2. Chapter 239 Raw Scans, Leaks
In the chapter titled “The Stupid Survivor,” an unexpected turn of events occurs as the focus shifts away from the anticipated battle between Yuji Itadori and Sukuna to a cunning strategist named Kenjaku.
A woman who bears a resemblance to Takako Uro desperately runs from someone, placing the blame on Kenjaku for the cruel events unfolding in the Culling Game.
She questions the morality of giving cursed individuals a second chance at life only to take it away again. Despite her resistance, Kenjaku captures her with a jellyfish-like curse.
Kenjaku, the story’s antagonist, unveils his sinister plan to harness cursed energy, demonstrating a complete lack of mercy as he eliminates the woman, considering her a valuable asset in his scheme.
He metaphorically compares these individuals to spices, adjusting their intensity to fit his purposes. With a heartless demeanor, he reveals that he has located every reincarnated sorcerer, transforming them into Cursed Objects, rendering them susceptible to his evil intentions.
Another reincarnated sorcerer, Iori Hazenoki, stands up to Kenjaku, refusing to be manipulated. In the meantime, Kenjaku, armed with advanced technology, observes the fierce battle between Gojo and Sukuna, admiring Gojo’s immense power.
He discloses his surveillance system, keeping a vigilant eye on Shinjuku and strategically planning his actions.
The chapter intensifies as Kenjaku ruthlessly attacks Hazenoki, who attempts to escape. Kenjaku unveils his sinister objective: to eliminate all participants in the Culling Game, using their cursed energy to merge with Master Tengen and initiate a nationwide transformation.
In his final moments, Hazenoki imparts cryptic words, urging Kenjaku to self-reflect and seek answers within himself.
As the tension peaks, Fumihiko Takaba enters the scene, directly confronting Kenjaku.
Kenjaku, surprised by Takaba’s unwavering determination, recognizes an exceptional quality in him. Undaunted, Takaba declares war against Kenjaku, setting the stage for an epic showdown.
3. Chapter 239 Speculation
I. Sukuna vs. Yuji
Yuji Itadori’s duel against Sukuna in Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 239 will be intense and driven by hatred over prior events, which include Gojo’s and, now possibly, Megumi’s death. Higuruma’s cursed technique could be crucial in the fight, weakening Sukuna before Yuji takes over.
In the following chapter, Higuruma is a possible contender for another character’s death. Yuji and Sukuna’s combat will be violent and action-packed, with readers curious to see how long Yuji can last in this battle. What the claws on Yuji’s hand could suggest is a clue to his cursed technique.
Gojo once hinted that Sukuna’s cursed technique would eventually become Yuji’s. As hinted at the close of the last chapter, the process for this to occur appears to have already begun, and this ability can be seen in the change in Yuji’s appearance.
I. The aftermath of Gojo and Kashimo’s death
Readers were forced to compartmentalize their feelings after Gojo and Kashimo died. What every sorcerer close to Gojo felt after he died was not shown in chapter 236; the same scenario might continue to the next chapter.
4. Chapter 238 Recap
Kashimo remarks on Sukuna’s form. Even if he signs with two hands, he still has two free; if he chants with one mouth, he can still breathe with the other. Despite his twisted body, his bodily processes are unaffected.
It is revealed that Sukuna used this form to wipe out the Sun and Moon squad and the Five Void Generals of the Northern Fujiwara clan, utilizing his two weapons, Kamutoke and Hiten. He had also destroyed the Angels and the Abe Clan’s Desshi Pacification Squad, the latter comprising the remnants of the Sugawara clan.
Sukuna employs his chanting in his Dismantle attack. The ensuing attack splits the ground in half, and Kashimo realizes that this is the death of Satoru Gojo. While he is amusing Sukuna, he is unable to avoid the following net of Cleave attacks that Sukuna sends his way.
Sukuna advises Kashimo that as the strongest, the only love they receive is through the hurdles of other people, and the only way to return that love is to treat your opponent with respect when you overcome them.
Sukuna confidently informs Kashimo that love is useless, and Kashimo’s death is hinted at. Hakari’s Domain’s barrier is breached, yet his look as he and Uraume tumble downward suggests he is not beaten.
Hiromi and Yuji Itadori jump down with them, Yuji’s forearms seemingly transformed into monster claws. Sukuna instantly begins mocking Yuji upon seeing him.
5. Where to Read Jujutsu Kaisen?
