The news spread like wildfire across Tokyo Jujutsu High.
The Zenin clan—destroyed.
Elite sorcerers—dead.
Naoya—defeated and missing.
And one name echoing through every hallway—
The Sorcerer Killer.
Inside an empty training hall, fists slammed repeatedly into a wooden post.
Crack.
Crack.
CRACK.
Splinters flew.
Standing there, breathing heavily, eyes burning with anger—
Yuji Itadori.
"They were still people…" Yuji muttered under his breath.
Even if they were corrupt.
Even if they were arrogant.
They didn't deserve slaughter.
Not like that.
The Weight of Death
Yuji remembered the reports.
No cursed energy detected.
No lingering techniques.
Just pure physical destruction.
Only one man fit that description.
Toji Fushiguro.
Yuji clenched his fists harder.
"He's killing everyone connected to jujutsu… He won't stop."
A familiar voice echoed from inside him.
Low. Mocking.
"You sound upset, brat."
The presence of Ryomen Sukuna stirred within his soul.
Yuji's jaw tightened.
"Shut up."
Sukuna laughed softly.
"He's interesting. A human without cursed energy cutting down sorcerers? I almost want to see him."
"You won't touch him," Yuji growled.
Sukuna's voice turned amused.
"Oh? You think you can stop either of us?"
Silence.
Yuji punched the wall again.
This time, it cracked.
A Decision Made
Later that night, Yuji stood alone outside the campus.
Wind moved through the trees.
He wasn't the strongest.
He wasn't the smartest.
But he couldn't stand by and watch more people die.
If Toji was targeting sorcerers—
Then Yuji would confront him.
Not because of orders.
Not because of duty.
But because someone had to stop the killing.
"I'll end this," Yuji whispered to himself.
The Hunter Feels It
Miles away, walking along a deserted highway under moonlight—
Toji suddenly stopped.
He felt nothing supernatural.
No cursed energy spike.
No barrier shift.
But something subtle—
Intent.
Someone had made up their mind.
Toji adjusted the blade resting on his shoulder.
Another challenger.
Another sorcerer driven by emotion.
He exhaled slowly.
"They never learn."
The Calm Before Collision
Back at Jujutsu High, Yuji stood firm, determination in his eyes.
Inside him, Sukuna smiled wider than ever.
Because whether Yuji wanted revenge or not—
The King of Curses was excited.
And soon—
The Sorcerer Killer and the vessel of Sukuna would meet.
And when they did—
The battlefield would not remain the same.
