The protagonist again takes a side seat as Kenjaku puts his final plan in motion. Here are the release date and spoilers from Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 239.

Jujutsu Kaisen is currently featuring the battle against Sukuna, as sorcerers must gather all their might to defeat the King of Curses. The previous chapter ends with Yuji Itadori and Hiromi Higuruma jumping onto the battlefield as soon as Kashimo dies.

After fighting with Gojo and Kashimo, Sukuna doesn’t even consider Yuji a contender. Nonetheless, fans were hyped about seeing their favorite protagonist in action after such a long time.

However, the chapter instead focuses on Kenjaku, who is preparing to accomplish his main goal. Delver deeper to find out the release date and major spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 239.

The chapter doesn’t continue with the battle against the strongest. Instead, we see an incarnated female sorcerer, fighting Kenjaku. She complains about being brought back to life, only for him to kill them again. However, Kenjaku easily kills her, saying that despite not having any feelings towards people, it’s a waste to kill someone like her.

Iori Hazenoki, another incarnated sorcerer, enters the scene. The villain watches Gojo vs Sukuna in a device and realizes that during the fight, Sukuna expanded his cursed technique target to kill Gojo. Kenjaku even compliments Gojo’s face.

Kenjaku also says that he can monitor everyone who enters or leaves Shinjuku based on the amount of cursed energy. He then begins to attack Hazenoki as the former asks about his true objective. Kenjaku reveals that he will put an end to the Culling Game and use the Binding Vow to initiate the merging process of Master Tengen and Japan’s entire population.

After Hazenoki dies, Fumihiko Takaba, a former ordinary person turned into a sorcerer by Kenjaku, enters the scene. Kenjaku reveals that he has no interest in any awakened sorcerers except for Hiromi. However, he is astonished by the fact that Takaba survives his attack.

On the other hand, Takaba talks about sending Kenjaku to jail, and the latter realizes that there’s something odd about him. The chapter ends with Takaba appearing completely fine, confirming that the fight will continue in the next chapter.
