First-Year Field Test Event

## Participants

The **First-Year Field Test** is the first event in Jujutsu Kaisen: Ukiyo, which saw the newly-gathered first year at Tokyo Jujutsu High being sent on their first field test for hunting cursed spirits.

## Prologue

Haruto Gojo gathers together his class, meeting everyone and getting them to introduce themselves. Afterwards, he explains the group's objective: to exorcise a set of *three* grade two cursed spirits between the nine of them. Afterward, the group is taken by Haruto to an abandoned building in Sendai City where they are left to eliminate the curses however they see fit.

## Battle

Initially, the class splits off into two groups: Yoshifumi, Batsu and Hayato fighting one curse whilst the remainder tackled the other. This arrangement quickly fell apart throughout the battle that ensued. Not long after, two of the curses the group came to hunt down made themselves known, quickly beginning their offence by rushing down Batsu and Michael respectively, the former using tendrils whilst the latter used a blister-covered tongue.

Batsu and Tsukasa were quick to go on an offence-defence mix, the former going for several quick blows from his gavel whilst the latter kept the curse and its tendrils at range with wind projectiles. Hayato soon joined in with Tsukasa at making Batsu's offence more direct, holding the curse's tendrils away with his own. The curse began to writhe and try to get out of the group's moves by screaming and flailing, only to be met by an enormous hit from Batsu's gavel. This led the curse dazed and seemingly knocked out for the remainder of the fight.

Michael and Sheldon's clash with the other curse went far poorer. Opening with use of shutter doors to stop the curse's tongue approaching, yet coincidentally also popping the blisters from the sudden shock, causing acid to spew out in every direction as Michael advanced. Sheldon summoned the Ten Shadows' Divine Dogs, only for both to be soundly melted away by the acid, along with Michael suffering third-degree burns as he was caught in the blast. This sudden change of pace, with the group losing their self-proclaimed "strongest", caused disorder in the rest, leading to panic. Kiryu prepared to fight the curse one-on-one whilst Tsukasa used wind projectiles to assail both curses and push away the flying acid, Hendo hurled one of Michael's doors like a javelin at the acidic curse and Hayato trapping the curse's head with his tendrils. This all came to be relatively pointless, as the curse was generally unaffected by the thrown door, ignored its own acid being thrown back at it by Yoshifumi and vomited more acid out to melt the tendrils from Hayato. After which, it began to channel its cursed energy, only to release it all out as an enormous eruption of acid directed at Kiryu.

To try and save the situation, Yoshifumi put together his own strongest technique, creating an enormous twister in the belief he could create a vortex to hold the curses and acid in one place. Instead, due to creating a twister and not a vortex, the opposite happened, with the curse's acid becoming a shower that flooded the entire room, hitting everyone and threatening the entire class' livelihood. The others did what they could to avoid being hit by the acid, with Hondo using his clothes and weapons to block it, Sheldon fleeing into a shadow, Batsu making his gavel enormous as a shield, with the remainder flailing wildly in hopes of avoiding the attacks or, in Michael's case, *just being hit by more acid*.

Luckily to their reprise, the situation quickly ended thereafter as the sudden and loud arrival of Kogono Seifuku crashing through the ceiling with her cursed spirit Serpentine saw the elimination of both the acid and poisonous curses, with Seifuku quickly taking to assimilating both into her arsenal as "payment". Haruto Gojo returns not long after, being quick to heal the class but soon after scolding them for their terrible performance, demoting everyone present to the lowest grade: grade four. Still clearly angry, Haruto dismisses everyone before departing with Seifuku to discuss their deal, all while the class take the time to recover, talk amongst themselves, and eventually return to the school for rest.

## Aftermath

The entire class is critically injured but soon healed by Haruto, with them being designated as grade four despite previously higher preset grades. Seifuku assimilates both the Acid and Poison Curses into her arsenal, and soon thereafter signs her Binding Vow with Haruto into effect. The students return to the school for resting and recovery in spite of the battle and the wounding of their pride from it. The class work to rectify their mistakes going forward, ensuring proper teamwork and real assertion of their skills are present thereafter.
