Chapter 101 - Toji Fushiguro: Why is there a Danger Sign Above My Head?

"Should we just ignore those ordinary people?"

Toji Fushiguro asked Medea beside him.

"They're just brainwashed insects. Once their leader is gone, it's fine to leave them be."

Medea walked alongside Toji Fushiguro, holding Riko Amanai.

"That kid, is she dead?"

Toji Fushiguro's gaze fell upon the corpse of Riko Amanai in Medea's arms.

"She's dead. At least for now."

Medea gave a definitive answer.

'For now?'

Toji Fushiguro looked at Medea strangely.

'Never mind, it has nothing to do with me anyway. My job is done.'

Toji Fushiguro was in an excellent mood.

He'd completed a commission and made a fortune, and the guy with the bump on his head had even given him a substantial bonus on the spot.

Most importantly, Toji Fushiguro had achieved something he had always yearned for: proving himself to the Jujutsu World and the Zenin Family.

The inverse Heavenly Restriction, a complete zero cursed energy without any reservations, had granted Toji Fushiguro a natural resistance to cursed energy and a physical body at the peak of human potential.

He would have been highly valued and meticulously trained in any family.

After all, for many weaker Jujutsu Sorcerer families, relying on cursed tools to exorcise cursed spirits was quite common.

But Toji Fushiguro happened to be born into the Zenin Family.

Born into a feudal family that valued cursed techniques above all else.

A non-sorcerer is not human.

Under this belief, Toji Fushiguro, with his zero cursed energy, was not only unvalued but held a lower status than even "non-human" ordinary people.

Because even ordinary people possessed at least a trace of cursed energy.

However, Toji Fushiguro had absolutely no cursed energy.

Therefore, the first thing Toji Fushiguro did after becoming strong enough was to cause chaos in the Zenin Family and then storm out.

This was indicative of the resentment simmering within him.

This time, with his victory over Satoru Gojo, Toji Fushiguro had slapped the Jujutsu World across the face.

"Look, your so-called Divine Child, the one who changed the landscape of the Jujutsu World from birth, was killed by me, a monkey with zero cursed energy. It's hilarious."

Haha, hahahaha.

It was as if a massive boulder weighing down his heart had been lifted; Toji Fushiguro had never felt so light and joyful.

"I just made a lot of money, want to go celebrate? I know a few places that cater to important guests."

Toji Fushiguro invited Medea.

"No, I still have things to do, and you don't have time to celebrate right now."

Medea looked ahead with a half-smile.

Toji Fushiguro scratched his head, planning to find a sugar mama to celebrate with later.

But the next moment, Toji Fushiguro's eyes widened in disbelief.

Following Medea's gaze forward, he saw a person who should have been dead standing there.

"Yo, you guys made quite a scene."

Satoru Gojo stood before them, his gaze sweeping over the burning headquarters of the Star Religious Cult behind them before returning to the two.

Clouds drifted across the sky, and golden light bathed Satoru Gojo, lending his figure an air of divinity and unreality.

Toji Fushiguro even wondered if he was hallucinating from sheer happiness.

He raised his left hand, pushing aside the white hair covering his forehead, and a newly healed wound met his eyes.

"I'm still very much alive and kicking!"

Satoru Gojo grinned broadly.

"...Reverse Cursed Technique."

At that moment, Toji Fushiguro finally understood why Satoru Gojo was alive.

"Correct."

Satoru Gojo's gaze fell upon Riko Amanai in Medea's arms.

Through the Six Eyes, he saw Riko Amanai completely encased in a transparent barrier, not a trace of her aura escaping it.

"Hey, why are you here?"

Satoru Gojo maintained a slightly crazed smile as he tilted his head and looked at Medea.

"It's like he's targeting me too."

Medea had a feeling that if her next answer didn't satisfy Satoru Gojo, he'd kill her along with everything else.

"Riko Amanai is fine. If you want to catch up, head to Tokyo Bay tonight. Eiji and Suguru Geto will be there, oh, and that maid named Kuroi."

After speaking, Medea walked away directly.

"Oh right, this guy is pretty useful. Make sure you don't kill him."

With that, Medea left the area that was about to become a battlefield.

"Meddlesome woman."

Medea's words made Toji Fushiguro a little angry.

Toji Fushiguro had just killed Satoru Gojo once, and now Medea was telling Satoru Gojo to spare his life?

The surprise that Satoru Gojo was still alive gradually turned into rage.

"It's just you and me again."

Satoru Gojo no longer paid attention to Medea, not even glancing at Toji Fushiguro again.

"Haha, hahahaha, speaking of which, I should thank you. I never had any clue about Reverse Cursed Technique before. I couldn't understand anything those two around me who could use Reverse Cursed Technique were talking about..."

When Satoru Gojo first saw Medea and Riko Amanai, his frenzied state had briefly subsided. But after confirming Riko Amanai's safety, Satoru Gojo completely let loose.

This guy's completely lost it.

Toji Fushiguro looked at the increasingly unhinged Satoru Gojo with a grave expression.

"The reason you failed is simple: you didn't cut off my head, and you didn't use that cursed tool when you pierced my brain."

Tch, what an annoying brat.

Uraume opened its mouth, and Amaterasu fell into Toji Fushiguro's hand.

"What are you talking about? Isn't the fight just beginning?"

A crazed expression also appeared on Toji Fushiguro's face.

Normally, if the commission was complete and the reward secured, Toji Fushiguro would have already fled.

But standing before him now was the destined apex of the Jujutsu World, a sorcerer who was the complete opposite of him, one who was born with everything.

Toji Fushiguro now had only one thing he wanted to do: to completely kill Satoru Gojo, to kill the misfortune that the Jujutsu World had imposed upon him.

"Huh? Is that so? Maybe!"

Satoru Gojo spread his arms wide and laughed up at the sky.

At this moment, Satoru Gojo seemed less like the Divine Child of the Jujutsu World and more like a demon king of the cursed world.

Toji Fushiguro went all out, swinging Amaterasu at Satoru Gojo with extreme speed.

But it was useless.

The awakened Satoru Gojo's Six Eyes observation ability had reached a new level. Every attack from Toji Fushiguro was completely captured by the Six Eyes.

As they fought, Satoru Gojo's body gradually floated into the air.

"Reverse Cursed Technique: Red."

A sphere of crimson light instantly appeared before Toji Fushiguro.

Toji Fushiguro blocked this blow with his right hand, holding Amaterasu horizontally in front of him, while his left hand protected Uraume, which had shrunk to his chest.

Uraume was too weak; even a slight ripple from such an attack could kill it.

"What a monster."

Toji Fushiguro, his face covered in blood, stared at Satoru Gojo floating in mid-air.

At this moment, a surging fighting spirit ignited in Toji Fushiguro's heart.
