Jujutsu Kaisen: My spells have no limit

Gojo Satoru has withdrawn.

But it left Lin Yi with a mess.

Lin Yi sat in the courtyard of the dojo, basking in the sun. Behind him, he could hear the sounds of Itadori Yuujin, Fushiguro Megumi, and Gojo Tanzaburo conducting their daily sorcerer training.

As a vessel crafted by the Rokuro, Yuujin Itadori, though lacking any magical formulas, already possesses the innate qualities to become a sorcerer.

His growth potential, comparable to that of a tyrant and a god, combined with his powerful spell-based punches, was enough to propel Yuuji Itadori directly into the ranks of second-level spellcasters.

But compared to Yuujin Itadori's growth, Lin Yi was more concerned about the investigation report on the birth of the curse at the advanced level of sorcery given to him by Satoru Gojo.

Although the specific location of the curse's origin was blacked out in the report, Lin Yi figured out the name of the blacked-out place by process of elimination: Fukushima!

Lin Yi knew very well what had happened in that place in the past. Coupled with the sins Japan had committed in the past, and Japan's characteristics as a vortex of cursed power, it was only natural that such a top-level cursed spirit would be born there.

However, if his guess comes true, then the combat strength of the Cursed Spirits will need to be reassessed.

Given this situation, the Cursed Spirits, who have been dominating in the Jujutsu Kaisen world, might be about to receive an unprecedented buff.

Lin Yi's guess was not unfounded. He knew of four special-grade cursed spirits of the Heavenly Calamity: Louhu, Huayu, Tuogen, and Zhenren. He could find the origins of all four of them in Japan.

The water clock originated from the Japanese people's fear of volcanic eruptions; the flower-shaped oval originated from the forest at the foot of Mount Fuji, which has been a suicide hotspot since ancient times; the dagogan was born from people's fear of tsunamis; and the real person was born from the malice between people.

Based on the origins of the four Calamity Cursed Spirits, and considering the locations Gojo Satoru went to investigate this time, as well as the geographical environment and historical factors of Japan, at least three more Calamity-level Special Grade Cursed Spirits could be born in Japan.

"Are typhoons and earthquakes related to nuclear power? Damn it, you didn't do the balancing when you were supposed to, and now you're frantically patching things up. Is this the curse that brought me to this world as a transmigrator? What is this? The fusion of seven Cataclysmic-level Special Grade Cursed Spirits into a Super Great Cursed Spirit?"

Lin Yi rubbed his forehead and cursed under his breath. At this point, the original plot could only be used as a reference. Who knew how much the balancing mechanism of this ditch would strengthen the Cursed Spirit faction?

"Mr. Ichiro? What happened?"

"There's nothing there, it's just that Hisahito needs to understand his mission more deeply."

"Huh?"

That night, in Koinokuchi Gorge, Saitama Prefecture, under the Hachijūhachi Bridge.

Lin Yi, accompanied by Itadori Yuujin, who had changed into the uniform of the Jujutsu High School in advance, Fushiguro Megumi, and his assistant Gojo Tanzaburo, arrived at the bridge.

Passing through the woods, they came to see a winding stream flowing in front of them.

"Why did we come here, Mr. Ichiro?"

Fushiguro Megumi was the first to ask a question.

"Of course, it's to exorcise cursed spirits."

"Is there a cursed spirit here?"

Fuhei looked around but didn't sense any fluctuations in magical power. Lin Yi didn't explain, as it was too troublesome. He simply invited them to come with him to the riverbank, and when he saw the width of the river that they could easily cross, he gave a brief explanation: count to three and then jump across together.

Although Hisahito Itadori and the others did not know the reason, they nodded to indicate that they would do as he said.

"Then, three!"

As Lin Yi finished speaking, the four of them stepped across the river together. The moment their feet touched the other side...

The surrounding environment changed instantly, and a domain unfolded beneath Lin Yi and his companions, enveloping them in the surrounding landscape. Coral reefs were everywhere, and cursed spirits resembling Dugtrio from Pokémon emerged from every corner of the domain, emitting eerie whimpers.

This sudden change prompted Fushiguro Megumi and the others to take action.

Megumi Fushiguro clapped his hands together, making a dog-like gesture to summon the shikigami Tamagu. Yuujin Itadori assumed a boxing stance, his magical power surging in his fists. Tanzaburo Gojo even pulled out a Kamen Rider Black-RX mask and put it on his face, invoking the spirit to possess him.

Lin Yi stood still, observing his surroundings.

As expected, Lu Suo retrieved the Su Nuo finger that had been placed there, so there was no longer any soil for the birth of a top-tier cursed spirit. Only these level-two cursed spirits, existing in the form of earthbound spirits, remained.

Lin Yi thought to himself, then looked at Fu Hei Hui beside him who seemed to be facing a formidable enemy, and then assigned them tasks.

"Then, these guys are yours to deal with. Mr. Tanzaburo, just watch them and don't interfere unless necessary."

"You're planning to leave a cursed spirit of this size to me and Hisahito Itadori for exorcism, Mr. Ichiro?"

"Wasn't I clear enough? You're a level two sorcerer, Fushiguro Megumi, and these spirits are only level two. Isn't it common knowledge in the sorcery world that sorcerers can exorcise spirits of the same level? Yuujin, do your best, I have high hopes for you."

"Oh! I will, Mr. Ichiro!"

"Don't just agree to this without my consent, Hisahito Itadori! Are you just going to stand by and do nothing, Mr. Hayashi Ichiro?"

"I plan to wait outside for your good news."

Compared to Hisahito Itadori's boundless energy, Megumi Fushiguro looked utterly dejected. He couldn't understand how Lin Yi could be so sure there was a trigger-based growth domain here.

Lin Yi was too lazy to explain to Fukuro Megumi. He waved his hand, activated his spell effect to switch to the Heaven and Tyrant Knight form, ignored the limitations of the birth domain, and left easily.

Only the sweating Fushiguro Megumi, the energetic Itadori Yuujin, and the silent Gojo Tanzaburo, acting as gatekeepers, remained in this area to face the attacks of these three-mouse cursed spirits.

The noisy, eerie cries of the cursed spirits disappeared from his ears. Lin Yi looked at the mountain wall behind him. He was not worried about Fushiguro Megumi and Itadori Yuujin inside the barrier.

Without the special-grade cursed spirit created by Sukuna's fingers, Fushiguro Megumi and Itadori Yuujin's safety would be guaranteed.

What he was supposed to do wasn't to act as a babysitter for these two guys inside the barrier. If Lin Yi wasn't mistaken, these cursed spirits and the barrier were also the work of Lu Suo. He used this method of setting up such barriers throughout Japan to filter out ordinary people who were suitable for being possessed by the souls of ancient sorcerers and to mark them.

This is how Fushiguro Megumi's older sister, Fushiguro Tsuki, fell victim to the virus.

Since he had triggered the barrier with Itadori Hisahito, it was only natural that Rōsō would notice.

With that thought, Lin Yi leaped from under the bridge to the top, stood by the bridge, closed his eyes to rest, and let the night wind ruffle his trench coat.

The night wind made Lin Yi's trench coat flutter. Fushiguro Megumi and Itadori Yuujin, who were trapped in the barrier under the bridge, had not yet come out. It seemed that the two of them were still lacking in coordination in their first team-up to exorcise a level-two cursed spirit.

But the person Lin Yi was waiting for had already arrived.

"Yo, Ichi-chan, long time no see."

"It really has been a long time, Xia Youjie."
