Chapter 4 - The Forbidden Sutra

The shrine is ashes.

Adam walks alone now—through ruins, through memory, through cursed zones where even spirits dare not tread. His eyes burn with clarity. His soul trembles with weight.

He's searching.

For the Hidden Clan.

For the truth.

For the Sutra.

Legends say Gojo sealed it away before his final battle. A technique so dangerous it was erased from every record. A technique that doesn't destroy cursed energy—

It rewrites it.

Adam finds the first clue in Kyoto.

A temple buried beneath the city, guarded by blind priests who speak in riddles. They call him "The Twice-Born." They say his soul is split. They say the Sutra will kill him.

He doesn't care.

He descends into the catacombs.

The walls whisper.

"To rewrite cursed energy is to rewrite fate."

He finds the Sutra etched into obsidian—thousands of lines, each one pulsing with ancient power. He touches it.

And screams.

Visions flood his mind.

Gojo, standing alone against a sea of cursed spirits. His body broken. His eyes bleeding. He activates the Sutra—but it costs him everything. His name. His memory. His existence.

He didn't die.

He was erased.

Adam wakes in a pool of blood.

The Sutra is burned into his mind.

But it's incomplete.

The final verse is missing.

And the Hidden Clan has it.

They live in the shadows of Tokyo Tower, cloaked in illusions, guarded by cursed constructs made from forgotten gods. Adam infiltrates their sanctum, cloaked in silence, eyes blazing.

He finds them.

Old.

Cruel.

Afraid.

They recognize him.

"You are Gojo's echo."

Adam doesn't speak.

He moves.

Fast.

Precise.

Brutal.

The battle is chaos—cursed techniques colliding, space warping, time unraveling. Adam uses Blue and Red in tandem, creating a pseudo-Hollow Purple that obliterates half the sanctum.

But the Clan's leader remains.

A woman with no name.

She holds the final verse.

She offers it—for a price.

"Let Sukuna consume you. Let him awaken fully. Only then will the Sutra bind him."

Adam hesitates.

He knows what that means.

He'll lose control.

He'll become a vessel.

But he'll also gain the power to rewrite Sukuna's existence.

He takes the verse.

He speaks it.

And Sukuna laughs.

"Finally."

Adam's body convulses.

His eyes go black.

The Sutra activates.

Reality bends.

And the world holds its breath.
