Plus I think seeing Moka kicking ass and not with her feet for once would be a nice change.

Spoiler for the future:

Unfortunately it doesn't seem like anyone has taken the Belmont from the Headmaster, meaning that, the only possible way for the group to obtain Belmont, is for Mikogami to appear in Fairy Tale's HQ as well...

@Shinso Tsukune

True, the Jigen-tou is a highly advanced "secret" technique, which is precisely the reason, why I don't think that Tsukune had managed to learn it. After all, it's pretty evident that Tsukune has learned a lot of different youjutsu techniques, and considering Akasha's reaction after she learned that Akua has managed to learn the Jigen-tou, it's a difficult technique to learn - after all, so far the only one who was shown of using the Jigen-tou is Ling - Ling, who has mentioned that she was "made" by Tohou Fuhai, which might mean that she had some advantage in learning the Jigen-tou.

Now, do I think it's possible for Tsukune to learn the Jigen-tou in a single month, the answer is yes, if it had been the only technique that Tsukune would be training in, and judging from Tsukune's performance in chapter 43, that hasn't been the case.
