Chapter 141 - Rewriting the Jujutsu World

"Jujutsu Sorcerers are trash."

Nanami pushed up his glasses expressionlessly.

No one could understand his current mood.

He had made up his mind to quit his corporate slave job, only for his first job back in the Jujutsu World to be dealing with a junior.

"Lynn, calm down."

In front of the main gate of the warehouse, Yaga and Nanami stood side by side, confronting the black-haired youth.

"Although I don't know what you've been through, a large number of dangerous items are stored in the controlled warehouse."

"Before obtaining permission from those big shots upstairs, even a Special Grade Sorcerer cannot enter."

"I know, that's why I decided to just go straight in."

Lynn had one hand in his pocket as his gaze swept across the surroundings.

Having stayed at Jujutsu High for over ten days, he had some impression of most people in this school.

Aside from Principal Yaga and Nanami, who were Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerers, there were currently four other Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerers and thirteen Grade 2 Jujutsu Sorcerers near the warehouse.

A total of nineteen Jujutsu Sorcerers; this lineup could easily deal with most Special Grade Cursed Spirits if deployed.

However, ...

"Ten seconds left."

Golden lightning flickered on his body as Lynn walked toward the warehouse ahead, step by step.

"Make way, or let me send you to the hospital to enjoy a vacation; choose for yourselves."

"Principal, what should we do?"

Nanami glanced to the side.

"...I'll test him first."

Yaga took out a doll from his coat.

As cursed energy was injected, the doll's size instantly expanded, turning into a several-meter-tall black hyena that pounced toward Lynn.

But in the next instant, with a bang, the hyena was sent back even faster than it came, creating a gust of wind that made Yaga's hair flutter.

"Principal, don't bring out toys like this."

Lynn walked past Principal Yaga: "I only used thirty percent of my strength just now; you should be able to fix it after you retrieve it."

Yaga: "..."

Raising his hand to signal the surrounding guards to lower their weapons, Yaga sighed in his heart.

The black dog was no toy.

It was a specialized Cursed Corpse he made using energy-absorbing materials, specifically designed to deal with close-combat Jujutsu Sorcerers.

To be able to take it out in one hit, Lynn's physical fitness could only be described as monstrous; it was probably no worse than Fushiguro Toji's used to be.

If they continued fighting, they might not be able to settle it with just a hospital stay.

"Nanami, I'll go inside to see what Lynn wants to do. You go contact Gojo and have him come back."

"No need for that trouble, I'm already back."

A voice came from not far away.

Yaga was stunned for a moment and suddenly turned his head.

"Good afternoon, everyone."

Gojo waved to everyone leisurely and handed the bag in his hand to Yaga.

"Here, these are souvenirs I bought in Osaka."

"Stop playing around, this isn't the time for jokes. Come with me to the warehouse to stop Lynn."

He didn't ask why Gojo was here.

Yaga urged the other and took the lead toward the warehouse in the back.

But at the same time, a surging wave of cursed energy rose from within the warehouse, making Yaga's body feel heavy.

"How is that possible! So fast?!"

A look of shock appeared on Yaga's face.

To protect the items from being stolen, a large number of Barriers and counter-techniques were set up in the warehouse.

Even if Lynn was very strong, this was too fast; it hadn't even been ten seconds since he entered.

Crisp footsteps sounded, and Lynn, who had just entered the warehouse, reappeared before everyone.

Compared to a minute ago, the cursed energy fluctuations on him had multiplied several times, and his dangerous aura had risen sharply.

"Good afternoon, Gojo-sensei."

As if nothing had happened, Lynn leisurely walked up to Gojo.

"I heard you went to Osaka on a mission. Is this a souvenir for me?"

"Yeah, are you touched?"

"I'm definitely 'moved'."

Lynn took the souvenir, thought for a moment, and asked, "Do you know where the higher-ups of the Jujutsu world are?"

"I do, but what are you going to do?"

"Kill the people who screwed me over."

"Hmm... just as I thought."

Gojo rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

"While I highly support your proposal, doing so would cause a huge impact."

"Besides, there are many higher-ups in the Jujutsu World. If you act indiscriminately, you might accidentally hurt the good ones."

"Don't worry, that won't happen."

Lynn held up a finger: "There's one thing I haven't told you; I have the power to help people evolve."

Gojo: "Evolve?"

Lynn: "You can understand it as: anyone who integrates my blood will have their physical fitness greatly improved, gain the healing ability of limb regeneration, and have a certain probability of awakening a Cursed Technique."

Gojo: "?"

What kind of messy ability is that?

Even the well-traveled Gojo couldn't help but be stunned after hearing Lynn's introduction.

As for Yaga and the others behind him, their eyes widened as if their worldview was collapsing.

Yaga: "Wait! If everything you said is true, doesn't that mean you have the ability to mass-produce Jujutsu Sorcerers!"

"Exactly. So, there's no need to worry about the chaos after the deaths of the higher-ups; I will replace them and create a new order."

Lynn looked at Gojo: "As for what you just said about accidentally hurting good people, those who integrate my blood will be under my control, and I can freely peer into their memories."

"Peering into memories is a bit inhumane, isn't it?"

"Then just round them all up and extract confessions under torture. Anyway, nine out of ten of those old fogies have problems, and the remaining one chose to cooperate with Cursed Spirit to trap and kill me."

"That works."

A thoughtful look appeared on Gojo's face.

Peering into memories is crossing the line, but extracting confessions under torture is fine.

With the Six Eyes, his observation was extremely detailed; it was hard for anyone to lie in front of him.

"Hey! Gojo, what are you doing!"

Yaga finally realized the seriousness of the situation.

"Don't follow Lynn's lead and act recklessly! If the higher-ups of the Jujutsu world are gone..."

"It won't have any impact."

Lynn interrupted with a firm tone.

"Let me tell you one more thing: I have the ability to kill Cursed Spirit and absorb them to become stronger."

"In order to become stronger, I will stand on the side of the Jujutsu Sorcerers and kill all Cursed Spirit without reservation."

"Where did you get so many abilities!"

Yaga was starting to lose it.

Everyone else develops different ways to use a single Cursed Technique, so why is it different for you?

"I see. This is why you could withstand Sukuna's Finger."

Gojo managed to come up with some reasons in his head, a thoughtful look appearing on his face.

The ability to mass-produce Jujutsu Sorcerers, and the ability to continuously grow stronger by absorbing Cursed Spirit.

If everything Lynn said was true, then this was indeed a good time to clean out the higher-ups of the Jujutsu world and reshape the order.

But the question was... is Lynn trustworthy?

With such dangerous abilities, would he become a threat in the future?

No! That wasn't the key point!

Halfway through his thoughts, Gojo suddenly realized something else: why would Lynn expose his own abilities?

Having known him for so many days, he knew very well that Lynn was a smart person who wouldn't put himself in danger.

Since the other party chose to expose his abilities at this point in time, it could only mean that Lynn had enough confidence.

The confidence to remain unscathed even if he, the strongest Jujutsu Sorcerer, stood on the opposite side.

"Interesting."

The corners of Gojo's mouth slowly curled up.

"Lynn, interested in having a fight with me?"

"Not interested."

"If you win, I can assist you in cleaning up the higher-ups of the Jujutsu world."

"If I win, I won't need your promise. I'll do whatever I want."

"..."

Gojo's smile vanished.

It seemed that was indeed the case.

According to Ijichi's report, Lynn's strength had far exceeded Okkotsu Yuta's.

And after defeating Hanami, he consumed four more Sukuna's Finger to strengthen himself.

Including the six in the controlled warehouse, this meant Lynn had consumed a total of ten Sukuna's Finger after the battle.

His original strength was already strong enough, and with the boost from ten Sukuna's Finger, the outcome was predictable.

Now, in the entire Jujutsu World, perhaps only Gojo himself could exchange a few blows with Lynn.

If he lost, then Lynn would be an invincible existence, and indeed wouldn't need any promises.

"I'm not interested in fighting you; revealing my abilities was just to prove my confidence."

Lynn's voice rang out again: "In the end, do the higher-ups who cooperate with Cursed Spirit and Curse Users to harm Jujutsu Sorcerers really need to exist?"

"If I hadn't acted this time, even Fushiguro Megumi, Itadori Yuji, and Nobara Kugisaki would have been in grave danger, not to mention the ordinary people in the supermarket; casualties would have been inevitable."

"How can the Jujutsu World be improved while being associated with these vermin?"

"..."

The scene fell into silence.

After hearing Lynn's words, not to mention Gojo, even the originally unaware Yaga realized the truth.

As for Nanami next to them, he directly cursed in his heart, 'Jujutsu Sorcerers are shit.'

Fighting dangerous Cursed Spirit was one thing, but being backstabbed and harmed by one's own people was intolerable for anyone.

"Fine, I'm convinced by you."

After a while, Gojo broke the silence.

He raised his hand and took off his blindfold, his shimmering pale blue eyes meeting Lynn's gaze.

"I can take you to the Jujutsu Sorcerer higher-ups. But in exchange, I need to be present to watch when you interrogate them."

"What if the higher-ups being interrogated are problematic?"

"Kill them."

"I mean issues other than cooperating with Cursed Spirit and Curse Users."

"Depends on the situation; if the issues are serious, kill them."

"Then I have no more questions."

Lynn raised his right hand: "Shall we go?"

Gojo shook it: "Let's go."

As the words fell, the two figures disappeared from the spot, heading toward where the Jujutsu Sorcerer higher-ups were located.

After staring at where the two had been standing for a moment, Nanami pushed up his glasses.

"Principal Yaga, what's the plan now?"

"Let's wait for news."

Yaga sighed.

Even Gojo had gone over to Lynn's side; what else could he say?

After repairing the barrier in front of the warehouse, Yaga went back to the principal's office and sat down.

Three hours later, news came from Gojo.

The Jujutsu Sorcerer higher-ups were completely wiped out.
