Bony Boy goes to JJK World
Hello there, Author here. Funny story guys, remember that I went to a family event this weekend... well. I got food poisoning from it and was taken out of action for nearly a full day. Short chapter once again, sorry.
-Lots of spoilers on JJK read at your own risk.-
Kashimo's pov
"This guardian's weak spot is behind this plug. If I could just get it out... " Kashimo thought as he climbed Gargatua's leg while sending his electricity into the guardian's body. The damage was low considering what the guardian could take, but it was significant enough to allow Maharoga to attack.
After he had failed to deliver significant damage to the guardian, Kashimo started attacking randomly at different locations trying to pille as much damage as he could while avoiding the shikigami. 'I'm wasting too much time here... I want to fight Sukuna right now. But how am I going to beat this thing? ' Kashimo thought as he jumped over Gargantua's hand right as it was about to smack him away from his body.
Kashimo used the arm as a platform to jump toward the chest and attacked right where Gargantua had used its finger to close the hole. 'I have to find a way to attack the core directly or we're just gonna stay here losing more time. ' Kashimo thought as he pierced the stone with his staff before sending out his cursed energy. Once again, the attack was successful but this time, it dealt even less damage than when he was simply targeting randomly since he was focused the energy to run through the area where the finger touched the chest.
He then wiggled the staff around while it was still stuck in the rocks and noticed that the stone moved a little. 'Yes! The gap is big enough for a knife. If continue to break it apart like this I'll be able to pull it out in no time. ' Kashimo thought as he felt Gargantua's body moving around too much. The guardian pulled its foot high into the air before placing all of its weight on it. Mahoraga who was now on the floor with one leg missing, found itself in the shadow of the foot.
"Mahoraga... I've never heard of someone who was able to compete with it for this long... much less leave it like that. " Megumi said as he watched the shikigami trying to get up before Gargantua took a massive step forward crushing Mahoraga underneath its foot.
The whole layer shook as Gargantua repeated the same attack several times a few more times. Megumi could only watch as the dust, dirt, and trees were being thrown around as the guardian continued to crush Mahoraga for a few more seconds until he finally felt something that he didn't expect to ever feel. His shadow wobbled for a moment and Megumi felt the binding vow required to summon the shikigami disappear. 'No way... Mahoraga just. ' Megumi thought as he immediately performed the hand signs for summoning Mahoraga. Megumi's eyes widened when he saw the most powerful shikigami emerge from his shadow.
This time there was no ritual, no binding vow, or side effects. Mahoraga simply showed up like his regular shikigami and stood right behind the jujutsu sorcerer. "It lost. " Megumi said as he turned his head back to the guardian who immediately began to punch its body trying to crush the next target.
"This is great. Great I tell you. Now that the distraction is dead, how am I going to beat this thing alone promptly? " Kashimo thought as he quickly jumped away from Gargantua's chest. Now that the guardian could focus on Kashimo, the ancient shikigami could no longer remain still for more than a few seconds before the remaining hand of the guardian hit the location.
Thankfully, because Gargantua only had a single hand left, as long as he avoided the right side, the guardian had only one limb to attack. This, however, was not guaranteed, as the guardian could just roll on the floor again, but Kashimo believed that he could avoid hail marry moves that Gargantua might use. The only problem was the time it would take to beat it.
"Another attack. Let's see if it's lost. " Kashimo said as he jumped from the moving hand to the chest. He then stuck the staff into the wall and tried to increase the gap between the two pieces. Kashimo quickly pulled the whole finger a few millimeters, the stone made a small cracking noise as the finger moved outward. "It's gonna work. " Kashimo said as he quickly pulled his staff out and moved away from the area.
Soon after that, Gargantua's hand landed near where the finger was pushing it forward a bit before going after the ancient jujutsu sorcerer. "So that's the plan... that crazy woman wants to expose the weak point. " Maki thought as she quickly jumped down and stuck her sword in between the cracks. She then turned the blade clockwise before pulling it toward the sky which created a huge line.
Kashimo saw as the finger moved a little bit because of the extra power placed by Maki's attack. He then ran up Gargantua's arm as he said, "Normally, we would be enemies, but I don't mind the extra help now. With her strength and my cursed energy, we might defeat this thing in 30 minutes or less. Hell, I might even let her go if we can do it in less than 25... as long as she doesn't get in my way, of course." Kashimo said as he reached the shoulder and unleashed another attack at the guardian forcing Gargantua to target him once more.
Gojo's pov
Aura's first volley of arrows stopped right before touching Gojo. 'What type of defensive barrier is that? ' Aura thought as signaled her pets to go inside the arena. 'Let's assume that it's a skill that blocks long-ranged attacks and try to change the approach. '
"It's not gonna work, Sister. That barrier is blocking both physical and magical attacks from every range. " Mare said as she finished buffing her sister. Aura glanced toward her brother before nodding. It became clear that to defeat the opponent it would require more than just a debuffing arrow.
Gojo was done watching and moved forward. He quickly ran through the insect monsters that Mare had brought out killing them with a single attack as he passed by. Aura's pets were barely able to reach their positions before being blown away by Gojo. 'That confirms it for me. No physical attack can touch him.. which means that I'm gonna have to figure out a weakness in that skill or bypass it entirely. What a troublesome opponent. ' Aura thought as she sent her bow back into the inventory by just throwing it to the side before extending her hand and calling upon her whip.
'Two guardians is really pushing it. I'm good for one Domain expansion, but after that, I have no idea how to deal with Sukuna and the other guardians. ' Gojo thought as he saw Aura move towards him. She moved the whip over her head before striking the ground a few times as a warm-up. 'And if my Domain misses one of them the other will be near impossible to beat them at that point. ' Gojo thought as Mare began casting something in the background.
Aura quickly moved to stay in between the enemy and her brother as she said, "Summon something to protect yourself, Mare. I'll try to see if I can figure out a weakness. " Aura said as she started walking forward slowly so that Mare could have enough time to summon an elemental.
[Summon Primal Earth Elemental]
Right in front of Mare, a huge magical circle appeared. 'It's another one of that stone shikigami she had brought out. ' Gojo thought as he immediately began preparing hollow purple before moving to the side, but when Aura quickly blocked his vision by mimicking his movements, Gojo switched strategy.
[Cursed Energy Amplification: Blue]
Aura felt as if her body was attacked by what she believed to be a magic spell. She winced in pain for a single moment as her leg twisted around itself before she decided to target Gojo himself with a direct attack. 'I can't let him go after Mare right away like that. I have to keep him focused on me until the elemental is out or I'm not gonna be able to experiment freely on him. ' Aura thought as she moved all of her weight to her good leg while swinging her whip above her head. She then extended her arms and tried to catch Gojo with the cursed tool, but the whip stopped right before touching her opponent which forced Aura to reconsider her strategy.
'So the other guardian is the back line? Not only it can strength the one with the whip, but it can also bring out shikigami for support, healing, and use powerful attacks. ' Gojo thought as the whip surrounded his body only to spot it right before touching him. 'Looks like they still haven't understood my cursed technique yet. '
'Even grabbing is not an option? That skill is too versatile. ' Aura thought right before hearing her brother's voice.
"S-sister, physical and magical, direct and indirect attacks. N-none of that will work against him until we fi-figure out the trick behind that skill. " Mare said while he was about to finish the summoning spell.
Gojo turned his head to Mare just as he said the final sentence. 'Magic... attacks... what does that even- ' Gojo stopped thinking for a second which bought enough time for Mare to summon the primal elemental. The guardian then jumped on top of the elemental before the thing began moving backward.
Aura tried to move the whip around Gojo's body looking for a blind spot on the barrier or an inactivity period while Gojo just stood there thinking. 'Normally you would have an opening somewhere on the barrier or at least a cooldown in between attacks, but this guy doesn't. What type of skill blocks all forms of damage- ' Aura stopped attacking as she came up with a possible answer.
But before either of them could try out their new theories, something entered the arena. Gojo immediately glanced to the walls where he saw a very familiar face jumping down while carrying an armored individual on her shoulder. Aura also turned her head for a single second before turning it back toward her opponent. 'What the hell do those people want now? Their mission is done. ' Aura thought as she continued to watch Gojo's movements.
"I was wondering why Sukuna was here of all places. It makes sense now. You betrayed us, Yuki. " Gojo said as he began thinking about the logistics of having to face two guardians, a fellow special grade jujutsu sorcerer, and possibly Sukuna, who thought the latter one wouldn't fight as a team and would instead just throw the battlefield into chaos.
"W-who are those two, Sister? " Mare asked as Yuki went in a straight line to the elemental.
"Sukuna is bound to the rules designed by Ainz to keep him away from the game for at least one hour, but after that, he'll destroy anyone in front of him. " Yuki said as she stopped right in front of Mare.
"And you want to move on to the next layer? Is that it? It's not part of the orders Ainz gave to me. " Aura asked as she continued to watch Gojo.
"The situation has changed, I have to go to preserve myself. Either that or you could excort me to the exit. I don't mind which. " Yuki said as her expression became serious.
Aura took a deep breath before saying, "Fine. Just wait until we beat this one first, then I'll take you out. " Aura said as she thought that Ainz still wanted to keep his humans alive.
Yuki dropped Jumpei to the side before saying. "Not enough time. Sukuna might try something before that so I'll help out too. " Yuki said as she clad herself in cursed energy and began walking to Gojo.
"Now you're gonna fight me too? I guess there really was a link between you talking with Geto and that attack a year ago. Seems like your priorities changed." Gojo said as he remembered the theory that Yuki convinced Geto to change sides before he went completely rogue. Gojo and Yuta refused to entertain those thoughts at that time, but it was becoming harder and harder to trust Yuki after she brought the message from Ainz to the group.
"All am doing now is to create a world free from cursed spirits. That hasn't changed." Yuki said as her shikigami emerged from her body. "If you just walk away from the arena and allow me to move to the next layer we wouldn't have to face each other. "
Gojo displayed a very serious expression as he placed both of his hands on his hair. "Yuki... you must understand one thing. I'll die before allowing a traitor to walk away from here. " Gojo said as he straight up ignored the guardians and rushed toward Yuki.
