Chapter 94: Gojo Satoru's Resolve.
Although he had only summoned 0.01% of Lady Katsuyu's main body, it was still quite large, about the length of his forearm.
Lady Katsuyu curiously looked around, her gaze finally settling on Tatsuro. She said, "Little Luo, how about you chat with me? I was about to die of boredom alone in there."
"Alright."
Tatsuro also chatted with Lady Katsuyu with great interest, but gradually he started to regret it. They talked from ten o'clock at night until two in the morning before she let him go, and she still seemed to want more.
Tatsuro, in any case, couldn't take it anymore and fell asleep first.
Lady Katsuyu, seeing Tatsuro-kun asleep, shook her head helplessly and said, "This child sleeps so early. I still wanted to tell him about things I've heard in the past."
Turning her head, she saw the big black dog staring intently at her. Then, as if having found a new successor, she moved closer and said, "What's your name? My name is Lady Katsuyu. Want to chat?"
...
A night passed.
Tatsuro woke up as usual. Having slept for only a little over four hours, he was currently sitting on his bed feeling drowsy.
Lady Katsuyu, who had chatted with Shura all night, saw Tatsuro wake up and asked, "Shall I brew you a pot of revitalizing tea?"
"No thanks, there are no tea leaves at home."
Tatsuro slowly got up and glanced at the scroll on the bed. He then went into the bathroom and took a cold shower. Although the weather was gradually getting colder, it was nothing to Tatsuro.
After a simple rinse, he walked out naked. Looking at the exhausted Shura, Tatsuro knew he hadn't slept all night due to Lady Katsuyu's pestering.
He squatted down, patted Shura's doggy head, and comforted him, "Go to sleep. I'll take Lady Katsuyu out in a bit."
"Aah! Ahem! Cough cough cough!"
A sudden sound startled Tatsuro. Shura seemed to be clearing its throat. It then spoke in human language, "No need, Master. I feel I've learned a lot this past night. I want to continue learning knowledge from Big Sister Katsuyu!"
"Holy crap! Shura, you actually spoke? What the hell?" Tatsuro exclaimed in surprise.
"Hmph hmph hmph! Of course, I taught him! By adjusting the vibration frequency of his voice with cursed energy, he can then speak!" Lady Katsuyu lifted her head proudly.
"..."
Tatsuro no longer knew what to say. Weren't animals not allowed to become spirits after the founding of the nation?
What is this then?
Already unsure how to explain it, Tatsuro attributed it all to the system, since it was the system that gave him the summoning technique. Besides, it was common for summoning beasts in the ninja world to speak; it just seemed odd in Jujutsu Kaisen.
Fushiguro Megumi's shikigami, it seemed, couldn't speak at all.
"Forget it, you two continue. Just keep an eye on the scroll, that's all. I'm going out for a run."
Unsure how to explain, Tatsuro chose to escape, leaving it for his future self to deal with. He put on his clothes and ran towards the training ground.
Watching his master leave, Shura lay on the ground and said, "Big Sister Katsuyu, I want to become stronger! Can you teach me how to become stronger?"
"Become stronger, huh? Let me think." Lady Katsuyu also didn't know how to become stronger; after all, she had lived for too long and gradually had no natural enemies. However, she knew Sage Art. She said, "Then how about I teach you Sage Art?"
"Sage Art?"
The moment Shura heard these two words, it felt incredibly awesome. It quickly nodded and said, "I want to learn, I want to learn!"
"If you want to learn, we'll have to change locations. I'll go put away the summoning scroll. We'll go practice in some other uninhabited place later."
As Lady Katsuyu spoke, she crawled onto the bed, covered herself over the surface of the summoning scroll, and then took it away with her.
...
At the training ground.
Panda and the others had already arrived at six o'clock. Maki, Yuta, and Toge were currently jogging on the track, warming up.
Panda, seeing Tatsuro approaching with dark circles under his eyes, stood up and called out, "You're so late, Tatsuro-kun!"
"It's you guys who are too early!"
Tatsuro jogged all the way to the training ground. Looking at the others running, he stretched his muscles and asked, "How many laps has Maki run already?"
"Ten laps already. If you want to catch up, Tatsuro, you better hurry."
"Ten laps, is it? Watch me speed up." As Tatsuro spoke, he got into a sprint stance and then dashed onto the track.
Just as he passed Zenin Maki, she caught him in a chokehold and said, "Old scores will be settled separately. I hold a grudge, you know!"
"It's already been two days, there's no need!" Tatsuro had just finished speaking when Zenin Maki forcibly stretched him. "Ow, ow, my back! It's breaking, it's breaking!"
Seeing Okkotsu Yuta and Inumaki Toge pass by, he shouted, "Good brothers, save me!"
"Good luck! You'll be saved once Maki cools down."
"Doll fish, bonito flakes!"
After encouraging him, the two gave a thumbs-up and left.
Tatsuro slammed his right fist on the ground and shouted, "You ungrateful bunch! Ow, ow!"
"What are you shouting for? I'm helping you stretch your ligaments."
...
Tokyo Principal's Office.
Gojo Satoru watched the students on the training ground through the window and said with a smile, "Youth is wonderful. It reminds me of those happy times when I was a second-year. Shoko, me, and Geto..."
"That fellow Suguru Geto disappeared for decades. What major event is he planning by reappearing in Tokyo now?" Masamichi Yaga stroked the beard on his chin, seemingly not understanding why Geto would suddenly appear at this time.
Moreover, the investigation these past few days had yielded no progress. He appeared suddenly and then disappeared suddenly. It was truly a headache, but he couldn't pretend he hadn't seen him.
After all, he was Suguru Geto, the Special Grade Sorcerer who had massacred hundreds of people ten years ago, not even sparing his own parents!
Although he was proud to have taught two Special Grade sorcerers back then, that was a lie. But he still felt regret and confusion over Geto's defection; after all, Geto used to be very kind.
At least, if Gojo Satoru, that traitor, had defected back then, he wouldn't have been surprised. Never mind how terrible he was; his arrogance wasn't just a recent development. He had toned it down a bit now; before, he practically looked down on people with his nostrils and even wanted to take on Master Tengen!
One had to know that the barriers that allowed Jujutsu High schools to function as strongholds for the jujutsu world, as well as the barrier techniques of numerous auxiliary managers, were all thanks to Master Tengen's power; their strength had been greatly enhanced. If Master Tengen were to die, the barriers throughout Japan would become incredibly vulnerable.
"His target..." Gojo Satoru paused, his gaze locking onto Okkotsu Yuta, who was running diligently. "He probably wants to obtain Okkotsu Yuta's power, then kill all humans and create a world of only jujutsu sorcerers."
"What a madman." Masamichi Yaga said, then paused for a moment, looked at Gojo Satoru standing by the window, and asked, "This time... will you end him personally?"
"..."
Gojo Satoru gazed out the window, seemingly unwilling to answer this sensitive question. After watching the students on the training ground for a while, he said:
"Mm, this time, I won't hold back."
