2014: Tokyo, Japan. 12:30 PM

Gojo and a now-13-year-old Yuta were standing about 10 meters apart on a private outdoor training ground where Gojo had put multiple 'Barriers' around them while applying them with some 'Binding Vows' so no one could look inside or come inside them. He also had Shoko constantly feeding the 'Barriers' with 'Cursed Energy' just in case.

Gojo grinned at the very nervous Yuta. The reason?

This would be their first real spar.

They had fought a little so Yuta would be used to fighting and had proper form, but Satoru never hit back with real effort. This time, he will.

"Yuta, you better not be cocky and get Rika out here. I know you've improved a lot in the last couple of weeks I've been gone on missions, but it's not close to being enough to beat me. Even if I don't use my 'Limitless'." Gojo said with a cocky smirk as he stretched making Yuta roll his eyes and nod at him.

"Yeah I know, but if I can fight you when you aren't using your 'Limitless', I'm pretty sure I can fight almost anyone." Yuta said simply as he slipped his ring onto his finger, the output of his 'Cursed Energy' spiking as he did so.

"Come, Rika!!!"

"YUTAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!"

'Collapse!!!'

Yuta used the 'Extention Technique' of Nanami's 'Ratio Technique' on the ground with his fist to kick up a bunch of the ground. This made Gojo smirk as he strengthened his body with 'Cursed Energy' and punched the pieces of the ground that flew at him.

*BOOM*

"Not good enough!!" Gojo yelled out as he swung his fist powered up by 'Cursed Energy' at the pieces of debris.

*BOOM*

Gojo jumped out of the way as Rika punched at him, kicking up more debris as she punched the ground he was just standing on. Satoru smirked before whipping his head and arm up.

*BOOM*

Yuta's katana imbued with 'Cursed Energy' was stopped by Gojo's arm, making Yuta shake his head lightly in disbelief as he hastily threw his left arm up just in time to block a kick.

*BOOOOM*

Even though he managed to block the kick, it still sent him flying.

"DDOONNNTTT HHUURRRTTT YUTAAAAAA!!!!!"

Rika became upset when she saw Yuta get sent flying and immediately rushed at Gojo, who noted that her 'Cursed Energy' output had increased.

*BOOOOM*

'It's not just her output, her physical strength is stronger as well.' Gojo thought to himself as he skidded a couple of feet back after blocking Rika's enraged punch.

"I'm fine, Rika!!!" Gojo heard Yuta shout from behind him, making Rika look over his shoulder as she tried to follow up her attack.

An opening Gojo was going to take advantage of.

*ZIZIZ*

"Black Flash!!!"

*BOOOOM*

Rika was sent flying by the amplified punch just before Yuta appeared with his katana surging with 'Cursed Energy' above his sensei. Gojo smiled as he realized how Yuta already improved just from that single exchange.

'His whole body including his katana is constantly surging with 'Cursed Energy'!! Most 'Jujutsu Sorcerers' don't have enough 'Cursed Energy' to do this for even 10 seconds, much less do it in a fight!! He realized he couldn't have better control over 'Cursed Energy' than me, so he's trying to beat me by using a higher output!!' Gojo thought to himself with a smile. All these thoughts happened in a fraction of a second before Gojo leaned to the side to avoid the attack.

*FWOOOOOOM!!!!*

He grinned wide when the attack he dodged wasn't just Yuta swinging his katana at him, but Yuta creating a massive shockwave with his swing that destroyed the remains of the ground and shook the 'Barriers' surrounding them.

"Not good enough!!!" Gojo shouted out as he slammed a left hook into Yuta's head but was surprised when it only knocked Yuta's head to the side a bit.

'What the hell? My first punch sent him flying, why was that different?' Gojo thought to himself before he saw the flow of Yuta's 'Cursed Energy' with his 'Six-Eyes'. He couldn't help but smirk at what he saw.

'He's using the 'Reversal' of Nanami's 'Ratio Technique' so instead of dividing a target into lines and creating a weak point at the coordinates '7,3', it divides Yuta himself into lines and creates a strong point at the coordinates '3,7'!!' Gojo thought to himself as he saw Yuta throwing a left hook of his own.

Too bad Gojo grabbed his wrist with his right hand before he threw a hard elbow at Yuta's nose.

*BOOM* *CRACK*

Yuta jumped back about 5 meters from him and Rika appeared behind him.

*PANT* *PANT*

'Gojo-sensei is unbelievable!! I stacked 3 separate sets of lines on his body on top of each other, creating a weak point that would be 3 times weaker than the 'Cursed Technique' would normally make it. Even with all of that, it still only dislocated his wrist!! He healed it with 'Reverse Cursed Technique' before I could do anything else, so it was completely useless!!' Yuta thought to himself as he panted in exhaustion.

*CRACK*

"You wanna keep going?" Gojo asked with an amused smile as Yuta reset his nose before he healed it with his 'Reverse Cursed Technique' and continued his thoughts.

'Don't even get me started on his punches. The first one I was able to reinforce my body with 'Cursed Energy' and I still felt like I got hit by 10 trucks!! Even on the second one where I used the 'Reversal' of Nanami's 'Ratio Technique' to strengthen the point of impact, it still hurt like hell!! I had to heal both times with my 'Reverse Cursed Technique' and these are just his normal attacks with 'Cursed Energy' without using his 'Limitless' at all!!!' Yuta thought to himself in surprise before slapping himself and responding to the question.

"I can still fight!!" He shouted before he shot forward at Gojo again with Rika behind him.

*BOOOOOOM*

Gojo grinned as Yuta swung his sword at him when he got about 3 meters in front of him, again creating a massive shockwave and forcing Gojo to dodge to his left.

*BOOOOM*

The instant after Gojo started moving to his left, Rika appeared next to him swinging her massive fist at his left side, forcing him to block her punch. Yuta abandoned his katana and threw his fist forward.

Gojo's grin turned into a full-blown smile as brought his arms up to block the punch because he saw the black sparks appear on Yuta's fist.

"Black Flash!!!*

*BOOOOOM!!!!* *CRACK*

Gojo felt his arm get snapped from the punch even though he blocked it and covered his arms in 'Cursed Energy'. He immediately healed it with the 'Reverse Cursed Technique' as he looked at Yuta, who had entered 'The Zone' after hitting his 'Black Flash'.

'Even if I managed to hit a 'Black Flash', he already healed from all the damage!! I have to catch him off guard with something strong if I want to make any difference.' Yuta thought to himself as he relished in the feeling of the power-up and his newfound understanding of 'Cursed Energy' from hitting a 'Black Flash'.

"Rika, you do it too."

"YYEESSS YUTAAAAA!!!!!"

After talking to Rika, Yuta prepared to charge knowing very well he was probably going to get knocked out within the next minute, but he had to do what he had to do.

*BOOM*

Yuta left behind a small crater in the ground as he shot in Gojo's direction with Rika right behind him. The white-haired man grinned at the two approaching.

That grin grew wider as he saw Yuta swing his sword at the torn-up ground.

'Collapse!!'

*BOOOOM!!!*

Yuta once again used the 'Extension Technique' of the 'Ratio Technique' that destroyed the ground and kicked up more rubble. Gojo grinned at the boy's attempt to create cover.

'Too bad that won't work on me.' Gojo thought to himself with a grin and he punched some of the debris out of the way before it could hit him.

His grin grew wider as saw Rika appear on his left side and Yuta on his right because he noticed something interesting about the flow of their 'Cursed Energy'.

'Rika is using the 'Ratio Technique' while Yuta's using that stacked version of it again. It seems he can do it completely at will. Honestly, there aren't a lot of 'Grade 1' 'Jujutsu Sorcerers' that could survive this attack, let alone fighting both Yuta and Rika at the same time for this long.' Gojo thought to himself with a proud smirk.

Right before the two powered-up punches landed, Gojo grabbed Rika's wrist and threw her at Yuta as hard as he could, sending the two flying toward the 'Barrier'

Gojo disappeared in a burst of speed and reappeared in the two's flight path with his fist covered in 'Cursed Energy'.

Yuta looked over his shoulder and his pupils shrunk when he saw the black sparks on Gojo's fist as he threw it forward.

*ZIZIZIZ*

"Black Flash!!"

*BOOOOOM!!!! *COUGH*

Yuta spat out spit and blood as he was punched unbelievably hard in the back.

As he felt his world turn dark, he realized he needed to do something before he was knocked out. He turned to Rika and gave her his best smile.

"I'm fine, Rika-chan. Don't be mad, I'll wake up soon." Yuta told her with a soft smile as he fell asleep in Rika's arms.

"Hahaha!! You've completely exceeded my expectations, Yuta!!" Gojo said as he walked over to the unconscious boy in the curse's arms.

"GRRRRRRRR"

Gojo sweat-dropped when Rika blocked him from picking up Yuta.

"Rika, I'm sorry for hitting Yuta so hard but I gotta take him out of these 'Barriers' so Shoko can heal him since he can't do it himself."

"MMMM" *BOOOOM* *CRACK*

Gojo's sweat-drop got much larger when Rika just hummed and punched the hell out of the 'Barrier', cracking it.

"I can just take them down you know…" He muttered to himself before he took what was left of the 'Barriers' down, revealing Shoko and Yaga, who had watched the entire fight unknown to Yuta.

Yaga just looked at the boy in the curse's arms for a few seconds before looking at Gojo.

"Satoru, train this kid well. I mean it. With his insane potential, he'll surpass you before you know it." The man said getting a laugh from his old student.

"Hahaha, don't worry, Sensei, I'll always be the 'Strongest'." Gojo said arrogantly making Yaga scoff.

*SCOFF*

"Just do it well. I've gotta go get back to work and you two do too!!" Yaga shouted at both of them. He let out a sigh when Gojo smiled at him and Shoko didn't even react to the scolding.

"Whatever…" He mumbled as he turned around and walked away. Gojo looked back at the unconscious Yuta.

'Surpass me, huh?'

.

.

Yuta and Gojo were out on the training grounds after their spar. Yuta was sitting on the ground and Gojo was standing in front of him

"You feeling better, Yuta?" Gojo asked the boy who just deadpanned at him before covering his right hand in 'Positive Energy', which made Gojo sweat-drop.

"Right, you can use the 'Reverse Cursed Technique'. I always forget about that..." Gojo mumbled which made Yuta sigh. Gojo ignored his student as he started the quick lesson he wanted to give after that.

"I bet you feel great about beating the hell out of an 13-year-old, Satoru." Before he could speak, he was cut off by Shoko, who had healed Yuta and was now drinking from a bottle of sake Gojo gave her for helping. Yuta sweat-dropped when he saw that while Gojo just ignored her.

"Alright!! I've got another lesson for you; my precious little student!!" Gojo shouted as the whiteboard and labcoat returned, making Yuta's sweat-drop grow.

'Why can't he just tell me instead of doing all this?' Yuta thought to himself in exasperation. Gojo just smirked at him.

"Because it's more fun that way." Satoru said like he could hear Yuta's thoughts, which made the boy pout.

*SLAP* "AHH!! Stop doing that!!"

"Anyway!!" Gojo shouted out as he ignored his student's complaints. He turned to the whiteboard and drew a stick figure and drew a square surrounding it. Gojo turned back to Yuta with a smile.

"What I'll be telling you about today is something called 'Barrier Techniques', which are 'Cursed Techniques' that employ 'Barrier' zones to trap someone or something inside," Gojo explained briefly. After making sure Yuta was paying attention, he continued.

"To create a barrier, an individual constructs a formula within themselves from scratch, adds empowered words, and then flows 'cursed energy' through the formula to activate the 'Cursed Technique'. I created a few of them to make sure nothing bad would happen from our fight." Gojo explained getting a nod and a look of understanding from Yuta.

"There are 'Barriers' that are very simple to make and 'Barriers' that are very complicated to make. For example…" Gojo trailed off as he brought his hand in front of his chest with his index and middle fingers pointed up.

"Emerge from the darkness, blacker than darkness. Purify that which is impure."

A dark, almost liquid-like matter drips down from the sky to form the outer barrier wall in the shape of a half-sphere. Gojo grinned down at Yuta, who was watching the process with awe in his eyes.

"This is called a 'Curtain', a 'Barrier' with the goal of hiding 'Jujutsu' from outside viewing. Anything within this will be imperceivable from outside view, preventing non-sorcerers from being able to see any jujutsu or cursed spirit activity inside. When I teach you about 'Binding Vows' these 'Barrier Techniues' will become a lot more useful." Gojo explained as the 'Curtain' covered the area they were in.

Gojo put his hand on his chin and tilted his head back and forth lile he was trying to decide something before he nodded with a mischievous smile on his face.

"I was originally going to wait for Kusakabe to teach you, but it'll be better if you already know it so he can help you improve it." Gojo said as he took a couple steps back.

Yuta saw him go into a low stance like he was about to draw a katana he didn't have. He watched as a barrier was created in a small circle around Gojo.

"This is what's known as 'Simple Domain'. You'll need to know this to learn Kusakabe's sword style that's called 'New Shadow Style'. You won't really get everything right now because I haven't explained 'Domain Expansion', but just know that learning 'Simple Domain' will help you a bunch in the future and make lots of stuff easier to learn." Gojo went on a bit of a rant that Yuta understood about half of, but nodded when he heard the end.

Gojo watched as Yuta stood up and looked at him closely before crouching down in a similar position to him while grabbing his sheathed katana with both hands.

He grinned as he watched his student preformed a perfect 'Simple Domain'. Once Yuta let it drop, Gojo walked over to him, making him look up at him.

"I'll let Kusakabe know I'm gonna drop you off for training. Perfect timing too, I need to go to America anyways. I'll be back before you finish your training with him." Gojo said with a smirk as he made his labcoat and whiteboard disappear.

Yuta watched as the man started walking towards the exit before looking back at him over his shoulder.

"Make sure your swordsmanship isn't just swinging your katana as hard as you can by the next time I see you." He said before he turned and kept walking.

Before he left, Yuta heard Gojo say one more thing before he disappeared around the corner.

"Because the next time I see you, you are gonna exorcise Rika."
