Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 259 was titled Inhuman Makyo Shinjuku Showdown, Part 31. The chapter commenced with a flashback where Choso was rushing to teach Itadori the advanced techniques of Blood Manipulation. Kamo stopped him and advised Itadori to only learn the basics as he would only need this cursed technique to heal his wounds.

Back to the current fight, Sukuna had activated his cursed technique and directed them towards Itadori. Choso shielded Itadori as he apologized to the protagonist for not being a good teacher. These two caught up and thanked each other, after which Choso was burned to death.

Itadori emerged from the Divine Flames and doubted himself as he had no more confidence left to fight Sukuna. The King of Curses had again started to kill one person after another, and things weren't looking good for the protagonist until Aoi Todo appeared with a wounded arm.

He had some sort of plan which he discussed with Mei Mei, but didn't tell Itadori as the sorcerers speculated the protagonist's memories could be linked to Sukuna through resonance. Choso gave Itadori the confidence he needed and these two rushed at the weakened King of Curses who could hardly use his cursed technique at this moment.

To no one's surprise, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 260 could feature a battle between Sukuna and the ultimate tag team of Itadori and Aoi Todo. Fans could get to see some Boogie-Woogie action as Aoi claimed he could still feel a heartbeat from his cursed technique.

Moreover, the plan Aoi mentioned in the previous chapter could also be revealed to the viewers as Aoi wanted to keep it a secret from the protagonist. It is speculated that Aoi could have something hidden inside his wounded hand, which he could pull out when he reaches close to Sukuna.
