A bustling city with heavy traffic.

A man dressed in monk's robes with a distinct stitched scar on his forehead walked across the road, a lock of black bangs falling over his face, reflecting a mischievous smile.

It was Geto Suguru, Itadori's mother.

Behind him followed three figures invisible to ordinary people.

One Cursed Spirit asked in confusion, "Is it really necessary to use one of Ryomen Sukuna's precious fingers to confirm his strength?"

One-eyed, one-mouthed, short in stature, with Mount Fuji on his head emitting bursts of hot steam, and his ears plugged with corks.

It was Hu Bao (Jogo's affectionate nickname), who was always strong and only fought in high-level matches.

"Because a half-hearted probe is useless, and we also gained relevant information."

Jogo snorted, "I hope that's not just an excuse."

Hanami chattered away, only to be met with Jogo's displeased scolding, "Shut up!"

"Even though I can't understand your language, the content involuntarily drills into my mind. This feeling is too disgusting."

Geto Suguru unhurriedly walked into a coffee shop.

"Welcome. Just one person?"

"Yes, just me."

The waiter quickly led them to table number five and handed him a glass of iced water with ice cubes floating in it.

Geto Suguru noticed a very handsome young man with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes sitting at the next table, idly scrolling on his phone, as if waiting for someone.

However, he didn't detect much Cursed Energy on him.

"So, your boss wants to reverse the current roles of humans and cursed spirits, is that right?"

Jogo tapped the table lightly, "There's one difference."

"Humans are made of lies; their outwardly positive emotions and actions must have ulterior motives."

"But hatred and murderous intent, and other negative emotions, are all genuine and unadulterated. We, the cursed spirits born from these emotions..."

"Are the pure, true humans!"

Jogo's single eye was bloodshot, and his voice was cold, "Fakes should disappear."

Geto Suguru was unfazed and immediately retorted, "And in the current situation, it's you who are disappearing."

"So we ask you, how can we defeat the Jujutsu Sorcerers?"

Geto Suguru held up two fingers, "Before the war begins, two conditions must be met."

"First, make Gojo Satoru unable to fight."

"Second, make Ryomen Sukuna our ally."

At this point, he hesitated, then held up half a finger, "Jujutsu High also has a first-year student named Araki Itsuki. He and Yuta Okkotsu combined count as half an influencing factor."

"Gojo Satoru? We'll all attack him together and kill him, won't we?"

Geto Suguru heard this, inwardly mocking Jogo's overestimation of himself, and was about to speak.

Pfft!

The young man next to him suddenly let out a strange laugh, almost spitting out his coffee.

Geto Suguru looked over warily, only to see the young man waving his hand repeatedly, "Sorry, I just thought of a joke. I hope I didn't disturb you."

Geto Suguru smiled gently, "It's fine."

He turned back to continue chatting with Jogo, "He'll escape, and you might even all be exorcised. So I suggest we seal him instead."

"Using the special grade cursed object, the gate of the prison."

"The gate of the prison?!"

Hearing that name, Jogo instantly became agitated, "Is that forbidden item in your hands?!"

The small Mount Fuji on his head couldn't help but erupt.

Geto Suguru chuckled, "Jogo, don't get so excited, you'll get hot..."

However, before he finished speaking, his pupils suddenly contracted, looking at the opposite side in surprise.

The young man from the next table had appeared beside Jogo at some point, picking up the water glass from their table and using it to plug the Mount Fuji on Jogo's head!

The faster the ice in the cup melted, the uglier Jogo's face became.

When?!

Why didn't I notice this young man!!!

Araki Itsuki showed a bright and cheerful smile, waving at Geto Suguru.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Araki Itsuki."

Then he looked down at Jogo to his right, and without a care in the world, patted his head.

"So this is Jogo?"

"He's quite cute, even though he's small."

Upon hearing this, Jogo's small face instantly flushed red!

"Who are you calling small! Who are you calling small!!"

Jogo's right hand condensed a ball of flame from Cursed Energy, and he immediately turned and slammed it towards Araki Itsuki's head, intending to burn him to ashes.

Clap!

However, Geto Suguru's expression was serious, and he grabbed Jogo's arm!

"If you make too much of a commotion, I'll be exposed."

Thinking of Geto Suguru's role and the gate of the prison, Jogo extinguished the flame in his hand, "You're lucky this time!"

Araki Itsuki listened, then pointed outside indifferently, "Shall we talk outside?"

Geto Suguru hadn't expected Araki Itsuki to be so bold, yet the Cursed Energy on him was very faint, just like an ordinary human.

Why did he know Jogo's name?

Why didn't he run away? Was it blind arrogance or did he have something to rely on?

Araki Itsuki gave Geto Suguru a mischievous smile, then stood up and left directly:

"Follow me."

Jogo's eyes revealed undisguised malice, and he immediately followed behind Araki Itsuki.

A deserted road by the mountain forest.

Araki Itsuki stopped first, turning to gaze at Geto Suguru and the others who had followed.

Jogo's flushed face hadn't faded yet. Seeing Araki Itsuki stop, he scoffed, "Planning to die here?"

Araki Itsuki pulled a clean tissue from his pocket and wiped away the liquid from the corner of his mouth.

"You're wrong. I'm planning to enjoy a feast here, that's more like it."

Darkness, annihilation, fear, death, cursed spirit, hatred, resentment, pain, tyranny, gloom, dead silence... endless negative emotions and terrifying aura suddenly erupted.

Centered on Araki Itsuki, the surrounding trees swayed violently and whistled from the impact of the erupting aura.

Geto Suguru and the others simultaneously felt a chill in their hearts, as if the shadow of death was clutching their hearts.

"What's with these negative emotions, darker and more terrifying than Cursed Spirits?!"

Who exactly is the Cursed Spirit here!

Geto Suguru's heart trembled; he somewhat doubted his eyes.

Jogo could no longer suppress his inner rage and rapidly charged at Araki Itsuki to kill him.

"Heh-ha!"

With an excited, frenzied shout, Jogo's short body leaped high, then instantly smashed down like a meteor.

However, Araki Itsuki didn't dodge or evade; a monstrous scythe appeared in his hand.

Bang!

A huge wave of air expanded wildly, and the road beneath Araki Itsuki's feet cracked under the strain, but the scythe firmly blocked Jogo.

Then Araki Itsuki's arm muscles bulged, he let out a sinister laugh, and with a wild swing of the scythe, he directly flung Jogo away.

Bang!

Jogo's body slammed into the side of the mountain, creating a gully dozens of meters long.

Just as Araki Itsuki was about to press his advantage, a mud and stone opening had already appeared from underground.

Pfft!

With a loud bang, a hundred-meter-long pillar of flame instantly erupted, completely engulfing Araki Itsuki, who had just tried to get up and leave.

Jogo emerged from the broken opening, laughing with two fingers together, "He's nothing special after all."

Unfortunately, a strange and absurd scene suddenly occurred within the towering pillar of fire.

A strange black vortex began to appear where Araki Itsuki had been standing. The flames that had shot skyward were being unreasonably swallowed and absorbed.

They began to rapidly collapse towards the black vortex, and eventually all the flames disappeared, annihilated within it.

Araki Itsuki's figure reappeared, his clothes completely undamaged.

"Your flames aren't bad."

The monstrous scythe's single eye opened, and the tyrannical whispers of a demon echoed.

"Give up struggling; the apocalypse is approaching."

Geto Suguru looked at the scythe in surprise, "A talking Cursed Tool? I've never seen one before."

Araki Itsuki held up the scythe, pointing it directly at Jogo, "Layast, today you shall feast on flesh and blood!"

"Hmph, ha ha!"

Thump thump!

A terrifying sonic boom rang out, and Araki Itsuki stirred up a huge wave of air, directly rushing to Jogo's side.

The monstrous scythe swung down, its exaggerated and elegant blade imbued with purple-black death omen star power, aiming to cut Jogo in half at the waist.

Whoosh!

In a flash of lightning.

Jogo's right hand ignited with raging flames, rapidly slapping towards the incoming monstrous scythe. Before contact was even made...

Hot, wild flames began to unleash and explode recklessly.

It turned out that Jogo intended to use the impact force generated by the explosion to block Araki Itsuki's attack.

But a terrifying purple-black aura once again appeared around Araki Itsuki.

The soaring flames, the unbearable high temperature, even the heat in the air was dissipating, being absorbed and devoured by Araki Itsuki.

The towering pillar of flame disappeared, and Jogo's body was thus exposed before Araki Itsuki.

Just as the monstrous scythe was about to cleave Jogo at the waist...

Countless tiny roots suddenly erupted from the ground. Several tough roots grabbed Jogo's body, quickly pulling him away.

Meanwhile, the tough roots around Araki Itsuki coiled and lunged like venomous snakes, tightly wrapping around his body.

At the same time, three roots with exceptionally sharp tips stood up, like spears aimed directly at his head and neck.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The tough, sharp small roots made the sound of crossbow bolts, striking rapidly, intending to pierce Araki Itsuki.

Crash!

However, Araki Itsuki's muscles bulged, veins throbbing, and he forcibly tore apart the tough roots that were coiling around him with brute strength.

At the same time, the monstrous scythe flashed rapidly, cutting the three sharp spears into pieces.

Amidst the scattered root debris, Araki Itsuki shook his neck and scoffed at Hanami, who was making hand signs in the distance:

"If it were Blue Silver Entanglement, I'd give you some leeway, but these roots? Forget it!"
