Heavenly Restriction User of the Gojo Clan: I Refuse to Be Cut in Half-Chapter 229: Satoshi’s Thoughts
Chapter 229 - 229: Satoshi’s Thoughts
Suddenly, Satoshi's phone rang. He pulled it out and saw that it was a call from Yaga Masamichi.
They were all students of Tokyo Jujutsu High, so he didn't need to be overly formal.
He answered the call directly.
Yaga's tone was unusually serious. He said there was something urgent he needed to discuss and asked him to come to the classroom immediately.
Satoshi nodded. "Alright, I understand. I'll head over now."
After hanging up, Satoshi frowned slightly.
He recalled Yagyū Hidetsugu's phone call that morning and immediately guessed that this was likely related to the two Sukuna Fingers.
Yaga's tone had been heavy. This definitely wasn't a trivial matter.
So, Satoshi quickly informed Yuki and the others, then bid farewell to the three girls.
Seeing this, Yuki pouted slightly. She hadn't even had the chance to ask Satoshi how he really felt about her after waking up.
She hadn't expected him to leave so soon.
But judging from Satoshi's expression, something serious must have happened at Tokyo Jujutsu High. Though disappointed, she didn't throw a tantrum.
"Satoshi, go. Don't keep Yaga waiting too long," Yuki said, bidding him farewell.
...
After Satoshi left, Mei Mei, who was beside Yuki, asked, "Yuki-sensei, now that he can't use his Zanpakutō, doesn't it seem like he's in danger in the world of curses?"
Whether it was because of his identity as a member of the Gojo clan or because of what he did nine years ago, Satoshi had far too many enemies. Without the deterrent force of his Zanpakutō...
Utahime spoke in a low voice. "Yeah. Yesterday at the plaza, quite a few people seemed to be probing about Satoshi's Zanpakutō. If he really can't use it anymore, I doubt they'll stay patient for long."
Yuki looked in the direction Satoshi had left and calmly said, "Don't worry. I don't think they can threaten Satoshi-kun."
"They couldn't do it nine years ago. They still can't now."
...
After arriving at the technical high school, Satoshi went straight to the classroom.
This was definitely related to the Sukuna Finger. He was eager to see what tricks those people were trying to pull.
In any case, there was no way he'd hand it over. If someone actually succeeded in reconstructing a complete Sukuna, that would be a real headache.
Soon, Satoshi arrived at the classroom.
He slid open the door and saw Satoru, Suguru, Shoko, and the others already inside.
They had all officially become students of the technical college and were now wearing the standard black school uniforms of Jujutsu High.
Even Shoko gave off a rare sense of heroic spirit under the uniform.
When Satoru saw Satoshi finally arrive, he clicked his tongue and said, "Satoshi, you're too slow. We've been waiting for ages."
He was still bitter about losing to Satoshi during the entrance exam.
Still feeling a little unconvinced.
Yaga Masamichi knocked on the table and said sternly, "Alright, everyone, quiet down."
"Now that everyone's here, I'll keep it brief. From now on, I want everyone on high alert."
Satoru, Suguru, and the others were all stunned. They were inside the technical college, which had a protective barrier. Why the sudden need for vigilance?
Yaga's expression was grave. "As for why, take a look at this first." ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
He distributed documents to everyone, including Satoshi.
Satoshi quickly picked up the document on his desk and began reading.
As he read, his expression darkened.
Before he could say anything, Satoru slammed the table. "This is complete bullshit. There's no way Satoshi needs Sukuna's finger to restore his Zanpakutō!"
He was the first one to witness Satoshi's power after awakening and had clearly felt the might of Sode no Shirayuki.
Yet, the Jujutsu General Directorate claimed that Satoshi had stolen a Sukuna Finger stored at the school to use its power to restore his Zanpakutō?
It was a blatant lie, clearly fabricated by those who didn't want Satoshi to regain his strength.
The world of jujutsu was immediately thrown into chaos. People condemned Satoshi, demanding the Sukuna Finger be turned over to the Jujutsu Directorate. The Zenin and Kamo clans were already preparing to intervene.
After reading the report, Suguru and Shoko both looked displeased.
They now understood why Yaga had asked them to stay on guard.
If they didn't provide a proper explanation, it was only a matter of time before all the opposing factions came knocking.
Even if the Gojo clan was one of the Three Great Families, against the united force of the jujutsu world, they might not be able to hold out for long.
The atmosphere turned heavy.
Yaga glanced around and sighed. "Satoshi, it won't be long before members of the Zenin and Kamo families arrive at the school. If we can't give them an explanation, things will become very difficult."
Satoshi shook his head and sighed softly.
There was no denying the power stored in Sukuna's Fingers, but he had no need for that power.
Let alone his Zanpakutō, he still had endless room to grow in Kidō. Once he fully mastered it and reached 100% progress, the power of Kidō he could unleash would be far beyond that of Sukuna's fingers.
He had a true golden finger. He didn't need theirs.
He didn't even regard Sukuna's broken fingers as valuable.
With that thought, Satoshi looked up and said seriously, "Don't worry. I won't take the Sukuna Finger for myself. But I do need to borrow it."
Everyone let out a collective breath of relief.
Shoko immediately asked, "Satoshi-kun, do you really need the Sukuna Finger to restore your Zanpakutō's power?"
Suguru was also surprised. "So, the reason you haven't used your Zanpakutō isn't because it was sealed, but because it needed some kind of repair?"
After all, he still couldn't accept the fact that Satoshi had exorcised a cursed spirit without even using his Zanpakutō.
Yaga Masamichi also looked at Satoshi intently.
This incident had shaken the entire jujutsu world, yet the Jujutsu Inspectorate still told them to hold off on mobilizing. That could only mean there were still people in the Inspectorate supporting Satoshi, resisting the pressure.
But as Satoshi's teacher, he also wanted to understand what his student was really thinking.
