_______________________________________________________________________________
Observing that man, Jogo quickly concluded that he was a sorcerer.
His puffed chest, his confident expression, and his meticulously controlled cursed energy—all of this was indicative.
Jogo could tell through these aspects that the sorcerer in front of him must be strong.
But...
Definitely not stronger than him.
"Insolent humans, just get out of my way!"
And for this reason, he didn't want to waste time with someone so insignificant, his hand raising as flames threatened to explode at any moment.
*Clap
But as he seemed about to attack, his eyes widened in surprise when the vision before his eyes changed, his head turning in time to see a fist inches from his face.
Boom!
Jogo flew as the impact violently hit his face, his momentum halted by his feet as he skillfully regained control of his body.
'This again?'
A small bruise appeared on the curse's jaw, disappearing as quickly as it appeared.
'He's changing my position? How?'
Jogo observed Todo cautiously, his teeth clenched as he seemed to grow frustrated.
'A truly irritating technique.'
Raising his hand again and pointing at the sorcerer, Jogo narrowed his eyes, soon noticing how Todo brought his hands together in anticipation.
'But I think I figured out the trick!' With a disdainful smile, Jogo let the flames dance across his fingers. 'This time, I'll hit!'
Todo's eyes widened as he noticed Jogo about to attack, clapping his hands once more and swapping positions between the two.
!
But as he seemed confident in escaping the attack, he was surprised when the curse advanced towards him seconds after the switch.
'He figured it out!' Todo went on high alert, and imbuing his body with cursed energy, he prepared as the curse closed the distance. 'He's fast!'
"One down!" Reaching the man, Jogo displayed a disdainful smile as he touched his abdomen.
*Clap!
But he was surprised when he saw the man disappear in the blink of an eye, his teeth clenching as a kick struck the top of his head with enough force to push him to the ground.
Todo took this moment to retreat, cold sweat running down his forehead as he remained on guard.
Todo had realized beforehand that the curse in front of him was powerful, but with this brief exchange between them, he noticed that the gap between them was even greater than he had expected.
His instincts screamed at him, and this made him understand that just one hit would be enough to end everything.
He needed to be cautious, or all his effort could be destroyed due to a single slip.
Todo smiled at this, and wiping the sweat from his face, he puffed out his chest confidently as the curse stood up without showing much damage.
"Damn..." Jogo cursed, turning to face Todo with irritation.
And the sorcerer, seeing this, just shrugged confidently.
"Let's dance, volcano head."
!
Todo leaped as a wave of flames threatened to engulf him, his eyes widening in surprise as he noticed the overwhelming heat emanating from the flames.
But he didn't have time to pay attention to how dangerous they were, as he noticed the curse exploding in his direction.
'He's extremely fast!' Todo clapped his hands seconds before a fist hit his head, a nervous smile spreading across his lips.
"Stop running, damn it!" Jogo growled, turning to attack, his teeth clenched as Todo kicked his stomach.
*Clap!
But before the curse could fly back, Todo quickly swapped their positions, hitting him with an elbow in succession.
But this only served to annoy Jogo, who tried to touch him with the intention of incinerating him.
"Not so fast!"
But Todo was quick to clap his hands, swapping their positions again and hitting the curse's back with a powerful punch that sent him flying.
"Enough!" Jogo roared as he planted his feet on the ground, turning and exploding toward Todo like a bullet.
The sorcerer narrowed his eyes at this, and immediately brought his hands together in anticipation.
'I'll wait for the switch...' Closing in, Jogo clenched his fists, a disdainful smile on his lips. 'And strike at the exact moment.'
With this strategy in mind, Jogo closed the distance between them, his eyes following the sorcerer's hands.
*Clap!
And the instant the claps sounded, he immediately turned and punched...
But he seemed surprised when he didn't notice his vision change as it had before.
Boom!
Jogo gasped as a fist hit his ribs squarely, his teeth clenching in irritation as he quickly retreated.
"You seem to have realized that every time I clap, my technique activates... But that only works as an activation mechanism, I don't need to switch every time I clap." Todo explained confidently, cursed energy dancing around his fist. "That's my Boogie-Woogie."
Jogo listened in silence, a sigh escaping his lips as he wiped the saliva from his lips.
"You have a very irritating technique, Jujutsu sorcerer." And bringing his hands together, Jogo gave a disdainful smile, causing Todo to go on alert. "But I can see there's a limit you can't surpass with such a weak technique."
Bending down, Todo was surprised when he saw the curse place his hands on the ground.
"And that limit is me!"
'Damn.'
*Clap!
Feeling the heat rise beneath his feet, Todo disappeared seconds before a magma explosion, narrowly escaping a painful death.
But Jogo couldn't care less about that, after all, the sorcerer wasn't his true target.
But rather, the domain barrier that had stood throughout their entire confrontation.
Jogo smiled as he saw the magma engulf the barrier at once, the barrier cracking before finally shattering, a strong icy wind spreading for a moment before being swallowed by the infernal heat.
"Hey."
But expecting the magma to engulf whoever was responsible for the barrier, he opened his eyes in confusion when a voice came from beside him.
"I was dealing with some internal issues before you interrupted me."
Turning, Jogo's expression filled with recognition as he saw the young face of a boy watching him with irritation.
"How do you intend to compensate me, curse?"
Itadori Yuji had just entered the battle, but...
Something had changed in his eyes.
