The Shinjuku Showdown
Gojo, freed, challenges Sukuna in the emptied Shinjuku ward: it is the duel between the two strongest, and Gojo loses it. The sorcerers face Sukuna one after another, Yuta kills Kenjaku in Gojo's body, Nobara returns, and Yuji frees Megumi.
Kashimo, Higuruma and Choso fall; Maki, Todo, Yuta, Hakari, Kusakabe, Ui Ui and Shoko fight to exhaustion. Yuji, who has learned the Shrine and expands his own domain, strikes Sukuna's soul until Megumi finds the strength to come back. Sukuna refuses Yuji's last outstretched hand and fades away.
