Inhuman Makyo Shinjuku Showdown, Part 32 (
Summary
Armed with a modified Boogie Woogie, Todo joins in the fight with Yuji to bring down Sukuna.
Plot Details
Unwrapping the bandages, Todo reveals that he replaced his missing left hand with a vibraslap. Having changed the conditions for activating Boogie Woogie from a clap to the metal piece striking the box, Todo can perform around 50 swaps per second. Striking the instrument, the three sorcerers begin to rapidly swap positions as if on a roulette wheel.
As the vibraslap stops rattling, Sukuna and Yuji prepare to strike each other, only for Todo to hit the ball again and swap their positions, allowing him and Yuji to hit Sukuna safely. By entering a binding vow that limits the number of swaps per strike, Todo can select multiple people as Boogie Woogie's targets and expand its effective range. It is revealed that Todo adjusted his cursed technique in the Lake Gosho Colony with Yuta Okkotsu's help and was able to help everyone escape Sukuna's Malevolent Shrine.
Sukuna finds Todo extremely troublesome due to his self-centered fighting style, which makes him unpredictable. Todo swaps Sukuna's position so he is at the bottom of a crater before jumping into the crater and swapping himself with him. With Sukuna now airborne, Todo tries to kick him while he is unable to dodge, but Sukuna jumps midair and avoids the attack. Todo takes note of Sukuna's ability to use the air as his footing.
The battle rages on, during which Todo repeatedly uses Boogie Woogie to save Yuji from attacks while providing opportunities for him to strike Sukuna. Sukuna finds it impossible to adjust to the position swaps, especially since Todo can freely change the number of swaps per tap. However, he has learned that Yuji's concentration is at its highest when a position shift is imminent, which would allow him to read the timing.
As Sukuna and Yuji are about to punch each other, Sukuna believes Todo will feint and not swap Yuji, as he did during the climax of Yuji's showdown with Mahito. Suddenly, one of Mei Mei's crows appears behind Sukuna. Realizing he misread the situation and believing Todo planned to swap Yuji with the crow, Sukuna turns around and kicks the crow right after Todo strikes his vibraslap. However, no swap occurs, and Sukuna's mistake proves to be his undoing as Yuji punches him in the chest with Black Flash.
Digging his fingers into Sukuna's chest, a raging Yuji roars as he tries to claw out his heart. Making a hand sign, Sukuna prepares to cast his domain expansion again. Due to his high efficiency with cursed energy, even though his cursed energy is reduced to the same level as Yuta's, Sukuna could expand his domain as many times as he wishes once his burnt-out cursed technique is recovered. Just as he is about to use domain expansion, Sukuna suddenly sees Satoru Gojo walking through the smoke.

What do you think of the fact that this is the third time Todo is using jujutsu on this day but he has his arm wrapped? | |
