Until now, the fight between Hakari and Kashimo was easily in favor of the former one. Each time Hakari hit the jackpot, he became immortal and full of unlimited Cursed Energy. So, it was hard for Kashimo to battle him in such a great state. But still, they somehow managed to survive his attacks and stay on the battlefield.

The previous chapter also focused on Kashimo's past and the reason why they are looking for Sukuna. Upon asking Kenjaku about the strongest sorcerer, they got to know about Sukuna. And since then, Kashimo has had a desire to fight him. But before Kashimo can continue his search for Sukuna again, they need to defeat Hakari first, who isn't a weak sorcerer either.

The first five pages of the new chapter only showcase the hand-to-hand combat, with no one taking any serious damage. There's no conversation between the two. As they both are fighting near the storage containers, Kashimo hits Hakari's face with a container's door. This severe attack peals off the skin from Hakari's face, but due to his incredible healing technique, he quickly recuperates his skin.

Fed up with Hakari's healing technique, Kashimo tries to kill him by sending multiple electric shocks to his body, with one fatal electric surge to his head. But his healing ability is even capable of baring such deadly attacks. Only a few seconds are left with Hakari to remain in his immortal form. They start hand-to-hand combat again, and Kashimo has to take some serious hits from Hakari due to his high speed.

Right after 4 minutes and 11 seconds are up, and Hakari gets out of his immortal mode, Hajime blows off Hakari's abdomen and says that "it's over." Kashimo seems to be attacking with his staff again and using it as an electric whip. Technically, Hakari cannot regenerate from the damage anymore. After the attack, a monologue says, "This is dangerous," and the Chibi girl also appears and says, "Death."

To Kashimo's surprise, Hakari unleashes another Domain Expansion even with a hole in his abdomen. But right now, there's no guarantee if this will work.
