Chapter 205

## Chapter Guide

**Stars and Oil** (星 (ほし) と油 (あぶら) , *Hoshi to Abura*?) is the two hundredth and fifth chapter of Gege Akutami's *Jujutsu Kaisen*.

## Summary

A wild beast storms the battlefield as Yuki Tsukumo tags in for Choso! Even Kenjaku knows little about her abilities and finds out the hard way why she's befitting the special grade ranking.

## Plot Details

Yuki commends Choso for putting up a good fight and asks him to leave the rest to her. Choso falls through the ground of the empty barrier while Yuki stands off with Kenjaku. Yuki tells him Kenjaku that likes the rough type, but in the curse user's case, she'll need to beat him into shape. Kenjaku and Jujutsu Headquarters have next to no information on Yuki's cursed technique. He cautiously keeps her at a distance by summoning Ganesha, the same elephant-like cursed spirit he used against the U.S. military. Yuki can tell Ganesha isn't from Japan and Kenjaku explains that it is a special grade Asian divine curse.

Kenjaku invites Yuki to show what she's got and she accepts the challenge. Yuki's shikigami, Garuda, folds itself into a ball that she kicks clean through Ganesha's head, effortlessly exorcising the special grade curse. Kenjaku is shocked and Yuki quickly closes the distance while revealing that her technique manipulates **mass**. She delivers a punch so devastating that it strikes directly through Kenjaku's guard, breaking his arms and sending him flying so far that he crashes through the circular definition of the empty barrier.

Yuki reveals her innate technique is called Star Rage, which allows her to grant herself virtual mass. It also affects Garuda, transforming the shikigami into a cursed tool she can add mass to as well. Kenjaku heals himself with reverse cursed technique and concludes that Yuki's mass isn't permanent because it doesn't affect her speed. He doesn't believe any cursed spirits will help against her in this case and questions if he can even take down such a wild beast on his own.

Yuki analyzes Kenjaku's abilities as well. She observed Kenjaku manipulate gravity against Choso's last attack. Based on her observations, Yuki deduces the gravity ability is a third innate technique for Kenjaku in addition Cursed Spirit Manipulation and his body transfer technique. Any further techniques would overload Kenjaku's brain without outside storage, but Yuki is prepared in case he even has a fourth. At the same time, Kenjaku considers the possibility Yuki might possess an extension technique with high cursed energy output. Both fighters simultaneously acknowledge what a nuisance facing their opponent is.

Yuki plans on making Kenjaku open his domain so he'll be unable to use his cursed techniques afterward. Yuki is confident she can win even if she's in the same situation because she has Garuda. Yuki would like to drag out the fight and wear down Kenjaku before he opens his domain but he surprises her and does so immediately.

Kenjaku says Yuki should've already opened her domain and questions if his opponent lacks confidence in a domain clash. Kenjaku activates Domain Expansion: Womb Profusion and Yuki immediately calls out to Tengen, surprising the curse user. Tengen moves to put their plan into action but questions if there is enough time to do so.
