[Jujutsu Kaisen] The Infinite Final Chapter (Satoru Gojo)

The Boundless Final Chapter

Satoru Gojo's Six Eyes were burning.

He could see the cracks at the edge of Sukuna's Domain, the limit of nineteen fingers. Black blood seeped from the body that belonged to Megumi Fushiguro, while Mahoraga's wheel of adaptation groaned with the metallic fatigue of a mechanism pushed beyond its limits.

"I guess this really is too much." Blue Cursed Energy gathered at Satoru Gojo's fingertips. Suddenly, Sukuna's fourth hand pierced through the Reverse Cursed Technique barrier. As drops of blood spattered across his blindfold, he remembered Yu Haibara's final words before his skull was crushed: "Gojo-senpai, there's something in the third tier of my cursed tool box..."

The instant his Domain, Unlimited Void, shattered, Satoru Gojo plunged his right hand into his own chest.

[Binding Vow: Reverse Fate]

As Sukuna's slash cut through Satoru Gojo's left shoulder, he was smiling.

"Three years of my lifespan for a guaranteed hit. That's a good deal, right?" His bloodstained teaching certificate drifted out of his torn shirt pocket. Its back was covered in dense equations carved with Reverse Cursed Technique: the Binding Vow he'd made with the remnants of Riko Amanai's Cursed Energy.

The instant Mahoraga's great axe came down, the flood of information from Unlimited Void suddenly reversed course. For the first time, Sukuna's pupils contracted. He saw the Star Plasma Vessel girl from fifteen years ago standing at the heart of the Domain, holding a birthday cake she'd never gotten to give.

"Domain Expansion: Unlimited Void, reverse input."

[The Moment of Shattering]

As Yuji Itadori's fist pierced Sukuna's chest, Satoru Gojo's Six Eyes were fading.

"Surprised?" He slumped onto the rubble, coughing up blood. "I used Hollow Purple to destroy Mahoraga's adaptation mechanism, used Unlimited Void to trap your soul, and then let this kid shatter your vessel..."

Sukuna's four arms began to carbonize. This body was, after all, no match for the original he'd honed over a thousand years. The balance of his twenty fingers had been broken by Yuji's body. Just as the slashes were about to tear Tokyo apart, Satoru Gojo's teaching certificate suddenly glowed. The core of the cursed corpse Masamichi Yaga had planted before his death had activated.

"Domain Expansion: Unlimited Void, self-detonation."

[The Last Light of the End]

When Yuta Okkotsu found Satoru Gojo, he was leaning against a support pillar at Shibuya Station, eating Kikufuku.

"Don't look at me like that." Satoru Gojo shook his legs, which were now nothing but bones. "Three years of my lifespan for Tokyo's safety. That's cheaper than I expected."

Kento Nanami and Yuji's shouts rang out in the distance as they cleaned up the last traces of Sukuna's Cursed Energy. Satoru Gojo's Six Eyes pierced the clouds and saw Suguru Geto's Cursed Spirits breaking down radioactive dust high above. It was a purification system Yuki Tsukumo had created using the Star Plasma Vessel data he'd provided.

"Are you leaving?" Yuta Okkotsu watched his teacher's body gradually turn transparent.

"I'm going to bring Geto a souvenir." Satoru Gojo crushed the last half of his strawberry daifuku. "That guy loves eating sweets with me."

As the first rays of dawn broke through the ruins of Shibuya, the strongest Jujutsu Sorcerer turned into a sky full of light. His teaching certificate drifted down beside Yuji Itadori's feet. On its back, a new line had appeared: [Substitute Teacher: Suguru Geto]

Atop the ruined Shibuya Station, a Cursed Spirit held a box of Kikufuku. The morning breeze swept past the place where Satoru Gojo had vanished, lifting half a bloodstained mission report: the Jujutsu Sorcerer Rights Reform Proposal that Yu Haibara had given his life to protect.
