Jujutsu Kaisen is at its most crucial moment as Yuji Itadori fights against the King of Curses Sukuna, along with the help of Ino, Choso, and Higuruma. The fight is probably the most crucial in the series as it features the bout between the protagonists and the main antagonist of the series.
Fans have been enjoying the fight between the characters and as the series moves towards the next chapter, fans have been eagerly waiting for chapter 247 as according to the spoilers, the chapter will probably bring an end to the story of Hiromi Higuruma, one of the strongest characters during the Culling games arc.
However, the spoilers have revealed a new instance that shows Yuji Itadori using the Kamo family’s hereditary cursed technique, blood manipulation against the King of the Curses, Sukuna. This is new information, however, it has not been officially confirmed by the creators and will only be known after the official release of Chapter 247.
Spoilers of Chapter 247 Bring New Revelations
Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 247 is expected to pick up where the previous one left off, providing fans with a clear picture of what will happen in the fight between Hiromi Higuruma and the King of the Curses. The official translation will appear in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump issue 6/7 on Saturday, January 6, 2024, at midnight JST.
As the chapter opens, Sukuna compares the lawyer to himself and expresses his admiration for Higuruma’s potential. He addresses Higuruma by name, displaying the same dignity he showed Jogo and Gojo. Subsequently, he fights Higuruma hand-to-hand, clearly outmatching him and nearly throwing him off.
However, suddenly a pierced blood technique is directed towards Sukuna and as he gets distracted from it, Yuji emerges from behind Sukuna and discovers that Higuruma has been sliced in half. Thus marking the end of Hiromi Higuruma. This was surely a sad point for the character and the series, but much focus was pointed out on the strange blood manipulation technique that came out of nowhere. Many believe that the technique was used by Yuji Itadori.
Yuji Itadori Uses Blood Manipulation Piercing Blood Technique
Piercing Blood is a Blood Manipulation attack. Blood is fired from the fingertips by the user with a clap of hands after using Convergence to compress and condense their blood to the maximum extent. This blood can travel at the speed of sound because it is now strengthened by cursed energy.
In the spoilers of Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 247, the piercing blood technique that distracted Sukuna came out of nowhere. Many thought that it was used by Choso, but Choso was already defeated by Sukuna. Although it’s not explicitly shown in the spoilers who fired the technique, many fans believe that it was Yuji who attacked Sukuna with Piercing Blood.
This is because, in one of the previous chapters, it was shown indirectly that Yuji would learn a technique from Kamo and Choso, and although it was not explicitly shown which technique they were talking about, it is bound to be blood manipulation as it is the innate technique of the Kamo family. Although this is not confirmed, there is no one else on the battlefield who can use Piercing blood, thus pointing it toward Yuji Itadori.
