Episode 19: Black Flash

Are you all right, Inumaki-senpai?

Salmon.

Here it comes!

Stop.

Convergence!

Piercing Blood!

He wounded it?

So he wasn't serious at all when he fought me, then?

Hurry! He's just gonna heal right away!

Inumaki will stop it,

we'll attack, and then we'll get away from it.

Then we repeat that as we try to get outside this veil

and rejoin the principal and the others.

But there's no telling when the current balance will fall apart.

His cursed speech isn't affecting it much anyway,

and we're not getting a chance to contact the teachers.

If it figures out how to deal with his cursed speech, we're finished.

Hurry!

We don't know what the cursed spirit's after.

There's a chance the principal and

the other sorcerers stationed at Jujutsu Tech haven't taken action.

I'd like to quickly rejoin Toudou,

or at the very least, Miwa, but...

Inumaki-senpai will stop it.

Don't worry! Just go!

St—

He's the one hitting his limit first?!

Are you alive, Kamo-san?

He wasn't using powerful words, but it still destroyed his throat.

It's just that much stronger!

Mustard leaf.

Inumaki-senpai...

That's enough!

Blast away!

You can't cut me with that dull blade.

Its eye trees are more fragile than the rest!

Now this sword isn't so bad.

I have something even better.

This one feels disgusting to use, though.

"Cursed tools" refers to weapons imbued with curses.

Based on their force and effects,

they're divided into grades one through four, just like sorcerers.

The higher a cursed tool's grade,

the greater the advantage it provides in jujutsu combat.

Megumi, make absolutely sure you don't lose that.

I won't lose it.

If you sold it, you'd get at least five billion for it.

Huh?

Special-grade cursed tool:

Playful Cloud!

Indeed, that is a good weapon.

Demon Dog...

With the exception of my expanded technique, Bottomless Well,

if any of my ten shikigami are completely destroyed,

I can never manifest them again.

However, the power and techniques of the destroyed shikigami

are passed on to the others.

...Totality!

It's fast.

It's trying to take off my wounded arm first?

The sorcerer boy is in the forest...

The boy's sword!

Maki-san!

Please don't ever make me use that three-section staff again!

It's too hard to use!

It's handy once you get used—

Megumi!

Maki-san!

Damn it! All because I screwed up!

My strike was aimed for your heart.

What a wonderful reaction.

Jujutsu sorcerers are extraordinarily compassionate.

An opening is always created when their ally is injured.

It's destroyed?!

No, Megumi released the technique!

You shouldn't use cursed techniques anymore.

The bud embedded in you loves cursed energy.

The more you use techniques, the deeper its roots will extend into your body.

How kind of you to warn me.

You're planning to kill us anyway, though.

Apparently, it works faster when I explain it.

You move well.

But you're missing the edge you had earlier.

Wring out that cursed energy,

even if it rips my stomach open!

I'm not like everyone else.

I choose who I protect.

I shoulder the least responsibility!

Therefore...

I'm not allowed to fall before anyone else!

Megumi, stop!

Our job is done.

It's time to tag out.

You good to go, my friend?

Yeah!

JUJUTSU KAISEN

So heavy...

I can't believe these two were beaten this badly.

We're counting on you, Toudou-kun.

Your strength is the one thing you've got going for you.

Stop, Itadori!

That's not something we can han—

Panda.

Yeah?

Take those two and exit the veil.

According to Nishimiya, this is an anti-Gojou Satoru veil,

so we can come and go without issue.

Wait! Even you can't—

Fushiguro.

It's okay.

Please.

Looks like you've realized it.

Nobody is allowed to touch those who have started growing wings.

And that's exactly where Itadori stands right now.

If you die again, I'll kill you myself!

Okay, let's go.

Pandash!

Guess I can't afford to die now.

I won't lift a finger to help,

Itadori.

Not until you land a Black Flash.

If you can't land a Black Flash,

then I'll just watch you die,

no matter what happens to you.

Got it!

Sukuna's vessel and... Who is that man?

He has a certain presence,

but the amount of cursed energy he possesses

is most definitely less than mine.

However, he has that mysterious brazenness.

He must have quite the technique,

since I couldn't move carelessly before him.

And what is this "Black Flash"?

So, how will they attack?

You can talk?

There's something I want to ask you.

Are you allied with

a humanoid cursed spirit who has a patchwork face?

And if I say I am?

He didn't carelessly close the distance.

I commend him for that.

He's fast!

He has more explosive power than the earlier girl!

However, its intensity is poor.

Its torso's wide open!

It's letting its guard down because I held back.

I can land it now!

Black Flash!

Damn it!

My friend.

Anger is an important trigger for sorcerers.

Sometimes they can be taken down

purely because they accidentally angered their foe.

And the opposite is also true.

Sometimes they lose because their own anger disrupts their cursed energy,

so they can't exercise their abilities.

Your friend has been wounded,

and worse yet, they've rained on your honeymoon with me, your best friend,

so I can really understand why you'd be boiling with rage.

But that rage is too much for you.

Put it away for now.

Are they fighting each other?

Are those stray thoughts gone now?

Yeah, not a single one left.

Thank you so much, best friend!

Black Flash.

It's a distortion of space born from the impact of cursed energy

delivered within a trillionth of a second of a blow.

It delivers 2.5 times the force of a normal strike.

There are no sorcerers who can consistently use Black Flash.

However...

Between those who have experienced Black Flash and those who have not,

their distance from the core of cursed energy is like that of Heaven from Earth.

What tremendous concentration...

The instant cursed energy impacts within a trillionth of a second of a blow,

space is distorted...

and cursed energy flashes black.

Black Flash!

Wha—

He's grown.

JUJUTSU KAISEN

JUJUTSU KAISEN

He's grown.

That was... Black Flash?

What?

This is my cursed energy, right?

Now you understand the taste of cursed energy.

Up until now,

you've just been throwing an ingredient you've never tasted before

into a pot and boiling it without knowing why.

But after experiencing Black Flash

and understanding the taste of your ingredient, your cursed energy,

you stand on a completely different level as a chef than you did three seconds ago.

Congratulations, brother.

You can become strong.

I had heard that Sukuna's vessel was immature as a sorcerer,

but he and this mysterious man...

Something about them is different from the other masses.

It can heal?!

A cursed spirit's body is made up of cursed energy.

Unlike us, they don't need any advanced reversed cursed technique to heal.

An injury like that is nothing to a special-grade.

But there's no doubt that it shaves away their cursed energy,

and if you crush their head, it's game-set.

Now, shall we get cooking?

It would seem that

I should take you two somewhat seriously.

What a wide range of attack!

Don't falter!

That range means its force and speed are weaker!

That hit hard!

Their blows aren't as bad as that flashy black one before,

but each one possesses enough force to steadily damage me!

Toudou! Let's match our timing better!

Yeah!

Our footing!

I messed up!

I thought it was passing cursed energy through real objects

to manipulate that much mass!

But it's all the embodiment— the manifestation of its cursed energy!

That's a special-grade for you!

Learn how great the land is!

Attacking while we fall? That's brutal!

However...

Brother!

They dodged that?!

But what...

What is this feeling?!

You know, Hanami, you should be more honest.

I don't believe I'm faking anything.

I don't mean to call you a liar.

I know why you're fighting.

But it's the process.

You should enjoy the battles, the present, much more.

Do you enjoy them?

Well, yeah.

Though...

It was only recently that the joy and pleasure I feel in battle became my motive.

Before I knew it, I was tricking, deceiving, and murdering,

and before I knew it, I felt fulfilled.

Just as humans eat, sleep, and screw, I think that's a curse's instinct.

We may have gained reason,

but that doesn't justify going against our instincts.

The soul is a blend of instinct and reason.

No one can say anything about an individual's ratio.

But your soul's a little constrained.

Hanami, you're actually...

much stronger, aren't you?

Ow...

Toudou!

I'm fine!

It just expended so much cursed energy!

Now's our chance to strike!

You monster!

Mahito, right now...

I'm enjoying a fight!

You okay, brother?!

No problemo!

Excellent!

Then it's time to unleash my technique!

Juju Stroll

Coat rack!

Going to make a great coat rack!

Hey, what kind of coat rack would Gojou Satoru be?

Probably a standing coat rack.

I'd use his hip bone with the sacral bone and coccyx as the base for the stand,

then rework his femurs and use them to stabilize it.

I'd use his spine's lumbar vertebrae, thoracic vertebrae,

and up to the third cervical vertebrae.

To give it more height... let's see... Ancient camphor wood would be good.

I could alternate ancient camphor replicas with the bones to accentuate the height.

Then I'd extend the spinous process

and transverse process based on the overall balance to create the hangers.

I'd do that by grafting on more ancient camphor.

Depending on the coloring, it could be good to cover the skull with tanned hide.

Nice! Very nice!

I'll be able to make a great coat rack!

No one needs it.
