The Ten Shadows Technique is a secret Cursed Technique of the Zenin Family, and also the most advanced Cursed Technique in the Jujutsu World regarding Shikigami. The Shikigami it summons change and evolve with the user's Cursed Energy and Cursed Energy output.
On this basis, the ability to summon multiple Shikigami simultaneously is also a critical factor in judging a Ten Shadows Technique user's skill. At least for now, Fushiguro gumi can only summon two Shikigami at the sa ti. Therefore, the battle strategy for a Ten Shadows Technique user revolves around intelligently combining the two Shikigami on the field with his own combat.
However, in addition to fighting in conjunction with Shikigami, recently, or rather, so ti ago, he intentionally began studying Barrier Techniques. His goal was to comprehend the pinnacle of Jujutsu in the near future.
Fushiguro gumi gravely watched the Special Grade Cursed Spirit before him, which had devoured an unknown number of Sukuna's Fingers. He wasn't sure whether this Special Grade Cursed Spirit was stronger or weaker than the octopus Cursed Spirit his father fought years ago. However, one thing was certain: both this one and that one were stronger than his current self.
Therefore... I must surpass my limits now!
Fushiguro gumi's hands, which had been forming the hand signs for summoning Shikigami, relaxed. To an observer, he seed to have entered a state similar to zoning out.
Seeing this, the Special Grade Cursed Spirit beside him imdiately revealed a sinister grin. It lunged towards Fushiguro gumi, simultaneously extending its evil claws, which could slice through iron like mud.
The mont it leaped, black nails, like lasers, pierced its back from a distance. However, such an attack could only inflict the most basic damage, failing to forcibly stop its movent.
"Damn it!"
Nobara Kugisaki, who had launched the nails, pressed her lips together. Although the suddenness of the situation ant she hadn't maximized her Cursed Energy output, the fact that the Cursed Spirit didn't even turn to look at her after being hit made Nobara feel humiliated by a re Cursed Spirit.
What made her even more uneasy than her ineffective output was Fushiguro gumi's inexplicable behavior. It couldn't possibly be that he was truly zoning out during a fight, but if he didn't act soon, he would surely be hit by the Cursed Spirit's attack.
Fushiguro... move!
Nobara, holding her hamr, rapidly gathered dark Cursed Energy as she rushed towards Fushiguro gumi. Her gaze was fixed on the Cursed Spirit, which had raised its sharp claws high.
Three seconds.
Two seconds.
One second.
Swish!!!
The Special Grade Cursed Spirit's sharp claws swung down from above. The Black and White Divine Dogs, guarding Fushiguro gumi on both sides, blocked the fatal blow with their bodies. Black Cursed Energy residue, like rain, splattered onto Fushiguro gumi.
Just as the Special Grade Cursed Spirit was about to gather strength for a second attack, a strange light suddenly burst forth in the eyes of the seemingly zoned-out Fushiguro gumi. His facial expression entered the frenzied state unique to powerful individuals.
Fushiguro gumi clasped his hands together, his two index fingers raised side-by-side, wrists two to three inches apart, and both thumbs bent and crossed three tis. The four fingers on his left hand, clasped within, represented the Four Great Elents of sentient beings, while the four fingers on his right hand, clasped within, represented the Four Great Elents of the Buddhist realm. This signified using the Buddhist realm's Four Great Elents to harmonize the Four Great Elents of sentient beings, thereby healing all diseases and obstacles. This hand seal is called the Fundantal Mudra of Bhaisajyaguru.
"Domain Expansion: Chira Shadow Garden!!!"
Imdiately, a large mass of shadows, like a swampy mire, ford beneath Fushiguro gumi's feet. Because it was a spur-of-the-mont decision by Fushiguro gumi, who still lacked sufficient mastery of Barrier Techniques, the Domain Expansion currently manifested was incomplete.
As a modern Domain, it did not possess any powerful sure-hit kill techniques. It rely offered debuffs to others and greatly enhanced his own Cursed Technique.
That alone was enough.
"It worked!!!"
Fushiguro gumi's face broke into an excited smile. Within the temporarily constructed Domain, he could not only increase the number of Shikigami present simultaneously, but also move flexibly using shadows with greater freedom.
[Nue]
[Tiger's Nest]
[Gyu-gyu]
Without even forming a hand seal, at Fushiguro gumi's thought, the three major Shikigami he had successfully tad from his Ten Shadows Technique simultaneously appeared within the Domain.
The Shikigami Gyu-gyu fiercely charged towards the Special Grade Cursed Spirit. The Special Grade Cursed Spirit, in response, did not choose to evade but directly collided with Gyu-gyu.
Gyu-gyu itself is a Shikigami characterized by its imnse strength. Its power, enhanced within the Domain, could be described as terrifying. Even though the opponent was a Special Grade Cursed Spirit that had devoured Sukuna's Finger, it was still sent reeling backward by Gyu-gyu's charge.
Just as the Special Grade Cursed Spirit tried to break free from Gyu-gyu's charge, the Shikigami Nue, circling in the sky, unleashed a series of attacks accompanied by rumbling thunder. The Shikigami Tiger's Nest, moreover, had already circled behind the Special Grade Cursed Spirit, tearing at its body with its wide-open, fanged mouth.
Gyu-gyu in front.
Tiger's Nest behind.
Nue circling in the air.
A ferocious expression appeared on the Special Grade Cursed Spirit's face. It suddenly released a Cursed Energy shockwave, which from the perspective of Cursed Energy manipulation, was an extre waste. This blast forcibly sent Gyu-gyu in front and Tiger's Nest behind flying.
However, before the Special Grade Cursed Spirit could even be happy for a second, Fushiguro gumi leaped from the shadowy ground in front of it, landing a direct punch imbued with dense Cursed Energy to the Special Grade Cursed Spirit's chest.
Bang!!!
A Cursed Energy reaction, like an exploding bomb, emanated from the Special Grade Cursed Spirit's body. Although a Cursed Spirit could heal its physical body quite easily, each healing instance was equivalent to self-inflicting a reduction in its true Cursed Spirit health.
After multiple attacks within Fushiguro gumi's Domain, the Special Grade Cursed Spirit's body seed like a flickering candle in the wind. Yet, even so, it still possessed the ability to retaliate.
It endured the damage from Fushiguro gumi's Cursed Energy punch, not healing its physical state first, but instead extending its sharp claws, intending to launch a surprise attack on Fushiguro gumi, abandoning its defense.
At this range, the Special Grade Cursed Spirit was confident that its attack would hit Fushiguro gumi. Even if it didn't kill him, it would severely cripple him, and the tide of battle would turn once again.
Yes, it should have been so.
But, he was not alone.
"Did you forget about ?!"
Nobara Kugisaki flashed behind the Special Grade Cursed Spirit. The hamr in her hand had already gathered her maximum Cursed Energy output. Her eyes, like stars in the night sky, focused intensely as she unleashed this strike.
[Black Flash]!!!
The mont Nobara's hamr struck the Special Grade Cursed Spirit's back, a dark lightning bolt roared forth. Nobara had already concentrated her maximum Cursed Energy output into this strike, and now, with the amplification of Black Flash, the power of this blow beca even greater.
The Special Grade Cursed Spirit's body showed signs of disintegration. Within the strange space inside its body, where Sukuna's Fingers resided, Sukuna, with only four fingers remaining, watched everything silently.
He raised one of his hands, seemingly forming a Binding Vow with the disintegrating Cursed Spirit.
