I'm doing Jujutsu Kaisen in the ninja world.

Anyone who enters this mountain will disappear. Occasionally, one or two lucky ones will stumble out by chance, and they seem to have seen something extremely terrifying, becoming insane. But they will always be carrying priceless medicinal herbs.

At first, some people suspected that they wanted to keep the precious medicinal herbs on the mountain for themselves. However, everyone who came out of there alive returned home and died suddenly within a few days, without exception.

This dispelled the greed of some people, who quickly reported the matter.

To resolve this matter, Kirigakure sent people to investigate one after another, but all of them came to nothing.

Finally, a Jonin was sent to lead the team. A total of 6 people went in, but only one Chunin came out alive.

But after the man came out, he went mad, repeatedly muttering things like, "Dead, all dead," and "Fake, you're all fake, I'm going to kill you all."

What's even more puzzling is that instead of medicinal herbs, he brought with him some jewelry that looked very valuable.

As a survivor, Kirigakure immediately sent people to protect him.

However, just one day later, this Chunin died suddenly without any prior warning.

So many people sacrificed their lives, yet we gained virtually nothing.

Left with no other option, Kirigakure could only designate the 'Mist Mountain Incident' as an S-rank mission and issue it out, hoping that someone could resolve it, or at least leave behind some useful clues.

After reviewing the detailed information, Shinji was fairly certain that the creature residing on this misty mountain was a [Special Grade Cursed Spirit], though it was still unclear whether it had activated its domain.

However, if left unattended and allowed to spread unchecked, the growth rate and terrifying nature of this [Special Grade Cursed Spirit] will far exceed expectations.

Therefore, the best way to deal with those cursed spirits with great potential is to win a quick battle before they grow stronger.

We absolutely cannot delay; the longer we delay, the worse it will become!

[Chapter 148. The Strange Fog (Updated at 8 AM from now on)]

As they prepared to ascend the mountain, Shinji cautioned, "This mission objective might be quite challenging. Don't be too careless until you understand the enemy's capabilities."

"Ha~~~"

Hidan yawned as he pulled out a small mirror, about the size of his palm, and started fixing his hair.

Ah Fei was lying on the ground watching the ants move their food, making all sorts of strange, astonishing noises...

No one was listening to him at all.

Shinji's face immediately turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Ada!

Snap, snap!

One hit each of them on the back of the head.

Hidan's hairstyle was messed up, and Tobi plunged headfirst into an ant nest.

"Are you trying to die?! You've messed up my hair again after all that work I did!"

"Ughhhhh, it's going to get into my eyes!"

Holy crap....

Shinji almost turned into Fly Guy.

Forget it, I'm too tired. Let's go up the mountain!

Not long after Shinji and his group went inside, Mei Terumi arrived.

Since Shinji and his group did not conceal their whereabouts, it was extremely easy for Terumi Misaka, as the Mizukage, to find them.

Furthermore, Mei Terumi did not discover any other companions along the way.

However, after hesitating for a moment, Mei Terumi stepped inside.

Since we're already here, we should at least finalize things.

Furthermore, she also wanted to take this opportunity to resolve the S-level mission in front of her.

As they ventured deeper, the fog thickened, and visibility continued to decrease.

Until one point, all that could be seen was a vast expanse of white fog.

Mei Terumi frowned slightly. Although she could also use the Mist Concealment Technique and was used to traveling through the mist.

However, she was unfamiliar with the surroundings, and the silence made it impossible for her to determine direction by sound, making every step she took feel like a gamble.

If she continued to try her luck aimlessly like this, she felt she would soon get lost in this fog and never be able to get out.

Thinking about this, she seemed to understand why so few people who came in were able to leave.

Suddenly, she formed a hand seal and summoned two water clones, one on the left and one on the right, to explore the path ahead.

With two water clones clearing the way ahead, she was able to continue.

However, after only a short while, her two water clones lost contact and were destroyed.

"Danger ahead..."

After her water clones are destroyed, they cannot transmit their memories back to her main body like shadow clones, so Mei Terumi is unaware of the dangers ahead.

But at that moment, the relatively calm fog around her suddenly began to churn.

"Well..."

A hand formed from condensed mist grabbed Mei Terumi by the neck and lifted her into the air.

Mei Terumi, who was suddenly attacked, looked down but still couldn't see anything.

Fortunately, she had already become vigilant and made preparations in advance when her water clones were destroyed.

She fiercely swung the water whip in her hand in all directions, successfully dispersing the mist, and she fell back to the ground, clutching her neck.

At that moment, a figure formed entirely of mist stood not far behind her, watching quietly.

. . . . . .

"This fog gives me a very bad feeling..."

Shinji thought for a moment and then took out the [Greedy Eyeball].

Before entering the mountains, he had already fed the creature with his own flesh and blood, and it was now fully fed and ready to be used.

If some time passes, or after an investigation, the creature will become hungry again, and then it will need to be fed flesh and blood again.

This is a little trick that Shinji figured out after using it so many times.

As the [Greedy Eyeball] began to work, Shinji's expression grew increasingly serious.

Because of the feedback from the [Greedy Eyeball], the cursed spirits react everywhere!

If it's not broken, then it must be...

Shinji looked at the surrounding fog and had a guess in his mind.

"Hidan, Tobi, watch out for the fog around us. I'm starting to suspect... huh?"

"Hidan! Tobi?!"

There was complete silence all around, and no one responded to him.

"If this is a prank, you two are absolutely dead, you hear me? Answer me now."

I called out a few more times, but there was still no response.

Shinji's heart sank; he had no idea when they had started to drift apart.

The fog wasn't so thick before; we could see each other, albeit not very clearly...

But at this point, he was no longer in a hurry.

Since the other party deliberately separated them, there must be a backup plan. He just needs to wait for the other party to show up.

As for the other two hotheads, he didn't need to worry about them at all.

After carefully storing the [Greedy Eyeball], Shinji pondered for a moment, then buried 'Little Black' in the ground beneath his feet and waited quietly.

After a short while, he was surprised himself, "It actually works?!"

So he gave 'Little Black' an order and then left.

. . . . . .

"Hey, you bastard Shinji, do you even know the way? It feels like we're going to the same place no matter where we turn."

Seeing the slightly blurry figure ahead, Hidan quickly took a few steps, wanting to call out to the other person.

Strangely, when he patted Shinji on the shoulder, he hit nothing at all.

Looking again, there was no one in front of me, only a vast expanse of white, empty fog.

"Huh? You bastard Shinji? Tobi?!"

Receiving no response, Hidan's expression immediately turned somewhat unpleasant. So what exactly had he been following for so long?

His pale face wasn't because he was worried about his own safety; he was afraid that if he talked about this later, those two bastards would mercilessly laugh at him!

How could I lose track of them while following them? That's so embarrassing!

"Forget it, never mind. As long as Hidan finds this damn thing and kills it, everything will be fine!"

Unwilling to think, Hidan drew his Bloodstained Three-Month Scythe, randomly chose a direction, and strode out with murderous intent.

. . . . . .

"Let me make this clear beforehand, Hidan-senpai, I've always believed that only you can lead the Jashin Cult to glory. I was just joking last time, just kidding! So where are you taking me? Shinji-senpai, help! Hidan-senpai is going to kill me to cover up the crime!"

Nobody paid any attention...

Gradually, Ah Fei also realized that something was wrong.

So he stopped, and the thick fog quickly enveloped him.

The 'Hidan-senpai' who had led him all the way here disappeared into the mist.

"Interesting, it actually managed to fool my eye. So, is the problem with this ubiquitous fog...?"

Tobi was quite surprised that even his Sharingan couldn't see through the mist.

Moreover, from God's perspective, it can be seen that countless fog people have surrounded Afei.
