Anime Collector: Starting With the Malevolent Shrine

Bang!

Naoya's head was crushed instantly.

The Zen'in family members erupted in rage. Naobito, the clan head, shattered his wine glass in fury.

Watching the livestream, Mai could only cover her mouth in horror.

"Has he lost his mind?"

He had killed the Zen'in family's young master before all of Kyoto's Jujutsu Sorcerers!

❊❊❊

Not just Mai, but even Satoru removed his blindfold with a grave expression — not because of Daiki's strength, but because of his reckless personality.

"He killed Naoya Zen'in? This might make negotiations with Naobito easier."

Even so, the gravity didn't leave Satoru's pupils. Though Satoru sometimes broke rules himself, he at least understood the bigger picture and didn't kill indiscriminately.

Daiki was completely different — he had no regard for consequences.

Even the young master of one of the Three Great Families was just an ant to be crushed. With Sukuna's finger consumed and room for growth, if he were allowed to live, the Jujutsu World would become interesting.

Of course, such hopes were extremely slim.

❊❊❊

Things unfolded exactly as Satoru had predicted.

The reckless action instantly enraged all the Sorcerers present. Following the Inspector General's orders, they released their Cursed Energy, combining it together.

The entire Curtain filled with the terrifying Cursed Energy of Kyoto's Sorcerers.

"I'll lead the attack!"

The Sorcerers lacking ranged abilities could only engage in close combat. They released overwhelming Cursed Energy to intimidate with their superior numbers.

Ogi Zen'in, who had been waiting, saw his opportunity.

Naobito had grown old. The next heir Naoya had his head crushed by Daiki. The prestigious Zen'in family, one of the Three Great Families, found itself without a successor.

This gave hope to Ogi, who had abandoned thoughts of inheriting the family headship.

If not for his older brother having a son, and his own daughters Maki and Mai proving useless, the position of family head should have been his, Ogi's!

With these thoughts, he instantly unleashed the Cursed Energy of a Semi-Grade 1 Sorcerer. He leaped down from the Headquarters' hilltop, charging straight for the enemy.

Facing the Cursed Energy of all Kyoto's Sorcerers, Daiki couldn't help but smile.

Scattered, loose, lacking cohesion — the Cursed Energy looked massive but would collapse at a touch.

And this Semi-Grade 1 Sorcerer, Ogi Zen'in? Lacking ranged attacks, he could only charge forward blindly.

"You dare call this Cursed Energy? Let me teach you what real Cursed Energy is!"

The calm words drifted across the entire area.

The Jujutsu Inspector General and other Kyoto Sorcerers were stunned at these words.

Then they burst out laughing.

"This guy who just became a Sorcerer by consuming Sukuna's finger wants to teach us about Cursed Energy?"

"Fool! Do you understand what the Three Great Families of Jujutsu represent? What inherited Innate Techniques mean? What the Jujutsu Headquarters stands for!"

The Inspector General threw his head back in laughter, pointing at Daiki below with contempt. The surrounding Sorcerers joined in his mockery.

As they jeered, the ground began to tremble. The sneering Sorcerers looked in bewilderment at the violently shaking stones beneath their feet.

Then, terrifying Cursed Energy erupted with Daiki at its center.

Boom!

The Cursed Energy surged upward like a mighty river, endless in its flow.

With Daiki at its epicenter, the energy shot straight toward the heavens.

Crack—

A crisp shattering sound rang out.

The Curtain set up by the Sorcerers cracked and split open, unable to withstand the sheer force of this terrifying Cursed Energy.

The Inspector General's sneer cut off abruptly, as if someone had grabbed him by the throat. The other Sorcerers' faces transformed into masks of terror.

❊❊❊

Through the screen, Satoru lost his usual composure and stood up. Even at this distance, they could feel that sense of hopeless suffocation.

This guy hadn't gotten his Cursed Energy just from consuming Sukuna's finger.

❊❊❊

In Italy, Suguru's mouth twitched.

"So last time when he barely showed his hand, that was already the limit for Sorcerers like me?"

❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊

Charging down the hill, Ogi forcefully stopped in his tracks. The fierce Cursed Energy felt like a dull blade slicing into his facial muscles.

"This... this is... what incredible Cursed Energy!" He stared blankly, eyes wide.

With such vast and mighty Cursed Energy, could he withstand even a single punch?

Daiki's gaze locked onto the charging Ogi.

"Come!" The indifferent words rang out.

Ogi looked at Daiki once, then turned tail and ran.

'Come', my ass. This was completely beyond his ability to fight!

No one in the crowd sneered at his retreat — they knew it was the only sensible choice.

۞ Black Flash! ۞

But where could he run?

With Cursed Energy equivalent to 129 Sukuna's Fingers, combined with superhuman strength from the Yin-Yang Primordial cultivation, Daiki casually unleashed a Black Flash, augmentating his already overpowered attack.

A super-massive black lightning bolt exploded in the air.

Boom!

A black electric arc pierced through flesh.

Ogi's body twisted within the spatial distortion of the arc.

Bang!

He exploded!

Special Grade 1 Sorcerer, Ogi Zen'in, fell!

The Sorcerers on the Headquarters' hilltop watched in horror.

❊❊❊

Every Sorcerer viewing the livestream fell silent.

"Is this... Black Flash?" Shoko Ieiri, of Tokyo Jujutsu High, whispered in disbelief.

This was nothing like the Black Flash she remembered.

She couldn't think of any other technique that could do this — after all, Sorcerers' abilities were limited, mostly confined to their Innate Techniques.

Powerful attacks beyond Innate Techniques were almost unheard of.

❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊❊

"This... this guy is a monster, right?"

In the oppressive atmosphere, several Sorcerers' minds shattered.

None of them could withstand such a super-massive Black Flash.

"It must be luck — Sorcerers can't deliberately use Black Flash!" The Inspector General's voice wavered as he scrambled to rally their morale, "If we attack together, he'll surely fall! The glory of the Jujutsu World belongs to us! All Kyoto Sorcerers, hear my command! Charge! Crush him in one strike!"

He shouted sternly.

The Sorcerers exchanged glances, then gritted their teeth and charged down the hill.

❊❊❊

Watching through the screen, Satoru's face darkened, "This old fool is using Sorcerers' lives to bridge the Cursed Energy gap with Daiki Tsukasa."

Though it was a death sentence, the Sorcerers still charged — partly for the honor of Sorcerers, partly because they dared not resist.

This was the real reason Satoru hadn't killed the Jujutsu Headquarters' top brass. This generation was beyond hope. He could only personally train the next generation of Sorcerers.

He and the other Sorcerers watching the livestream felt their hearts constrict.

These were all living people!

Even a cold-blooded executioner would hesitate, right?

Masamichi Yaga, principal of Tokyo Jujutsu High, spoke in a low voice.

"Daiki Tsukasa, this is a test of humanity. How will you resolve this when facing these ordinary Sorcerers — Holy shit, you're just killing them directly!"
