[Third Person's PoV]

As Todo and Megumi channeled their increasing curse energy, the training ground crackled with an electrifying aura, a palpable anticipation for the impending clash of power.

Meanwhile, the group surrounding Maki and Mai engaged in a lively exchange, their banter echoing amidst the charged atmosphere.

Nobara, with her characteristic curiosity, couldn't resist probing the twins. "So you guys are twin sisters, huh? Who's stronger between the two of you?"

Simultaneously, Maki and Mai retorted, "It's obviously me," throwing a quizzical glance at each other as their words mirrored perfectly.

Mai seized the moment to take a jab at her sister. "Oh, please. Ever since you started dating Ash, you've gone soft and weaker."

Maki fired back, her tone laced with a hint of playful mockery. "Yeah, right. Don't tell me that ever since Ash gave you that upgrade, you've become arrogant."

A sly smirk played on Mai's lips. "Arrogant? No, no, no, no. I just know I'm better than you."

Maki's confidence remained unshaken as she countered, "At long-distance shooting maybe, but that remains to be tested. My aim and shooting skills have ascended since my Heavenly Restrictions got upgraded."

The playful rivalry between the sisters was evident, their competitive spirits lighting up the conversation amidst the charged atmosphere. As they exchanged barbs and jests, the surrounding onlookers chuckled, enjoying the lively banter that provided a momentary respite before the impending clash of powers between Todo and Megumi.

As the banter between Maki, Mai, and the rest continued, Ash, with a mischievous glint in his eye, decided to provoke the twins further.

"Why don't you test it out then?" Ash prodded, his words aimed at igniting the competitive flame between the sisters.

"What?" Both Maki and Mai responded simultaneously, their attention now drawn to Ash's challenge.

"Why don't you two fight it out and find out who's stronger?" Ash continued, his tone laced with playful encouragement.

The suggestion lingered in the air, met with a mix of surprise and contemplation from the twin sisters. However, just as the idea began to sink in, a concerned voice interrupted their momentary distraction.

"Is it really a good idea to make them fight as Todo and Megumi look like they're about to tear each other necks off any moment now" said Nobara looking worried.

"Maybe it's best we wait for Megumi and Todo to finish fighting" suggested panda

"Salmon!" Said Toge agreeing with panda

"Plus wouldn't you guys see who the stronger one is in the Goodwill event" Panda continued really trying to dissolve the situation one battle was already good enough in his opinion.

Maki and Mai just looked at each other briefly with narrowed eyes as they both nodded their head slowly.

...

As Gojo sat confidently before the Principal of Kyoto's Jujutsu High School, his nonchalant demeanor exuded an air of playful arrogance.

"Principal Yaga won't be coming for a while... I gave him a fake schedule so we could talk for a while. Thanks for setting this up," Gojo remarked casually, his tone indicating his disregard for traditional protocols.

The Principal of Kyoto's Jujutsu High maintained his composed expression, unfazed by Gojo's antics. "For someone as old as I am, time comes at a price," he responded calmly, his words carrying the weight of age and experience.

But then, the Principal, deep in thought, placed a hand on his chin, his gaze fixed on Gojo. "Dear me, what could 'this' be?" he pondered aloud, a hint of intrigue coloring his tone.

Gojo's challenging smirk widened as he locked eyes with the Kyoto Principal. "Don't play dumb, gramps. It's about Itadori Yuji. You, the conservative head, are involved, right?" His words dripped with confidence, subtly probing the Principal for information regarding the situation involving Itadori.

The atmosphere crackled with underlying tension as Gojo's brazen approach met the Principal's calm and reserved demeanor. The mention of Itadori, a pivotal figure in the jujutsu world, hinted at a deeper conflict, one that might challenge the conservative principles the Kyoto Principal stood for. Their interaction hinted at the complex web of relationships and conflicts within the jujutsu society, waiting to unravel with time.

The tension in the room escalated as Gojo's audacity clashed with the Kyoto Principal's composed demeanor.

"Good grief, can't youngsters... use proper polite speech?" The old man let out an exasperated sigh, clearly taken aback by Gojo's lack of respect.

"First of all, I had no intentions of showing respect. Today's elderly sure are judgmental today, seriously," Gojo retorted, his irreverence unyielding.

Before the situation could escalate further, Miwa, a second year student of Kyoto, interjected, her concern evident in her voice. "Hold on a second. That's problematic behavior. I'll have to report you to the relevant authorities," she stated firmly, addressing Gojo's disregard for decorum.

As the tension simmered, Miwa's internal thoughts revealed her excitement at being in Gojo Satoru's presence. 'Holy Moly, it's Gojo Satoru in the flesh. I didn't get a chance to say hi or get an autograph last time I saw him,' she mused, her thoughts a stark contrast to the serious situation at hand.

Unfazed by Miwa's warnings, Gojo waved her off dismissively. "You're free to do so. I didn't intend to say much anyway," he replied casually, brushing off the potential consequences of his brash behavior.

Miwa, despite her concerns, found herself exhilarated at being part of the interaction with Gojo, even if it involved reprimanding him. 'We had a conversation together!,' she thought happily, cherishing the moment of being in the presence of the enigmatic and infamous Gojo Satoru, albeit in a less than ideal circumstance.

The revelation of the recent encounter with high-grade curse spirits brought a momentary pause in the conversation, catching the attention of the Kyoto Principal.

"Last night, Ash and I were attacked by 4 unregistered High-grade curse spirits," Gojo disclosed, his tone casual yet carrying a hint of gravity.

The old man, slightly taken aback by the news, responded with nonchalance, "That's unfortunate," masking his surprise behind his composed facade.

"Don't misunderstand; the two of us were just using them as playthings by the end of it," Gojo added casually, his words diminishing the threat posed by such formidable adversaries, his confidence apparent in his demeanor.

"Ughhh, he's so cool," Miwa couldn't help but admire Gojo's nonchalant attitude even in the face of danger, her admiration evident in her internal thoughts.

Continuing his account, Gojo elaborated, "And those curse spirits were able to communicate and make plans. I'm sure they have comrades of that same grade, that I can be sure of."

The implications of coordinated high-grade curse spirits struck a chord of concern among those present. Gojo's words hinted at a deeper, more organized threat lurking within the shadows, a revelation that underscored the gravity of the situation.

The Kyoto Principal, although maintaining his composure, betrayed a flicker of concern at the revelation. The possibility of such organized and powerful curse spirits operating beyond registration posed a significant risk to the stability of the jujutsu world, prompting a silent evaluation of the potential ramifications.
