Ever since the Shibuya Incident and Gojo killing 1000 transfigured curses but not saving around 500 people during the event, he was punished by the Higher Ups. The Higher Ups have sealed Satoru Gojo. Yuta had been seeking to convince the Higher Ups to unseal Gojo. He rarely goes to the Higher Ups due to his low-respect for them but because of this situation, he went straight to them. Yuta’s expression remained deadpan as he explained to the Higher Ups he wanted mercy upon his mentor. Maki and Inumaki agreed with Yuta on this, Gojo deserved to be freed.

Higher Up #1: “ You are playing with fire for a man full of shame!”

They were against freeing Satoru Gojo but another Higher Up had an idea. A task he doesn’t believe Yuta can complete. A few Higher Ups were thinking the same thing (there’s 9 Higher Ups in total). Yuta’s expression doesn’t falter as they proceeded.

Higher Up #3: “But if he's worth the risk of going under, why not make it a game?”

Higher Up #2: “Convince each of them that he ought be released, and we’ll unseal him.”

Yuta: “Who’s ‘them’?”

He asked the question that Maki and Inumaki, whose standing behind him also had. Yuta puts a hand on his hip. Yuji, Megumi, Nobara, and Panda revealed themselves, the 4 that weren’t siding with Gojo on this. Yuta, Maki, and Inumaki immediately recognized them.

Higher Up #6: “Panda, Megumi Fushiguro, Yuji Itadori, and Nobara Kugisaki… What do you say?”

Panda: “Alright!”

Megumi: “Very well…”

Yuji: “Okay!”

Nobara: “Fine.”

The Higher Ups had gestured to each one of them as they introduced their names despite Yuta, Maki, and Inumaki already knowing who they all are due to having the same teacher. Satoru Gojo. Maki and Inumaki stayed quiet as they’re about to watch Yuta try to convince his classmates that Gojo shall be released from the seal. Yuta sighed and looked at the 4.

Yuta: “Bring it.”

This was a task the Higher Ups believe Yuta couldn’t complete.
