The Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo manga is a very interesting sequel series produced by Gege Akutami following the ending of the original series. Most of these comics don't focus on older characters. Instead, the story takes place 68 years in the future.
In that sense, The original cast of Jujutsu Kaisen are either dead or too old to be a major part of the story..

What has recently come to light is Yuji Itadori disappeared several years ago.. This revelation followed after it was emphasized that he was no longer growing old. I don't know why it happened, but it caused me a lot of suffering.
Over the past few years, Yuji had to watch his friends die one after another.. The burden of this loss was too much for him to bear and he decided to simply leave his old life behind. Previously, The last place Yuji Itadori was seen was at the funeral of Kurusu Hana, as stated by Nobara, Yuji's old friend.. But now Yuji has reappeared in the story, making it very exciting.

Naturally, fans were excited to see Yuji return, and most were happy to see their beloved Shinjuku hero return once again. However, fans have yet to see his full face after his return.

Through Convergence, Yuji quickly takes over a building full of wizards.
Yuji Itadori wasn't always the strongest character in Jujutsu Kaisen. After all, before the Battle of Sukuna, Yuji was actually quite outmatched in combat. Especially when compared to other talented wizards around him like Yuta Okotsu and Genin Maki.
However, in the Battle of Sukuna, Yuji unleashed even more of his potential. Come to think of it, Yuji's level at the time was nothing compared to his current level. Upon Yuji's return from Modulo, Gege quickly showed how much his power had grown.
In Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 19, Yuji showed how he became the best blood manipulation user in the entire story. With Blood Penetrating, an ability specially used by his older brother Choso, Yuji was able to bring down an entire building full of wizards and Simurians.
68 years after the fall of Gojo, Akutami Gege confirmed the new strongest wizard in Jujutsu Kaisen.
Gojo used to be Japan's strongest wizard, but that's no longer the case. Japan takes new first place in JJK Modulo.
For those of you who don't know, you have to use Convergence to use Piercing Blood, and Yuji couldn't do that in the Shinjuku arc. thus, The sentry had to create a convergence to use its power.. But now Yuji has not only mastered that power, but has even evolved.
In most cases, A skilled user of Piercing Blood can only use a maximum of three arrows at a time, and they follow a single trajectory. Yuji easily produced numerous arrows, each following a unique trajectory.Overwhelms an entire wizard building with one move.
Without a doubt, This is JJK's greatest achievement through Blood Manipulation.And this is maintenance nowhere near his full power. Fans have only gotten a glimpse of what he is truly capable of at this point.
With Yuji's return, the biggest fight in JJK history takes place.

Yuji must fight Dabura and save Yuka Okotsu.
Yuji Itadori did not return from Jujutsu: Modulo without reason.. mostly, Gege Akutami brought him back to help fight the existential threat humans currently face.. As fans who have been watching Modulo know, Japan is facing a major crisis as aliens known as Simurians have settled in Tokyo and are trying to completely ban cursed spirit exorcism, which is absolutely unacceptable.
At one point, while the discussion was going smoothly, a conflict broke out when Cross was shot, and a fight between the strongest people began over which side would take over Tokyo. Dabura is the most powerful and leader of the Simurians. In response, humanity had to draw a trump card: Yuka Okotsu.. Yuka summoned Mahoraga, but it was now clear that Mahoraga alone was not enough. Dabura will soon surpass Mahoraga and destroy him.
With that, Yuka's death seems inevitable, but Yuji becomes involved.. Yuji Itadori will be the one who saves not only Yuka, but all of humanity. At the same time, Yuji will likely broker peace with the Simurians, and in doing so, Gege is preparing for his biggest fight yet in Jujutsu Kaisen.
It's possible that this battle between Yuji and Dabura will allow him to achieve his ultimate goal: to die surrounded by his loved ones. This was something he was unable to achieve due to his strange immortality.. Fans are really eager to see where Gege takes Yuji's character next.
