All of this of course happened to be transpiring under Lorien's watchful eyes who had just grabbed another bag of ships, teleporting it from one of the shops in Shibuya into his hands.
'It's most likely going to get destroyed by Sukuna soon, so I better eat it before that happens!'
'Saving resources!'
*Crunch*
*Crunch*
Eating away at the inside of the bag, Lorien couldn't help but comment on the taste.
'Well, there are a lot of weird combinations in Japan, however, the taste is good!'
Shaking his head, a smile appeared on Lorien's face as he then turned his attention towards Yuta who was heading in the direction of Aoyama Cemetry.
'He's finally here!'
Seeing the newcomer who haven't appeared in the original timeline, Lorien didn't seem that surprised.
However, this is to be expected, after all, he is the one who sneakily sent information to Yuta to draw him into Shibuya.
'Kenjaku increased the number of cursed spirits and curse users, so I at least have to match him to keep things balanced.'
A wicked smile appearing on his face, Lorien couldn't help but imagine Kenjaku's face when his plan fails.
'Moreover, it seems that Kenjaku hasn't realized yet that Tengen's barrier had collapsed, otherwise, I don't think he will even bother proceeding with this plan.'
'After all, Tengen's barrier is the core of his whole plan, without it, everything he prepared will become useless.'
As the grin on Lorien's face widened, he couldn't help but think about the best moment to send Maki and Yuki in.
'Yuki was killed by Kenjaku in the original timeline, so I should give her a chance for revenge, as for Maki, let's leave it for when Gojo gets sealed, if he does that is!'
It's just what Lorien didn't know is that Kenjaku did indeed notice the disappearance of Tengen's barrier even though he was still inside the veil converting Shibuya, after all, his accomplishments in this field are one of the highest in the world.
It's just that right now, he is hidden in a location that's very close to the battlefield between Gojo and the curses and he's afraid that if he were to make any move he'll immediately be noticed by Gojo.
By then, not only will the plan fail, but his chances of running out of there alive will also be minimal.
Moreover, with the battle already starting, there is no going back now, so it's better to deal with one of the biggest obstacles before going to see what happened with Tengen.
It's just that Lorien was unaware of what was going on inside Kenjaku's brain, not to mention that he was currently thinking about an entirely different subject, not paying much attention to the latter.
'This show is quite interesting, it would be a pity if I were to watch it alone!'
Thinking of this, a wicked smile appeared on Lorien's face as he thought about the Jujutsu Sorcerers who had worked very hard to hide themselves for more than a thousand years.
'Hhaahhaha, ooops?'
'Well, I was going to broadcast the beginning of the new age anyways, so there is no harm in starting things a bit earlier, this way, the population of the world will at least have some time to adapt and understand what's going on.'
Thinking of this, Lorien rubbed his shin as he became more and more sure about his sudden whim.
'Alright then, It's decided!'
'Time to take one from Mei Mei's book, ummmm, without the gambling that is, I don't like it much.'
Not hesitating any longer, Lorien immediately used his power, executing the mechanism he has long prepared with the Dream Trees as the basis.
*Buzz*
In an instant, a wave of power washed over the world as the Dream Trees that were disguised as other objects suddenly bloomed with a mysterious golden brilliance that took everyone's attention.
*Swish*
As the Dream Trees swayed in the wind, golden flowers silently materialized in the void as they then merged together forming numerous large screens which broadcasted the events at Shibuya.
Moreover, things didn't end there as following the appearance of those large screens in all public areas around the world be it rural or urban, everyone's phones and TVs worldwide seemed to glitch as they also started broadcasting the events.
Not to mention those consumer-grade electronics, even the screen in military areas that were displaying different data were also forcefully taken over.
This caused a wave of horror and panic to wash over all these military personnel from different nations as they can no longer access any of their weapon systems.
"Quickly! Find what's going on and fix it!"
"Sir, we tried shutting down the power for some of the system but the broadcast continued as usual even without any energy source, this isn't scientific!"
"..."
Right now, the only things that were spared were the electronics used at hospitals and emergency centers which were intentionally spared by Lorien.
After all, he didn't want to affect those in the middle of surgery or in need of help, even the phones that were forcefully taken over still had their calling function operational just in case.
It's just that while this free live-streaming service is quite impressive as it not only broadcasted everything happening in Shibuya to all corners of the world without issues and also rendered all highly destructive weapons ineffective.
But that wasn't the main consequence of the Dream Trees appearing publicly, as once they materialized, it was as if a veil was suddenly lifted from the world enabling everyone to see everything for what they truly are.
No longer were Cursed Spirits and Cursed Energy hidden, everyone could see them with the naked eye without needing any help or possessing any powers.
It's just that this wasn't something to be happy about as once this happened, a wave of panic washed over everyone causing a number of riots to unfold as people ran away for safety.
"AAAAAAAHHH!!!"
"WHAT'S IS THAT!!!!"
"What in the..."
However, this did them no good as with people acting like this, their fears were instantly transformed into cursed energy, thereby pushing the cursed energy levels in the world to an all-time high.
Frankly, if it weren't for the Nightmare Realm that Lorien established, this could indeed act as the precursor of the Golden Age of sorcerers as Kenjaku wished.
However, sadly for Kenjaku, this is impossible now as once any negative energy was born, it got immediately absorbed by the Nightmare Realm, further strengthening it in the process.
It's just that as people started to run away at the sight of any cursed spirits, Lorien finally acted, not wanting the audience to run away before the movie starts.
[Reality: Calm Down]
*Swish*
In an instant, everyone felt a cold wave of energy wash over their bodies from head to toe, it was as if they drank a cold beverage on the hottest day in summer, causing a wave of relief to wash over them.
No longer were they panicked, and no longer did they wish to run, now, everyone can calmly watch the screens in front of them and watch history get created.
However, this state of absolute calmness didn't last long as Lorien soon withdrew his power not wanting to waste energy.
It's just that this time before the audience could panic once more, a voice suddenly sounded from the screen, magically attracting everyone's attention.
"Hello everyone, how are you doing today!"
"Well, I hope you are doing fine as you'll be witnessing history today!"
"This should be enough to excite you I suppose!"
"Oh, I haven't introduced myself, right? Well, My name is Lorien, your host for today!"
"If you have any questions and are confused by what's going on, please click on the icon at the bottom left of your screen for those watching from their phones or TVs, it includes everything you need to know."
Saying this, Lorien who was currently on the screen holding a microphone that he conjured for some reason finally said, a brilliant smile appearing on his face.
"Alright then, as everyone is on the same page, let's not waste any time as we don't want to miss this fight!"
With that, the screens worldwide switched once more toward the battle between a white-haired man and a bunch of cursed spirits and curse users.
