Ch. 51I'll Definitely Be Back

Yue Liusi cleared Tokyo No. 2 Colony, sent sorcerers to finish the other colonies, and created an Innate Domain for Yuki Tsukumo while questioning the system about his past. He then arrived in Tokyo No. 1 Colony and identified Sukuna inside Yuji Itadori as the Fallen Angel wanted killed.

  • Yue Liusi struck Hajime Kashimo out of the sky with a golden fox tail, and Kashimo shouted that he would be back as he flew away.

After Yue Liusi rescued Megumi Fushiguro’s sister from Yorozu, Sloth escaped with Sukuna’s remains and warned Yue Liusi to meet him in the Pacific in ten days.
