Chapter 39: Gojo vs Geto

“Indeed, the Ten-Style Sorcery can truly be called one of the Three Great Visions of the Cursed Realm!!!”

Summoning his semi-special grade cursed spirit, Hongryong, Geto Suguru couldn’t help but show a gleam of joy in his eyes.

A cursed spirit in the form of a dragon, Hongryong was, quite simply, large, incredibly sturdy, and possessed immense power—his strongest cursed spirit to date.

Though he frequently used this cursed spirit, it was a bit too simple in design, and it seemed unlikely to reach any higher potential.

However, now! With the addition of the Ten-Style Sorcery in this moment!!

As the shadows consumed Hongryong, the dragon’s body soared into the sky, growing at least ten times its original size!

“Hahaha!!! What’s that, Suguru!!! That’s ridiculously huge!!!!”

Even as Gojo Satoru gathered gravitational force towards Hongryong, the sheer overwhelming size of the dragon prevented Gojo’s gravitational pull from fully connecting, and he felt the dragon’s immense strength tear apart his own force.

He couldn’t help but shout out in disbelief.

‘The power of the Ten-Style Sorcery combined with cursed spirits!!!’

“Unbelievable!!!”

Even though it was merely enlarging the cursed spirit using shadows, the power it exhibited was immense!!

If applied correctly, this could truly become an unfathomably powerful technique!!!

Gojo thought to himself, though he quickly dodged Hongryong’s tail as it swung down towards him, using his Instantaneous Movement to retreat into the sky.

“But this isn’t enough!!!”

Technique Reversal – Akka!

A sharp, high-pitched noise rang out as a red spot gathered at the tip of Gojo’s fingers.

A red laser, like a bullet, shot out and pierced through Hongryong’s body! BOOM!

“Kiieeeeee!!!”

“I didn’t think it would end here! Satoru!!!”

With a third of Hongryong’s face and body torn away, Suguru smiled, filled with exhilaration. He continued to unleash all the power that surged from within, creating a new cursed technique with his fingers.

“Come forth, Okyeon!!!”

“And plus Hongryong!!!”

As he recaptured Hongryong, Suguru summoned two powerful dogs, demonstrating the incredible physical abilities of the Ten-Style Sorcery.

With Hongryong’s power now added to them, these two new beings—akin to wolves—were born with a fierce size and strength beyond imagination!!!

“Plus… Enra-Gwi and Sujong-Gwi!!!”

In addition, he summoned two second-grade cursed spirits, which he didn’t often use.

These two spirits, born from the spirits of an arsonist and a drowned corpse, each possessed the powers of fire and water.

Although their abilities were limited—fire could only produce a moderately strong flame spray, and water could only manipulate a small amount—when they merged with Okyeon, they became powerful enough to summon two wolves, each with fire and ice powers akin to the sun and moon.

“Hahahahahaha!!! Are these children of Fenrir?!? Skoll and Hati!!!!”

“That’s right! And such rituals will only make these spirits even more powerful!!!”

Indeed, ritualistic words and actions themselves could be empowering.

The moment Suguru gave the wolves the names Skoll and Hati, their bodies began to transform, now radiating the unmistakable aura of special-grade power.

With two special-grade spirits at his side, Satoru smiled as he linked his hands together.

“Hehehehe!! Then, I can get a bit more reckless, right?!? Suguru!!!”

“Of course!!! Today, I’ll reach the same peak as you!!!”

With two special-grade spirits, Suguru was now able to deliver a truly powerful blow!!!

“Merely a facade!!!”

“It’s coming…!!”

Suguru muttered, lowering his stance.

The Facade Murasaki. The most powerful technique in the limitless category.

“By combining the techniques of Akka and Ao, I generate a virtual mass and fire it out.”

The expanding force that bends and distorts space creates a virtual mass capable of tearing through space itself—an unstoppable attack that can only be blocked by matching it with an equal force or evading it.

However, evasion was not an option.

“I want to reach the same level as Satoru! I’m aiming for the peak!!”

If he evaded, he would never reach that level.

So, he decided to join the realm of equal strength…

With that thought, Suguru quickly placed his hands on the two wolves, transforming them into a cursed spirit collaboration orb.

“Well?”

“If you’re combining Ao and Akka, then I’ll use the opposite fusion! Fire and ice combined!!!”

“…Hahahahahaha!!! As expected!!! Suguru, you’re the best!!!”

Technique Reversal – Ao.

Cursed Spirit Collaboration – Okyeon – Skoll’s technique extraction – Great Enra Il Shik.

A blue orb formed behind Gojo, while white flames rose from one of Suguru’s hands.

Technique Reversal – Akka.

Cursed Spirit Collaboration – Okyeon – Hati’s technique extraction – Great Hongryong Il Shik.

Another red orb appeared behind Gojo, while a black ice materialized on Suguru’s other hand.

“Façade ♪ Murasaki!”

“Extreme Category—Technique Fusion (Whirlpool) – Six Paths Il Moon Technique!”

The clash between the gray-shifted fire and ice and the violet orb shook the battlefield.

BOOM!!!!!!!

***

“Strong…”

It seemed the two were not far from mastering Domain Expansion.

Watching the battle unfold, I muttered to myself.

Thankfully, Yaga-sensei wasn’t around, as the entire mountain had turned into a chaotic battlefield from their clash. I

f I had faced them head-on, I would have had a hard time.

Having acquired the power of Muhan, I now had excellent mobility, and my attack power was already at max level.

Even so, their combined attack power seemed nearly impossible to cut through.

“…Looks like it’s time for a cooldown.”

For the time being, there seemed to be no way to rapidly grow stronger within the Cursed Technique rotation world.

Not until the main story began progressing.

That being said, I’d soon be turning to a different world—a world where I could get stronger quickly.

The world of the Devil Fruits seemed like the right place.

I watched as their battle reached its conclusion, knowing it wouldn’t be long before Murasaki’s gray distortion consumed everything and Suguru was defeated.

After all, it would be difficult for someone who had just incorporated the Ten-Style Sorcery to overcome Muhan.

Maybe if they conquered the ultimate Mahara, things would be different, but that’s another story.

As I watched, Gojo, pleased by the fight and feeling reinvigorated, exchanged smiles with Suguru, who had gained a renewed sense of his own potential.

I waved as they returned, supporting each other.

“It’s time for the pause button.”

It was time to return to the world of Oda.
