Gotcha Kaisen! Curses & Chemies!

For Ourselves

Focusing back in on a familiar building in the dead of night, three figures were seen together as the light from the moon illuminated their forms. Clenching his hands into fists and layering one over the other, a mass of shadows circulating his body in the process, Fushiguro gritted his teeth in indignation, almost as if he didn't want to do what he was about to do, but...he was obligated to.

Megumi: "Under Jujutsu regulations, Itadori Yuji and Kusahara Taiga, I will exorcise you as curses!"

In response to this statement, Yuji and Tai both had....very varying reactions to Fushiguro. Itadori suddenly jumped in shock and held his hands in the air as if he was being held at gunpoint, while Tai simply gave Fushiguro a deadpan expression before sighing and pinching the bridge of his nose.

Yuji: "W-Wait, I'm just fine, really! More importantly, you and I are pretty beat up. I dunno about Tai, but let's get to a hospital."

Tai: "I'm fine. Also, whoever you are, you do realize that even if you do decide to take us on, it's two against one, right? Even if you can use that Cursed Reversal Technique thing, you'll still have to deal with both of us and our respective strengths together."

Yuji: "Huh? 'Cursed Technique Reversal'...? What's that?"

Tai: "Jeez, dude, you really don't pay attention to anything, do you? He's something called a Jujutsu Sorcerer, and we're dealing with Curses. The hell do you think something with the name "Cursed Reversal Technique" is exactly?"

Yuji: "Good to see you again, too, Tai..."

While Yuji and Tai bantered between themselves, the markings on Yuji's body suddenly slowly faded away, signifying the lessened hold of Sukuna on Yuji's body. Along with that, the Gotchardriver on Tai's waist lost its colorful glow as the cards inside separated, but stayed inside of the driver for the time being. Noticing this, Fushiguro clenched his face in anguish for being unable to understand what to do or what was going on.

Megumi Thoughts: 'Kusahara knows about Gojo-sensei's technique? No, that's not what I need to focus on...I can't tell if the ones speaking right now are Itadori and Kusahara or the Cursed Objects....Damn it! What should I do?!'

As he debated his options and the shadows around him continued to circulate and grow in mass, Fushiguro's panicked thoughts became more and more sporadic, causing him to quickly lose focus and become conflicted on what to do....until.....

"What's the situation?"

Suddenly, standing at Fushiguro's side was none other than Gojo Satoru himself, casually holding his hands in his pockets as the white Kikufuku bag from last chapter was over his shoulder. Widening his eyes in shock, Fushiguro quickly undid his hand sign as he focused on the blindfolded man, causing the shadows around him to quickly fade into nothingness.

Megumi: "G-Gojo-sensei?! What are you doing here?"

Gojo: "Heyo! I wasn't planning on coming, but I got caught up in a little something with Kusahara-kun over there. But man, you're roughed up. I should totally show the second years~."

Leaning forward to take a closer look at Fushiguro's state and realizing that he was still more or less unharmed, a mischievous smirk crossed Gojo's face as he quickly pulled out a phone and began to rapidly snap pictures of Fushiguro's state, to which the boy in question clicked his teeth in annoyance and raised an arm to both block the flash of the camera and try to hide himself from the pictures, much to no effect.
