Maki told him that they were attacked by four members of the clan who they hadhad gotten in trouble with a few days ago.
Four trained adult men with cursed energy ruthlessly beat up two 9-year-old girls in the middle of the night over some random skirmish?
"N-Naoya-sama, please wait—"wait—"
Before he could continue,continue, a punch landed straight on his face, crushing it inwards.
"Just die."
Naoya beheaded the other man with a swing of his spear.
*Thud*
His body fell powerlessly to the floor,floor, but Naoya felt no satisfaction.
After all, these guys were just simple,simple, discardable pawns.
The real culprit was someone else.
With a spear in hand, Naoya broke the door and looked inside.
"Quite a lineup you have gathered here, Uncle Ogi...."
He placed the spear on his shoulder, looking at the old fossil standing behind several Zenin Clan members.Zenin Clan members.
"Almost as if you expected me to come here...."
"You insolent brat."
Ogi pulled out his katana and continued in a stern voice while straight at him.
"You dared to kill members of the Zenin clan in cold blood. Even if you are the clan head's son and the user of the ancient technique, your actions will not go unpunished!"
Naoya tapped his finger on his spear as his face kept changing.
"So you...you... did all this to deal with me?"
His expression contorted as heavy curse energy started leaking out ofout of his body.
"You scum on earth, piece of living garbage that cannot even be recycled..."
"If you want to kill me, then come straight for me. Why? Why hurt two weak kids who are just trying to live by doing their best!?"
Ogi remained calm, only moving his head, gesturing the men to attack.
Naoya's words meant nothing to him, as he knew what he did was correct.
As the men with swordsswords rushed straight at him, a shadow suddenly appeared on the floor, and countless rabbits rushed out.
"He's using his technique!"
"There are so many of them!"
While they were blocked by the shikigami rabbits, a concise spear moved like a silent scythe, cutting through their heads and piercing through their bodies.
In just a few breaths, Naoya's spear had killed half of the men.
And just as his spear was about to take the next life, an intense heat suddenly approached from the front.
*Boom*
An explosion happened as fire spread everywhere, burning away the wooden house in flames.
The men didn't even have time to scream before they were cut open and burned to a crisp under the fire.
Ogi Zenin calmly stepped out of the destroyed house with a burning sword in hand, looking at the black shadow on the ground.
From the shadow, Naoya's figure slowly came out, his entire right arm covered in burn marks.
Seeing that Naoya was injured, Ogi was about to launch another attack when he suddenly stopped.
Because under his very eyes, Naoya's burn healed at a rapid speed, becoming as good as new, almost instantly.
Clenching his palm, Naoya looked at the stiff-looking Ogi.
'There are a lot of my abilities that I choose to hide.... exactly for a day like this.'
As he thought in his mind, a huge elephant shikigami appeared beside him, pointing its trunk at Ogi.
Ogi Zenin activated his technique, covering his sword in burning flames, sending a slash straight towards Naoya.
At the same time, a stream of water rushed out of the elephant's nose, colliding straight with the burning sword, making steam appear on impact.
But still Ogi's technique was stronger, as it overpowered the elephant's attack and rushed towards Naoya.
With a quick speed, he dodged the attack, then made a hand sign, making large Shikigami wings appear behind him.
*Flap*
Taking to the skies at an incredible speed, a ball of electricity started forming between his wings.
Ogi saw the scene and moved his leg, ready to rush inside the next house to make it difficult for Naoya to hit.
But before he could, a shadow appeared on his path, and a tiger shikigami, the size of an elephant, rushed out.
*Roar*
It let out a terrifying roar and lunged straight at Ogi with its long, sharp claws.
*Bam*
Ogi jumped back and dodged the attack while moving his burning katana to strike.
But suddenly a stream of water crashed at him from the side, sending him crashing back on the ground.
Fighting multiple Shikigami from the Ten Shadow Technique was clearly out of his reach.
Ogi coughed, letting the water out of his mouth, and then raised his head and saw a crackling ball of lightning has formed between Naoya's wings.
With an indifferent look on his face, Naoya sent the electro ball straight towards the old bastard, ready to fry him up.
Ogi Zenin also waved his burning sword to intercept the attack.
But just as electricity and flames were about to collide.
The ground between them lifted up, intercepting both of the attacks.
*Crackle*
Terrifying lightning and flame danced across the raised ground before cracking it up into rubble.
With a cold look inin his eyes, Naoya frowned and turned his head towards the intruders.
"Are you on his side?"
There stood Chojuro, Jinchi, and Ranta Zenin.
"Naoya-san! Ogi-san! Both of you, please calm down!" Ranta said in a loud voice, trying to soothe the situation.
Naoya ignored him as another electro ball formed between his wings.
"Naoya-san!"
Ranta stared at Naoya and used his technique.
Instantly, an extremely strong restrictive force surrounded Naoya, making him fall to the ground.
But before he could crash, a shadow enveloped him, and a large number of rabbits rushed out from it, blocking Ranta's vision.
"What?!"
Freed from the constraint, Naoya jumped out of the shadow and instantly moved his hand, summoning all of his contracted shikigami.
Divine Dogs.
Toad.
Great Serpent.
Piercing Ox.
Along with Max Elephant, Tiger Funeral, and Rabbit Escape.
Jinchi Zenin crossed his arms and stood in silence.
A solemn look appeared on Chojuro's and Ranta's faces.
Even Ogi Zenin tightly clenched his sword, looking at the shikigami before him.
He had made a major miscalculation.
Due to Naoya's age, he had assumed that no matter how legendary his technique was, in a battle he would definitely come out on top.
Alas, it seemed he was greatly mistaken.
This kid was already stronger than him, a Special Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer.
What sort of nonsense was this?!
Ogi Zenin burned with jealousy.
He and Naobito were equal in strength! So how come their descendants were so different?!
As the atmosphere grew heavier, Naoya slightly lowered his eyelids.
He wasn't fully confident in beating all of them with just the Ten Shadows Technique.
He wanted to keep the majority of his strength hidden to deal with much greater threats in the future, like Kenjaku and Sukuna.
A lack of information in a battle can completely change the outcome.
Like how Kenjaku pulled out his gravity and anti-gravity techniques from nowhere.
Revealing it now seemed like a waste.
Not to mention, killing them here would make the higher-ups declare him a wanted criminal, which was an inconvenience in itself.
So much trouble, just to kill a piece of garbage.
Just as he was contemplating, another person arrived at the battlefield.
Naobito Zenin.
'Finally showing yourself, old man.'
Naoya wasn't surprised by his appearance; it would have been weird for him not to arrive sooner.
"Clan Head!"
Naobito looked at the three, then turned to look at Ogi and Naoya.
"Both of you, calm down. You're damaging the clan's property."
His gaze lingered on Naoya as he continued.
"Continuing this fight, no matter the outcome, will damage the Zenin clan's interests. Not to mention, you will become a wanted criminal..."
"I was just defending myself, Clan Head! It was your son who invaded my place and tried to kill me!" Ogi said without missing a beat.
"We are all Zenin here, you piece of garbage. Don't think your stupid lie is fooling anyone," Naoya said in a cold tone.
"You insolent brat!..."
As they were arguing, Naobito suddenly opened his mouth and said in a calm tone,
"Both of you, if you don't stop now, then I will be forced to take action."
If Naobito joined in, then Naoya really didn't have confidence in killing Ogi, even with Projection Sorcery.
If only he had a domain...
But even with a domain, the aftermath was the real problem.
The flames on Ogi's sword disappeared as he sheathed it.
Naoya released a breath, then floated down to the ground and released his technique as well.
Naobito calmly waved his hand and dismissed everyone.
After giving Ogi Zenin one last look, Naoya turned around and left the place.
Returning to his residence, Naoya saw the healed Mai and Maki, and his eyes softened.
Lightly patting their heads, he said,
"You two had me worried."
"Sorry, Brother Naoya..."
"Sorry..."
"There's no need to apologize. It wasn't your fault."
Naoya turned to Shoko and gave her a nod.
"Thank you for arriving so quickly."
"You worried too much. Your shikigami here were more than enough to heal them," Shoko said while letting out a tired yawn.
"I can prepare a room for you to rest."
"Nah, I want to go back home."
"Alright. These men will send you back, and I will transfer the money to your account tomorrow."
"Oh? I'm getting paid? Thank you!"
After Shoko left, Naoya said to Kiyo,
"Prepare the room next door. They will sleep there tonight."
"Yes, Naoya-sama."
After Kiyo left, Naoya looked at the silent sisters.
"What's wrong?"
Mai looked at him, then asked with hesitation,
"Brother Naoya, did you kill Father?..."
"Unfortunately, I couldn't."
Mai nodded her head, appearing calm.
After the room was prepared, Naoya told them to go rest and directed his guards to protect their room.
With his sleep ruined, Naoya picked up his notebook and started studying barriers again.
