Satoru Gojo used Shiratori Gotsu’s information and his training to gain an advantage over Sukuna in their domain clash. Sukuna countered by changing Malevolent Shrine’s conditions and exploiting physical contact, leaving Unlimited Void’s barrier cracking again.

• Satoru Gojo and Sukuna exchanged blows before simultaneously activating their domains, Unlimited Void and Malevolent Shrine.
• Malevolent Shrine’s slashes cracked Unlimited Void’s outer barrier, but Gojo compressed his domain to withstand the attack.
• Gojo taunted Sukuna and struck him, while Sukuna used the momentum to get behind Gojo and restrain him.
• Sukuna shrank Malevolent Shrine’s range, canceled its sure-hit effect inside the domain through a Binding Vow, and increased the slashes’ power outside it.

• Sukuna repaired his technique burnout and clashed with Satoru Gojo’s Unlimited Void again, but Gojo struck him before Malevolent Shrine could prevail.
• Mahoraga appeared, shattered Unlimited Void’s barrier, and revealed that it had adapted to the domain after Sukuna used Megumi Fushiguro’s soul to bear the sure-hit effects.

• Sukuna’s attempt to expand Malevolent Shrine failed because Unlimited Void had damaged his brain, and Gojo followed up with attacks.
• Ryu Ishigori blasted Sukuna, then Shiratori Gotsu joined the battlefield and told Gojo to rest while he and Ishigori fought Sukuna.

Shiratori Gotsu trapped Sukuna in Refrain of the Life Wedge and shared its enormous health-bar reserves with Yuta Okkotsu and Ryu Ishigori. As the three fought Sukuna and his Shikigami, Satoru Gojo explained that Fate Track Binding Curse had effectively stopped Mahoraga from adapting to its damage.

• Shiratori Gotsu divided the domain’s health-bar reserves among himself, Yuta Okkotsu, and Ryu Ishigori, who attacked Sukuna together.
• Sukuna summoned Agito and Mahoraga, then tried to make Shiratori Gotsu break his Binding Vow, but Shiratori Gotsu argued that his attacks damaged health bars rather than people.
• Yuta Okkotsu struck Mahoraga with Thin Ice Breaker, and the Shikigami’s health bar did not recover even though its Dharma Wheel turned.
• Satoru Gojo returned to the monitoring room and explained that Fate Track Binding Curse interrupted Mahoraga’s adaptation, leaving it vulnerable to the technique’s Instant Death effect.

Shiratori Gotsu revealed how his technique let Yuta Okkotsu kill Mahoraga without triggering its adaptation, then Sukuna restored his original body and prepared to counterattack. Sukuna sacrificed the Ten Shadows Technique through a Binding Vow to reopen his domain and unleashed Malevolent Shrine against Shiratori Gotsu.

• Yuta Okkotsu's final blow emptied Mahoraga's health bar, causing the Shikigami to crumble into ash as his connection with Rika ended.

Shiratori Gotsu escaped Sukuna’s Malevolent Shrine with help from Ryu Ishigori, but Sukuna overwhelmed him and threw him from a rooftop. Shiratori deactivated Fate Track Binding Curse and made a Binding Vow to restore his Cursed Energy, then struck the ground as Okkotsu and Ishigori arrived.

• Shiratori Gotsu used Hollow Wicker Basket and asked Ryu Ishigori to blast him with Granite Blast, launching him beyond Malevolent Shrine’s range.
• Sukuna dispelled his domain, caught up with Shiratori Gotsu, and battered him until his remaining HP fell to 8,900.

• Shiratori Gotsu made a Binding Vow to restore his Cursed Energy in exchange for being unable to expand his domain for three months.
• Shiratori Gotsu slammed into the ground as Okkotsu and Ryu Ishigori arrived.

The system offered him a choice between going north to become someone new or south to find his old self, and Shiratori chose south, determined to return and defeat Sukuna.

• Shiratori Gotsu met the system in his Innate Domain and learned that he was close to brain death but still alive.

• Shiratori Gotsu woke in the infirmary, learned Hajime Kashimo was fighting Sukuna, and went to meet Yuta Okkotsu, Ryu Ishigori, and Satoru Gojo.
• Shiratori Gotsu and Satoru Gojo went to a room where Yoshinobu Gakuganji, Utahime Iori, and Nobara Kugisaki’s grandmother were waiting by Sukuna’s last finger.

• Sukuna told Hajime Kashimo that he found love and companionship boring, while he enjoyed savoring strong opponents like Satoru Gojo and Shiratori Gotsu.
• Uraume returned with Yorozu’s Cursed Tool, Kamutoke, and Sukuna welcomed Uraume as Yuta Okkotsu and Ryu Ishigori approached the battlefield.

Ryu Ishigori fought Uraume inside his Domain Expansion, unveiling new techniques that let him absorb her attacks and return them as powerful blasts. Uraume was defeated, and her final thoughts recalled how Sukuna had taken her in as a child.

• Okkotsu and Ryu Ishigori separated Sukuna and Uraume, then each trapped an opponent inside a Domain Expansion.
• Ryu Ishigori used Maximum Technique: Fireworks to injure Uraume after she mistakenly relied on Hollow Wicker Basket to nullify it.
• Uraume healed with Reverse Cursed Technique and attacked with Frost Calm, but Ryu Ishigori absorbed its Cursed Energy using Cursed Technique Reversal: Deep Draught.

• As Uraume was swallowed by the blast, she remembered meeting Sukuna as a child and following him after he invited her along.

• Ryu Ishigori killed Uraume with his hidden techniques, and Shiratori Gotsu sent Maki, Higuruma, and Itadori into action.

• Gojo exorcised the Cursed Spirits released from Geto’s body, then destroyed Kenjaku’s true form with Cursed Technique Reversal: Red.
• Gojo picked up Tengen, who was encased in a translucent sphere, and said he would take him back to Gakuganji.

In Higuruma’s Deadly Sentencing domain, Maki and Itadori exploited Sukuna’s inability to use violence, landing repeated attacks while Higuruma stalled the trial with a deliberately slow accusation. Sukuna restored his Reverse Cursed Technique through a Binding Vow, then opened Malevolent Shrine to break the courtroom’s restrictions from outside.

• Higuruma repeatedly read Shiratori Gotsu’s insulting description of Sukuna, while the domain’s rules punished Sukuna whenever he tried to fight.
• Sukuna used Hollow Wicker Basket to escape the violence restriction, but Maki and Itadori attacked him together, with Itadori landing four consecutive Black Flashes.

• Sukuna expanded Malevolent Shrine and altered its sure-hit effect with another Binding Vow, aiming to bypass the domain’s ban on violence and end the trial.

Shiratori Gotsu’s plan to use Nobara Kugisaki’s Straw Doll Technique weakened Sukuna enough for the sorcerers to attack him, while Itadori reached Megumi Fushiguro’s soul. The chapter left Megumi unwilling to be rescued until Shiratori confronted him in the soul space.

• At Shiratori Gotsu’s direction, Shoko removed parts of the comatose Nobara Kugisaki, and Rika ate them so Okkotsu could copy the Straw Doll Technique.
• Okkotsu and Kugisaki’s grandmother used Resonance on Sukuna’s Finger as Higuruma’s domain faltered, striking Sukuna’s soul and disrupting his domain.
• Shiratori Gotsu attacked Sukuna with Nanami’s Cursed Tool, while Okkotsu’s Cursed Speech immobilized him; Shiratori landed two Black Flashes and weakened Malevolent Shrine.
• Maki, Ryu Ishigori, and Itadori joined the assault, and Itadori struck Sukuna while calling for Fushiguro to wake up.
• In the pre-battle meeting, Shiratori proposed copying Kugisaki’s technique and using Resonance on Gojo’s hidden finger to weaken Sukuna’s hold on Megumi Fushiguro.
• Itadori reached Megumi Fushiguro’s soul, but Megumi asked him to kill them both, prompting Shiratori to challenge Megumi’s despair.

Shiratori Gotsu and Itadori confronted Megumi Fushiguro in the soul space, persuading him to resist Sukuna and live for others. Megumi began weakening Sukuna’s control, and Itadori’s successive Black Flashes culminated in a Domain Expansion that trapped Sukuna on a deserted train platform.

• Shiratori Gotsu entered Megumi Fushiguro’s soul space and challenged him for giving up while his companions risked their lives to save him.
• Itadori told Megumi that he could not simply order him to keep living, but admitted he would be lonely without him.

• Itadori landed eight consecutive Black Flashes, awakened his potential, and opened his Domain Expansion around Sukuna.
