Heavenly Restriction User of the Gojo Clan: I Refuse to Be Cut in Half Chapter 25: Rejected? (BONUS)

I didn't expect it... Gojo Satoshi, you actually used a cursed tool to take down Shinsuke. This was beyond my expectations.

As soone bound by Heavenly Restriction, are you focusing on developing your physical strength instead?

I have to admit, that's a solid choice. Cursed tools are valuable assets... Maybe I should start collecting so myself.

Toji narrowed his eyes as he observed Satoshi from the training grounds.

The battle just now had made one thing clear to everyone: the cursed tool in Satoshi's hands was terrifyingly powerful.

But Toji knew better.

Satoshi himself was just as formidable.

Even if he hadn't used Sode no Shirayuki to instantly kill Shinsuke, Toji was certain that Satoshi's raw physical ability alone would have been enough to defeat him, especially given Shinsuke's overconfidence.

Do you want to be my friend? I acknowledge you, Gojo Satoshi.

Toji smirked and turned away, dark amusent flickering in his eyes.

A new friend, huh?

Perhaps... a special cursed tool like that would be better suited in my hands.

The onlookers processed the battle in silence.

But ultimately, their emotions all converged into one overwhelming realization.

The Gojo family, wielding two Six Eyes, is destined to dominate the sorcerer world.

The Zenin family had lost a future prodigy to a so-called "fake Six Eyes" before Satoru even made a move.

It was clear.

In terms of potential, the Zenin clan could no longer compare to the Gojo family.

And as for the Kamo clan, another of the Three Great Families...

They could barely produce a decent Blood Manipulation user these days.

If things continued at this rate, it wouldn't be long before their influence faded entirely.

The path forward was obvious, align with the Gojo family.

With two Six Eyes users and control over the mysterious cursed tool in Satoshi's hands, the Gojo clan had already surpassed the other two families.

If they alone possessed this new type of cursed tool, the Gojo clan wouldn't just be a leader in the jujutsu world.

They could rule it.

And so, many powerful factions began investigating the creator of this powerful cursed tool.

That was when they discovered sothing unbelievable.

The forger of this weapon was none other than Gojo Satoshi himself.

How was that possible?

A six-year-old child had forged such a masterpiece?

Even more terrifying...

The Zanpakutō he created could not only shift forms but also produce an entirely new type of cursed technique.

An ability unlike anything recorded in jujutsu history.

"First Dance: White Moon!"

The na of that technique would be etched into the history of sorcery forever.

At this mont, everyone wanted Gojo Satoshi for themselves.

---

So people were irreplaceable.

Like Satoru, who had Six Eyes and a once-in-a-lifeti sorcerer talent.

But Satoshi?

He was different.

A genius cursed tool forger was sothing that could be replicated.

If Satoshi continued to create more cursed tools like Sode no Shirayuki, any sorcerer clan could massively increase their strength in a short period of ti.

Together, Gojo Satoru and Gojo Satoshi were a terrifying duo.

---

The gathering at the Gojo estate ca to an end.

With Shinsuke frozen solid by "First Dance: White Moon," Zenin Ogi stepped forward, acknowledged Satoshi's victory, and finally freed Shinsuke from the ice.

Humiliated, the Zenin clan wasted no ti leaving the Gojo estate.

By the ti Satoshi regained his focus, Toji was already gone.

Damn... I didn't achieve my most important goal this ti.

Forget it. Toji might be gone, but at least I can still introduce Satoru to so future teammates.

Taking Satoru with him, Satoshi went to find Shoko and Yuto.

At Shoko's request—"Can I touch Sode no Shirayuki?"—the four of them ended up bonding and successfully forming new friendships.

These connections would be valuable.

After all—

The strongest healer in the future and the father of a future Special Grade sorcerer were now part of Satoshi's network.

No matter what, this gathering had been a worthwhile success.

---

"Satoshi, this whole event was so boring."

Walking back to their rooms, Satoru sighed, complaining as if he had suffered through a painful chore.

The whole ti, he had just been a spectator.

If he had known Satoshi was going to be so cool, he would have jumped in and shown off himself.

Now he regretted letting Satoshi fight Shinsuke.

"Well, this kind of event isn't ant to be entertaining. But at least we t so new friends, right? Okkotsu Yuto and Ieiri Shoko—Satoru, you should treasure them."

Satoshi nudged Satoru, subtly reminding him.

He didn't want Satoru to beco a lone wolf in the future.

Strength alone wasn't enough.

Sotis, companions couldn't help soone beco stronger but they could provide emotional support.

In the future, Satoru would et Geto Suguru, reconnect with Shoko, and be guided by Yaga Masamichi.

These relationships would shape his journey.

Maybe...

If Satoru learned to trust and cooperate with others sooner, instead of relying on his own power, so tragedies could be avoided.

"Alright, alright, I get it! Geez, Satoshi, you're starting to nag like an old man."

Satoru shrugged, glancing at Satoshi with a teasing smirk.

Then, as if realizing sothing, he raised an eyebrow and asked playfully.

"But... wasn't your real goal this ti to befriend the Zenin's Heavenly Restriction user?"

"Wait—are you telling you actually got rejected?"

Satoru's voice was full of amusent, and his grin widened.

Watching Satoshi's face darken slightly, he burst into laughter.
