Sukuna's Time Runs Out: Explosive Revelations in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 239!

Chapter 239 of Jujutsu Kaisen continues the excitement of the series with the epic Sukuna battle. Fans are particularly thrilled to see Yuji Itadori taking on this challenge, as they feel he has yet to reach his full potential as the main character. This is a significant moment for him, especially since he shares a long history with the antagonist.

However, readers are eager to find out what Yuji and Higuruma's plan is in this situation. Despite the fact that powerful sorcerers like Gojo and Kashimo were unable to defeat Sukuna, it seems unlikely that these two have what it takes. Nonetheless, there is a theory that suggests otherwise.

Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 239 and Higuruma and Yuji's plan against Sukuna

With Satoru Gojo falling to Ryomen Sukuna's might, fans eagerly anticipate Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 239 for a deeper understanding of the antagonist's capabilities and the exploration of our beloved protagonist Yuji Itadori. Yuji, accompanied by the valiant lawyer Higuruma, triumphed over the second Kashimo, only to face a formidable challenge from the King of Curses.

Given the current knowledge of both characters within the fandom, it appears unlikely that they possess the capabilities necessary to overcome Sukuna. However, it is worth considering that there was a month-long gap between Gojo's release and his confrontation with Sukuna, suggesting that other sorcerers may have devised backup plans in case Satoru was defeated.

Higuruma and Yuji have developed a certain bond, and Higuruma's Domain Expansion, which centers around judging people's crimes, could potentially prove useful in this battle. Considering the countless heinous crimes committed by Sukuna, Higuruma might possess the abilities to at least impede Sukuna's progress, providing Yuji with an opportunity to utilize his impressive physical strength and inflict some damage.

The angle of Yuji's Cursed Technique

The final panel of the last chapter generated immense anticipation for Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 239, as it showcased Yuji's right hand bearing a striking resemblance to Sukuna's Cleave claw. This revelation has ignited a flurry of speculation within the fandom, with theories swirling about Yuji's potential mastery of his Cursed Technique or possessing some of Sukuna's abilities. Naturally, this has only heightened the excitement surrounding the series.

In a previous instance, Gojo had mentioned that Yuji's body had the potential to adapt to Sukuna's Cursed Technique, enabling him to wield it at his own discretion. It seems likely that Gojo had relied on this possibility during the month leading up to Yuji's release and subsequent confrontation with the King of Curses. With the impromptu claw gesture and Higuruma's support, it appears that Yuji may have devised a strategic plan to confront Sukuna.

Final thoughts

Given the distinctive and highly specialized nature of Higuruma's Domain Expansion, utilizing this technique could prove to be a game-changer in the battle against Sukuna. Overpowering him directly appears to be an insurmountable challenge, making it imperative to find an alternative approach. By placing Sukuna in a situation where he is unable to fully utilize his formidable abilities, we could level the playing field and enhance the chances of success against him. Moreover, this strategic move would also create a more balanced encounter between him and Yuji, who excels in close-quarter combat.
