As Higuruma and Yuji gracefully descend from the skies, Sukuna watches the duo with a mischievous grin, fully aware that the impending battle is about to unfold.
In the strategic planning session leading up to the epic clash between Satoru Gojo and Sukuna, the sorcerers, led by Atsuya Kusakabe, meticulously discussed their tactics. The primary focus was on orchestrating a distraction, with Fumihiko Takaba assigned to divert the attention of the formidable Kenjaku, giving Yuta Okkotsu the opportunity to strike him down once Gojo's defeat was confirmed. Yuta was reminded to swiftly return to Shinjuku after the crucial task.
The deliberation then shifted to the daunting prospect of facing Sukuna after Gojo's potential downfall. Hajime Kashimo proposed a simultaneous assault by all sorcerers, but Kusakabe wisely countered that sending individuals without a fighting chance, like the incapacitated Kasumi Miwa, would be futile.
Kusakabe introduced a speculative idea that sorcerers might employ cursed energy to resist the merging with Tengen, giving them a slim chance of survival even if Sukuna and Kenjaku achieved their nefarious goals. Recognizing Kenjaku's relentless pursuit of eliminating remaining players in the Culling Game, Kusakabe argued that the sorcerers could buy precious time if only Sukuna remained, even if just for a few days.
Unexpectedly, Noritoshi Kamo expressed his decision to flee overseas with his family rather than partake in the impending battle. Kusakabe acknowledged the scarcity of well-equipped individuals for the imminent conflict. Graciously, Yuji thanked Noritoshi for his teachings, a sentiment rooted in Choso's incapacitation.
The criteria for combatants were laid out by Kusakabe: proficiency in reverse cursed technique, a willingness to die, or indifference toward death. Those failing to meet these requisites were advised against participation, perhaps offering support instead.
Hiromi Higuruma then volunteered to face Sukuna after Kashimo, leveraging his unique cursed technique capable of "confiscating" Sukuna's powers. A bit offended by Higuruma's implication that he might lose, Kashimo's temper flared, prompting Kinji Hakari to intervene. Higuruma clarified that with the Executioner's Sword, he could challenge Sukuna if the King of Curses received the death penalty through his Deadly Sentencing.
The discussion delved into the complexities of prosecuting Sukuna. Yuji provided a comprehensive account of Sukuna's possessions, crimes, and the potential legal ramifications. Higuruma, drawing on his legal expertise, highlighted the difficulty of convicting Sukuna for specific crimes that would warrant the death penalty.
In the present, a dramatic turn of events unfolds as Mei Mei's crows execute a well-coordinated Bird Strike, diverting Sukuna's attention. Seizing the opportunity, Higuruma, now a sorcerer, descends with his enlarged gavel, aiming to strike down the King of Curses.
The unfolding battle reveals the intricacies of Higuruma's plan. Mei Mei's distraction allows Higuruma to land a formidable blow on Sukuna, setting the stage for Yuji to join the fray. As Sukuna attempts to retaliate, Higuruma's gavel restrains him, creating an opening for Yuji to unleash a powerful punch.
The climax approaches as Higuruma unveils his Domain Expansion: Deadly Sentencing, erecting a courtroom around the trio. It becomes apparent that Yuji's proposal for a third trial holds the key to their strategy. By retrying Yuji's case and including Sukuna as a co-defendant, they aim to prosecute Sukuna for the atrocities committed during the Shibuya massacre.
Within the confines of Higuruma's domain, the lawyer-turned-sorcerer presents his case, armed with evidence from Judgeman. He accuses Sukuna of being the true mastermind behind the Shibuya slaughter, unveiling a plan that could reshape the course of the battle against the King of Curses.
