Chapter 14 - Chapter 14: The Wheel Falls

The Subjugation Ritual continues.

​The blood splattered on Mirai's chest vanished in an instant, healed by his newly mastered Reverse Cursed Technique.

​Mirai looked at Mahoraga with burning eyes.

​It's not just a tool, Mirai thought. It's a god.

​In the canon manga, Ryomen Sukuna's Mahoraga was destroyed quickly by Gojo Satoru. But that was because it hadn't had enough time to grow. It hadn't adapted to Purple fast enough.

​But this Mahoraga... under Mirai's control... it had infinite potential.

​Swoosh!

​Mirai dodged another strike from the Sword of Extermination. The blade shaved a few hairs from his head.

​"Let's play," Mirai whispered.

​His hands formed a seal.

​"Toad."

​Smack!

​A long, pink tongue shot out from the shadows, wrapping tightly around Mahoraga's waist, momentarily restricting its movement.

​"Nue."

​Sizzle!

​Orange lightning illuminated the pit. The owl-like shikigami burst from the shadows, its wings crackling with electricity. Mirai adjusted its size to fit the narrow space.

​He leaped onto Nue's back. The shikigami soared straight up, carrying him toward the moonlit sky.

​Mahoraga roared. It flexed its massive muscles, shattering the Toad's tongue like wet paper.

​BOOM!

​Mahoraga crouched and leaped. The ground cracked under the force. It shot up like a cannonball, closing the distance to Mirai in a heartbeat.

​Its Sword of Extermination was raised high, ready to cleave Nue in two.

​Mirai looked down. He smiled.

​"Too slow."

​Poof.

​The moment Mahoraga swung its sword, Nue vanished into black ink.

​And in its place...

​"Max Elephant."

​BOOM!!

​The sky went dark.

​A colossal pink elephant—the size of a five-story building and weighing a thousand tons—materialized in mid-air directly above Mahoraga.

​Mahoraga looked up. Its vision was filled with pink skin.

​Gravity took over.

​CRASH!!!

​Max Elephant slammed Mahoraga back down to earth. The impact was cataclysmic. The Zenin estate shook as if a meteor had hit. Dust and debris shot fifty meters into the air.

​Five hundred meters away, Naobito felt the ground jump beneath his feet. He swallowed hard.

​Is it over?

​Inside the crater, Max Elephant sat on the hole it had created.

​But then... the elephant shifted.

​Slice.

​A clean cut appeared on the elephant's side. Mahoraga, missing its lower half, crawled out from beneath the weight.

​The golden wheel spun.

​Ding-dong.

​In seconds, Mahoraga's legs regenerated. It stood up, stronger and faster than before.

​It swung its sword. A slash of pure energy tore a trench through the earth, cutting through several buildings in the distance.

​"It adapted to the weight," Mirai noted, landing softly on the edge of the crater. "Ten Shadows alone isn't enough."

​Mahoraga lunged. It moved so fast it blurred.

​Mirai dodged, relying on his Sharingan's kinetic vision. He slipped past the blade and delivered a Cursed Energy-enhanced kick to Mahoraga's spine.

​CRACK!

​Mahoraga flew through several walls, buried under rubble.

​Click.

​The wheel spun again. Mahoraga burst from the ruins, completely healed.

​It charged again.

​"Rabbit Escape."

​Suddenly, the crater was flooded with white fur. Thousands of shikigami rabbits poured out of the shadows, swarming Mahoraga like a tidal wave. They bit, scratched, and blocked its vision completely.

​Mahoraga slashed wildly, killing hundreds of rabbits, but thousands more took their place.

​For a moment, the Divine General was blind.

​And that was all Mirai needed.

​The rabbits vanished instantly.

​Mahoraga blinked. And there, standing less than a meter away, was Mirai.

​His right eye was wide open. The geometric pattern spun violently.

​"Kamui."

​Mahoraga raised its sword—but then stumbled.

​Its left leg was gone. Erased from existence.

​Click.

​The wheel spun to adapt—but it was too slow.

​"Disappear," Mirai whispered.

​"Kamui."

​Space distorted around the Divine General.

​The right arm holding the sword vanished.

The torso vanished.

The chest vanished.

​Mahoraga roared, but its voice was cut off as its head spiraled into the void.

​The regeneration couldn't keep up with the erasure. The adaptation couldn't trigger fast enough.

​Finally, there was nothing left.

​Clang... Clang...

​The golden wheel fell to the ground, spinning on its side for a moment before settling in the dust.

​Silence returned to the Zenin estate.

​Mirai stood alone in the moonlight. He felt a new, terrifying weight in his shadow. A power that bowed to no one but him.

​"Hahahaha!"

​Mirai threw his head back and laughed. It was a sound of pure, unadulterated triumph.

​The Gedo Mazo.

The Army of White Zetsu.

Divine General Mahoraga.

​He had them all.

​A kilometer away, the sorcerers shivered at the sound of that laughter.

​On the rooftop, Naobito unclenched his fists. He let out a breath he didn't know he was holding.

​"He did it," Naobito whispered, his voice trembling with excitement.

​"The Subjugation is complete."

​"The Zenin Clan... is now the strongest."
