Jie Jian encouraged Miwa to prove her strength, and Hakari arranged a sparring match between her and Kashimo. The chapter ended with Jie Jian’s teasing provoking Kashimo as the fight was about to begin.

• Jie Jian told Miwa to show her strength rather than try to convince others, citing Kusakabe as a sorcerer without a cursed technique.

• Jie Jian mocked Kashimo and egged Miwa on, enraging Kashimo just before the match began.

Kasumi Miwa explained her binding vow to Hajime Kashimo, then learned from Jie Jian that she could exploit its wording rather than give up swordsmanship entirely. Jie Jian left Miwa holding a sword with its guard removed, arguing that it no longer counted as a sword.

• Kasumi Miwa told Hajime Kashimo that her lifelong vow prevented her from wielding a sword, and he accepted her explanation.
• When Hajime Kashimo asked how she planned to fight, Kasumi Miwa said Jie Jian would handle the battle, but Jie Jian insisted she had to fight herself and offered only cursed energy.

• Jie Jian took control of Kasumi Miwa, removed the guard from Atsuya Kusakabe's sword, and returned it to her.
• Jie Jian told Kasumi Miwa that the weapon no longer counted as a sword because it had no guard, so she could wield it without violating her vow.

Jie Jian showed Kasumi Miwa how to use a guardless blade to interpret her Binding Vow against swinging a sword, then flooded her with cursed energy as she faced Hajime Kashimo. Miwa blocked Kashimo’s first attack and survived being sent flying, leaving the fight underway as she relied on Jie Jian’s guidance and powerful cursed energy reinforcement.

• Jie Jian removed Kusakabe’s sword guard and told Miwa she could swing the object as long as she did not call it a sword.

• Kashimo changed his attack and sent Miwa crashing into the field, but her cursed energy reinforcement left her uninjured.
• Satoru Gojo reassured the onlookers and explained that Miwa’s abundant cursed energy had protected her.

Jie Jian helped Kasumi Miwa withstand Hajime Kashimo’s attack, but Kashimo’s speed overwhelmed her until she remembered how to use New Shadow Style. Miwa activated Simple Domain and Sword Draw to prepare for his next assault, and Kashimo chose to test her head-on.

• Jie Jian’s cursed energy protected Kasumi Miwa from Kashimo’s first attack, impressing her.
• Kashimo moved too quickly for Miwa to block his next strike and sent her crashing into the playground wall.
• Jie Jian reminded Miwa to use New Shadow Style, and she returned to the playground and activated Simple Domain and Sword Draw.
• Kashimo recognized Miwa’s stance but decided to attack her directly to test the speed of her slash.

Kasumi Miwa’s Simple Domain let her block Hajime Kashimo’s first attack, but he disarmed and kicked her aside, then mocked her skill. Jie Jian defended Miwa and challenged Kashimo before calling on Kusakabe to fight, but Kashimo attacked again and demanded that Jie Jian take control of Miwa’s body and face him.

• Hajime Kashimo charged into Kasumi Miwa’s Simple Domain, and Miwa’s automatic sword draw blocked his opening strike.

• Jie Jian refused Hajime Kashimo's challenge at first, but Hajime Kashimo provoked him into fighting.
• Jie Jian controlled Kasumi Miwa's body, deliberately allowed Hajime Kashimo to knock him toward her fallen sword, and picked it up.

• Hajime Kashimo fell to one knee and told Jie Jian that his technique was not New Shadow Style.

Jie Jian defeated Hajime Kashimo with a Simple Domain modified by Binding Vows, then explained how he used those vows to boost his speed and strike power. He urged Kasumi Miwa to treat Binding Vows as flexible tools, leaving her to reconsider how she could use them.

• Jie Jian struck down Hajime Kashimo, and Okkotsu Yuta healed Kashimo’s chest wound with Reverse Cursed Technique.
• Hajime Kashimo correctly identified that Jie Jian had changed Simple Domain’s restriction, but Jie Jian revealed he had changed it from “cannot move” to “can only advance.”
• Jie Jian explained that the vow let him gain extraordinary speed in a straight line and that he had strengthened his slash with a second vow allowing him to swing his blade only once in the battle.

• Kasumi Miwa reconsidered the Binding Vow she had made against Kenjaku after Jie Jian explained how vows could boost combat strength.
• Jie Jian revealed that Sukuna would use a Binding Vow to land a sudden Spatial Slash that cut Satoru Gojo in half, prompting Gojo to teleport away to avoid more spoilers.
• Okkotsu treated Hajime Kashimo, who abandoned his rematch with Jie Jian while his chest wound was still healing.
• Jie Jian criticized Miwa for letting opponents disarm her, forgetting his lesson, and failing to test the terms of Thunderclap and Flash.
• Momo Nishimiya tried to comfort Miwa, who accepted that she was not ready to challenge Sukuna and resolved to train harder.

Kasumi Miwa trained relentlessly to master Thunderclap and Flash, while Jie Jian and Kusakabe explained why the technique depended on her unusual power. After Yuta Okkotsu asked about Gojo-sensei’s condition before the Shinjuku Showdown, he revealed that he wanted to prevent Gojo’s death.

• Kasumi Miwa asked Momo Nishimiya to leave so she could train, but Momo and Atsuya Kusakabe stayed to help her.
• Kasumi Miwa practiced Thunderclap and Flash at Jujutsu High, enduring Jie Jian’s harsh criticism as she worked to become strong enough to challenge Sukuna.
• Atsuya Kusakabe realized that Thunderclap and Flash required the immense cursed energy and speed that Jie Jian gave Kasumi Miwa, making it impractical for him to use.

• Kasumi Miwa’s training advanced until she could trade blows evenly with Atsuya Kusakabe.
• Yuta Okkotsu asked Kasumi Miwa about Gojo-sensei’s condition before the Shinjuku Showdown and said he wanted to prevent Gojo’s death.

Okkotsu gathered Kasumi Miwa’s detailed knowledge of the Shinjuku Showdown, while Miwa vowed to step in if Satoru Gojo still died. As the December 24 fight with Sukuna approached, Jie Jian began preparing a stronger binding for Miwa’s Thunderclap and Flash, ending by proposing that she land a Black Flash with every sword strike.

• Okkotsu asked Kasumi Miwa to recount everything she knew about Sukuna and the Shinjuku Showdown, and he filled a notebook with her account.
• Okkotsu asked what Miwa would do if Gojo could not avoid dying, and Miwa promised to step in if that day came.
• As the December 24 duel with Sukuna neared and Gojo remained absent, Okkotsu focused on battle plans while Jie Jian prepared to test himself against a weakened Sukuna.
• Jie Jian watched Miwa perform Thunderclap and Flash and told her the straight-line attack would not be powerful enough against Sukuna.
• Jie Jian asked Miwa to consider whether landing a Black Flash with every sword strike could make defeating Sukuna effortless.

Jie Jian took control of Kasumi Miwa to teach her how to land Black Flash, explaining that it required cursed energy, body, and soul to act in unity. His repeated demonstrations with a sword and his bare hands all failed, and he insisted on trying again.

• Kasumi Miwa doubted that sorcerers could land Black Flash at will, and Jie Jian reminded her that Yuji Itadori had landed eight in a row.
• Jie Jian explained that Black Flash depended on cursed energy, body, and soul resonating as one, then controlled Kasumi Miwa to demonstrate.
• Jie Jian cut a wooden post twice with his sword, but neither slash produced Black Flash.
• Jie Jian switched to punching the ground, but his first two cursed-energy strikes only cracked it and still failed to create Black Flash.
• Jie Jian refused Kasumi Miwa's suggestion to stop and vowed to land a Black Flash that day.

Jie Jian repeatedly tried to trigger Black Flash through Kasumi Miwa, wrecking Jujutsu High’s training field before finally succeeding and teaching her to sense its core. Miwa made no progress in understanding it, and training stopped when December 24 arrived—the day of Satoru Gojo and Sukuna’s battle.

• Jie Jian’s failed Black Flash attempt devastated the training field, and he told Miwa she would have to pay for the damage before leaving her body.
• Yuta Okkotsu and the others arrived, and Yuta and Maki reassured Miwa that Jujutsu High and Satoru Gojo would cover the repairs.
• Over the next few days, Jie Jian’s attempts left the training field riddled with craters until he finally triggered a Black Flash using Miwa’s body.
• Jie Jian asked Miwa to study the Black Flash core, then patiently guided her as she trained to sense the connection between cursed energy and her body.
• Miwa failed to understand the Black Flash core or trigger Black Flash, and she stopped training on December 24, the day Satoru Gojo and Sukuna were set to fight.

Kasumi Miwa worried about whether Satoru Gojo could defeat Sukuna, while Jie Jian reminded her to focus on her own mission to defeat Sukuna. At Jujutsu High, Gojo rejected Yuta Okkotsu’s research and left confidently for his duel after the others gave him their encouragement.

• Kasumi Miwa asked Jie Jian whether Gojo-sensei could defeat Sukuna, and Jie Jian reminded her that she had been reborn to defeat Sukuna herself.
• Satoru Gojo arrived at Jujutsu High’s conference room and brushed aside Yuta Okkotsu’s notes about Sukuna, declaring that he trusted his own strength and would win.
• Yuji Itadori and the others patted Satoru Gojo on the back and wished him luck before his duel.
• Jie Jian took control of Kasumi Miwa’s body to pat Satoru Gojo, leaving Miwa upset that she had not done it herself.
• Satoru Gojo put on his coat and left the conference room while Kasumi Miwa watched regretfully.

Kasumi Miwa watched Satoru Gojo and Sukuna’s battle unfold on Mei Mei’s livestream, recognizing the events from the future she remembered. The chapter ended as Sukuna’s Spatial Slash cut Satoru Gojo in half.

• At Jujutsu High, Yuji Itadori and the others prepared to watch the battle and stand ready to support Satoru Gojo.
• Sukuna appeared in Shinjuku, and Satoru Gojo opened the fight with a 200% Hollow Purple sneak attack.
• Satoru Gojo and Sukuna clashed in a fierce battle while Kasumi Miwa recognized that Mahoraga was adapting to Limitless.
• Satoru Gojo unleashed an unrestricted Hollow Purple that devastated Shinjuku and left Sukuna badly injured.
• Sukuna released Spatial Slash, and it cut Satoru Gojo in half.

Gojo survived Sukuna’s Spatial Slash by having it strike his height-increasing insoles instead of his source of cursed energy, then gained the upper hand in their renewed battle. After Gojo hit Sukuna with Hollow Purple, Sukuna transformed into his original four-armed form.

• Gojo reappeared in the sky and regenerated his lower body, while Sukuna realized his Spatial Slash had struck Gojo’s shoe because of the height-increasing insoles.
• Gojo and Sukuna resumed fighting, and Gojo used his speed to limit Sukuna’s chances to perform another Spatial Slash.
• Gojo struck Sukuna with Red and then fired Hollow Purple, leaving Sukuna badly injured in a crater.
• Sukuna rose from the ruins and transformed into his original four-armed form.

Satoru Gojo forced Sukuna to reveal his four-armed original form, but continued to dominate the fight until Sukuna used a Spatial Slash to sever Gojo's arm. Jie Jian explained how Sukuna had fulfilled the slash's requirements with his extra arms and abdominal mouth, leaving Gojo facing Sukuna's greatest advantage.

• Jie Jian worried that Sukuna's transformation would take away Kasumi Miwa's chance to shine, while Hajime Kashimo sensed someone was slandering him.
• Sukuna transformed into his four-armed original form and clashed with Satoru Gojo, whose Red blasted Sukuna through three skyscrapers.
• Kusakabe cheered Gojo on, while Jie Jian reminded Kasumi Miwa that she still needed to find a way to fight Sukuna herself.
• Satoru Gojo taunted Sukuna and evaded his slashes, but Sukuna used a Spatial Slash to sever Gojo's arm.
• Jie Jian explained that Sukuna used two arms for combat and the other two to form hand seals and aim, while his abdominal mouth chanted.

Gojo and Sukuna continued their fierce battle above Shinjuku, trading Spatial Slashes and an unrestricted Hollow Purple that devastated the city center. As both fighters showed signs of weakening, Jie Jian proposed that the others go to Shinjuku and help.

• Sukuna used Spatial Slashes to suppress Gojo, but Gojo countered with Red and dodged another slash after spotting Sukuna's hand sign.
• Gojo and Sukuna clashed again, then unleashed an unrestricted Hollow Purple and a Spatial Slash at nearly the same time, flattening central Shinjuku.
• Gojo and Sukuna, both badly injured, acknowledged each other's strength and resumed fighting at a slower pace.
• Jie Jian noticed that Gojo's and Sukuna's cursed energy output and Reverse Cursed Technique efficiency were declining.
• Jie Jian suggested that the group head to Shinjuku to help, while Okkotsu and Hajime Kashimo objected that Gojo had told them not to interfere.

Jie Jian persuaded the sorcerers in the conference room to consider joining Satoru Gojo’s battle against Sukuna, who wounded Gojo but continued fighting at close range. When the group decided to send a vanguard to test Sukuna’s remaining strength, Jie Jian nominated Kasumi Miwa.

• Kasumi Miwa hesitated to join the fight, but Jie Jian and Kusakabe argued that the sorcerers should help Satoru Gojo.
• Sukuna restrained Gojo and nearly landed a Spatial Slash, but Gojo used Blue to break free and suffered a deep wound along his waist.
• Sukuna mocked Gojo’s slower healing and resumed attacking, confident that he would win the prolonged fight.
• Jie Jian urged the conference room to act, and Yuta Okkotsu considered sending one sorcerer ahead to test Sukuna’s strength.
• Yuji Itadori, Choso, and Yuta Okkotsu offered to go, but Jie Jian reminded Yuta of his mission to eliminate Kenjaku.
• Jie Jian nominated Kasumi Miwa as the vanguard to fight Sukuna.

Kasumi Miwa was sent to the Shinjuku battlefield after Jie Jian persuaded Hajime Kashimo to wait for a later chance to use Mythical Beast Amber. Miwa reached Sukuna and severed one of his arms with a lightning-fast strike, leaving the fight poised to continue.

• Jie Jian told Kasumi Miwa to go before Hajime Kashimo, explaining that Gojo and Sukuna were exhausted and she could strike while they were vulnerable.
• Jie Jian convinced Hajime Kashimo to let Miwa test the waters so he could later unleash Mythical Beast Amber against Sukuna alone.
• Ui Ui teleported Miwa to the edge of the Shinjuku battlefield, where Sukuna recognized her as a Grade 4 Sorcerer.
• Miwa activated Simple Domain and used New Shadow Style: Iaijutsu: Thunderclap and Flash to rush past Sukuna and cut off one of his arms.
• Jie Jian joked that Sukuna's fingers were turning purple and his arm's blood circulation might be poor.
