Leaving aside Might Guy opening the Eight Gates in the neighboring Naruto section, seeing Uraume, who was currently enhanced by a Binding Vow, Chinatsu couldn't help but think of Kashimo Hajime after his Cursed Technique was released.
A Peashooter?
An Ice Shooter?
Just as Chinatsu thought this, Uraume in front of her truly seemed like a reappearance of Kashimo Hajime after his Cursed Technique was released. He leaned back, opened his mouth wide, took a deep breath, and violently spat it out toward Chinatsu.
Although the bone-chilling cold air did not condense into a smooth projectile, it did form countless sharp, crystal-clear ice shards, which from a distance looked like numerous tiny pellets.
Although it wasn't a Domain Expansion, Chinatsu felt as if she had entered a domain called "Plants vs. Zombies."
Uraume was the Ice Shooter, protecting Sukuna behind him.
Chinatsu was the rushing zombie, aiming to take Sukuna out.
Under the enhancement of the "Binding Vow," Limitless Defense was forcibly breached, preventing Chinatsu from directly ignoring Uraume's attack.
However, Chinatsu was not useless just because she had lost Limitless Defense. Facing Uraume's attack, she could still easily parry and quickly counterattack.
"Cursed Technique Reversal: Red!"
Chinatsu focused her fingers into a gun shape, and a crimson projectile rapidly condensed and shot toward Uraume.
Just as the projectile reached Uraume and was about to hit him, the biting cold instantly created a solid wall of ice in front of him, causing the impact projectile to detonate prematurely upon hitting the ice wall, resulting in a loud roar.
Uraume stumbled back a few steps in slight disarray, but once he stabilized, he showed Chinatsu a proud and smug expression, as if indicating that he was now no less capable than she was.
The high-level Binding Vow, exchanged for a great sacrifice, not only achieved a guaranteed hit effect similar to a Domain but also strengthened the Cursed Technique and even physical power.
If the previous Uraume was "Semi-Special Grade," then the Eight Gates Uraume now would undoubtedly be rated as "Special Grade" if placed among the Modern Jujutsu Sorcerers of the Jujutsu World.
His face was beaming with a smug smile, bitter cold air wrapped around his entire body, and filled with surging fighting spirit, he charged toward Chinatsu.
One minute later.
Uraume, sporting a bruised and swollen face, flopped onto the ground with a "thud!" The surging fighting spirit that had previously filled him was completely gone, replaced by an expression full of existential doubt.
What... just happened?
His memory was fuzzy and sputtering; all he could clearly recall was charging toward Chinatsu with high spirits. The opponent neither adopted a fighting stance nor launched an attack involving Cursed Energy output.
She raised both hands and formed a hand sign.
A Do... Domain?
Uraume tried hard to recall everything he had experienced within the Domain, only to find that what happened after he entered her Domain could only be described as chaotic; it was impossible to articulate exactly what he had gone through.
What exactly is the effect of her Domain... Uraume knew he could no longer stop Chinatsu's advance, but given the chance, he hoped to analyze the effects of Chinatsu's Domain and relay this information to his master.
But he couldn't figure it out, truly couldn't figure it out. He was so troubled he was nearly driven to tears, yet he still couldn't grasp a single clue.
Chinatsu, having deployed and dismissed her Domain, ignored the weakened Uraume on the ground—who was beginning to pay the price for deploying the Binding Vow—and walked step by step toward the building.
Although she had entered "Cursed Technique Reversal," her Rikugan / Six Eyes weren't blind. In her sight, Sukuna was still some distance away from the complete success of his Incarnation Transformation Ritual, meaning she still had time to stop him.
Just as Chinatsu took a step forward, preparing to stop Sukuna's Incarnation Transformation Ritual, the ominous Cursed Energy emanating from Sukuna suddenly surged, according to the observations of Chinatsu's Rikugan / Six Eyes.
If described using a percentage progress bar, it was as if the process, which was just around 80%, suddenly jumped to 99%.
That's truly outrageous!!!
Although Chinatsu could roughly deduce how Sukuna managed this, it must certainly be the trick of the Jujutsu World's omnipotent plot device: the [Binding Vow].
It was probably something like increasing the risk of failure to boost the speed of the physical transformation, and if it genuinely failed, so be it—but how could an old geezer like Sukuna fail at this point?
One must know that the halo surrounding the villains in the original work of jujutsu kaisen is not necessarily weaker than that of the protagonists. In the original work's plot, the villains always thrived while the protagonist group constantly suffered setbacks.
It truly makes one wonder if the final ending will be Sukuna and Kenjaku successfully defeating the protagonist group who constantly obstructed them, thanks to their relentless efforts.
One slashes down all of humanity.
The other sacrifices all of humanity.
jujutsu kaisen, BAD END.
If this were any other manga author, Chinatsu would genuinely express disbelief, as this is a manga serialized in *Weekly JUMP*, which mostly features mainstream shonen manga.
But if it's the mangaka of jujutsu kaisen... Chinatsu's internal complaints were endless, yet despite all her dissatisfaction, she still had to face the reality of being in the world of jujutsu kaisen and the immediate danger she was in.
Suddenly, an almost invisible, sharp slashing attack sliced open the walls of the building from the inside, and countless massive fragments of reinforced concrete collapsed and fell from one corner of the tower from top to bottom.
A robust individual with two faces, four arms, and a large, fanged mouth growing on his abdomen walked out from the ruins of that corner of the building.
This person was Sukuna.
Sukuna's physical transformation being complete was within Chinatsu's expectations, but two of his four arms were actually holding special Cursed Tools.
In his right hand, Kamutoke.
In his left hand, Hiten.
These were the two Cursed Tools he wielded a thousand years ago when he swept across battlefields without defeat.
Chinatsu had almost no memory of these, because the manga had not updated to the appearance of these Cursed Tools before she transmigrated; she had only vaguely seen the silhouette of this Cursed Tool on the cover page of the manga.
Sukuna spread his four arms and tilted his head slightly, using his original body to feel the sensation of being alive. Although he knew his servant Uraume had fulfilled his vital duty and was close to death, this did not hinder his current feeling of immense pleasure.
Sukuna looking down from above.
Chinatsu looking up.
Which side is the challenger?
Which side is the victor?
Will this battle even have an end?
Chinatsu, in poor condition, forced herself to concentrate. She took a deep breath, forcefully swung one arm horizontally, and shouted for the Jujutsu Sorcerers still lingering in the surrounding area to evacuate quickly.
Because in the upcoming battle, Chinatsu could not afford to look out for them. She needed to dedicate her entire focus to confronting the King of Curses, who was hailed as the strongest Jujutsu Sorcerer in history...
