The sorcerers, especially Yuji and Yuta, have made significant sacrifices in the battle to help Megumi, but their efforts have not yielded the desired results. Every attempt has resulted in dire consequences, with characters facing death or continued suffering.
Yuta activates Jacob’s Ladder to avoid further damaging Megumi’s spirit, and he also takes a hit to protect his own inner core. On the other hand, Yuji weakens Sukuna’s duality against Megumi’s spirit by using his own cursed energy, but after this, he stubbornly refuses to accept help from his allies at the last moment.
Although Yuta faces severe injuries, and Yuji also suffers significant damage, their primary concern remains Megumi’s safety, with Jacob’s Ladder being their last resort. However, Yuta cannot use Jacob’s Ladder freely as he is currently occupying Gojo’s body. In Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263, Yuta reaches the time limit and becomes trapped within Gojo’s body. It is also unclear if he can regain control of his own body or not.
When Yuji, Todo, and Yuta unite against Sukuna, Todo utilizes Boogie Woogie to lift Angel right above Sukuna’s head. In a brief encounter, this chapter reveals a strategic exchange between Yuta and Angel. Yuta apologizes for having to rely on his own cursed technique.
He also strongly requests that Angel utilize Jacob’s Ladder—a technique that can potentially break any curse, including Sukuna’s, as it is a powerful tactic designed specifically to divide Megumi’s cursed spirit. Yuta emphasizes that the strength of his copying technique can indeed be twice as powerful when used simultaneously.
