This is pissing me off.
Just come out now if you're going to switch places.
What's wrong, brat?
The Innate Domain is sealed, and the Special Grade Cursed Spirit is dead.
What's left is for Itadori to return safely…
Sorry, but he's not coming back.
Don't be so scared.
I'm in a good mood right now, so let's chat.
This must be the price he's paying for using me without any restraint.
He seems to be having some trouble switching back.
But, well…
It is only a matter of time.
So…
I thought about what I could do now.
What are you…
I'm going to take him hostage.
Hostage?
That's right. I can still live without this,
but not the brat.
If he switches with me, he'll die.
And also…
I'm doing this to make doubly sure.
Sukuna's finger.
That Special Grade Cursed Spirit inside must have had it.
Okay, I'm finally free.
You can start to panic, I'm going to kill you.
There's no reason.
Our roles have reversed, compared to that time.
Only the inequality of reality can equally exist.
You don't seem to understand.
That guy…
Itadori will be back.
Even at the cost of his life.
That's how he is.
You're flattering him too much.
He's just a moron who's a little stronger than most people.
He was trembling with the fear of dying earlier…
while talking pretentiously to himself.
I'm sure that
he doesn't have the guts to commit suicide.
His hand has regenerated.
He can use the Reverse Cursed Technique.
Sukuna has completely possessed him.
Even if he can live without a heart, he should be able to receive damage.
I have to restore Itadori's heart before he comes back.
I have to convince him that he won't win with a body that doesn't have a heart.
Can I do that?
I couldn't even move in front of a Special Grade Cursed Spirit.
It's not a matter of whether I can do it or not.
I have to do it!
I finally managed to come out.
Let's make full use of this place!
How interesting.
You're using a Shikigami, so why would you come at me personally?
More!
More.
More!
Put more curse into it…
and come at me.
Great Serpent!
All together now!
See? I told you.
Let's make full use of this place!
He's not even casting sorcery.
His strength and agility are on a totally different level!
Nice technique!
What should I do?
I used Shikigami once to leave the Innate Domain.
White Divine Dog and Great Serpent were destroyed.
On top of that, Nue is at its limit.
It's better to dispel it before it's destroyed.
I see.
So you use shadows as a medium for your Shikigami?
It doesn't matter if he finds out now.
So what?
It's not a common curse technique that uses charms,
so it can be used in a lot of situations.
I don't understand. Back then…
Why did you escape?
It's a waste of your talent.
Forget it.
In any case, I won't heal myself with an attack like that.
He's seen through me.
You're risking your life over such a foolish motive.
This brat doesn't even deserve it.
Then why did you save me?
Only the inequality of reality can equally exist.
If I have the ability to curse someone,
I would rather think about those who are dear to me.
She's indisputably kind.
She deserved to have a happy life more than anyone else.
Despite so, Tsumiki was cursed.
My father, who named me "Megumi" even though he didn't know my gender,
is still living his life brazenly somewhere.
Karma is not something that happens automatically.
Evil people can only be punished under the law.
Jujutsu Sorcerers act as one of the gears in karma.
To ensure more good people can enjoy equality…
I will save people unfairly.
Brilliant.
This is brilliant.
So you're just getting fired up.
I see.
Well…
In that case,
show me what you're made of, Megumi Fushiguro!
Furube, yurayura.
Just to make it clear…
I didn't have a logical reason to save you back then.
Even if it's dangerous, I didn't want to see a good person like you die.
I had my doubts, but I eventually heeded my selfish emotions.
But that's all right.
I'm no hero.
I'm a Jujutsu Sorcerer.
So I've never regretted saving you.
Is that so?
You are really smart, Fushiguro.
You probably think way more than I do.
I think that what you believe in is right,
but I don't think I'm wrong either.
Oh, man.
Sorry, but it's almost time.
You, Kugisaki, and Mr. Gojo…
I guess I don't need to worry about you guys.
Live a long life, you hear me?
Hey, what's going on?
Was it really necessary to lose a valuable finger
just to confirm Sukuna's strength?
Well, we won't get anywhere with a half-hearted test.
We did gain something from that.
I hope you're not making excuses.
Shut up! I can't understand a single word.
I can't understand it, but the words speak directly into my brain.
It's so gross!
CAFE RESTAURANT RISE
Welcome!
Table for one, sir?
Yes, one.
I told them to choose between escape and death
when they encounter an enemy.
I've made sure to tell them not to fight.
That was intentional, right?
What?
What do you mean by that?
They were up against a Special Grade Curse,
and had to rescue five people with unclear status.
There's no way they would get the first-years to do this.
And I was the one who forcibly granted
an indefinite postponement on Yuji's death sentence.
The higher-ups were unhappy,
so they used a Special Grade Curse while I was away…
to get rid of him silently.
Even if the other two died, it would have served to spite me.
That's killing two birds with one stone, isn't it?
No, but…
When I sent them over, I really didn't expect it
to turn into a Special Grade Cursed Spirit.
It's troublesome to find the one behind this.
Let's just…
kill all the higher-ups, shall we?
It's rare to see you get so emotional.
Good work today, Ms. Ieiri!
You really like him.
I'm a nice guy who's always thinking about the students.
Don't bully Ijichi too much.
It's not easy for him to get caught between us and the chief.
-Speak more… -I'm not interested
-Speak more! -in a man's pain and suffering.
Is that so?
So is he the one?
Sukuna's vessel.
I'm free to tear him apart, right?
Make good use of him.
Oh, I will.
Who do you think I am?
"Live long," he says?
How can he say that when he's dead?
Is this your first time experiencing a friend's death?
It's a first for my classmate.
I see.
Yet you look surprisingly calm.
You too.
Of course. I've only known him for two weeks.
I'm not so weak that I'll cry over a man's death.
Darn it.
It's so hot.
You're right. I wonder when we'll get to wear our summer uniforms.
What's going on?
Your face looks even worse than usual, Megumi!
Are you mourning?
Zenin.
-Don't call me by my last name! -Maki!
I'm talking here!
Don't you know why they look so depressed?
What do you mean?
Someone really died yesterday!
It was one of the first-year boys!
Bonito flakes.
Say it earlier!
That would make me a heartless witch, wouldn't it?
But that's who you are!
Tuna mayonnaise.
-You're wrong! I can be considerate, okay? -Who are they?
They are the second-year students.
Be gentle with your juniors.
How is pampering considered being gentle?
Zenin is the best student when it comes to using Cursed Tools.
Salted salmon roe.
This is Inumaki, a Cursed Speech Sorcerer.
His vocabulary is limited to onigiri filling ingredients.
But you're gentler when you're with Yuta.
This is Panda.
We still have one more senior, Okkotsu.
He's the only one I respect, but…
He's currently overseas.
So you're just going to say that's Panda, and nothing else?
My apologies.
Sorry to disturb your mourning.
Please forgive us!
Actually, we hoped that you two will attend
the Kyoto Sister-School Goodwill Event.
Kyoto Sister-School Goodwill Event?
What's that?
It's an exchange with another sorcery school in Kyoto.
But isn't that for second and third-year students?
Those good-for-nothing third-years are suspended from school.
So you guys have to come.
So what's the exchange for? Playing Super Smash Bros?
I won't lose if they're playing the Wii version.
I'll trash them with my Meteor Smash.
Then three of us will play together.
In the goodwill event, the principals of the Tokyo and Kyoto High School
will propose their own methods of dueling.
Each method takes one day, so that's two days in total.
And that's the official consensus.
We have group battles on the first day, and individual battles on the second.
It's always been like this.
Salmon.
Group battles and individual battles?
So Jujutsu Sorcerers are going to fight one another?
Yes. It's a sorcery battle without any rules, except you can't kill.
In order not to get killed, we'll provide intensive training.
Wait, do you guys actually have time for this?
I thought Jujutsu Sorcerers are always understaffed.
That's a good question. The answer is yes, for now.
Human depression often accumulates from late winter to early spring,
and then erupts in early summer, which in turn transforms into curses.
That's when we're the busiest.
We're mostly busy all year long,
but things should be settling down soon.
I see.
So you guys are coming, right?
Your classmate's dead, after all.
-I'll do it! -I'll do it!
I…
I want to be strong, and I'll do anything for it.
But if the training and the games turn out to be meaningless,
I'm leaving immediately.
Me too.
That's the arrogant spirit we need.
Bonito flakes.
CAFE RESTAURANT RISE
That means, your boss…
wants to subvert the position of humans and curses.
Am I right?
Well, you got the gist of it.
But there's something different.
Humans are full of lies.
Beneath the emotions and actions they show,
there's always something hidden in them.
But negative emotions like hate and murder…
They are the irrefutable truth.
We, the curses born from these negative emotions,
are the only real, pure humans!
The fake ones should just disappear.
And yet, you guys are being wiped out right now.
That's why I'm here to ask you…
How can we win against the Jujutsu Sorcerers?
Before the war begins,
you need to fulfill two conditions in order to beat them.
What are the two conditions?
First, the one known as the strongest Jujutsu Sorcerer…
We must ensure that Satoru Gojo is unable to fight.
Secondly,
you have to make Ryomen Sukuna and Yuji Itadori your ally.
Wait. Isn't that Yuji Itadori brat dead?
I wonder…
Who knows?
Don't look up without my permission.
It makes me sick…
Brat.
-Juju Stroll! -Salmon.
It stinks.
It doesn't stink.
It stinks.
It doesn't stink!
Why are you treating me like an animal?
It's because you're a panda.
Mustard.
It smells like a wild animal.
I asked it to take a bath, but it refused.
I don't want to get wet.
But I don't sweat, unlike you guys.
And I use deodorant every day.
So I don't stink.
And that's what happened. Come over and take a sniff.
-Sniff… -Sniff…
It doesn't stink, but it smells like the sun.
-The sun? -The sun?
