-At Morgue-

"You know I have a lousy personality." Gojo said

"I know." Ijichi answered quickly.

"I'll seriously slap you later, Ijichi." Gojo said, "I'm just not the teacher type, so why would someone like me be a teacher at a place like Jujutsu High?" Gojo asked Ijichi

"Why?" Ijichi asked back.

"Because I have a dream." Gojo answer

-In Sukuna Innate Domain-

"You look like you want to kill me." Sukuna said this while looking at Itadori.

"I wonder why, you did just kill me," Itadori answered angrily.

"Well, it looks like you forgot how I healed your arm for you..." Sukuna said

"You took my heart after that, you know?" Itadori said

"Do I have to spend the afterlife with you too? If that's the case, then I'll make you cry!" Itadori said, throwing a horn to where Sukuna is sitting, destroying bones around him and making him jump to another bone that looked like a monster spine.

Itadori ran to where Sukuna was and said, "Brace yourself."

"No need," Sukuna answered. Sukuna then threw a punch.

But Itadori ducks and punches the ground, making Sukuna stagger. "You're gonna fall for that?" Itadori said this while doing a headstand and aiming his kick at Sukuna's head, but Sukuna suddenly appeared behind him. "Huh?" Itadori said, making a confused face.

"You're so boring." Sukuna said "Geh." Itadori said when Sukuna kicked him, making him fall to the water below them,

"Fwahh!" Itadori got up from the water. "But I thought I definitely scored," He said while Sukuna jumped from above, landed, and sat in Itadori's head, putting Itadori underwater. "BLLLRBRLBR! Itadori said underwater

"We're not in hell, We're in my Innate Domain" Sukuna said, still sitting on top of Itadori. Itadori finally pulled his head from the water. 'Fushiguro mentioned that, I think..." Itadori think

"Think of it as being "Inside" The heart. In other words, we're not dead!" Sukuna continued to explain, "If you accept my conditions, I'll fix your heart and bring you back to life."

"Look at you, talking all big, but you wanna live too, huh?" Itadori said in a mocking tone

"The game has changed. Soon we'll see something interesting." Sukuna said while thinking about Sasori and Megumi "I have two conditions. One is that you agree to let me take over your body for one full minute when I chant "Enchain", and the second is that you will forget about this agreement" Sukuna stated

"No way, I don't know what your intentions are, but they're too fishy. I finally understood something after what happened, you're pure evil. I'll never lend you my body again," Itadori said.

"In that case, let's make a deal that I won't kill or hurt anyone within that minute. That should be good, right?" Sukuna asks

"Who the hell would believe you?!" Itadori said

"It doesn't matter whether you believe me or not. What I suggest is called a Binding Vow. I'm the one who will be punished if I break it, there are consequences for being greedy, and you know this better than anyone else," Sukuna said while mentioning when Itadori got his heart ripped out by him.

"It was fine before!" Itadori said, talking about the school incident.

"That time. I wanted to take over too, you just did it after that Jujutsu Sorcerer told you to," Sukuna said. "A "Binding Vow" is based on mutual interest, it's one of the essentials of Jujutsu."

"...Fine. Get off me. I'll accept your conditions, I don't really get what you want to do, but... well, it's so I can come back to life." Itadori said while standing up, But all of a sudden

Itadori sent a punch to Sukuna's face, saying, "There's no way I'd say that. Bring me back to life with no conditions, I'm dead in the first place because of you, bastard."

"We'll do this then; let's kill each other if you win, I'll do it with no conditions. If I win, I'll bring us back to life with the Binding Vow." Sukuna suggests it with a smirk on his face.

"Fine, I'll beat you to a pu-" "Fwik." Before Itadori finishes speaking, his head is cut in half.

-Back at the Morgue-

"A dream?" Ijichi asked.

"Yup, as they made it clear with Yuji, the higher-ups are the scum of the Jujutsu World" Gojo answered, "Selfish idiots, bloodline idiots, proud idiots, just a bunch of plain idiots! I'm gonna reset this crappy Jujutsu World! It's easy to just kill all the guys at the top. But they would just be replaced, and nothing would change. And it's not as if people approve of such massacres anyway... So that's why I chose education. I need strong and intelligent allies, I need to foster them! That's why I sometimes assign my missions to them, it's a tough love."

'You sure you aren't just lazy?' Ijichi thought

"They're all great, especially third-year Hakari, second-year Okkotsu, and in the first-year Sasori is starting to develop his CT to the next level. They'll be as good as me someday." Gojo said, 'Yuji was no exception' Gojo thought

"Hey, you two, I'm gonna start." Shoko said, "You're just gonna sit there and watch?" While she said this, suddenly Itadori woke up.

Both Gojo and Ijichi were shocked at this.

"whoah! I'm naked!" Itadori said, while Shoko just stared at him.

"G-G-G-Gojo! H-He's alive!" Ijichi said this in shock, while Gojo just laughed.

"Hehehe, you're being noisy, Ijichi," Gojo said.

"Too bad," Shoko said while looking at the naked Itadori.

"Uhm... This is kind of embarrassing... Who are you?" Itadori asked

"Yuji! Welcome back!" Gojo said cheerfully

"Yo! I'm back!" Itadori said in the same tone, and they both high-fived each other.

-On The Outside of The Building-

Two people are seen walking side by side.

"Oh, right. I have to change the report," Shoko said.

"Nah, it's fine like this," Gojo tells her. "Before they come after Itadori again, I'd like to at least give him some basic training. Please leave him listed as deceased in the report."

"Hm?" Shoko raised her eyebrow. "So you're gonna completely hide Itadori?" She ask

"No, I'll make sure he returns to school before the exchange program begins." Gojo answered

"Why?" Shoko asks.

"Easy, I refuse to keep this kid from living the best years of his life. Not just him, but everyone," Gojo answered her while they went down the stairs.

-In The Restaurant-

"Gojo Satoru... Even if we attack at once, we can't kill him, huh?" Jogo asks Geto

"You might be able to run away. Worst case, he'd exorcise you all." Geto answered him and added, "Instead of trying to kill him, focus on sealing him."

"Sealing? How?" Jogo ask

"Use a Special-Grade Cursed Item... Like Prison Realm," Geto answered.
