Ieiri Shoko burst out laughing mercilessly.
"Hahahaha, Suguru, I never thought you'd have a day like this!"
"How dare you come here in your current state?"
"Do you know your Special Grade Curse User arrest warrant still hasn't been revoked?"
"It still hasn't been revoked even after I died?" Geto Suguru blinked.
"Do you think Kusakabe was joking when he said you'd been written into history books?"
Ieiri Shoko smiled.
"He was telling the truth."
"Although the higher-ups haven't officially revised the textbooks yet, the agenda has already passed. They're just waiting for the right time to update them."
Geto Suguru smiled.
"That's... truly an honor."
"An honor?" Ieiri Shoko was puzzled.
"I died for the sake of eliminating Cursed Spirits and have no regrets."
Geto Suguru calmly said:
"As long as history records my life fairly, how could I not feel honored?"
"Is eliminating Cursed Spirits really that ugly?"
"No."
"It's a sacred thing."
"Even now, I still believe so."
"This is righteousness."
"I should have no regrets, whether in death or after resurrection."
Ieiri Shoko fell silent.
"Those aren't words one would expect from someone resurrected by the King of Curses."
Masamichi Yaga adjusted his sunglasses.
"If you truly want to eliminate Cursed Spirits, then your first step should be cooperating with Kenjaku to cut down the current largest Cursed Spirit faction—the King of Curses' forces."
"I originally thought I would do that too," Geto Suguru admitted.
"It seems talking with the King of Curses caused you to abandon your extreme ideas?" Masamichi Yaga asked.
"If Satoru were here, he probably wouldn't ask that question."
Geto Suguru smiled.
"Although Teacher Yaga is my mentor, you still don't understand me."
"I'd like to hear the explanation."
"I want to eliminate Cursed Spirits, but not in the literal sense."
Geto Suguru rested his cheek on one hand and smiled.
"The true reason I want to eliminate Cursed Spirits is to protect the Jujutsu Sorcerer community."
"I believe that humans without Jujutsu talent are merely monkeys that have yet to fully evolve."
"And these monkeys continuously produce Cursed Spirits."
"Meanwhile, only Jujutsu Sorcerers can exorcise them."
"Isn't that simply creating trouble for us?"
"Those hairless monkeys do nothing but that. How could I not despise them?"
Geto Suguru wasn't lying.
In the original work, the root cause of his desire to eliminate Cursed Spirits was the ignorance of ordinary people.
In Geto Suguru's eyes, he had protected them and tolerated them.
Yet instead of gratitude, they continuously persecuted Jujutsu Sorcerers.
Even the two daughters he adopted were among the victims.
That was when his convictions shattered, and he chose to turn against the world.
The key wasn't eliminating Cursed Spirits.
The key was protecting Jujutsu Sorcerers.
That was the core of his ideology.
And once one understood that essence, it became easy to understand why he had so many followers.
In comic book terms, he was Magneto—an extremist supremacist.
"I don't understand."
Masamichi Yaga frowned.
"What does that have to do with cooperating with the King of Curses?"
"I'm not trying to cooperate with the King of Curses, Teacher Yaga."
Geto Suguru stopped smiling.
"You misunderstand me."
"I don't need to cooperate with him at all."
"As long as he fulfills the promise of the Dream Walk Migration, that will be enough."
"What do you mean?"
"The wish of infinite possibilities."
Geto Suguru spoke gravely.
"A predictable future is coming."
"Eventually, the great Japanese barrier will evolve into a planetary barrier enveloping the entire Earth."
"When that barrier is completed, the concept of the infinite possibilities wish will naturally cover the entire planet."
"When that day arrives, if I win the final battle and stand before the ascended God Mahito, then I only need to say—"
'Grant every human on Earth the talent to become a Jujutsu Sorcerer.'
"Tell me, can God Mahito fulfill that wish?"
Everyone froze.
Kusakabe Atsuya stammered:
"T-theoretically, yes."
"But God Mahito would have ascended from the King of Curses!"
"Would he really grant that wish?"
"If he did, wouldn't Cursed Spirits truly go extinct?!"
It had already been established that all Cursed Spirits are manifestations of curses formed from the Residual Cursed Energy of ordinary people and Jujutsu Sorcerers.
Back when Yuki Tsukumo casually chatted with Geto Suguru, he once asked:
"If all ordinary humans disappeared, would Cursed Spirits disappear as well?"
Yuki Tsukumo had seriously answered:
"Yes."
Of course, she quickly added:
"Unfortunately, I'm not that crazy yet."
She had treated it as an academic discussion.
But Geto Suguru hadn't.
At that moment, he truly engraved that answer into his heart.
That answer became the theoretical foundation of his future path.
Clearly, even now, Geto Suguru had not abandoned this idea.
He had become even more extreme.
Previously, he only wished to exterminate ordinary humans in Japan.
But now—
He was targeting the entire planet.
Kusakabe Atsuya muttered:
"You're a genuine madman."
"The King of Curses must have had water in his brain when he resurrected you."
Unexpectedly, Geto Suguru nodded vigorously.
"I think so too."
"He actually believed that as long as Cursed Spirits no longer caused trouble and he personally managed them, turning the term 'Cursed Spirit' into history, I would stop targeting them?"
"How ridiculous."
"Right, I think so too—"
Kusakabe Atsuya suddenly froze.
He violently pushed his chair back and stood up.
"Wait!"
"What did you just say?!"
"The King of Curses plans to control all Cursed Spirits and turn the term 'Cursed Spirit' into history?"
"How does he plan to do that?!"
This was truly important information!
If Cursed Spirits disappeared, wouldn't Jujutsu Sorcerers themselves become obsolete?
Geto Suguru laughed.
"What are you thinking?"
"How could Jujutsu Sorcerers disappear?"
"Don't forget that the King of Curses promised that the Dream Walk Migration would never disappear."
"In other words, the wish of infinite possibilities will continue to exist as long as the King of Curses remains alive."
"With Eternal Life and Resurrection hanging in front of everyone, how could Sorcerers lose their jobs?"
"On the contrary, Jujutsu Sorcerers would flourish!"
Kusakabe Atsuya froze.
Masamichi Yaga adjusted his glasses.
"If you've paid attention to the actions of the higher-ups recently, you'd know they are no longer our allies."
"If they hadn't caused trouble, Gojo would already have purged them."
"Why?"
"Because of the eternal life promised by the Dream Walk Migration."
"We Sorcerers are already like this."
"Ordinary people are even crazier."
"Do you know why the Time Vessel Association existed?"
"Those old men hoped that after Tengen ascended to godhood, they would receive protection after death."
The Time Vessel Association had become history.
Yet the damage it caused back then had been immeasurable.
One could even say that both Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru became who they were largely because of the Time Vessel Association.
That had also been Geto Suguru's first step toward becoming a Special Grade Curse User.
Kusakabe Atsuya nodded thoughtfully.
Then he frowned.
"Wait."
"The Dream Walk Migration depends on the great Japanese barrier."
"If everyone becomes a Jujutsu Sorcerer, wouldn't the Dream Walk Migration end?"
"Wouldn't we still become unemployed?"
Ieiri Shoko pulled out a cigarette but didn't light it.
"Kusakabe, you haven't been paying attention."
"What?"
"The activation of the Dream Walk Migration requires the great Japanese barrier."
"But once it is running, it operates using the Residual Cursed Energy generated by intense battles inside the barrier."
"In other words, after activation, even if the great Japanese barrier disappears, it no longer matters."
Kusakabe Atsuya stared blankly.
"It... can work like that?"
"Not only that."
Geto Suguru raised a finger.
"You were wrong about Cursed Spirits going extinct."
"Remember how Cursed Spirits are born?"
"They are manifestations of curses formed from accumulated Residual Cursed Energy."
"If everyone on Earth became Jujutsu Sorcerers, then indeed, no new Cursed Spirits would be born in reality."
"But..."
"What about inside the Dream Walk Migration?"
Kusakabe Atsuya shivered.
He suddenly understood.
Geto Suguru smiled.
"So you've realized it."
"I'm not targeting the Cursed Spirits of the present world."
"I'm targeting the new Cursed Spirits born inside the Dream Walk Migration."
"And not ordinary Cursed Spirits."
"But Special Grade Cursed Spirits born from endless life-and-death battles between Special Grade Sorcerers."
"These would be unprecedented monsters."
"Monsters that have never existed throughout the entire history of the Jujutsu World."
Kusakabe Atsuya's face went pale.
He could already foresee the terrifying existence that would eventually be born.
And those monsters—
...would become Geto Suguru's prey.
Kusakabe Atsuya's words were not an exaggeration.
In the entire history of sorcerers, how many times have Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerers clashed with one another?
The most intense period was a thousand years ago; the era of Ryomen Sukuna's rampage was the peak of battles between Special Grade Sorcerers, and even true gods fell during that time.
Remember Kenjaku's wish? In the original work, he said he hoped to "return" to the most prosperous era of Jujutsu. This "return" refers to the era when Ryomen Sukuna ran rampant!
Why did Ryomen Sukuna cause such a massive prosperity of Jujutsu a thousand years ago? Why was it that, even though the human population a thousand years ago was far smaller than today, Cursed Spirits were born that far surpassed those of the modern era, excluding the "Four Great Disasters"? Even in modern times, yokai have been reduced to mere legends.
It was precisely because of Ryomen Sukuna's rampage!
In that era, Special Grade Curse Users emerged one after another, and Special Grade Cursed Spirits were everywhere, forcing Ashiya Sadatsuna to create the Simple Domain and propose the core philosophy of "having no choice but to charge forward."
And the current "Dream Walk Migration" is far more exaggerated than "a thousand years ago."
There is Ryomen Sukuna; there is Gojo Satoru; there are ancient Special Grade Sorcerers; there is Kenjaku; there is Okkotsu Yuta; and Geto Suguru is ready to join at any moment. What's more terrifying is that a thousand years ago, if you died, you stayed dead. One less Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer meant one less clash between Special Grade Sorcerers...
...but in the Dream Walk Migration, they can be resurrected! Even if you die, you can be resurrected for a second, third, or infinite number of death matches! In such an environment, what kind of Cursed Energy manifestations will be born, and what kind of exaggerated Cursed Spirits will appear?
Just thinking about this, how could Kusakabe Atsuya not tremble? How could he not be afraid?
Geto Suguru lightly clapped.
"Very good, Kusakabe, you understand me."
Pausing for a moment, he looked around and smiled.
"Now, Principal Yaga, Shoko, do you understand why I came to you for help? I believe if word of my resurrection gets out, some of my subordinates will return to my side, but those subordinates are far inferior to the current power of Tokyo Jujutsu High. So, can you help me?"
