Tokyo School had Fushiguro Megumi, who could summon Divine Dogs to track Cursed Spirits by scent, giving them an inherent advantage over Kyoto Jujutsu High. Therefore, if Kyoto Jujutsu High wanted to win the exchange event, they had to either find the Semi-Grade 1 Cursed Spirit first or locate the Tokyo School team to disrupt their scoring!
Relying on her Tool Manipulation, Momo Nishimiya flew through the air on a broomstick, searching for the Tokyo School team, while the others from Kyoto Jujutsu High followed below.
Aside from the individuals who appeared in the original plot, Kyoto Jujutsu High had added one extra Jujutsu Sorcerer to offset the difference in numbers caused by Kagura Shin. He looked somewhat similar to Kamo Noritoshi, though he was thinner and carried a giant sack on his back, the contents of which were unknown.
Suddenly, Momo Nishimiya called out from the air, "Found them! Everyone, hurry and follow me!"
The Kyoto Jujutsu High team immediately entered combat mode and accelerated toward the Tokyo School's position.
...
Fushiguro Megumi had the White Divine Dog track the scent of Cursed Spirits, while the Black Divine Dog kept watch. Suddenly, the Black Divine Dog's fur stood on end, and it began to bark loudly. The Tokyo School team immediately entered combat mode, staring vigilantly at the surrounding forest.
"Whoosh!" Everyone heard a sound piercing the air. A blood-stained arrow flew out of the forest, turning at a right angle at high speed toward Kagura Shin. Maki immediately swung her naginata, splitting the arrow in two.
The Kyoto Jujutsu High team surrounded the Tokyo School group from all sides.
"Clap, clap, clap..." Following the sound of Aoi Todo clapping his hands, the scenery before the Tokyo School students instantly changed. They had swapped positions with some of the Kyoto Jujutsu High students, and their original defensive formation was shattered.
The Kyoto Jujutsu High side had clearly coordinated their tactics in advance. Before the Tokyo School students could even steady themselves, the attacks from Kyoto Jujutsu High rained down upon them.
In the monitoring room, Satoru Gojo clapped his hands in admiration, saying, "They arranged their positions in advance and launched attacks in the discussed directions before Todo even clapped? Oh my, they've seized the initiative..."
Fortunately, the Tokyo School students were quite strong. Aside from Itadori Yuji, who was matched against Aoi Todo, everyone else easily parried the attacks.
Itadori Yuji was sent stumbling by a punch from Aoi Todo, sliding two or three meters across the ground before stopping. He asked in confusion, "Shouldn't opponents be matched by strength? Why is it me and not Shin facing this big guy!"
Kagura Shin explained, "Because they see you as a soft target. Their plan is likely to start with one-on-one matchups, then have Aoi Todo quickly eliminate the weakest among us to create a numerical advantage."
"So they think I'm the weakest? I've really been underestimated!"
The opponent's plan was quite good, but their intelligence was wrong; Itadori was not that weak, so their initial advantage was completely squandered!
Kagura Shin looked at the unfamiliar face closest to him, who was carrying a giant sack. "You look a bit like Kamo Noritoshi. Are you from the Kamo Family?"
"Kamo Rin, an illegitimate child of the Kamo Family..." He spat out the words "illegitimate child" through gritted teeth. Kagura Shin understood the situation; he was likely the son who hadn't inherited the family's Cursed Technique. But since Kamo Noritoshi was publicly declared the heir, he could only refer to himself as an illegitimate child.
"Whoosh..." Several sheets of pristine white paper flew out from the sack behind him and floated in the air, instantly folding into the shape of shuriken, which spun at high speed as they flew toward Kagura Shin.
[Origami Manipulation: Lesser Cleave!]
Kagura Shin flipped lightly to dodge. The paper shuriken embedded themselves directly into the trees behind him; they seemed quite powerful.
[Origami Manipulation: White Bind]
The shuriken stuck in the trees instantly scattered into paper scraps, which quickly rushed to stick onto Kagura Shin. Kagura Shin immediately pulled out a Fire Charge and threw it at them.
"Boom!" The paper scraps were instantly ignited, turning into ash that scattered in the air, rendering them useless.
Kagura Shin raised his hand and launched a series of ignited TNT blocks toward Kamo Rin.
[Origami Manipulation: White Shield!]
A large amount of cursed paper formed a hemispherical object, encasing him inside. After the roar of the TNT explosion, the outer layers of the cursed paper hemisphere were blasted into dust, but the interior remained intact.
[Huh? This Cursed Technique seems quite strong. What a pity, though, to be born into the Kamo Family. And even more unfortunate that this generation has Kamo Noritoshi, who inherited the family's Cursed Technique...]
That's just how The Big Three Families are; they value family Cursed Techniques and heritage above all else. If no one in a generation inherits the family technique, it's one thing, but as long as there is one successor, everyone else of the same generation becomes mere background decoration.
Even if someone in the family awakens a Cursed Technique that surpasses the family's, they still cannot compare to that so-called heritage.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!" The cursed paper sphere suddenly fired dozens of sheets of cursed paper in all directions, each imbued with an excessive amount of Cursed Energy.
"Boom, boom, boom..." A series of explosions rang out. Kagura Shin had to retreat a few steps to avoid the brunt of the attack. Kamo Rin's move was merely to prevent Kagura Shin from camping and ambushing him the moment he left his defensive position.
To be honest, Kagura Shin didn't want to fight Kamo Rin seriously at first; after all, every one of his blocks was something he had painstakingly accumulated using his own Cursed Energy. It felt like a waste to use them against his own people, but Kamo Rin seemed quite serious, which forced Kagura Shin to show him some respect.
With a mere thought, he donned his fully enchanted netherite armor set, and an enchanted trident and shield appeared in his hands. He also consumed Strength and Speed potions.
"Let's finish this quickly!"
