This chapter starts with Itadori explaining Higuruma’s life and how he came this far. He mentions how Higuruma easily got through law school, and everyone considered him a genius.
Itadori also says what stands out about Higuruma is his talent as a sorcerer. Higuruma analyzed the basics of the curse technique that came to him by default. He worked backward from the techniques to grasp what he had acquired.
Within twelve days of awakening his cursed technique, he reached the level of a first-grade sorcerer. He even managed to defeat many cursed spirits and players during the culling games formation. All this explaining happens while Itadori tries to evade Higuruma’s attacks.
Higuruma questions Itadori’s inability[8] to use cursed energy and mentions the effects of confiscation. Higuruma catches Itadori with the judge’s gavel and gets him off guard. Higuruma is wondering how Itadori is still standing against him and is sure it’s his raw strength.
Thinking a sorcerer cannot use techniques with weak cursed energy control, he plans to finish Itadori quickly. Trying not to have any slip-ups, Higuruma uses his full might and attacks Itadori. With the fight going back and forth, he crushes Itadori with the harmer.
To Higuruma’s surprise, Itadori is still holding on. Itadori figures out a way to get his cursed energy back from being in trouble. Understanding Higuruma’s cursed technique involves trials, he requests for a redo.

His judgment calls for confiscation and the death penalty.
