"Not bad, not bad, things are getting lively~"
Leaning against the railing on the rooftop, Gojo Satoru watched the dust rising below and casually whistled.
The dust was broken by a figure as the curse spirit at the front was sealed into a mirror in an instant, only to be shattered by the curse spirits pushing in from behind.
Just as the second curse spirit stepped on its fallen companion's remains, a pale fist smashed down on its head, caving in its face. It flew backward like a broken kite, crashing into a group of curse spirits behind it.
The curse spirits that were knocked down were trampled by those following them. Even with their bodies full of holes, they still got back up, letting out hoarse roars as they fearlessly charged at the two in front of them.
Several more curse spirits were sent into the mirror and shattered. Hikigaya Hachiman's worried voice called out from behind Yukinoshita Yukino.
"Hey! Yukinoshita, I can't take much more of this. Should we retreat?"
His cursed energy was nearly depleted. What little he had left had been used up when Hayashizaki forced him to use his techniques on that white-haired man.
Now, during the fight, he had hardly used any techniques before running out of energy.
This was a serious problem, especially when they were being attacked by curse spirits. He felt completely betrayed by Hayashizaki.
"Just go!"
Yukinoshita Yukino didn't even glance at him. After throwing one curse spirit to the ground using Aikido, she kicked its head off.
"I can handle this by myself."
That's really impressive.
Hikigaya Hachiman swallowed hard and quickly sealed away a few more curse spirits. After emptying his cursed energy, he hurriedly retreated from the battlefield.
He understood that staying on the battlefield without cursed energy would only add trouble for Yukinoshita Yukino.
"Even if you're weak, you still have good judgment."
Gojo Satoru, who was watching the scene unfold from the rooftop, saw Hikigaya Hachiman staggering away from the battlefield and offered his comment at just the right moment.
In fact, Hikigaya Hachiman temporarily withdrawing from the fight was a good thing for Hayashizaki. With him out of the way, there would be no one else competing with Yukinoshita Yukino for kills.
Sitting on the shrine, he watched the points rolling in and grinned widely.
Even though each curse spirit didn't give much, it was still refreshing to see his points continuously increasing.
The curse spirits in front of them were only grade four, and at most grade three. Given Yukinoshita Yukino's current strength, while she couldn't clear the field with a single strike, it was no problem for her to dance through the horde using her physical fitness and reflexes.
When cursed spirits got too close, she used Aikido for defense, and when she attacked, she employed more agile combat techniques. The curse spirits that surrounded her were continually sent flying or tossed away. The girl moved like an elegant dancer, performing a deadly waltz amid the monstrous crowd.
Her hair danced with her movements. After smashing a cursed spirit away with a punch, Yukinoshita Yukino lightly jumped back a few steps, creating some distance from the spirits.
Then she took off the red hair tie from her slender wrist and tied her hair into a higher ponytail that was easier to manage.
This red hair tie was one she bought after seeing Hayashizaki tie his hair in a bow, inspired to style her own hair the same way. She had kept it on her wrist ever since.
Once she finished tying her hair, Yukinoshita Yukino slowly exhaled. A blue-green cursed energy surrounded her as she suddenly powered up her legs and lunged forward like a swift cheetah.
In this intense battle, Yukinoshita Yukino's Taijutsu skills were improving rapidly. Her movements became faster, and her punches packed more power!
"Hm, her fighting skill are pretty solid," Gojo Satoru observed from the rooftop, watching Yukinoshita Yukino down below as she fought like a martial god. "Her physical fitness is strong too. Is it because she has Sukuna sealed inside her?"
Being a vessel for Ryoumen Sukuna surely meant her body had some remarkable qualities.
But in reality, it wasn't that Yukinoshita Yukino's body was special; it was the system quietly enhancing her strength to match Hayashizaki's soul.
Finally, the system is proving useful. I could cry.
The battle ended quickly.
Yukinoshita Yukino, slightly out of breath, looked around at the cursed spirit bodies scattered across the ground, like a wheat field after a storm. A sense of satisfaction washed over her, like the feeling of stretching out after sitting for a long time.
Speaking of which, there must be over thirty cursed spirits here, right?
Did Gojo misreport the situation?
Miscalculations can lead to a loss in war. What if someone got hurt because of this?
Yukinoshita Yukino felt a twinge of dissatisfaction towards Gojo Satoru for his careless behavior. Luckily, the spirits were generally weak, and no one was injured.
Hikigaya was just out of cursed energy.
Sensing a gaze from above, the girl looked up to see the white-haired man on the third-floor rooftop waving at her.
"Oh, looks like I've been spotted," he said, showing no signs of guilt for his careless actions, instead smiling happily.
He didn't seem flustered at the unexpected enemies. The girl had good skills and decent character, so it was a shame she was taken by Hayashizaki.
After the battle, Hikigaya Hachiman, out of cursed energy, returned to Yukinoshita Yukino's side. Looking at the curse spirits sprawled around them, he couldn't help but admire her strength again. He silently vowed that he could annoy anyone in school, but never Yukinoshita.
They all started from the same line, so why was she so far ahead?
Was this the result of Hayashizaki's personal coaching?
[How's it going, Parasitic-kun?] Yukinoshita Yukino glanced at Hikigaya Hachiman before using her mental channel to call Hayashizaki.
[Great job! You did well!] Hayashizaki exclaimed loudly as he looked at the points he had already earned.
[Current points: 17,420]
What level of curse spirits are left? Bring them on!
Hearing Hayashizaki's generous praise, a small smile appeared on Yukinoshita Yukino's face, and her mood lightened.
But to Hikigaya Hachiman, this scene looked a bit scary—Yukinoshita Yukino looked down at the bodies she had caused to pile up around her, suddenly smirking with a very satisfied expression.
This…
Yukinoshita couldn't have some violent tendencies, could she?
