Chapter 46 - Fushiguro Toji

This golden character card exceeded Takeshi's expectations.

This was a man in a black T-shirt, which had become a tight-fitting shirt due to his slightly bulky physique.

His lower body consisted of gray trousers, cinched at the waist by a black belt, and he wore black flat-soled shoes.

He had black hair, slightly pale skin, and eyes full of recklessness. A smile, with a vertical scar at the corner of his lips, seemed to mock others' overestimation of themselves.

Compared to other golden character cards, this man's attire and appearance were rather unremarkable. One might even pass him by without recognizing who he was.

Yet, merely by standing there, he exuded an incredibly terrifying sense of oppression and presence.

Takeshi recognized his identity at first glance.

Fushiguro Toji.

The Heavenly Restriction user from Jujutsu Kaisen.

Originally named Zenin Toji, he was born into the Zenin clan, one of the three great clans of the Jujutsu world. Due to his lack of cursed energy, he was discriminated against by his clan. After leaving the Zenin clan, he married a woman with the surname Fushiguro.

He was a sorcerer killer, possessing an innate, Heavenly Restriction.

Born into a sorcerer clan, he was born without cursed energy. In return, he gained an unparalleled physique and extraordinary athletic talent, with his five senses greatly enhanced.

Relying on his extreme sense of touch, smell, and hearing, Toji could even sense the movements of Cursed Spirits without relying on sight. This extreme level of senses was even more precise than Observation Haki from One Piece. After all, Observation Haki requires concentration, whereas Toji's ability is passive.

If Yoriichi was the pinnacle of swordsmanship, then Toji was the pinnacle of physical prowess.

He appeared twice in Jujutsu Kaisen: once, he nearly killed Gojo Satoru, the extreme of human sorcerers, and another time during the Shibuya Incident, where he displayed less than a tenth of his peak living combat power, yet was still able to easily overwhelm the Special Grade Cursed Spirit Dagon.

Later, after recognizing his son Fushiguro Megumi, he committed suicide to prevent himself from rampaging and harming his son.

"Amazing! As expected of my goddess of luck!!!"

Seeing that the golden character card he had drawn was Fushiguro Toji, Takeshi excitedly jumped up.

As expected of golden character cards, none of them were disappointing.

Having obtained a character card, Takeshi naturally couldn't resist trying it out.

Full Body Take-Over: Ace."

Takeshi first checked out Ace, a character he had always liked.

Ace's characteristic freckles began to appear on his face. An orange cowboy hat appeared on top of his head, black shorts on his lower body, a tattoo of the Whitebeard Pirates' flag on his back, and various accessories were also put on.

Ace's memories began to surface in Takeshi's mind.

From a young age, he was taken by Garp and entrusted to Dadan for upbringing, became best friends with Sabo, and then, along with Luffy, the three became sworn brothers.

At seventeen, he set sail, formed the Spade Pirates, and defeated 'Lizard King' Hanafuda, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. He was later invited by the World Government to become a new Warlord, but being proud, he refused.

He passed through Wano Country, fought Kaido's daughter Yamato, and later challenged the Strongest Man in the World, Whitebeard, unfortunately losing. Convinced by Whitebeard, he joined the Whitebeard Pirates and became the commander of the Second Division.

After learning that his subordinate Blackbeard had killed Thatch, the commander of the Fourth Division, he was furious and pursued Blackbeard despite warnings. As a result, he was defeated by Blackbeard and faced a public execution.

This prompted Whitebeard to lead his grand fleet to rescue him, thus igniting the Summit War. Ultimately, he was killed by Akainu while protecting Luffy.

After reviewing Ace's memories, Takeshi couldn't help but sigh.

Ace was also a pitiable person. As for being a pirate or not, that was merely the World Government's term for those who defied their orders.

The worldview of One Piece was very simple: everyone was a pirate, and the World Government was the biggest pirate.

Takeshi opened his hand.

Whoosh!

His entire arm turned into super-hot flames. If he wished, he could also unleash powerful Fire Fist attacks like Ace. However, it was better not to do that late at night.

Whoosh!

Takeshi's body turned into flames, then flew out of the window, and subsequently reformed into human shape.

"Is this the unique ability of a Logia-type Devil Fruit user?"

Takeshi was very excited, playing around in the yard. When he watched One Piece, he used to dream of eating a Devil Fruit. Especially a powerful Logia-type Devil Fruit.

He never thought that his childhood wish would be realized in such a way.

Although Ace was only a purple character, in some aspects, his strength was not inferior to golden characters. Unless absolutely necessary, he would not recycle this character card.

After testing for quite a while, Takeshi finally had his fill and returned to his original appearance.

Takeshi was very satisfied with Ace. In the future, he could even use it as a main combat character card, as the consumption of golden character cards was a bit much for him to bear.

Next, his gaze turned to the golden character card, Fushiguro Toji. This was the main event.

"Full Body Take-Over: Fushiguro Toji."

Takeshi felt his body's magic power being rapidly drained and consumed, while his physical abilities were rapidly improving in an incredible way.

His appearance also began to change. This time, the change was very simple: his clothes transformed into Toji's attire, and his face became a blend of his and Toji's face, 50% his and 50% Toji's.

In fact, no matter which character Takeshi used, his face would be like this. This was also why Erza couldn't recognize Yoriichi as Takeshi in the arena.

Toji's memories surfaced in Takeshi's mind. Unlike others, Toji's memories were darker, a large part of them involving his work as a sorcerer killer. In terms of killing methods alone, Toji was practically a killing machine. Merely watching his memories was heart-stopping.

The memories quickly filtered through, finally settling on the scene where he committed suicide in front of his son, Megumi.

Takeshi clenched his fists.

"So strong! Is this the physique boosted by Heavenly Restriction?"

The extreme physical strength gave him an ultimate confidence, which was different from when he transformed into Ulquiorra and Yoriichi.

Ulquiorra's strength came from his Reiatsu and the powerful body of a Vasto Lorde-class Arrancar.

Yoriichi's strength came from his peerless swordsmanship.

As for Toji, his strength came from his terrifying physical prowess. He felt that with just a slight effort, he could kill a cow with a single punch. This was not a figure of speech, but an accurate and undeniable fact.

Feeling this powerful body, as if there was an inexhaustible supply of strength within him, Takeshi stretched his waist.

Crack... Crack...

His joints and bones cracked audibly.

"Let's try it."
