Chapter 23: A Gojo's Curse

Pikachu walked slowly through the desolate landscape, his paws leaving footprints in the snow that covered the ground, as his mind focused on what was coming next. He had managed to free young Kamo's body from Sukuna's grasp, but the most dangerous threat still remained: the fragment of Sukuna that possessed young Gojo's body. The Gojo Clan, known for their supremacy in Jujutsu, and their Limitless technique, was a force that no one in their right mind would want to face. With Sukuna taking control of a Gojo Clan body, the challenge before Pikachu was immense.

As Pikachu advanced, he felt the cursed pressure increase. It was as if the air itself was trying to crush him, making him retreat. At that moment, Pikachu knew that he was not only going to face Sukuna, but also Kenjaku, who was surely nearby. That mastermind had orchestrated most of the recent events, manipulating clans and curses for his own dark purposes. Pikachu couldn't afford a single mistake.

The landscape changed abruptly as he reached a plain that was once teeming with life. Now, the terrain was devastated, with huge craters and withered trees. In the center of that place, Pikachu saw the figure of young Gojo, or rather, Gojo's body controlled by Sukuna. Cursed tattoos ran across his face, and a dark cursed energy poured from him, like a mist warping the air. Beside him, in the distance, Kenjaku watched silently, a malicious smile curving his lips.

"Well, you've made it this far," Sukuna said through Gojo's body, his voice echoing with a mix of amusement and cruelty. "But you won't get any further."

Kenjaku took a step forward, his presence intensifying the cursed energy of the place. "It's surprising that you've survived this long, Pikachu. But your path ends here. With the power of the Gojo Clan and myself, you will be exterminated."

Pikachu stood on guard, his cheeks crackling with electricity as his small body radiated fierce determination. He wasn't going to back down now. He knew this fight would be the hardest of all, but if he could defeat Sukuna and Kenjaku here, he could tip the balance in the wizards' favor.

Sukuna was the first to move. With a single gesture, he used the Gojo Clan's Limitless technique, creating an invisible barrier around Pikachu. Cursed energy condensed around him, blocking any movement. Pikachu found himself trapped in a space where every attempt to advance was stopped by a barrier. It was as if the very air itself was against him.

"See? This is the true strength of the Gojo Clan," Sukuna said, his grin widening with arrogance. —"Limitless is invincible in my power."

But Pikachu was not intimidated. He knew that in order to break that barrier, he needed to overcome Limitless' power with pure brute force. He focused all his energy into his small paws, and with a roar, he launched a Thunderbolt directly towards the barrier. The explosion of electricity crashed into infinite space, but the attack was absorbed without any visible effect. However, Pikachu did not stop. He continued to attack with everything he had: Thunder, Iron Tail, and even a Cage Lightning. The barrier held firm, but little by little, cracks began to form.

Sukuna frowned, noticing that his control over Limitless was beginning to falter. —"Impressive. But it's still not enough."

It was at that moment that Kenjaku decided to intervene. He raised both hands and, with a quick movement, activated his own Domain Expansion. The atmosphere changed drastically. The landscape distorted, and in the blink of an eye, Pikachu found himself inside a completely different dimension. An empty, dark space filled with ancient symbols and floating curses. The walls of this domain were covered in grotesque faces and hands reaching out from nowhere, as if space itself was alive and ready to devour anything it touched.

"Welcome to my Domain Expansion: Thousand Faces Convergence," Kenjaku said with a venomous smile. "Within this place, you will not be able to escape or attack effectively."

Within the barrier, the cursed pressure was overwhelming. The floating hands tried to catch Pikachu, their sharp claws tearing through the air, while the faces on the walls whispered mind-sapping curses. Pikachu could barely move, feeling his energy dwindle with every second he spent in that space. But still, he was unwilling to give up.

Kenjaku unleashed a series of cursed attacks, each more powerful than the last, using his ability to control multiple cursed techniques at once. Cursed Chains rose from the ground, attempting to immobilize Pikachu, while Cursed Energy Spheres exploded around him, making it increasingly difficult for him to escape. Pikachu dodged as best he could, but he knew he wouldn't be able to stay standing for long if he didn't find a way to break that hold.

It was then that Sukuna, from outside Kenjaku's domain, decided to attack simultaneously. With his control over the Gojo Clan's Limitless, he launched a Void Blast towards the center of the domain, aimed directly at Pikachu. The attack was devastating, a sphere of pure energy that obliterated anything in its path.

Pikachu saw it coming, and knew he couldn't face it directly. With one last burst of energy, he used his maximum speed to escape the domain's clutches. He leapt towards one of the walls of space, channeling all the electricity in his body into a single point. With a cry of effort, he launched his final attack: Cruel Volley. The electric shock was so intense that it resonated throughout Kenjaku's entire domain, cracking it from within.

The distorted space collapsed with an explosion of light, freeing Pikachu just in time to dodge Sukuna's Vacuum Blast. The energy from both attacks collided, creating a shockwave that shook the area. Kenjaku, shocked by the destruction of his domain, staggered back.

"Impossible!" Kenjaku shouted, watching as Pikachu, covered in wounds but still standing, prepared for one last attack.

Sukuna frowned. "You shouldn't have survived. But your resistance ends now."

Before Sukuna could launch another attack, Pikachu focused all of his remaining energy and unleashed a Cursed Thunderbolt aimed not only at Sukuna, but at Kenjaku as well. The electricity shot through the air, so powerful that it lit up the entire landscape. Sukuna tried to fight back, but the force of the attack, combined with the injuries he had already received, overwhelmed him. The Limitless barrier broke, and young Gojo's body was thrown out of Sukuna's control, falling to the ground.

Kenjaku, weakened by the destruction of his domain, had no choice but to retreat. With a bitter smile, he disappeared into the distance, leaving Sukuna down and young Gojo unconscious.

Pikachu, exhausted but victorious, looked at the bodies on the ground. He had won, but he knew the war wasn't over yet. Sukuna still lived, and Kenjaku was still plotting something in the shadows.

As the sun began to rise, Pikachu allowed himself a small respite, knowing the biggest battle was yet to come. But, for now, he had saved another possessed body, and that was enough.
