As Sukuna began to execute his strategy, it became apparent that Gojo was not only alert but also skeptical. Sukuna was probing to determine if the situation was genuinely under control, yet it was evident that doubts loomed regarding the stability of the situation.
The mention of “Gojo Satoru” led to a moment of hesitation before he prepared to draw a powerful seal on his forehead, alongside the intense light emanating from his eyes.
Sukuna quickly recognized who was present and focused on Yuji. He then expressed, “I apologize for underestimating you! I had no idea someone could reach such heights, Yuta Okkotsu!”
As Sukuna indicated, Yuta had indeed mastered Kenjaku’s techniques and taken control of Gojo’s powers.
In a flashback moment, Yuta resolved to confront Kenjaku and replicate the techniques derived from the original curse of that sorceress. This decision would enable Yuta to alter the situation. Although Maki opposed this plan, Hakari interjected that she had one condition: she would only employ this strategy when all other sorcerers had been eliminated, leaving no other options available.
Mei Mei elaborated on the advantages and disadvantages of replicating Kenjaku’s techniques and seizing Gojo’s powers:
- If Kenjaku’s technique operates continuously or intermittently, it might not sustain itself indefinitely and could eventually fail.
- If the technique is non-continuous, it may not result in immediate death, but ultimately, collapse is inevitable.
- If the technique requires activation only once, it can utilize the Infinite Void, provided it exceeds five minutes.
Mei mentioned that once the process of altering the powers is complete, Yuta’s original curse technique could be rendered ineffective, and he would continue to thrive in Gojo’s state from that point onward.
This scenario foreshadows Gojo’s potential comeback in Chapter 261 of Jujutsu Kaisen.
