The sun rose steadily in the morning sky, casting a majestic glow over the Jujutsu High School, the haven for aspiring sorcerers. Its towering, ancient buildings had seen generations of students come and go, some living and some dying. Each one carried the weight of their responsibilities as protectors of the living world from curses and supernatural threats, knowing each day could be their last.
Among the students who walk these hallowed halls, there was one whose name had become synonymous with both power and camaraderie, Kojiro Gojo. With his distinctive white hair, always tied in a ponytail, and an aura of strength and charisma, he had left an indelible mark on the school.
Kojiro had made a name for himself as the Gojo family's Kirin, a Special Grade Sorcerer with abilities that were as unique as they were formidable. He was known not only for his mastery of the "Limited" technique, a transformation of the Gojo clan's innate technique Limitless, but also for his kind and laid-back personality.
As the sun's first rays painted the training ground, Kojiro stood at the center of it all. With his nodachi in hand, he began his morning training ritual, moving with a calm yet focused demeanor. His nodachi crackled with electricity, and every precise strike painted arcs of power in the early morning light.
The training ground was his haven, a place where Kojiro took his morning meditation and training, honing his skills with each fluid motion. Under the sun's morning rays, he was wholly absorbed in his training with a clear-mind and dedicated. Each strike was a testament to his unwavering commitment to mastering the technique his brother dubbed "Limited"
As a member of the Gojo family Kojiro inherited a majority of their traits. The classic white hair, aristocratic looks, the ocean of cursed energy and even the clan technique Limitless. At the young age of six Kojiro realized he would never be able to match up to his brother. After suffering the relentless training of the Gojo family elders Kojiro made a binding vow with his own technique. Sacrificing the endless power of the Limitless technique Kojiro instead focused on control instead of overwhelming power. Limiting the maximum output Kojiro instead created what his brother dubbed Limited.
Limited took the force of the Limitless technique and transformed it into weaker but focused electrical energy. This allowed Kojiro to focus his power for maximum control and efficiency.
The training ground bore the marks of his relentless pursuit of power, and the earth beneath him was scorched and marked by the arcs of electricity. Kojiro Gojo, the Gojo Family's Kirin, embraced the legacy of his family, not as a burden but as a source of pride.
As the sun continued its ascent, Kojiro's training session came to a close. With a contented sigh, he sheathed his nodachi on his back and took a moment to appreciate the beauty of the morning.
"Tuna" said a voice from across the field. Turning Kojiro saw his fellow student second year Toge Inumaki a Semi-First grade Sorcerer at Jujutsu High.
"Hey what's up Inumaki did you need help with something?" Kojiro said turning around and casually crossing the scorched training field towards his Kouhai with a smile.
Toge Inumaki the cursed speech user from the Inumaki clan nodded his head in agreement. "Salmon Roe" he spoke using rice ball ingredients to avoid friendly fire with his technique.
"Is it something as a class you, Maki, and Panda need? I heard that Nii-San had something he needed to share with me. Is it related?" Kojiro asked in concern. As although he might love his brother even he admits that his brother is a handful to deal with.
Toge nodded and handed Kojiro a prewritten note. "The exchange event is already here!? But Kinji is suspended and Kiara is definitely not coming if he isn't there!" Kojiro exclaimed in shock and disbelief. "We don't have enough students to compete Toge" Kojiro exclaimed with his purple eyes wide in disbelief while his mind was already running through possible ways to get out of forfeiting to the the Tokyo school's rivals.
"Bonito Flakes," Toge said in disagreement waiting for his senior to reach the natural conclusion knowing that Kojiro knew his brother's "trial-by-fire" methods better than anyone else.
"There is no way the higher-ups would revoke Kinji's suspension so the only other way is- THE FIRST YEARS!" Kojiro exclaimed incredulously.
"Salmon Roe" Toge responded as he and Kojiro left the training ground.
Dusting off his school uniform Kojiro started to wonder what the fuck his brother was smoking this time. After all, as his brother's right hand in the Gojo clan, Kojiro knew of the recent tragedy that befell the young first-year class on their last mission.
The unofficial assassination of Yuji Itadori.
"Nii-san sure got us in a mess this time huh Toge-kun" Kojiro said with an exasperated smile.
"Salmon Roe" Toge responded with a nod of agreement. After all he knew of the Gojo head's antics after dealing with his teachings for a year already.
"How's Maki dealing with our upcoming challenge" Kojiro asked his junior with an amused grin coming to his face thinking of his brash female kouhai hearing the news with the second year's own heavy hitter Yuta Okkotsu being away right now as well.
"Mustard Leaf" Toge says as they head towards the school where Kojiro assumes Toge's classmates are waiting for them.
As the White-haired duo treks across the campus at a leisurely pace, they eventually arrive near the campus entrance.
"Kojiro-senpai" a panda bear greets the Tokyo third-year with a smile as the green-haired glasses-wearing woman next to him leaning against a tree nods a quick greeting herself before she goes back to looking at the entrance.
"Panda-kun how's my favorite teddy bear doing today!" Kojiro greets with a grin causing Toge and Maki to roll their eyes and Panda keeps his smile in good humor.
"I'm doing well Senpai. Me and Maki are waiting for the first years to arrive so we can spring some training on them so we can get them ready for the exchange event" Panda answers from his position sitting by a tree.
"Ah I see Toge just informed me of the situation I wasn't aware Nii-san and Yaga-sensei weren't just going to wait until Yuta-kun came back or the higher-ups ended Kenji's suspension," Kojiro said with a chuckle at his brothers plan to develop his students.
"That blindfolded idiot you call brother better be thankful we are sacrificing our time to train the first years while he's doing Tengan-sama knows what" Maki stated with a frown of annoyance as she hopped into the discussion.
"Well you know Nii-san Maki-chan do know consequences later," Kojiro said with a chuckle earning an eye roll from the sole girl of the group while Toge and Panda's eyes crinkled in amusement.
"Anyways before you ambush the first years Maki-chan you should know that-" "There they are!" Maki cut off Kojiro as two figures appeared entering the campus.
As Maki stormed off to ambush the depressed-looking first years Kojiro let out a sigh of exasperation knowing that Maki was going to stick her foot in her mouth and her mind somehow it was going to be his fault.
"So it's going to be my fault in 3, 2, 1-" Kojiro muttered to himself lowly as the male upper-class men caught up to Maki and heard her berating the first years for being depressed.
"Maki someone did die. Their classmate Yuji Itadori dies on their last mission" Panda explained causing Maki to freeze before she whirled around to Kojiro.
"WHY DIDN'T YOH SAY SOMETHING YOU WHITE HAIR BUFFON! Now I look like a heartless bitch to the first years" she exclaimed glaring accusingly at Kojiro.
"Maki-chan if you waited and didn't cut me off before you ambushed Fushiguro-kun and Kugisaki-kouhai I was about to tell you to cut them some slack because of it" Kojiro explained with an amused grin, his purple eyes twinkling with mirth.
Fuming about "White-haired idiots who never take things seriously" Maki with help from Panda explained to the first years the current situation regarding the exchange event.
"So in conclusion my brother decided that you guys could handle this and gave Maki and the other second years here full permission to do whatever necessary to whip you guys into shape Kojiro said with a grin and a thumps up.
"Kojiro-senpai what are you going to be doing during this" Megumi Fushiguro the dark-haired emo of the first years asked deadpanning at his in-all-but-name foster brother.
"Why I'm going to be doing what all benevolent elders do Megumi-kun" Koniro answered with a grin sending shivers down Megumi and Nobara's backs and the expression. "I'll be drinking tea enjoy my kouhai's torture- I mean training methods!" Kojiro responded keeping the creepy simple on his face. "Speaking of tea I'm going back to the dorms to get some and breakfast. Panda-kun do you need me to grab anything for their torture?" Kojiro asked the cursed puppet as he stuffed his hands in the navy blue uniform of Jujutsu High not even trying to disguise what the first years are about to go through to prepare for the event.
"Nope, I think I remembered everything. Enjoy your breakfast Senpai" Panda said as Kojiro began to walk off with a wave thrown over his shoulder in acknowledgement.
After Kojiro got far enough away Nobara turned to Megumi, "Megumi-kun who was that and did he refer to Gojo-sensei as his brother!?" Nobara asked her classmate incredulously.
"That's sensei's younger brother Kojiro Gojo the Gojo Family's Kirin he is a third year here and like his brother is a special-grade sorcerer. Although Kojiro isn't as strong as sensei he has way more control and some would say flexibility than sensei. Kojiro-senpai unlike sensei doesn't have six eyes so in order to master the Gojo family technique he made a binding vow to alter it sacrificing power for control. As such instead of having to overwhelming force and power of Limitless, he has the electrical force his brother dubbed Limited. Kojiro-senpai may seem laid back for a sorcerer of his caliber but he worked hard earning his strength through hard work and talent and so he like Yuta-senpai is someone I highly respect here… even if he is a little too much like sensei sometimes" Megumi explained to the country girl who listened wide-eyed at the explanation from who she teasingly called the school emo.
"I see I wonder why there was a sensei Jr here. Any idea what his type of-" "he likes strong older women Maki stated flatly cutting the younger girl off.
"Huh," Nobara dumbly responded to Maki.
"He likes older women like Ieri, Mei-Mei, and I even heard Yuki-san" Maki explained with an eye roll at Kojiro's quirk.
"But aren't they all like 10 years older than him!?" Nobara asked in disbelief at someone who Megumi held in disbelief and seemed to be the ideal type of guy for her to have a quirk like that.
"We were shocked to learn it as well last year from Yuta. At the last exchange, even Todo Aoi a grade 1 third-year at Kyoto asked him what his type was. Yuta explained that Aoi learned this introduction from Yuki-dono and when he asked Kojiro his response was "A strong older woman who knows what she wants and has beauty in what she does and how she fights, like Mei-Mei, Ierei, and your teacher Aoi-san" this dumbfound the guy basically just got told to his face that his opponent liked girls like his role model/older sister figure" Maki explained flatly leaving the first year girl dumbfounded.
"Why are all the strong good-looking guys so weird!" she exclaimed after she slightly recovered her ability to process thought.
"Well Maki already snapped up the normal special grade, well maybe not fully but as close you can get in" "GOD DAMNIT PANDA LEAVE ME AND YUTA OUR OF THIS!" Maki screamed flushing an impressive shade of red at her private life being thrown in the mix.
"Well if you're going to expose Kojiro-senpai when he's not here someone needs to help him out a bit" Panda explained with Toge throwing in a Salmon role showing his agreement with his classmate.
"Hmph let's get the first-year training going before Kojiro comes back" Maki redirected grumbling under her breath about being outnumbered.
Panda deciding to be a good friend noticed the redirect and decided to go with it to put a pin in the conservation… at least until Kojiro gets back he thought grinning mentally. "Sure alright then, so the first thing you guys are going to do is some laps around the track. After that we'll finish with some hand to hand into some sparring. By then Kojiro should be back and maybe he will have some ideas to add in".
