Do you think Yorozu could 1v1 Mahoraga without needing to worry about Sukuna?

I go over everything I discussed with Tengen and Megumi. "So that's the rundown!"

He looked concerned. "I understand it...but what was that about getting my head punched off?"

Widening my eyes, I snap them to Shoko, who avoids my gaze before standing up. "It's getting late, so I'm heading back!"

SNITCH!

She starts to shuffle out of the Zenin compound.

I rub my forehead. "Mahoraga's first instinct is going to be to kill you to end the ritual, so I'm going to have you hide behind Tengen's barrier so we can AVOID getting your head punched off."

He sighed and sat down. "*Sigh* Why do you even want to do this? Why do you need to fight Mahoraga if there's a good chance that things can go horribly wrong?"

I look to the sky and lie back down. "I've hit a bottleneck. While I could fight Gojo repeatedly, I already know his whole schtick. Mahoraga works with adaptation, so he can counter my abilities in countless ways, which can give me a massive idea on how to improve techniques and hone them to a high level."

Fire...my only weakness at this point.

I'm still not an anti-Sukuna monster if I can't be immune to everything he's got.

At this point, even someone like Jogo could damage me. Obviously, he isn't going to one-shot me since some of my other adaptations help mitigate damage, but without high-level fire-based adaptations, a fire arrow will hurt...bad.

Jogo isn't my match in terms of speed and raw output, so while winning would be easy if I went all out, he has the potential to heavily damage me if using his high-level techniques like maximum meteor.

So, I'm going to use Jogo.

As soon as I realize he is born, he will be my fire adaption generator. I'd also like to see if I can get Mahoraga to use fire on me if he can somehow use it.

The problem is if Sukuna gets incarnated before that happens.

I want to prevent him from incarnating, but I've got no leads on Kenjaku, and he definitely has multiple plans to get the king of curses to incarnate.

Paying a visit to Yuji wouldn't be a bad option.

Megumi speaks up. "What's the point if you're already 'the strongest?'

I smile. "You like asking questions, huh?"

He stares at the sky. "Yeah, I just don't get you."

I huff a laugh. "You wouldn't be the first. I want to get stronger because I want to reach the point where nobody can even put a finger on me. I hate weakness, so I'm turning you into an accomplished man rather than a potential man."

Megumi nods with a neutral face.

I continue. "In any case, I'll still need to introduce Tengen to you. The old lady needs to see you before allowing you to summon Mahoraga. Be ready tomorrow morning."

Not waiting for a response, I stand up and stretch before walking back to my room.

...

The next morning, Megumi and I head to the Tombs of the Star. Since she is expecting us, we walk through the main entrance in the open instead of sneaking in.
