"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"...
Amidst the sharp sound of the arrows slicing through the air, the seemingly ordinary arrows unexpectedly continued to accelerate in the air, becoming increasingly powerful.
Even though the arrows weren’t infused with cursed energy and weren’t any special cursed tools, sohow as they were fired, not only did their speed increase, but they seed to possess a consciousness of their own, arranging themselves strategically.
"Oh?"
Reiger tossed aside the bell fragnt in his hand and watched the scene before him, a faint smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
The arrows spread out before him, either turning automatically or detouring, tracing unbelievable trajectories and shooting towards Reiger from all directions.
"Buzz!"
Just as the swarm of arrows was about to hit Reiger, their speed suddenly slowed, becoming progressively slower, until they were just inches from Reiger’s body, where they froze and could move no further.
"...Sure enough, the inherent invulnerability of [Limitless Cursed Technique] is active?"
Kamo Noritoshi, holding his bow and arrow, wasn’t surprised by this; he just felt a slight heaviness in his heart.
Being one of the Big Three families, the effects and strength of the Gojo Family’s [Limitless Cursed Technique] were crystal clear to Kamo Noritoshi.
He knew his attacks were ineffective against the [Limitless Cursed Technique], but he still wanted to try and hoped the opponent hadn’t activated the inherent invulnerability of the [Limitless Cursed Technique].
This wasn’t a gamble of luck, but a rational consideration.
The [Limitless Cursed Technique] is indeed powerful, but as a technique, it consus cursed energy upon usage.
If the cursed energy isn’t imnse, naturally it’s impossible to constantly keep the inherent invulnerability active; even with abundant cursed energy, disregarding the consumption, constantly maintaining the invulnerability would cause severe ntal strain, exhausting energy and focus.
Hence, Kamo Noritoshi wanted to test if Reiger had kept the inherent invulnerability active all along, hoping the opponent had insufficient cursed energy and chose to minimize consumption, only activating the invulnerability at critical monts.
However, reality proved that even against non-cursed energy-infused attacks, Reiger’s inherent invulnerability remained active, indicating his cursed energy was ample enough to sustain such consumption.
And from his casual deanor, it was obvious that even with the invulnerability constantly active, his brain didn’t bear too much strain.
"Could it be... has he reached Gojo Satoru’s level?"
Kamo Noritoshi’s heart grew heavier and heavier.
Gojo Satoru, the strongest curse mage of the current era, had mastered the automatic uninterrupted activation of the inherent invulnerability in the [Limitless Cursed Technique] a decade ago, allowing the technique to operate on its own, automatically assessing the cursed energy strength, mass, speed, and other facets of any object approaching, determining the threat level before deciding whether to stop or repel it based on the evaluation.
In this state, Gojo Satoru’s technique only responded to forces or objects that pose a threat, ignoring those without, thereby minimizing the technique’s consumption, achieving 24/7 activation of the cursed technique.
This is also why Itadori Yuji’s punches can’t touch Gojo Satoru, whereas Yaga Masamichi’s fists can.
Understanding the principles of Gojo Satoru’s technique, Yaga Masamichi always controls his movents within the range where [Limitless Cursed Technique] won’t auto-activate, at most leaving a lump on Gojo Satoru’s head.
As for the ntal load from nonstop technique activation, Gojo Satoru uses the sa principles, employing reverse cursed techniques to alleviate brain fatigue, keeping his mind in a constantly refreshed state.
Whenever the ntal load accumulates to a certain limit, Gojo Satoru’s reverse cursed technique automatically operates, healing the brain.
Thus, Gojo Satoru reached the peak, becoming the strongest curse mage of the era.
Kamo Noritoshi suspected that Reiger had reached the sa level.
If so, then the opponent he now faced was undoubtedly the strongest curse mage, a monster on the sa level as Gojo Satoru.
"No, it’s only been two months, he couldn’t have reached Gojo Satoru’s level."
Kamo Noritoshi forced himself to change his line of thinking.
At least, the information he had showed that it’s only been two months since Reiger first ca into contact with [Limitless Cursed Technique].
In two months, to develop impressive cursed energy manipulation skills without Six Eyes and thereby learn to wield the [Limitless Cursed Technique] was already incredibly astonishing.
If Reiger could reach Gojo Satoru’s level in just two months, then he would not be a re monster, but a deity.
But when Kamo Noritoshi thought this way, he couldn’t help but recall the attack Reiger launched on Todo Aoi at the Capital City’s Jujutsu High School entrance.
[Hollow Technique]— this technique should only be executable by soone who’s mastered reverse cursed techniques, a possessor of [Limitless Cursed Technique].
Reiger could wield [Hollow Technique], doesn’t that indicate he’s already mastered reverse cursed techniques?
And as for Gojo Satoru... how long did it take him to learn reverse cursed techniques back then?
As far as Kamo Noritoshi knew, even for Gojo Satoru, it seed he only successfully learned reverse cursed techniques when he was in his second year at Jujutsu High School.
