"Wow, I didn't expect Fushiguro to be so strong!"
"Whoosh, whoosh, I'm really impressed with you."
Yuji and Nobara imdiately changed their attitude after suddenly discovering there was a powerhouse in their team. They even pulled out paper fans from who knew where and started fanning gumi, one on each side.
gumi's mouth twitched uncontrollably, his cool deanor almost crumbling.
Fanning soone on a windy day when it was about to rain, what were these two thinking?
The short several dozen ters from the outer gate to the Tokyo Jujutsu High dormitory building felt so long that gumi wanted to abandon these two troublemakers and complete the mission himself.
gumi felt that these two troublemakers should team up with Takaba Fumihiko, the codian Eichi had just recruited, instead of deigning to be his classmates.
"Oh! It's getting dark!"
Seeing Yuji's attention finally shift away from him, gumi breathed a sigh of relief.
"Divine Dogs."
After seeing the Barrier Techniques lowered, gumi began to summon his Shikigami. The large white dog let out a howl and was the first to enter the juvenile detention center.
But as soon as he entered the dormitory building, gumi noticed sothing was wrong.
They had not entered a dormitory building with only a few floors.
Instead, it was a complex space that seed inspired by Muzan's Infinity Castle.
Towering buildings, nurous rooms, and many roads. It clearly was not sothing a normal dormitory building could contain.
gumi imdiately realized what this was.
An Innate Domain constructed from Cursed Energy.
You could say the Cursed Womb was easy to defeat, but you could not deny its imnse Cursed Energy. This Innate Domain was already larger than those of many Special Grade Cursed Spirits with greater strength.
"Where's the door?!"
The group quickly turned around, but the door had vanished, leaving only crisscrossing pipes.
They were trapped in the enemy's ho turf, their retreat cut off, and their future uncertain.
In this perilous situation, Yuji and Nobara followed their inner calling.
They started singing a two-person skit.
"Doo, shiyou, doo, shiyou."
The two of them, one on each side, started spinning in circles to the beat.
As they spun, the fear that had just arisen imdiately dissipated into nothingness.
At this mont, not only gumi, but even Divine Dogs began to look at the two of them with the gaze one would give troubled children.
"Don't worry, Divine Dogs rembers the scent of the exit and can lead us out."
In the next second, the two of them hugged Divine Dogs, patting him all over. Divine Dogs' tail wagged so hard it almost turned into a propeller.
"Quick, bring all the jerky!"
This ti, Paw Patrol was making a great contribution.
Hearing about jerky, Divine Dogs' eyes instantly cleared up considerably.
Troubled children? These were clearly his brothers!
"You two, at least get serious!"
gumi finally could not take it anymore. At this mont, even gumi's sea urchin hair stood up even more wildly.
"You really are amazing, Fushiguro."
"Huh?"
gumi, who was about to erupt, was appeased by Yuji's single sentence.
"Thanks to you, we can be saved. Thank you."
Yuji's straightforward words successfully struck the tsundere gumi's heart.
"It's ti to go."
His anger dissipated, gumi proactively stood at the front of the group, and his mind began pondering counterasures.
'Eichi-sensei said that my Shikigami currently don't have the ability to fight a Special Grade Cursed Spirit one-on-one, and this is also the opponent's Innate Domain, so Divine Dogs has no chance of winning.'
The Shikigami of the Ten Shadows Technique were not particularly outstanding in terms of individual performance.
However, the cooperation and even Chira of the Shikigami made up for this deficiency.
Even before enrolling in Tokyo Jujutsu High, when his strength was only Grade 1, Eichi relied on the Chira Beast, Qiongqi, to gain the ans to directly confront ordinary Special Grade Cursed Spirits, while he himself would summon other Shikigami from the rear as needed to assist.
In many situations, the Shikigami of the Ten Shadows Technique were one plus one greater than two.
After a mont of thought, gumi chose a more stable thod.
"Rabbit Escape!"
A small mountain made of rabbits appeared behind the three people.
When the two turned around, they only saw a small mountain emitting countless red lights staring at them.
In the next second, hundreds of Rabbit Escape scattered in all directions.
'This will do. Let Rabbit Escape be responsible for warning, and Divine Dogs will protect from sudden attacks.'
gumi had deeply internalized the lesson from the last ti a Cursed Spirit suddenly appeared and struck him heavily on the head, causing his Shikigami to disappear.
"These are rabbits."
Yuji picked up a Rabbit Escape by the scruff of its neck, curiously examining it.
"So cute."
Nobara was much gentler, holding up a Rabbit Escape and playfully teasing it.
"Fushiguro, is your family running a zoo?"
Yuji asked curiously.
"No, these are my Shikigami."
"Then can I also have Shikigami? Like cute dogs and that big bird from the rooftop earlier."
Yuji excitedly put his hands up to his chest, his sparkling big eyes almost shouting, "Waku Waku!"
"No. Divine Dogs and Nue are Shikigami of the Ten Shadows Technique."
"Is that so?"
In the next second, Yuji squatted on the ground, drawing circles in disappointnt.
Seeing Yuji like this, gumi felt a bit sorry for him.
"But other Shikigami are still possible. Everyone can learn basic Shikigami spells and Barrier Techniques. If you have money in the future, you can also find dea-sensei at Tokyo Jujutsu High to customize a cursed tool that can summon Shikigami."
"Really? Thank you, Fushiguro."
Hearing that there was still hope, Yuji imdiately bounced up, grabbing gumi's small hand to express his gratitude.
"Too close!"
"You're blushing."
Nobara covered her mouth, stifling a giggle.
"No, I'm not."
gumi's face turned even redder.
"Wait, go this way."
gumi's expression suddenly turned sowhat grim, and he walked directly forward.
The group stood silently before the corpse.
"That makes three confird deaths now."
After speaking, gumi turned, wanting to confirm the fate of the remaining two people first.
"I'm taking this body out."
"Whatever you want."
This ti, gumi did not clash with Yuji.
Because their original division of labor was for the two of them to confirm the fate of the five people and bring them out, while any combat would be handled by gumi.
As Yuji carried the body on his back, Nobara also proactively stepped forward to help.
At this mont, above, where Rabbit Escape had not noticed.
The Special Grade Cursed Spirit, with its lower body like a silkworm pupa, not yet fully hatched, was frowning as it looked at them.
The Cursed Womb had intended to deal with the un-fun Divine Dogs first, and then have a good ti with the remaining three people. But as soon as it approached the ground, it attracted Rabbit Escape's attention.
Reluctantly, it could only retreat to the rooftop.
Rabbit Escape could not fly, so it could not cover reconnaissance of the area above.
The Cursed Womb tilted its head, looking at the three people below.
Yuji and Nobara stood together, while gumi walked toward a passage in another direction.
The Cursed Womb instantly had an idea.
This Shikigami was summoned by that sea urchin head, and that sea urchin head was now alone.
Since that was the case, it would just get rid of the sea urchin head first, then it could have a good ti with the two people below.
After all, this was its Innate Domain.
Under the Cursed Womb's command, a giant mushroom Cursed Spirit suddenly appeared behind the two.
Rabbit Escape and Divine Dogs reacted imdiately, and gumi also quickly turned to support them.
However, after turning, gumi unexpectedly stepped into empty space.
'Nani?'
gumi looked down in disbelief. A hole had suddenly appeared in what had originally been solid ground.
gumi imdiately spread his arms, wanting to brace himself against the sides of the hole, but suddenly a powerful force appeared behind him.
gumi desperately turned his head before falling into the hole, and the last thing he saw was the Cursed Womb that had just slapped him.
