Since the Gojo Family gave birth to two Six Eyes Sorcerers, their status in the Jujutsu World has risen steadily, with the Zen'in Family and Kamo Family only barely able to contend with them by joining forces.
The benefits brought by this change were not merely about prestige; whether it was resources from the Jujutsu World or ordinary society, the Gojo Family reaped all the rewards.
In the original work, a single shirt worn by Satoru Gojo was worth 250,000 yen, and the commission fees he paid for investigating cases started in the tens of millions. To separate Megumi Fushiguro, the inheritor of the Ten Shadows Cursed Technique, from the Zen'in Family, he even offered more than a billion yen, essentially buying Megumi Fushiguro outright.
And with Chinatsu's arrival as another Six Eyes Sorcerer of the same generation, the Gojo Family became even wealthier.
When Chinatsu bid a billion, the Grand Elder beside her didn't even raise an eyebrow. It was clear that a billion was not a significant amount to them, at least not enough to cause any real strain.
The entire auction house fell into a dead silence. Zen'in Naobito frankly clicked his tongue. It wouldn't be a problem for them to produce a billion, but they were simply reluctant to part with it.
The most uncomfortable person present was Toji. He had already opened his mouth to bid when suddenly a billion appeared, like a basin of icy cold water directly extinguishing his burning fighting spirit.
Toji: So what if you're rich?!
Chinatsu: Sorry, it's pretty amazing~
Their gazes briefly met. Although they didn't actually make eye contact, it was as if an intense conversation had already taken place.
After a short exchange of glances, Toji opened his mouth and let out a long sigh.
There was no point in playing. The other party had thrown out a billion. If he was simply short on money, it would be one thing, but the most frustrating part was that the other party looked like she hadn't even tried her hardest yet.
Damn capitalism!
Toji grumbled to himself, then rose from his seat, hands in his pockets, and walked out of the auction house with a displeased expression.
As for the playful cloud, Chinatsu easily acquired it. With her money power... After the auction, Chinatsu received the three-section staff from the backstage staff. To be honest, she had seen many people use nunchaku, but her impression of a three-section staff was truly not deep.
She lowered her head and carefully examined the playful cloud, then looked up, facing the empty space in the corridor ahead.
The playful cloud is a very special Cursed Tool. Its use is unrelated to Cursed Energy and is directly proportional only to arm strength, or physical power.
Chinatsu maintained a rhythmic breathing cycle, trying her best to condense the power within her body and convert it into arm strength.
Her eyes narrowed, and she gripped one section of the three-section staff, swiftly striking and swinging it forward into the empty space.
Bang!!!
A deafening whoosh exploded, and everyone around her, except Satoru Gojo, changed their expressions upon hearing the loud noise, letting out exclamations of surprise.
"As expected of a special grade cursed tool..."
In contrast to the astonishment of those around her, Chinatsu was not surprised by this power, because if it was only this level, her fist, imbued with "Blue," could also achieve it.
A Jujutsu Sorcerer using the Limitless Cursed Technique can imbue their fists with "Blue" to enhance them.
In the original work, Satoru Gojo's later students would involuntarily feel their heads heavy just recalling his fists, directly stating that they were beaten to the point of almost vomiting. The description was that it seemed to hit simply, yet it felt like being struck by a moving truck.
To effectively use the playful cloud, pure physical strength is indeed required, and Chinatsu's physical strength... Although Chinatsu really wanted to boast about her strength, reality didn't allow it.
She then turned her head to look at Suguru Geto beside her. In her memory, when the playful cloud was unveiled and displayed, his eyes involuntarily widened like brass bells, and his butt even lifted from the seat, almost instantly standing up, watching the playful cloud with fervent eyes.
Well, it's normal for him to be interested in the playful cloud. His purpose for this trip was to acquire a Cursed Tool that could enhance his close-combat abilities.
In the original work, he also used the playful cloud. After Toji's death, the Cursed Tools in Toji's Cursed Tool vault were confiscated, and the playful cloud fell into Suguru Geto's hands.
From then on, whenever Suguru Geto encountered close combat, he would eagerly pull out the playful cloud and just go for it.
What is this called?
This is called Cursed Spirit Manipulation is my talent, but close combat is my hobby.
Suddenly remembering a meme from "Under One Person," Chinatsu couldn't help but laugh, and the playful cloud in her hand was smoothly tossed into Suguru Geto's hands.
Suguru Geto instantly panicked at the sight of it. He hurriedly spoke, wanting to return the playful cloud, but Chinatsu casually waved her hand.
"Don't be so nervous. Aren't you in need of a close-combat Cursed Tool? Consider this lent to you. Of course, if you fall in love with this Cursed Tool, you can also buy it from me~"
Suguru Geto listened to Chinatsu's words. He lowered his head, his gaze falling upon the three-section staff playful cloud in his hands, and a warmth surged through his heart.
"Thank you..."
Afterward, Chinatsu and the others left Kagoshima in a special car. Actually, Chinatsu had initially planned to look for Toji again to talk to him, but Toji slipped away too quickly.
Days passed. Since acquiring the playful cloud, whenever Suguru Geto went out to perform Jujutsu missions, he would wield the playful cloud and unleash a barrage of attacks on low-grade Cursed Spirits, pulverizing them into dregs.
Originally, Suguru Geto's attitude towards low-grade Cursed Spirits was that even small mosquitoes were still meat; no matter how weak, he would subdue and then swallow them, despite being disgusted by it.
However, after having the playful cloud, he shifted a portion of his training focus to hand-to-hand combat, and he gradually became pickier about devouring Cursed Spirits, trying his best to only devour high-level Cursed Spirits.
In this way, compared to Suguru Geto in the original work, his Cursed Spirit Manipulation level would undoubtedly decline slightly, but his hand-to-hand combat skills would undoubtedly see a great improvement.
Of course, the biggest point was still that it made Suguru Geto's life easier and more comfortable.
This was also one of Chinatsu's goals.
In the following time, Chinatsu continued to practice at her own pace. Although the speed of her power improvement gradually slowed down, Chinatsu didn't put too much pressure on herself, because she believed that she would definitely be fine.
Performing a Jujutsu mission as usual, Chinatsu arrived before an abandoned mine shaft.
The government had originally planned to reopen this mine, but various accidents occurred during the initial excavation process, even resulting in casualties, making the situation extremely serious.
At this moment, Chinatsu quietly looked up, gazing at the abandoned mine shaft in front of her. A hint of madness appeared on her cute face.
"This Cursed Energy... Could it be a Special Grade Cursed Spirit?"
