Tragedy

There may be misspelled words in this chapter as I just finished it, so bare with me. I'll proof read later.

==============================

-POV: Naoto Zen'in-

I've been at it for an hour now, I think this will be enough. I've test everything, so all I have to do is wait until I have to use these techniques.

Returning home was something I wanted to do but I feel a little hungry, so I'll go and get some food. Chisato said she's not cooking tonight anyway, so this is the only alternative.

Now what should I get, I kinda want some Yakisoba. But sushi sounds good too. Fuck it, I'll just get both.

-POV End-

Naoto made his way towards the city by traveling through power lines. It was something he likes to do because it feels like he's just zipping around the city(he is).

Finally making it towards Shinjuku, he stopped and appeared inside of an ally. He walked out and seen that the streets were still busy with life.

He quickly made his way towards a shop that sold yakisoba. He entered the building and the first person he sees was a man with long hair and a Buddhist robes.

Feeling someone staring at him, Suguru turned around and seen Naoto staring at him. He smiled and motioned Naoto to come over.

Naoto just sighed and walked towards Suguru. He wasn't alone because Mimiko and Nanako were also with him.

"So why are you here?" Asked Naoto.

"Why can't I be here? This is a public place after all." Said Suguru while carefully eating his food.

"Well knowing your distaste for non-sorcerers, I would've thought you'd want to stay as far away as possible." Said Naoto while looking at the menu.

"It's okay, I have monkey disinfectant spray. You wants some?" Said Suguru as he offered Naoto a small spray bottle.

"No, I'm fine." Said Naoto.

"Well suit yourself. Now on to my question." Said Suguru as he looked at Naoto while smiling.

"Why did you refuse my offer last year?" Asked Suguru.

"Because it's illogical. You want to kill the majority of the population, why? Because they produce curses? Or is it because they can't wield cursed energy?" Asked Naoto.

"Because with those monkeys being around, curses will continue to exist. Why do we as jujutsu sorcerers have to suffer and protect the direct cause of our problems? Wouldn't it be better for us to eliminate the source?" Asked Suguru as he talked passionately.

"You are correct about the non-sorcerers creating the cause of our problems. But that's them doing it unknowingly. Now you can say the humans do cause negative emotions to intensify because humans are a horrible species. But there are good humans that genuinely want to make the world a better place. Do you really want to kill those people too." Asked Naoto.

"If that's what it takes, then so be it. I will not sit around and watch more people I care about die because of something that could've been prevented." Said Suguru with an intense voice.

"Geto-Sama, calm down." Said Mimiko.

"Yes, my apologies." Said Suguru with a smile.

"Then why did you stop Gojo-sensei from killing the time vessel association after Riki Amanai died?" Asked Naoto as he received his Yakisoba.

"I was a naive fool back then, I should've told Satoru to go ahead with it. It's one of my biggest mistakes I've ever made." Said Suguru.

"You know since I've encountered you, I have no other choice than to fight you and turn you in." Said Naoto as he enjoyed his Yakisoba.

Mimiko and Nanako stopped eating and stared daggers at Naoto. Mimiko took her bear and start to pull at the rope, while Nanako aimed her phone at Naoto.

"Calm down girls, he won't attack. We're in a public place full of innocent monkeys. If he were to attack he would be labeled a criminal like me." Said Suguru while smiling at Naoto.

"Do you think I will not attack you? I may be pro life of the non-sorcerers, but don't get it twisted. I will use anything in my power to bring you down. Even if a few humans die in the process. And besides, I can get everyone out of here before you can summon even one cursed spirit. Test that theory at your own risk." Said Naoto as he continued to eat.

"Naw I'm good, I don't feel like fighting today. The girls begged for something good to eat, and i don't want to ruin their day." Said Suguru.

"Nice choice, I didn't want to leave people confused on why this building is no longer here." Said Naoto. While finally finishing his food.

"Thanks for the meal, pay for that for me, thanks." Said Naoto as he got up and left.

"Haha, he's such an asshole. He reminds me of Satoru when we were younger." Said Suguru with a nostalgic smile on his face.

"Geto-Sama? Why didn't you take care of him when you had the chance?" Asked Nanako.

"Because I'm not sure if I could beat him right now. He's on the level of a special grade jujutsu sorcerer. Maybe on par with Yuki." Said Suguru.

What Suguru Geto said it true, Naoto Zen'in is at the level of a special grade sorcerer. What he's wrong about is the fact that Naoto is not at the level of Yuki yet.

Naoto still has an incomplete Domain Expansion. Yuki being in her early thirties has perfected her domain over the years. So it wouldn't make sense for Naoto to be her equal.

-With Naoto-

Now standing on top of a building across from the shop he ate at. Naoto took out his phone and dialed a number.

The phone rang for a few seconds then it was answered.

{Yo Naoto-Kun, did you miss me so much that you called so you could hear my voice?} Said Satoru while laughing.

"Shut it, I ran into Suguru Geto in Shinjuku. He's just eating with his adoptive daughters." Said Naoto as the phone went silent.

{Did you talk to him?} asked Gojo.

"Yeah, I made him buy me food and he wanted to know why I rejected his proposal last year." Said Naoto.

{Well, lever him be for now. He's not doing anything that puts non-sorcerers In danger.} Said Gojo as he hung up the phone.

"Well whatever, it's not my problem." Said Naoto as he disappeared in a flash of light.

Naoto had teleported to Fuukas house since that's where Asami was staying. He had been a few times before, some times with Asami, and some times without.

*KNOCK*KNOCK*

Naoto knocked on the door and waited for a few seconds. The door opened and a beautiful woman appeared while wearing an apron.

"Ahh, Nao-kun. I didn't think you'd show. Chisato-Chan said you'd be out for a while." Said the woman.

This was Fuuka's mother, Seiko Morikawa. She worked for Chisato at her company, so Asami and Fuuka being friends was something that was already decided.

Naoto had met Seiko when he came to tutor Fuuka. Seiko was an energetic woman and was full of youth. She was in her thirties like Chisato so she was still relatively young.

"Yeah well I finished my business and decided to come see you and Fuuka." Said Naoto as he walked inside and took his shoes off.

"Tch, why are you here. I already have to deal with you while you're at home, now I have to deal with you here too?" Said Asami and she walked up to Naoto.

"Yea, Yea, put a sock in it. Like I said, I came to see Fuuka, and Seiko-San." Said Naoto as he messed up Asami hair.

Asami kicked him in the back of the knee, making him almost fall to the ground. Fuuka laughed and walked up to Naoto and hugged him.

"I was in the middle of making dinner, do you want to join us?" Asked Seiko

"I've eaten already but I'll eat again, your cooking is just as good as Chisato's cooking." Said Naoto.

Seiko nodded and went back to the kitchen. She was also a single mother and raised Fuuka all by herself. But unlike Asami's father who left, Fuuka's father died of a heart attack.

Fuuka's father was a other man the Seiko had sex with. She isn't proud of her past and main leaves it hidden. But one day she told Naoto when he found her drinking late at night on one of his "tutoring sessions".

She was drunk and spilled the beans about how her past had haunted her for most of her life. She only started to move on when see met Chisato in college.

They hit it off and became best friends. And while being told this, one thing led to another and Seiko made another mistake.

-Few hours later-

Now it was 10pm, Asami and Naoto decided it was time to go home. Fuuka wanted them to stay but ever since he left the house, Naoto has had a strange feeling in his stomach.

He knew something didn't feel right. So he hurried back home and see if everything is alright.

But since Asami was with him, he couldn't teleport home. So he had to walk 30 minutes to their house. He was grateful that Seiko didn't live far from his home.

When he got close to the house, he felt a sinister cursed energy. He quickly opened the gate and made his way towards the main building.

He didn't have time to take off his shoes and immediately went to the living room where he felt the cursed energy.

When he stepped into the room, he could see a woman with the same type of hair and eyes as him. But one distinct feature about this woman was the scar across her forehead.

Naoto's eyes widened and anger started to creep up on his face. His hand started to crackle with electricity.

"Ah,ah,ah. I wouldn't do that if I were you. I can crush this woman's brain in an instant." Said the woman and she pointed a finger to the side of Chisato's head.

Thankfully Chisato was unconscious and unharmed. But he couldn't stop all the questions that were going through his head right now.

Why is she here?

How did she find me?

Did she hurt her to get to me?

Why does she look familiar?

"You must be wondering why I'm here correct?" Asked the woman.

Naoto nodded slowly and was waiting for Kenjaku to make any sudden movements.

"Hey idiot, why'd you rush In here so fast?" Asked Asami as she approached from behind.

But when she saw her mother unconscious she stopped immediately and tried to rush at Kenjaku.

Naoto grabbed her and held her telling her to stop.

"But that woman has my mother! What did you do to her you whore?" Yelled Asami as she started to cry.

"Wow, she has a mouth on her." Said Kenjaku why laughing.

"Why are you here?" Questioned Naoto as he was visibly angry.

"Now, now, let's not in a hurry now. I've come to see you my son." Said Kenjaku while dropping the bomb on Asami and Naoto.

Naoto froze on the spot when her hear what kenjaku said. His mother? Naobito told him she died while fighting a special grade curse.

"You're lying, my mother is dead." Said Naoto as his cursed energy started to leak out of him.

"Why would I lie to you? You are my creation, you will lead the new world with me. Your brother is coming along perfectly." Said Kenjaku.

Naoto's eyes widened at the fact that Yuji is his brother. And if Yuji's his brother, then that means Choso, Eso, and Kechizu, along with the other death paintings were his siblings.

"What do you mean brother? I have brothers in the Zen'in clan and they can't amount to shit. So unless you're talking about someone else." Said Naoto.

"Yes, you're correct. Naobito's other children are lack luster at best. His only decent child is Naoya. But even he's above average." Said Kenjaku.

"Forget about that, why don't you want to see me, after so long." Asked Naoto.

"I've been watching you ever since you left the Zen'in clan. It was only a matter of time before we met. And I have to say, I'm a little disappointed." Said Kenjaku with a "sad" expression.

"Disappointed? Why?" Asked Naoto as he's never heard anyone say he was a disappointment before.

"Because, you're so close to grasping the true essence of cursed energy. But you're holding your self back, why is that?" Asked Kenjaku.

Naoto couldn't think of an answer because he didn't know himself. He's never had any problems like this before.

"Whatever you're hung up on my son, let it go. It will only hinder your growth into the being you're meant to be." Said Kenjaku.

"Well my time has come, it's time more me to leave. I will see you in the future my son." Said Kenjaku as he cursed Chisato's brain and disappeared with a loud bang.

While watching Chisato's body fall to the ground, Naoto arrived right before it could touch the ground.

Asami seeing her mother get killed immediately stopped there and started hyperventilating and repeating the same words over and over again.

"Don't Die, Don't Die, Don't Die, Don't Die, Don't Die, Don't Die, Don't Die, Don't Die, Don't Die, Don't Die, Don't Die, Don't Die, Don't Die." Said Asami repeatedly.

Naoto's anger had reached a new high, and the weather outside matched his anger. Everyone could hear the thunder and see lightning striking the earth.

Naoto calmed down a little and stood up. He walked over to Asami while carrying Chisato's body.

Be placed it down in front of her and started to talk.

"I will go find her and kill her, don't worry. When this is all over, I'll take you to a place that is safe." Said Naoto as he looked into Asami's eyes.

'They've lost their light, her eyes look similar to Shinobu's from demon slayer.' Thought Naoto.

He released the full force of his observation haki and felt Kenjaku was just outside of his house.

He teleported out and appeared in front of Kenjaku who was standing next to someone else. They looked like a woman with white and red hair. They had a Kimono on.

"Why did you kill her?" Asked Naoto.

"Because she served her purpose. She was supposed to play the mother figure in your life, she was you motivation for you to grow stronger. But she didn't do her job." Said Kenjaku.

Naoto's face contorted into one of pure rage and hatred. He immediately shot bolts of lightning at Kenjaku who just barely dodged.

They were in a clearing inside of a forest, so they wouldn't hurt any bystanders. Kenjaku and Naoto started to fight one another.

What Kenjaku noticed was the his hits would go through Naoto's body. This surprised him but he smiled and continued to experiment.

Naoto's was whaling on Kenjaku but he started to notice that his hits were not having any effect.

They both backed off of each other and stared at each other.

"That's some technique you have. It's like your body is made of pure lightning. Fascinating." Said Kenjaku.

"How come my hits have no effect on you?" Asked Naoto.

"You know if I tell you my technique it would become stronger? I won't cheat like that, especially against my greatest creation." Said Kenjaku.

"What do you mean creation? If I am your son the just say that." Yelled Naoto.

"You are my son, but I also created you, everything you are and will be, was created my me." Said Kenjaku.

"Then what am I?" Asked Naoto as he was curious.

"Let me explain this first, like your brother. He was made to be a prison, his body can contain cursed objects and take their cursed energy. But you, you're a container. You were created to contain energy, cursed energy, and positive energy. Have you ever wondered why you never seem to run out of cursed energy?" Asked Kenjaku

"It's because you absorb all cursed energy from the air and make it your own. You're the perfect sorcerer Naoto." Said Kenjaku.

Naoto was silent while thinking about everything Kenjaku said. He was right, he's never really ran out of cursed energy. He's always been good at wielding cursed energy too.

He's always felt like he had some sort of connection with the cursed energy around him. It's like he's blessed by it.

"Well our reunion has to come to an end sadly. Uraume, would you please do that honors." Said Kenjaku.

The woman stepped forward and then blew into the palm of her hand.

[Cursed Technique Amplification: Frost Calm]

Naoto was instantly frozen in a gust of wind and ice. And a second later he felt and the weight of the world on his shoulders as he smashed into the ground.

His body was riddled with cuts, chunks of flesh were gone and he was barely breathing.

Kenjaku looked at her son and smiled.

"If you can recover from this, then you will reach your maximum potential. Goodbye by my glorious creation." Said Kenjaku as she walked away.

Naoto was slowly losing consciousness. When he finally shut his eyes. His wounds started to heal at a visible rate.

-POV: Narrator(with Asami)-

"You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die, You can't die." Said Asami and she kept repeating it.

These were the words that cursed the dead, and turn them into vengeful spirits. Asami was doing that to Chisato unknowingly.

Behind Asami was a giant woman with a veil over her head. She looked down at Asami and the body of Chisato and started to get angry.

(Image)

{I wIlL pRoTeCt my cHiLdReN} said the vengeful spirit.

With her manifestation, the jujutsu sorcerer know as Kenjaku will suffer the consequences of her own actions.

As Asami will bring her down with full force.

-To be Continued-

=================================

I know some of y'all seen Chisato's death coming, but I bet y'all didn't know was was gonna make her into a vengeful spirit.

And yes, Naoto did do that with Fuuka and her mother in case y'all are wondering. I kinda made it Obvious.

Naoto now knows his true origin and why he was created and why things come so easy to him. He's blessed by cursed energy. The world its self gave him this blessing, not kenjaku. But he/she doesn't know that.

New Jjk chapter? Yuji may have a cursed technique what do y'all think.

Thanks for reading.
