"Looks like I win again," Ming said triumphantly, looking down at Suguru Geto and Satoru Gojo, who were sprawled out on the ground.
"Unfair. I don't accept this," Suguru Geto said, his face twisting in mock frustration.
"You two are ridiculous. One has the Sharingan, the other has the Six Eyes. How am I supposed to fight that? Especially you, Ming—Satoru and I threw everything at you, and you still dodged it all," Geto complained.
Although Masamichi Yaga had banned the use of techniques during this session, the Sharingan and Six Eyes were passive traits that were simply "cheat codes" compared to ordinary humans. They were especially broken in Taijutsu—the Sharingan's insane dynamic vision combined with its ability to copy physical movements made Ming a nightmare to deal with.
After a month of training, Ming had mastered various weapons and styles. He learned so fast that even Gojo and Geto working together struggled to take him down in pure hand-to-hand combat.
"Alright, alright, stop overthinking it. Training is over. Let's go think about where to go have some fun," Ming said, pulling Gojo and Geto up and slinging his arms around their shoulders.
"Tch." Geto brushed Ming's hand off, looking annoyed. Out of the three, he felt the most "bullied" during these spars.
"Come on, Suguru, don't be like that. We're best friends! Look at Satoru, he's not having a mid-life crisis over it," Ming teased.
"Don't forget, I won last time," Gojo said dismissively. Since the last spar allowed Jujutsu, and Ming's most broken abilities were restricted, Gojo had managed to take the win.
"That's only because I didn't use the Mangekyo," Ming retorted, not backing down.
"So what? Before that, I was the one who won," Geto chimed in.
"That doesn't count. I didn't use Kamui," Ming said, looking at Geto.
"And I didn't use 'Infinity'," Gojo added.
In their previous full-energy spar, Yaga had forbidden Gojo from using his absolute defense and Ming from using Kamui or Amaterasu. Susanoo was also off the table—unless Ming wanted to pull out a divine weapon, which was a bit much for a friendly match.
In that scenario, Gojo and Ming were swarmed by a literal army of low-level Cursed Spirits Geto had gathered to jam the Six Eyes. Without his passive defense, Gojo eventually lost, and Ming—with most of his "delete" buttons banned—found himself overwhelmed by sheer numbers. Since it was just a practice match, Ming eventually gave up when he couldn't reach Geto through the horde.
Gojo had won his specific round because Yaga allowed a partial use of Blue, which Geto and Ming (limited to base Sharingan and Taijutsu) couldn't counter. Even a "light" punch from Gojo reinforced with the precision of the Six Eyes and the attraction of Blue was more terrifying than a Black Flash from a normal sorcerer.
In reality, it was hard to rank them. If they fought for real, it would be a stalemate of monsters.
Ming's Cursed Energy was essentially bottomless, and his Sage Body recovered energy faster than he could spend it. Gojo's reserves were smaller than Ming's (relatively speaking—only Yuta Okkotsu and Sukuna surpassed him in total volume), but the Six Eyes made his consumption near-zero. Geto, meanwhile, was walking around with hundreds of "batteries" in the form of spirits.
While Geto's physical body was technically the "weakest" of the three, that was only in comparison to these two freaks. Against anyone else, Geto could probably win without even using his spirits.
"Alright, enough arguing. Let's talk business," Ming said. "Yaga-sensei is away today. We need to make the most of it."
"True. Shoko sent a message saying the teachers went to pick up some upperclassmen. Apparently, a Grade 1 spirit popped up and they all got hurt. Shoko had to go heal them," Geto said.
"Oh? Is it Utahime and the others? They're really weak, huh? Getting hurt by a single Grade 1?" Gojo said flatly.
"True, but it's not our problem," Ming added. "So, how about the beach?"
"Great idea!"
"I'm in."
The three were in total agreement.
"Should you teleport us, or should I?" Gojo asked.
"Neither, obviously! Why would we go to the beach if we're not going to enjoy the trip? We're going there to relax and admire the... scenery," Ming paused, then continued. "Teleporting there ruins the vibe. Right, Suguru?"
"Yeah, the journey is half the fun," Geto agreed.
"Nice one, Suguru! Not like Satoru over here. Poor 'Young Master Gojo' doesn't understand the simple pleasures of a normal family," Ming mocked.
"Hey! You bastard! Suguru, let go of me, I'm gonna kill him!" Gojo yelled.
"Go ahead, Suguru, let him go! I want to see if he can actually touch me. Who has the most wins again?" Ming said arrogantly.
"Dammit, Ming!"
"Idiot Satoru!"
The two were held back by Geto, their foreheads pressed together, the beautiful Six Eyes and the blood-red Sharingan glaring at each other with sparks flying.
After their usual bickering, they packed their bags and boarded a plane. After a long journey, they finally arrived at the Japanese coast.
Meanwhile, back at the school:
Sigh.
"What's wrong, Sensei?" Shoko asked listlessly, a lollipop in her mouth.
"I'm just wondering if those three have leveled the school yet while I'm gone," Yaga said with a sigh.
Thinking of the "Three Kings of Chaos," Shoko felt a shiver run down her spine. "Probably not... hopefully," she said. She tried texting them, but no one replied.
At that moment, the three were sunbathing on the beach.
"Hey, Satoru... no matter how you look at it, we're way more handsome than him. Why is Suguru more popular with the girls than us?" Ming said indignantly. As best friends, seeing one thrive while the others were ignored was unacceptable.
"Right? I'm clearly the best-looking one here," Gojo added.
"Pfft, please. I'm definitely the most handsome," Ming countered confidently. With his height (190 cm)—which made him a giant in a country where the average was much lower—and his sharp features, he was used to standing out. However, he ignored his "don't come near me" aura. He only showed his true personality to those he acknowledged, like Gojo, Geto, and Shoko. To everyone else, he was a freezing cold statue.
(Note: At this point in high school, Gojo is around 186 cm and Geto is around 182 cm.)
