Chapter 67 - The Culling Game

"Then let me introduce the rules of the game."

"1. Players must pledge to join the game within any Barrier within 19 days of awakening."

"2. Violating rule 1 will result in the removal of the Cursed Technique."

"3. Non-players who enter a Barrier will be considered players who have pledged to participate."

"4. Players earn points by taking the lives of other players."

"5. Points refer to the value assigned to each player by the game master. In principle, Jujutsu Sorcerers are worth 5 points, and non-sorcerers are worth 1 point."

"6. Players can negotiate with the game master to add a rule by consuming 100 points, excluding the points assigned to themselves."

"7. As long as it does not affect the continuation of the Culling Game, the added rule must be approved."

"8. If there is no change in points within 19 days of participating or earning points, the Cursed Technique will be removed."

"9. Anyone covered by the prioritized Barrier can leave the Barrier freely after the game officially begins and will no longer be affected by the eight rules above."

"10. People within the prioritized Barrier who wish to participate in the game must take a pledge. After pledging, they will be bound by the eight rules above, but they will receive two points every day."

"By the way, the game doesn't officially start until three days from now, so you just need to stay inside the Barrier and behave for three days."

In other words, is it impossible for anyone currently inside this Barrier to have their Cursed Technique removed for not killing anyone?

But this doomsday-like scene doesn't look like everyone is just behaving and doing their own thing while waiting to leave freely.

Kenjaku noticed Shin looking at the raging fire and broken walls ahead, and he couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahaha, this is humanity. By the way, I only had Mahito modify one hundred humans who can use Cursed Techniques and released them. And to protect those ordinary people who were not given Cursed Techniques, I specifically had the Cursed Spirits distribute firearms to every household for them to use for self-defense. Hahahaha..."

"Look at them. In the first twelve hours, although everyone was afraid, they were still living normally, waiting for the game to start so they could leave this Barrier. But a small number of people, whether out of hatred or desire, fired the first shot, and the situation became uncontrollable. After a while, it turned into what you see now."

After saying this, Kenjaku seemed to have left. He did not speak through the insect again.

Shin looked toward the red-burned sky in the distance and slowly walked into the ruins.

The Culling Game is such a cruel game. Through the sixth and seventh rules, it amplifies the desires in people's hearts infinitely, and Kenjaku even provides them with the power and opportunity to satisfy those desires.

Perhaps some people won't pick up the weapons Kenjaku provided to satisfy their selfish desires, but they will still worry about their own lives. They will also be afraid that the people around them might pull out a gun at any moment and shoot them. Under this high pressure, everyone in the city is now in danger.

You might just be passing by them, but they are already so nervous that there's no telling what they might do.

Kenjaku, having dealt with Shin, was busy making preparations inside Shibuya Station along with Sukuna, Hanami, Dagon, and Mahito.

"Remember, do not cause too many casualties, otherwise Gojo might recklessly expand his Domain and solve everything with violence. After all, Gojo is not exactly a completely benevolent person."

"The goal this time is only one: to seal Gojo. Other things are unimportant, do not do anything unnecessary."

As Kenjaku raised his finger and chanted the incantation, several layers of Curtains were quickly set up inside and outside Shibuya Station.

Kenjaku couldn't wait until Halloween, the day with the highest foot traffic in the station, but he still specifically chose the morning rush hour, so there were quite a few people in the station.

Moreover, the Curtain he cast was the type that allowed ordinary people to enter but not leave, so the number of people in the station would only continue to grow.

The unregistered Curtain at Shibuya Station was quickly discovered and reported by the Window, and by the time the relevant personnel from the Jujutsu World arrived outside the Curtain, they could clearly hear the shouting from inside.

"Get Gojo Satoru to come and save me!"

"Quickly let Gojo Satoru come in alone! Only he can come in, otherwise we will all be slaughtered!"

"Who knows Gojo Satoru? Get him to come in and save us!"

After the news reached Satoru's ears, before the Higher-Ups had even issued any instructions, he had already arrived outside Shibuya Station.

"Hmph, is this the thing Shin mentioned that was specifically targeted at me? It just so happens that I also want to see who that disgusting guy occupying Suguru's body really is. Let me test if the Prison Realm can actually seal me."

After notifying the Higher-Ups, Satoru stepped into the Curtain alone and walked into Shibuya Station.
