The Goofy Spring Breeze Blows Everywhere, Geto's Sister is Truly Impressive Ch. 54

Just now... Toji definitely had a chance to seriously injure him. So why hold back at the last second?

"Thank your sister," Toji said like he'd read his mind. He gave a little nod and spoke slowly, "After all, I still need to get money from her."

Toji: Gotta be gentle with the kid, or his sister might dock my pay.jpg

Suguru Geto: "......"

That tiny flicker of regained rationality shattered again.

System (screaming): [DADDY!! DADDY PLEASE STOP DROPPING THESE BRUTALLY HONEST "CHIHORI-STYLE" LINES!!]

Suguru Geto: ...So it was still all just about scamming her money!

"I'm definitely gonna kill you!" Suguru roared, eyes blazing with fury as he forced himself to push through the pain of being kicked, summoning more cursed spirits. "I'm not gonna show you any mercy!!"

Toji easily dodged the attack with his enhanced body and quickly countered with a slash. "Why so worked up? Chill, we're gonna be seeing a lot more of each other." After all, they had signed a partnership contract.

Suguru nearly coughed up blood. The rage twisting on his face could've been turned into a meme, "Get lost! Stay the hell away from my sister—!!"

"She doesn't seem to agree," Toji said. "We're meeting up again after this."

System: [DADDY—! Daddy, please stop talking! Suguru's about to ascend into the stratosphere and high-five the sun!!]

Suguru was shaking with fury, his eyes blazing as he stared down the man in front of him.

This bastard... Unforgivable! He had to make him pay. No matter what!!

"Still wanna fight?" Toji raised an eyebrow. "Geez. Just let me finish my job already."

Suguru clenched his teeth. Never before had he so desperately wanted to power up.

He used to think he was already at the peak of sorcerer strength—but now he was being pushed back by someone with no cursed energy at all—

He thought he could protect the weak. Protect his sister. And now, when it actually mattered, he was completely powerless.

Rage, worry, grief—an overwhelming mix of emotions flooded his chest. Suguru shoved it all down, tuned out the rest of the world, and focused on one thing: taking down the man in front of him!

Toji raised a brow and casually said, "You've got a cherry growing outta your shoulder."

Suguru Geto: "Go to hell!!!"

His mind blank with fury, he didn't even process what Toji said. He just kept hurling cursed spirits at him—and also, without thinking, grabbed whatever heavy thing was on his shoulder and threw it aside—

A fat, red cherry flew through the air in a perfect arc.

Having just healed himself with a newly mastered Reversed Cursed Technique, Satoru arrived at the scene.

The moment he stepped into the main hall, he saw something flying through the air toward him—a huge, monstrous-looking red cherry that looked very much like it was ready to blow.

Satoru Gojo: "?"

Satoru Gojo: Eh? What the hell is that??

System: [!! RUN, SATORU GOJO—RUN NOW!!]

Cherry Bomb, sparkly debut moment.jpg

Even though he had no idea why a pair of angry-looking cherries suddenly popped out of Suguru's body, Toji had already seen what some of Chihori's other cartoon-style plants could do.

So when the cherries came flying at him, even without knowing what they did, Toji still wisely and decisively chose to dodge.

Turned out, Toji was right.

Because the moment the cherry hit the ground, a white-haired guy popped out of nowhere.

Yep, that white-haired guy was none other than Satoru Gojo, who had rushed over and just jumped down!

Satoru Gojo, panting slightly from the rush, looked up—only to see a giant, flaming red cherry coming straight at his face.

System: [That's a legit flaming cherry!! Like, the kind that explodes!!]

Standing still, Satoru stared at the descending cherry and said with half amusement, half curiosity:

"Whoa, this cherry's way bigger than I thought—and it even has a face."

System: [Stop staring, Satoru Gojo!! Run for your life—!!]

Toji landed not far away, casually flipped his knife into place, pulled out his phone from Ugly Treasure's mouth, and started filming the new plant for documentation.

That way, when he went back to Chihori, maybe he could score some extra cash.

Toji: Peak work ethic.

At the same time, Satoru Gojo, still completely unaware of how serious this was, stood rooted in place. He even had enough brain space to look up and comment on the cherry's looks, "It's kinda cute, though not as cute as a sunflower."

Time felt like it slowed to 0.5x speed. Satoru tilted his head, eyes fixed on the cherry falling right in front of him—and the second it hit the ground—

"BOOM!!!"

The ground exploded with a massive blast, shaking the entire hall for several seconds!

—and flying high through the black-and-gray smoke came a flaming, pissed-off naughty-cat (???)

Flaming, pissed-off naughty-cat Satoru Gojo (with that expression): ...Why the hell did the cherry explode?! Who did this?! WHO?!

The reverse cursed technique he'd just started learning—and was still super unskilled at—got an instant level-up under the pressure of life-or-death in that very moment!

Satoru Gojo: Force-leveled-up-skill.jpg

Toji stepped on a nearby cursed spirit's body, launched himself higher in a relay-style leap, and kept recording with his phone, catching every frame of the aftermath to turn in for cash later.

Soaring through the air, Satoru felt the wind brushing his face and body, felt the surge of power from the skill he'd just gotten the hang of, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Noticing Toji filming beside him midair, Satoru quickly shifted his pose toward the camera, struck a confident stance, and laughed boldly. "Throughout heaven and earth, I alone am the honored one!"

A classic line! (Even if the art style had totally changed)

Suguru, finally catching on, looked up at the flying, white-haired chicken-cat in shock, eyes wide, "Satoru?! What are you doing here?—Are you okay?! Why'd you get blown up?!"

Satoru-on-midair, "Who the hell threw that cherry at me?!"

Suguru echoed, "Who threw the cherry?!"

Toji landed, lifted his eyelids lazily, and said out of nowhere, "You did, little brother. I told you earlier there was a cherry growing on your shoulder, and then you just flung it off."
