Chapter 239

Foolish Survivor!! (バカサバイバー！！) is the two hundred and thirty-ninth chapter of Gege Akutami's Jujutsu Kaisen.

Summary
While the jujutsu sorcerers are focused on the showdown in Shinjuku with Sukuna, Kenjaku hunts down the remaining Culling Game players. Everything continues according to his plan until he runs into a comedian primed to steal the show.

Plot Details
In the Lake Gosho Colony in the Iwate Prefecture, an incarnated female Culling Game player worries about the new rules added to the battle royal. As she runs into the forest, she wonders out loud, calling Kenjaku cruel for giving incarnated players like her a second chance at life only to take it away. A slime-like curse then falls on her head, suffocating her.

Kenjaku appears, sitting on a nearby tree. He tells the player that he has no emotional attachment towards the incarnated players, comparing them to seasoning and water. The woman attacks him by twisting her hair into a drill and firing it towards him, though he disappears before the projectile hits, causing it to strike the tree.

The curse on the player's head then solidifies, weighing her down and causing her to drop to the ground. As she desperately tries to remove the curse, Kenjaku approaches her while commenting about how he detests needlessly waste nonetheless before flicking the curse with his finger, transferring a shockwave through it that kills the sorcerer.

Standing over the woman's corpse, Kenjaku talks to himself, explaining how he is able to track incarnated players through their cursed objects and awakened players through their cursed seals. He adds that the incarnated players were also reluctant to leave their colonies since adapting to society and getting hunted down were both unattractive options.

Kenjaku is then approached by Iori Hazenoki, who makes note that the woman is already dead and mockingly asks if Kenjaku talks to himself due to his longevity. Kenjaku explains that it is due to him not having many friends left and offers friendship to Hazenoki, who sarcastically accepts. Kenjaku then says that Hazenoki must fulfil two conditions to remain his friend: he must never bore him, and he must be his equal.
