Sukuna's eyes turned extremely solemn. There is no doubt that Kazuma's aura had surged once again.
What exactly is this technique that he has mastered?
Even he, the King of Curses, had never seen it before.
Boom!
Kazuma punched out, and the green-red flames were mixed with black lightning.
Sukuna's expression changed drastically. He knew that he couldn't withstand this move head-on, so he moved quickly and tried his best to dodge.
However, Kazuma's speed at this moment had surpassed Sukuna's. Although Sukuna tried his best to dodge, one of his arms was still blown off.
A black aura rose and blood splattered. Looking at the lost arm, Sukuna was furious.
"Little brat, you are looking for death!"
At this moment, Sukuna adjusted his cursed energy to the extreme.
A black energy, which was almost thick enough to be tangible, spread out. A crazy rain of fists came crashing down recklessly.
He had never felt so aggrieved before and no longer cared about anything else. However, this is inside the Black Flash Octagon Cage.
No matter how hard you try, it will be in vain if you can't land a Black Flash. Sukuna was just making his last struggle now.
After sending Sukuna flying with a punch, Kazuma suddenly had an idea. He had never opened the eighth gate.
In the past, he didn't dare to use it because the backlash was too great. But with his current physical strength, can he open it now?
In the distance, Sukuna spat out a mouthful of blood. He was seriously injured and had no time to get up before his eyes suddenly widened.
He seemed to sense something. The air was filled with the breath of death.
The little brat in front of him, whom he had always looked down upon, was now like a deadly demon.
...
At the same time, in the viewing room.
Maki, who felt something strange, took two steps back uncontrollably.
"Is it finally coming...?"
But can he really open the eighth gate?
No, it's not so much whether he can open the eighth gate, but whether he really dares to open the eighth gate.
With her current physique, she can open the seventh gate. But she never dared to open the eighth gate.
She remembered what Kazuma had told her when he had taught her this technique. Unless necessary, you must not forcefully open the last few gates.
Otherwise...you might even die.
Thinking of this, Maki's eyes began to show worry. She clearly knew that Kazuma could kill Sukuna right now at the seventh gate.
But how can he resist the stunning beauty of the Eighth Gate?
"This... does he have to be so ferocious?"
Gojo and the others also noticed the worry in Maki's eyes and couldn't help asking.
"Maki, the conditions for opening this eighth gate are very harsh?"
"Speaking of which, Maki-senpai, the seventh gate is called the Gate of Shock, so what is the name of the eighth gate?"
Maki took a deep breath and a smile appeared on his face.
She understood.
Besides the fact that he wants to witness and feel the power of the eighth gate, Kazuma has two other purposes.
One is to give enough respect to Sukuna. This is the tacit understanding between the strong.
The second is to display it for herself to see.
Thinking of this, Maki looked at the bright screen and said softly, "The eighth gate, gate of death!"
"Death... Gate of Death?"
Did he hear that correctly?
Gojo said in a deep voice, "This name sounds a bit too crazy, doesn't it?"
"Could it be the kind that can only be opened once in a lifetime, and will cause sudden death after opening it?"
Maki nodded, then shook her head. She said, "If it's Kazuma, the backlash might not be so severe."
"Indeed."
Shōko agreed, "His physique is very terrifying."
As one of the participants who was responsible for helping Kazuma fuse Hashirama cells, she knew Kazuma's physique very well.
That abnormal recovery ability is even comparable to Hakari's Idle Death Gamble.
Maki recalled, "First there was Night Guy. With all eight gates opened, he kicked the gods."
"???"
They had never thought that one day they would hear such a chuunibyou line from the aloof Maki.
Maki didn't feel embarrassed at all, but murmured to herself, "This is what Kazuma told me privately back then."
"I guess the Night Guy mentioned in this passage should be the creator of the Eight Inner Gates."
"And Kazuma should have taken over his legacy."
Everyone nodded after they realized what was happening.
They thought this Night Guy must be a very powerful sorcerer. At least his accomplishments in taijutsu are very impressive.
And he must be a very low-key person, otherwise there would be some record of him in the history of the Jujutsu world.
...
Within the domain.
Kazuma's aura had reached its peak. The entire domain began to shake.
'I must not let him continue to grow stronger.'
The sense of crisis of death surged into Sukuna's heart.
This feeling of fear was even stronger than when he was facing Gojo.
Kazuma's ultimate killer move had already brought such a terrifying sense of oppression before it was even launched.
At this moment, Sukuna truly realized Kazuma's strength. He should have taken him seriously earlier. He was confused by his strange ability before.
All of his attention was focused on Kazuma's Kamui. But Kazuma actually possessed such abnormal domain and taijutsu?
But no matter what, he is the King of Curses, he is the strongest.
While thinking, Sukuna's fist was already approaching Kazuma's chest.
Black lightning entangled his fist.
This was his full-strength attack. If it hit, it would penetrate Kazuma's heart and kill him instantly.
"There is only one strongest in this world, and that is me, the King of Curses!"
"Yeah?"
Kazuma suddenly opened his eyes, and after some breathing exercises, he adjusted his physical condition to the most perfect state.
In addition, his chakra quickly gathered towards the acupuncture points of the Gate of Death.
In this way, he can not only break through his limits and open the last gate, but also effectively protect himself.
The beating of the heart sounded like a death knell to Sukuna's ears.
Thump… Thump… Thump!
The entire area was filled with the sound of heavy and rapid heartbeats, strong and powerful.
Even those who were watching the battle could hear it clearly.
Kazuma's eyes flashed with madness, and he said excitedly, "Gate of Death, Open!"
In an instant, the original green chakra instantly turned into a red flame, and even his hair was dyed blood red.
A violent and uncontrollable aura swept over like a strong wind.
Blood-colored steam continued to rise from his head, symbolizing extremely strong vitality.
"This... this is the Death Gate..."
