Gojo Satoru's impromptu creation of a 200% Hollow Purple, and Suguru Geto's tacit, flawless cooperation.
It had injured Sukuna with the blast and blown off one of Susanoo's thick legs.
That alone was enough to make Mirai look at the two of them in a new light.
By not specifying a single target for the spell, the sheer destructive power of Purple could be maximized to erase everything in its path.
This attack was limitless, even stronger than the one enhanced by Utahime's Cursed Technique.
Otherwise, even with his Infinity defense actively running, Gojo Satoru wouldn't have been injured by the massive backfire of his own attack.
Because their Cursed Energies shared the exact same origin, the damage the point-blank Purple inflicted on Gojo Satoru was far less severe than the damage it inflicted on the others.
"It's hard to say which of us is the absolute Strongest, but the weakest among us..."
Gojo Satoru raised an eyebrow at the completely miserable, half-charred Sukuna, his tone mocking. "The weakest one should definitely be Clown-senpai, right?"
Sukuna's regeneration wasn't as rapid as it had been at the beginning of the fight; his severed left arm slowly began to heal, the flesh and blood intertwining painfully together.
Sukuna looked at Gojo Satoru with a completely sinister gaze. "Heh, brat!"
"When it comes to arrogant boasting, you are undoubtedly the absolute best!"
Without Zenin Mirai constantly interfering, Sukuna was absolutely certain he could kill Gojo Satoru right here and now!
"Domain Expansion..."
A ripple appeared in the void around the three of them, and Suguru Geto, who stepped out of the crack, seemed to have suffered very little damage from the blast.
There had been advance notice from Gojo Satoru, and the rapid sacrifice of two Special Grade Cursed Spirits.
Just before the explosion of Purple, Suguru Geto had safely hidden his physical body in the alternate dimension of a Cursed Spirit's Innate Domain via Cursed Spirit Manipulation.
The two 'Strongest' had planned to pull both of their seriously injured opponents into a Domain Expansion at this exact moment of vulnerability.
But Mirai's current strength was somewhat beyond their expectations.
"Domain Expansion—Womb Profusion!"
Having fully adapted to his enhanced mechanical vessel, Suguru Geto experienced death and resurrection once again.
He had finally reached the absolute pinnacle of Jujutsu and successfully gained full control of his own Domain Expansion!
BOOM!!!
The Domain's pitch-black shell instantly enveloped everyone!
Time seemed to have turned back to a year ago, to the terrifying, chaotic scene of the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons!
A dark, apocalyptic sky, dilapidated streets, and countless grotesque Cursed Spirits emerging rapidly from dense void cracks!
The Special Grade Imaginary Vengeful Spirit, Tamamo-no-Mae, floated in mid-air, with a dark vortex rotating violently behind it, constantly condensing and compressing Cursed Energy!
In urban legend, the supreme Vengeful Spirit, Kuchisake-onna (Slit-Mouthed Woman), wielded her rusty giant scissors and relentlessly advanced toward Mirai and Sukuna's locations!
And there was also the recently deceased Vengeful Cursed Spirit, Naoya Zenin, and Yorozu!
The initiation of the Construction technique, the binding rules of the Projection Sorcery spell!
These deceased beings were all Cursed Spirits that Suguru Geto now fully controlled!
Geto's Domain revived the aura and techniques of the spirits it controlled, and each Spirit's Domain could be used to create different, overlapping, sure-hit Domain effects!
This was the truly terrifying potential of the ultimate Cursed Spirit Manipulation technique!
The Special Grade Cursed Spirit, Rainbow Dragon, floated high in the sky carrying Suguru Geto and Gojo Satoru safely!
While Geto covered Gojo Satoru so he could heal with Reverse Cursed Technique, countless terrifying attacks, completely blotting out the sky, crashed down on Mirai and Sukuna!
...
"Am I beautiful?"
The corners of her lips were violently split open, extending all the way behind her ears, and fresh blood was still dripping from them.
The Slit-Mouthed Woman wielding giant scissors asked her cursed question, and before anyone could even answer, she pointed the scissors directly at Mirai.
With the guaranteed sure-hit effect of the Domain, she didn't even need to get physically close to the target to cut them.
"What a beautiful, annoying twist!"
Mirai's tone was entirely impatient, and the Rinnegan in his eyes gleamed slightly.
BANG!!!
The Slit-Mouthed Woman violently exploded open, with half of her giant scissors clattering onto the ground.
As far as the eye could see, all the Cursed Spirits' attacks were blasted into subatomic dust before they even got close to Mirai!
Even trapped inside someone else's Domain territory, Mirai was still completely domineering and absolutely invincible!
The guaranteed sure-hit effect of the Domain was violently negated by the terrifying repulsive force of Shinra Tensei, making a fatal blow impossible!
Compared to Mirai's effortless ease, Sukuna seemed a little disheveled.
He had just finished repairing his injured body when he was caught completely off guard by Geto's sudden Domain Expansion.
Not only that, most of the sure-hit attacks within the area seemed to be aimed directly at him.
Strike while the iron is hot and kill him!
The immediate plan of this 'Strongest' duo was to first deal with the currently weaker King of Curses.
Naoya's Projection Sorcery sure-hit effect made Sukuna feel every single cell in his body swelling and becoming restless!
The concentrated death ray, condensed from Tamamo-no-Mae, rained down on his head like a violent storm!
There was also the True Sphere controlled by Yorozu, whose overwhelming, destructive love could extinguish absolutely everything, rushing straight toward Sukuna's heart!
"Tch!"
"Those two brats really underestimated me!"
Sukuna's face was grim, his killing intent surging wildly. "Domain Expansion—Malevolent Shrine!"
Sukuna could sense that the Mahoraga currently controlled by Mirai had appeared on an entirely different battlefield far away to deal with the Jujutsu High students.
Then he didn't need to hold back or hide his Domain anymore!
A demonic shrine completely built from deformed corpses rose from the ground, and all the nearby Cursed Spirits attacking him were instantly cut into countless, bloody flakes!
A tangible, divine creation manifested within an open-barrier Domain!
Stepping onto the porch of the shrine, Sukuna grinned maliciously as he looked up at the two people in the air!
Of course, Sukuna hadn't forgotten about Zenin Mirai standing on the other side!
Ten thousand paths. A hundred thousand paths. A million paths. Ten million paths...
Countless dense slashes, too numerous to be seen with the naked eye, rapidly spread outwards from the Shrine in all directions!
CRACK! CRACK!
Suguru Geto's pupils contracted sharply as the outer shell of his Womb Profusion Domain began to violently crumble bit by bit!
In the mere few seconds it took to compete in a Domain clash with Sukuna, his barrier was absolutely no match for an open Domain!
Oops!
With Geto's Domain shattered and the guaranteed sure-hit effect of Malevolent Shrine unable to be negated, he and Gojo Satoru might be instantly sliced to bloody ribbons by the slashes!
"Don't worry, Suguru!"
Gojo slapped his best friend hard on the shoulder, his Six Eyes flashing with a terrifying, unhinged fighting spirit!
He laughed like an absolute madman. "I am the Strongest!"
"Domain Expansion—Unlimited Void!"
Only one month had passed in the real world since Gojo was sealed away by the Prison Realm in Shibuya.
But Gojo felt that he had already spent decades inside that absolute nothingness.
During that long, maddening period when he couldn't use his Cursed Energy, he had constantly, obsessively mentally rehearsed the parameters and effects of an enhanced Domain Expansion to counter open barriers.
—BUZZ!!!
The exact moment Geto's Domain completely shattered, the outer shell of Unlimited Void enveloped them once again!
Standing above the Shrine, Sukuna sneered mockingly. "You brat. You're courting death!"
Open-barrier Domains undoubtedly had an overwhelming, absolute advantage in a clash against closed-barrier Domains! They would just attack the weak exterior of the shell!
Ignoring Sukuna's taunts, Gojo Satoru focused all his attention on the area he was actively strengthening!
Mottled ink dots, the ultimate black and white shimmering wildly in the void!
The constantly trembling, massive outer shell of Gojo's Domain was rapidly shrinking and solidifying!
From an outsider's perspective...
The Mei Mei siblings, who were the only ones still in front of the screen monitoring the broadcast, widened their eyes instantly!
The dark outer shell of Gojo's Domain visibly and rapidly shrank from the massive size of a skyscraper... down to the size of a small basketball!
There were no mutually canceling effects that guaranteed a hit!
The Strongest in History. The Strongest in Modern Times.
The exact moment their most powerful Domains collided unintentionally, Zenin Mirai on the other side of the battlefield was completely enveloped in the maximum, unfiltered effect of both of their Domains simultaneously!
Since Mirai didn't have his Mahoraga to adapt to the two-person Domain clash, this was their absolute best chance to slay the monster!
Invisible Cleave and Dismantle blades filled the barrier, along with a suffocating torrent of infinite information spreading outwards from the Void!
"You two clowns really do appreciate each other, teaming up like this."
A light laugh and a sarcastic remark echoed from Mirai, the cycle of reincarnation flowing brightly in his Rinnegan eyes!
With one hand raised gracefully in front of his chest in a half-seal mudra, a terrifying, divine Cursed Energy surged forth!
"Domain Expansion..."
"Extraterrestrial Demon Realm!"
BOOM!!!
