"Thank you, I'm fine. Although I'm not entirely sure about the current situation, you, big sister, must be here to deal with this monster, right? Don't worry about , I'll run away."
After the Binding Vow on Itadori Yuji was sliced apart by the hastily arrived i i, he stretched his limbs. Before i i could speak, he made a move as if ready to flee at any mont, saying this to i i.
Looking at the straightforward and frank Itadori Yuji, i i's "Are you alright?" which was already at her throat and about to be uttered, was forcefully swallowed back.
She turned, wielding her long-handled broadaxe, to face Hanami, who was watching them both warily, a slight smile playing on her lips.
"Oh no, young man, I didn't co to deal with this Cursed Spirit. I specifically ca to protect you, young man. If you get hurt or even die, I'll have to pay a huge penalty for breach of contract~" i i said with a smile.
As a Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer, i i's Cursed Technique gave her an advantage in reconnaissance, so most of her contracted missions involved scouting.
These missions were simpler than protection tasks, and the commission fees were substantial. Therefore, most of the missions i i took on were reconnaissance-based, with protection missions being less than one in ten.
However, Chinatsu, her biggest patron, activated the sacred and incomparable "Money Ability," instantly breaking through i i's psychological defenses without any resistance.
At the sa ti, the massive commission fee also implied an even larger penalty if the commissioned task failed.
Wasted ti.
Damage to professional reputation.
Bankruptcy of personal coffers.
These were all things i i would absolutely not allow to happen!
While i i was watching Hanami, Hanami was also watching i i. At this mont, i i was in full-power mode, and the level of Cursed Energy she was emitting was clearly perceived by Hanami, like an open-book exam.
Very strong... but not as strong as !
After confirming this, Hanami used her perception ability to scan the vicinity, and after confirming there were no ambushes nearby, she knew i i was trying to stall for ti, waiting for reinforcents.
In that case, let's end this quickly!
Hanami opened her mouth, and a gust of air was expelled from it. Simultaneously, she stretched her arms out to the sides, and thick vines erupted from the ground, charging fiercely towards i i and Itadori Yuji.
Typically, Jujutsu Sorcerers and Cursed Spirits manipulate trees by infusing Cursed Energy into physical trees and then controlling their deformation.
But Hanami was different; at her level, she didn't need physical trees at all. She could instantly manifest tough, thick trees purely with Cursed Energy.
Facing the thick vines attacking head-on, i i infused Cursed Energy into the long-handled broadaxe-shaped Cursed Tool in her hand.
In i i's hands, what seed like an unwieldy long-handled broadaxe was wielded with surprising agility. Under her sharp slashes, the thick vines coming from the front were instantly shredded.
Hanami wasn't surprised by this; if a Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer couldn't even manage this much, that would be truly terrible.
Just as i i was continuously and rapidly dealing with the frontal vine attacks, blocking them in front of Itadori Yuji, a tough vine suddenly erged from the ground behind her and Itadori Yuji, attempting to bind Itadori Yuji and forcibly drag him away.
i i's eyes flickered, and the crows circling in the air, having waited for a long ti, instantly received i i's command.
They transford into suicide bombers, spinning 360 degrees before rapidly descending.
One of them landed on the vine attempting to bind Itadori Yuji, piercing and obliterating it.
The remaining few locked onto Hanami, sharply rushing towards Hanami's head.
Watching these rapidly approaching suicide bombers, an ominous premonition suddenly surged in Hanami's heart. She imdiately reduced the frequency of her attacks on i i, diverting so vines to try and shoot down these suicide bombers in the air.
However... the vines rushing upwards were all pierced without exception. Although Hanami quickly adjusted her position to dodge most of the suicide bombers, she was still hit by a few.
Among the four Disaster Cursed Spirits, Hanami's frontal combat ability was relatively weak, specializing in perception, stealth, control, and defense.
Yet, even such a functional tank showed a hint of discomposure after being struck by i i's crow suicide bombers, with several shallow but distinct craters blasted into her tough skin.
Hanami's face was distorted with rage.
i i was slightly surprised.
Her technique, nad [Kamikaze], involved releasing the weak Cursed Energy restrictions on the flock of crows, allowing them to sacrifice their lives to infinitely boost their attack power.
She believed she had encountered quite a few enemies and known many friends, but she still thought that only Gojo Satoru and Chinatsu, who possessed Limitless Defense, could withstand a "Kamikaze" attack head-on.
Now, she had to add this Cursed Spirit to that list.
i i's raw strength was definitely inferior to Hanami's, but after just one round, Hanami also realized that a quick victory was impossible. Human Jujutsu Sorcerers truly had so tricks up their sleeves.
So... give up?
Hanami fell into a brief contemplation, and when she recovered from it, her fighting spirit was reignited, and it was soaring.
Itadori Yuji was very important for the future of Cursed Spirits; he absolutely could not fall into the hands of Jujutsu Sorcerers at this ti. He must be snatched back!!!
Hanami clenched her fists, and her Cursed Energy clearly erupted. Feeling Hanami's "power-up" in her serious state, beads of sweat gradually appeared on i i's faintly smiling face.
Because she understood what Hanami was preparing to do. After all, mobilizing all Cursed Energy either ant preparing to unleash a super-enhanced skill in a normal state, or preparing to unleash the ultimate secret of Cursed Technique.
And at this mont, Hanami was preparing to use both!
She crouched down, placing one palm on the ground. As her palm touched the ground, the flowers, grass, and trees in this area of the school's back mountain instantly showed signs of wilting.
Converting the life force of flowers, grass, and trees into Cursed Energy was one of Hanami's abilities. This Cursed Energy, converted from stolen life, would not flow back to herself, but would eventually converge on the "flower offering" on her left shoulder, from which it would release a golden, wide-area Cursed Energy shockwave.
Seeing this, i i imdiately prepared to have the remaining crows circling in the air all transform into suicide bombers and attack Hanami. Unfortunately, she was a step too late; her ntal link with the crows was isolated and severed.
Hanami, who had placed her hand on the ground, retracted it. She held both hands on the sa horizontal plane, forming a special Buddhist hand seal.
