Chapter 111: Susanoo.
"Another earthquake? What on earth is going on?"
Okkotsu Yuta felt the ground tremble and started walking towards the distance.
...
Tatsuro picked up the long sword that had fallen to the ground and walked slowly towards Suguru Geto.
'Incarnate Tamamo-no-Mae' formed a technique seal with its hands. Several cursed energy cannons appeared out of thin air from the surroundings, unleashing a wanton bombardment on the moving Tatsuro.
Boom! Boom! Thump!
After a few seconds, the attack stopped, and dust filled the air. Just as 'Incarnate Tamamo-no-Mae' thought it had finished him, a skeletal hand formed of cursed energy reached out to grab it!
"Hoo~"
Tatsuro let out a light breath, looking at the Special Grade Hypothetical Cursed Spirit grasped in his hand. It had a hard-to-detect defensive technique layered on its body; no wonder the previous 'Sage Art: Ultra-Big Ball Rasengan' seemed to do no damage.
As the skeletal hand began to squeeze, 'Incarnate Tamamo-no-Mae' also emitted "squeak, squeak, squeak" sounds of resistance. It had already endured too many attacks, and its cursed energy was nearly depleted.
'Sage Art: Ultra-Big Ball Rasengan,' 'Sage Art: Cursed Speech,' 'Surging Fists.' It had withstood all these technique attacks by itself.
Suguru Geto, sensing that 'Incarnate Tamamo-no-Mae' was about to give out, now gripped 'Playful Cloud' and fiercely stabbed at Tatsuro, who was surrounded by the cursed energy skeleton.
"Crack—!"
The skeleton shattered, and the red [Playful Cloud] instantly plunged into Tatsuro's shoulder. Seeing his success, Suguru Geto gripped the other end of the staff with his left hand and aimed directly for Tatsuro's neck.
He had already wasted too much time and could not hold back any longer. He had to take out Okkotsu Yuta quickly and take Rika Orimoto!
"Pfft—"
[Playful Cloud] instantly pierced Tatsuro's neck. Tatsuro offered no resistance whatsoever. It was too smooth, so smooth that Suguru Geto felt it was abnormal.
After all, a Special Grade wasn't so easy to kill. The power he had just unleashed could have been called that of a Special Grade Sorcerer without exaggeration.
After three breaths, the Tatsuro who had been pierced through the neck instantly shattered like a mirror. The broken mirror surface reflected Geto's astonished face, as well as Tatsuro's bizarre pupils.
A voice came from all directions. The mirror shards scattered on the ground showed Tatsuro's face, his left eye now bleeding.
"You can never reach me. I will annihilate your soul in this 'Mirror World'."
Then, four mirrors appeared in the sky, with Tatsuro's head appearing in each. "They" looked down upon Suguru Geto, who stood on the ground, warily looking around.
Then, his right eye began to spin and contract. Blood flowed from the corner of his eye, slowly streaking across his face.
"Crack—"
Space itself began to fracture as if it were shattering glass. And Suguru Geto, caught in the cracks, looked as if he had seen a ghost. He didn't understand what Tatsuro's cursed technique was.
His body was being torn apart by these spatial cracks, the pain piercing his very heart, as if striking his soul directly.
The heart-wrenching pain made Suguru Geto unable to stop himself from roaring loudly, as if doing so would make it better.
"Crack—"
Space shattered once more. Suguru Geto's body began to split open, revealing ghastly white bones. His right arm was directly torn off, ground into dust by the shattering space. His neck began to break open.
"Tatsu...ro...!" Suguru Geto roared, looking up at the four mirrors in the sky. He couldn't feel the cursed energy in his body at this moment. Due to the spatial distortion and shattering, his eyes felt like they were splitting open.
"Crack—"
Seemingly having reached its limit, Tatsuro was now engulfed by the side effects of his Mangekyo Sharingan. The 'Mirror World' shattered!
Suguru Geto also returned to his own body, kneeling on the ground, panting heavily. His right arm felt like it was "gone," now completely without sensation.
He looked up at Tatsuro, whose eyes had reverted to the three-tomoe Sharingan. His current state didn't seem too good either.
"My eyes..."
Tatsuro, forced back to the three-tomoe Sharingan by the pain, now felt things were not good. 'Mirror World' plus 'Mirror Shatter' actually didn't tear his head off, just ripped off one of his arms. And my visual range has also shrunk. Is this the side effect of the Mangekyo Sharingan?
Left eye, 'Mirror World'. Sees through essence, directly gazes into another's soul, and pulls it into a mirror world.
Right eye, 'Mirror Shatter'. Within the 'Mirror World,' it can cause space to shatter like a mirror, directly striking another's soul.
This was his current understanding of these eyes, but he felt there were other abilities yet to be developed.
"Hahaha! Tatsuro, in the end, I still won, didn't I?"
Suguru Geto slowly stood up. He had already guessed that it was his soul that had been torn apart just now. As he moved drastically, the damage to his soul also appeared on his body.
His neck was split open, and gashes appeared on his face. But he didn't care. Now, as long as he stepped over him, he could obtain the Queen of Curses, Rika Orimoto!
This rotten world would finally be ended by him. The gates to a new world had already opened!
"I... will not let you pass."
Tatsuro pulled [Playful Cloud] out from his shoulder and tossed it to the ground. Enduring the pain that shot straight to his brain, his three-tomoe Sharingan condensed once more.
As bloody tears flowed, Tatsuro took a deep breath and said, "I won't let you take another step forward, unless... you kill me."
"Looks like that's my only option."
Suguru Geto raised his left hand towards the sky and said, "Honestly, I think very highly of you. Even though you almost killed me, it's the same. The future new world needs talent like you. But since you insist on blocking my path to the new world, I can only kill you."
"I will combine all 541 cursed spirits I currently possess into one to deal with you. Cursed Spirit Manipulation, Ultimate Art: 'Uzumaki'."
As he spoke, a giant vortex formed by countless intertwined arms appeared, as if forcibly compressed. The facial features of the cursed spirits appeared on the arms.
"I will use this move to completely crush you!"
Looking at such a powerful amalgamation of cursed energy, Tatsuro couldn't help but feel powerless at this moment. Panda's life was uncertain, and Inumaki Toge was completely unconscious due to the side effects of his technique. But at least Okkotsu and Maki were safe for now.
"But... let's give it a try," Tatsuro muttered to himself and then roared loudly, "Who dies is not yet certain!"
A light blossomed in his eyes, and the 'Susanoo' began to construct. The upper-body skeletal frame quickly took shape, but it didn't end there. As muscles filled it in, the originally empty eyes began to glow, staring intently at Suguru Geto not far away. A heavy Tengu-like shell then covered its body.
The semi-perfect form of 'Susanoo' manifested, its left hand gripping a longbow, a long sword tucked at its waist, and a giant shield on its back.
Seeing Tatsuro still possessed such a technique, Suguru Geto couldn't help but roar, "Why must you always obstruct me!"
"Then why did you have to touch the people closest to me!"
The two attacked simultaneously. The Ultimate Art 'Uzumaki' began to condense all the cursed energy within it.
The semi-perfect 'Susanoo' began to draw its bow, all the cursed energy within Tatsuro now gathered into this one arrow, also mixed with the 'Mirror Shatter' ability of his right eye.
"Go to hell!" the two shouted at the same time.
A massive cursed energy cannon shot out instantly. The 'Susanoo' also released its bowstring, and a crimson arrow shot forth.
The two immense energies collided. The space within tens of meters instantly shattered like a mirror.
Thump!!!
The aftershock instantly engulfed both of them. Tatsuro's cursed energy had long since bottomed out; he was standing only through sheer willpower. The 'Susanoo,' without cursed energy to support it, was dispersed by the aftershock.
Tatsuro crashed into a wall, his life or death unknown.
'Incarnate Tamamo-no-Mae' was caught in the shattering space and perished on the spot. The Ultimate Art 'Uzumaki' was dispelled due to cursed energy depletion. Suguru Geto, heavily injured, knew the tide had turned against him and fled, leaning against a wall.
He muttered, "I never thought... I never thought I would lose to him. Next time, wait...!"
Suguru Geto was startled, looking at the approaching Gojo Satoru. He knew it was all over for him. He slid down the wall and sat on the ground, smiling, "You're back fast, Satoru."
