A whim.
To give the children of each family a perfect childhood.
The practical training exchange phase for The Big Three Families' juniors concluded, with Mirai personally stepping in.
Using only one hand and solely relying on Cursed Energy Enhanced Body Strength.
He beat every single one of those arrogant, high-and-mighty brats into a pulp.
And they weren't even allowed to be healed.
Even Gojo Satoru.
Mirai, under Yukino Mifuyu's encouraging clenched fist and gaze,
Thoroughly 'loved' him.
He'll probably never forget it lol.
From then on,
The children's tyrant, future family head,
Became a common topic for The Big Three Families to use to stop their children from crying.
It subtly began to evolve into a Sorcerer version of urban legends.
Finally,
This year's The Big Three Families exchange banquet concluded successfully.
Zen'in Mirai stole the show.
Ten Shadows Technique: Mahoraga burst onto the scene.
The youngest Special Grade Sorcerer in history — born!
This news quickly spread throughout the entire Jujutsu World, propelled by those with ulterior motives!
One stone stirred up a thousand waves!
Its scope of influence, magnitude of impact, and depth of implications were even greater than the birth of the Six Eyes Prodigy!
After all,
One merely represented 『Invincible Potential』.
The other was directly 『A Symbol of Invincibility』!
The superiority and inferiority were immediately apparent!
In the underground black market of Curse Users.
Zen'in Mirai's name stood prominently at the top of the bounty list.
The bounty offered was — two billion!
US dollars!!!
Such a generous bounty, yet no one dared to inquire about it; they even discarded it like worn-out shoes, to the point where even glancing at it again would make them explode!
After a long while,
An old woman, leaning on a cane, took down the bounty poster under the astonished and horrified gazes of the Curse Users.
"What 'Strongest Shikigami in the Jujutsu World' and 'Youngest Special Grade Sorcerer in History'? Did they ask me, Old Woman Ogami, first?"
"This old woman has eaten more salt than that brat has eaten rice!"
"I just got my hands on invincible material, so I'll use that brat to test the waters!"
"My good grandchildren... 『God Eye』, God Ear, God Brain, God's Body, go together and teach that ignorant brat a lesson!"
"Yes, Grandma!" x4
Black market entrance.
Four neurotic youths, varying in height, weight, and build, responded with perfectly uniform, healthy smiles...
Two and a half days later, Akihabara.
"Why do we have to accompany this guy to stroll through this incredibly boring electronics district? Not only does he imitate my face, he imitates my noodles too!"
"Why..."
"Why, exactly?!"
A white-haired, blue-eyed youth couldn't accept reality!
He knelt on both knees!
Head in hands, looking up at the sky!
Beside him,
Another white-haired, blue-eyed youth, almost identical to him in appearance, patted his shoulder.
"There's only one answer~"
"My foolish Otouto~"
"This is all Auntie Mieko's choice."
"Because we unexpectedly look quite similar."
"So feel honored~"
"Starting today, you are the half-brother of His Excellency Zen'in Mirai, the 'Youngest Special Grade Sorcerer in History'!"
"In front of me, you'll always be the little brother, a complete failure lol."
"Muhahahahahahaha!"
Finally saying this line to his convenient Otouto's face,
Mirai was as excited as a six-year-old child.
His King of Heroes-like laughter was wild and unrestrained!
Upon hearing this,
Gojo Satoru became even more heartbroken.
Hands on the ground,
His small head tilted back to the sky,
He let out an unwilling cry!
"No—!!!"
Seeing this,
Mirai's excited grin became even more unrestrained.
A sudden idea struck him, and he pulled out a brand-new speaker, just purchased from the electronics store, from his shadow.
Agathos brand planetary generator, always on standby!
Music, start!
Snowflakes fluttering~
North wind whistling~
Heaven and earth, a vast expanse~
Unrestrained laughter.
Melancholy music.
Unwilling cries.
The small figures of the two youths formed a harmonious and friendly, cheerful picture.
It made the two mature beauties not far away burst into laughter.
They laughed, shaking like swaying branches.
Frost filled the sky.
"Oh, Mirai-sama, please stop teasing Satoru-sama; he's only a six-year-old child~"
Covering her mouth, Takayanagi Mieko chuckled.
Beside her,
Yukino Mifuyu, with a smile in her eyes, parted her pink lips and echoed:
"That's right~ Mirai, don't bully Satoru anymore. As an older brother, you should be a good role model for your younger brother~"
"Mhm!"
Responding with a firm nod, Mirai promised:
"As an older brother, I will definitely raise my younger brother to be a man of integrity!"
Outwardly enthusiastic, cheerful, and vibrant.
But in his inner mental landscape, Mirai
Revealed a comical expression like a demon from hell.
Looking at his kneeling Otouto, who hadn't finished his cry, Mirai narrowed his eyes and mused:
'Don't worry, my failure, Oni-chan will definitely help you avoid a ruined ending lol.'
'However, if you don't live up to expectations yourself, then don't blame me for taking matters into my own hands, hehehehehehe!'
A chill ran down his spine.
Gojo Satoru shivered instantly, subconsciously looking back.
But he only saw Mirai's series of unconcerned actions: hands behind his head, whistling...
On the rooftop of a tall building 2.5 kilometers from Mirai and the others' direction of travel.
"We..."
"Used to be free~"
A healthy-smiling, round-eyed, bearded old man said.
"So, are you going to participate in this bounty hunt or not?" Old Woman Ogami's expression was slightly impatient.
"If it weren't for those spineless juniors being cowards, this old woman wouldn't have come to you, this perverted old man who's obsessed with young idols all day!"
"Hey, hey, hey~"
"You can eat whatever you want, but don't talk nonsense!"
Kurisaka Jiro retorted, "That's a maiden's LOVE~ I'm a die-hard fan, not some perverted old man!"
"Yes, yes, yes =="
"So... what's your answer?"
"Of course it's YES~ I've spent most of my savings supporting idols recently, so it's time to make a big score."
"Five hundred million yen + two billion dollars, an opportunity to make big money like this can't be missed, hehehe!"
"As expected of someone this old woman values, you're certainly more resolute than those youngsters."
Having received the reply she wanted, Old Woman Ogami praised him with satisfaction.
"However..."
Kurisaka Jiro changed the subject and added, "Let me say this beforehand, I'm only responsible for that Six Eyes brat. After I get him, whether I stay or leave is up to my own judgment."
"That's enough."
"As for those two women... although the intel didn't mention them, with their ample figures, big chests, and round hips, they're probably just playthings and eye candy kept by The Big Three Families' important figures, not worth worrying about."
Old Woman Ogami's tone carried a hint of sarcasm and an imperceptible envy.
Kurisaka Jiro merely clicked his tongue upon hearing this and didn't say much.
Anyone who dared to cross a woman at such a time
Would truly be a fool.
After the task assignments were completed,
Kurisaka Jiro went to wait at a place Mirai and the others were bound to pass.
As for Old Woman Ogami, who was a Manifestation Sorcerer,
Due to her own frailty and lack of combat power,
She remained on the rooftop.
Looking down from above.
Monitoring Mirai and the others' movements.
To adjust the plan in time...
The youngest Special Grade Sorcerer in history VS the oldest Curse User of the current era.
The final outcome of this battle between the new and the old
Will directly determine the future prosperity or decline of Curse Users!
