After Satoru Gojo’s death, Akesato organized a crackdown on Curse Users while preparing to negotiate with the incarnated ancient Jujutsu Sorcerers. As reports arrived about a suspected angel and the Integration Bureau’s delegation, he faced several urgent developments at once.

• Maki Zenin and groups of Jujutsu High students hunted down Curse Users across Japan using intelligence from Porygon and Kokichi.

• Kenjaku awakened from a pool of green liquid and concluded that its plan had failed again.

Kenjaku’s past revealed how his search for immortality began, how he learned from Tengen, and how their opposing beliefs turned them into enemies. After Toji Fushiguro disrupted Tengen’s causal protection and Kenjaku’s plan advanced, Kenjaku discovered that the Initial Tree he had relied on was never truly his.

• Kenjaku had studied under Tengen and learned Barrier Techniques, Shikigami Technique, and the mysteries of the Source Codex and Tengen’s Immortality Cursed Technique.
