Days turned into weeks as RJ's training with Gojo intensified. Each session pushed RJ to his limits, but he quickly adapted, his control over the Blue Void, Red Void, and the unpredictable Purple Void improving steadily. Gojo's teaching was rigorous but rewarding, and RJ's skills began to reflect his dedication and hard work.

One evening, after a particularly grueling training session, Gojo and RJ sat on the roof of their house, watching the city lights below. The calm night air was a stark contrast to their earlier intense training.

"RJ," Gojo began, breaking the silence, "you've come a long way since we first met. I'm proud of how far you've come. But there's something more you need to know."

RJ turned to his brother, curiosity piqued. "What is it?"

Gojo's expression became serious. "There's a reason I've been pushing you so hard. The world of jujutsu sorcery isn't just about learning techniques. It's also about understanding the threats that come with them. There are forces out there that will test you, and some of them are dangerous."

Just then, a sudden vibration shook the rooftop, and a dark, foreboding presence filled the air. Gojo's eyes narrowed behind his sunglasses, and he immediately went on high alert. "We're not alone. Something's coming."

Before RJ could respond, a figure emerged from the shadows—an old acquaintance of Gojo's, known for his menacing aura and powerful jujutsu techniques. It was a sorcerer of immense strength and dark intent.

"You've been training him well, Gojo," the sorcerer said with a sneer. "But I wonder how he'll fare against a real opponent."

Gojo's demeanor was calm but resolute. "We'll see. RJ, stay close to me. This is an opportunity to test your skills in a real fight."

The sorcerer launched a barrage of cursed energy at them, and Gojo immediately created a barrier to protect them. RJ, heart pounding, focused on his training. He summoned the Blue Void to absorb the incoming attacks and the Red Void to deflect them back. His control over the techniques was improving, but facing a real opponent brought a new level of challenge.

The battle raged on, with Gojo's effortless movements and unmatched power contrasting with RJ's growing but still imperfect abilities. As the fight progressed, RJ saw an opening and decided to try using the Purple Void again. He hesitated, remembering how unpredictable it had been.

Taking a deep breath, RJ combined the Blue and Red Void techniques, attempting to stabilize the Purple Void. The result was a swirling, intense force that struck the sorcerer with unprecedented power.

The sorcerer staggered, clearly taken aback by the sheer force of RJ's attack. Gojo seized the moment to strike decisively, neutralizing the threat with a well-placed technique. The sorcerer fell, defeated, and the area fell silent once more.

Gojo turned to RJ, a proud smile on his face. "You did well. Your Purple Void has become a formidable weapon. But remember, control is key. It's a double-edged sword. Use it wisely."

RJ, exhausted but exhilarated, nodded. "I understand. I'll keep practicing and make sure I'm ready for whatever comes next."

As they left the rooftop, Gojo placed a hand on RJ's shoulder. "You're not alone in this, RJ. We'll face any challenge together. Just remember, true strength comes from knowing when to fight and when to hold back."

RJ looked at his brother, feeling a deep sense of connection and gratitude. He had come a long way from the frightened student who first discovered his powers. With Gojo's guidance, he was ready to face the challenges that lay ahead, knowing that he had the strength and support to overcome them.

The night sky was clear, and the city below sparkled with lights. RJ felt a renewed sense of purpose and resolve. With his brother by his side and his newfound abilities, he was prepared for whatever the world of jujutsu sorcery had in store for him.
