Chapter 122 - Chapter 124: Toji's Stroke of Genius

Combining the panel bonuses he has obtained so far, Zenin Kiyoshi's current cursed energy has reached the level of a Special Grade Sorcerer.

But in terms of actual combat, there is still a distance from a Special Grade Sorcerer.

Let's take "the weakest Special Grade Sorcerer" - Suguru Geto, who was not prominent in the original work, as a comparison.

In terms of physical combat, Geto could suppress both Yuta Okkotsu and the then-complete form of [Special Grade Over Cursed Spirit - Rika Orimoto]. And Gojo Satoru personally admitted that before the two of them broke up, Geto's physical combat was quite powerful. From these two points, Kiyoshi's close-quarters combat ability is probably weaker than Geto's.

Even with the enhancement brought by the Heavenly Restriction and Projection Sorcery, for a gatekeeper of the special grade like Geto, Kiyoshi is still not enough.

In terms of jujutsu performance, although Kiyoshi has currently mastered a variety of innate techniques, these innate techniques are all incomplete, or rather, flawed.

And in the battles of sorcerers, a thing like an innate technique is like a cursed energy utilization efficiency amplifier. A good innate technique can bring a very considerable enhancement.

In Zenin Kiyoshi's cognition, the output of a sorcerer is basically summarized by him into a formula.

That is: Input cursed energy X Innate technique amplification = Attack strength.

For example: Gojo Satoru inputs the cursed energy of one Sukuna finger X Limitless technique's Red (damage output rate set to 50) = Attack strength of 50 fingers.

And the same output strength, if it were to be delivered by Jogo, might be such a concept.

That is: Jogo inputs the cursed energy of ten Sukuna fingers X Flame technique (damage output multiplier of 5) = Attack strength of 50 fingers.

In other words, in this process, Gojo Satoru only used one-tenth of Jogo's cursed energy to achieve the same combat effect as Jogo.

This is the natural crushing brought by an excellent innate technique.

This talent is enough to create a gap of nearly several times in the output of cursed energy between the two sides under the same total amount of cursed energy.

And this kind of thing is an innate talent. Even if one wants to catch up later, there is no way to start, and one can only sigh at the injustice of the world.

However, this kind of thing should be a common problem in Japanese comics. In the early stage, they clamor about hard work and passion, friendship and bonds, and in the later stage, it becomes a theory of bloodline.

Anyway, no matter what, the Giraffe Fruit is just not as good as the Sun God Fruit!

The reincarnation of Asura and Indra is just a hundred times stronger than you ordinary ninja!

Thinking about those things, Zenin Kiyoshi couldn't help but sigh again.

He has a habit that he thinks is quite good. He likes to strip the system from himself and see how far he can go in the jujutsu world just by relying on his familiarity with the plot.

However, unfortunately, in his multiple deductions, he has only one final choice.

That is to fly abroad directly before the plot begins, and absolutely not to participate in any of the events, otherwise he would have a great risk of death.

Zenin Kiyoshi never attributed his success to his ability. He deeply knew that without the system, he was no different from an ordinary person.

Therefore, thinking of the rules of this shitty jujutsu world, Kiyoshi felt a wave of irritation in his heart.

And it was at this time when Kiyoshi was sighing that Kento Nanami, who had come over to help, said timidly:

"Um, why did you suddenly sigh? Is there something wrong with the data I made?"

Hearing Nanami's slightly hesitant and guilty voice, Kiyoshi quickly shook his head and explained:

"No, no, Nanami-kun, there's nothing wrong with your data. I was thinking about something else, so I couldn't help but sigh a little. Your data is very beautifully done, and there are no problems at all. Have you studied these things in advance?"

Hearing Kiyoshi's explanation and praise, the young Kento Nanami was slightly stunned, then turned his head with some embarrassment and said to Kiyoshi in a low voice:

"When I was living in Norway before, my grandfather liked to take me to some extracurricular tutoring classes to study, so I'm relatively sensitive to these numerical things. On the contrary, you seem to be the real genius, Zenin-kun. I have to use a pen and calculator to calculate these things for a long time, but you just know the answer with a glance."

To Nanami's praise, Kiyoshi felt a little embarrassed. After all, although he looked like a brat on the outside, his soul was actually in his twenties. To deceive a child like this was still a bit shameful for him.

"It's just something I learned in school before. You also know that I'm not Japanese. Let's not talk about this. It's really been hard on you today, to make you come over and do that bastard's hard labor for free."

Zenin Kiyoshi changed the subject and at the same time once again condemned the evil deeds of that bastard Toji.

This guy actually used the bait of treating everyone to barbecue and brought them all here in a small bus to do hard labor.

He didn't even spare Nanami, who had come to visit.

He stuffed them all into the bus in one go.

And in Kiyoshi's subsequent inquiries, Toji told everyone that the supermarket owner had taken a few old employees to Tokyo to handle some procedures today, and there was no one in the whole supermarket.

The condition that the owner gave Toji was that if he could keep the supermarket running steadily, then one-fifth of the day's turnover would be given to him.

To the store owner's proposal, Toji accepted without any hesitation.

The gift he wanted to buy for Eri was only a little bit of money short.

But to keep the supermarket running smoothly, Toji knew that he couldn't do it alone.

Receiving goods, placing goods, hygiene issues, cashiers, maintenance personnel...

The difficulties one by one made Toji originally want to give up a little, but after seeing Zenin Kiyoshi and others chatting in the yard, a plan came to his mind.

The daily turnover of the store is about 800,000 yen. If one-tenth is given to him, that is 80,000 yen. And for about eight people to eat barbecue, it will at most not cost more than 30,000 yen. In this way...

After checking the accounts in his mind, Zenin Toji did not hesitate and directly coaxed and deceived everyone to this place.

After everyone arrived here, faced with Toji's rascally behavior, they could only reluctantly agree.

After all, that guy used both soft and hard tactics, and thinking that they would indeed eat barbecue at night, everyone suppressed their dissatisfaction and came to help this bastard Toji.
