A player in Jujutsu Kaisen

Kenzo last resort {77}

Seizing the opportunity presented by Dagon's distraction with Naobito,

Maki found herself reluctantly compelled to cooperate in the face of the common enemy, Dagon.

As they jumped Dagon, each move seemed to betray an unspoken competition, a clash of individualistic approaches rather than a harmonious alliance. Maki's raw strength clashed with Naobito's calculated precision, creating an awkward synergy that left both sorcerers on edge.

Dagon, sensing the disarray in their collaboration, attempted to exploit the discord. Yet, each time he sought to capitalize on their lack of coordination, Nobara, fueled by her own frustration, intervened with her cursed nails. Her attacks, while effective, served more as a disruption to Dagon's plans than a well-coordinated strategy with her companions.

In the midst of the strained collaboration between Maki and Naobito, an unexpected twist further escalated the chaos on the battlefield. Maki, seemingly fueled by a surge of determination or an unknown source of power, began to accelerate. Her movements became a blur, and her attacks, already formidable, now carried an intensified force.

Dagon, caught off guard by Maki's sudden burst of speed and enhanced strength, struggled to keep up. The accelerated onslaught took its toll on the special grade curse, and in a decisive moment, Maki's bowstaff found its mark. With a swift and precise strike, she managed to sever one of Dagon's arms, a testament to the overwhelming power she now possessed.

As Dagon initiated the regeneration process for his severed hand, Maki seized the opportunity to take the battle to a new level of brutality. With a swift motion, she grabbed the freshly regrown hand and tossed it toward Nobara, who deftly caught it with a dark smirk playing on her lips.

Capitalizing on the gruesome projectile at her disposal, Nobara activated her cursed technique, Resonance. A surge of cursed energy emanated from her as large, ominous black spikes erupted from the severed hand, targeting a specific point on Dagon's chest.

The grotesque scene unfolded as the black spikes pierced through Dagon's chest, causing him to convulse in pain. The resonance between the cursed technique and its target intensified the impact, amplifying the agony experienced by the special grade curse.

Meanwhile

As Kenzo faced off against the relentless assault of the three powerful Monarchs—the Frost Monarch, the Insect Monarch, and the Beast Monarch—he could feel the strain on his body and mana reserves intensify. The unrelenting onslaught had persisted for what felt like an eternity, and weariness began to settle in.

The Frost Monarch, with frigid powers at its disposal, unleashed waves of icy attacks, creating barriers of frost and hindering Kenzo's movements. Simultaneously, the Insect Monarch swarmed him with agile and venomous minions, making evasion a constant challenge. The Beast Monarch, with raw strength and ferocity, delivered powerful physical blows that tested Kenzo's endurance.

Despite Kenzo's remarkable skills and resourcefulness, the prolonged engagement was taking its toll. His mana reserves dwindled with each passing moment, and the Monarchs, keen observers, noticed the telltale signs of his diminishing magical energy.

Kenzo, however, refused to yield. Every strike, every maneuver, was executed with a calculated precision, utilizing the last reserves of his mana to fend off the relentless trio. The battlefield echoed with clashes of elements—ice, venom, and raw force—as Kenzo fought against the odds, determined to overcome the formidable challenge presented by the Monarchs.

The Beast Monarch, a towering embodiment of raw strength and primal fury, intensified its assault on Kenzo. Each thunderous blow carried the weight of a relentless beast, shaking the ground upon impact. The monarch's roars echoed across the battlefield, a cacophony of intimidation aimed at breaking Kenzo's resolve.

Taunting words accompanied each strike, the Beast Monarch reveling in the perceived weakness of its opponent. "Is this the best you can do? and to think you dare called yourself a monarch" The taunts were meant to demoralize, to shatter Kenzo's determination, but he remained steadfast.

Kenzo, despite the overwhelming brute force, met the challenge head-on. His movements became a dance of precision and agility, evading the crushing blows with a well-timed grace. The clash of elements continued as Kenzo unleashed his own barrage of magical attacks, combining spells and maneuvers to keep the Beast Monarch at bay.

Amidst the chaos, Kenzo's focus remained unwavering. He knew he couldn't match the sheer physical power of the Beast Monarch, but his strategic brilliance and magical prowess allowed him to stay one step ahead. The battlefield became a symphony of clashes, each strike a testament to the struggle between brawn and intellect.

As the Beast Monarch grew more frustrated, Kenzo seized the opportunity to counter, exploiting the monarch's momentary lapses. The ebb and flow of the battle showcased Kenzo's resilience and tactical brilliance, proving that even in the face of overwhelming force, a skilled sorcerer could hold their ground.

As Kenzo faced the relentless assault of the Monarchs, the dire situation prompted him to activate his Bond of Mentorship skill. The unique connection he shared with Satoru Gojo, his mentor, became a source of strength and strategic insight.

The air around Kenzo seemed to shimmer with a newfound energy as he invoked Gojo's wisdom. The mentorship benefits immediately manifested, enhancing Kenzo's critical thinking skills by an impressive 250%. In the midst of the chaotic battle, this boost allowed him to analyze the Monarchs' movements with unparalleled clarity, discerning patterns and weaknesses that were previously elusive.

But Kenzo didn't stop there. With a swift activation of another skill, he tapped into the bond even further, channeling its power to temporarily boost his own strength, resilience, and insight. The surge of energy enveloped him, granting a remarkable 500% increase in his capabilities for the next three minutes.

Empowered by the combined effects of the Bond of Mentorship and the additional skill, Kenzo became a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield. His movements became more precise, his magical attacks more potent, and his resilience unmatched. The Monarchs, momentarily taken aback by this sudden surge, now faced a sorcerer who had transcended his limits through the guidance and connection forged with his mentor, Satoru Gojo.
