Chapter 91 The Second Player
Gojo Satoru actually secretly and curiously tried to remove "No Bottom Line" and instead used cursed power as defense and took a punch from Saikai Haruto.
The two sides fought closely for a while, and soon Gojo Satoru quickly moved away from him. On the surface, he remained calm, but in fact, he was quietly breathing in and out in his heart.
This guy is not only fast enough, but also powerful. He dared to bet that even though he had just successfully blocked the blow, the places where he was hit would definitely be covered with bruises when he looked back.
——Wow, I have to say, it really hurts... It's much stronger than he originally thought.
But there is more than one unexpected and annoying thing.
Gojo Satoru felt that the force Saikai Haruto used was definitely not his full strength.
Although there was a flash of surprise on that guy's face after he saw him successfully take his punch, Gojo Satoru was definitely not wrong - that expression on his face was 100% that he thought he couldn't take it so easily, right? And he even subconsciously held back a little, didn't he? !
But what's annoying is that even though he restrained his strength and didn't use his full strength, Gojo Satoru rubbed the places where he was hit by Saikai Haruto when they had "exchanged injuries" before - even if he used cursed power to block, it was not without limits after all, and the places where he was hit still hurt damn much.
I'm very angry.
It's not that Gojo Satoru is "ignorant", but is this really the power that ordinary humans have? It's not like he hasn't seen real ordinary people before.
But Gojo Satoru was also certain that what Saikai Haruto used was indeed only his own physical power as an "ordinary human being", not the power of a "spellcaster" or a "cursed spirit".
But looking at Saikai Haruto on the opposite side, Gojo Satoru now looks completely relaxed and at ease, probably because he didn't try his best.
——What's going on? Doesn't this make him want to fight him with all his fists, using only strength and skills without using any cursed energy?
Gojo Satoru felt his teeth itching.
And clearly, they had just exchanged injuries and hit each other, and he clearly felt pain where he was hit, but why did Xi Haiqing Dou not change his color at all and look as if there was no problem at all? !
It was as if he hadn't used any strength at all just now... Wait, he really hit him just now, right? He remembered that feeling, he really hit him, right? ?
What's even more annoying is that he can also keenly feel that the fighting style of Xi Haiqingdou and him is completely different from other styles - this guy has never received any systematic and specialized fighting courses, and he relies entirely on his own brain reaction to survive. A better way to put it is "returning to the basics, returning to the original simplicity", but to put it bluntly, it is actually a random fight without any rules.
But even so - Gojo Satoru still couldn't beat him - just in close combat.
It is really because Igarashi Yuuki's physical body and reaction qualities are too superior, so superior that they are almost inhuman.
Under these circumstances, the less rules his fighting follows, the more flexible and adaptable he becomes, making him more unpredictable to others.
If he hadn't been able to sense the traces of cursed energy coming from his body through his six eyes and respond in time, it's hard to say whether Gojo Satoru would have become even more vicious.
On the contrary, it is much more difficult for Gojo Satoru to successfully beat Saikai Haruto than for Saikai Haruto to successfully beat him - when he does not use unlimited power.
Gojo Satoru threw another fist at Saikai Haruto's face, and then suddenly changed direction in the middle of the attack, intending to hit his shoulder with his arm; at the same time, he exerted force with his waist and legs, raised his legs and swept the air fiercely -
On the other side, the black-haired, green-eyed boy had a hint of surprise in his eyes. It was obvious that he didn't expect that he would do such a "feinting to the east and attacking in the west".
But his reaction was even faster. Actions that others could not imagine how to avoid were as easy as eating or drinking water in his eyes.
The body, which was originally half turned sideways, jumped up reflexively and twisted quickly in the air at an incredible angle. Then, the next moment, the boy immediately reappeared in another position - with a smooth and consistent movement that no one else could replicate, he perfectly avoided the attack from Gojo Satoru, which changed twice in a row.
——There's no way. Who made Saikai Haruto have such first-rate intuition, reaction speed, and physical response that he even surpassed the level of ordinary humans even though he had no school and "never really practiced"? Even if he closed his eyes and relied on "intuition" to avoid being hit by Gojo Satoru, Saikai Haruto could do it successfully as long as he focused enough.
Gojo Satoru: “.”
It's not surprising at all.
He knew this would be the outcome.
This guy is not a normal person, right?
Although he became more and more excited during the fight, Gojo Satoru still felt an indescribable sense of frustration. Especially after that, because Saikai Haruto dodged several times instead of continuing the fight, turning the fight into a game of "dodgeball", he gradually became unhappy.
What the hell, he wanted a good fight instead of a game of "dodgeball", okay? Even if he was caught off guard and hurt, he didn't say anything, did he? Why was he hiding? Shouldn't he attack now? !
——The fight became more and more exciting, and Gojo Satoru was even beginning to forget what the real purpose of the fight was in the first place.
After roughly "finding out" the opponent's background and confirming that there is no way to force him to reveal the "secret" about the cursed spirit if he continues like this, Gojo Satoru, who was almost completely immersed in this "battle", suddenly sobered up a little and narrowed his eyes in dissatisfaction.
"No more playing. I'm tired of it."
He suddenly stopped and stepped back, his blue eyes flashing with excitement and madness.
"Hey, do you want to try to dodge this? Look carefully, the technique is in the order, "Cang"——"
The next moment, blue cursed energy emerged from between his fingers, condensed into a sphere, and then swung directly toward the black-haired boy opposite him along his fingertips—
Standing a little further away, his attitude gradually changed. At this moment, watching the two of them fighting more and more solemnly, Xia Yujie's face suddenly changed, and his pupils shrank slightly: "Satoru——"
The one he just threw at Igarashi was "Sang", right? !
If Igarashi hadn't dodged it, something serious would have happened!
Besides, Igarashi is not a sorcerer at all, so he can’t see the existence of “Sou”, right?
However, Xia Yujie's worries did not come true.
“…Huh?”
The black-haired, green-eyed boy paused for a moment because of Gojo Satoru's sudden change. After Gojo Satoru used "Cang", a hint of obvious confusion flashed in his bright peridot green eyes.
Then, as if he could see the existence of "Sang", he quickly turned his body without blinking and quickly dodged Gojo Satoru's "Sang".
After he dodged successfully, "Cang" hit the place behind him smoothly and also hit the ground successfully, creating a large dent in the ground.
With his quick reaction and keen sense of danger, even if he couldn't see the existence of "Cang", he could still dodge it successfully relying on his own intuition.
Gojo Satoru's expression remained unchanged, not at all surprised by this, and the interest in his eyes grew even stronger.
"Come again! Watch this!"
He raised his voice slightly, and threw "Cang" at Xi Haiqingdou several times in succession.
As expected, Xi Hai Qing Dou successfully dodged them one by one without any hesitation.
Then, as if he realized something, he suddenly stopped dodging his body.
Gojo Satoru's "Sou" had once again aimed and flew in the direction of Saikai Haruto, but the baby-faced boy with black hair and green eyes suddenly began to stand still on the bumpy ground far away, just like Gojo Satoru. At the same time, his hands began to make gestures that were almost a one-to-one replica of Gojo Satoru's.
The boy's smooth and soft face had a calm and composed expression, and two short words came out of his mouth clearly: "Cang"——"
The moment his voice came out, a "Cang" that looked exactly the same as the "Cang" that Gojo Satoru had hit rose from between his fingers and then flew towards Gojo Satoru!
This time, whether it was Gojo Satoru, Kagome Kei, or Hanayamain Haruna, they all clearly saw two extremely similar "Sora" rushing towards each other from in front of Gojo Satoru and Saikai Haruto, and in a very short time they quickly collided in mid-air, and then the two "Sora" canceled each other out and dissipated into the air together.
——This time, Geto Suguru finally "saw" the existence of cursed power from Haruto Saikai.
And Gojo Satoru's "Six Eyes" finally succeeded in capturing the traces of cursed power from Saikai Haruto, which was no different from his own.
