Summary of Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 256
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 256 begins with a flashback of Gojo Satoru explaining the Black Flash technique. Gojo explains why he has difficulty using Black Flash effectively and states that despite possessing the Six Eyes and incredible skills, Gojo cannot use it effectively due to fighting style, short fighting time and environmental factors. He emphasized the role of luck in portraying Black Lightning, contrasting his own struggle with the successful execution of it by others like Nanami.
Returning to the present, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 256 switches to the thoughts of Maki, Miguel, Yuji and Choso amid the fierce battle against Sukuna. Their thoughts turned to concern about Sukuna's potential power revival, though none of them let this worry stop the battle. Yuji quickly trapped Sukuna against the wall with the railing, trying to gain the upper hand, but Sukuna quickly dodged and counterattacked. Sukuna then threw a third Black Lightning at Maki, who noticed a dangerous surge of cursed energy in her slashes.
Choso launches a supernova attack against Sukuna, but is easily countered and attacked by Sukuna's fourth Black Lightning. By using his blood armor, Choso minimized the damage, allowing Yuji to take advantage of the opening and deliver a powerful punch to Sukuna. Meanwhile, Miguel urges Larue to retreat from the battle, but Larue remains steadfast in his belief to continue fighting.
Yuji uses his Piercing Blood technique to attack Sukuna, then prepares another attack. Sukuna senses the possibility of Yuji using Black Lightning, but before he can counterattack, Larue intervenes with his Cursed Technique, Cutie Honey! Looking at it this way!!, can control not only the physical body but also the consciousness as long as he has grabbed the opponent once. Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 256 ends when Yuji unleashes an epic Black Lightning against Sukuna, hitting Sukuna squarely in the chest. The narrator hints at Yuji's awakening, signaling the beginning of what we hope is the end of the battle.
