Tengen had gathered everyone they trusted.
Gojo, Yuta, Ryu, Yuki, Choso, Hakari, Kirara, Maki, Mai, Todo, Yuji, Shoko, Hana, and Megumi.
They stood inside one of the underground chambers near Tengen's core barrier. The room was quiet. Very quiet.
Everyone looked confused.
They had been told it was an emergency meeting, but no one had explained why.
Some leaned against pillars. Others sat on the steps surrounding the chamber. Gojo stood casually with his hands in his pockets, staring at Ryu, while Ryu smoked quietly near the wall.
Gojo was glaring at Ryu and Shoko, as Ryu, Shoko, and Yuta were sharing a cigarette together
Eventually, every gaze turned toward me.
Even Megumi and Yuji didn't know the exact details of what I was about to say.
I took a breath.
Now that everyone was here… there was no point delaying it.
"Since everyone is here," I said slowly, "I'll explain the situation we're dealing with."
The room fell completely silent.
"Megumi's sister, Tsumiki Fushiguro… was one of the people marked by Kenjaku during the preparation for the Culling Games."
Megumi's shoulders stiffened immediately.
"She is a vessel."
A ripple of tension spread across the room.
"But… she already lost control of her body."
I continued quietly.
"The ancient sorcerer inside her is currently controlling her."
Megumi looked like someone had just pulled the ground from beneath his feet. His hands clenched at his sides, and he stared at the floor, barely holding himself together.
"This sorcerer's name is Yorozu."
The moment I said the name, Tengen's expression changed.
Recognition. Understanding.
Mai blinked in surprise.
"Yorozu?" she muttered.
"Yes," I nodded. "Her cursed technique is the same as yours, Mai-san."
Mai's eyes widened slightly.
"So that's why… I was called as well," she murmured.
I continued.
"And we need to save Tsumiki."
I looked around the room.
"She currently believes we don't know who she truly is."
Yuki crossed her arms thoughtfully.
"So she's pretending to still be Tsumiki?"
"Yes."
I nodded.
"Yorozu has been acting like Tsumiki to avoid drawing attention. She's hiding while waiting for the right opportunity."
Gojo tilted his head.
"And what opportunity would that be?"
I answered immediately.
"She wants Sukuna."
The room went still.
"She's obsessed with him. She wants to marry him… and tame him."
Todo let out a loud laugh.
"HAHA! What a ridiculous woman!"
But no one else laughed.
"So," I finished calmly, "she's our natural enemy."
Gojo watched me carefully.
Then I turned toward him.
"Gojo-sensei."
I had already accepted him as my teacher. Earlier that morning, he had even given me a Jujutsu High uniform, which still felt surreal.
The clothes I was wearing at the moment were my very own Jujutsu High Uniform.
I wore a knee-high skirt, my belly was open, but I was wearing a dress on top, I also had a heeled boot.
"I have a plan to save Megumi's sister."
Gojo raised an eyebrow.
"But," I admitted, "it's a bit… brute force."
Gojo stared at me for a moment.
Then he smiled.
"Tell me."
I nodded.
"You will use your domain on Yorozu and stun her."
Everyone in the room immediately understood what that meant.
Gojo's Unlimited Void.
If it landed, Yorozu wouldn't even be able to think.
"After that," I continued, "everyone who can attack the soul will approach her and begin attacking the barrier between Yorozu and Tsumiki."
Yuji straightened. Yuki nodded slowly. Yuta looked thoughtful.
"We'll also keep healing her body while we do it," I said.
"So, Yuta, Shoko, and I will stay nearby. As the others damage the soul barrier, we will constantly repair Tsumiki's body with reverse cursed technique so she survives the process."
Shoko exhaled slowly.
"That's… extremely delicate work."
"Yes." I nodded.
"But if we keep damaging the barrier between their souls… eventually it will break."
"And when it breaks," Yuki finished quietly.
"Yorozu dies, Tsumiki comes back."
I nodded.
"That's the idea."
The room stayed quiet for several seconds.
Then Gojo spoke.
"…Not bad."
Yuki rubbed her chin.
"The biggest risk is the timing. If Yorozu recovers too early, she could kill someone instantly."
Ryu flicked his cigarette away.
"So we just kill her faster than she wakes up."
Yuta shook his head.
"No. If we damage Tsumiki's body too much before Shoko heals it, she could die."
Shoko sighed. "Great. No pressure."
Tengen finally spoke.
"The barrier between the souls will not be simple to break. You must strike precisely."
Yuta nodded.
"I can do that. So let's organize this."
Gojo looked around the room. He was grinning at how his students were working.
The next hour was spent refining the plan.
Positions. Timing. Contingencies.
Who would move first?
Who would retreat if things went wrong?
Eventually, everything became clear.
Only a few people among us could directly perceive the soul.
Gojo. Yuta. Yuji. Yuki.
They would focus on destroying the barrier between Yorozu and Tsumiki.
The healers would stay behind them.
Me. Shoko.
Yuta again — since he could both heal the body and damage the soul precisely.
The rest would remain behind to protect Tengen.
Once everything was finalized, we moved immediately.
Megumi led us through the city.
Night had already fallen over Tokyo.
We hid in the shadows while Megumi searched.
He called her name several times.
"Tsumiki!"
Eventually—
She appeared.
Yorozu walked down the street slowly. Her expression looked irritated, but the moment she saw Megumi, she forced a gentle smile.
"Megumi." Her voice was soft.
"I was just taking a walk. Did you miss me?"
Megumi's eyes turned cold.
"I know who you are."
Her smile froze.
"You're not Tsumiki."
His voice was sharp.
"Your name is Yorozu."
For a moment, she looked genuinely surprised.
Then she laughed.
"Oh?" Her expression changed completely.
"So you figured it out."
She tilted her head.
"How unfortunate."
"Oh… how long I've been searching for Sukuna-sama…"
"I couldn't find him today either..." she sighed loudly
Her eyes gleamed with obsession.
"And I couldn't find him anywhere."
Her gaze turned dangerous.
"It's pretty stupid for you to come here alone, Megumi—chan."
She emphasized the chan mockingly.
Megumi didn't flinch.
"Who told you I was alone?"
For the first time, Megumi smiled.
"I'll kill you for messing with my sister."
Yorozu moved instantly—
But before she could reach him—
Gojo appeared behind Megumi.
"Oh?" Gojo said casually.
"So you're Yorozu."
Her attack hit infinity and stopped instantly.
Then she saw Gojo raise his hand.
Her pupils shrank.
Gojo grabbed Megumi's shoulder and extended two fingers.
"Domain Expansion."
Yorozu reacted instantly.
"Domain Expansion."
"Unlimited Void."
"Three Layers of Affliction."
Both domains exploded outward.
The air warped.
Reality twisted.
For three seconds, the domains clashed violently.
Then Yorozu's domain was overwhelmed
Gojo's Unlimited Void covered the entire area.
Incomplete Information. Infinite knowledge. Endless overload.
Yorozu froze completely.
Gojo held the domain for nearly a full minute to ensure the stun would last.
Then he released it. Yorozu stood motionless.
Eyes empty. Mind broken.
That was our signal.
We stepped forward.
I raised my hands and created massive chains from my cursed technique.
They shot forward and wrapped around her body.
Arms. Legs. Torso.
They slammed her to the ground.
Only her head and chest remained exposed.
Just in case she recovered suddenly.
Shoko wasn't a fighter. She needed protection.
Then Gojo, Yuji, Yuta, and Yuki walked forward.
I pointed at Yorozu and yelled.
"You mess with one of us…"
"You mess with all of us!"
Chains tightened around her.
"Time to give this bitch a beating!"
Behind me, Megumi hadn't moved.
I turned. He was staring at me.
Tears were running down his face silently.
I walked over.
"Megumi… are you alright?"
He wiped his face quickly.
"I… yes… Kita-san."
His voice trembled.
"Thank you."
He looked at me like he didn't know what to say.
"Truly… thank you for everything you've done."
I smiled softly.
"Didn't I tell you?"
I stepped closer.
"I'd do anything for you."
His breath caught.
"Because you're worth it."
Kita Aura exploded like sunlight.
Megumi shut his eyes immediately, overwhelmed.
Behind us—
The others began tearing into Yorozu's soul.
The real beating had begun.
I looked at Megumi for a little longer before turning back.
I had a job that required me to heal Tsumiki's body.
