Yuki Tsukumo & Choso vs. Kenjaku

Yuki Tsukumo & Choso vs. Kenjaku is a battle fought by special grade sorcerer, Yuki Tsukumo and the Cursed Womb: Death Painting, Choso against the curse user, Kenjaku. It occures when Kenjaku invades the Tombs of the Star in an attempt to seize Tengen.

Prologue
At 9:00 A.M. on November 9th, Tengen aided with Yuji and Megumi's group with their plan to combat the Culling Game. In return, Tengen asked for two sorcerers out of Yuki Tsukumo, Choso, and Yuta Okkotsu be chosen to protect them. Tengen explained to them that despite being immortal and protected by barriers, Kenjaku possesses the means to both undo the seals on the Tombs of the Star and absorb Tengen with Cursed Spirit Manipulation. Yuki and Choso volunteered to remain in the Tombs of the Star to eventually face the curse user while Yuta joined the other Jujutsu High students to enter the Culling Game.

Yuki, Choso, and Tengen strategized in anticipation of Kenjaku's arrival. Aware the battle will take place in the empty barriers above the Tombs of the Star, Tengen wants Kenjaku to feel comfortable there because he's a powerful barrier user and can manipulate the environment. The primary objective of their joint strategy is to get Kenjaku to expand his domain and take advantage of it burning out his cursed techniques. While Kenjaku's cursed techniques are unusable, it's the group's hope that Yuki can best him.

Choso volunteers to fight Kenjaku first to bring out his domain even if he has to sacrifice his life. However, Yuki and Tengen have a better idea. They suggest using Yuki to bait out Kenjaku's domain and then Tengen will dispel it by destroying the empty barrier, then he'll be vulnerable to a two-on-one attack. Chose still insists that he go alone first to draw out any of Kenjaku's hidden techniques because he doubts his father will use domain expansion if he knows someone else is going to leap into the fight. Even if Choso is defeated, he can use this to convince Kenjaku is in a one-on-one against Yuki, leaving him properly vulnerable to an ambush.

On November 16th at midnight, Kenjaku breaks into an empty barrier above the Tombs of the Star Corridor. Choso is there waiting for him and Kenjaku uses the opportunity to present one possible outcome of his master plan. He manipulates the empty barrier, changing it into a theater to give a visual explanation to Choso. Kenjaku shows Choso the citizens of Japan transforming into a conglomeration of cursed energy. When Choso asks why he's doing this, Kenjaku simply answers that it intrigues him and its fun. He even admits he would laugh if the conglomeration ended up being nothing more than a funny face. Irritated with his father's antics, Choso rejects Kenjaku's scheme and attacks him with Blood Manipulation.

Battle
Choso opens the fight by launching Piercing Blood straight at his father's face. Kenjaku not only avoids the blood beam by duucking undereath it, but he sends a cursed spirit to crawl up it at the same time. Choso waves his Piercing Blood to the right, exorcising the cursed spirit and tearing up the ground around Kenjaku with the beam. Kenjaku gleefully rides atop the debris and throws one of the broken stones at Choso. Believing his father is underestimating him, Choso prepares more condensed blood and expresses this. However, cursed spirits suddenly spawn from behind the projectile and catch Choso by surprise. In response, Choso throws the condensed blood at the cursed spirits and uses Supernova to exorcise them in one shot.

Kenjaku uses this as a diversion to close the distance with Choso. He grabs Choso's defending arm and then lands a left hook to his face. Choso slides back from getting hit, but he leaves compressed blood levitating next to Kenjaku. Choso activates Supernova again but Kenjaku uses another cursed spirit to defend himself. Choso asks Kenjaku what he has in mind for Yuji but the curse user reveals he doesn't have anything speific. Kenjaku believes Yuji is the eye of the storm for a new age, one where the cycle of curses will continue as long as he and Sukuna exist. Irritated, Choso launches another Piercing Blood at Kenjaku, which he easily avoids. Choso loudly declares that Kenjaku is the root of evil and not Yuji, but he's distracted and cursed spirits come up from underneath him to ensare his legs.

While Choso is immobilized, Kenjaku pummels him starting with a left hook that knocks the Death Painting to the ground. Then he steps on Choso's face and reveals that he knows this one-on-one fight is only a feeling out process to Yuki can get strategize. Kenjaku taunts Choso about his siblings and the Death Painting attempts to grab his ankle. However, Kenjaku summons cursed spirits from his foot and they ram into Choso, sending him flying. Then Kenjaku commands the swarm of curses to lift Choso up and slam him into the ground, severely injuring him. Kenjaku reveals he used weak cursed spirits reinforced with his cursed energy to best Choso. He boasts that special grade signifies a power Choso can't hope to match. Lying on the ground nearly defeated, Choso is ashamed for being unable to land a single hit. Despite this, Choso rejects Kenjaku's statements on Yuji and the Death Painting Wombs. Choso uses the image of his younger brothers to bring him strength. His body erupts with a wave of blood, surprising Kenjaku before Choso suddenly reaches his feat and asks his siblings to give him strength.
