Gojo Satoru took leave to break through the limits of his Jujutsu, and Chinatsu naturally wouldn't slack off during her leave either. While the approval went through, the reason for her leave still deserved to be mocked.
As for what Chinatsu was actually going to do during her leave, she was naturally going to find her 'old friend' whom she hadn't seen in a long time.
Inside a certain junior high school.
A 14-year-old third-year junior high student with spiky hair dominated this junior high school and the surrounding area for several kilometers, not by anyone else, but by his iron fists.
"Fushiguro-bro, you worked hard today!!!"
After junior high school ended, a young man named Megumi Fushiguro walked out with his hands in his pockets. On his left and right were fellow students who were clearly delinquents, bowing and scraping until Megumi Fushiguro left the school area.
Of course, if one thought that was the end, they would be gravely mistaken. Not long after Megumi Fushiguro left the school area, he encountered adult delinquents.
They leaned against the dimly lit street wall, a cigarette dangling from their mouths as they exhaled plumes of smoke into the air.
Passersby coughed repeatedly, choked by the smoke they exhaled. They wanted to complain but were silenced by the delinquents' glares, swallowing the words stuck in their throats.
Megumi Fushiguro, hands in his pockets, saw this scene. He frowned slightly and walked in front of the group of delinquents.
The delinquents had just lifted their heads, ready to start trouble, but Megumi Fushiguro's even more intimidating glare made their legs go soft.
"Fu... Fushiguro-bro!"
"I told you not to call me that. And you guys, stop doing such meaningless things. If I see you again, watch out, I'll..."
"Understood!!!"
Before Megumi Fushiguro could finish his sentence, the adult delinquents turned and fled, quickly disappearing from Megumi Fushiguro's sight.
The passersby who witnessed this scene all looked surprised. Megumi Fushiguro merely turned his head casually, and the pedestrians on the road quickened their pace, afraid to make eye contact with Megumi Fushiguro.
Although he had originally destroyed the delinquent organizations in the vicinity out of kindness, after he finished these things, the larger general public became more afraid of him than the individual delinquent groups.
Megumi Fushiguro couldn't help but click his tongue, then turned and continued walking towards his home, quickly arriving there.
"I'm home."
Megumi Fushiguro opened the door from outside while symbolically saying this. It was a custom in this country; people would say this phrase whether anyone was home or not.
Of course, Megumi Fushiguro knew someone was definitely home.
Although his father, who used to wander around, suddenly returned a few years ago and hadn't disappeared again, he had gone from one extreme to another. Megumi Fushiguro saw him almost every day and strongly suspected his father had become unemployed.
However, the idea of him being unemployed was hard to sustain in his mind, because Megumi Fushiguro had observed some details about his father and found that his father might be very rich, even extremely rich... Megumi Fushiguro calmly walked from the doorway towards the living room. Before he reached the living room, he felt someone sitting on the sofa, and he naturally assumed it was his father.
But when he walked into the living room and looked towards the sofa, he couldn't help but freeze.
It wasn't Dad... "Megumi, nice to meet you~"
Chinatsu, lounging on the sofa, smiled and waved at the stunned Megumi Fushiguro. The person Megumi Fushiguro had expected, Fushiguro Toji, then slowly emerged from the kitchen, carrying two cups of hot coffee.
"Megumi? Where's Tsumiki?"
"Club activities. I came back first by myself."
Megumi Fushiguro quickly recovered. He replied to his father's question coldly as usual, then politely bowed slightly to Chinatsu. After greeting her, he walked straight into his room.
Fushiguro Toji sighed helplessly, looking at Megumi Fushiguro, whom he judged to be in a rebellious phase.
"You've seen my embarrassment."
Fushiguro Toji carried the two cups of hot coffee and sat on the sofa opposite Chinatsu, handing one of the cups to Chinatsu.
After completing this most basic superficial ritual, Fushiguro Toji's face instantly darkened, revealing a serious expression.
"Do you need something from me now? Are you preparing to clean out the Jujutsu World Higher-ups?" Fushiguro Toji asked in a low voice.
Chinatsu waved her hand, denying Fushiguro Toji's guess. It wasn't the right time yet, and besides, if they were to start a cleanup, Fushiguro Toji wouldn't even be necessary. Chinatsu had better methods to instantly annihilate the entire Jujutsu World Higher-ups.
"Although it's not yet time for us to overthrow the Jujutsu World, a group of guys who want to overthrow Jujutsu... or rather, the entire world, have finally started to act recently."
Chinatsu crossed her arms in a chuunibyou fashion, tilting her head slightly downwards, actually setting herself up as a riddler with great interest.
But facing Chinatsu's enthusiasm, Fushiguro Toji showed no appreciation. He stared intently at Chinatsu, who was pretending to be a riddler, eventually breaking Chinatsu's composure.
"You really have no sense of romance."
"Get to the point, I'm listening."
Chinatsu lay back on the sofa, completely uninterested, looking at Fushiguro Toji opposite her. She then had no choice but to tell Fushiguro Toji about Kenjaku's affairs as concisely as possible.
Although Chinatsu's side still had ample combat power on the surface, it was better to be safe than sorry. Who knew if Ryomen Sukuna would pull out some extremely outrageous trump card, or if Kenjaku would pull out a hidden backup energy source to reverse the situation.
In short, Chinatsu had to be cautious!
Upon hearing Chinatsu's words, Fushiguro Toji merely curled his lips slightly, displaying an expression of "Is that all it is?" and then, like Chinatsu, leaned back on the sofa in an almost lying position.
"Don't worry, helping you is also helping myself. Moreover, I owe you two favors," Fushiguro Toji said calmly.
Two favors.
The first favor was Chinatsu's mercy of not killing Fushiguro Toji during his Jujutsu High days. As for the second favor, it appeared a year ago when Chinatsu's intervention prevented a tragedy from befalling his daughter, Tsumiki Fushiguro.
Tsumiki Fushiguro, on a certain night during her third year of junior high, went to the Eight-Eighty Bridge with two of her classmates, where she encountered cursed erosion and fell into a coma.
While Megumi Fushiguro possessed the aptitude to become a vessel for Ryomen Sukuna, Tsumiki Fushiguro also possessed the aptitude to become a vessel for the incarnated body of a female Jujutsu Sorcerer from a thousand years ago.
After that night, Tsumiki sank into the depths of her heart, and a woman named 'Yorozu' occupied Tsumiki's physical body...
