Chapter Summaries

Uraume noticed Little Fox’s second tail was gone, and Sukuna took the fox and Uraume to Kyoto after the family that had pursued him was destroyed. With the family’s stolen riches, they checked into a fine inn and explored town, while Sukuna savored his newfound freedom.

Sukuna took Little Fox and Uraume to an ordinary eatery, where Little Fox sampled the food, enjoyed a sweet grain wine, and drank the whole bottle. When the drunk fox tried to buy more, Sukuna and Uraume convinced it the wine was sold out, leaving it tearfully mourning the last of its drink.

• Sukuna brought Little Fox and Uraume to an eatery and ordered a variety of dishes, then said he would cook for them that night.

• After eating until it was stuffed, the Little Fox thought that being picked up by Sukuna and Uraume had made it the happiest little fox in the world.

• A flash of white light pulled Little Fox into a pure white space, and Sukuna held him while wondering whether deities existed and resolving not to let one take Little Fox away again.

Little Fox discovered the memories behind its rebirth and learned why it had lost its memories. Sukuna reunited with it after a thousand years and vowed never to let it leave his side again.

• Sukuna told Little Fox that Gojo was tricking it, and Little Fox turned on Gojo with an accusing glare.

Gojo searched for a suitable body so Sukuna could leave Itadori’s body, but the gathered death row inmates were all unsuitable. Little Fox revealed a comatose boy named Bai Li, whose body proved compatible with Sukuna and Little Fox’s cursed energy.

• Gojo explained that death row inmates were the only viable candidates and brought Sukuna to inspect hundreds of them, but Sukuna rejected them all.
• Little Fox told Gojo about Bai Li, a boy who had fallen into a coma after being marked, and Gojo found that Bai Li was still unconscious in the hospital.
• Gojo discovered that Bai Li’s body had no soul, while Little Fox used reverse cursed technique to restore some of the boy’s vitality.
• Sukuna and Little Fox combined their cursed energy to test Bai Li’s body, and Sukuna confirmed that it would work.

Itadori brought Little Fox to Jujutsu High, where the students gathered to welcome him and meet Sukuna and Uraume. Little Fox possessed Sukuna’s body to greet everyone, but tripped and fell as he ran toward Nobara.

• Itadori told Little Fox that his friends had arranged a celebration, and Sukuna agreed to accompany him to Jujutsu High.
• Sukuna, Uraume, Gojo, Itadori, and Little Fox arrived at the dorms, where the students and the returning Yuta Okkotsu were waiting.

• Gojo added Jujutsu High members to Sukuna’s phone and messaged that Sukuna could bring Little Fox back anytime, prompting Sukuna to consider blocking him.

Gojo and Sukuna discussed finding Kenjaku and using the Prison Realm, but Gojo realized Sukuna knew Little Fox's past memories and threatened to tell it. Little Fox interrupted their near-fight, then got upset when they stopped and went back for more fermented rice wine, prompting Sukuna to carry off the tipsy fox.

• Sukuna told Gojo that he was willing to kill Kenjaku, while Gojo explained that he planned to seal Kenjaku in the Prison Realm instead.

• Sukuna realized the rice was wine, strode inside, and lifted the tipsy Little Fox off the table by the scruff.

Gojo explained that Sukuna still faced some limits from the Binding Vow, then left to deal with Kenjaku while Okkotsu watched over the school. Sukuna cared for the tipsy Little Fox through the night, and they woke together before sharing breakfast with Uraume.

• Gojo told Okkotsu that Sukuna had held back because the Binding Vow still affected him, though Sukuna might survive its punishment, and asked Okkotsu to keep the students at school while he dealt with Kenjaku.

• In the morning, Sukuna and the Little Fox woke beneath the blanket, greeted each other, and Sukuna gently rubbed its brow.
• Uraume served Sukuna and the Little Fox a lavish breakfast, and the three ate together as they had a thousand years earlier.

Sukuna learned that Gojo had named him an honorary professor at Jujutsu High, and Little Fox’s excitement persuaded him to accept the role. When Little Fox urged Itadori to demonstrate the Dismantle technique it had taught him, Sukuna intervened after realizing Itadori could no longer use it.

• After teaching for five minutes, Megumi Fushiguro moved Itadori to the back beside Sukuna and texted Teacher Gojo for another teacher.
