The courtyard buzzed with tension as Fu Gu and Raiden Shogun faced each other. Sparks of lightning danced around the Shogun, while Fu Gu stood confidently, his Infinity keeping him untouched by the fierce power of the Electro Archon.
Fu Gu focused, preparing to take the battle up a notch. **"Alright, Raiden Shogun… let's see how you deal with this."** He extended his hand, channeling his cursed energy into a concentrated point. The air around them began to distort as the power of his next technique built up.
"**Cursed Technique: Blue.**"
A sphere of concentrated, attractive force materialized in front of him, distorting the space around it and pulling everything toward it. The ground began to crack and debris flew as Blue pulled in everything nearby with immense force. The soldiers watching from a distance backed away, unable to comprehend the technique.
Raiden Shogun's eyes narrowed, but she remained composed, her hand gripping the hilt of her sword. With a swift motion, she swung her blade, sending a wave of Electro energy toward the sphere of Blue. The two forces clashed in the air, but Blue's gravitational pull disrupted the flow of her attack, scattering it harmlessly.
Fu Gu grinned, seeing the surprise flicker in Raiden Shogun's eyes. **"Not enough? Then let's see how you handle this."**
He thrust his other hand forward, summoning the repulsive force of **Cursed Technique: Red.** A shockwave of pure destructive energy blasted out from his palm, tearing through the ground as it surged toward Raiden Shogun. The sheer force of Red was overwhelming, its power pushing even the Electro Archon to brace herself.
Raiden Shogun's expression remained cold, but there was a flicker of recognition in her eyes. She raised her sword, summoning her own power. "You are indeed formidable," she said, her voice calm but tinged with steel. "But you underestimate the power of the Electro Archon."
She pointed her blade toward the sky, and the atmosphere itself seemed to respond to her will. The clouds swirled, darkening further, and bolts of lightning rained down, converging around her. With a single motion, she slashed through the air, unleashing a torrent of raw Electro energy that collided with Red.
The resulting explosion shook the entire courtyard, blinding flashes of light and deafening crashes reverberating in the air. But when the smoke cleared, Fu Gu stood tall, his Infinity keeping him untouched.
**"Looks like we're evenly matched,"** Fu Gu said with a smirk, though he knew the Shogun had only just begun to tap into her true power.
Raiden Shogun's gaze sharpened. "Evenly matched? You've seen nothing yet."
With that, she took a step forward, her sword glowing with an ominous purple light. The power radiating from her was overwhelming, and Fu Gu could sense the shift in the atmosphere. She was preparing to use something devastating.
**"If you're going to get serious, then so will I."**
Fu Gu brought his hands together, channeling the full extent of his cursed energy. The techniques Blue and Red began to merge, the swirling gravitational force of attraction combining with the repulsive energy of destruction.
His eyes gleamed with excitement as he called out, "**Hollow Purple.**"
A swirling sphere of purple energy formed in front of him, a perfect blend of attraction and repulsion that created a destructive force unlike anything else. Fu Gu unleashed it, sending the massive wave of Purple hurtling toward Raiden Shogun.
The power of Hollow Purple tore through the air, warping space as it traveled. Even the ground beneath it seemed to disintegrate, unable to withstand the force. Raiden Shogun's eyes narrowed, and for the first time, she raised her sword with both hands, gathering all of her power into a single strike.
**"Musou no Hitotachi."**
Her voice rang out like thunder, and in an instant, the blade of her sword transformed into a massive surge of Electro energy. With one precise slash, she cut through the very fabric of reality itself, her strike cleaving through Hollow Purple as though it were nothing. The power of her Musou no Hitotachi sliced straight through Fu Gu's Infinity, bypassing his ultimate defense.
Fu Gu's eyes widened in shock as the surge of Electro energy hit him, sending him flying backward. He crashed into the ground, his body aching from the force of the attack. **She… she cut through Infinity?**
As he struggled to stand, his mind raced. Gojo Satoru's Infinity was supposed to be impenetrable, but Raiden Shogun had just sliced through it like it was paper. **She really is on a different level.**
Raiden Shogun lowered her sword, her expression unreadable. "You possess remarkable strength," she said, her voice calm but authoritative. "But strength alone is not enough to defeat an Archon."
Fu Gu groaned, pushing himself up to his feet. Despite the pain, he couldn't help but grin. **"Damn… you're strong. Stronger than I expected."** He wiped a bit of blood from his lip, his heart still racing from the excitement of the battle.
Ayaka, who had been watching from the sidelines, rushed over to him, concern evident in her eyes. "Fu Gu, are you alright?"
Fu Gu waved her off, still smiling. **"Yeah, yeah. I've been through worse."** He glanced at Raiden Shogun, who was watching him carefully. **"Looks like I'll need to step up my game if I'm going to survive here."**
Raiden Shogun sheathed her sword, her expression softening ever so slightly. "You are strong, Fu Gu, and you have earned my respect. You may remain in Inazuma… for now. But do not think for a moment that your power makes you untouchable."
Fu Gu nodded, knowing full well that he had just barely scratched the surface of what this world had to offer. **"I'll keep that in mind, Shogun. I'm looking forward to seeing just how strong you really are."**
As Raiden Shogun turned to leave, Fu Gu couldn't help but feel a growing sense of anticipation. This world, with its powerful Archons and dangerous forces, was the perfect stage for him to truly test the limits of his abilities.
And though he had lost this battle, he knew one thing for sure: **He was far from done.**
