9: The Calm Before the Storm

The city of Tokyo was a tapestry of lights as Miyako Gojo and Gojo Satoru navigated through the vibrant streets of Shibuya. Neon signs flickered overhead, casting their glow on the bustling sidewalks below. Despite the lively atmosphere, an undercurrent of tension lingered in the air, a palpable sense of anticipation for the storm that loomed on the horizon.

As they walked, Miyako couldn't shake the feeling of unease that gnawed at her gut. The map they had recovered from Geto Suguru's meeting revealed a sinister plan-a coordinated attack on multiple key locations throughout Tokyo. Each target represented a vital piece of the city's infrastructure, and if Suguru's group succeeded, the consequences would be catastrophic.

"Satoru, do you think Suguru's group is planning something big?" Miyako asked, her voice barely above a whisper, as they manoeuvred through the throngs of people.

Gojo nodded, his blindfolded gaze fixed on the path ahead. "Yeah, I think so. If those targets on the map are any indication, they're gearing up for a large-scale assault. We need to move fast, but we also need to be smart about it. We can't afford to tip them off."

Miyako's mind raced with the implications of their discovery. Suguru, once their friend and ally, had become their greatest adversary. His vision for the future of the jujutsu world was at odds with everything she believed in, and she knew they had to stop him before it was too late.

"Do you think we should involve the other instructors?" Miyako asked, casting a sidelong glance at her brother.

Gojo shook his head. "Not yet. We need to gather more information first. If we involve too many people, we risk alerting Suguru's group. Let's keep this between us and a few trusted allies for now. Once we have a solid plan, we can bring in the others."

Miyako nodded, understanding the need for discretion. Suguru was cunning, and his followers were loyal. Any misstep could give them an advantage. As they walked, she thought about the potential targets marked on the map. Each one was a potential battlefield, and the fate of Tokyo hung in the balance.

"We need to figure out which target is the most important," Miyako said, her voice tinged with urgency. "If we can disrupt their plans at a key point, it might be enough to derail the entire operation."

Gojo agreed. "Let's focus on the government buildings. They're usually heavily guarded, but if Suguru's group can breach them, it would create chaos. We'll need to find out when they're planning to strike and how they're going to do it."

As they continued through the streets of Shibuya, their conversation turned to strategy and tactics. They discussed possible ways to gather more information, weighing the risks and rewards of each approach. By the time they reached their destination-a small café tucked away in a quieter part of the district-they had formulated a rough plan of action.

Seated at a corner table, Miyako spread out the map they had recovered from Suguru's meeting. It was a large, detailed map of Tokyo, with various locations marked in red circles. Each circle represented a potential target for Suguru's group, and there were more than a dozen spread across the city.

"This is what we're up against," Miyako said, her voice grim as she traced a finger over the map. "These are the targets Suguru's group is planning to hit. We need to find out when and how they're going to do it."

Gojo leaned forward, his gaze fixed on the map. "We'll need to gather more intel. Find out who's involved, where they're meeting, and what their plans are. The more we know, the better prepared we'll be to stop them."

Miyako nodded, her mind already racing with possibilities. They would need to be creative and resourceful if they wanted to outmanoeuvre Suguru's group. But she was determined to do whatever it took to protect Tokyo and the people she cared about.

As they continued to discuss their plans, the café's door opened, and Shoko Ieiri walked in. Dressed in her usual white lab coat, her expression was serious as she approached their table.

"Hey, what's going on?" she asked, her gaze flicking between Miyako and Gojo. "You two look like you're planning something big."

Miyako glanced at Gojo before turning back to Shoko. "We were. We infiltrated Suguru's meeting and recovered this map. It shows their planned targets across Tokyo. We're trying to figure out what to do next."

Shoko's eyes widened in alarm as she examined the map. "This is serious. If Suguru's group succeeds, it could cause chaos throughout the city. Do you need any help?"

Gojo nodded. "We might. Right now, we're trying to gather more information. We need to know when they're planning to strike and who's involved. Can you keep an eye on the school's medical wing? Make sure everyone's prepared in case things go south."

Shoko nodded, her expression determined. "Absolutely. I'll make sure we're ready for anything. Just be careful, okay? If Suguru's group is this organized, we can't afford any mistakes."

Miyako appreciated Shoko's calm presence. As a skilled doctor and a trusted ally, she would be invaluable in the coming days. With her support, they would have a better chance of stopping Suguru's dangerous plans.

As Shoko left, Miyako and Gojo returned their focus to the map. They had a lot of work ahead of them, but they were determined to see it through. Suguru's group was a formidable opponent, but they would not let fear or doubt hold them back. The battle for the future of the jujutsu world had begun, and they were ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.

With a plan in place and their resolve strengthened, Miyako and Gojo left the café and stepped back into the bustling streets of Shibuya. The night was still young, but they knew that the calm before the storm had passed. It was time to confront Suguru and put an end to his dangerous plans once and for all.
