Mahoraga The Divine General.

To face Mahoraga, he wanted to find a place where he would not be bothered. With the intensity of a battle on that level, it wouldn't be hard to get spotted. The last thing he wanted was for Makima to learn about Big Raga just yet.

Mahoraga was going to be his trump card against some of the more dangerous Devils like the Horse Men and Primordial Fears. Mahoraga's Adaptation was Lethal and could save his life in a pinch. As such, once he loaded up the Centipede Devil's head, and legs into his truck bed he also bagged some of the Devils Flesh which he put into his cooler. 

Once he did that, he turned to Delta who had her face green with Centipede Devil Blood.

"Delta, ready to go on a trip?"

She perked up when she heard the word trip.

"Where?"

"Aokigahara Forest, also known as Suicide Forest. It is going to be a bit of a drive, but I think if we find a deep location in the woods I should be able to fight in peace."

Delta nodded.

"Who are we fighting?"

Not we Delta, me. I rather you not get sliced by the Sword of Extermination. Get in the truck as we are going to go on a drive to get there."

She slumped as she thought they would get to fight together. 

"Oh, I understand." 

"Sorry about this, but it is for your safety." 

"Right." 

As they both got into his pickup he put into the GPS location on his truck to get to Aokigahara Forest. It was going to be a long drive since getting to Aokigahara Forest from Hiroshima was going to take eight hours. He put on some music and focused on the upcoming battle. 

---

Throughout the eight-hour drive, he had been silent while Delta had fallen asleep halfway there. She had reclined her seat and was snoring away. However, when he began to pull up to the forest Delta opened her eyes and began to smell the air.

"I smell death, and it is fresh."

"Guess someone killed themselves. If you find them, eat them."

She then turned to him with Stars in her eyes.

"Do you want any, Master?" 

He shook his head not because he wouldn't eat people, he just wasn't hungry.

"Not today, you enjoy."

"More for me then."

When he parked the truck, he stepped out of it before taking off his jacket. He tossed it into his seat as Delta stepped out ready to find the corpse.

"Delta, I am going to go deep into the forest, whatever you do, do not come to my side. Do whatever you want, just don't go around killing and eating people. Stick to the bodies of the dead if you do find any."

"GOT IT!" 

She then ran off on all fours into the forest to find the body of one of the many suicide victims. Suicides were up because so many people lost their families to Devils. He wouldn't be suprised if a Suicide Devil or something of the sort popped up. 

"Right then."

He placed his hands in his pant pockets as he walked made his way deep into the forest. The Aokigahara was 12 square miles and a single Domain expansion of the Malevolent Shrine at 15 fingers would destroy an area of 200 Meters through the lack of a Barrier.

At 20 Fingers that area was even greater so he got wanted to prepare for that. Rather than rush he took his time with a smile on his face. He was going to go all out from the start meaning he was going to be pulling out his true form.

He grinned widely as two more eyes opened on his face. He had been wanting to reveal this form, but no one had forced him to use it. Delta had not even seen it before, and no one who saw it would live.

After walking for over an hour he made it to a very deep and isolated place in Aokigahara forest. Once he was here, he took a deep breath as his Cursed Energy began flowing through his body.

A titanic pillar of Cursed Energy burst out from him causing trees around him to crumble. Everything around him was crushed by the sheer release of his True Form as Cursed Energy flowed like an ocean.

People who were in the forest felt terrified and they started escaping as a Devil could have appeared. Delta who had found the hanged person and was in the process of tearing into the body shot up looking in Sukuna's location with her ears and tail at attention.

"Master is the strongest."

Every since she met him, Ryomen Sukuna was her everything. Her Master, and here he revealed why he deserved her devotion. Though someone else took notice of what Sukuna did as Makima who was in Kyoto sensed it. She could sense as a very potent and powerful source of Negative Energy appeared in Japan.

Just releasing his true form had been such large deal that Devils from all over Japan began moving toward his location. They were after the Cursed Energy he released, but all they would find was death if they did reach him.

As for Makima, she stood up from the meeting and walked to the window to look in the direction of Aokigahara Forest. Makima squinted her eyes as she looked the vast distance.

Makima had very good eyes she could see the Gun Devil at a distance of 500 KM in the Manga. Aokigahara was at a distance of 358 KM from Kyoto so it was still in her line of sight.

When she focused, she couldn't see Sukuna as he quickly placed a Curtain around a vast area to block off her sight. All she saw was a giant black barrier formed around the center of Aokigahara Forest. 

'What is that?'

One of the 'Kyoto Bigwigs' as Makima called them spoke up when he saw Makima move to the window.

"Makima, what is it?"

She turned to him with her usual smile.

"A powerful Devil has appeared in Aokigahara Forest. Probibly from the myths and other legends of that place. It has placed a barrier the moment it appeared so I couldn't see it." 

Another man thought about what she said.

"We should send some Devil Hunters to handle it. If you say it is powerful, maybe capturing it for use in Contracts would be profitable." 

Makima didn't think that was going to happen if they relied on human Devil Hunters unless they were top class ones and even then, it wasn't likely. 

"If you send anyone not of the highest order of Devil Hunter they will be fodder."

One of the Higher Ups began to think before he made up his mind.

"In that case, set up a team so-"

Makima turned around with her hands behind her back.

"No need, I will go myself. I could bring it under control myself."

"In that case, go ahead."

---

At Aokigahara, as the Cursed Energy settled down around Ryomen revealing his form. He was now 9'10 with four arms, a mouth on his stomach, and four eyes.

 Cursed Energy seemed to form a fiery aura around him as it began burning at the concentration.

Before he brought out Mahoraga, he pulled out the Gun Devil bullet from his pocket. He tossed it into his mouth. He swallowed it and the moment it reached his stomach, a flood of Negative Energy burst through his body.

In his Heian Era Form, he was at his strongest and the Negative Energy was quickly assimilated into the stream or Cursed Energy. His reserves grew by a few percents and he could feel his Cursed Energy grow in potentency.

In less than five minutes he brought his Cursed Energy under control. He took another five just to get acclimated to his form. He stretched out his arms, started stretching as he got used to talking through his stomach mouth. He also got his breathing under control while he practiced forming hand signs with his second hands which was easy.

He had all of the battle experiences and memories of Ryomen Sukuna and he was ready. He formed the incantation to summon Mahoraga as he prepared to begin the exorsisim.

"With this Sacre's Treasure, I summon Eight-Handled Sword Divergent Sila Divine General Mahoraga."

As he started the ritual, the Shikigami of the Ten Shadows began to appear from the darkness. They were far larger and stronger than Megumi's thanks to his vast Cursed Energy. He backed away and he quickly formed a hand sign with his second set of hands.

His second mouth began chanting enpowering words as he extended his main arms to battle physically with the Divine General.

"Come on, Mahoraga."

He watched as the giant wrapped form of the Divine General appeared. Rather than wait, he used the moment as he rushed in as he pointed with his free hands. He started releasing a barrage of Cleaving Slashes that minced and diced Mahoraga to a bloody chunks.

He smiled as he saw Mahoraga reform rapidly and he seemed pissed. The Eight Handled Wheel on his back was already twitching as it began to adapt to his Technique.

"That got your attention, welcome to the world my friend. Now, let's make this a two on one."

He switched the hand sign of his second hand as he copied Sukuna to form Merged Beast Agito. Totality could be temporary so he formed it from Nue, Great Serpent, Round Deer and Tiger Funeral.

Mahoraga watched as the Shikigami formed Merged Beast Agito standing as tall as him. Agioto clentched it's fists as purple lightning began crackling through them. Next to it, Ryomen smirked as he looked at Mahoraga.

'Jumpjutsu.'

He and Agito rushed forward toward Mahoraga who glanced between the two of them before making it's choice. It rushed forward toward the both of them. When all three reached each other, Agito brased it's arms as the Mahoraga brought down it's Sword Of Extermination on it. The Shikigami didn't react as the blade sliced through it's limbs.

If it felt pain, it didn't make it known as it used RCT to heal the damage. As for Sukuna, he punched the chest of Mahoraga with a fist surging with Cursed Energy. Mahoraga spat out white bile, but through the punch, Sukuna unleashed Cleave causing the upper half of Mahoraga to be diced into bloody chunks.

Mahoraga's legs didn't stop moving as he regenerated again in moments. The Wheel on it's back on the verge of turning to fully adapt. At that moment, Agito rushed in and landed a brutal Cursed Lightning infused uppercut into the Divine General.

As Mahoraga was hit, he lunged out, grabbed the arms of Agito to tear them off. Only for Sukuna to launch a Dismantle slicing off Mahoraga's arms and a vast area of the forest. That allowed Agito to lunge forward and wrap it's arms around Mahoraga. From it's body a titanic burst of Cursed Lightning ran through both Shinigami, with Mahoraga taking the brunt of the damage. 

When the Lightning disipated, the badly burned body of Mahoraga was revealed. As for Agito, it was fine and still holding on. Using the paralyzed state of Mahoraga, Sukuna rushed in with his upper right arm surging with Cursed Energy.

As he came in for a punch, his Cursed Energy started sparkling black as he landed a punch to the back of Mahoraga.

'BLACK FLASH!'

In his true form, a Black Flash was devestating as he blew out a massive hole in Mahoraga body. The chest of Mahoraga exploded outward in a explosion of gore covering Agito.

Agito though also received the blow from the Black Flash causing it's chest to sink in. Rather than release Mahoraga, it head butted the Divine General while it healed through RCT. It kept it's hold waiting for Sukuna to move in.

As Mahoraga's head was tossed back by the impact and the distortion of the Black Flash landed on it. Now it was getting mad, but it was going to get madder. The lightning borns regenerated rapidly. 

As for Sukuna, by landing a Black Flash, Ryomen Sukuna's Cursed Energy was flowing at 120% and he was in the zone. With his Enpowering Words and Hand Signs he had this in the bag.

He was't done with one Black Flash though as he spun around with a reinforced kick.

'Black Flash.'

He struck the right knee of Mahoraga causing the knee and leg to explode. When Mahoraga kneeled, Agito raised it's arms and slammed them down on the Divine General's head with potent lightning.

The top part of the Divine General's head caved in and was shocked with lightning. With the second Black Flash, Ryomen used Cleave and chopped up Mahoraga into bloody chunks.

As he did that, Mahoraga's wheel turned as it regenerated to it's peak in a blinding flash. Agito clentched it's fists, but before it rushed in, Sukuna pulled it in to his shadow. This was the best chance to end the fight as Mahoraga was adapting.

Mahoraga turned to look at Ryomen who through his four arms formed the hand sign for a Domain Expansion twice. He then opened his eyes and he uttered those words.

"Domain Expansion, Malevolent Shrine."

As soon as he uttered those words his Cursed Energy began flowing like crazy as the Demonic Shrine and bovine skulls formed. Ryomen Sukuna, The King Of Curses had released his Domain for the first time and he was standing on top of it.

A vast area of over 250 Meters was enveloped in his Domain and the sure hit gurantee was achieved. Thousands of Dismantle and Cleave slashes turned Mahoraga to a bloody mist.

Just like Sukuna did, he released his seal with his main arms as he prepared to end Mahoraga before he fully adapted.

"Fuga(Open)."

The Divine Flame began to form in his hands which he pulled into the shape of an arrow. He aimed it at the reforming Mahoraga who had his wheel spin for the second time making far more resisitent to slashes.

Mahoraga began to walk forward through the barrage of slashes, but with only two spins it wasn't fully immune. Before Mahoraga could fully adapt he released the Divine Arrow which struck Mahoraga with what seemed like the force of a small yield Nucleur bomb.

The blinding flash of the powerful flames enveloped the Shikigami which vaporized it completely leacing no trace. That meant the Exorsism Ritual was complete and he had successfully tamed Mahoraga. When the blast of Divine Fire sputtered out not a trace of the Shinigami was left.

"Ball Game."

He dropped his Domain and Curtain as he had what he wanted. He took a deep breath as he was much stronger than a 15 Finger Sukuna. The fight wasn't as hard as he did cheat by having Agito with him to jump Mahoraga. 

But one on ones were for stupid people when it was easier to jump your foe. As he was thinking that he turned his head to the trees

"Delta, what are you doing here?"

Delta was holding a human arm and was standing at the edge of his curtain. When it came down, and her Master walked out she was left speechless at the sight of him. She looked him up and down and started drooling. She walked toward him and took in the view completely.

"Master, you look amazing."

Her tail was wagging like crazy, and he could swear he saw her eyes turn to hearts. He smiled as he walked toward her as what guy didn't like being told they looked great by a hot girl

"You think I look good?"

She nodded her head rapidly as she meant that. Not just his apperance, but the way his Cursed Energy felt made her feel full of joy. For a Devil, their was nothing more attractive than strength and lots of Negative Energy.

He walked toward her and patted her head with one of his hands.

"Thanks for the vote of confidence. Now, step behind me."

She did as he said and got behind him. He then looked into the forest and he squinted his eyes.

"Makima."

A swarm or rats emerged from the forest in a flood and from them emerged Makima. When the rats seperated and she walked out she locked her eyes on him. She had no idea what he was as he seemed like a Devil, but he also felt human and not a hybrid. 

What in the world was he?

"Ryomen Sukuna, I thought you were odd, now I know your special."

Delta started growling from behind him. She felt nervous at the sight of Makima and she made it clear. Makima turned to her and was about to speak, only for her head to fall off through a quick Cleave from Ryomen. 

He wouldn't let her brain wash Delta as Delta belonged to him.

"That was a warning, don't mess with Delta."

As Makina's head fall to the ground, her body followed suit. He crossed his four arms waiting as Makima sacrificed a Japanese citizen to revive through her contract to the Prime Minister.

Her head reattached to her body, and she stood up with a pissed off look on her face.

"That wasn't necessary."

"I say it was. Now then, Makima, what do you want? Are you here to talk or, to fight?" 

As he said that, his second pair of arms formed a hand sign and he got into a fighting stance. He didn't think fighting Makima this soon was on the table, but what else did he expect when she had the whole world on alert. 

When Makima saw that, she squinted her eyes as she couldn't brainwash Sukuna. She could try to do that for Delta, the Wolf Devil, but she would lose her head again. What was she going to do?
