Specifically, there is a flashback to a meeting of senior spellcasters, discussing the next options and strategies if, unfortunately, Gojo Satoru fails to defeat Ryomen Sukuna. The plan includes Yuta sneaking into Kenjaku with Takaba's help, then silently returning to assist his teammates.
The next plan is for Higuruma to join the battle after Kashimo finishes his match with the Uncle King. However, Higuruma himself also knew that defeating Sukuna through his techniques was still not feasible enough.
At this time, Itadori Yuji proposed an idea, which was to accuse Sukuna of being an accomplice in causing the tragedy that killed a series of innocent people at Shibuya subway station last year. If so, it would be much easier to judge and punish Sukuna.

Thanks to this idea, Higuruma immediately deployed the Territory Expansion called Death Sentence, turning this place into a trial. Sukuna was declared an accomplice in causing the massacre of people in Shibuya. Fans are extremely curious about the reason Yuji gave if Sukuna will be sentenced to death
Chapter 245 ends with Higuruma's defeat
Obviously, Sukuna will not be able to plead guilty. He was extremely uncooperative, and denied all the charges brought by the trial, even turning the blame on Yuji. This action of his made the judge extremely angry, leading to a direct confrontation between the two sides.
Yuji and Sukuna's fight inside the territory was extremely tense. Meanwhile, Higuruma is still thinking of a way to accuse Sukuna of the Shibuya Massacre. Sukuna did not react at all, he said that he understood how Higuruma's domain worked since he was still in Yuji's body. So obviously, the question of whether Sukuna will be sentenced to death is “No.”
Currently, the Uncle King really wanted to try his hand at the Death Penalty Sword and as he wished, the Judge gave the verdict. Higuruma believes that this is the only chance to defeat this demon, because Sukuna used all the Ten Shadows in the battle with Gojo.
However, as expected of Uncle Vuong. Sukuna understood the Necromancer's plan. The Death Sentence Territory can only temporarily hold the power of Sukuna's spell, but cannot restrain the spell. Higuruma's control of the domain evaporated and new Necromancers entered the scene, including Kusakabe, Choso and Ino. Sukuna began to counterattack and a dramatic confrontation took place.
