Chapter 177: Sukuna’s Fall

Chapter 177: Chapter 177: Sukuna's Fall

Seeing that Mahoraga's strength had finally stopped growing, Sukuna stepped out from the shadows.

He laughed arrogantly,

"Hahaha! I can't believe you managed to push Mahoraga to its limits. Truly incredible.

I admit, you are strong, but you've already lost this battle!"

Under Sukuna's control, Mahoraga's body turned into shadows and fused with the Wheel. Sukuna then placed the Wheel behind his own head, causing his cursed energy to grow exponentially.

Feeling the overwhelming power coursing through him, Sukuna spread his arms wide, standing in midair as he laughed maniacally,

"This power... this power!

Such immense strength, combined with my cursed techniques—I'm truly invincible now!

Alex, your time has come!"

With the fusion complete, Sukuna's power skyrocketed, surpassing even Mahoraga's peak and ascending to god-like levels.

Fushiguro Megumi's body, under the immense cursed energy, began to mutate. Around his original face, a second face started to grow, and another pair of arms emerged beneath his first set. Sukuna had now transformed into the legendary figure of lore: a four-eyed, four-armed creature.

Bringing all four hands together, Sukuna formed a complex hand seal and bellowed: "Domain Expansion—Malevolent Shrine!"

Unlike his original domain, which spanned only a few hundred meters, this domain now enveloped the entirety of Tokyo and extended for hundreds of kilometers beyond.

Everyone within the domain felt a suffocating dread, as though invisible blades were hovering above their heads, ready to strike at any moment.

"Hahahahahahaha!" Sukuna's laughter echoed wildly as he gazed down at Alex from the sky, exuding supreme arrogance.

"I've become a god! It's time for you, a fake celestial, to meet your end!"

With countless eyes fixed on him, Sukuna casually waved a hand. A spatial slash, sharp enough to sever worlds, was effortlessly unleashed, hurtling toward Alex with blinding speed.

The slash moved so fast that even Satoru Gojo couldn't react. Moreover, it carried a special cursed energy composition—an evolution designed by Mahoraga to bypass Gojo's Infinity, rendering it completely defenseless.

In the blink of an eye, the spatial slash tore through the Infinity and closed in on Alex. Sukuna's grin grew even more twisted, for once Alex was dead, Sukuna would truly reign as the ultimate, undefeatable being.

The spatial slash struck Alex, carving a massive trench through the streets, slicing through buildings, and even splitting the sky and earth in two.

The attack was so devastating that, had most of its power not been concentrated on Alex, the entirety of Tokyo's buildings taller than three meters would have been severed in half.

But to everyone's shock, despite the ferocity of the attack, Alex remained unharmed.

Amid the deep trench created by the spatial slash, there was a small, untouched area—an anomaly in the otherwise flawless destruction.

At the center of that undamaged space stood Alex.

His right hand was casually extended in front of him, effortlessly stopping an attack powerful enough to tear the world apart.

Releasing a slight burst of energy, Alex dispelled the dust around him, and then looked mockingly at Sukuna, who was hovering in the sky.

With a smirk, Alex spoke a line he had prepared long ago during his time in the Marvel Universe:

"Sukuna?

The King of Curses?

How laughable!"

"You're just a weakling from a world without me. When we share the same world, you're nothing but a clown!"

Seeing Alex block his full-powered attack with only his physical body, Sukuna was in utter disbelief.

"This is impossible! Your power was only on par with Mahoraga earlier!

But now my power has doubled compared to Mahoraga's peak. How can you block my spatial slash with just one hand?!"

Alex didn't respond. Instead, he released the seals he had placed on himself. His cursed energy instantly transformed into a far higher-level energy—a power nearing the limits of a single universe.

Even without activating his "Third Tree · Abyss" state, Alex's unleashed strength now pushed close to the pinnacle of single-universe-level power.

The energy radiating from his body warped and shattered the surrounding space. Sukuna immediately noticed his own control over space rapidly diminishing, until he could no longer manipulate it at all.

Realizing the dire situation, Sukuna's confidence crumbled. Despair crept into his voice as he stammered,

"How is this possible? How can you possess such overwhelming power?"

Even though Gojo didn't entirely believe Alex could rewrite the fundamental rules of reality, the mere possibility terrified him.

If Alex truly altered the basic mathematical logic of the universe, it wouldn't just destroy Earth—the entire world would collapse under the unending surge of energy.

Alex, noticing Gojo's panic, waved a hand dismissively. "Relax, I've got this under control. I won't let the universe get destroyed."

Gojo: "..."

You don't look like you have this under control. And honestly, if humanity is wiped out, what difference does it make if the universe survives?

At that moment, Gojo Satoru tried to approach Alex to stop him, but it was already too late.

Suddenly, everyone present found themselves in a new world.

Although the surroundings seemed identical, there was a strange unfamiliarity—as if the world they were seeing was merely a reflection in a mirror.

Alex had pulled everyone into a mirrored dimension that he had just created. Smiling down at Sukuna, he said, "Well then, let's make the explosion a bit more intense, shall we?"

In an instant, the fundamental rules of the mirrored dimension were altered.

The equation 1+1=2 was rewritten to 1+1=3.

It began with a single point, which rapidly expanded, engulfing Sukuna in moments.

At first, Sukuna managed to barely withstand the chaotic energy, but as the energy exponentially multiplied, he could no longer hold out. Within seconds, he was consumed entirely by the boundless energy, leaving not even a single cell intact.

The energy continued to erupt endlessly. Under Alex's protection, the sorcerers from Jujutsu High could clearly see the terrifying vortex of destruction.

First, Earth was completely annihilated. Then the entire solar system. Soon, even galaxies far beyond their vision were snuffed out, their stars vanishing one by one.

Within a minute, the Milky Way ceased to exist.

Within five minutes, nothing remained in the mirrored dimension.

As the universe adapted to the new rule, 1+1=3, the fabric of existence unraveled entirely. All that was left was an infinite vortex of chaotic energy that flowed through the void, destroying any possibility of creation.

Perhaps, after countless eons, life based on the new rule might arise, but everything that once existed had already been obliterated.

The sorcerers from Jujutsu High stood frozen, staring at the nothingness before them. In this mirrored universe, there was nothing left—no stars, no planets—only the small group under Alex's protection.

When they finally came to their senses, Yuji Itadori roared at Alex in rage: "Alex, what have you done?! You've destroyed the entire universe! You're even more evil than Sukuna!"

Alex slapped Yuji across the face, snapping him back to reality. Once Yuji calmed down, Alex spoke leisurely: "Don't be so dramatic. I'm a good guy. And who told you I destroyed the universe? What you're seeing now is just a mirrored world I created.

This mirror dimension is nothing but a reflection of the original universe. Everything here, except for you and me, is just a copy."

"Ah, I see!" Yuji exclaimed, slamming a fist into his palm in realization. But then, he quickly came back to his senses and prepared to shout at Alex again—only to remember the slap earlier. Swallowing his anger, he timidly asked: "But wait... Sukuna was using Megumi's body. Now that you've killed Sukuna, doesn't that mean Megumi died with him? What about Megumi?"

Alex smacked his own forehead. "Thanks for reminding me—I almost forgot. Alright, come on out, Megumi!"

With a wave of his hand, Alex rewound the time and space where Sukuna had been destroyed. Sukuna's form reappeared, his confusion evident as he blinked and looked around.

Before Sukuna could react, Alex appeared in front of him, reached into Megumi's body, and forcibly extracted Sukuna's essence. Then, with a flick of his hand, he obliterated it entirely.

Sukuna was dead. Then alive again. And now, dead once more.

Megumi awoke moments later, dazed and unaware of what had just happened. Yuji quickly filled him in.

Megumi, like everyone else, stared at Alex and the shattered universe around them in utter disbelief. The question arose in his heart:

"Is this something a human can even do? Are you truly a god?"

Alex stroked his chin thoughtfully before nodding. "To you, I might as well be. You could even call me God if you'd like."

Gojo Satoru suddenly seemed to realize something and asked nervously: "So... you're not really my great-great-grandfather, aren't you?"

Alex laughed. "Of course not. The evidence that says I am? All fabricated by me when I altered reality. But hey, I'm still fine with being your ancestor in spirit."

Gojo: "...No thanks."

With that, Alex returned the Jujutsu High sorcerers to their original universe.
