The chapter break Yuji really gained stock Manipulation not through hismaternal ties with Kenjakubut rather through consuming the remaining six Cursed Womb Death Paintings .
As for Sukuna ’s Cursed Technique , the chapter explains that Yuji has managed to manifest the Cursed Technique due to being in an awakened state from performing straight Black Flashes , suggesting that it may have been lying dormant inside him for quite some time .

Yuji Awakens Sukuna’s Cursed Technique At Last
Jujutsu Kaisencreated by Gege Akutami, chapter #257, “Inhuman Makyo Shinjuku Showdown, Part 29”
While Sukuna ’s Cursed Technique name is a currently debate subject , it understandably has to do with the power of cutting . Moreover , Yuji has manifested a somewhat dissimilar version of the Cursed Technique , wherein his slashes first take the human body of a visualized dust line with lilliputian scissor symbols which Yuji then trim along , giving Sukuna ’s eld - old technique a rather modern twist that better fits Yuji ’s part .
The prescribed version of the chapter , free on the Viz app and MANGA Plus , translate Sukuna ’s Cursed Technique name as " Malevolent Shrine " . Many buff have criticized this as a mistranslation , claim that the correct name is " Shrine " , while " Malevolent Shrine " is the name of Sukuna ’s Domain Expansion .
As Sukuna notes in the tardy chapter , since Yuji has only just manifest the proficiency , his output is n’t very high but is being compensated for by his truth . As such , while he has access code to all the same slice attacks as Sukuna , such as Cleave and Dismantle , his attack are n’t nearly as in force or brawny as Sukuna ’s just yet , though there is a opening he could make the same level with time .
Most interestingly , this development was predicted by Gojo as early as chapter # 12 when he speculated that Yuji would eventually gain access to Sukuna ’s Cursed Technique after spending enough time as his vessel . However , as time passed and Yuji show no signs of manifesting Sukuna ’s Cursed Technique , despite the latter develop improbably strong , fans had all but dismissed the possibility or adopt that Gojo had been wrong .
That said , the concept was actually subtly explored through Mahito , whose character and abilities brought up the connexion between the trunk and the individual which would later be expanded on by Kenjaku as well . At Shibuya , Kenjaku offer that " the body is the soul and the soul is the body " , entail that both can modify each other to some extent . This might explain how Sukuna ’s Cursed technique was etch on Yuji who according to Kenjaku in chapter # 203 , was intended to be the perfect vas for Sukuna from the very scratch line .
Yuji’s Second Cursed Technique Was Also Foreshadowed Many Times
ThoughYuji has been using Blood Manipulationfor quite some time , chapter # 257 lastly explains how he hit the technique , which may have actually been foreshadowed many chapters prior . Due to Kenjaku ’s involvement in Yuji ’s nascence , many fans had feign that Yuji was also a Death Painting like Choso and had possibly inherited the technique from Kenjaku , who probably held on to it since possessing Noritoshi Kamo .
However , the modish chapter explains that Yuji has assimilate the residuum of the Death Paintings , namely four through nine , which were revealed to be stash away at Jujutsu High ’s Cursed Warehouse in chapter # 144 . Chapter # 220 also provided another major hint that Yuji had consume the six remain Cursed Wombs through a curious exchange between Choso and Yuji where Choso arrogate his crony would live on inside Yuji . This would have in mind that Yuji has had line use for less than a month , which could explain why Yuji can not apply Convergence very well just yet , as Choso explains in chapter # 256 .
It is potential that the Blood Manipulation technique was engraved on Yuji ’s physical structure like to how Malevolent Shrine was from hosting Sukuna . Choso and Noritoshi also in all likelihood played a part in helping Yuji manifest and hold in the proficiency , as they were teased to have been instruct Yuji during the calendar month - farsighted preparation before the battle against Sukuna .
Yuji’s New Powers Make Him Sukuna’s Only Remaining Equal in Jujutsu Kaisen
Yuji Will Be the Key to Finally Defeating Sukuna
Though Sukuna has always underestimate Yuji , often to the point of insulting him , Yuji has finally managed to raise himselfin the latest chapter , forcing Sukuna to recognize his existence and the threat he puzzle , much to Sukuna ’s annoyance . Yuji ’s fresh powers cement him as Sukuna ’s only potential adequate depart in the serial and the sorcerer with the highest chance of actually defeating Sukuna .
As of chapter # 257,Yuji has wangle to land a totality of eight Black Flashes against Sukuna , intermit even his own record in doing so . Though Sukuna has wield to maintain his common smug frontage thus far , Yuji has finally succeeded in getting under his skin , even evoking everlasting furor in Sukuna for what seems to be the first time ever in the series .
As such , if there is anybody go away on the battlefield who can rival Sukuna , it is doubtless Yuji . Despite his promiscuous hold on his newly awakened index , Yuji ’s perseverance and freakishly high aptitude suggest it may not be long before he get the picture how to well use his new Cursed Techniques just enough to bring Sukuna to the verge of frustration . Moreover , Yuji ’s character and saint directly oppose Sukuna ’s lack thereof , which only makes the possibility of Sukuna ’s defeat at Yuji ’s hands all the more substantial and thematically fitting .

Overall , although Sukuna has ostensibly possess the upper hand for the majority of the battle at Shinjuku , the sorcerers ' efforts have gradually managed to break off away at his strength , taking away his vantage one ability at a time . These conflict and sacrifices have paved the way for Yuji and his fresh manifested Cursed Techniques to finally plow the lunar time period against Sukuna for respectable . Yuji ’s new tycoon uphas also still any doubts about his being the protagonist ofJujutsu Kaisenas he finally steals the spotlight that was rightly his all along .
