Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 229: Release Date, Speculation, Read Online

Chapter 228 of Jujutsu Kaisen ended on another cliffhanger with another death flag in Gojo and Sukuna’s protracted conflict. Sukuna prevailed over Gojo by using Megumi’s Ten Shadows.

Given that Gojo is unlikely to die or be taken out of the game so early, this will be a way the author uses to explain Sukuna’s power over Mahoraga and the extent of his strength. Here are the latest updates.

1. Chapter 229 Raw Scans, Leaks

Chapter 229 starts with Gojo and Sukuna opening their domain again. Angel points out that now Sukuna can also regenerate his cursed technique using the reverse technique.

Kusakabe says Gojo has to once again destroy Sukuna’s domain to send him off balance, and the condition to do that seems favorable for Gojo.

If he hits Sukuna with Unlimited Void’s effect even for a few seconds, Sukuna will deal heavy damage. And if the Shrine collapses in under 3 minutes, then Gojo will win. As they expand their domains again, everyone notices that Gojo’s domain was expanded a bit earlier than Sukuna.

Gojo says this delay was because Sukuna went to heal his body. This delay is in microseconds but is enough to make a difference. As a result, Sukuna’s Malevolent Shrine collapses in under 3 minutes.

Sukuna then gets hit with Gojo’s unlimited void, but in defense, Sukuna then summons Mahoraga.

Gojo is caught by surprise but then gets ready to finish Mahoraga with a single hit and tries to use Cursed Technique Reversal, but Mahoraga destroys his domain from the inside. Gojo is in shock as he realizes that Mahoraga is already adapting to the void.

2. Chapter 229 Speculation

I. Gojo and Sukuna’s strengths

Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 229 will focus on how well Sukuna can control Megumi’s power and cause damage. Gojo seemed stressed at the end of the chapter and is seen with visible damage. Even though there are hints that Gojo might die, it seems less likely, at least right now.

The matter at hand is whether or not Gojo knows about Mahoraga’s capabilities. One thing is sure: if Sukuna could vanquish Mahoraga when Megumi wielded the Shikigami, Gojo should be able to do the same.

II. Switching Perspectives

The next chapter might switch the story’s perspective to what Megumi thinks and feels and if he knows he is fighting Gojo. Readers might also learn how deeply Megumi’s soul has been damaged.

Alternatively, it might focus on Kenjaku, who set out to kill other game players.

5. Chapter 228 Recap

Kusakabe described the disadvantages of decreasing one’s Domain. While this strategy increased output, it destabilized the structure due to the barrier’s mass-volume discrepancy. Gojo’s little Domain, on the other hand, lasted at least three minutes until being demolished by Sukuna.

While Sukuna destroyed Unlimited Void, Gojo was too seriously hurt for him to continue activating Malevolent Shrine. After witnesses pointed out that because they had both lost their Domains, neither could utilize their Cursed Techniques at the time.

On the other hand, Angel reminded them that Sukuna was intelligent enough to imitate any technique he saw once, which meant he could now utilize the Reversed Cursed technique to cure himself like Gojo.

Meanwhile, Gojo questioned why Sukuna kept choosing riskier possibilities instead of adopting the Ten Shadows Technique. Given his access to Megumi’s memories, the King of Curses should also be aware of Gojo’s knowledge of Mahoraga.

Mahoraga’s wheel was noticed spinning at the same time Gojo’s eyelids began to droop, and blood began to flow from his nose.
