Jujutsu Kaisen: Nozomi no Sora
Chapter 42 Battle of the Wilderness
The moment Su Nuo finished speaking, his figure vanished.
The air exploded in a circle of milky white shockwave, and the next second, he appeared directly in front of Gojo Satoru like a ghost.
Two fists bearing the title of "strongest" collided with a deafening roar—
boom!!!
The explosion tore through the night sky, and the shockwave spread wildly in a ring. Trees as thick as bowls were uprooted, and soil churned outward like waves. Further away, lampposts collapsed with a deafening metallic groan.
"You're still fighting me with that face on your face?" Gojo Satoru landed lightly on the ground, a mocking smile on his lips, a hint of cold contempt in his azure eyes. "Are you trying to get me to go easy on you?"
He tilted his head.
"Unfortunately—it's precisely because it's Megumi that I can beat her up without restraint!"
So, I'm going to kill you first, and then I'll think about Hui's matter!
Before the words were even finished, the fist, carrying immense magical power, tore through the air and slammed into Su Nuo's face like a cannonball!
Su Nu crossed his arms to block, and the moment his fists collided, the ground within a few meters beneath his feet collapsed with a deafening roar, and cracks spread wildly in all directions like a spider web.
However, Su Nuo's body did not move at all. The fist force, which was enough to shatter mountains, was transmitted through his arm bones to his whole body. He grinned and revealed a ferocious smile full of madness.
"this one?"
But the words had barely left his lips.
Gojo Satoru casually raised his other hand, his index finger pointing towards Sukuna—
It was just a casual wave of the hand.
hum.
A terrifying gravitational force suddenly erupted.
The space itself seemed to be gripped by an invisible giant hand. Su Nuo's body instantly lost control and was thrown out like a kite with a broken string. He then smashed through the nearby bridge and fell into the river, creating a splash several meters high.
Gojo Satoru's smile widened, and he loosely clenched his right hand, further increasing the attraction of "Azure".
The river surged, and Su Nuo's body was forcibly pulled out of the water by that irresistible force, crashing into the riverbank like a meteorite.
Gojo Satoru continued to press him down with overwhelming force, dragging him wildly between the riverbank and the ground.
Gravel and steel bars flew behind Su Nuo, carving out a huge trench tens of meters long and half a meter deep, leaving scorched marks on the soil and rocks.
But the next second—
Countless slashes suddenly shattered the ground between the two, continuing their relentless attack on Gojo Satoru.
Gojo Satoru did not dodge, but simply stood quietly in place.
The slash grazed past him millimeters away, slicing the bridge, which had not yet collapsed, into pieces like tofu.
The reinforced concrete cross-section was eerily smooth. The massive bridge collapsed under the pull of gravity, crashing into the river and creating a cloud of water mist.
Yet Gojo Satoru remained unharmed, not even the hem of his clothes fluttering, as if those strikes powerful enough to cut through steel were merely a gentle evening breeze.
"Is this the 'No Limits' technique?" Su Nuo slowly stood up from the ravine, dusted himself off, and moved as leisurely as if he were tidying his clothes.
"Yeah," Gojou Satoru tilted his head, his tone flippantly irritating, "Is it proving difficult? Oh? Is Sukuna-sama about to surrender? Have you thought of your loser's speech yet?"
Su Nuo grinned, and a savage glint flashed in the eyes that belonged to Fu Hei Hui.
"Just a nobody, yet he dares to say such things!"
Immediately, Su Nuo flew close with a ferocious smile.
His footsteps crushed the pebbles beneath his feet, his figure leaving a trail of afterimages in the low air, and a punch imbued with cursed power slammed straight toward Gojo Satoru's face!
Gojo Satoru raised his hand to block.
But the next second, she noticed something was wrong—
Su Nuo's fist pierced through the theoretically impenetrable barrier and made direct, unimpeded contact with his palm.
The fist collided with the palm, producing a dull sound, the sound of flesh colliding directly with flesh.
Gojo Satoru's eyes narrowed slightly, and he instantly understood everything that was happening before his eyes.
"Does the domain extend...?"
Similar to the principle of "New Yin Flow - Simple Domain" - a layer of "empty domain" without any attached techniques is covered on the body like a thin film, allowing Gojo Satoru's "limitless" techniques to flow into this empty domain, thereby achieving a neutralizing effect.
The inviolable barrier was temporarily removed at this moment.
In this way, Sukuna immediately launched a relentless counterattack against Gojo Satoru.
The fists rained down like rain, each strike carrying the brutality and exquisite killing skills of the cursed king from a thousand years ago.
Invisible shockwaves burst forth in the air, causing the ground beneath their feet to crack layer by layer. Gravel floated and trembled under the pressure of the fists, before being pulverized.
After a fierce struggle, Gojo Satoru unleashed a powerful right punch. Sukuna crossed his arms to block, but he was still sent flying like a cannonball, crashing heavily into a distant bridge pier.
boom--!!
Huge radial dents were smashed into the surface of the bridge pier, and gravel flew in all directions like bullets, filling the air with dust.
In the distance, Gojo Satoru still wore a confident smile, his thumb gently pressing down on the tip of his index finger.
A red orb of light condensed at his fingertips, radiating an unstoppable aura of destruction.
"Spell Reversal—'Hah!'"
With a minimum output power approximately twice that of "Azure", "Hercules", carrying infinite repulsive force, transformed into a scarlet beam of light and shot towards Sukuna.
Before Su Nuo could prepare, the terrifying repulsive force pressed his body firmly into the concrete.
The bridge pier collapsed instantly, turning into countless fragments. Su Nuo was blasted into the depths of the riverbed, and the turbid river water was instantly displaced, revealing the dry riverbed.
Gojo Satoru brushed aside the dust that filled the air and strolled closer, his leather shoes making a crisp sound as they stepped on the gravel.
"Half an hour ago, the 'window' at the vocational high school reported that someone was shouting in the streets of Shibuya that they wanted to break the seal on Sukuna or something?" He squatted on the edge of the riverbed, looking down at the bottom of the pit. "Can you tell me what's going on now? You should know something about it, right?"
Su Nuo slowly emerged from the ruins.
His smile remained unchanged, his body covered in dust and dried blood, but the fighting spirit in his eyes burned even brighter, like two inextinguishable flames.
"Who knows?" He cracked his neck. "You brat, daring to be distracted during a fight, you're courting death!"
"Huh? What did you say?" Gojo Satoru pretended not to hear, cupping his hands to his ears and dramatically tilting his head. "Did Sukuna-sama go out for a walk without eating enough today? Speak louder, I can't hear you!"
"You brat!"
The next second, Su Nuo's mouth stretched to his ears, and his hands quickly formed a hand seal.
A terrifying surge of magical power erupted from his body in an instant.
"Domain Expansion—'The Demon-Slaying Chef'!"
Almost simultaneously, Gojo Satoru also raised his hand, forming his signature hand seal—
"The realm expands—'Boundless Emptiness'!"
The pitch-black void instantly enveloped the two of them.
At the same time, a shrine with a hideous maw slowly rose from among countless bones, emanating a nauseatingly thick, bloody stench.
In a battle of equal strength, the two men's sure-hit techniques repeatedly clashed, gradually wearing each other down.
If either side's technique fails, or if either side's domain collapses first, then the other side's sure-hit technique will instantly engulf the defeated side like a flood breaking through a dam!
Because of its lack of a closed shell, Sukuna's domain extends to even further beyond the outer shell of Gojo Satoru's domain.
The barrier is inherently extremely vulnerable when dealing with attacks from the outside.
Endless slashes cut through the barrier of the "Boundless Void" from the outside, and the next second—
Gojo Satoru's domain shell shattered with a crash!
Sukuna's ferocious smile grew even more insane as countless slashes hurtled towards Gojo Satoru, who had lost the protection of his domain.
The slashes were relentless, like a storm, instantly cutting Gojo Satoru's body until it was covered in blood.
The more ferocious the attacks became, the calmer Gojo Satoru's eyes grew.
Six azure eyes gleamed in the blood mist.
He continuously used the Reversal Technique to heal his wounds, his skin and muscles repeatedly tearing and healing. The newly formed granulation tissue wriggled and closed the moment the slash was removed, and the bleeding stopped before it could even drip.
The pain was completely suppressed by absolute reason. With his constantly regenerating body, he stubbornly withstood this strongest domain from a thousand years ago!
Laughing loudly, Sukuna leaped down from the shrine, stepping on countless white bones, and kicked Gojo Satoru, who was trying to withstand the attack with healing!
Gojo Satoru's reaction speed remains astonishing.
He quickly raised his hand to resist, but Sukuna immediately swung his hand and unleashed several more powerful slashes at Gojo Satoru's face.
But Gojo Satoru barely paused, enduring several slashes before quickly grabbing Su Nuo's kicking leg, using his waist to forcefully throw him to the ground.
Then he raised his foot, and a surge of powerful magical energy erupted as he kicked Su Nuo hard in the chest!
Even though Su Nuo blocked the kick with his arms beforehand, the bones in his arms still groaned under the strain, and his body was sent flying backward, crashing heavily into the shrine of the Demon-Subduing Chef. He rolled among the bones, smashing countless skeletons and making a teeth-grinding cracking sound.
Su Nuo quickly got up, her smile undiminished, and she couldn't help but admire him in her heart.
"Even though it was in a state of full activation of the Reversal Technique to withstand my attack, it can still be so agile!"
And suddenly—
boom.
Countless cracks appeared on the shrine behind Su Nuo, and then it shattered.
The "Demon-Subduing Chef" then collapsed, turning into countless fragments of magical power that dissipated like black snowflakes.
"What happened, Sukuna?" Gojo Satoru stood in a pool of blood, his wounds healing rapidly at a visible speed, revealing new, intact skin beneath his tattered uniform.
He tilted his head, a relaxed smile on his face. "Even with such a clear advantage, your domain still shattered?"
Su Nuo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes darkening.
He was thinking rapidly in his mind.
"Including the three fingers the little devil swallowed before, he has swallowed a total of fifteen fingers so far."
It's just a matter of a few strands; would the efficiency and output of the spell power really differ that much?
No, it's most likely because of this brat's body!
Although I have completely suppressed his soul, if his will continues to resist, my spell power output will continue to decrease...
Seeing that Sukuna remained silent, Gojo Satoru revealed his usual relaxed expression.
"What's wrong? Has the ever-proud Sukuna-sama started blaming Megumi for his defeat?" Gojo Satoru seemed to read his mind. "If that's the case, I suggest you go back to Hisahito's body!"
Su Nuo snorted coldly, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes.
"Don't lump me in with those complainers. Even if that were true, I wouldn't regret the choice I made."
Gojo Satoru pursed his lips, exaggeratedly mimicking Sukuna's expression, and said in a high-pitched voice, "Even if that's true, I won't regret the choice I made~"
Then, Gojo Satoru regained his relaxed expression and said with a smile, "In that case, just frankly admit your weakness. You may have been the strongest a thousand years ago, but in this era, you are the challenger!"
"Sharp-tongued and quick-witted!"
The next second, their bodies collided again.
The bridge collapsed completely beneath their feet, the river was churned and flowed upstream, the clouds in the night sky were dispersed, revealing the pale moonlight.
Each punch and kick was like a small explosion, the shockwaves plowing through the surrounding ruins once more, the smoke and rubble forming a dense, sun-obscuring fog.
Su Nuo was waiting for a certain time.
The shadow beneath his feet began to writhe restlessly, like boiling black asphalt.
"Grandpa's almost recovered, right? Time to start the second round!"
After saying that, Gojo Satoru formed a hand seal again, and "Boundless Emptiness" was activated once more!
However, this time, Su Nuo failed to form the Yama Heaven Seal.
Gojo Satoru's expression froze as he watched Sukuna strike a familiar pose, and the familiar Furu mantra echoed in his ears.
"Burube Yura Yura."
Eight-Handed Sword - Demon Void, the Divine General of the Otherworldly Ring!
Appear in Gojo Satoru's domain!
A colossal shikigami descended from the sky, emanating a suffocating sense of oppression. Its massive body obscured the faint light within the domain, casting shadows over half the battlefield.
Wu Tiaowu's mind suddenly focused.
"What's going on? Has the subjugation ritual been completed?"
However, when he looked up, he saw Su Nuo maintaining the hand seals with a smug smile on his face, his figure rapidly retreating towards the edge of the domain.
In an instant, Gojo Satoru had seen through the opponent's entire scheme.
No, it shouldn't be yet!
The instant I entered the domain, I summoned the otherworldly ring god general, Mo Xu Luo, and dragged him and me into the subjugation ritual. This was supposed to be a desperate move, a one-for-one exchange, but within my domain, instead of engaging in domain-based combat, I used—"Mi Xu Ge Long"...
He looked at the cage of cursed power surrounding Su Nuo, his expression slightly serious.
Instead of using "Subduing Demon Chef", I used "Mixu Gelong" to neutralize the effects of my domain, allowing Demon Void to take the damage from "Boundless Void" alone.
In that case, since I was the first to be attacked, I became Mo Xuluo's first target!
only……"
Looking at the Demon Void Luo who was suffering from the "Boundless Void," his huge body struggled faintly in the flood of information in the domain, but remained motionless.
Gojo Satoru sneered.
"Although he is the shikigami that once killed the six-eyed sorcerer with unscrupulous spells and possesses a shikigami that can adapt to all attack abilities, as long as he remains in my domain, he will only be able to take a beating. I must kill him before he adapts!"
Without the slightest hesitation, he quickly raised his hand, and red light gathered at his fingertips.
"Spell Reversal—'Hah!'"
"Don't even think about it!"
Suddenly appearing in the center of the battlefield, Sukuna, while maintaining the Mikkuri, grew another hand from the side of his body and grabbed Gojo Satoru's wrist.
Gojo Satoru was startled, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
"This guy expanded his spell to include me, and then used that to neutralize my spell!"
"And the third hand...right, Ryomen Sukuna originally had four hands, but now it's missing one, probably because it hasn't eaten all the fingers yet!"
The next second, Gojo Satoru's unfinished technique was forcibly interrupted by Sukuna, who then grabbed him and threw a punch at him.
Gojo Satoru silently dodged, a smirk playing on his lips.
"But what's with this ridiculous look on your face? You're working even harder than I thought, Sukuna!"
He turned and kicked Su Nuo in the head.
Su Nu ducked to avoid it, a smile spreading across his face.
"Same to you!"
Sukuna pressed close and, taking advantage of the moment when Gojo Satoru raised his leg, clenched his newborn hand into a fist and slammed it hard into Gojo Satoru's ribs.
Click.
The dull thud of breaking bones was drowned out by the sound of fists pounding against flesh.
Gojo Satoru's pupils contracted slightly as excruciating pain exploded from his ribs, spreading to half of his body. He gritted his teeth and pulled away, a fine layer of cold sweat seeping from his forehead. He turned his palm upward, an endless gravitational pull coming from beneath Sukuna.
With a full-damage "Azure" strike, Su Nuo was heavily sucked to the ground, his back slamming into the earth and sending shards of stone flying.
With the removal of the "Mixu Gelong", Su Nuo was completely exposed within the "Boundless Void"!
