The brave Simmel wants to resign

Gotiao, you bastard... (half annoyed)

"You know why I called you here, right?" Gojo Satoru forcefully interrupted Simmel's rage. "Everyone is ready, and all the available forces are here."

Where is that [angel]?

"In the end, we didn't find it. Either they didn't take any action, or..." Gojo Satoru scratched his head nonchalantly, not finishing his sentence, "And the cursed artifact storehouse was also completely destroyed. Fortunately, we always carry our fingers with us."

"Alright, that's about it—compared to others... now that the fight's about to start, what's the outcome? Will it still be the two of us going in?"

Gojo Satoru is actually a one-on-one fighter.

He is clearly the type who likes to solve things by himself, which stems from his love of showing off, and also from his genuine strength.

However, Gojo Satoru wasn't so arrogant as to say to Simmel, "You're in my way."

He was afraid that if he took a sleeping spell, Simmel would write "Fresh meat three dollars and fifty cents a pound" on his face with an oil-based pen.

But the problem is-

Are the two of them enough?

"To be honest, I had a vague feeling at the time that Su Nuo had surpassed his peak, and with the [Undying] technique, I was not confident that I could defeat him."

"My decision is to wait until you're back to your full strength before teaming up to take him down."

"However, judging from Su Nuo's attitude, he probably didn't wait this month for nothing."

Although Gojo Satoru didn't know about the "Bathing" and "Instant Buddha," he could guess that Sukuna had a backup plan.

"I don't know what level he is now. If we both get taken down in one go, we're doomed here~" Gojo Satoru said, as if he were talking about someone else's business.

"so--"

"【So I'll go first alone】—Don't talk nonsense like that."

"Cut~"

Gojo Satoru missed his chance for a one-on-one fight and looked annoyed.

"So? What's the conclusion?"

Simmel remained silent for a long time.

"First battle - let's add two more people."

Gojo frowned subconsciously.

But Simmel quickly persuaded her.

Leadership qualities: C+++

As a mere adventurer, he lacks the ability to command an army or a kingdom. As a hero who vanquishes the Demon King and ushers in a new era, the only place he can be a 'leader' is his own small team.

In other words, if we're talking about squads, he's the best leader.

With the goal of 'saving the world' and in a group of four, it has the effect of turning the 'impossible' into the 'possible'.

Simmel needs to trigger this ability, which can improve the base attributes of four people.

"I can't pretend I didn't hear that."

Swah——

The door was pushed open.

Xia Youjie walked in.

------------------

"Oh? Mr. Lu Ziyun?"

“Gah....Etsuku Yuta.”

In the college corridor, Lu Ziyun bumped into Yi Gu You Tai and immediately made a wary and disgusted expression, while Yi Gu happily came over to greet her.

"I happen to have something I'd like to ask you... Ah, but speaking of which, what brings Mr. Lu Ziyun here?"

"Huh? Do you even need to ask?"

Lu Ziyun spoke with righteous indignation.

"I demand that your commander-in-chief let me be the second to perform the Su Nuo ritual."

Very much like Lu Ziyun's answer.

"Haha, it's wonderful that Mr. Lu Ziyun is willing to lend a hand." Yi Gu didn't mock him, but said genuinely with joy, "Ah, since that's the case, should I help Mr. Lu Ziyun restore his body? That would be more comfortable, wouldn't it?"

"Don't come any closer! I don't trust you!"

Lu Ziyun immediately took out her stick to resist.

She really didn't believe Etotsu Yuta; she was all smiles on the surface, but who knows what she was thinking behind the scenes.

The brain circuitry is abnormal.

What if he's just tired of seeing my petite frame and wants a bigger car? Wouldn't I be falling into his trap if I foolishly got on?

Absolutely not.

Lu Ziyun immediately changed the subject.

"And you, Yuta Otsuko, weren't you supposed to be in the second batch?"

Although she was reluctant to admit it, Lu Ziyun did not consider herself to be a sorcerer of the same caliber as Yi Gu You Tai.

Saying "the second one up" was just an angry outburst.

but.....

Yi Gu You Tai's answer was beyond expectations.

"I'll probably be the first one up."

"what?!"

Lu Ziyun was greatly surprised.

He wanted to say, "Do you think you're qualified to fight Sukuna head-on?" but then he remembered Otsukotsu Yuuta's past achievements and didn't say anything to refute it.

No, it's not just about the results.

It was also because, as someone who had fought against Yi Gu, he vaguely guessed...

The truth hidden by Etotsu.

"I...."

The boy clenched his fist, his smile gentle yet unwavering.

"We will no longer make teachers bear all the burdens."

It's meaningless for one person to become powerful.

I will prove it to you, teacher.

We have...

------------------

Unite all forces that can be united.

Time flies by.

soon....

We arrived on the day of [August 15th].

Chapter 196 [2000% Extreme Edition]

August 15th.

The whole world is watching the decisive battle that is about to take place on that island nation.

[The strongest in history] vs. [The strongest in modern times]?

No, that battle may have already begun when the Star Palace was destroyed.

It could be considered a victory for Gojo Satoru, but at this moment, Sukuna... has become a monster that even his past self could not reach.

What's about to happen...

[The strongest ever]

【King of Curses, Two-Faced Sukuna】vs. 【All Modern Spellcasters】

------------

Meanwhile, inside the vocational college—

The first to appear were pandas that had become much smaller.

"So, how do we pump it up?"

"Lines?" Libra responded from the side. "Cheer up, that's too ordinary, isn't it?"

"Recite poetry?"

"That's so strange. Is there any 'Jump' magazine we can refer to?"

"The grand finale in shonen manga usually unfolds suddenly, right? There's never a scene like this, where you arrange a fight."

"Hisoo vs. Chrollo?"

"Does the battle at the Valley of the End count?"

Dog Roll, Maki, Miwa, Nishimiya, Mai... a group of students started discussing it all at once.

Among them was Fu Hei, whose head was wrapped in bandages.

At the last moment of his journey back to the afterlife, as a 'victim' targeted by Sukuna, Fushiguro made the best choice at that time.

If Sukuna were to control the body with seven fingers to retrieve the fingers from Itadori's body, and then find Tengen—

The consequences would be unimaginable.

However, Fukuro still felt he bore a great responsibility, and he spent his time putting pressure on himself, preparing to go to the front lines at any time and have a showdown with Sukuna.
