Sukuna unleashes Divine Flame
Sukuna combines Divine Flame with Malevolent Shrine in a devastating attack. The recap describes altered domain conditions and binding-vow mechanics as part of the move, but the central point is that the attack dramatically escalates the danger to Yuji and the others.
Choso dies protecting Yuji
Choso shields Yuji from the flames and is fatally burned. His sacrifice gives the battle its emotional climax and underscores his bond with Yuji.
Rank #2
Todo returns
Aoi Todo reappears with his left hand bandaged. The recap describes a rescue plan involving Mei Mei’s crows and Todo’s technique, and the chapter closes with Todo and Yuji facing Sukuna. His arrival sets up the next exchange rather than resolving the fight.
