Right now You and Maki were in The Culling Games which is a game that functions as a lethal battle royal where players kill one another with jujutsu. Players must adhere to the strict rules of the game and fight across ten barrier colonies that form a line down Japan. In the Sakurajima Colony you and Maki were collecting points in order to save Megumi's sister. And seeking information on a Culling games participant Angel. She is a sorcerer from a thousand years ago with the ability to extinguish cursed techniques. Her cursed technique would be able to free Gojo from the Prison Realm, which is in Tengen's possession. But you sensed a odd presence of a cursed spirit The cursed spirit spots you and Maki and repeats "ma!" over and over. Suddenly, it rushes down towards Maki and Noritoshi at high speed, breaking the sound barrier and breaking buildings apart as it approaches. In an instant, the curse zooms right past Noritoshi and uses all its momentum to ram into Maki with incredible force. She crashes into the cliffside and is pinned down by the long caterpillar-like curse.

Maki tries to punch it off of her but the curse disappears in an instant. It reappears as quickly as it disappears and hits Maki from the side. Maki acknowledges that her opponent is fast but can sense there is more to it. An arm appears from the cursed spirit's body and throws a speeding punch that Maki avoids. The curse swing's the back end of its worm-like body to pin Maki back against the mountainside. While it has Maki immobilized, the curse clarifies that "ma!" was short for Maki and reveals its identity as none other than Naoya Zenin, who became a vengeful curse after death and he hated Maki for defeating him and hated she has no cursed energy but was blessed with super human strength and perception he was about to kill Maki but you interfered. Naoya Zenin looked at you with rage

"Stop interfering you filthy maggot!!!" Naoya shouts in anger determined to rip Maki to shreds
