• Suguru Geto asked his old friends whether he had been wrong, and they shared their thoughts about his choices and their past.

After Suguru Geto’s death, Gojo ordered Shoko to examine his body and discovered that it was an empty shell, proving Kenjaku had taken it. Gojo and Akesato confronted Tengen, furious that Tengen had apparently known about Kenjaku’s scheme and kept silent.

• Akesato and Gojo grew furious that Tengen had concealed what he knew about Kenjaku’s threat.

Akesato tried to force Tengen to explain what he knew about Suguru Geto, Riko Amanai, and Kenjaku. Tengen agreed to talk, but first asked Akesato and Satoru Gojo to restrain Tsumiki Kuonji, whom he suspected of being connected to Kenjaku.

• Akesato summoned Darkrai and prepared to attack Tengen with Dark Pulse until Tengen spoke.
• Tengen said he did not know where Suguru Geto's vital organs were and explained that Kenjaku could block his perception with Barrier Techniques.

• Tengen asked Akesato and Satoru Gojo to restrain Tsumiki Kuonji at the training grounds, where she was reaching toward Maki.

Tsumiki Kuonji explained why she had come to Tokyo and revealed that she had heard an unfamiliar voice near Megumi during the Shinjuku battle. Megumi identified the scarred woman who attacked him as Kenjaku, and Tengen granted Satoru Gojo and Akesato permission to enter the Tombs of the Star Corridor.

• Masamichi Yaga led Akesato, Satoru Gojo, and Tsumiki Kuonji through the Tombs of the Star Corridor, where they paused at the bloodstain left by Suguru Geto and Riko Amanai.

• Tsumiki Kuonji explained that mystical powers around the world shared a common Original Text.

Akesato asked Tsumiki Kuonji and Tengen about the mysterious Original Text, which Tengen said could take many forms and had given him his Immortality Cursed Technique. Their discussion strengthened Akesato’s suspicion that the Original Text was tied to Pokémon, leaving him convinced that the Arceus Origin Theory had been established.

• Akesato admitted his lack of scholarly knowledge and asked Tsumiki Kuonji to teach him about Jujutsu’s origins.
• Tsumiki Kuonji explained that magic, divine arts, and witchcraft shared an origin with Jujutsu, and warned that discussing the subject too openly could attract powerful religious groups.

Akesato, Tsumiki Kuonji, Satoru Gojo, and Tengen discussed Original Texts and learned that the Six Eyes and Star Plasma Vessel were linked to Tengen’s Immortality Cursed Technique. Tengen revealed that the assimilation ten years ago failed because of an accident tied to cursed energy, leading Satoru and Tsumiki to think of Toji Fushiguro.

• Tsumiki Kuonji asked whether an Original Text could be reproduced, and Tengen explained that its gifts were unique and could not be copied.
• Tengen said that the Six Eyes, Star Plasma Vessel, and Immortality Cursed Technique formed a chain of causality that protected his assimilation.

• Tengen confirmed that the assimilation ten years ago failed, leaving him no longer fully human.
• Tengen explained that the chain could only be broken by someone who escaped cursed energy’s constraints, and Satoru Gojo and Tsumiki Kuonji thought of Toji Fushiguro.

Satoru Gojo and the others questioned Tengen about Kenjaku’s plan to assimilate Tengen with all humanity, comparing it to the Human Instrumentality Project. Tsumiki Kuonji suggested Kenjaku pursued the unknown like she did, while the group still did not know his true motives.

• Satoru Gojo wondered whether Toji Fushiguro’s destruction of an ancient karmic cycle had freed him from fate and explained his own past sense of liberation.
• Tengen explained that his evolution would let him assimilate with all humanity, potentially merging everyone’s consciousness with his own.
• Akesato and Satoru Gojo reasoned that Kenjaku wanted to use Cursed Spirit Manipulation to absorb and control Tengen.

• Tsumiki Kuonji said she understood Kenjaku’s pursuit of the unknown and believed they were alike at their core.

• Masamichi Yaga suggested Akesato might have another motive, and Tsumiki Kuonji jokingly implied he and Satoru Gojo were involved.
• Akesato kicked Satoru Gojo away after Gojo played along with the insinuation.

Akesato explained how his goals had shifted from escaping Shikoku to building a system that could support and spread spirits, then asked to take possession of the Cursed Wombs. Tengen revealed that Kenjaku had been an old acquaintance who knew about the Original Text, while the others dismissed Akesato’s claim that he came from another world, leaving Satoru Gojo feeling excluded from their secrets.

• Akesato explained that he had sought Gojo’s support to leave Shikoku, then pursued the study and welfare of spirits and began building influence to help them spread.
• Tsumiki Kuonji teased Akesato about treating spirits like wives, and Yaga mentioned that humans had given birth to Cursed Spirit children.

Satoru Gojo, Tsumiki Kuonji, Masamichi Yaga, and Akesato discussed their separate goals and agreed to pursue seats on the High Council while protecting Suguru Geto’s followers from Kenjaku’s influence. Satoru Gojo and Akesato left for Kyoto to intervene before the followers there were executed, and Akesato planned to use Cursed Wombs on suitable vessels.

• Tsumiki Kuonji assured Satoru Gojo that she did not intend to eliminate Jujutsu Sorcerers, and Masamichi Yaga and Akesato urged Gojo to pursue his own goals.

• Satoru Gojo decided to go to Kyoto, fearing that Geto’s followers there might be executed before they arrived.
• Akesato offered to transport Gojo with his spirits and took the Cursed Wombs, planning to use dying people or unforgivable criminals as vessels.

Akesato reached Kyoto with Gojo and found Porygon-Z relaxing with the Kyoto students instead of focusing on its assignment. As the group asked what had happened, they explained that Kinji Fukamachi had attacked Kyoto sorcerers after criticizing their small numbers, further weakening their defenses.

• Gojo and Akesato reached Kyoto rapidly using Gojo's gravity-negating technique and Pokémon-powered flight, then split up.
• Gojo crashed into the rebuilt Jujutsu Alliance headquarters while Akesato followed his Pokémon connection to Porygon-Z.

• Akesato asked what had happened, and Mai and the others blamed Kinji Fukamachi for attacking Kyoto sorcerers after criticizing their lack of reinforcements.
• Kinji had beaten several Kyoto sorcerers before Atsuya Kusakabe stopped him, further reducing Kyoto's already limited fighting force.

As Kyoto’s Night Parade of a Hundred Demons continued, Porygon rescued Mai Zenin, Kasumi Miwa, and Momo Nishimiya from Cursed Spirits and helped them earn battle merits. Akesato called it away to join him, leaving the girls disappointed and Mechamaru confused by their reaction to his arrival.

• Aoi Todo exorcised numerous Cursed Spirits, including the Special Grade Imaginary Cursed Spirit Otake-maru, but his focus on fighting left his teammates exposed.
• Mai Zenin, Kasumi Miwa, and Momo Nishimiya were cornered by Cursed Spirits until Mai’s phone summoned Porygon-Z.

• Akesato summoned Porygon away, despite the girls asking him to let it stay, and Porygon promised to return after completing its task.
• Ultimate Mechamaru arrived to take over the mission, but the girls barely reacted, leaving him bewildered as Akesato patted his shoulder.

Akesato visited Kokichi Muta and saw Happiny thriving in her underground home, then urged the lovestruck Kokichi to make an effort with Kasumi Miwa. Porygon-V offered to teach Kokichi how to win her over.

• Akesato followed the internet cable to Kokichi's underground residence and learned how Happiny had evolved by fighting small animals.
• Kokichi showed Akesato footage of Happiny directing puppets and battering Cursed Spirits, then Happiny greeted Akesato and shared an egg with him.
• Akesato joked about taking Happiny away, but Happiny pleaded to stay with Kokichi, who assured her he was used to her care.
• Akesato asked Kokichi why Mai, Senior Nishinomiya, and Miwa had acted as they did, but Kokichi failed to recognize their feelings or his own chance with Miwa.
• Porygon-V advised Kokichi to prepare a secret weapon to save Miwa in a crisis and announced that it would teach him how to win her over.

Akesato recruited Porygon-Z to advise Kokichi on love and monitor Suguru Geto’s remaining followers, then asked Kokichi to help with surveillance using his puppets. Kokichi agreed but worried Akesato might know about his secret collusion with Suguru Geto.

• Akesato threatened to confine Porygon-Z to a dedicated database unless it worked properly and stopped causing trouble, and Porygon-Z promised to obey.

• Akesato asked Kokichi to use his Puppet Manipulation Technique to help track the followers, replacing his earlier offer to build Kokichi a Gundam.
• Akesato explained that he also suspected someone in the alliance was colluding with Suguru Geto, and Kokichi wondered whether Akesato had uncovered his own secret involvement.

Akesato told Kokichi that Mahito might be a Cursed Spirit capable of healing him and recruited him to conceal Pokémon from Kenjaku and Mahito. He also invited Kokichi to help study mysterious cubes with Porygon, offering him a role in building a Pokémon ecosystem.

• Kokichi admitted he had once made a deal with Suguru Geto, and Akesato praised his honesty before revealing that a Cursed Spirit might be able to heal him.
