meanwhile chōsō was experiencing an existential crisis, himari had witnessed another dark sphere, though this time, it was starting to crack from the inside.

a sudden burst of shards had plundered into the air, as everyone watched megumi's incomplete domain (chimera shadow garden) break through dagon's — another death painting womb that himari had completely forgotten about.

     "OH SHEEEEEESH!! SMILE FOR US, MEGUMI!!"

     megumi suddenly flinched, as he snapped his head over towards himari, to which tōji had furrowed his brows at the boy's carelessness.

the older fushiguro immediately used playful cloud to stab through dagon's tough exterior, terminating the demon permanently.

"never keep your eyes off your opponent, even if you're being distracted by an idiot", tōji instructed, to which himari had offendedly gasped.

      "TŌJI, I'M HURT!", himari huffed, to which the green-eyed male had cracked a lopsided smile, causing megumi to raise a brow in suspicion.

     "huh? I sure hope we didn't miss the show. did she die yet?", a teasing voice had suddenly interrupted.

himari squinted her eyes, as she saw gojō standing beside yūta, who was alongside nanami, yoshino, and miguel.

     "you cryin' yet?", the white-haired daimyo mocked.

"MIGUEL?! THAT ACTUALLY YOU, SIR?!", himari shouted, nearly experiencing a heart attack, as now sukuna had a chance of being saved; totally ignoring gojō.

     the slim, dark-skinned male had twitched, noticing that a peculiar and obnoxious red-haired male—

     'wait no. a woman? they're built like a female...but their appearance is...kind of scraggly?'

     "MR. MIGUEL! I NEED TO BORROW THE BLACK ROPE FROM YOU!!", himari huffed, running over towards the group, as the man who was covered in accessories, had frowned.

     "absolutely not! and who even are you?"

     "nakajima himari", the tired woman quickly answered.

"so you're gojō-sensei's future wife?", okkotsu yūta — a student who's been training abroad with miguel — had asked.

"uhM...exCuSe ME?!"

"oh, nice to meet you! I'm okkotsu—"

"yūta. yes, yes I know. I love you because you're also baby like yūji, but now's not the time. I need the black rope to release ryō", himari interrupted, to which okkotsu had glanced over at gojō, who just smiled.

"see? I told you she's great", the white-haired man boasted.

"ryō? who's ryō?", miguel inquired.

"uhh...my friend who's trapped in the prison realm", himari vaguely answered.

"he's being trapped by that man! well...they're using uraume's body right now, but you get the gist", himari pointed.

"no, no I don't get the gist! I don't even know why gojō asked for me to be here!", miguel stated, clicking his tongue in annoyance.

     indeed, gojō satoru had asked months in advance for okkotsu and miguel to come overseas, as okkotsu had officially finished his training anyways.

     hence why the daimyo was late, because he was retrieving those two alongside nanami and yoshino, since himari specifically told him to protect those two.

"ugh, anyways, yūta...if you could go steal that cube from that monk for me, it'd be greatly appreciated. I'll treat you to some ice cream", himari smiled, causing utter skepticism to the teenager, as he was yeeted towards uraume.

pseudo-uraume then attempted to block okkotsu with icefall — a technique that allowed the androgynous monk to generate a large amount of spiked ice that can be controlled to float telepathically through the air like ice shards.

     though okkotsu's speed was hella impressive, like hella impressive.

     "himari!! we'll get the cube and release sukuna. do what you need to do!", getō assured, as tōji had traded the playful cloud for the inverted spear of heaven.

himari quickly nodded, as gojō, getō, and tōji headed towards uraume, helping okkotsu, meanwhile miguel and nanami had simply observed.

the auburn-haired woman then glanced over at the students.

a breath of relief had escaped her lips, as she watched chōsō cradle itadori's body, seemingly to have accepted that he was his brother.

that had caused esō and kechizu to stop fighting against the others as well, as they followed whatever their big brother did.

all the weaker demons seemed to be gone, as piles of ashes had littered across the battlefield alongside the samurais that have been slayed.

however, the other daimyos were now attacking one another for political power.

     it was obvious that the winner would be the next ruler. and without oda nobunaga here, himari had a slim chance of winning.

     hence, she decided to just wait it out; wait until they all tire each other out, before joining in on the fun.
