Yuta's Decision
: Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 234 left fans reeling with numerous jaw-dropping moments and an exhilarating cliffhanger, making it yet another thrilling installment. Packed with excitement, this week's chapter provided ample material for analysis and discussion.In the previous chapter of JJK, the fight between Gojo and Sukuna escalated into a three versus one scenario. This greatly favors Sukuna, who is already a formidable opponent on his own. Adding to the challenge, Mahoraga and Agito are now in the picture, two powerful beasts capable of overpowering most sorcerers in the JJK world. Gojo finds himself having to confront all three adversaries simultaneously. Complicating matters further, Sukuna inhabits Megumi's body, forcing Gojo to carefully navigate this precarious situation. Chapter 234 of Jujutsu Kaisen showcased Gojo being pushed to his limits, prompting his students to contemplate joining the battle.
Yuta, in particular, expressed a strong desire to join the fight based on his exceptional Cursed Energy. Together with Gojo, they believed they might have a chance at defeating Sukuna. As Sukuna continued to display increasing power, Yuta's decision to join became even more logical. However, there were various obstacles preventing him from doing so. One of the reasons was that several other students, such as Maki, also wished to participate, feeling that it was their duty. Yuta was considered a crucial asset, and losing him early on was not an option.
What added more weight to the situation was Mei Mei's explanation of the differing conditions for victory between Gojo and Sukuna. Gojo simply needed to defeat Sukuna, while Sukuna had more complex requirements even if he emerged victorious against Gojo. It was speculated that Sukuna possessed a hidden trump card, which he would activate if everyone joined the battle. Therefore, it was deemed unwise to provoke him. Furthermore, it was emphasized that this was Gojo's battle, and interfering with it would be disrespectful, as clearly depicted in JJK chapter 234.
Gojo Fights A 3 Vs 1 Battle
In Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 234, the anticipated fight between Gojo and Sukuna took center stage. Fans were eager to witness this intense clash, especially since Gojo was now facing a three-on-one battle. In the previous chapter, Gojo realized that utilizing the Hollow Technique: Purple was his only viable strategy against his opponents. However, employing this technique is far from easy, requiring ample time and preparation. This is precisely where Sukuna proves to be formidable. With two additional bodies under his control, Sukuna launches relentless attacks, ensuring that Gojo is unable to utilize Purple.
Sukuna also came to the conclusion that trying to steal Purple from Gojo would prove fatal for him and unlikely to end in victory. In their previous encounter, Sukuna suffered severe consequences after being struck by the devastating force of 120% Purple, even from a distance of 4 km. Therefore, being in close proximity to Gojo's Purple this time would pose a great risk. As a result, Sukuna takes every possible measure to avoid such a dangerous outcome.
Meanwhile, in chapter 234 of Jujutsu Kaisen, Gojo found himself engaged in a fierce battle against the formidable Shikigami. Both adversaries proved to be quite a challenge for him. Determined to gain the upper hand, Gojo strategized on how best to approach the situation. Recognizing the troublesome healing abilities possessed by the Shikigami, particularly Agito, Gojo conducted several experiments to test various theories. Ultimately, he deduced that his only chance of victory lay in delivering a decisive blow to Agito with a single, well-executed attack.
Gojo Loses His Arm
Chapter 234 of JJK left fans in utter astonishment as Sukuna coerced Mahoraga into displaying unprecedented behaviors. Although fans were familiar with most of this Shikigami's abilities, the ability to fly and execute slash-based attacks were completely unexpected. These extraordinary powers actually belong to Sukuna, but Mahoraga managed to harness them, leaving everyone, including Gojo, dumbfounded. By spinning the wheel, Mahoraga gained access to this newfound ability and launched a devastating slicing attack towards Gojo, severing his right arm clean off above the elbow. The sheer force of this attack was so immense that it effortlessly sliced through the entire building located behind them, further emphasizing its remarkable ferocity.
Gojo's Retaliation
Given the severe weakening of Gojo's healing abilities, it was practically impossible for him to regenerate his entire arm instantly. As a result, he found himself at a serious disadvantage, having to battle against three formidable monsters with only one arm. Unsurprisingly, Gojo endured a significant amount of punishment from his adversaries, and the current situation appears bleak for him. In the latest chapter of JJK, Gojo faced a relentless onslaught from his three foes, ultimately suffering a powerful blow to his face delivered by Agito. However, it is precisely at this moment that Gojo's counterattack finally commenced, injecting an exhilarating twist into this captivating battle that has kept fans on the edge of their seats throughout.
With fans losing hope after Gojo lost his arm to Mahoraga, their spirits were instantly lifted when it was miraculously restored during his powerful counterattack near the end of the chapter. After enduring a devastating blow to his face from Agito, Gojo decided to unleash his true strength, confidently asserting that the beast was no match for him. Surpassing all expectations, Gojo harnessed the Maximum Output Blue power and unleashed a devastating attack that obliterated Agito in a single strike. This assault not only shattered the creature's entire body, but also banished it completely from the battlefield. Thankfully, Sukuna and Mahoraga managed to evade this attack and survive. However, it appears that Gojo is prepared to further enhance his abilities moving forward. Gradually but steadily, his arm shows signs of healing.
In a significant revelation towards the end of JJK chapter 234, the narrator announces that within 41 seconds, Gojo will unleash his formidable Hollow Technique: Purple, causing significant damage to Shinjuku. Despite Sukuna's attempts, he will be unable to prevent Gojo from using Purple. Should Gojo's powerful technique strike Sukuna, it has the potential to turn the tide of the battle in Gojo's favor and potentially lead to his victory. Without a doubt, this decisive fight is drawing to a close, as indicated by the editor's note. Fans eagerly await the outcome between these two immensely powerful opponents.
