Saiyans Forbidden from Crossing Worlds to Steal Jobs Ch. 35

Like the saying went: average-looking people acting chuunibyo looked lame, but good-looking people doing it was called style and cool.

Even as sorcerers, image mattered!

And carrying around these thick, ugly shells—what the hell would they look like?

On top of that, they were in a hideous shade of purple!

Everyone stepped back together.

Nope! Not happening!

"Don't be so picky, okay? They might be ugly, but they're super effective."

"Wearing this will really make me stronger?" Maki's gaze paused on that awful purple. Nope, still too much of an eyesore—she turned away.

"Why turtle shells, though?" Panda couldn't help but ask. "I'm a panda. I don't wanna carry a turtle shell."

"I don't wanna carry that either..." Okkotsu spoke up, resisting too.

Tokyo was used to weird outfits, but nobody went around carrying turtle shells!

"Salmon salmon!!!" Inumaki made an X with his arms. "Bonito! Flakes!!!"

"It's turtle shells to respect the original," Ikki said with a dead-serious face. "Plus they're simple, practical, and cheap."

She could just grab some stones, gravel, iron chunks, or ore, mash them together, and it worked. If she had to get custom-made ones, that'd cost a ton!

Broke people had no right to waste money!

Everyone: somehow it feels like that last part was actually the main point.

"Then why is it purple?"

"Ah, that..." Ikki's eyes drifted a little, because back then the store had thrown in free purple paint.

Saving money.

As long as it was free, who cared about looks? She wasn't the one wearing it anyway.

"Eh." Ikki waved her hand. "That's not important. If you don't like it, you can change the color yourselves."

"The most important thing is..." She gave a thumbs up. "Once you put this on, when the special training is over, your strength will definitely be way stronger than now."

Stronger than now!

Maki was tempted!

"If it really can make me stronger..." She gritted her teeth, walking forward like she was facing death. "Then even carrying this thing, I don't care!!!!"

Hearing that, Panda and the others immediately looked at her with deep respect.

Maki, we salute you!

You're a real badass!!!

Zen'in Maki, a not-yet-complete Heavenly Restriction, wasn't on Fushiguro Toji's level in every aspect, but she was still one of the strongest in physical ability at Jujutsu High. She thought carrying a turtle shell wouldn't be a problem, but once she put it on, she realized just how heavy it was.

Maki was shocked. This kind of weight that completely restricted her movements—yet the girl across from her had lifted four of them like it was nothing. So this was special grade strength?

Looked like she was still far behind.

Maki's gaze grew determined. She would definitely become special grade!

"So heavy!" Seeing her actually wear it, everyone else exchanged looks for a few seconds, then one by one put theirs on too.

"Salmon." Inumaki quietly tugged his collar higher.

If he had to keep carrying this thing around, Okkotsu thought maybe he should copy Inumaki and cover the lower half of his face too...

"You can't use cursed energy," Ikki said. "During training, you can only rely on your own body strength."

"These weights will slow you down, but at the same time, they'll subtly improve your physical ability. So, if you use cursed energy, then carrying it becomes meaningless."

They all understood, and Okkotsu released the cursed energy he'd been unconsciously maintaining.

Then, Ikki pulled out a small black ball and handed it to Panda.

"What's this?" Panda curiously looked it over.

"This is a timed bomb." Ikki clasped her hands behind her back, pacing like some old man in an alley, speaking slowly, "In thirty minutes, it'll automatically explode."

"Eh, eh?!!!"

"Don't worry, it's not a real bomb."

"Inside the bomb, I spent big money to buy canned herring."

Everyone: Canned herring!!!

Canned herring, the legendary thing that smelled worse than dog crap, made you gag at just a whiff, and stank up your whole body if you touched it—basically a biological weapon in a can!

Normal people couldn't handle it!
Jujutsu sorcerers couldn't handle it either!!

Panda's paw holding the bomb instantly trembled.

He was a panda radiating fresh sunshine scent, but if this thing went off in his hands, wouldn't he turn into a Stinky Panda?

No way.

He shoved the canned herring bomb into Inumaki's hands.

"Mustard leaf!!!" Inumaki's eyes went wide, and he immediately passed it to Okkotsu.

Okkotsu glanced at Maki but didn't dare give it to her, so he just held it honestly.

At this moment, the assistant instructor girl Ikki continued.

"Now I'll announce the rules."

"This herring bomb cannot touch the ground. If it drops, it'll count as a total failure for all of you. As punishment, each of you will have to eat one whole can of canned herring."

Everyone: !!!

Holy shit!!!

Are you the devil?!!!!

Devil Ikki went on, "The herring bomb will automatically explode in thirty minutes. And you guys cannot leave the space I've marked. If you do, it'll also count as failure."

Everyone: !!!

"Now, the timer starts!"

As soon as her words fell, everyone bolted.

Okkotsu, who had only just enrolled not long ago, froze for a second. When he realized what was happening, he instantly panicked.

"Ahhhh!!!!" He bolted after them.

He couldn't let himself turn into Stinky Yuta!

Rika would hate him!

She would definitely hate him!

The Pure Love Warrior could not turn into the Pure Stinky Warrior!

Okkotsu sprinted with all his strength.

Closest to him, Inumaki saw him coming and shouted, "Fish flakes!!!"

"Sorry, Inumaki-kun, I don't understand what you're saying."

"But since you like eating fish so much, herring should be fine too."

Inumaki spun around, crossing his arms in an X, "Fish flakes!!! Fish! Flakes!!!!"

But the moment he turned, the herring bomb came flying at his face.

Inumaki twisted, leapt, and shut his eyes—

Wait. If the bomb hit the ground, they'd all have to eat herring too!

Inumaki's pupils quaked.

Yameteee!

He stretched his long arm and barely caught it.

But when he turned his head, he saw Okkotsu pulling his hand back.

"Inumaki-kun, sorry." Okktosu spun and ran.

That sly first-year!!!

"Salmon roe! Tuna mayo! Mustard leaf!!!" Inumaki roared and took off straight after Okkotsu.

Maki and Panda stood to the side, watching the chaos.
