Toji even wanted the two sisters to back down, and he did not think the Zenin clan would give much money to two four-year-old girls.
But he still underestimated Zenin Maki's determination.
"Nii-san, we can work. Mai and I can work at Yorozuya to earn money!"
Hearing this, Yuto and Jogo showed a hint of helplessness in their eyes.
Yorozuya does not just handle ordinary commissions. Those commissions are related to cursed spirits. How could two four-year-old kids help?
Toji also shook his head. "You two are too young. Yorozuya does not need you."
Maki shook her head. "Nii-san, you can treat this as an investment. Accept the commission from Mai and me. When we grow up, we will join Yorozuya and become members."
"Don't you think the Zenin family needs a change? You alone are not enough, but what about me and Mai? As long as I become as strong as you, how can the Zenin family stop us?"
Maki thought she could convince Toji, but she completely ignored the fact that Toji no longer had any attachment to the Zenin family.
Seeing Maki pretending to be mature as she said this, Toji chuckled. "Can I call you Maki?"
"Sure, Nii-san." Maki nodded expectantly.
"Then Maki, do you think that with my current strength, I can directly destroy the Zenin family?"
Toji raised his eyes and asked.
Maki hesitated. If she had heard Toji say such words before today, she would never have believed the Zenin estate could be flattened by one person.
However, after experiencing Uraume's attack today and watching the battle between Toji and Uraume, Maki felt that with Toji's ability, it would be easy to flatten the Zenin family.
"Sure, Nii-san."
Toji asked in a low voice, "So for me, what is the difference between having you and not having you? I can destroy the Zenin family right now, so why should I wait until you grow up?"
Toji's question left Maki speechless. The future she imagined was just her own wishful thinking.
But since Toji was unwilling to accept them, why did he say such words in front of their father at the Zenin estate? Why did he give them hope? Why did he let them enter this Yorozuya?
Maki's heart filled with despair.
She and her sister had taken the initiative to step out of the Zenin estate for the first time, and they no longer wanted to go back.
"Sis, how about we go back?"
Mai silently tugged at her sister's sleeve. She was truly at a loss when Toji rejected them like this.
But Maki would not give up so easily.
"Nii-san, I am a child. I will stay at Yorozuya. From now on, Yorozuya is my home. You are the older brother, you have to take good care of us."
Mai looked at her sister acting shamelessly, her expression filled with shock.
In her impression, her sister had always been reasonable. What about now?
Mai realized that her sister had really given up her self-esteem to stay at Yorozuya.
Is it worth it?
There was a hint of doubt in Maki's eyes.
However, seeing Maki's determined gaze, she suddenly understood a little.
For those already in a pit, if someone throws you a rope, why not grab it?
Others have no obligation to save you. As long as you work for it and there is a glimmer of hope, do not give up.
They did not want to return to the Zenin estate, and they did not know how to go back and face their father. So, if they wanted to avoid going back and have a brand-new future, they really had no choice but to stay at Yorozuya.
Having thought it through, Mai understood her sister's approach.
At this moment, she was even more decisive than Maki.
Plop.
Mai knelt on the ground, placed her forehead on the back of her hand, and said to Toji firmly:
"Please take us in, Nii-san!"
"Please take my sister and me in!"
"From now on, we will give priority to Yorozuya in everything we do. Yorozuya's decision is our decision!"
"Nii-san, you must understand us, please!"
Mai's action plunged everyone present into silence. No one would have thought a four-year-old girl would do such a thing.
Yuta and Megumi were both stunned.
They could not understand why the two girls in front of them were so eager to leave the Zenin estate, and why they were so desperate to join Yorozuya.
Isn't this just a house? Is there something special about it?
Yuta and Megumi had not experienced the life of the Maki sisters in the Zenin family, so they did not know how comfortable their current lives were by comparison.
The two of them did not know that their future had already changed.
If Satoshi had not come into this world, Megumi and Yuta would probably have been orphans by now, right?
Megumi would be "sold" to Naobito by Toji, then snatched away by Satoru.
Yuta would live a lonely life until he met Rika, until Rika was born as a cursed spirit.
At this moment, they were undoubtedly happy compared to the Zenin sisters, so they could not understand.
However, Toji could understand.
Seeing Maki's determination and Mai's resoluteness, Toji was deeply moved.
Just as he was struggling with this, a clear voice rang out.
"Yorozuya has accepted this commission. From now on, you two are members of Yorozuya."
The sisters subconsciously turned their heads toward the entrance. A man with white hair and sunglasses appeared in the room.
Who is this person?
Seeing such obvious features, and hearing that this person had just bypassed the Zenin estate and even agreed to this, a name emerged in their minds.
Gojo Satoru?
However, when she carefully felt the cursed energy on the newcomer, Maki's expression changed.
The white-haired young man in front of her was not Gojo Satoru, but another bearer of a Heavenly Restriction.
This was the creator of that Zanpakutō.
Gojo Satoshi.
Gojo Satoshi actually appeared here at this time?
"Satoshi, you actually came out? Weren't you thinking about something in the forge?" Toji stood up from the sofa and looked at Satoshi with a very surprised expression.
