CHAPTER 30: SHOPPING MALL CRISIS
Six AM came too early.Tonji stood outside the shopping mall in Shinjuku. The barrier was visible even to normal people. A dark dome covering the entire building.Police surrounded the area. News crews. Worried families. Over a hundred people trapped inside."Status?" Tonji asked Nanami."Barrier is holding strong. We've tried everything. Can't break it from outside. The curse designed it specifically to keep cursed energy users out.""But I can enter?""You should be able to. Zero cursed energy means the barrier doesn't register you as a threat.""Should be able to? You're not sure?""This is unprecedented. The barrier's design is complex. But theoretically, yes. You can enter.""Theoretically.""Best we have."Gojo approached. "Ready for your first solo rescue mission?""Not really.""Good. Healthy fear keeps you alive." Gojo's expression became serious. "Inside that mall are innocent people. Civilians. They're counting on you. No pressure.""Thanks. That helps.""Just remember your

CHAPTER 29: COMBAT EVALUATION
Two weeks after the team exercise, Jujutsu High held official combat evaluations.Every student had to demonstrate their abilities. Get ranked. Prove their worth.Tonji was nervous. He'd improved a lot. Denizen had changed everything. But evaluations were official. Permanent. On record."You'll do fine," Nanami said. "Just fight like you've been training.""What if I fail?""You won't. Trust your training. Trust Denizen. Trust yourself."The evaluation arena was huge. Reinforced walls. Observation deck for teachers. Everything recorded.Gojo was judging. So was Principal Yaga. And several other senior sorcerers."Tonji Zenin," Gojo announced. "Combat evaluation. You'll face three controlled curses. Grade 3, Grade 2, and Grade 1. Time limit is thirty minutes total. Begin when ready."Tonji entered the arena. Drew Denizen. The blade hummed. Ready.The first curse manifested. Grade 3 greed curse. Made of coins and dollar bills. Fast but weak.Tonji didn't hesitate. Two strikes. Denizen c
CHAPTER 28: THE PURGER'S DISCOVERY
The Purger stood in the abandoned library. Reading.This was new. Reading. Learning. Seeking knowledge beyond just curse elimination.The book was about jujutsu history. Ancient records. Specifically, records about curse elimination attempts throughout centuries.And The Purger had found something interesting.Four hundred years ago, there was another entity like it. Called "The First Purger" in old texts.It had the same mission. Eliminate all curses. Count down to zero.It had been powerful. Incredibly powerful. Nearly succeeded.But then it was sealed. Trapped. Locked away by jujutsu sorcerers who feared it.The Purger read carefully. Analyzing. Processing.Why seal an entity that was helping? That was eliminating curses?The answer was in the footnotes. Small details. Easy to miss.The First Purger had started killing sorcerers too. Anyone who created barriers. Anyone who used curse manipulation. Anyone who perpetuated the curse system.It had concluded that sorcerers were part of
CHAPTER 27: TEAM DYNAMICS
One week after the Ikebukuro mission, Gojo announced a special training exercise."Team building!" he said enthusiastically. "You'll work in groups of four. Mixed experience levels. Learn to coordinate."The teams were announced. Tonji ended up with Itadori, Nobara, and Maki."Oh great," Nobara said. "I'm stuck with the zero cursed energy guy and the partial restriction girl.""And Sukuna's vessel," Maki added. "This'll be interesting.""Hey!" Itadori protested. "I'm more than just Sukuna's vessel!""Prove it," Nobara challenged.The exercise was simple. Navigate a curse-infested training ground. Eliminate all curses. Work together.Seemed easy. Wasn't.The training ground was massive. Forest terrain. Multiple barriers. Curses hidden everywhere."Strategy?" Tonji asked."We split up, cover more ground," Nobara suggested."Bad idea," Maki said. "Unknown number of curses. Unknown grades. Splitting up gets people killed.""So we stay together?""We split into pairs. Tonji with me. Itador
CHAPTER 26: FIRST HUNT WITH DENIZEN
The morning after the bonding ritual, Tonji woke up different.His body felt lighter. Stronger. More aware. Like every muscle knew exactly what to do.Toji's knowledge sat in his mind. Not controlling him. Just there. Available. Ready.He went to the training field early. Before sunrise. Wanted to test what he could do now.Denizen hung at his side. The blade felt perfect. Like it belonged there.Tonji drew it. Moved through forms.His body flowed. Every movement precise. Efficient. No wasted motion. Exactly like Toji's memories showed."Impressive," a voice said.Maki stood at the field's edge. Watching. Evaluating."You've changed overnight.""The bonding worked.""I can see that. Your stance is perfect now. Movement is clean. You look like a real warrior.""Was I not real before?""You were learning. Now you know." Maki drew her sword. "Want to test it?""Against you?""I won't go easy.""I wouldn't want you to."They fought.It was fast. Brutal. Beautiful.Maki attacked with her p
