Narcissistic Man

Feeling thirsty, Eiji took out a bottle of lemon-infused water stored in the Storage Ring, then sat down and started drinking.

*Gulp... Gulp... Gulp...*

"Ahhh... My fatigue has lessened a bit, but my head still aches due to running out of Cursed Energy."

Checking his body condition, he decided to lie back on the ground, uncaring about his dirty clothes.

"Sukuna, Mahoraga, Kenjaku... Among them, Kenjaku poses the lowest threat. Despite having an Inherited Cursed Technique from possessing others' bodies, the fact that he lost to two Six Eyes bearer in the past and didn't dare to confront Satoru Nii-san directly indicates his strength is not on par with Sukuna."

Closing his eyes, Eiji accessed Lin Fan's memories, analyzed them, and drew conclusions.

"If I were to fight Mahoraga, my victory percentage would be 80% in a one-on-one condition. But if, like Satoru Nii-san having to face Mahoraga along with Agito and Sukuna, then... My winning percentage drops to only 35%."

If such a situation were to occur, Eiji was confident he could defeat Mahoraga. Of course, after that, he would be vulnerable to Sukuna applying Mahoraga's adaptations to his Limitless Technique.

"Mahoraga is the strongest Shikigami of the Zenin Family, never tamed by anyone. Even the Six Eyes bearer in the Keicho era was killed when fighting the head of the Zenin Family, who possessed the Ten Shadows Technique."

Eiji had read the history of the previous generations of Six Eyes users.

"As for defeating Sukuna... Tsk, I don't see a chance of winning."

Opening his eyes, Eiji clicked his tongue.

"As for Kashimo Hajime... He only lasted a few chapters against Sukuna. He's not worth considering."

After that, Eiji got up and left.

.....

The next day.

10 a.m.

Eiji walked aimlessly in Tokyo.

If he saw food that interested him, he would buy it.

Due to his supernatural physique, he wasn't worried about getting fat from eating too much. His metabolism converted the food into a source of energy.

"Aaaaahhh!!!"

Hearing that scream, Eiji turned and saw a woman going berserk on the side of the road, kicking a lamppost.

Pedestrians only glanced at the woman briefly and ignored her.

Eiji made sure there were no Cursed Spirits on the woman and then dismissed her like everyone else.

This wasn't the first time he had seen people behaving strangely on the streets.

Their actions were a result of accumulated workplace stress, vented in public places.

Japan had the highest stress levels in the world. In Japanese culture, people were often taught not to show negative emotions in public, leading to pent-up stress that could explode in the form of anger or aggressive behavior.

"I'm not a big fan of this crazy work culture in this country." Eiji said, observing an office worker venting stress on a trash can.

"Hm?"

Eiji turned south, his Six Eyes penetrating a vast distance. He then saw a Chinese man standing on top of a building, making provocative hand movements. After that, the other party left as if Eiji wasn't following.

"It's the first time I've met a killer of this kind. Since I'm free, I'll accompany him for a little play."

After saying that, Eiji followed the Chinese man.

The reason he was so sure the other party was a killer was that the intent to kill was not hidden at all and openly directed at him.

Finally, the two arrived at an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Tokyo.

"Ni hao (Hello). Kamiki Eiji."

The Chinese man greeted Eiji upon arrival.

"What do you want?"

"You're saying funny things. Shouldn't you already know?"

A greater intent to kill emanated from the Chinese man. Unfortunately, Eiji's expression remained calm as usual.

"Awesome. You're not afraid in front of me. Sorcerer in Japan aren't as bad as I thought. Of course, you're not as good as us Chinese Sorcerer."

"Stop. Are you inviting me just to hear you boast?"

Eiji wasn't surprised to see the other party's racist attitude toward Japan.

Many Chinese people disliked Japan and even acted racist. This was all due to nationalist or historical conflicts, especially regarding the controversy over Japanese history textbooks. Japanese history textbooks often downplayed or even legitimized war crimes committed by Japan during World War II, especially in China. This sparked anger and hatred among the Chinese people.

"Ahaha... You're right. I came here to take your eyes. After that, I'll challenge Gojo Satoru. With that, I'll prove that Six Eyes users are nothing, and Chinese Sorcerer are the strongest in the world!"

"Before that, what's your name?" Eiji asked calmly, not feeling anything after hearing the other party's goal.

"Oh, this is really impolite. Let me introduce myself. I am Chi Lang. The Strongest Sorcerer!"

The Chinese man named Chi Lang said arrogantly.

"..."

Seeing him shamelessly claim that title, Eiji couldn't say anything.

In the modern era, everyone agreed that the title of 'The Strongest' belonged to Gojo Satoru.

(If you claim to be The Strongest, why not challenge Satoru Nii-san? Forget it, it seems this guy's mind is messed up. He's too narcissistic.)

Through his observation with Six Eyes, Chi Lang's Cursed Energy wasn't even as much as his own.

Of course, the amount of Cursed Energy couldn't be an indicator of a Sorcerer's strength. Moreover, Fushiguro Toji didn't have Cursed Energy; yet, he managed to kill a young Satoru. And Zenin Maki, she slaughtered the entire Zenin Family without Cursed Energy, instead gaining superhuman physical abilities like Toji in return.

So, Eiji suspected Chi Lang's confidence came from his Cursed Technique.

"You must be surprised, right? You should feel honored to die at my hands." Chi Lang said with arrogance.

"Let's end this useless conversation. I don't have time to listen to your nonsense. Want to fight? Then let's start." Eiji no longer wanted to hear Chi Lang's narcissistic words.

"Hmph, you're just a naughty boy. All those stories circulating are just exaggerated rumors. Today, I'll dig out your Six Eyes and make everyone know my name, Chi Lang."

Seeing his indifferent attitude, Chi Lang felt underestimated. Then he assumed a martial arts posture ready to attack.

On the other hand, Eiji just stood there. He didn't seem ready to fight.
