Six-Eyed Sukuna, starting from Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 214 Familiar Process (Two Chapters Combined)

"Go, pick it up." Su Wu threw the fluffy ball in her hand and raised her hand to Hong Yan.

The once majestic demon is now depicted as a small dumpling in the shrine, similar in size to the two puppies, but even more beautiful.

The stronger the dog demon, the more beautiful it is.

But given its tiny size, the only word to describe it is "cute."

Out of respect for the great demon, Hongyan simply squatted on the ground, swishing its tail unhappily.

What do they take him for? A plaything? Or do they think he's one of those two little brats? That he'd be interested in something like this?

As a mature dog demon who was several hundred years old, he had never been interested in such things.

"Dogs are cuter when they're lively." Su Wu sighed and casually pulled out a larger ball of yarn.

This was a toy prepared for Kong, but the other party grows up very quickly.

"Go play." He tossed the ball up, and the white tiger pounced on it without any hesitation.

"You seem to have it easy." Gojo Haru descended from the sky, landing precisely next to the boy and sitting down.

He was called in for a discussion, which basically meant he went to a pre-battle meeting with other people.

After all, since Ryomen Sukuna has come to Kyoto, given his personality, Kyoto certainly can't let him in, since... that guy eats people.

Although Wu Jun wasn't exactly a good person, at least he didn't have any special requirements when it came to food.

Fighting him would only mean certain death.

Fighting Ryoumen Sukuna... even after death, you might be recycled and turned into a dish.

Who can accept this? It goes against human nature!

Furthermore, since there was already Su Wu, people have a kind of stress response to a second person who wants to break the rules.

So they went even further than before. After discussion, they decided to go all out and start sabotaging Ryomen Sukuna all the way from outside Kyoto. As soon as the opponent got near Kyoto, they would start fighting immediately, giving the opponent no time to react.

A group of people attacked together and sent the other party away on the spot.

The reason for calling Gojo Haru over is... this guy is strong, and can be a key member of the Sukuna team.

Although they felt that losing Six Eyes might weaken their strength a bit, they could still use them.

So even though everyone knew that Gojo Haru and the so-called Gojo Kiri had an unusual relationship, no one cared. They just called him over anyway.

It would be even better if, because of him, one of the demigods in the shrine could be summoned down to perform the Sukuna ritual.

Having already known the ending, Haru Gojo remained calm throughout as everyone offered suggestions.

As for him? He had no suggestions to offer. In any case, the outcome couldn't be changed. The group of people at the meeting might all die, or maybe only half of them would die. After all, some of them weren't strong enough to fight Su Nuo, so they would only send their subordinates.

So no matter who asked him for his opinion, Gojo Haru always gave the same answer: "I think what you said is already very good, I don't have any opinion."

Some people secretly tested him to see if he could summon the humanoid weapon of mass destruction from the shrine, to which he simply smiled and said, "Do you think it would rip my heart out like it ripped out my six eyes?"

At first, I thought the rumors about having six eyes gouged out were outrageous, but now Haru Gojo has managed to use them to fool others.

What? Do you guys think that guy has any feelings for me? If he did, would my six eyes have been gouged out?

So stop thinking about it and just work hard yourself.

During the subsequent meeting, Haru Gojo completely disappeared from the scene; no one gave him a chance to speak, and he remained silent throughout.

Only after everyone had finished talking and confirmed the general plan did he eagerly leave first.

If he stayed any longer, he would lose his temper and say things like, "It's no use. No matter how many tricks and schemes you use, you still can't beat them."

As long as you are strong enough, you can ignore all conspiracies and tricks.

Those who can be tricked and fall into traps are definitely not strong enough.

Gojo Haru relayed the suggestions from the meeting to Su Wu as if telling a joke, her tone carrying a hint of world-weary composure.

"So, you went that day too?" Su Wu looked at Gojo Haru.

"Of course, it's impossible for me not to go." Gojo Haru shrugged.

"Knowing full well that you're going to your death?" Su Wu's tone was subtle.

"It's just my predetermined fate, nothing to worry about," Gojo Haru said calmly.

Everyone has to die eventually; dying in battle is better than dying of old age.

"The thought that I will never grow old makes me genuinely happy," the white-haired man said with a sincere smile.

It was difficult to see any negative emotions on his face; at least, Su Wu had never seen Gojo Haru's face darken since they met.

He's an amazing guy.

"However, from now on, every time we meet, we should treat it as if it were the last time," Gojo Haru said with a smile.

"...That sounds really unlucky," Su Wu complained.

They were sitting around a hot pot, which was steaming hot.

According to the lifestyle of the nobles of Heian-kyo, they did not eat meat and only ate two meals a day.

Su Wu could not accept this lifestyle; he had to eat four meals a day.

Three meals a day, plus an afternoon tea.

Fortunately, Haru Gojo wasn't a very rule-abiding person, and the two little girls were very obedient and didn't say anything that would spoil the mood.

As for the other dog demons...

They're not human anymore, so how could they follow human eating habits?

So everyone adapted well to Su Wu's way of eating.

All three dogs love it.

Ryomen Sukuna arrived sooner than everyone in Kyoto had guessed, and Gojo Haru therefore left earlier than planned.

"How about we bury your body in this mountain after you die?"

"Using it as energy for the barrier is a way of making use of waste," Su Wu said, stroking her chin.

Even after a sorcerer dies, their power does not dissipate.

Rather than being buried randomly, it's better to be buried in the misty mountains.

At least you don't have to worry about it being dug up and eaten or reused by something.

"...I'm not dead yet." Gojo Haru said with a helpless expression.

Although he was prepared to die, was it really appropriate to discuss how to dispose of his body in front of him?

but……

"Sure, I'll talk to Sukuna and have him kill me and send me here to you," Gojo Haru said jokingly.

That guy definitely won't actually listen to what he says; he's just saying it casually.

"I'm waiting for the kind deliveryman, Ryoumi Sukuna, to come to my door," Su Wu said casually, waving her hand.

So, as a group of people swarmed towards Sukuna like moths to a flame, unleashing their skills and all sorts of abilities, Gojo Haru forgot all about his earlier joke.

It wasn't until everyone around him had fallen, while he, because of his shameless behavior, hadn't been injured, that he remembered that incident.

Speaking of which, how did he die in the end, given how shameless he was?

Ryomen Sukuna's physical condition is truly superior. He has four hands that can form hand seals, making him much faster than others, and he also has two mouths that can chant incantations, making him even more efficient than others.

Furthermore, he possesses a reversal technique, allowing him to recover almost instantly from any injury except for those that are certain to kill him.

Gojo Haru's advantage lies in his unlimited potential, his highly efficient mana regeneration with Six Eyes, and his almost never-wasted curse power.

In the end, he and Ryomen Sukuna became the only two people still standing on the battlefield.

It seems like... he's not going to die?

So why did he believe he was destined to die? Didn't Kiri-kun say he had no idea about Gojo Haru's fate?

Haru Gojo fell into doubt.

The more I recall it now, the more I feel that the boy's expression and tone were full of mockery.

Was I being played by the other party?

This battle, which lasted for several days, ended in a tragic manner.

Haru Gojo is the only one who survived the battle unharmed.

……

"I thought Ryomen Sukuna had the ability or weapon to break my limitless power, just like you, which is why I died." Gojo Haru, who had returned to the shrine after the fight, was sitting in front of Sugiri, her tone puzzled.

"But he didn't, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to come back alive."

They were helpless against each other; both Su Nuo had incredibly thick health bars and could instantly recover, making them virtually invincible.

Because Gojo Haru had no bottom line, Ryoumen Sukuna was unable to kill him.

Having finally encountered such a resilient opponent, Ryomen Sukuna and Gojo Haru chatted for a long time.

There was no arrogance in her eyes at all; on the contrary, she was very... good at chatting.

"Hmm? So he couldn't break through the limitless barrier before?" Su Wu asked thoughtfully.

Oh, by the way, Ryoumen Sukuna learned the Space Slash a thousand years later by observing Makuro.

The opponent is not yet able to ignore the limitless Space Slash.

"What a pity, your corpse could probably maintain the barrier for a long time." Su Wu shook her head, her tone regretful.

"Zen-in Akira is dead," Gojo Haru whispered.

Because of his lack of moral boundaries, nothing happened to him.

Zenji Akira, however, died at the hands of Ryoumen Sukuna.

Of the three heads of the three main families, two, excluding Gojo Haru, have already died.

"...Are you going to move his body over here?" Su Wu asked slowly.

"The Zen family won't agree." Gojo Haru was amused by this remark.

How could the Zen family possibly be willing to leave the patriarch's body on someone else's territory?

Even if it means being burned to ashes, I wouldn't be willing.

"Are most of the fighters in Kyoto dead?" Su Wu suddenly asked curiously.

If I remember correctly, he killed quite a few people...

Then, being killed by Ryoumen Sukuna like that...

"...probably eight or nine out of ten." Gojo Haru sighed.

"So a thousand years later, sorcerers have declined and Onmyoji have disappeared." Su Wu said knowingly.

Most of the talented and capable people in this wave have been killed, and it is estimated that most of the dead were commoners, not from aristocratic families.

For the next thousand years, the three families were able to recuperate and continue to develop.

It is inevitable that fewer and fewer ordinary people will possess talent, and that social classes will gradually solidify.

Gojo Satoru was isolated by the higher-ups in the sorcery world because he betrayed his own class.

As the head of one of the three great families, he promoted, befriended, and appointed commoner disciples, while clashing with the higher-ups of the aristocratic families.

Even the strongest, even those from extraordinary families, can be isolated.

It's like... King Zhou of Shang, who didn't appoint nobles but instead used commoners and slaves, so the so-called noble class rebelled.

"But these people in Kyoto probably already have a complete set of procedures for dealing with this," the white-haired boy said dismissively.

"Perhaps." Gojo Haru's tone didn't seem to care much.

The two Sukuna seemed to have been satisfied, and did not do anything else for the rest of the time.

Even if someone was loitering around him, he would kill them without saying a word.

It's like... a lion that's eaten and drunk its fill and is too lazy to bother with the cats and dogs passing by.

Meanwhile, the nobles of Kyoto also arranged several meetings, large and small, over the next few days.

Meetings with varying numbers of participants.

Finally, they came up with a solution.

They directly applied the requirements that Su Wu had previously mentioned to the two-faced Su Nuo.

For example, proposing to build a shrine for Ryomen Sukuna and offer sacrifices.

The practice of cannibalism by two-faced Sukuna has been legalized.

Consider it an offering.

Some gods offer animals as sacrifices, some offer rice balls, and the sacrifices for a demon like Ryomen Sukuna are human, which is not unacceptable.

Anyway, it's not like we haven't done human sacrifice before.

In short, they listed a bunch of things to express their sincerity.

They'll do anything if Ryomen Sukuna is willing to stop causing trouble in Kyoto. Let's all live in peace.

Now that these conditions have been set, the next step is to find someone to discuss them with Ryomen Sukuna.

Given Gojo Haruna's remarkable strength (among those who gathered to challenge Ryoumen Sukuna, he was the only one who was uninjured and alive),

It has no limits, so it's useful.

Sending someone else to find Ryomen Sukuna might result in their death, but sending Gojo Haru would not.

So many people have already died, we should save as much as we can.

So after thinking it over, everyone made a clean and decisive decision to let Gojo Haru handle the task.

With little hope, Gojo Haru made a trip to meet Ryomen Sukuna, carrying these conditions.

"The Emperor has expressed his willingness to build a shrine for you and enshrine you..." he stated the conditions offered by everyone in a dry manner.

"Will I be treated the same as that guy who calls himself the Moon God?" Ryoumen Sukuna had only one question.

"If you want, it's the same." Gojo Haru said helplessly.

"No, I don't want the same one. I want a shrine that's better than his." Ryomen Sukuna made his request with a sneer.

"...Okay, I'll talk to them. Is there anything else you want?" Gojo Haru asked again.

"Tell that guy I'll go find him once my shrine is finished." The pink-haired boy raised his eyebrows, his tone rising with anticipation.

"Don't forget to fight me if you agree." He stuck out his tongue from his belly, his smile arrogant.

"Is there anything else?" Gojo Haru then asked.

It's best to state all your requirements at once to avoid making him have to make another trip.

Those guys seem to be treating him like a laborer because he has no bottom line.

"No, as long as it's better than that guy, that's fine." The pink-haired boy looked completely unconvinced.

"As for you... would you like to fight me again?" Four red eyes looked at the white-haired man with a half-smile.

For a moment, Gojo Haru felt that the scene was somewhat familiar.

Four red eyes...

When he first saw Mist-kun, the boy also had four red eyes...

He was surprised at the time, wondering how there could be a red six-eyed creature.

What connection do those two have?
