I'm doing Jujutsu Kaisen in the ninja world.

As the capillaries on his arms ruptured one by one, the blood flowers, infused with immense magical power, couldn't help but gush out.

"Crimson Blood Manipulation Technique: Circular Spiral Slash!"

Tear, tear...!

Countless tiny blood blades spun and converged at Shinji's right arm, which was pressed against Cyber's chest, forming an incredibly terrifying spiral-shaped blood-red cutting storm.

Then a bloodcurdling scream of extreme pain was heard.

In an instant, the sand-covered Cybertron's chest was torn to shreds, leaving a large hole.

Feeling the excruciating pain, Cybert knew that his fatal weakness had been discovered.

Without the Golden Serpent Sword's "Drying" ability, he was unable to absorb moisture from the outside world.

When he enters a sand-like state, his weakness is precisely water!

The sandification process will temporarily cease when the area is soaked in water.

Blood can replace water.

Shinji took advantage of this to deal a heavy blow to him.

Cybert, who possessed the Serpent Sword, could have completely made up for this fatal weakness, and even become the nemesis of techniques like Water Release and Crimson Blood Manipulation.

But when he lost the Serpent Sword, the situation was completely reversed.

It transformed into techniques like Water Release or Crimson Blood Manipulation, which completely countered Cybertron's sandification ability.

It was as coincidental as if every sip and every bite was preordained by fate.

Speaking of which, Hidan really deserves a lot of credit!

Otherwise, it's hard to say what the final outcome will be.

"Sand Curse Transformation: Quicksand!!!"

Despite his chest being completely mangled, Cybert, as a [Special Grade Cursed Spirit], possessed extremely tenacious vitality. As he materialized, a large amount of cursed power flowed into the yellow sand beneath his feet.

Moreover, this time he was practically risking his life, unleashing his curse power almost as if it were free.

This caused Shinji's feet to instantly turn into a quicksand pit, and the sand was swallowed up at an astonishing speed.

Just as Shinji hesitated, he suddenly heard Hidan shout from behind.

"Damn it, Shinji, come out here! He's finished!"

Looking back, Hidan was standing in the already drawn ritual pattern, chewing something with great effort.

Looking into his hand, one could see that he was clutching a clump of blood-stained sand!

Shinji immediately recalled that the spot where Hidan was standing was the very place where he had first wounded an enemy with the Executioner's Blade not long ago!

Without further hesitation, he quickly formed a long, blood-crystal plank beneath his feet and used it to break free from the quicksand.

"Gulp..."

"Phew~ I finally swallowed it, it really was awful."

"Now it's time for you to experience real terror, but don't cry, little cutie~ Hahahaha..."

Amidst maniacal laughter, Hidan grabbed the Bloodstained Three-Moon Scythe and slashed it directly at his own neck.

With a soft "poof!"

Hidan's head fell directly onto the sand, and his body followed with a thud.

Suddenly, Cybert, whose body was half swallowed by quicksand, froze, and a red line appeared around his neck.

Then his head rolled off.

When his head rolled off, he still looked extremely confused.

He realized he had underestimated these humans.

Despite being a [Special Grade Cursed Spirit], he was extremely powerful from the moment of his birth and had unlimited potential, growing stronger every moment.

But this does not mean that the human world has no means to defeat them.

The sheer number, power, and strangeness of these humans' abilities even exceeded his imagination.

"Next time..."

Cybert's headless body suddenly moved, and the exquisite hourglass that had been hanging at his waist and had been ignored was taken down for the first time.

Then it flipped over.

hum~

"Domain expansion..."

"The Hourglass of Heaven!"

Time seemed to stand still. By the time Shinji realized that the other party could actually use a domain, it was already too late.

All around was still endless yellow sand, as if nothing had changed.

But Shinji knew that they had actually been drawn into each other's territory.

Because the sky... has disappeared.

A black lid hangs in the air.

Shinji also noticed that the yellow sand beneath his feet seemed to be constantly flowing downwards.

If someone were to look down from God's perspective, they would see that the realm that Cybertron has expanded into is an hourglass!

Shinji and Hidan were on the upper level of the hourglass, which is why they had that feeling.

No one knows what terrible things will happen when all the sand runs out...

At that moment, a figure materialized from the swirling yellow sand.

It was Cybertron, whose head had been chopped off by Hidan using the blood of the Death Possession.

However, Cybert's injuries had completely healed, and there was no sign of anything amiss.

Shinji's heart sank, knowing that this time he would probably have to use the trial card for the [Special Grade Cursed Spirit - Kongni].

If that doesn't work, then we can only hope to win a lottery and hopefully get something that can turn things around.

After all, a Superior Spell Spirit that can expand its domain and a Superior Spell Spirit that cannot are not the same kind of being.

Within the opponent's territory, any attack from the opponent is guaranteed to hit!

That alone is terrifying!

All Shinji can do now is to protect the snake sword he picked up from Hidan and prevent him from getting it.

Otherwise, a single attack would turn him into a dried-up corpse.

However, things didn't seem to develop as badly as he had imagined...

"State your names, humans."

"We brothers are known by our names: he's Sasuke, and I'm Naruto. If you're not happy, come find us in Konoha!"

[Chapter 85. Shifting the Blame Eastward]

Sasuke, Naruto...

Shinji was at his wit's end. After all, they were both chosen ones, so they should be able to withstand it... right?

If the other party really dares to go to Konoha to cause trouble for these two, they'll probably be in for a world of hurt even if they activate their domain.

"Sasuke, Naruto... I seem to remember you calling him Hidan, and him calling you Shinji?"

Seeing that the other party wasn't so easily fooled, Shinji wasn't intimidated at all and blurted out, "Oh, those are our surnames. My name is Sushi... oops, Shinji Naruto, and his name is Meatball... ah no, Hidan Sasuke."

Cybert carefully memorized the two names, then his gaze lingered briefly on the snake sword in Shinji's hand.

"Next time..."

"Next time I will retrieve my things myself."

"I will go to Konoha to find you, Shinji Naruto, Hidan Sasuke."

After he finished speaking, he turned into yellow sand and merged into the ground.

Then, with a crack, the domain shattered.

Shinji looked up at the sun and squinted.

"Damn it, I was fooled by that guy."

Clearly, the opponent's final expansion of their territory was merely for self-preservation.

Either the remaining spell power is insufficient to support the opponent in using the power of the domain, or... the opponent's domain is not yet fully constructed.

Simply put, it's all show and no substance, only good for intimidating people.

Shinji prefers the latter.

Because if it were just a matter of magical power, given the importance of that golden serpent sword, the opponent would have had to deploy their domain to kill them at that time.

So the truth is that the other party has already touched the threshold of the field, but has not yet fully built it.

The area they were just caught up in was probably just a broken one.

The opponent wasn't confident of winning, so they retreated.

But perhaps the next time they meet, the other party will be able to unleash the full form of their domain.

If he still can't master the power of the domain by then, he'll probably just get beaten up.

"That won't do..."

Shinji put away the golden snake sword, his gaze lingering on Hidan's decapitated face, pondering how to squeeze every last bit of wool out of him.

I need to find a way to raise the bond value to 1,000 as soon as possible!

"Hopefully, Konoha can step up their game and buy some more time. Of course, it would be best if they could just take that guy down directly."

"Hey, wait a minute."

"It seems like Sunagakure has also been offering a bounty on this guy..."
