Jujutsu Kaisen Manga Chapter 29

   

 Summary:

The battle against Mahita rages as Nanami joins her. At first, Mahito is convinced to deal with Nanami while keeping Yuji busy. However, Mahito underestimates their strength and is cornered. Inspired by the thrill of possibly dying, Mahito reaches the peak of his dark powers.

Plot:

Nanami arrives to join the fight against Mahita. He decides to leave Yuji's lecture for now and asks for a simple status update. Heartbroken, Yuji admits that he was unable to save Junpei or his mother. Nanami notices that Yuji is always thinking of others and explains, asking again how Yuji is doing. Yuji wipes his wounds like a few holes and tells Nanami that a lot of students and staff are unconscious in the gym.

Mahito expresses his happiness to see Nanami again. Nanami ignores him and notices that his nose is bleeding. He asks Yuji how it happened and reveals that he injured Mahito with a punch at the beginning of their fight. Nanami asks if Mahito could have touched Yuji, which he also confirms. Nanami bluntly admits as usual that his attacks have zero effect on Mahito, shocking Yuji.

Nanami believes that Mahito is either unable to use his ability on Yuji or has a reason not to kill him. Either way, Nanami sees it as an advantage. He tells Yuji that although he is unable to harm Mahita, he can still suppress his movements. The witcher duo agreed to work together to create openings for each other with a relentless attack.

Mahito creates an eye on his hand to watch Yuji while he focuses mainly on taking out Nanami. As the trading blows, Mahito shifts his body into a spiky form with several needles extending out. However, the shamans parry his attack and almost strike him before Mahito escapes by shrinking his body.

.

Tired of Yuji's brute strength, Mahito rebuts the transformed humans and orders them to kill the boy. Believing that Yuji will not kill the former people, Mahito uses the time to pin Nanami to the wall.

The mutants chase Yuji to the roof where they attack him. He doesn't want to fight back and is disheartened when one of the former people asks him to kill them. Mahito plans to further pin Nanami's disfigured body against Yuji, but these plans fail to materialize. He claims that Yuji is crazy because he is incapable of killing, but Nanami replies that Mahito is the stupid one.

Suddenly, Yuji appears from the roof and shows that he has mercy killed his opponents. Yuji lands on Mahito's enlarged hand and frees Nanami. Nanami quickly gets behind Mahito to strike, but the cursed spirit remains confident that he can counter. However, Yuji hits him with a powerful punch that is quickly followed by a second punch from Nanami.

On the brink of death, Mahito receives the inspiration he needs to reshape his soul and unleash his true power. He opens his mouth and the four hands form seals within it to activate the domain extension. He brings Nanami into his domain expansion: Self-Embodiment of Perfection. Nanami knows this is the worst case scenario and Mahito thanks him for helping to unleash this form.
