JJK Jogoat 71 (Patreon)

The reason Jogo was able to avoid Unlimited Void was not because of how powerful he was, but because of the hidden trait of the Forgiveness Hat.

The moment he was enveloped by Unlimited Void, the Forgiveness Hat landed on Satoru's head.

A miraculous thing happened. Jogo actually immunized himself against Satoru's attacks, a result he had not anticipated.

It seemed that the Forgiveness Hat had another hidden trait: those who are forced to wear the Forgiveness Hat cannot successfully attack the owner of the hat, the attacks will be directly nullified.

Having realized this, Jogo was just about to make a move to kill Satoru himself when he suddenly detected Kenjaku's aura hidden in the shadows—it was an undisguised killing intent directed at him.

Understanding Kenjaku's plan, he decided to play along, pretending to be AFK and ceasing his attacks on the Satoru in front of him.

Anyway, Satoru would be sealed by the arriving Kenjaku using the Prison Realm, so there was no need for him to go through the trouble of killing him. Besides, he might not even be able to kill him, especially since he didn't have his Cursed Technique right now.

It would be better to use Satoru as bait to lure in the big fish, Kenjaku, and then use the flames he had stored in advance to launch a sneak attack, giving this thousand-year-old geezer a big surprise.

Sure enough, Kenjaku, immersed in the milestone of sealing Satoru, never imagined that the Cursed Spirit in his eyes, who was unable to move due to being hit by Unlimited Void, could still attack. He was blasted into a state of critical injury on the spot.

Watching Kenjaku, whose injuries were gradually recovering and who was eyeing him like watching a prey, Jogo knew that fighting alone didn't offer much of an advantage, so he planned to wake up a helper.

As for whom he could wake up, he already had a candidate in mind.

Since the essence of Unlimited Void is to directly flood the brain with a massive amount of chaotic information, causing consciousness overload, why don't I just blow up Mahito's brain and let him grow another one?

He strode over to Mahito and threw a punch, causing his head to explode.

Very quickly, Mahito's body instinctively used Idle Transfiguration and a perfectly good head reconverged.

Having reshaped a new brain, Mahito opened his eyes. Looking at the unrecognizable figure of Kenjaku before him, he was surprised, yet it was also within his expectations.

"So Geto really did intend to make a move on us after all. What a treacherous guy, especially when we helped him complete the Shibuya Incident."

Seeing that Mahito had also awakened, Kenjaku cursed inwardly, feeling that things were going poorly.

After glancing at his body, which was still continuously recovering, he had already made a decision.

Now Satoru is wreaking havoc inside. The Prison Realm cannot be taken away.

Mahito and Jogo have teamed up to fight me. My injuries are difficult to recover from. I need time to continuously heal myself using Reverse Cursed Technique.

It's mainly the severe burns Jogo just inflicted on me that have made my recovery speed extremely slow.

Time to bail!

Kenjaku turned around and ran. Two Cursed Spirits that looked like centipedes appeared under his feet, assisting him in sliding across the ground like a skateboard.

With the reinforcement of Cursed Energy and the assistance of Cursed Spirits, he covered over 100 meters in just one second and disappeared from sight.

Mahito's expression changed and he was just about to chase after him when Jogo raised a hand to stop him.

He shook his head. "Don't chase a cornered foe. As a guy who has lived for a thousand years, Kenjaku must have many hidden trump cards in his hand. Even though he was seriously injured by me, he didn't reveal them, which means these trump cards are very important.

Neither of us can use our Cursed Technique right now, so it's best to play it safe and go rescue Dagon first. I can feel his aura dropping. Let's get going."

Just the trump cards of Kenjaku that Jogo knew from the original work that hadn't been revealed yet included the Gravity Cursed Technique, as well as an unknown Domain, and he might even be hiding more things.

If it weren't for the fact that Kenjaku was sneak-attacked in the original work, he wouldn't have died so sloppily. It's not an exaggeration to think of a guy who has lived for a thousand years in the worst possible way.

Mahito nodded, and together with Jogo, they rushed towards the second basement level, with lingering worry in their eyes.

Within the perception of the two Special Grade Cursed Spirits, they noticed that the Cursed Energy belonging to Dagon, which was usually as endless as ocean waves, was rapidly dissipating. It was possible he couldn't hold on any longer, which clearly meant he had encountered a powerful enemy.

"Wait, what about Choso and Hanami? We can't just leave them here like this. What if a Jujutsu Sorcerer comes by? Wouldn't they be done for?" Mahito thought of a critical problem and quickly asked.

Jogo thought about it and realized that was true, but how should they store these two guys?

They couldn't just carry them around at all times. If a battle broke out, the aftermath would very likely injure them.

After a while, Mahito clapped his hands.

Choso had been stuffed into a fire cabinet, and a few layers of iron locks had been added.

Hanami had all of his aura suppressed and was thrown into a pile of corpses.

Anyway, the control of Unlimited Void over Special Grade Cursed Spirits only lasts for fifteen minutes. These two arrangements were enough for them to wake up.

After finishing all this, the two continued to rush towards the second basement level.

Jogo felt a vague sense of unease in his heart. This change was completely different from the original work. Kenjaku had not handed the ten fingers of Sukuna to him, but had chosen to keep them himself.

Lacking this key strategic weapon, he was naturally anxious. With his current strength, wanting to defeat Sukuna, who possessed 15 fingers, was very difficult.

Not to mention anything else, if the opponent unleashed a domain, he would have absolutely no power to resist.

It was right at this moment that the long-lost system prompt suddenly sounded.
