot that there are always people better than you. As shikigami users, it is really too frivolous for them to actively approach an enemy they don't know the depth of just for the reason of "seizing the cursed spirit".

If it weren't for Al...

A mist appeared around Geto Suguru, and soon, the light mist turned into thick mist, swallowing up the figure of the cursed spirit operator. Many cursed spirits of different appearances crawled out of the ground under his feet, and then scattered in all directions immediately. They exuded the same aura as Geto Suguru, and were obviously used to protect Geto Suguru.

A majestic Moon Palace rose from behind Fushiguro Shigeu, and under the moonlight, the magnificent palace was covered with chocolate syrup like mud.

Fushiguro Shiori: “?”

What is this strange thing?

If you say it looks good, it's so dirty that it looks like it just crawled out of the mud. If you say it looks ugly, it's quite delicate if you look closely.

He decisively left the Moon Palace.

This time, she just managed to avoid a grenade thrown by Al, which exploded directly on the Moon Palace, breaking a small part of the Moon Palace that was rolling with chocolate paste.

Fushiguro raised his eyebrows and said mockingly, "You are a teammate of the Curse Spirit Operator, but you still have to use this kind of weapon that doesn't distinguish between friend and foe. What? Are you planning to fight yourselves?"

Al turned a deaf ear to him. He took out his pistol with an expressionless face and fired continuously in the direction of Fushiguro Shinji. Fushiguro Shinji turned around and deliberately lured Al to attack the Moon Palace created by Geto Suguru.

“…”

The characteristic of "Incarnation Kaguya" is that the more it fights, the more it regenerates. In addition, "Incarnation Kaguya" has never been officially registered, so Fushiguro Shige has no idea about the ability of "Incarnation Kaguya". Al and Suguru Jet simply take advantage of her and are happy to see him cause more damage.

Fushiguro Shigeki gradually sensed a sense of disharmony in their attitudes.

What's going on? Why are they still fighting? And does that guy have unlimited firepower? He didn't even stop to change the magazine. Logically, the opponent should have run out of bullets long ago.

Just when they were in a stalemate, Gojo Satoru used a "Cang" to completely destroy several cursers who were entangled with him.

Gojo Satoru threw away his sunglasses, his blue eyes filled with excitement for the battle.

He said to himself excitedly, "Family-inherited techniques have both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that I can directly absorb the valuable experience left by my predecessors and avoid many detours. The disadvantage is...ha, the information about me is really spread everywhere, which is really annoying."

All the people and even all the equipment brought by Fushiguro Shigeki were prepared for Gojo Satoru. The opponent's purpose was obvious, which was to use these to wear down his fighting power and make his reaction slow.

"It's a very wise decision to weaken me. But, did you achieve your goal?"

Fushiguro Shier dodged Al's attack and said, "Unfortunately, no, you are more energetic than I thought. It seems that you are actually sleeping well."

"Of course." Gojo Satoru said as a matter of course: "I am not fighting alone."

"It's a very passionate speech, but I'm no longer at the age to appreciate it."

Fushiguro Shinji turned around and rushed towards Gojo Satoru despite Al's firepower. He pulled out a cursed tool from the cursed spirit's mouth and stabbed it towards Gojo Satoru's neck. Gojo Satoru skillfully constructed an unlimited barrier, but the cursed tool went straight through the "unlimited" barrier. Gojo Satoru's pupils shrank, and he immediately leaned back and narrowly avoided it.

The attack missed, but Fushiguro Jyouji turned his wrist and the cursed weapon penetrated the bottom again and stabbed straight into Gojo Satoru's chest.

“Enlightenment!”

This unexpected development shocked everyone, but before they could think about why Wu Bo Ji was penetrated, Xia Yujie and Al attacked at the same time.

The black-haired and white-clothed Special Grudge appeared on the battlefield. Sadako opened his mouth and a powerful thought came over like an overwhelming force, directly knocking Fushiguro Jyouji out.

The next second, Al appeared behind Fushiguro Shirō and punched Fushiguro Shirō in the spine. Immediately afterwards, a torrential rain of fists fell down on him.

Both family members encountered life crises one after another. A certain nerve in Al's brain was repeatedly provoked, and crazy anger surged into his mind, suppressing the last rationality.

Boom——!

Fushiguro was smashed into the human-shaped pit. Al aimed his gun at him and fired dozens of shots without hesitation.

Bang, bang, bang…

Seeing that their attention was drawn to Fushiguro Shinji, the other cursers rushed into the Torii to grab the head of the Star Plasma Body. However, at this time, the Moon Palace that had been destroyed into pieces had been reorganized to three times its original size. Countless puppets with chocolate paste flowing on them crawled out of the Moon Palace, and a rain of arrows rushed out, stabbing all the enemies into sieves.

A cursed spirit wearing a feathered robe of heaven held up the full moon.

——Special grade cursed spirit, "Incarnation of Kaguya-hime"!

Thick fog enveloped Gojo Satoru. In the fog, Geto Suguru supported Gojo Satoru and said, "Satoru, how are you?"

Gojo Satoru covered the hole in his chest and spat out a mouthful of bright red blood, but his demeanor remained as arrogant as ever: "It's okay, I won't die."

"Sadako" came up, a familiar red light flashed in her hands, and she began to use the reverse technique to heal Gojo Satoru's injuries. Its efficiency was slower than that of Ieiri Shoko, but it was enough.

Gojo Satoru whispered, "That cursed tool has the ability to cut off all cursed powers and can penetrate the limitless."

Xia Yujie said gloomily: "He really came prepared."

"Ah, we underestimated the enemy."

The boys, who had never been so fierce before, smiled at each other. Gojo Satoru wiped the blood from his mouth and said, "Jay, you stay here to support us. I'll go help Al."

"…Hey, the wound hasn't healed yet."

"It's okay, we can fight now."

On the other side, the gunfire finally stopped, and Fushiguro stood up staggering in the dust. His whole body was soaked in blood, but he was still alive, still able to move, and still able to launch new attacks.

This is the power of heaven and curse.

He let out a low laugh and muttered to himself, "What a bad deal. I already feel a little regretful, but, things have come to this point... Ha, hahahahahahahahaha!"

Fushiguro opened his hands and said frantically: "All of you, go to hell!!!"

Al said coldly: "You are the one who is going to die."

Sadako's thoughts swept up all the cursers present, and the rain of arrows from "Incarnation of Kaguya-hime" fell densely. The shikigami and cursed spirits wailed and dissipated in the rain of arrows. The cursed spirit that was entangled with Fushiguro Shiori was also lost in the chaos. In this situation, Fushiguro Shiori could no longer get any external support.

He waved his special-grade spell tool, Youyun, and rushed forward with all his might: "Come on——!"

Xia Yujie shouted loudly: "In the name of the Command Seal, Al, release the Noble Phantasm!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Command Seal on the back of his hand disappeared, and abundant magic power filled Al's whole body.

Gojo Satoru also made a hollow gesture, "The technique is forward - "Cang"!"

Al's eyes froze: "——Destroy all harmful things! I will do my best to bring happiness to people!"

As "Sang" devoured Fushiguro Shirō, a huge phantom of a nurse appeared behind Al, holding up a pure white sword.

Boom——!

Sugizawa Village.

Tenuchi Riko clasped her hands together and waited anxiously.

Kuroi Misato suddenly shouted, "Ms. Riko, they are back!"

Tenuchi Riko quickly jumped off the Rainbow Dragon and rushed to the door, with the "Incarnation of Tamamonomae" following closely behind her.

What came into her eyes was Gojo Satoru covered in blood, the equally ferocious Kagome Geto, a strange boy with blond hair and blue eyes, and a large group of cursers following behind.

Tenuchi Riko: “…”

Tenuchi Riko hesitated and asked, "Are you guys okay?"

Gojo Satoru and Kagome Kagome sat down on the steps at the door and nodded silently.

Tenuchi Riko was surprised: "Are these all the cursers who came to attack me? They... uh, are they still alive?"

"..." Gojo Satoru said expressionlessly, "He was almost dead, but someone had the Heroic Spirit release a treasure that can restore health to the group."

The Heroic Spirit smashed down a Noble Phantasm, and the teammates and enemies came back to life.

Xia Yujie sighed expressionlessly: "Stop scolding."

Perhaps they were used to the ferocious style of the Heroic Spirits in their daily lives, at that moment, they all believed from the bottom of their hearts that Al would release a powerful Noble Phantasm.

The result... cough.

Xia Yujie said, "Forget it, don't make up for it. These people were saved by the Command Seals. If I kill them like this, what's the point of losing the Command Seals... And as far as the result is concerned, no one on our side died. Let's just regard this guy as teaching us a lesson."

“…”

Indeed.

There are still many strong people in the world, and it is far from the time for them to become arrogant and complacent. The appearance of Fushiguro Shigekiru has sounded the alarm for them.

In this battle, Al also vaguely realized something.

The strength of lv.70 is actually still not enough. If you raise the level to the maximum level early, you will be more comfortable at this time.

Gojo Satoru accepted this result meaninglessly, probably because of Rokugan's inherent coldness. When he was hot-blooded, he really wanted to kill Fushiguro Shinji, but now that he was angry, he didn't care about the other party at all.

Al also had no objection. In this regard, he and Gojo Satoru were willing to listen to Geto Suguru.

Jie Jiang said forget it, so forget it.

As for Riko's share, they will go to Panxing Sect in person to ask for it back.

The power of "Nightingale" was completely used up in this battle. Al switched back to his crazy personality again. He took out a red pen from his pocket and replaced the lost Command Seal for Geto - of course it was not the real Command Seal, as there was only one left.

"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere else?"

Gojo Satoru shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm fine. It's just that the bloodstains on my clothes look scary. Well, your treasure is actually quite valuable."

Xia Yujie said: "Well, I'm fine, I just have a headache."

He dispatched three special-grade cursed spirits, "Incarnation of Tamamonomae", "Incarnation of Kaguya-hime" and "Saitako" at once, as well as several first-grade cursed spirits, "Rainbow Dragon", "Shirai" and "Slit-mouthed Woman", and many other cursed spirits. His consumption was indeed quite severe.

This is the first time to control so many high-level cursed spirits at the same time.

Tenuchi Riko blinked her eyes and suddenly realized something. She pointed at the blond-haired, blue-eyed boy and asked, "Who are you?"

They got along so naturally that she didn't even notice at first that there was a different person inside.

Gojo Satoru smiled and replied, "Of course it's your favorite Al."

Tenuchi Riko: “…”

Tenuchi Riko was shocked and said, "This guy didn't look like this before, did he?!"

Al said confidently, "I am sick."

Tenuchi Riko: “…”

Just as he was about to say this, Geto Kagome replied: “…”

“HA ...

[Ding. Congratulations to the host for successfully changing the fate of the important character of Jujutsu○Sensor, Amauchi Riko. Mission progress 1/10, please keep up the good work, host!]
