A final battle that never ends
Currently in Jujutsu Kaisen, Yuji Itadori is fighting the plague king Sukuna who has taken over Megumi’s body by making him ingest his fingers. Definitely, the most powerful exorcist of the past seems unstoppable as he managed to defeat all those who faced him. Even Satoru Gojo, who is considered the best exorcist of his time, was unable to beat him and was even killed.
While no one really seems to gain the upper hand over Sukuna who still shows signs of weakening, Yuji ends up exploiting all his power against the King of Scourges. To help him in his fight, he is accompanied by Aoi Todo who makes his comeback even though he was thought to be dead.. With a strange instrument on his arm, his substitution technique is more effective than ever. And yet, it was not his return that shocked everyone.
An unexpected return that shocked everyone!
At the end of chapter 260, Yuji immobilizes Sukuna while the latter prepares to use his territory extension, his ultimate technique. However, to his great surprise, someone else speaks these words and the narrator tells us that it is “the most powerful of ghosts, that of the man he had killed with his own hands”. With this description and this white hair, there is no longer any doubt, it can only be Satoru Gojo who has returned from the dead. However, everyone saw that in chapter 236, Satoru Gojo died by the hand of Sukuna who succeeded in cutting infinity. And even if his body was sheltered, his return in the flesh seems very surprising so many Internet users are not fooled.
For some people, it could be a ghost that Sukuna sees when he is close to defeat, like when Nanami saw Yu Haibara before she died. For others, it would be Kenjaku, the other antagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen, who took possession of the body of the exorcist as he already did with Geto. Even crazier, some imagine that this would be the extension of Yuji’s territory which would bring up the ghosts of people he knew who have since died like Gojo. So many pending theories that will have to wait until next Sunday before being confirmed.
