Jujutsu Kaisen: Why Yuji Itadori Left the Wizards Explained

Yuji Itadori disappeared, leaving the witcher behind. Here's why in JJK Modulo.

In the fight against Sukuna, Yuji Itadori unlocked his latent potential in this battlebut a lot of time has passed since then, and since then he has only grown stronger. Right now in Jujutsu Kaisen moduleyou can say Yuji far surpassed the level of people like Sukuna. 69 years into the future, Yuji mastered Sukun's own techniquesand he is truly a wizard who deserves to be called the new strongest. Yuji has only shown a bit of his power so far, as the real showcase will be against Dabur, who will evolve very soon in JJK Modulo.

Ryomen Sukuna was at the pinnacle of Jujutsu wizardry

  • Sukuna absorbed his Twin and gained vast reserves of energy

  • Sukuna was born with the perfect body for Jujutsu sorcery

  • Sukun's shrine was an overpowered cursed technique

Sukuna was known in Jujutsu Kaisen as the King of Curses, and this title was not given without reason. After all, it could be said that way Ryomen Sukuna had truly been at the pinnacle of wizardry throughout his life. Much of Sukun's power is due to the circumstances surrounding his birth. As fans know, Sukuna has the largest reserves of cursed energy in the entire serieseven bigger than the likes of Yuta Okkotsu or Gojo Satoru. This is due to Sukuna absorbing his twin in the wombwhich gave him the cursed energy reserves of two people.

In addition, Sukuna was also born with what could be described as the perfect body for performing Jujutsu spells. Sukuna was born with two mouths and four arms. This allows Sukhun to use incantations and hand signs like no other. Even in Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo, Gege Akutami portrayed Sukuna as the scariest person in a doodle based on Maru's imagination.

In addition, Sukuna was also born with one of the most overpowered cursed techniques in Jujutsu Kaisen. Sukun's main cursed technique is known as the shrine. This technique allowed him to cut through almost anything in his path with techniques like Cleave and Dismantle. Sukuna could unleash devastating slashes and cataclysmic flames on his enemies. Overall, Sukun's technique was extremely powerful and his domain expansion even more so.

For a while, the only character that fans considered on par with Sukuna was Gojo Satoru. While their power levels are debatable, it's clear that in the end, Sukuna was the one who came out on top in their battle to be the strongest. Yet in the same raid, a wizard has risen to defeat Sukun himself, and that character is Sukun's perfect ship, Yuji Itadori.

Yuji is back and stronger than ever with his latest upgrade in the JJK Modulo.

The showdown against Sukuna in Shinjuku unlocked Yuji's true potential as a vessel of the formerand he was able to use Sukun's own techniques against himespecially the Shrine, but with its own twist. Instead of simple slashes, Yuji can use his attacks like a scissor knife. He can even combine this power with his ability to hit souls to create Soul Dismantles. Yuji's soul-slicing attack is what finally kills Sukuna, followed by Black Flash.

The Battle of Sukun definitely helped Yuji grow, but now in the Module, after 68 years, he's gotten even stronger. Based on his portrayal in JJK Modulo Chapter 20, he is even stronger than Sukuna at this point.

  • Yuji's true power will be shown against Dabura

Yuji Itadori was an intrepid figure in JJK for a while who didn't stand out much in a series dominated by Gojo and Sukuna. But that all changed after the fateful battle against Sukuna. 68 years into the future, Yuji has evolved into a monster.

Fans who wondered how strong Yuji would grow after the Sukun battle in JJK Modulo finally got their answer in Chapters 19 and 20 of the manga. IN JJK Modulo Chapter 19, Yuji Itadori finally made his grand comeback by immediately using his Blood Manipulation technique. quite clearly Over the years, Yuji Itadori has become the greatest blood manipulation user of all timewho is able to use multiple Piercing Blood arrows at a completely different level.

Furthermore, Yuji's feats continued into JJK Modulo Chapter 20. Indeed, Yuji was seen using his iconic Black Flash. Black flashes usually can't be activated consciously, but Yuji actually mastered them. Yuji was already very skilled with Black Flashes in his Sukuna battle, but in the Modulo timeline he completely mastered them.

Yuji Itadori is a thing of the past. He doesn't matter anymore. — Yuji, JJK Modulo Chapter 20

Yuji also used Sukuna's most iconic attack, which is Dismantle. But in his case, this Dismantle was on a whole new level. Yuji's single Dismantle shot matched the power of Hollow Purple and Divine Flame. With these feats, Yuji surpassed even Sukuna's level in Modulo.

What fans have seen so far is just a hint of Yuji's true power. To show his full power, Yuji will have to go against Dabura. Dabura is arguably an even bigger threat than he faced in the original series. Yuji vs Dabura will be a new battle of the strongest and fans can't wait to finally get into battle. Dabury's attacks of light and darkness, as well as the killing intent technique, will not be easy to counter.

Yuji must rise as humanity's last hope using blood manipulation, black flashes, and the shrine, and maybe even show off his newly developed domain expansion power. The domain expansion showdown, like the Gojo vs Sukuna battle, may unfold once Dabura learns how to activate it. This upcoming battle could be where Yuji Itadori meets his end and realizes his ultimate goal of dying surrounded by his loved ones – something he has so far failed to realize.
