Jujutsu Kaisen: Nah I'd Adapt

Modulo: Chapter 15

Naturally, there wasn't a dedicated camera crew as if it were a sports game, but someone did end up serving as the medium through which people could watch the two sorcerers from different worlds fight.

An old man, shrouded in black, with white hair peeking out from under his cloak, wore a money-hungry smile and raised two fingers. "20,000 yen a person..."

With his words, crows flew around him, as if he were an angel of death. His presence was overwhelming...not in the sense of he's strong, but being creepy as fuck.

Naoto whispered to his mother. "Should we call the cops?"

Mayumi gave a disgusted look as she pulled Naoto closer to her. "Just give me the damn tickets, Ui Ui."

The man Ui Ui took no offense as he grabbed the money from Mayumi's hands greedily as he ushered Naoto and Mayumi into the broadcast room. She had been familiar with Ui Ui and his sister Mei Mei since they were a tag team, a grade 1-level threat in the golden era of sorcery.

As long as they had their money, they had no ulterior motives, unless it had to do with Ui Ui's sister, who had already passed. Mayumi wouldn't be shocked if he had her body hidden in his basement.

Not even a second later, he was talking to the person next in line, but something was different.

"Ho? How interesting...just so you know, it's still 20,000 yen a person." Ui Ui genuinely seemed shocked at the next person in line.

The two were about to enter the large tent, where the screens were placed, but were stopped when they heard a voice, one they were very familiar with.

"Ayo, Mayumi, can you spot me 20k!?" The voice caused Mayumi to freeze, not because she was insulted, but out of pure confusion.

She immediately spun around, Naoto doing the same. "Dad/Gramps!?"

Standing behind them was the one who left his family behind, with his overwhelming bumness—the strongest sorcerer in history, Naohiro Zenin.

He did a two-finger wave. "The one and only."

Despite being a grandfather, he looked younger than Mayumi. Had she known better, one could have mistaken Naohiro for a 25-year-old man.

The truth behind his immortality is in his adaptation to negative status effects. The moment his body started to deteriorate, it naturally adapted. The result is ageless immortality. No matter how long he lives, his body will never deteriorate again due to age-related causes.

Mayumi suddenly vanished from Naoto's side as she sent a drop kick straight at Naohiro's face. "You asshole!"

Before she reached him, he casually bent backward, making Mayumi fly over him and missing him completely.

Standing back up, he huffed a laugh in mock annoyance. "You're just like Naoya was! Why do you both like to drop kick me?" He turned back toward the direction she had flown, which happened to be next to the line, causing panic among the masses.

Ui Ui spoke up in irritation. "You can have your...'family reunion' INSIDE! Don't ruin my business!" His wrinkled hands clenched, holding the stack of bills.

This caused Naohiro to turn toward him with a raised eyebrow. "You say something, sister fuc-"

"DAD!" Mayumi appeared out of nowhere and grabbed his collar to drag him, making sure to pay Ui Ui on the way into the tent.

As she dragged her father into the tent, the first thing she saw was a mass of people in a circle, surrounding a pillar with countless screens on every side, displaying Dabura sitting amid debris.
