"It seems that I have underestimated your talent and strength before. I originally thought that now that I have recovered the strength of two fingers, I could still pin you to the ground and rub you with my body strength alone. But I didn't expect that in such a short time, your strength has improved a lot. In addition to martial arts, your swordsmanship level is also so high." That’s right, compared to the previous battle at Sugisawa High School, Ryomen Sukuna could clearly feel that Seiya’s strength had grown a lot compared to before. Although Seiya's physical ability and martial arts were strong before, his way of using cursed energy was still quite crude. But this happened only a few days ago, and even after Seiya entered the Jujutsu High School, Gojo Satoru only taught Seiya some simple ways to use cursed power, and yet Seiya has become so much stronger. Ryomen Sukuna had already anticipated that Seiya would come to find him. Even if Seiya didn't come, he would have gone to deal with him. What Ryoumen Sukuna didn't expect was that Seiya's growth rate and talent were so strong. Originally, he thought that he could press Seiya to the ground and rub him with the strength of two fingers alone, but now it seems that the result is obviously beyond his expectations. It is impossible to use the ritual. As mentioned before, he, Ryoumen Sukuna, is a sorcerer who cares about his reputation.
So at this moment, after expressing his admiration for Seiya's strength, he quickly and slowly took out a reddish-brown finger with sharp claws. "Your talent and growth rate have indeed exceeded my expectations, but I wonder if you can still be as calm as you were just now if I swallow this third finger?" When Seiya saw Ryoumen Sukuna take out the third finger, his face suddenly darkened. As expected, the special-grade cursed spirit from before came to kill Yuji and the others, and died so quickly. He was originally rushing here as fast as he could, but he was blocked by a lot of low-level cursed spirits on the way. Although it was easy for Seiya to clear out those low-level cursed spirits, due to their large numbers, he still wasted a lot of time. Just now when Seiya was fighting Ryomen Sukuna, he was praying in his heart that the special-grade cursed spirit here had not been killed, or that Ryomen Sukuna was now in a state of three fingers. But now when he saw Ryoumen Sukuna taking out the third finger with a playful look on his face, Seiya instantly understood. The special-grade cursed spirit here has been killed by Ryomen Sukuna, and the finger inside its body has long been in Ryomen Sukuna's hand, but the other party just hasn't swallowed it yet. As for why Ryoumen Sukuna didn't swallow the finger the first time he got it, there is indeed a reason. Although Ryomen Sukuna has temporarily controlled Yuji's body, he and Sukuna have become in a relationship where they share the same fate. As soon as Yuji dies, the cursed power in the two fingers in his body will disappear as well. Even though Yuji has his heart dug out by himself, he is still holding on to his last breath because of his own strength. His original plan was to dig out Itadori's heart first so that he would not come out to disrupt his battle. After killing Seiya and turning evil, he would use the reversal technique to repair Itadori's heart. To be honest, apart from the fact that Yuji can always suppress his consciousness, Ryomen Sukuna is actually quite satisfied with Yuji's body. After all, becoming the vessel of Ryomen Sukuna is not something that any mortal body can do. What's more, Itadori had already eaten two of his own fingers. If he really died, although he, Ryomen Sukuna, would not die completely, he would definitely lose some of his strength. Leaving the last finger behind is the last insurance that Ryoumen Sukuna leaves for himself. If Yuji died after the battle, or if Yuji's spirit did not completely collapse after killing Seiya and he regained control of his body, then Ryomen Sukuna naturally could not sit idly by and wait for death.
So he originally intended to have another person swallow the third finger in case of an unexpected situation. This person could be Megumi Fushiguro, Nobara Kugisaki, or even the weak supervisor Ijichi out there. Of course, the best choice is naturally Fushiguro Megumi, because Ryoumen Sukuna has just discovered that Fushiguro Megumi's potential is not much weaker than Yuji, and his physical strength is also enough to become his container. In fact, the person who is more suitable than Fushiguro Megumi is Seiya, but Ryoumen Sukuna didn't give it much thought. One reason is that Seiya had offended and mocked Ryoumen Sukuna before, so he had to die. The second reason is that Seiya is too evil, and looking at his will and mental strength, Ryomen Sukuna feels that it may not be possible to control Seiya's body with just the power of one finger. However, the original plan was good, but now the plan cannot keep up with the changes. If two fingers cannot take down Seiya, then the plan to cause Yuji to have a mental breakdown and turn evil is naturally out of the question. “Gurgle——————!” With a swallowing sound, Ryomen Sukuna swallowed the third Sukuna finger. The cursed energy on his body began to grow stronger again and burst out. As a violent storm of cursed energy erupted from his body, the ground beneath his feet began to develop spider-web-like cracks because it could not withstand the impact. “Boom——!” In just a moment, Ryoumen Sukuna, whose whole body was filled with cursed power, had already arrived in front of Seiya and punched Seiya in the abdomen. Although Seiya reacted, he had no time to dodge, and in the next second, he was sent out by a strong punch along with the shattering ground around him. After just one punch, Seiya flew backwards and spit out a mouthful of blood. He could clearly feel that the punch had already damaged his internal organs. Clearly he had only swallowed one extra finger, but now Ryomen Sukuna's strength was a world of difference compared to just now. In order to mitigate the impact on himself, Seiya had no choice but to insert the long sword in his hand into the ground. Then, as the long sword plowed a deep scar on the ground and sparks flew along the way, his body, which had been retreating continuously, finally stopped its backward trend. "Shikigami Summoning: Azure Dragon - Tail Fire Tiger!" Seiya, who had stopped himself with a cursed sword, did not act rashly when he saw the two Sukuna chasing him. Instead, he chose to summon a shikigami. There is no way. If he continues to engage in hand-to-hand combat, he will really die! The current Ryoumen Sukuna is much stronger than before. Even relying on his physical ability alone, he is enough to crush most special-grade cursed spirits. With his current abilities, the possibility of defeating the opponent is too low. Now he can only find ways to delay time and try to save his life before Gojo Satoru arrives.
