Narrator-kun: Entering an awakened state after his second Black Flash, Gojo Satoru constructed a special pathway for the Reverse Cursed Technique
Narrator-kun: It recovered the lost output of the Reverse Cursed Technique by spreading its use and stress onto the brain's component.
Blurb: Both sides voltage shoots up!!
Chapter 258 - Inhuman Hellscape Shinjuku Showdown 30
Narrator-kun: In that same way, the King of Curses Ryomen Sukuna regenerated all his arms and trampled over the Kousen sorcerers.
Narrator-kun: Is what should have happened.
Narrator-kun: Itadori Yuji struck into the boundary between Fushiguro Megumi and Ryomen Sukuna's souls seven times with the Black Flash.
Narrator-kun: Due to this, Ryomen Sukuna lost the opportunity to restore his Reverse Cursed Technique
Miguel: Larue, you did good
Miguel: ....Take care
Larue: That way is Heaven
Miguel: .....?
Narrator-kun: And yet,
Miguel: Hey, you have to be kidding me!!

DOMAIN EXPANSION - MALEVOLENT SHRINE
Narrator-kun: Along with the black sparks, the King's domain
Narrator-kun: returned back to its owner.
Page 4-5
Narrator-kun: ???
Something about changing something with Void and the brain and a CT.
Narrator-kun: Including uncertain components and impromptu binding vows, a post-Black Flash Ryomen Sukuna reproduced Malevolent Shrine without lowering its output.

Hakkari: It will be necessary to have either the Reverse Cursed Technique or domain anti-measures in this fight
Maki: I can't do that
Hakkari: Not talking about you
Hakkari: For the Reverse Curse Technique, we can manage by with Yuji or myself
Yuji: Uh, me?
Choso: Ieiri, Hakkari, Okkotsu. I have been questioning this, but when regenerating with the Reverse Cursed Technique, how are you compensating for the lost blood?
Hakkari: My Reverse Cursed Technique is on full auto, so I don't know
Yuta: And I use it instinctualy, but this is…
Shoko: Transforming cursed energy into blood.
Shoko: There are a lot of people who can't heal others among those who can use the Reverse Cursed Technique on themselves
Shoko: That its a different matter entirely is one reason, but another is the rejection reaction
Shoko: Rejecting the cursed energy of the healer, or the one being healed's cursed energy not being transformed
Shoko: ???
Can't make out the dialogue here
Page 7
Choso: I thought so.
Choso: My body has a physical trait that transforms cursed energy into blood.
Choso: If Yuji takes in my brothers, he should also gain that trait along with some sort of technique
Choso: And thats not all,
Choso: Because we can compensate for the necessary skills with that trait, we won't have the problem of needing the Reverse Cursed Technique's massive cursed energy cost.... I think
Shoko: So that means the hurdle of learning the Reverse Cursed Technique is lower for you two
Choso: So in the In-and-Out Training we're going to be doing, I want someone who can use the Reverse Cursed Technique at least one time
Yuji: ....In and Out Training?
Ui Ui: My technique is the teleportation of the target. If they're with me, I can send anyone to places and people that I have placed a marking on.
Page 8
Hakkari: Hmm
Ui Ui: ???
Its exposition of his CT, but text is cut off
Choso: Hrmmm
Ui Ui: That box is like another person's birthday present, so whats inside cannot just be taken out on a whim
Yuji: Hmm?
Hakkari: Its too quick to be getting tripped up
Ui Ui: If the person's permission is acquired, I can take out whats inside
Ui Ui: So if they're marked, I can move a human and their human companions souls and swap them.
Yuji: HUH!?
Ui Ui: What is it?
Yuji: Well, according to the technique of that Mahito cursed spirit, if the shape of a soul is changed, it seems the body changes too.
Yuji: Then if we swap, won't the shapes of our souls and bodies get strung along too.....
Ui Ui: Do not worry
Page 9
Ui Ui: I can swap you without opening the box
Ui Ui: So long as it is not opened, no one can know whether you've really swapped
Kusakabe: Itadori, your growth speed as a sorcerer is amazing
Kusakabe: Do you know why?
Yuji: Um?
Yuji: Well, you see... if I would say, my talent is....
Kusakabe: Its Sukuna.
Kusakabe: Like with sports, if you repeat movements over and over, your body will remember it.
Kusakabe: Sukuna took over your body and used sorcery
Kusakabe: Your body has the memories of super Special Grade class sorcery
Kusakabe: So the speed at which you learn things is abnormally fast
lmfao. Get shit on Yuji.
Kusakabe: That very premise is how we will undergo this In-and-Out training
Kusakabe: First is with me. With my cursed energy control and the basics of barrier technique, we will hammer into your body the Simple Domain
Page 10
Hakkari: Huh? But Simple Domain has a binding vow to prevent it being spread outside the Shin Kage
Mei Mei: No problem
Mei Mei: We figured it out
Hakkari: Why are you so happy?
Ui Ui: If our time period is a month, the limit for swapping per person is twice. So please think carefully about who will be paired up
SHIN KAGE STYLE
SIMPLE DOMAIN
Well that explains the "we cheated" bit. They were all body hopping and giving each other their technical skills.
Page 11
Yuji thoughts: Just by seeing, you can tell its an imperfect domain!!
Yuji thoughts: There must be a hole somewhere!!
Not a literal hole. A weakness to be exploited.
Yuji thoughts: I need to endure this!!
Page 12-13
Narrator-kun: Itadori Yuji's thinking was correct
Narrator-kun: Even in this harrowing moment, Ryomen Sukuna did not lower the difficulty of the barrier technique, and just like in Shibuya did not split apart the effect's range from the barrier's external world.
Narrator-kun: By enveloping a domain with a barrier's outer shell, the binding vow that provided an escape route would disappear. The range of its effect would be smaller, and the way the domain is used would be changed,
Narrator-kun: Within the manifested soul scenery, the sure-hit effect would be activated.
Narrator-kun: He did this because it would be impossible to target Zen'in Maki who has no cursed energy.
Narrator-kun: But Sukuna as he is right now cannot keep maintaining this advanced domain
Narrator-kun: 99 Seconds
Page 14-15
Narrator-kun: After 99 seconds
Narrator-kun: Malevolent Shrine will collapse
Yuji thoughts: Endure it!!
Maki thoughts: Endure it!!
Ino thoughts: Endure it!!
Choso thoughts: Endure it!!
Choso: Yuji!!

Page 17
Yuji: !!?
Yuji thoughts: The slashes stopped!!
Yuji thoughts: We endured it—
Page 18-19
Sukuna: Furnace
竈Kamino is read as "kamado" and means "stove, furnace, kiln". 'Stove' is better for the cooking theme, but 'furnace' sounds cooler imo.
Sukuna: Fuga
As you know, katagana on the side is "fuga" and the kanji is 開hiraku "to open"
Blurb: The flames that kill all come attacking!!
Break next week
