JJK Jogoat 94 (Patreon)

Hanami fled the battlefield under Jogo's guidance and was already far from Shibuya. Now, only Jogo and Yuki remained in the ruined outskirts of the city.

Jogo continued to fly in the air, utilizing the flames beneath his feet. He hurled compressed fireballs toward the ground, creating explosions.

Yuki wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, took a deep breath, then bent her legs. Her entire body sprang into the air, reaching toward Jogo's leg.

Yuki was too fast and the flames obstructed his vision. Jogo had not expected Yuki to charge up while braving the flames and unable to dodge in time, he was grabbed.

"I finally caught you!"

Just as Yuki prepared to pull Jogo down from high altitude and give him a taste of her specialty—a fist of love—Jogo's eyes turned cold.

Accompanied by an interruption in the flow of Cursed Energy, his leg that had been grabbed snapped off. Purple blood spilled down from the sky, and Yuki, who was still clutching the leg, fell along with it.

Jogo watched Yuki fall back to the ground and continued to condense fireballs in his hands, attempting to use his aerial dominance to wear down this Special Grade Sorcerer.

In the very next instant, a black vortex suddenly appeared behind him. A palm with sharp claws shot out, piercing through his back.

Looking at the white claw that had pierced through his chest, Jogo, who had been completely unaware of the sneak attack from behind, felt blood gushing continuously from the pierced area.

His large golden pupil constricted, and his face was filled with disbelief. He immediately began to circulate the Cursed Energy within his body and waves of surging flames scorched the surrounding space.

Rika, who had launched the surprise attack, was forced to dodge, but the palm used for the attack was still scorched black and could not be used for a short time.

After successfully forcing the opponent back, Jogo began to retreat rapidly. The large hole in his chest healed continuously, while the feeling of death rushed from the soles of his feet straight to his skull.

Damn it. Is this the Queen of Curses, Rika? Yet now, she appears in the form of a Shikigami.

Since this Queen of Curses had suddenly appeared, there was no doubt about it. Yuta had likely arrived on the battlefield as well.

At this moment, Jogo had reached an altitude of several hundred meters with the help of the flames beneath his feet, maintaining his aerial dominance at all times.

Suddenly, a flash of cold light cut through the desolate night sky. A blade containing Cursed Energy pierced through Jogo's arm.

Looking at the wall of flames in front of him that had been pierced through continuously, Jogo's eyes radiated murderous intent. He immediately melted the blade made of special material and his arm healed rapidly.

On the ground, Yuki and the arriving Yuta watched Jogo, who was high in the sky.

If one were to look closely, they would notice that each of them was wearing a wooden, circular earpiece that was broadcasting everything to them continuously.

This was the final trump card left for everyone by the deceased Kokichi. A voice broadcasted through the earpiece.

"Gojo Satoru has been sealed by the Cursed Spirits at the fifth basement level of Shibuya Station, and the Prison Realm used for the sealing has been taken away."

"What we must do now is kill the Special Grade Cursed Spirit Jogo. According to my hidden cameras, the Prison Realm that sealed Gojo Satoru has undergone a mutation, and only Jogo can carry it away."

"Jogo is currently in the outskirts of the city, engaged in battle with Special Grade Sorcerer Tsukumo Yuki. All remaining personnel, please proceed with haste to crush the Cursed Spirit together."

Even though Kokichi was now just an artificial intelligence, his hatred for Jogo had not diminished in the slightest.

So what if my original body is dead? I still have comrades. I can utilize them and use every blade at my disposal to kill you.

Yuji slowly opened his eyes. He felt a sharp pain throughout his entire body, as if he were falling apart, and sat up in a daze.

In the very next instant, memories flooded into his mind, stimulating his mind and replaying before his eyes like a movie.

He could no longer suppress the churning in his stomach and fell to his knees, vomiting.

He vomited until there was nothing left in his stomach, then, with a face full of despair, he pounded the ground, his fingernails scratching until they bled, tears falling drop by drop.

"Die! Just die! Itadori Yuji! You should just die! Aaaaaahhhhhh!!!"

The faces of those people who had been caught in the crossfire of Sukuna's battle were clearly imprinted in his memory. Yuji felt as if he could feel their vengeful spirits echoing in his ears.

"Why! Why won't you just die! Why, aaaaaahhhhhh!"

Just then, an earpiece was placed against his ear, and the words previously spoken by the Kokichi AI were played in his ear.

After a long silence, he stood up resolutely. The severe injuries on his body had somehow completely healed, and he walked toward the outskirts of the city with a determined look in his eyes.

"I am a sinner. I killed so many people. I failed to protect the weak. I have failed my grandfather. I am guilty."

"Therefore..."

His fists began to burn with Cursed Energy, and the blood at the corners of his eyes only accentuated the anger in his heart.

"Jogo, I will kill you, end this Shibuya Incident, and let those vengeful spirits rest in peace."
