Under Kenjaku's astonished gaze, Choso's severed arm was suddenly reconnected by the canal.
Kenjaku's retreating movent abruptly stopped, then he was pulled toward Choso.
"Close-quarters combat is more advantageous for . Can't you even see that?"
Kenjaku smiled, raising his fist and smashing it toward Choso's face.
"Don't underestimate..."
A faint voice reached Kenjaku's ears.
"Hm?"
"Don't underestimate the bond between and my brothers!"
Accompanied by Choso's roar, his back began to bulge continuously.
"Wing King!"
Blood burst from his back, forming a ring with several fly wings on it. Choso's speed surged.
"What!"
Bang.
Under Kenjaku's astonished gaze, Choso, whose speed had suddenly skyrocketed, landed a punch squarely on Kenjaku's face first.
"This punch is for my brothers!"
"This punch is for our mother, who you tornted!"
"This punch..."
Bang, bang, bang!
The sound of fists hitting flesh rang out continuously, and Kenjaku's face quickly swelled up like a pig's head.
"Swine Reversal."
A blurry, almost indistinguishable voice erged from Kenjaku's mouth. The next second, terrifying gravity pressed down on Choso.
Kenjaku seized the opportunity while Choso's footing was unstable to kick him away, while he himself quickly retreated to treat his pig-like face with Reverse Cursed Technique.
His brain matter was almost scrambled just now.
When he looked up again, the composure in Kenjaku's eyes had vanished, replaced by chilling killing intent.
"I didn't expect a failure like you to grow to this extent."
Cold words escaped Kenjaku's lips.
The anger in Choso's eyes intensified.
"Flowing Red Scale." x2
"Anti-Gravity System."
The two clashed fiercely again, but compared to Choso, who had only activated Flowing Red Scale, Kenjaku, empowered by Anti-Gravity System, moved with greater agility.
Choso, already at a disadvantage in the Cursed Technique battle, was suppressed once again.
"Is this all you've got? As expected of a failure."
While continuously inflicting damage on Choso, Kenjaku also provoked him with words, trying to destabilize his ntality and expose weaknesses.
"You are not allowed to insult and my family!"
Choso roared, the cursed marks on his face spread further, and drops of fresh blood flowed from them.
A faint red glow also emanated from beneath his skin.
At this mont, Choso began to disregard his physical condition, fully unleashing Blood Manipulation to strengthen his body.
Under this desperate enhancent, Choso actually managed to fight Kenjaku to a standstill for a short period.
But only for a short period.
"Blood Manipulation: Blood teorite."
During one of their clashes, as Kenjaku was sent flying by Choso, he suddenly spun around and threw solidified blood clots, ford by his Cursed Technique, from his wide sleeve.
Pfft.
"Ugh."
The projectile-like attack pierced through Choso's body.
Choso instantly beca like a deflating balloon, his entire aura leaking out.
"Indeed, your body is almost at its limit, isn't it? Just a slight push, and it gives out like this."
As Choso struggled to maintain his state, Kenjaku's fist had already arrived before his face.
Bang, boom.
Choso was violently slamd into a building.
'Is this the end? I'm sorry, I'm a useless Oni-chan.'
Choso was in excruciating pain all over. Reverse Cursed Technique was operating at maximum output, yet he was still unable to move for a while.
At this mont, a non-existent mory suddenly appeared in Choso's mind.
"Oni-chan daisuki~"
"Oni-chan sugoi."
"Oni-chan, ganbatte!"
For so reason, this ti, it was not three people who appeared behind Kenjaku, but four.
'If I die, what will happen to my little brothers?'
"Take care of your own brothers. They are your most important family, aren't they?"
"If that's the case, don't entrust them to others as if you're running away."
Eichi's words echoed in Choso's ears.
A surge of power began to churn within Choso.
Puff, puff.
Kenjaku patted his disheveled clothes, then walked toward the building that Choso had crashed into.
Ding, ding, ding.
At that mont, Kenjaku's phone rang.
"Moshi moshi, Satoru? I understand."
Kenjaku hung up the phone, a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes.
Just now, one of his followers told him that Satoru had left Jujutsu Headquarters and was heading toward the Kamo Family.
'Did he get news of my appearance? But it's impossible for him to set off so quickly.'
Even if Kenjaku thought until his head smoked, he probably would not guess that Satoru simply had a sudden whim and wanted to take the opportunity to throw the old geezers into a claw machine and play with them.
You say there is no claw machine that big?
Just have Eichi make one for him using a barrier.
Or have Suguru make one using Cursed Spirits.
"Let's retrieve this guy and go."
Choso's strength barely caught Kenjaku's eye.
Kenjaku planned to kill Choso, then take his body before it got cold and turn it into a cursed tool.
At that ti, he could either make him into a swimr or give him to Abe no Seii.
What he did not expect was that during the ti he spent on the phone and hesitating, Choso, encouraged by his brothers, once again achieved a breakthrough.
"Domain Expansion..."
"Hm?"
The sudden voice made Kenjaku pause. Because the voice was too faint, he was a bit unsure if he had misheard.
"Blood Ocean Nine Phases of Life."
A crimson blood ocean suddenly engulfed Kenjaku. At the edge of the blood ocean, nine fetuses of various forms circled around.
"You can still grow? I take back what I said. You are not a failure."
Kenjaku inverted his hands, the backs of his fingers touching each other.
"Die for !"
The blood ocean surged toward Kenjaku.
The sure-hit effect forced Kenjaku to defend with all his might.
Looking at Kenjaku, who had already completed the hand signs, Choso felt extrely anxious.
He knew that Kenjaku possessed a Domain Expansion far superior to his own.
Therefore, his only chance of victory was to defeat him before Kenjaku activated his Domain.
Just like when Mahito used a 0.2-second Domain Expansion, and Todo used Simple Domain to touch him with the sure-hit effect.
This was Choso's only chance of victory.
However, the current disparity in strength and condition between them was too great.
"Domain Expansion: Womb Profusion."
Crack.
The open-barrier Domain shattered Choso's Domain.
'I'm sorry, little brothers. Oni-chan might not be able to protect you anymore.'
Choso closed his eyes and silently apologized in his heart.
"Kamo Noritoshi!"
When he opened his eyes again, he was already holding a cursed tool that contained Shinkage-ryu: Simple Domain.
Even if he died, he would bite off a piece of Kenjaku's flesh!
"Tch, how troubleso."
Unexpectedly encountering such fierce resistance, coupled with the worry that Satoru might arrive at any mont, Kenjaku reluctantly chose to flee from the mad dog-like Choso.
"Don't... run..."
Choso, whose legs had been severed by Kenjaku in their mutual attack, gripped the ground with his hands, crawling toward Kenjaku's retreating figure.
Soon, his consciousness plunged into darkness.
