(This chapter is about gojo vs sukuna fight)
Both figures collided in mid-air.
The impact cracked the air like thunder.
Sukuna moved first. Domain Amplification wrapped around his body like an invisible coat, allowing him to bypass Gojo's Infinity. His fist shot forward toward Gojo's head.
Gojo tilted his head just enough for the punch to brush past his cheek. At the same time, he drove his own fist into Sukuna's chest.
Sukuna raised his arm to block, but the force still pushed him back several meters through the air.
"Still strong...," Sukuna said, flexing his arm slightly.
Gojo smirked."And you are even uglier than before. Blue hair doesn't fit you."
Sukuna grinned.
The moment he stabilized himself, Sukuna activated his technique.
Gojo's Six Eyes screamed danger.
He twisted sideways instantly—
A slash carved through the space where his neck had been.
Gojo's eyes narrowed.
The slash had passed through Infinity.
"…Interesting," Gojo murmured.
His Six Eyes analyzed the phenomenon instantly.
"That must be the vessel's technique."
Sukuna chuckled.
"You catch on quickly.."
Gojo didn't answer. He simply launched himself forward again.
The two exchanged blows at blinding speed.
Punches cracked the air. Their movements shattered nearby windows and warped the atmosphere around them as small shockwaves destroyed the street they were on.
Suddenly—
Sukuna's fist appeared directly in front of Gojo's face, bypassing the space between them.
Gojo's eyes widened a fraction too late.
The punch landed.
The impact sent Gojo flying across the skyline like a missile. Buildings trembled as the shockwave rolled through the district.
Gojo flipped mid-air and stabilized himself.
He wiped a thin line of blood from the corner of his lip.
"…So that's how it works."
Sukuna watched him calmly.
The vessel's technique allowed Sukuna to assign special properties or simply rules to his cursed energy. Or anything that was made of his cursed energy. In this case, he had forced the attack to manifest directly on Gojo's position, ignoring the distance Infinity normally controlled.
Gojo chuckled.
"Well… that's annoying."
He vanished.
In the next instant, he appeared behind Sukuna and began another barrage of punches.
Sukuna blocked and countered, but each time they traded blows, another strange punch would suddenly materialize in front of Gojo's face.
Even with the Six Eyes predicting the cursed energy flow, the effect was difficult to avoid completely.
Gojo suddenly jumped back.
Sukuna made a hand sign.
A slash instantly carved across Gojo's chest.
The cut was shallow.
But it bypassed Infinity perfectly.
Gojo glanced down at the wound.
"Troublesome…" he muttered.
Then he grinned.
"But it's nothing for somebody like me."
He raised a hand.
"Maximum Output: Blue."
A massive sphere of condensed gravitational force formed beside him, distorting the air around it.
Gojo hurled the massive Blue toward Sukuna.
The sphere dragged chunks of the surrounding city with it as it flew.
Sukuna dodged sideways smoothly—but instead of counterattacking, he began making a hand sign.
Then he started chanting.
"Flow of the river."
Gojo's eyes sharpened.
"Mountain wind."
Gojo instantly teleported in front of Sukuna to interrupt him.
But Sukuna blocked the strike and continued chanting without hesitation.
"Return."
The moment the chant completed—
A violent slash tore across Gojo's body.
This time, the attack carried enough force to throw him backwards through the air, leaving a long cut across his torso.
The cut itself was not fatal, so Gojo healed quickly.
Gojo stabilized himself again and immediately rushed forward.
His fist slammed into Sukuna's face as Gojo had used blue to accelerate himself.
Sukuna flew backwards before landing roughly—but Gojo didn't let him recover.
Using Blue, Gojo teleported behind him instantly.
His fist rocketed toward Sukuna's head.
Sukuna crouched suddenly, twisting around with unnatural speed.
Another hand sign.
Another slash.
Gojo's shoulder split open as the invisible cut manifested on his body.
"…Every time he forms a sign, the slash appears directly on me," Gojo muttered, rapidly healing with Reverse Cursed Technique.
Then he smiled.
"Alright then."
Another massive Maximum Blue formed.
Sukuna prepared to dodge—
But what Gojo did next made even Sukuna's eyes narrow.
Gojo crossed his fingers.
He was preparing to expand his domain quickly.
Ikuyo's voice echoed in Gojo's mind.
"Sukuna has an open barrier domain. He can attack your barrier from outside. But his domain requires a more complex hand sign, as his sign is two-handed. If your domain activates first—you win."
Gojo grinned.
"Let's test that theory."
"Domain Expansion."
Sukuna immediately recognized the danger.
He forced his own domain sign as quickly as possible.
But in doing so, he had to stop moving—
And the Maximum Blue Gojo had already launched before, struck him head-on.
The explosion swallowed Sukuna in a vortex of gravitational destruction.
At the same moment
Both domains activated.
"Domain Expansion: Unlimited Void."
"Domain Expansion: Malevolent Shrine."
The two domains erupted simultaneously.
Gojo's barrier appeared—but its structure had been flipped, making the outer shell the inner shell, while the inner shell was the outer shell.
Not only that, but Gojo also had shrunk his domain barrier to an extremely small area, making the barrier even denser and stronger.
Exactly as Ikuyo had advised.
Inside the domain—
Gojo appeared directly in front of Sukuna.
Since Sukuna was currently using his technique to attack the domain barrier from the outside, he couldn't use the vessel technique at the same time.
And Gojo took full advantage.
His fists slammed into Sukuna's body one after another.
Each punch was infused with Blue, multiplying the force.
Sukuna coughed blood as he was driven backward.
For the first time in the fight, Sukuna was losing the hand-to-hand exchange badly.
Gojo's smile widened.
"Thought you wanted to kill me?"
He drove another punch into Sukuna's stomach.
"Come on."
Another punch.
"Don't tell me—"
A kick sent Sukuna skidding through the domain.
"—That's all the King of Curses has?"
Gojo said with a crazy smile.
Sukuna wiped blood from his mouth.
"…Arrogant... I will see that smile when I kill you."
Gojo raised a finger.
"Red."
A massive blast shot toward Sukuna.
Sukuna raised his guard—
But the blast missed him completely.
He frowned.
"…He missed?"
Then—
The Red sphere curved behind him.
It struck Sukuna from the back and launched him straight toward Gojo.
Gojo was already waiting.
His fist connected mid-air.
"BLACK FLASH."
Time itself seemed to distort.
The impact detonated like a meteor strike.
Sukuna's eyes rolled back for a moment as the strike itself nearly knocked him unconscious—but through sheer will, he forced himself to remain standing.
Sukuna's domain almost collapsed due to damage, but Sukuna forced the domain to survive.
Gojo didn't give him a moment to breathe.
Six Maximum Blues appeared simultaneously around him.
"Let's see how you dodge this."
He launched them all at once.
The spheres tore through the domain space like black holes.
Sukuna narrowly evaded them, but realization dawned on him.
I can't destroy the barrier.
Gojo had made the outer shell too strong.
Sukuna immediately stopped attacking the barrier and switched strategies.
If he stayed like this—
He would lose inside Gojo's domain.
So Sukuna activated the vessel's technique again.
The ability was terrifying in the right hands.
It allowed him to assign new rules to his cursed energy.
He created a slash—
Then immediately applied a rule to it with his second technique.
"Manifest directly on the target."
But to strengthen the effect, he needed hand signs or chants.
Sukuna made a hand sign.
The slash appeared on Gojo's body.
Gojo felt the attack but didn't bother dodging.
The blade carved across his arm.
Blood sprayed.
But Gojo only laughed.
"This much damage for all that effort?"
His wound healed instantly.
Gojo reappeared in front of Sukuna again.
This time, he grabbed Sukuna's arm.
Sukuna tried to activate Cleave—but he couldn't switch techniques fast enough to bypass Infinity, so Cleave was useless.
Gojo took advantage of the delay.
His fists slammed into Sukuna's face again and again.
Blue amplified punches every single strike.
Sukuna struggled to escape, but Gojo trapped him within Infinity's spatial lock.
Finally, Sukuna activated the vessel technique again—
And teleported himself away.
He landed several meters away.
For the third time in the fight—
Sukuna looked badly damaged.
Gojo rolled his shoulders.
"You're weaker than me," he said casually.
"Without that trick technique, you can't hurt me properly."
Sukuna wiped blood from his mouth again.
But instead of looking frustrated or angered, he started laughing.
Meanwhile, Gojo stood tall inside Unlimited Void.
Still empowered by the Black Flash.
The battle was far from over.
However, odds were on Gojo's side.
