Jujutsu Kaisen: Nah I'd Adapt

Naohiro vs. Gojo

[Author Note]

I can't believe I have to say this, but just because he adapted to slashing attacks doesn't make him 100% immune to them.

People are comparing Ogi's slashes to f*cking 15-finger Sukuna dismantle/cleave, like, bruh. Why do I even have to explain this?

Now, here is Naohiro vs Gojo.

__________

I stare him down, and while he's smiling, I see he will treat me seriously.

Then...

*Woosh*

Satoru might've seemed like he teleported to an average non-sorcerer, but a sorcerer could see that he simply used his raw physical strength to shoot off toward me.

When he reaches me, I raise my hand to block but get confused...

*Pap*

I caught his hand with great difficulty. However, I was able to touch him.

He isn't using Infinity? No, he wants to feel me out.

Even though he doesn't know this, I've got to adapt to his infinity quick to prevent future issues. Getting it done early will put me ahead.

Giving a smile of my own, I lock on his hand before attempting to throw him. He throws a kick to the side of my stomach, to which I bring my left hand down to block.

*BAM*

It's heavy!

I go flying, roll twice, and bounce back up. I feel my arm put itself back in place. For some reason, Falling Blossom Emotion didn't activate.

The thing about Satoru is that he can pump as much cursed energy as he wants into himself since he has a nigh-unlimited amount if it doesn't burn out.

I've never tried this before, but let's see how high I can go.

If I am not able to match him in close quarters with my current strength, let's make this more interesting.

*BOOM*

To anyone watching, they would see a massive amount of energy explode from my body.

I'll make myself able to match him in strength...shit, it hurts, however.

Normally, one would need to take the steps required to improve their reinforcement slowly but with adaptation. I can skip that altogether.

It took Mei Mei many years to reach the 'peak' of cursed energy reinforcement, and I can force my way to the grade one level of reinforcement. Obviously, it's not as effective since my base strength hasn't reached that level quite yet, but it's a fantastic start.

This time, I rush towards him.

His eyes widen a little before sharpening, and he meets me in the middle of the arena. Our forearms clash, sending dust flying.

Suddenly, I feel my arm slowly get pushed back by an invisible force.

Satoru gave me his trademarked smile. He finally dropped his noble persona. "Thank you, I truly mean that. You are one of the people I can truly go all out on. Now, I wonder, can you understand me?"

I smile at him back but get somewhat confused at his last statement.

'clink'

Thanks, Satoru, that's one.
