Transmigrated as Sukuna, but the Host is Yukinoshita?

Chapter 54 Chapter 48 Stubborn Illness

“Is this also your student?”

Satoru Gojo glanced at Hachiman Hikigaya beneath his feet, stepped back two steps, bent down, and took a closer look, from Hachiman’s perspective, it was like a large black eye glaring right at him.

“He’s rather weak.” Satoru Gojo made his judgment.

“Heh… It’s such a pity to be this weak.” Hachiman Hikigaya could only stare with dead fish eyes, forcing a laugh through clenched lips.

“Can you stand it?” Lin Qi grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled him up. “Use your technique on this white-haired boy!”

“This… isn’t quite right, is it?” Hachiman Hikigaya was drenched in sweat. “Shouldn’t you two know each other?”

Looking at this tall, silver-haired man standing confidently against Lin Qi, it seemed that they were quite evenly matched in strength.

Did Lin Qi really want him to attack such a powerful opponent?

“Yeah, yeah, we’re partners, right? Forcing your student to attack an ally wouldn’t be appropriate,” Satoru Gojo laughed happily, showing no signs of worry as he clearly was not concerned about Hachiman’s technique.

“Don’t you want to punch his face for looking so smug?” Lin Qi patted his back hard enough for him to stumble forward. Then his tone suddenly turned violent. “Just use it! Punch him!”

“Sss…” Hachiman Hikigaya winced from the pain.

Under Lin Qi’s coercion, he reluctantly looked at Satoru Gojo, “I will… proceed. Please be cautious.”

“Why did Sukuna ask this ordinary kid to use a technique on me? Is there something special about his technique? Perhaps he’s trying to see if my invincible domain can be broken?”

As thoughts raced through his mind, Satoru Gojo couldn’t help but show a trace of interest towards this dead-fish-eyed boy with a rotten-looking gaze. “No need to worry, attack however you like, I won’t get hurt.”

Is it due to an unwavering confidence in his own strength?

Hachiman reached out and aimed at one of Satoru Gojo’s arms, activating his technique.

“Huh?”

Satoru Gojo raised an eyebrow, seeming somewhat surprised.

Although Hachiman Hikigaya’s technique didn’t break through his invincible domain and didn’t inflict damage, he could feel his impregnable area being compressed, which was unprecedented.

As the caster of the technique, Hachiman suddenly felt an overwhelming drain on his curse energy. He hurriedly stopped the release of his technique, causing his legs to weaken, and he slumped to the ground again, panting heavily.

“What… happened?” He looked at Satoru Gojo with disbelief, thinking the restrained man did something.

“Cursing back, huh?” Satoru Gojo said casually. “The difference between us is vast; just consuming plenty of curse energy is already a good sign.”

Ignoring the gap between their natural abilities, considering the sheer amount of curse energy, there was an enormous disparity.

The only two people who had more curse energy than Satoru Gojo were Lin Qi and his student, Ukibe Yuuta.

Lin Qi’s gaze switched between the two, finally resting on the unscathed Satoru Gojo.

Initially, Hachiman’s description made her think his awakened technique involved concepts akin to space and dimensions, potentially breaking through Satoru Gojo’s invincible domain.

After receiving Satoru Gojo’s mission message, she thought bringing along Hachiman would be a good test.

However, the results were somewhat disappointing, and although she expected some degree of failure, she still felt slight disappointment.

What a shame, if the dead-fish-eyed boy’s technique truly could penetrate Satoru Gojo’s invincible domain, she might have borrowed some ideas from it to create a genuine attack capable of threatening Satoru Gojo directly.

“Time to end the joke, let me explain,” Satoru Gojo sidestepped, making way for the door of the orphanage behind the three of them. “This explanation is mainly for the two of you. Given Lin Qi accepted the task to strengthen Yukinoshita and…”

“I’m Hachiman, Hachiman Hikigaya,” the dead-fish-eyed boy obediently revealed his name.

“And both of your abilities make this place suitable.”

Satoru Gojo suddenly pointed at Hachiman Hikigaya and asked, “Hey hey! Question! What exactly is a cursed spirit?”

“Uh? Ask me?” The question was too simple, Hachiman Hikigaya answered slowly after a brief pause, “A monster born from negative emotions in humans…”

“That’s roughly correct, more accurately speaking, it’s a gathering of cursed energy leaked out of human negative thoughts, seems like your teacher hasn’t done a great job.”

When Satoru Gojo started explaining the objective, Lin Qi returned control of her body to Yukinoshita Yukino. She couldn’t help but retort when she heard Satoru Gojo’s mocking words, “But I’m a hands-on type.”

Satoru Gojo shrugged and then looked at Hachiman again, “Now, here comes the real challenge.”

“A lot of people dislike cockroaches, right? Afraid of such disgusting creatures as well, then cursed spirits resembling cockroaches could also be formed,” he pointed a thumb at the dead-fish-eyed boy. “Suppose these cockroach-like cursed spirits are eliminated, what do you think will happen next?”

“Eliminated…” Hachiman Hikigaya froze, beginning to ponder.

Yukinoshita Yukino quickly understood and realized, “Cockroach-like cursed spirits could be eradicated, but those who despise them remain; new ones will arise.”

“That’s right.” Satoru Gojo confirmed her understanding before turning around to face the desolate orphanage, arms in pockets, “Just the same.”

“In ancient times, this region was a mass grave; countless bodies lie beneath, and in modernity, this orphanage was constructed atop vast negative emotions, thus generating continuous cursed spirits, no matter how much rebuilding takes place.”

“High Specials send people here regularly to clean up these cursed spirits; while the newly spawned ones aren’t strong individually, their volume makes this place ideal for training.”

Yukinoshita Yukino seemed lost in thought, then suddenly posed a question, “If cursed spirits endlessly appear, jujutsu sorcerers will perpetually eradicate them, isn’t this addressing symptoms rather than causes?”

“Surely there must be a definitive solution?”

Following the girl’s query, she noticed Satoru Gojo paused, half of his face obscured by his eye patch, making it impossible to discern his expression.

“Theoretically…”

Lin Qi was about to answer Yukinoshita Yukino’s question when it was interrupted by Satoru Gojo.

“Perhaps there is a definitive solution, but for now, we must work with what we have.”

“Now, it’s time to start the cleaning activity.”

After school, then become a jujutsu sorcerer.
