Chapter 297 - Chapter 8: Tiny Prodigies

The chaos in Wasuke's house somehow continued escalating naturally.

Tiny Yuji had discovered Todo's muscles.

Todo had accepted this as a sacred responsibility.

Tiny Takeru was currently standing on the couch giving Panda a motivational speech about dinosaurs.

Meanwhile—

older Takeru crouched down in front of the tiny versions of himself and Yuji with narrowed eyes.

"…Alright."

Yuji immediately noticed the look.

"…Why do you look like a scientist."

"…Research."

Megumi sighed.

"…That's worse."

Takeru looked directly at tiny Takeru first.

"Do you know what cursed energy is?"

Tiny Takeru immediately nodded proudly.

"Why yes I do."

Silence.

Young Gojo blinked.

"…Why did he answer like a tiny professor."

Takeru looked impressed already.

"…Nice."

Then he continued.

"How about cursed techniques?"

Tiny Takeru thought carefully.

Then held his hand flat sideways.

"…Half-half."

The room paused.

Higuruma adjusted his glasses slightly.

"…That's actually a very intelligent answer for a child."

Older Geto nodded slowly.

"He understands the concept without fully grasping the mechanics."

Takeru looked genuinely proud now.

"…Very grand."

Tiny Takeru smiled proudly at the praise.

Then Takeru leaned forward slightly.

"Do you want to learn and be like me?"

Instantly—

both tiny Takeru and tiny Yuji screamed together.

"YEAH!"

The house practically shook from the excitement.

Tiny Yuji started bouncing immediately.

"POWERS!"

Tiny Takeru pointed dramatically at older Takeru.

"I WANNA DO COOL STUFF!"

Older Gojo immediately joined in.

"THAT'S MY NEPHEW!"

"…Not biologically," Shoko corrected instantly.

"…Spiritually."

Tiny Yuji grabbed older Yuji's sleeve excitedly.

"CAN I PUNCH CURSES!?"

Yuji looked emotional immediately.

"…Yeah."

A smile.

"And you'll be really good at it."

Tiny Yuji grinned brightly.

Tiny Takeru meanwhile was already interrogating older Takeru rapidly.

"Can I fly?"

"…Sometimes."

"Can I shoot lasers?"

"…Kinda."

"Can I punch walls?"

"…Absolutely."

Tiny Takeru gasped dramatically.

"…PEAK."

Hakari pointed immediately.

"THAT IS DEFINITELY HIM."

Sukuna watched the tiny versions carefully.

Then smirked faintly.

"…The loudness truly transcends time."

Tiny Takeru suddenly looked at Sukuna.

"…Can you shoot lasers?"

"…Yes."

"…COOOOOL!"

Sukuna froze slightly.

Clearly not used to being admired by kindergarteners.

Tiny Yuji pointed at Sukuna too.

"You look evil."

"…Correct."

"Awesome."

Even Sukuna looked caught off guard by that response.

Takeru stood up proudly now.

"Alright."

He cracked his knuckles dramatically.

"Tiny training arc begins soon."

The entire room yelled instantly.

"NO."

Tiny Takeru pointed aggressively.

"YES."

Tiny Yuji copied him immediately.

"YES!"

Wasuke sighed deeply into his hands.

"…I'm doomed."

And somehow—

watching the tiny versions of themselves laugh and dream about becoming strong—

everyone from the future felt something warm settle in their chest.

Because for once—

they could see the beginning again.

Before pain.

Before loss.

Before all the tragedy.

Just kids.

Excited about the future.
