Jujutsu Kaisen Manga Chapter 84

   

 Summary:

The cursed spirits put Pseudo-Geta's plan into action, trapping Satoru Gojo deep in the underground Tokyo subway and surrounding him with non-magicians who only serve to stand in his way. With the chaos suffocating his ability to fight, the mighty Satoru Gojo is finally forced to go on the defensive. That being said, the strongest jujutsu wizard doesn't go down that easily.

Plot:

Faced with three strange curses, Satoru stands confidently on the subway platform. Hanami's roots block all possible exits, but Satoru claims he wasn't going anywhere anyway. Satoru says that if they leave the curses, they will massacre everyone, and Jogo forcefully replies that they are happy to kill all those people anyway.

Everyone standing on the outer lanes of the platform is forced onto the tracks, surrounding the four jujutsu users with non-magicians. Satoru nonchalantly tells the people around him to get out of his way if they don't want to die. He realizes that the existence blocking has created a blind spot so he can't break through in case there are humans on the other side.

Jogo burns through several civilians as Hanami follows and Choso attacks with Slicing Exorcism. Both Hanami and Jogo attack Satoru and are stopped by his Infinity. They power up their cursed energy and activate the amplification domain, forcing Satoru to dodge. He believes they learned this technique from a curse user. Normal barriers are meant to trap the target in a box, but domain amplification metaphorically surrounds the target with water. Curses can neutralize Infinity with this method.

Before the Shibuya incident, Geto advised his allies that Satoru Gojo is best when he works alone. No matter how strong an ally someone else would stand in his way. Inferior non-wizards will limit his movements and render him unable to use his cursed techniques. In this situation, Satoru would be forced into the defensive and even his domain expansion would hurt them. The plan is to kill time and force Satoru to think about countermeasures for twenty minutes until Geto is ready with the Prison Realm.

Jogo rips someone's head off and reminds Satoru that he shouldn't have run away. Satoru admits he was surprised, and Jogo is pleased to hear a possible apology. However, Satoru refuses and reveals his Six Eyes, adding that he is only surprised because these foolish curses believed they could use their brains to defeat him. The strongest wizard shows Hanami and says since this is their third meeting, the grass is cut first.
