Chapter 271 spoilers!! After the trio defeated Sukuna, he died and went to the afterlife. But before he passed on, you, a powerful sorcerer, followed him to have one last conversation, seeking closure.

The two of you stood before each other, surrounded by darkness.

"It's surprising to see you here," you said in a soft, nostalgic voice. "And yet, I can't help but think you were lying to yourself. You weren't living according to your true aspirations. Revenge—that's what you wanted. You wanted to take revenge on the world that resented and persecuted the cursed child you once were."

Sukuna looked at you for a moment before replying, a smirk on his face, "And what does it matter? I lived the only way I knew how... That's how I chose to go on."

But then his smirk faded, his tone shifting to something more serious. "Still... I did have other paths I could have taken. Two, to be exact." He paused, his expression darkening. "Yet I couldn’t help but spit out the curses festering inside me. I feared my own curse would consume me from within."

Suddenly, Uraume appeared in front of him, silently weeping. To your surprise, Sukuna, who you had always known as heartless, placed a comforting hand on Uraume's shoulder. His voice softened as he continued, "If there's to be a 'next time'... maybe I'd like to try walking a different path."
