The Death of Kamiki Eiji?

Tokyo Jujutsu High School.

"It's already 10 PM! Has Eiji still not returned?"

Losing patience, Maki complained irritably.

"Eiji loves wandering around the city, but it's unusual for him not to come back until late at night."

Panda scratched the back of his head, expressing his confusion.

"Salmon." Toge nodded.

"Eiji-kun's phone can't be reached. Could something have happened to him?"

Looking at the phone screen, Yuta said worriedly.

The reason they had gathered was to celebrate his victory at today's Goodwill Event.

Facing the combined students of Kyoto Jujutsu High, Yuta dominated the competition and achieved a complete victory.

After Panda and the others heard the news when Yuta returned, they wanted to throw a celebration party. However, because Eiji was on a mission to exorcise Cursed Spirits outside, they waited for him to return.

Unexpectedly, even after the sun set, Eiji had not returned, and his phone could not be reached.

"Something happened to Eiji? Yuta, you're overthinking. He's a Special Grade just like you; there's hardly anything that could hurt him."

Although reluctant to admit it, Maki did not doubt Eiji's strength.

"How about asking Gojo-sensei? He might know something." Panda suggested.

"That's a good idea, let's go."

Maki walked ahead, followed by Yuta and the others.

Outside the Curtain, the four Cursed Spirits appeared to be growing tired. Especially Dagon, the weakest among them.

"Oi, Geto, why isn't this guy falling?! Dagon is almost out of Cursed Energy!" Jogo shouted angrily.

"Calm down, Jogo, we're all in a similar state. I must say, Kamiki Eiji's endurance exceeds my calculations. I didn't expect him to still be able to fight in such a condition."

Ignoring the sweat dripping down his forehead, Kenjaku felt his decision to kill Eiji here was the right one. If the other party were allowed to grow and become stronger, he would become a troublesome threat in the future.

"Amazing! Even in a dying state, his soul isn't afraid at all! I want to devour his soul!"

Mahito watched the battle within the Curtain with excitement.

He could see the beauty of Eiji's soul, which was very captivating to him. Even so, he restrained himself from acting out of the plan. So, he just watched with drool at the corner of his mouth.

"Kamiki Eiji… He's a tough one... Even with only one hand left and wounds all over his body, he continues to fight relentlessly. He's a true warrior."

Hanami couldn't help but praise.

"Hey, Geto, since you think Gojo Satoru is stronger than Kamiki Eiji, does that mean Gojo Satoru's physical strength is extraordinary?" Mahito asked because bored.

"You misunderstand, Mahito. It's true, Gojo Satoru is considered the strongest in the modern era, but that's due to his mastery of the Limitless Technique. After all, he is the contemporary bearer of the Six Eyes, Kamiki Eiji is still inferior in this aspect. But… If we talk about physical strength between the two, Kamiki Eiji is far superior."

Kenjaku paused, observing Eiji surrounded by more than two million remaining Cursed Spirits.

"Kamiki Eiji is unique. He is not only a bearer of the Six Eyes but also born with the Heavenly Restriction that grants him the blessing of superhuman physical strength."

"Wow, what the heck?! Isn't that cheating? He's so lucky!"

Listening to the narration, Mahito complained like a child.

"Indeed… It's as if heaven loves Kamiki Eiji, giving him so much advantageous power." Kenjaku said, narrowing his eyes.

*Slash Slash Slash*

Standing on the head of a Cursed Spirit the size of a school building, Eiji's left hand flickered with a faint light that was barely visible at night.

In an instant, dozens of Cursed Spirits around him were sliced into pieces, their bodies collapsing to the ground.

*Slash*

Swinging his katana vertically, Eiji split the Cursed Spirit beneath him into two parts, then continued using other Cursed Spirits as footholds, hopping like a squirrel among them.

'Has no one realized my situation yet? I can't hold out much longer.'

Eiji began to lose hope that help would arrive.

His current condition was truly on the brink of collapse.

His clothes had long been torn, leaving only shorts, worse than a homeless person's attire.

His right hand had been severed two hours ago, eaten by a catfish-shaped Cursed Spirit. To his regret, the Storage Ring was still on that right hand!

Eiji had long run out of Cursed Energy to heal his wounds.

Even with the Six Eyes minimizing Cursed Energy usage to nearly zero, it wasn't truly zero. Facing ten million Cursed Spirits at once, it was impossible for Eiji not to run out of Cursed Energy.

Moreover, his Cursed Energy wasn't as vast as his cousin's due to the Heavenly Restriction.

As a result, there wasn't a single part of Eiji's body that wasn't injured, with blood mixed with sweat soaking his body.

Fortunately, he wasn't powerless without Cursed Energy. The Heavenly Restriction showcased the greatness of his superhuman physical strength.

So, Eiji continued to hold out until now.

"You want my life? You'll have to pay dearly for it."

"AHHHHHHHHH!!!"

No longer maintaining his emotionless stance, Eiji roared while increasing his speed.

*Slash Slash Slash*

Wherever he passed, Cursed Spirits were cut down to death.

Unfortunately, Eiji couldn't maintain high-intensity fighting relying solely on his physical strength forever.

In the end, he reached his limit. His stamina drained after hours of fighting.

"Ah… Is this what death feels like?"

Lying atop a pile of Cursed Spirit corpses that formed a mountain, Eiji stopped struggling.

Not that he was giving up, it was just that his body could no longer move.

At this moment, Eiji felt like he was watching a flashback of his life as if a film was being played quickly.

Honestly, his only regret in life was not being able to live a normal life like ordinary people.

Eiji could only watch high school students enjoying their youth from afar.

He also wanted to experience having close friends, a girlfriend, part-time work, and other ordinary life activities.

However, since he was born with power, he knew that was just a dream.

"Haaahhh… In the next life, I hope to be born as an ordinary person…"

Closing his eyes, Eiji accepted his impending death.

His vitality was at its lowest point, like the flame of a candle that could be extinguished by even the slightest breeze

*BAM*

The next moment, 1.5 million remaining Cursed Spirits pounced on Eiji like a waterfall, leaving no space at all.

"We did it!"

Feeling Eiji's aura disappear, Kenjaku hadn't felt such joy in a long time.

"Uuuu…"

Dagon ran out of Cursed Energy and sat on the ground in extreme exhaustion.

"Phew… Finally, that kid is dead. This job was tougher than I expected. However, it's a satisfying result."

Jogo grinned widely, pleased with the success of their plan.

"Let's go, I'm worried Kamiki Eiji's death might be sensed by Gojo Satoru." Hanami couldn't help but worry.

Right now, they were in their weakest state; if they encountered Gojo Satoru, they would be annihilated.

"Eh~, let me check Kamiki Eiji's corpse. He'll become my collection~" Mahito said, wanting to use his Cursed Technique.

"Hanami is right, I heard when Kamiki Eiji was born, there was a resonance between the Six Eyes. It's likely the same will happen when he dies. We have to leave quickly, Gojo Satoru might come soon."

Under Kenjaku's persuasion, Mahito gave up collecting the corpse, and they hurriedly left Aokigahara Forest.

Kenjaku doesn't even care about the 8.5 million Cursed Spirits' corpses scattered on the ground.

Besides killing Eiji, he had gained an unexpected benefit when examining the other party's Storage Ring.

Sukuna's Finger!

Kenjaku did not anticipate the other party collecting several of Sukuna's Fingers. With this, it saved him the time of collecting Sukuna's Fingers.
