Chapter 97: A carpet-bombing attack with the enhanced Tyrannosaurus-mon's ultimate move!
"Why did that guy Shengzai fly so high?"
Seeing Shengzai stop at an altitude of a hundred meters while riding his toy dragon, Itadori, who was somewhat confused, asked the "professional" beside him once again.
However, this time, facing Itadori's inquiry, Fushiguro Megumi did not answer, because he also had no idea what Shengzai intended to do.
Previously, when the other party summoned a dragon-type shikigami and ascended, Fushiguro Megumi had thought Shengzai was about to withdraw from the battlefield.
After all, as long as Shengzai left with Sukuna's finger, the Cursed Spirits gathered here would naturally disperse quickly once the attraction of the Special Grade Cursed Object was gone.
Yet, before he could voice his opinion, Fushiguro Megumi noticed that Shengzai's strange behavior now did not seem like a retreat.
"Itadori, you two run as far away as you can! There are too many of these Cursed Spirits, and fighting them one by one is too inefficient. I'm going to use my ultimate move directly!"
Hearing Shengzai's shout from above, Itadori and Fushiguro Megumi were stunned for a moment. Then, before Itadori could react, Fushiguro Megumi's shikigami, Nue, grabbed the still-dazed Itadori with its claws and flew toward the rooftop of another teaching building in the distance.
As for Fushiguro Megumi himself, with the help of his two Divine Dogs, he leaped rapidly across the rooftops, evacuating the danger zone Shengzai had mentioned at top speed.
The power of the two shikigami, "Wei Huo Hu" and "Kang Jinlong," had already made Fushiguro Megumi acknowledge Shengzai's strength.
Although he didn't know what Shengzai's so-called "ultimate move" was, it was likely some kind of powerful technique.
Therefore, rather than staying behind and getting in the way, it was better for them to evacuate to a safe area as soon as possible to give Shengzai more room to perform.
Seeing Fushiguro Megumi's efficient reaction and actions, Shengzai, located in the sky, couldn't help but reveal a faint smile.
As expected of the most reliable man in the Jujutsu world besides Nanami (Nanami).
"Alright, the friendly forces have retreated, and Senior Sasaki and Senior Iguchi should have left this teaching building as well.
Then, let's use these Cursed Spirits here to test just how strong I am now!"
At first, Shengzai had intended to gather Cursed Energy in his feet and then, following the example of a certain cool and dashing goddess, deliver an ultimate flying kick from the sky.
But he realized that while the destructive power of a flying kick was immense, it was probably better suited for dealing with a boss that required concentrated explosive damage.
He was already skilled in taijutsu, and combined with his current Cursed Energy intensity and the advantage of falling from the sky, he might even be able to kick a Special Grade Cursed Spirit to death with one blow, even without a Domain.
Unfortunately, his opponents now were not Special Grade Cursed Spirits, but a large number of low-grade Cursed Spirits. Such a move might not only fail to wipe them all out but could even destroy this teaching building.
So, after hesitating for a moment, Shengzai finally decided to use Plan B.
As Shengzai stretched one hand forward, the temperature around him began to rise sharply, and a fireball began to expand rapidly in his hand at a speed visible to the naked eye!
At first, the fireball appearing in his palm was only about the size of a soccer ball, but soon it began to expand geometrically like an inflated balloon, reaching a diameter of two meters.
The fireball in Shengzai's hand was not a technique, but an ability of the Digital World Shengzai.
Last time, during the ability sharing in the Heart Dream Realm, the Koromon had already been able to evolve into the Mature Stage Greymon.
And the fireball in Shengzai's hand now was Greymon's ultimate move, "Mega Flame."
The two-meter-diameter orange fireball was held over Shengzai's head with one hand; its volume was already larger than Shengzai himself.
However, this was not the limit, because as Shengzai injected Cursed Energy into the "Mega Flame," the fireball, which had already reached two meters in diameter, suddenly expanded again as if it had been injected with hormones.
Three meters, four meters, five meters—when the massive fireball with a diameter of five meters was held in Shengzai's hand, even though he was a hundred meters in the air, Itadori and Fushiguro Megumi in the distance could see it clearly.
The high temperature emitted by the giant fireball even made the surrounding air feel somewhat scorching, and because it was late at night, the fireball Shengzai held in mid-air looked like a small sun.
"Fushiguro, are all the Jujutsu Sorcerers you mentioned earlier guys who possess this kind of power?"
Compared to the previous shikigami and taijutsu combat, the giant fireball Shengzai was holding now brought a much greater shock to Itadori.
And because he hadn't had contact with other Jujutsu Sorcerers, seeing both Shengzai and Fushiguro Megumi summon shikigami and use combat techniques, he assumed that all "Jujutsu Sorcerers" must be like this.
Facing Itadori's inquiry, Fushiguro Megumi didn't know how to answer, because even he couldn't figure out what kind of monster Shengzai was!
Powerful shikigami, impressive martial arts and physical abilities, and now even such an astonishing fire technique had appeared!
Logically speaking, most Jujutsu Sorcerers should only be proficient in one type of technique, right?
This didn't mean a Jujutsu Sorcerer could only master one technique, but that most Jujutsu Sorcerers needed to consume a vast amount of time and energy to refine their proficient techniques to a certain level.
Not everyone was a King of Curses like Ryomen Sukuna, possessing the talent and time to understand and master other techniques.
And judging by his age, Shengzai should be about the same as them. It would be one thing if his shikigami combat power was strong, but his martial arts and physical fitness were also so damn impressive.
Martial arts being impressive was one thing; after all, techniques and martial arts were two different things. Perhaps he was like Itadori, gifted in physical fitness.
But now that Shengzai had shown such outstanding ability in other techniques besides shikigami techniques, Fushiguro Megumi could only say that the guy was simply a beast!
"Kang Jinlong, use the Wind-Riding Technique!"
The giant fireball with a diameter of over five meters was thrown directly from the sky by Shengzai. At the same time, the Kang Jinlong he was riding coiled its body in the air, directly summoning a strong wind.
Kang Jinlong, one of the Eastern Azure Dragon constellations, was good at riding the wind. Because this was no longer the game world of SAO, without the restrictions of world rules, both "Wei Huo Hu" and "Kang Jinlong" could exert their inherent power to a greater extent.
The wind aided the fire's momentum, and the fire aided the wind's power. So, the moment the giant fireball with a diameter of over five meters smashed into the ground, the already astonishing fire became even more terrifying.
The instant the fireball hit the ground, it was like throwing a giant boulder into a calm lake. The curtain of fire that exploded outward was like ripples splashing in all directions, directly swallowing all the surrounding Cursed Spirits.
Even though they were quite far away, Fushiguro Megumi and Itadori still saw those Cursed Spirits, which had nowhere to hide, turn into ashes under the flames. Feeling the waves of heat rushing toward them, their faces were filled with shock.
