Bew body 2

"Zero!"

Ichigo shot the zero from the tip of his fingers, Gojo was ready for the attack and wanted to take it head-on but decided to dodge instead.

'This one is dangerous'

Gojo listened to his instincts and dodged to the side safely avoiding the attack.

"What a sight to behold." 

Gojo couldn't help but comment on seeing the destruction caused by Ichigo's attack.

"Good thing there weren't any buildings in the direction."

"Does that matter? I mean the ground is completely destroyed."

Indeed, the field behind Gojo was completely destroyed.

"Hey hey, with that speed you showed early and that destructive power you are already a special class."

"NO, I am not there yet my control over my body and energy needs work, when I used zero I tried to control it but was unable to do so."

"You can work on those things later."

"Yes, for now, I only need to check one last thing, Gojo attack me with enough power to injure me."

"Do you have masochist tendencies Ichigo?"

"Shut it and do it."

Gojo didn't waste time and concentrated his curse energy on his right hand to create a blade-like effect and slashed at Ichigo.

Ichigo seeing the attack come at him didn't move and took the attack head-on without guarding. 

"Ichigo-san! Hey, you fool what have you done."

Ichigo's chest was slashed, and a wound was visible. 

"Calm down Riko, Ichigo was the one who asked Gojo to attack him, he probably has a plan and Shoko is here so there is nothing to worry about."

Ichigo stood in the field with his eyes closed and the next moment, his wound started bubbling, and the wound quickly closed.

"Reverse curse technique? No, I didn't feel Ichigo using curse energy. Don't tell me that was his natural body function!"

Geto saw how Ichigo's wound was healing and was surprised by Ichigo's natural healing factor.

"I am glad to see it work."

"You didn't know if it was going to work!?"

"I thought it may."

"Gosh! you idiot you know how dangerous that was!"

Shoko, hearing Ichigo's words, started scolding him.

"Okay okay, I am sorry I won't do it again."

"You better."

"..."

"....."

"....."

Riko, Gojo, and Geto were standing at the side watching the two fight or more like seeing how Shoko Scolded Ichigo.

"Shoko took a liking to him, didn't she?"

"Yea, we always did stupid things, and she was worried but never nagged us like that."

"Doesn't that mean she hates him?"

"You still young Riko."

"Huh?"

While the three were speaking, Ichigo was finally free from Shoko's nagging.

"Okay, I already got an idea of what I am capable of. Thank you, Gojo."

"Any time." 

"Come on, let's eat something, it would be on me."

"Yay, free food."

"I want sushi."

"Ramen is better."

"Ichigo, while I appreciate the invitation, there is a little problem."

Geto spoke with a serious voice, and tension could be felt in the way he spoke. 

"What?"

"Did you forget that you don't have money?"

"...."

One year later, Jujutsu High

 In a one-bedroom apartment, a teen with orange hair was in meditation with both legs crossed and curse energy surrounding him, a few seconds later the teen opened his eyes.

"sigh, not yet it seems."

but his eyes had a look of disappointment in them

"I wonder when will I be able to manifest my domain expansion?"

One year has gone by in a blink of an eye, during this time Ichigo try to find a way back home but was unsuccessful.

"I don't want Satoru to complete his domain before me, he will never let me forget it."

swish!!

Ichigo's door was swing open and a white-haired man came into the room as if it belonged to him.

"Ichigo! Let's go and eat something, I am bored Geto is away on a mission with Riko."

"Satoru! How many times do I have to tell you to knock!"

"Many, come on let's go."

"sigh, annoying bastard"

Even thought Ichigo looked annoyed he got up from his bed and walked out of his room walking beside Gojo.

In the past year, Ichigo's friendships with Gojo, Geto, Riko, and Shoko have become even stronger.

"Is Shoko coming too?"

"Nah she is busy taking care of Nanami and Yu. They just came back from a mission and are pretty beat up."

"Agian? those two need more training."

"Go easy on them, it was thanks to your training that they came back from the last mission."

"Hmm, it was mortifying seeing Yu's condition back then."

---------------------

One month ago 

Haibara Yu was lying down in a bed but he was awake.

"So how come you are in such shape?"

"hahaha, Ichigo-senpai your eyes are scaring me."

"This is the eyes I used to look at fools that don't follow their training."

"So harsh, but I guess you are right, it wasn't until I remembered your words that I didn't give up. Thank you, Ichigo-senpai."

"Thank me by not getting back in a near-death state next time."

"Okay, but truly than you, I will always remember your slogan."

"Huh? My slogan?"

"Hmm, you know the first thing you told me when you started training Nanami and me."

"Oh, that,I just stole from an old.... teacher of mine."

"I see it sounds really cool, 'Move forward and never stop, if you retreat you will age, if you hesitate, you'll die' a really motivational speech, it may sound cheese but those words gave me strength to go on, well that and the gruesome training you gave us."

--------------------------------

Back to the present

"Well, we can visit him later. and what about Riko and Suguru."

"Suguru was assigned to a mission to some remote village and Riko went with him to watch and learn, but I bet she only wanted to spend time with him hahaha."

"Sounds about right, but I feel a little bad for her. She was the only first year this time around, right?"

"Yes"

"Do you know when will they come back?"

"It shouldn't take long, the cursed spirit is supposed to be a First-grade to Suguro that is not a problem."

--------------------------------

In a remote village 

Geto was standing in a room lit by candles looking at something ahead of him.

"What is this?"

"These girls are the cause of the Incidents."
