Chapter 9 - Chapter 9: Gojo Takuya, The Master Craftsman's Adversary

"This is not the first-level Cursed Tool, give it back to me!"

Gojo Takuya felt the emptiness in his right hand, his expression filled with anger.

He didn't expect Gojo Shunichi to be so disrespectful and snatch Sode Shirayuki directly from him without his consent.

"Isn't this a Cursed Tool? Master Takuya is not kidding, right? I can still distinguish whether it is a Cursed Tool or not."

Gojo Shunichi raised his eyebrows, his heart filled with disdain.

Sure enough, the allure of a first-level Cursed Tool is something that even a master blacksmith desires? Does it make them greedy?

"No, this is not Ye Ning! This weapon was just forged by Michael. It is different from what you think."

Gojo Takuya's words made Gojo Shunichi's expression slightly stunned.

"The Cursed Tool forged by Gojo Michael?"

Gojo Shunichi's eyes flashed with suspicion, and then he burst into laughter.

"Are you kidding? Gojo Michael is only six years old and he can forge a Cursed Tool? Are you joking?"

"When did the Cursed Tool masters' entry threshold become so low? If that's the case, then let the other so-called failures in the Gojo family learn from you."

"For being able to train a six-year-old Cursed Tool blacksmith, I don't think I can call you Master Takuya anymore. I should call you Grandmaster Takuya, right?"

"Isn't that right, Master Takuya?"

Gojo Shunichi's sarcasm made Gojo Takuya's face turn blue and purple.

Although Gojo Takuya is a master of Cursed Tool forging, he is also known in the entire Cursed Tool forging world for not having an apprentice.

Many apprentices have studied with him, but none survived to the end. They all said they could not learn anything and chose new teachers.

Therefore, the word "master" is a burden for Gojo Takuya.

On the other side, Gojo Michael frowned and slowly opened his eyes.

The mental fatigue still hadn't faded away, but Gojo Shunichi's voice was too annoying and noisy, so he had to set his tiredness aside.

"For being able to train a six-year-old Cursed Tool blacksmith, I don't think I can call you Master Takuya anymore. I should call you Grandmaster Takuya, right?"

"Isn't that right, Master Takuya?"

Hearing the sarcasm in Gojo Shunichi's words, a chill appeared on Gojo Michael's face.

In this family, he is closest to Gojo Takuya!

Without Gojo Takuya's careful teaching, he would not have been able to improve his forging skills so quickly to meet the conditions for activating the Zanpakutō forging function.

So, who is Gojo Shunichi to dare to mock his master like this?

Gojo Michael sat up silently, coldly observing everything happening in front of him, preparing to defend his master's honor.

On the other side, Gojo Shunichi continued to mock Gojo Takuya.

"You said this Cursed Tool was forged by Gojo Michael? It's ridiculous. How could someone with his talent be suitable to be a Cursed Tool master, let alone forge a Cursed Tool at the age of six?"

"Absolutely impossible!"

Gojo Shunichi shook his head while pouring his curse power into the Cursed Tool.

The best he currently has is only a Level 2 Cursed Tool, and he has never tried the power of a Level 1 Cursed Tool.

He wanted to use this opportunity to experience the special abilities of this Cursed Tool named "Ye Ning."

But as the magic power was infused, Gojo Shunichi's expression suddenly froze.

He felt that his senses should not be wrong. This weapon should be a Cursed Tool, but why couldn't his curse have any effect?

This is not common sense at all!

Under normal circumstances, as long as it is a Cursed Tool, it can produce corresponding effects under the influence of curses!

Could it be that the characteristic of this Cursed Tool is pure physical power?

However, it shouldn't be; such pure physical power is not like the fighting style of the killer Jujutsu master named Haruki Arai.

No way? Gojo Shunichi's eyes widened subconsciously for a moment.

—[Is it really my misunderstanding? This weapon is not the Cursed Tool, but just an ordinary toy forged by Gojo Michael?]

—[This must be the case. Gojo Takuya must have looked at Gojo Michael's forging with colored glasses, so he thought it was a Cursed Tool!]

—[Damn it, you actually misled me! Where did Gojo Takuya hide the first-level Cursed Tool?]

"This is really not a Cursed Tool; it's really rubbish!"

"You are worthy of being the enemy of master craftsmen. It is obviously just an ordinary toy, but you still try to call such a thing a Cursed Tool!"

"Master Takuya, I wonder if your colleagues would cry silently on the sidelines if they saw you degenerate like this?"

"If you really don't have the talent to teach disciples, then you should do your own thing well, forge the Cursed Tool well, and continue to make your own contribution to the family instead of spending your energy on a waste..."

Gojo Shunichi's voice suddenly disappeared. When he pointed at Gojo Michael and called him useless, he found that Gojo Michael beside him had already woken up and was looking at him with an indifferent expression.

Gojo Shunichi's expression was a little embarrassed.

Although he had always thought so in his heart, he still could not say such words directly in front of the rightful master.

After all, Gojo Michael is a direct descendant of the Gojo family.

As long as the head of the family does not abolish Gojo Michael's inheritance rights, this "waste" in front of him may become the representative of the Gojo family in the future.

"Huh? Why don't you say anything, Uncle Shun."

"Can't you remember what you called me? I'm the failure of the Gojo family."

Gojo Michael shrugged off his weariness and jumped out of bed to stand by Gojo Takuya's side.

"Gojo Shunichi, have you forgotten that the Cursed Tool you are using was forged by Master Takuya?"

"Without Master's Cursed Tool, don't you know how many casualties you would have suffered during missions?"

"Haha, what makes you Jujutsu masters so superior? What, could it be said that your parents were also born Jujutsu masters?"

"Can you guarantee that your child will be a Jujutsu master in the future?"

The corners of Gojo Michael's mouth raised slightly. He was not someone who would not fight back when bullied.

"That is to say, Master Takuya has always been thinking about the kindness within the clan. Otherwise, where would he go without being respected by other Jujutsu masters?"

"What, do you really think of yourselves as the Big Three Sorcerer Families in the Jujutsu world? Do you really think that the Gojo family is invincible? Do you really think that the Gojo family will develop smoothly in the future just because they have Six Eyes who understand this?"

"Gojo Shunichi, you are an adult, why are you still so naive?"

Gojo Michael shrugged, his young face full of mockery.

"If Six Eyes is everything, then why are there Curses in this world? Why are there so many powerful Cursed Spirits? Why is the King of Curses, Ryomen Sukuna, still around?"

"If Six Eyes is really invincible, then why didn't any of the Six Eyes that came out of the Gojo family die a good death?"

"I know you will place all your hopes on Satoru! However, I want to tell you that Satoru is not invincible. Even if he has the best talent in the world, even if he has Six Eyes, and he masters limitless techniques..."

"Such a Satoru cannot be invincible!"

"Your expectations for him will only make him go astray."

"Satoru will definitely become the strongest Jujutsu master in the Jujutsu world in the future, but please don't underestimate those Curse Users and Cursed Spirits..."

"In the future, Satoru and I still have a long way to go!"

Although Gojo Michael's voice was childish, it seemed very sonorous and powerful at this moment.
