Chapter 67 - Chapter 67: Situation Reversal, Zenyuan Zhikunren's Arrival

Sometimes no answer is an answer. Schwarzer chose to leave after delivering her warning.

She had no interest in Sukuna at the moment; this guy was the boss she'd arranged for the protagonist group—the boss before the final stage.

As for preventing their large-scale slaughter of ordinary people, she simply didn't want to see it, it was that simple.

Moreover, the power of ordinary people could sometimes be incredibly strong; she had left many Easter eggs, hoping someone would discover them.

Schwarzer looked at the data provided by the System. The "America" team's numbers had now reached one hundred million, a truly terrifying figure, but the usable points were few.

Most of them came from the military. The President had unhesitatingly mobilized the army, inviting those lawless individuals obsessed with killing to increase their power to "eat peanuts" (be shot).

Low-level Jujutsu Sorcerers had no power to resist modern armies. The President painstakingly pacified several major cities—of course, the most crucial point was that America lacked powerful Jujutsu Sorcerers.

"There's one hour left until the shop system opens. That's when the importance of ordinary people will become apparent."

"Although initial points cannot be used, if ordinary people work hard to refine even a tiny bit more Chakra, the accumulated points can be used."

The System analyzed this: incremental points could be used, and a team could transfer points to others.

In other words, if everyone became even slightly stronger, the "America" team could possess hundreds of millions of usable points!

This was Schwarzer's little Easter egg hidden within the rules. Currently, it seemed few people had noticed, or perhaps Jujutsu Sorcerers were too focused on themselves to pay attention.

The only unexpected thing, however, was why Kenjaku resurrected all the ancient sorcerers?

As if sensing her question, Kenjaku, at the foot of the God Tree, sneezed again, wondering who was talking about him.

Everyone thought he was plotting something, which was why he resurrected everyone and placed them in Tokyo.

But in reality, Kenjaku claimed he knew nothing; it was the Culling Game itself, or rather, "Cursed Energy" itself, that resurrected them. He was merely guilty of negligence by not reporting what he knew.

In a way, the current situation made him even more satisfied; both Itadori and Uraume had given him great surprises.

However, he had also seen Schwarzer and Uraume interact. Thankfully, neither side talked much, and Kenjaku breathed a sigh of relief, fearing the "leader" might discover something amiss.

How would Itadori and the others deal with so many powerful individuals? Kenjaku was very curious.

...

With Ryū Ishigori's defeat, the battle concluded. Fushiguro Megumi, who had been slacking off and had little presence, and Choso both stopped fighting simultaneously.

"Now you're alone. Why don't you give us the information? Maybe we'll let you go."

"Tsk, was I tricked?"

Fushiguro Megumi looked at Kakashi, who had been lying on the ground beside him. The other party's mission was complete, so with a "pop," he dissipated into smoke. As early as when Fushiguro Megumi used Rabbit Escape to obstruct their vision, Kakashi had been replaced by a Shadow Clone.

Should he exchange information for them not attacking him? But honestly, he knew nothing. Choso gazed at Ryū Ishigori, who had a severed arm and was covered in blood and gore.

Itadori could display Special Grade combat power, plus Kakashi, who seemingly possessed a spatial Cursed Technique, and Fushiguro Megumi, who was his equal—Choso had no chance of winning.

Facing this situation, Choso smiled faintly. He didn't choose to surrender, because...

"What a beautiful battle, but your Cursed Energy must be almost depleted, right?"

In the distant sky, an unfamiliar voice suddenly appeared. The few individuals who had relaxed instantly became alert, looking towards the heavens.

A woman, appearing as if she wore no clothes, draped the "sky" over herself.

"Uro Takako, Jujutsu Sorcerer, total points—9900 (Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer)."

Trouble had arrived. It wasn't just Uro Takako; other Cursed Energy signatures appeared all around them.

Kakashi and Itadori's group all realized this; their battle seemed to have attracted many people.

"Sukuna's vessel actually gained such power? Has he already been controlled by Sukuna?"

"But it doesn't matter. Tell us Gojo Satoru's whereabouts, and you can die a quick death."

Sure enough, it wasn't just Uro Takako; an old man and a young man appeared simultaneously at the end of the street—it was Zenin Naobito and Zenin Naoya.

"You must possess enough power to survive in these chaotic times, or even bring 'peace.' You should understand this, right? It's time to return to the Zenin family, Megumi."

As the head of the family, Zenin Naobito had put all his efforts into the Zenin family, and he naturally wouldn't let Fushiguro Megumi's power go.

Fushiguro Megumi was, after all, of Zenin family blood. His father, Fushiguro Toji, had entrusted Gojo Satoru with Fushiguro Megumi's care before his death, which was why Megumi hadn't returned to the Zenin family.

This current situation was perfect for recruiting him.

After all, Gojo Satoru was missing; he could no longer offer protection and had instead become the biggest problem.

Everyone was searching for Gojo Satoru's whereabouts, both to seize his power and out of fear that if he awakened, he would suppress the entire Jujutsu world again.

"If I return, will you let Gojo Satoru-sensei go?"

"He can no longer protect you. If you return to the Zenin family now, it won't be an issue for our current faction to rule the entire Jujutsu world."

"You must have seen the impact after the Culling Game began. To restore peace to the cities, a new 'government' is needed to provide order."

"Now that the higher-ups and high-ranking elders are all eliminated, only the Zenin family, led by me, has this qualification. I hope you make a wise choice."

Zenin Naobito saw his potential. Just as he said, in these special circumstances, all usable power must be integrated. The Culling Game was both a threat and an opportunity.

Fushiguro Megumi's points were as high as nine thousand, possessing very strong abilities even among Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerers. Relying on the rules of the Culling Game, it wouldn't be long before he broke through to Special Grade, just like himself.

Faced with the recruitment from his "relatives," Fushiguro Megumi could only have one answer.

"So, no matter what, you won't let Gojo Satoru go?"

"His power is essential to us, and..." Zenin Naobito didn't finish, but everyone understood what he meant.

"We are your true family, Megumi. Don't do anything foolish. If we leave someone like Gojo Satoru alone, once he awakens, there will be no chance to eliminate him."

Don't do anything foolish, huh...

"Daga, Kotowaru!"

"My favorite thing to do is say 'NO' to arrogant people."
