------------------------------------------------------------------------

A Week Later.

Tokyo, Shinjuku.

And so our heroes continued on their training for the following week, Yuta Okkotsu had come up with many convoluted plans and back up plans for each of his back up plans in case either Megumi Fushiguro or Satoru Gojo had lost and died.

Megumi Fushiguro had finished his conference with the UN and then Government a few days back and had gotten them to clear the entirety of Tokyo for their battle, a great feat to be sure.

He had also gotten his People and Mechamaru to work around the clock with capturing Curses, and by utilising Funeral Tiger's Incarnation – He now held about 31 Sukuna Fingers worth of Cursed Energy in reserves, a Truly Terrifying quantity.

The plans made by Yuta Okkotsu had relied and were built upon the idea of Megumi Fushiguro fighting first since he had already Adapted to 'Cleave' and 'Dismantle' in their first battle as well as Ultra-Extreme Temperatures during his battle with The Honoured One.

All of this meant that he should be all but Immune to most of the King of Curses' abilities as a result of these Adaptations, he had even reached about 23% Base form Perma-Adaptation to both Slashes and Ultra-Extreme Temperatures.

However, it seems that Satoru Gojo did not agree with that choice.

"-It's not my fault that your Student decided that I would be the better choice to fight Sukuna, so stop being a salty loser and get back in line!" Megumi ordered as he looked down on his brother with arms crossed, despite being still in his normal form he was still taller by a few inches.

He didn't bother wearing anything on his upper body since he knew it would just get ripped apart when he transformed or started the fight. This also inadvertently revealed his newly formed Tattoo on his abdomen which was the mark of Tranquil Deer's Eyes and Horns reaching up to his chest.

"That's horseshit and you know it! We both know that you didn't pay attention to any of their plans, all you heard was you're gonna go first then zoned out! You already fought him once, it's gotta be my turn now!" Satoru protested vehemently, he wore the same clothes he did in their last fight.

"Don't be a sore loser, suck it up and get in line!"

"I Refuse!"

An amused chuckle cut through the air just as they were about to continue their argument, causing both Megumi Fushiguro and Satoru Gojo to turn and face its source with disgruntled expressions.

"Kyahaha~.."

There stood Ryomen Sukuna with two enormous grins, his arms were crossed as he laughed with amusement at the two sorcerers before him. He was wearing a black Haori that was loosely connected to his back along with pale Hakama pants which allowed quick movement.

"Ladies, ladies.. There's enough of me to go around, just come at me at the same time."

The Lord of Shadows and The Honoured One turned to look at each other for a moment before giant grins filled their faces. A moment later, the ground beneath them shattered to dust as they blurred ahead towards The King of Curses who awaited them with the same mad grin.

Megumi's right fist and Satoru's left met with Sukuna's awaiting limbs in the middle, the 4 armed giant stared at them in amusement as the ground beneath them crumbled and shattered apart from their clash.

"Looks like all that extra beef isn't just for show." Satoru joked as he and Megumi blocked punches from Sukuna's other arms, locking them all in a clash of twisted limbs.

Sukuna was pushed backwards by their combined force, but despite them not giving it their all and only testing the waters – It stood as a testament to the King's True Form's overwhelming power that it even managed to somewhat keep up with both of their attacks.

Megumi released Sukuna's arms before kicking him in the abdomen, causing him to be forced backwards and creating 2 grooves in the ground in his wake. He hummed a moment later as he calculated the difference in pure physical strength felt from that one exchange.

'Hmm.. So while discounting the 2 finger boost, his True Form is about 65% Stronger than when I fought him in Shibuya and that's obviously not everything he's got. I guess that's only to be expected when he's finally got his own body with full control and fully rested.'

At first it was silent as the trio of sorcerers tensed their bodies, an instant later the ground was reduced to mulch as Satoru and Megumi rushed at Sukuna in unison.

Megumi was first to make a move as he went for a punch to Sukuna's side which was swiftly blocked, his opponent tried to retaliate with an elbow but had to block a kick at the last possible second from Satoru.

Grinning, the two sorcerers then disappeared from their place and reappeared at opposing sides. They began to overwhelm The King of Curses with terrifying synchronicity. Synchronicity born of more than a Thousand Bouts shared between the two of them.

The Lord of Shadows reached a hand behind him as dozens of Dark Tendrils shot from his palm and grabbed an Oil Tanker before throwing it at Sukuna. The massive vehicle was sliced apart as soon as it approached, but he was counting on that.

Snap!

"Heh…"

With a chuckle and a snap of his fingers the fire ignited in a blaze of glory, temporarily blinding Sukuna as he was covered head to toe in burning oil. 

The Honoured One appeared right beside the King of Curses, immediately imprinting his foot into Sukuna's chest before Teleporting a moment later to avoid a Dismantle. And defying logic, he reappeared where he just was a moment later with an arm pulled back.

Sukuna couldn't move in time as the fist was layered with a Blue Aura just before the impact, a shockwave resonated a moment later as the earth beneath them cracked. Satoru Gojo wasn't done there as he grinned before the Blue Aura in his fist was swapped with a flash of Red.

A second impact caused The King of Curses to grit his teeth in pain, he pushed through it and landed his own Domain Amplification infused haymaker to his opponent's face which was thrown back.

The impact of Satoru Gojo's Red infused fist could not be ignored for too long however, as Sukuna was then sent flying up into the air where Megumi Fushiguro awaited him.

He weaved around some Dismantles before his feet exploded with Cursed Energy, sending him directly into Sukuna as he kicked the King further into the air. 

Satoru Gojo teleported right above him and spiked him to the side with a brutal elbow to the gut, their target was bounced through the sky and into a building.

"One thing after another with these two…" Sukuna muttered as he recovered within the building, thinking he had a moment of rest but paused when he heard a subtle chanting behind him.

"..Midir's Claw!"

Sukuna turned around just in time to fire Dozens of Dismantles at Megumi who simply grinned through the pain, abusing his Perma-Adaptations as he threw his arm forwards. The Voidborn Dragon's limb followed his gesture as it slammed into Sukuna's crossed arms.

The force of the impact caused him to be sent flying right back out of the building which crumbled in his wake, Satoru Gojo was awaiting him just as he was shot out. Six Azure Singularities formed around him before rushing inwards with the intent to tear him apart.

The King of Curses chuckled before the air beneath him sparked, sending him over the path of the encroaching Singularities. He swiped his arms at a nearby Skyscraper, causing it to be sliced in half and fall over them.

Satoru Gojo and Ryomen Sukuna were separated by Steel Reinforced Concrete as they upped their right and left fists respectively before Black Sparks ran along each of their limbs. They threw their limbs forwards and crashed straight through the wall between them in an explosive outburst of Black Lightning.

""Black Flash!""

The still falling skyscraper around them was obliterated from the shockwave of their impact. Their fists struggled for a moment before The King of Curses won the exchange and sent The Honoured One flying backwards and into a nearby building, but not before he could speak smugly.

"Behind you, Retard."

Sukuna coughed up bile as his back was bent over when The Divine Lord's feet crashed into it before Megumi Fushiguro laughed at him like a maniac. 

"AHAHAHA~!"

The force of his stomp drove The King of Curses face first into the asphalt beneath them, causing it to shatter and crumble apart. The black haired man stepped back and pulled his right leg back with a shout as his limb sparked with black electricity.

"DUMBASS!"

A kick smashed into Sukuna's gut in a Burst of Black Lightning, causing him to bend over the other way before being shot ahead and into a nearby building which shattered and broke in half from his impact.

Megumi Fushiguro placed a hand on his hip and watched the destruction with an amused chuckle as Satoru Gojo teleported beside him, a similarly amused grin covering his face. 

'It's too bad that Sukuna can't really do much against either of us, I got my Perma-Adaptations as well as my 'Divine Lord' form if I need it and Satoru's got his Infinity. If he had his World Cutting Slash, this could have been fun…' 

However, Megumi Fushiguro should know better than to Test the Cruelty of Lady Fate as a single phrase cut through the Carnage, sending shivers down their spines.

"-Twin Meteors."

The Honoured One's right arm along with The Divine Lord's left arm both flew into the air at the same time.

Both sorcerers jumped backwards while activating their Reverse Cursed Technique at the same time, the stakes had more than Quadrupled in an Instant.

The rubble intombing the King of Curses was reduced to mere vapour a moment later, revealing Ryomen Sukuna still standing with his bottom two hands in the Hand sign for his Domain Expansion. He was still somewhat damaged from their rush but they all healed short of a bruise on his Abdomen.

Something important to note was that all three combatants had hit a Black Flash in Quick Succession, meaning all of them would now be fighting at a 120% of their Maximum Potential!

"This is something I learned from you, Fushiguro Megumi!" Sukuna declared with obvious smugness before beginning to monologue. 

"Thanks to you showing me how Jujutsu can target Space itself during your battle with Kenjaku, you then sealed the deal by showing me that last slash during your battle with Satoru Gojo." He chuckled while beginning to walk towards the two of them as their arms were restored fully.

"It took me 5 days to replicate it, but my Talent allowed me to copy it eventually – The World Cutting Slash. My Target was not just you two fools, but Space, The Entire World-" 

His monologuing was cut off by Megumi and Satoru shouting over him at the same time.

""WE FUCKING KNOW!""

"Eh?"

He watched on in amusement as Satoru Gojo turned to Megumi with a deadpan expression, prompting Megumi Fushiguro to look away with a drop of sweat falling down his face. No words were said but both of them knew what the other thought instantly.

'How was I supposed to know he could copy me by seeing it once?! Fuckin Plot Armour… Sukuna could actually be a threat now since he can bypass Infinity and my Adaptations. I can tell from my Wheel that it'll take two full Adaptation spins to Analyse World Slash because of how extreme the effect of the attack is, fuck sake I could have had Yuji help me Adapt to it ahead of time. However…' 

The Lord of Shadows hummed slightly before a giant grin covered his face, if things were truly becoming somewhat fun again then it would be worth it to atleast try and make it as fun as possible.

"Yo, you two – I know of a way to make this all way more fun, if you'll hear me out!" He called out, stealing the attention of the other two combatants, he spoke again a moment later with a hand raised.

"Fighting a 2 v 1 is good and all, but why don't we just make it a Free For All? A 1 v 1 v 1."

The Honoured One and The King of Curses both looked at him with speechless, shocked expressions. If one had keen ears, they would hear the sound of subtle enraged screaming from far away.

""Pfffft.. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!""

Both Satoru Gojo and Ryomen Sukuna burst out with hysterical laughter at the sheer ridiculousness of the question before answering him at the same time.

""LET'S DO IT!""

All three sorcerers grinned before jumping backwards into the air, landing atop 3 opposing buildings. Satoru Gojo was the first to speak after a moment of silence.

"Both of you should get ready to lose! I'm the Strongest after all!" He proclaimed with arrogance, prompting Megumi to laugh and cut him off.

"Former Strongest!" 

"Shut up asshole! That was muscle memory!"

"...How the Hell have you two Clowns not been killed by now?" Sukuna questioned incredulously, he truly didn't understand how they made it this far without being back stabbed.

In either case, it is now that the True Battle will begin…

This was going to be a Battle that could never be forgotten, a Battle being Broadcast along every corner of Globe.

A Battle that shall mark the Beginning of a New Age!

The Strongest Sorcerer of History Vs The Strongest Sorcerer of The Modern Era Vs The Strongest Sorcerer of The Future.

Megumi Fushiguro smirked at his two opponents before sinking into his own shadow, causing Sukuna and Gojo to look at each other in confusion. They shrugged and rushed at each other, the building beneath them being obliterated in their wake.

They met in the middle as The Honoured One went for a Blue infused punch to the gut which was blocked, Sukuna tried to elbow him in return but was dodged at the last possible moment.

Gojo's fist rushed forwards towards the King's face who jumped back to dodge it but paused mid air as he saw the grin on his opponent's face. Satoru's punch was revealed to be a feint as he gripped his fist in the air and pulled his hand back towards himself.

Sukuna found himself involuntarily being pulled to his opponent, he grinned at that before creating his Domain Expansion's hand sign mid air. 

"My World Slash does not require Chants!"

The Gojo Clan's Six Eyes turned into pinpricks as Satoru Gojo dropped to the ground, a second later Space just above him was sliced apart as some of his white hair was sliced. 

"I only did it out of courtesy!"

A Red aura emerged from his hand as he was then sent flying from his place just as another cut in space was formed where he just was. He flew over Sukuna's still flying body before a Blue singularity formed in his hand and fired.

"You'll regret not killing me with it when you had the chance!" 

Sukuna grit his teeth while activating Domain Amplification, grasping the Blue Singularity within his 4 hands before crushing it into nothingness. He then moved his arms upwards to block an axe kick from Satoru Gojo, the force of their clash shattering the ground beneath his feat.

The Honoured One then teleported behind The King of Curses while pointing his left hand at his back, a Crimson Singularity forming within it as he chanted.

"Cursed Technique Reversal: R-"

"Dragon Communion:..."

His chanting was cut off when he heard chanting behind him before 2 fists crashed into the side of his head, sending him flying to the side as Megumi Fushiguro stepped forwards in his 'Divine Lord' form. He pointed a finger at Sukuna before his second mouth completed the chant.

"Midir's Wrath."

The King of Curses hastily formed his Domain's Hand sign just as The Darkeater's Plasma Breathe shot at him with intent to reduce him to ash, a Spacial Sever occurred a moment later the Pillar of Heavenly Light was cut in half.

2 Pillars of Plasma shot on both of Sukuna's sides, they obliterated everything behind him within 1.5 Kilometres to Ash and Molten Slag.

Ryomen Sukuna and Megumi Fushiguro looked at each other for a moment in silence as the dust settled before they tensed their legs. A moment later, the earth beneath them was reduced to rubble as they met in the middle.

"Come here you Fraud!"

"Who are you calling a Fraud, you Copycat?!"

Shockwaves reverberated from their exchange as they began to battle with purely hand to hand combat, it was obvious that Sukuna held an enormous Advantage when it came to close quarter's combat. His decades of experience over Megumi in 4 armed combat was evident.

Sukuna parried one of Megumi's fists before socking him across the face with a brutal haymaker, he grabbed him with another arm before pulling him to the side where he was met with a knee followed by yet another punch to the face.

The King of Curses outclassed his opponent in 4 Armed combat skill something fierce, However…

CLINK

The Divine Lord does not Care.

A grin covered Megumi Fushguro's face as two arm clamped around Sukuna's extended arm before he pulled his body upwards, using the momentum he then swung his foot into his opponent's chin causing him to bite the tip of his tongue off by accident.

Cursed Energy sparked from his foot a moment later as it blinded Sukuna's 4 eyes, allowing him to duck over the King's fevered punch and elbow him in the gut. A shockwave shattered all nearby glass as Sukuna coughed up some blood.

Gritting through the pain, The King of Curses spiked down with both sets of limbs, each of them layered with Domain Amplification. The Lord of Shadows managed to block them with his own arms at the last possible second as they then got into a Clash of Brute Strength.

The ground beneath the Two Titans crumbled and fragmented, the city of Shinjuku was shaken to its foundations as it was cracked and quaked. Megumi also noted that when he was in direct contact with Domain Amplification, his Adaptations became Dormant in the place that's touched.

Satoru Gojo floated above the two of them with eyes shadowed, he had long since recovered from Megumi's surprise attack. But a thought sparked through his mind that he had been working through, the battle between him and Sukuna had opened his eyes.

"Megumi and Sukuna.. They're both growing Stronger, unlocking new facets of their Technique. Why is it that I can't do the Same?" He muttered under his breath, the Galactic glow of his Six Eyes was the only thing that could be seen from his face.

"No, I didn't do the Same... It has always been me, hasn't it? Megumi also had a guide to power from his Clan, but he never followed it. He Innovated, he Grew, he Achieved the Impossible again and again. He was Never Satisfied."

Satoru Gojo watched as Megumi broke out of their clash and socked Sukuna across the face, a second arm reaching forwards a moment later and shooting a Blast of Pure Cursed Energy and Flames into Sukuna's face – Blinding him.

"…So why was I so Stagnant? Why did I never step outside the path set for me by The Gojo Clan? All this time.. I've just been a Weak Coward that relied on the Knowledge of his Predecessors!"

And when The Honoured One came to terms with that Realisation.. He had Completely and Utterly Rejected it.

He clenched his right fist along with that Rejection, it was time to step out of the Gilded Lines set for him throughout Generations of his Ancestors.

So he did something that only Satoru Gojo had ever achieved for the first time in the Millennia of the Gojo Clan's History.

"Megumi and Sukuna are both Surpassing their Limits over and over while I stay the Same.. The One being left Behind here… Is Me."

A Green Aura formed in his right hand as space folded around him, he reappeared right before The Divine Lord with an arm pulled back before chanting.

"Improvised Cursed Technique Extension:..."

"Oh.. CRAP BASKEE-!" 

Megumi Fushiguro's exclamation was cut off by an Earth Shattering Haymaker landing directly into the side of his head, Green Cracks formed from the impact immediately as they spread through the atmosphere as if Shattering Space itself.

"LIME GREEN!"

CRACK!

[Image (In Discord)]

Blood spurted in the air as space continued to break apart and shatter, causing immense internal damage to the Lord of Shadows as well as sending Quakes and Vibrations throughout the air which reduced nearby buildings to rubble.

"RAAAGH!"

The Honoured One shouted as he turned mid air and completed his swing, Megumi Fushiguro was sent flying away from the force of the very fabric of Space Breaking Apart and Quaking under Satoru Gojo's Will.

SHATTER!

Ryomen Sukuna watched as his opponent was thrown halfway across the City, he immediately went to form his Domain's Hand sign in order to channel his World Slash but was stopped by Satoru Gojo's fist glowing with that same Green Aura and slamming towards him before stopping against the air itself.

"Green!"

CRACK! SHATTER!

Space shattered apart instantly, sending Shockwaves at The King of Curses which caused him to be blown away and into a nearby building which fractured on impact.

Satoru Gojo looked down with laboured breath at his hand as a Green bubble formed over it, it was a New Facet of his Limitless technique – An Ability all his own. 

'Just 'Green' should be better than 'Lime Green'...'

His breathing calmed down into a steady pace as The Honoured One grinned, he turned to where Sukuna landed. His Six Eyes burned with True Excitement and Giddiness as for the first time in too Long, Satoru Gojo felt a Rush of Inspiration.

"I need to be Free. Just like Megumi said.. The Only Thing that Matters… Is My Own Interpretation!"

The ground beneath him was painted a Red Hue as it exploded outwards and sent Satoru Gojo flying towards where Ryomen Sukuna landed, he had formed a Red right beneath himself to grant himself enhanced mobility.

The Honoured One pulled back an arm as it was covered with a Green bubble a moment later, he threw his arm forwards as soon as he reached the collapsed building where The King of Curses was – The World around the Two of them Was Instantly Fractured.

CRACK! SHATTER!

Megumi Fushiguro pulled himself up to his feet, coughing blood into his hand as he did so – He felt blood leaking from his eyes and nose, that Point Blank Green had done significant damage. He had even been knocked straight out of his Mahoraga Incarnation.

"Satoru just pulls some new move outta his ass and decides to use it on me instead of Sukuna?! That fucking piece of shit, if I hadn't reinforced my Brain at the last possible second, that could have Killed me! I'll fuckin' show him…" The Lord of Shadows growled under his breath while grasping his own face, feeling blood flowing between his fingers.

He took some steps forwards while Analysing his Adaptation rate, finding that he was about 60% of the way to a Spin from his Wheel – It should only take one more direct hit before the first Adaptation to 'Green' Occurs.

The earth beneath him cracked as he jumped with his pure base strength alone, he was sent up 5 stories and latched onto a nearby skyscraper and began to climb its side. With every second that passed he got faster and faster as he fully restored himself with his Reverse Cursed Technique.

Eventually, he shot up the whole skyscraper and landed atop its very top. Megumi Fushiguro walked towards its edge and took in the sights of the demolished city before him, a once lively place where the average person would live was reduced to beaten and battered wasteland from their battle.

He saw a Green flash spark throughout the atmosphere followed by a Shockwave which caused the city to crack and fracture even further. Ryomen Sukuna shot out of a cloud of dust, injuries covering his whole body yet he remained with a manic grin while chanting.

"Scale of The Dragon! Recoil! Twin Meteors!"

Satoru Gojo shot out of the same cloud of dust, he shot his arm down as a blast of Cursed Energy shot from it. The blast sent him to the side just in time to avoid the World Slash which sliced the building behind him in half right down the middle.

He couldn't move out of the way in time for the second World Slash which cut off his left hand, The Honoured One grinned despite his pain and aimed his other hand at The King of Curses before shouting.

"YOU CAN'T USE THOSE TOO MANY TIMES IN A ROW, CAN YOU?! REVERSAL RED!"

A Crimson Singularity formed in his palm and shot towards his opponent, Sukuna's 4 eyes widened at his limitation being found – Despite the Overwhelming Lethality of his World Slash, it still drained him too heavily for him to be able to use it too many times in quick succession.

His eyes locked onto a nearby building, a hand swung at it frantically as a Flaming Dismantle sliced it in twain at an angle. The Building then exploded a moment later along the cut created by Sukuna and fell atop the Reversal Red, blocking the attack for him just in time by crushing it.

The Honoured One grinned at this and raised a hand which was covered with a Green and went to smash it against the atmosphere to clear the way but stopped when he involuntarily coughed up Blood, it seems his body was still very unused to the Backlash from Shattering the fabric of Space right next to his body.

A laugh cut through the atmosphere as soon as the building finished crumbling and revealed Sukuna standing in wait behind it with arms crossed.

"Kyahaha~! Do you need a breather, Satoru Gojo?! I can give you a break if you wish?" He mocked smugly.

"Who needs a break? Weren't you the one who was running away from me like a bitch just a second ago?!" Satoru shot right back while wiping his mouth of blood, regenerating his lost hand in the process.

"You ready to prove that Bravado, you white haired Brat?" Sukuna questioned with a grin as his bottom set of arms went to make his Domain's hand sign.

"Don't threaten me with a good time, you fucking Fossil!" Gojo replied with a similar manic grin, making his own Domain's hand sign as he did.

""Domain Expansion:...""

The Honoured One and The King of Curses chanted at the same and just as they were about to cast their Domain Expansions, a spike in Cursed Energy and a shout cut through their attentions – Causing their heads to swerve to the side.

"DOMAIN EXPANSION: CHIMERA SHADOW GARDEN!"

There stood The Lord of Shadows atop a building about 180 metres away with a Colossal Tree-like Spinal column shooting up from the ground behind him. The earth just beneath them was flooded with Shadows, they were both within Range of his Domain.

"I could have just done this from the beginning, instead I thought I'd have some fun, do a Free-For-All – BUT FUCK YOU! SUCK MY DIVINE DICK!"

The two of them watched on in horror as Megumi Fushiguro grasped the air before pulling his arm up, causing a chain reaction through the reaches of his Domain as countless areas within it began bubbling up and from them arose Golden 8 Handled Dharma Wheels.

The Divine Lord had made a Binding Vow to never use his Domain's Sure-Hit effect for the following Month and in exchange, the Base Ability of Multiplying his Shikigami was enhanced in both Efficiency and Potency.

"It's about time I Introduce you Two Bastards to a funny little concept of mine – It's Called 'Jump Jutsu Kaisen™'!"

Approximately 600 copies of the Divine General emerged from their Lord's nigh endless Abyss and started marching towards the duo of Satoru Gojo and Ryomen Sukuna with full intent to rip them both to shreds.

"Now then my.. Mahoragas? Mahoragi? Well Whatever! GO FUCK THEIR SHIT UP!" Megumi ordered while waving towards his opponents dismissively. 

The Honoured One and The King of Curses stared at the oncoming Hoard of Divine Generals, each of them already Adapted to their Cursed Techniques short their newly gained 'Green' and 'World Cutting Slash' before turning to look at each other.

"Well Sukuna.. You take the 300 on the Right, I'll Take the 300 on the Left." 

"Screw You, I'll take 301!" 

"That's the Spirit!'"

"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGHHHHHH!!!"

The Divine Lord sat down atop the edge of the building with a leg folded over the other and resting his head upon his right hand, he watched on in sadistic amusement as both of his opponents were rushed by his Hoard of Shikigami. A demonic grin covered his face when a devious idea formed in his brain a moment later.

Satoru Gojo moved first, rushing ahead at the oncoming hoard with a hand shining in a Green hue. He was followed by Ryomen Sukuna who's bottom set of hands held his Domain's hand sign.

Neither of them could afford to use their Domains as one's would get shattered from outside and the other's has already been Adapted to, so they were forced to do something neither expected to ever have to do in their lives.

The Honoured One and The King of Curses were forced to work together and fight side by side.

An earth shattering quake fractured the battlefield, causing the hoard to stumble over each other and leaving them opening them up for an attack from Sukuna who chanted while combating a copy of Mahoraga.

"Scale of The Dragon. Recoil. Twin Meteors."

With a swing of his arms, 6 copies of The Divine General were reduced to cubes of flesh faster than they could Adapt or Regenerate. He was left open from his back as a Blade of Extermination shot towards him, it was stopped at the last possible second by a flash of Purple.

Satoru Gojo gritted his teeth before clenching the hand which shot the 'Hollow Purple' and channelling his 'Green' into it. He disappeared from his place and appeared just behind the recovering Mahoraga and swung at it, causing everything around him to Fracture.

CRACK! SHATTER!

He was approached from behind by yet another copy but he didn't flinch as it was rendered to a vapour a millisecond later by Ryomen Sukuna.

"...G-Gojo-sensei and Sukuna a-are.. Working together?!" Yuta exclaimed, nothing made any sense to him anymore.

Maki stood by his side with arms crossed and mouth agape, utterly speechless at the incomprehensible sight before her. She wasn't alone as all the other Jujutsu Sorcerers watching from within Rika's viewing platform were just as flabbergasted.

"Every second that passes, I'm beginning to think more and more that existence is just a joke…" Nobara commented, seeming utterly done with her life at this point.

"You're telling me… Since when did Megumi become The Final Boss here?!" Yuji cried out in shock, watching as his teacher and the once inner demon saved each other's lives time after time, working in nearly perfect synchronicity. 

"And why the hell is he looking like he's winning?!" Hakari questioned incredulously, sure he had lost to him once before but this was just ridiculous. 

'I called that Monster an Edgelord Furry?! That must've been why I didn't hit a Jackpot, I used up all my Luck to not get Killed instantly!' He thought a moment later, feeling a relieved sweat fall down his head like a waterfall.

"Fufufu~! As expected of the Young Master…" Rin chuckled smugly, covering her mouth haughtily as she drew deadpan stares from everyone present, not that she cared in the slightest. She held in her hands a large flag with Megumi's face along with '#1' next to it.

"I for one never had any doubts!" Shoko snickered, she had in her hands a glass of wine as she leaned back on a couch and watched the carnage wrought by her little brother.

"It's certainly a wonderful sight to watch~!" Utahime giggled by her side and held a similar glass of wine which they clinked together before drinking.

"At the very least, you guys aren't the only ones freaking out – You should see the reactions of the rest of the Jujutsu society, the Zen'in clan is basically on fire." Mechamaru called out with a small chuckle, he could listen in and monitor countless corners of the globe and the reactions were funny to say the least.

"Not to mention the Gojo clan, they're-"

"YO GUYS, LOOK AT THAT! WHAT IS MEGUMI DOING?!"

Kokichi's explanation was cut off by Yuji standing up from his seat and pointing towards the screen, they all paused and turned to the screen. Silence overtook the room as they to decipher what his plan was with this Merged Beast.

"Sukuna.. Do you feel that?" Satoru Gojo questioned while gut punching a Mahoraga, Space Fractured a moment later and obliterated the copy along with pushing away its comrades before he turned to face his newly gained partner.

"Yes, I do." Sukuna replied as his second mouth finished chanting, a World Slash reduced about 5 Divine Generals to nothing.

The two of them turned to face where Megumi Fushiguro stood and took in the sight of his Demonic Grin as an Orb of Crimson Flaming Cursed Energy touched him, his body fired up with Cursed Energy a moment later.

What The Lord of Shadows had done was Merge the Reversals of both Tranquil Deer and Funeral Tiger, the resulting Merger had the Ability to Generate Cursed Energy and then Donate it to the closest entity upon Death.

He had included a Binding Vow in its creation which increased the yield of Cursed Energy produced dramatically and in exchange it would sacrifice its own life in the process – This only served to feed into the Reversed Ability of Funeral Tiger which grants Megumi all the Cursed Energy Generated due to his proximity at time of Death.

Thanks to this ingenious Merger, with every Minute that passes – The Divine Lord regains Approximately 0.5 Sukuna Fingers worth of Cursed Energy from each Merged Beast created.

"Megumi Fushiguro… Is there Anything your 'Ten Shadows' can not do?! HOW HIGH DOES YOUR CEILING GO?!" The King of Curses shouted incredulously as he looked into The Divine Lord's grinning face which transitioned into a maniacal laughter that echoed throughout the battlefield. 

"Ehehehehe-HahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~!!"

The Endless Abyss beneath their feet bubbled over once again as even more Divine Generals emerged, adding onto the once thinning hoard. Ryomen Sukuna looked upon the nigh endless army before deciding that continuing to battle them was an Exercise in Futility, he turned to Satoru Gojo and shouted an order.

"SATORU GOJO, I NEED YOU TO THROW ME!"

"Huh? OH HELL YEAH!"

With an exhilarated grin, The Honoured One pointed a hand towards The King of Curses and formed a Blue Singularity in his hands which shot forwards and grabbed his target before throwing him into the air.

The Lord of Shadows watched all of this with an amused smirk as he stood up from his place and raised his clenched fists together at an angle before whispering under his breath.

"Too Late. Incarnation: Divine General Mahoraga."

Megumi Fushiguro was covered by a pillar of purplish cursed energy as his body began to morph, the shadows behind him bubbled over and released Darkeater Midir who stood above his Master at attention.

"Green!" Satoru Gojo chanted as he fired off a Low Output Green right behind Ryomen Sukuna, space shattered and sent the King of Curses flying towards where their opponent stood.

"If I'm the Final Boss here, then it's only normal for me to have a Second Phase, no?" Megumi questioned, Midir reached forwards and swallowed him whole – Only allowing a Subtle Chant to break through his Maw.

"Darkeater's Embrace!"

The Draconic Merged Beast dissolved into Liquid Shadows and formed a Hurricane around his Master, the shadows compressed further and further as they began forming a sleeker Humanoid Figure. An Obsidian Draconic armour with Violet highlights compressed around The Lord of Shadows, it reached up to his neck and stopped right at his ears.

Ryomen Sukuna finally reached his target but it was too late as all 4 of his hands were caught by 4 other arms, each of them covered in a Jagged Armour that dug into his skin.

Since Megumi Fushiguro couldn't merge with his Shikigami following his previous Binding Vow, he had simply opted to force his Greatest Merger to be layered over himself to act as a second Skin. It guarded him from most damage and granted him an absurdly immense boost to his physical strength – A Living Draconic Armour.

"Why not wish me a Happy Birthday.. Sukuna?"

The King of Curses looked into the Mad grin upon The Divine Lord's face with horror, the next words caused him to panic and struggle to escape.

"And by the by? My second mouth isn't for show…"

The armour upon Megumi's abdomen opened up a crevice which showed a draconic maw which sparked with Crimson Flames, it began to charge up a Blast of Plasma. Sukuna was pulled away at the last possible second by Satoru who thrust a hand before the two of them and activated his Advanced Infinity.

The Pillar of Heavenly Light was dispersed around the two sorcerers and Incinerated everything behind them, when it faded away it showed Sukuna and Gojo standing with minimal injuries.

"Still breathing?" Satoru questioned with laboured breath, keeping an eye on Megumi who simply stood a few metres away and waited for them.

"I'm fine, I didn't need your help!" Sukuna growled, he grimaced while staring at a burned stump where his top right arm used to be – He couldn't even heal it anymore due to the stress caused to his brain throughout the apocalyptic battle.

"You two about done getting your Shit together over there? Cause I'm starting to get Bored!" Megumi called out to them while crossing both pairs of arms.

"...What did you just say you hapless little shit?!" Sukuna shouted, all sense of calm was immediately thrown out of the window as The Lord of Shadows simply grinned devilishly and repeated.

"I said I'm Bored. You're Boring Me."

"...New plan, what do you say we just kill him Sukuna?" Satoru questioned, feeling a vein bulge on his forehead.

"Agreed..." 

The Final bout of The Shinjuku Showdown between The Lord of Shadows Vs The Honoured One and The King of Curses shall now begin!

The ground was reduced to rubble and dust as the Strongest Sorcerers of the Past rushed against the Strongest Sorcerer of The Future. 

Megumi swerved around to dodge a haymaker from Sukuna, before responding with a punch of his own which was blocked. He jumped back a moment later as Satoru crashed where he just was with a Green, it shattered the ground beneath them and sent pillars of earth into the battlefield.

Grabbing one of the pillars, he threw it ahead at Satoru before the ground beneath him sparked with cursed energy and sent him flying right after it. The pillar was sliced apart mid air by a Dismantle before he heard a chant break through the air.

"-Recoil. Twin Meteors!"

A Spacial Sever sliced into his side, only narrowly avoiding cutting him clean in half. And yet despite taking immense damage, the Divine Lord grinned.

CLINK

Only one more Adaptation remained for Ryomen Sukuna's 'World Cutting Slash'.

Megumi turned his face mid air and shot a hand to the opposing side as his body reconnected together, firing a combined blast of Cursed Energy and Flames which sent him flying towards The King of Curses.

A devastating haymaker smashed into Sukuna's face, a shockwave reverberated from the impact which grinded the earth beneath them further down. Two hands shot forwards and grabbed onto his opponent's shoulder before pulling him towards him as his leg sparked with Black Lightning.

"Black Flash!"

The Divine Lord's knee crashed into The King's face in an explosion of Black Sparks, sending cracks in his face Plate. Sukuna grit his teeth through the pain and shot his arms forwards, grappling his opponent and crashing him into the ground before beginning to pummel him into the dirt.

Megumi moved his head to the side, narrowly avoiding a punch which shattered the earth before one of his arms shot at Sukuna's neck. He pushed him upwards before a growl escaped his throat, he shot forwards and bit into an arm.

A kick crashed into the back of his head and sent him flying away from Sukuna, he spun in the air and looked at what sent him flying with a demonic bloodstained grin, finding it to be Satoru.

He stopped himself and stood stall while staring at his opponents, he absentmindedly chewed at a piece of flesh in his mouth and swallowed. 

"Hmm~.. I understand why you like eating Humans so much, Sukuna. I can definitely see the Appeal~!" Megumi called out before licking his lips clean of blood and breaking into maniacal laughter.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHA~!"

"...Did this jackass just Eat you mid battle?!" Satoru commented incredulously, turning to his partner and watching a chunk of flesh be regenerated on Sukuna's arm.

"What does it look like?! This fucking unclean Freak, atleast I cook my food first!" 

The King of Curses growled as he felt his arm go numb, realising that it must have been the Paralytic Venom he told him about during their last battle – This time injected directly from The Divine Lord's Maw.

It was then that Satoru Gojo came to an Utterly Terrifying Realisation.

'Dear God… Am.. Am I the Sanest One out of the Three of us?! What the fuck has my Life come to?!'

"Who're you calling a Freak, you damn Fraud?!" Megumi shouted with a manic grin before the earth beneath him shattered apart in his wake as he shot towards the two of them.

"For the last time.. STOP CALLING ME FUCKING FRAUD, YOU BRAT!"

"NEVER!"

His fist crashed against Sukuna's awaiting arms, sending a shockwave to shatter the ground beneath them as he swerved to the side to avoid Satoru's punch. One of his arms snuck past The Honoured One's extended arm and grabbed onto his neck before he could dodge.

The Honoured One was pulled in front of him, causing him to block Sukuna's kick with his own body. The Divine Lord grinned and punched his meat shield in the back, sending him flying forwards for a moment before he shot a Red at the ground.

Satoru dodged upwards just in time to avoid a World Slash that would have cleaved him in half, Megumi simply dodged the majority of the slash but allowed one of his hands to be cut off. An amused grin covered his face as his Wheel began to analyse the World Slash even further while restoring his hand.

"Thank you sir, may I have another?" Megumi asked mockingly as his hand was restored fully, drawing an annoyed scoff from Sukuna.

"Careful, next time I might not be so kind as to shoot it at your Abdomen. My next attempt will be on your head!" The King of Curses proclaimed, beginning to march forwards with The Honoured One having recovered beside him.

"Heh.. Your biggest mistake is assuming I'll be giving you another chance, you overgrown Circus Reject!" The Divine Lord shouted as he rushed ahead at his opponents the moment his hand was fully regenerated.

He met with Satoru Gojo this time, he parried a kick before grabbing the leg and smashing it towards the ground. The Lord of Shadows then swerved the side at the last second to avoid a World Slash before stomping down at The Honoured One with a sparking foot.

"Black Flash!"

An explosion of Black Sparks reverberated in the air as Satoru Gojo vomited blood while being driven into the ground. Dozens of Abyssal Tendrils latched around his body a moment later and picked him up just in time to be kicked at Ryomen Sukuna by their master's awaiting foot.

"Don't get it mistaken, you sorry pieces of shit!"

The earth beneath Megumi Fushiguro shattered as he shot towards The King of Curses following his shout. Sukuna grabbed onto his partner as he was kicked into him before throwing him to the side, his 2 remaining arms shooting forwards to block The Divine Lord's rush.

"The Only Reason either of you were considered 'The Strongest' at any point in time…"

His arms were pulled apart to reveal Megumi's Goldish Crimson eyes staring into his Soul, he had a 3rd arm pulled back with Blackish Crimson Sparks running down its frame as he completed his Declaration.

"WAS SIMPLY BECAUSE I WASN'T BORN YET!"

An earth shattering shockwave heralded by an explosion of Blackish Crimson Lightning rattled Ryomen Sukuna's mind as he was driven into the ground. 

"BLACK FLASH!"

A tornado of Black Sparks shot up into the heavens as if signalling the end of the battle as the earth fractured with his impact sending cracks throughout the ground, breaking the city into fragments Blood leaked from every orifice on his head as Sukuna began to feel nauseous from how hard his mind was shaken.

"Nine Ropes! Polarised Light!"

Hearing that chant, he knew Satoru Gojo's Hollow Purple was about to obliterate everything in his direction. But he couldn't choose to move as Abyssal Tendrils crawled over his body and lifted him up into Megumi's awaiting hand who then held him face first in the direction of The Honoured One's Ultimate Attack.

"You're not going anywhere I'm afraid." The Lord of Shadows stated, leaving no chance for a rebuttal.

"W-What a-are you-?!" The King of Curses slurred, his mind still hazy from the Brain Damage caused by the Black Flash.

"Crow and Declaration! The Gap Between and Without!"

"I'll Survive this – You Won't." 

"IMAGINARY TECHNIQUE: MAXIMUM OUTPUT UNLIMITED HOLLOW PURPLE!"

…

Ryomen Sukuna stood in the middle of a destroyed and burning village, around him were the broken and mutilated bodies of Humans. The smoke reached up to the sky and blotted out the Sun, leaving only Dark Clouds above him.

He wore the same clothing he came into the battle with, a Black Haori and loose pants. Sukuna looked around the village with disdain, each corpse lacked a face and only held a Blurry face with evident Agony and Disgust. 

"So Sukuna… Are you Satisfied?"

Sukuna turned around to face the owner of the Voice and found it to be Megumi Fushiguro, his Golden Dharma Wheel floated above his head gently as he crouched next to a corpse on the ground observed it.

"Pfft.. Figures you'd pull me into The Cursed Realm. Not sure how to feel about being on this side of the equation for once." Sukuna said with an amused laugh, it was Truly a novel experience – Defeat.

"But.. I suppose this isn't too bad of a Death to Die by the hands of you two Sorcerers. It was a Great Deal of Fun to battle you both, it's a Shame that it ended this early. Such is life."

Ryomen Sukuna truly felt no anger or humiliation at his loss, the Strong ruled the world after all – He was overpowered, then his life didn't matter and he deserved to Die.

He walked towards Megumi Fushiguro with a grin, watching as the Black haired sorcerer stood up and looked at him impassively. Stopping just before him, he spoke again one last time.

"It was fun, Megumi Fushiguro."

With that, Ryomen Sukuna moved to walk past the sorcerer, Satisfied with his Death and ready to fade away. 

However…

"Oh-ho-ho~ No.."

Sukuna stopped in his place as he felt his Haori be grasped from the back, stopping him from being able to walk away.

"I say when we're Done." 

"...What are you doing?" Sukuna turned to face Megumi and looked into his Assured grin with complete and utter confusion.

"I am going to use my 'Talk No Jutsu™' Technique that I haven't Used Since the Heian Era."

"...The What?" 

"Never mind that…"

Megumi released him and crossed his arms, leaning against the wall of a burned down house and stared into the cloudy sky before speaking up a moment later.

"I asked if you were Satisfied, Sukuna. Wasn't that the most fun fight you've had in your life?"

"...I suppose so, but what the hell does that matter for anything?" Sukuna replied after a few seconds of silence, The Lord of Shadows was quiet for a moment before speaking again while a grin covered his face.

"...Y'know, a Friend once Told Me this Quote. 'If you want to Become Someone New, Go North. And if You Want to Return to your Old Self, Go South.' Who do you wanna be, Sukuna?"

Ryomen Sukuna found himself to be speechless again for one too many times, he couldn't even tell for sure if the other man meant what he said. But looking at the Assured Grin on Megumi Fushiguro's face, he could tell that he was not kidding.

"Of all the things that I've heard throughout my entire existence, this is perhaps the most ridiculous... You wish to risk the lives of thousands because you want to fight me again? Just How Greedy Can One Man Be?"

"Pfffft.. BWAHAHA~!" Megumi Fushiguro burst out with hysterical laughter, he could not deny what Sukuna said – This was perhaps the most Selfish and Reckless thing he had ever done.

"Yes. I can Save your life, but only if you Agree to a Binding Vow where you can not willingly hurt others unprovoked or without reason – If you do that, I'll pardon you and Uraume. I'll keep everyone off your back, all you have to do is agree." He revealed, reaching a hand forwards and offering it to the other man.

This was an Act of Both a God and a Human. 

It Was Trust.

A Conclusion made from his Thirst for fun battles and a wish to grant a rival a second chance, uncaring of the Consequences.

"It'll get Boring pretty quickly if it's just me and Satoru, I'd kick his ass too Hard."

An Act of Compassion and Greed.

"So we can end this right now. It's not too late, Sukuna."

As Ryomen Sukuna looked into Megumi Fushiguro's eyes, he didn't see Pity – He could tell this wasn't an act meant to humiliate him, it was a genuine offer.

It was an Offer from an Equal Sorcerer who had a simple and clear goal with no other motives.

And then, the Impossible Happened –

Ryomen Sukuna took Megumi Fushiguro's hand, the Bloodstained Village around him shook as it was overtaken by lush greenery. A disbelieving chuckle escaped the Divine Lord's mouth as he asked The King of Curses an Honest Question.

"...You think 'God of Sorcerery' is too Tacky of a Title?"

"It sounds Goofy and Retarded as hell."

"Eh, you're a thousand year old Geezer, what do you know of Goofiness?"

"Enough to know that Title is Goofy."

– The King of Curses Chose to Go North.

…

Following Satoru Gojo's Maximum Hollow Purple, a cloud of Ash and Dust covered the entire area. It had reduced a good chunk of the City to nothingness. 

And yet… 

CLINK

The cloud of dust was dispersed by a gust of air, revealing the Divine Lord standing with a hand extended to where the Hollow Purple came from. He seemed to not be injured in the slightest, he had a sly smirk on his face as The King of Curses sighed beside him.

Adaptation to Satoru Gojo's Imaginary Technique 'Hollow Purple' has been Completed.

The Entire World had witnessed The Battle of The Strongest, The Shinjuku Showdown Has Been Completed.

And they all Bore Witness to the Glory of the One Who is Free, to the One Who Stood Above it All And His Overwhelming Intensity!

The Conclusion was Evident to all; The Lord of Shadows - Megumi Fushiguro - Stands as The Victor.

He Had Truly Become The Strongest Sorcerer in History.

"Huh..? …What's happening now?" Satoru questioned, seeming completely and utterly confused. If one had keen ears, they would hear completely and utterly enraged Screams.

"Don't worry about it Satoru, you don't need to continue fighting. But TL;DR? I made him agree to a Binding Vow where he can't hurt anyone unprovoked so we can continue having fun fights with him."

Satoru Gojo seemed even more confused at that and turned to Ryomen Sukuna who was looking away with arms crossed, he spoke up with a question after a few moments of silence.

"...Y-You Pulled a 'Goku and Vegeta'?! …For Real?!"

Sukuna sighed deeply before replying.

"...For Real Real."

"Well… That's... Anti-Climactic as Fu-!"
