JJK Modulo Chapter 20 might just be the biggest and most exciting chapter in the series yet, and fans are beyond excited for what writer Gege Akutami has delivered. In the previous chapter of the manga, fans saw the grand return of Yuji Itadori, and it goes without saying that he is stronger than ever before. With the mighty Piercing Blood, Yuji showed everyone that his potential was fulfilled and how strong he had truly become over the past 69 years.
Jujutsu Kaisen: Why Yuji's shrine is better than Suku's, explained
Yuji and Sukuna can both use the shrine's ability. Yujis can be better in JJK.
Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 20 took over from there and showed a glimpse of Yuji's overall power. It goes without saying that Yuji is a monster in terms of overall strength, and his powers go far beyond what anyone expected. In fact, it wouldn't even be a stretch to say that Yuji is the strongest wizard of all timeand it's pretty clear to see based on his current strength.
Yuji Itadori received major power ups in Shinjuku Showdown

Yuji gained several powers in the Sukuna Raid
-
His innate technique finally awakened
Yuji's rise to power officially began in the Shinjuku Showdown arc of Jujutsu Kaisen. As fans know, this was the final arc of the story, with Yuji Itadori taking on Ryomen Sukuna in battle after the fall of Gojo Satoru. In this arc, fans saw Yuji get a lot of huge power-ups, and it almost felt like Yuji got too strong too fast. However, it matters little, because he went on to defeat Ryomen Sukuna, the King of Cursesand deliver a decent ending to the story. Yuji's power-ups in the Shinjuku Shodown arc can be divided into several categories.
I told them this would happen. Not that I said it out loud though. Piercing blood! — Yuji Itadori, JJK Modulo Chapter 19
The power of blood manipulation
One of the first power-ups Yuji got in Shinjuku Shodown, or rather in the time jump that came before it, is Blood Manipulation. Thanks to consuming Death Paintings 4 through 9, Yuji was able to gain access to Blood Manipulation and become more related to his brother Choso, and the likes of Eso in Kechizu. This helped Yuji a lot, as he didn't have a cursed technique when fans first saw him in the story. But now he had access to blood manipulation.
Mastery of Reverse Cursed Technique
Despite having Blood Manipulation, Yuji still couldn't use the power of Convergence properly, meaning he needed help from Choso to use Piercing Blood. As said, the main reason Yuji needed blood manipulation was for the Reverse Cursed Technique. Unlike other wizards, Yuji didn't have to put in too much effort to harness the power of Reverse Cursed Technique due to having blood manipulation. This really helped him a lot against the King of Curses, and was a major reason why he even defeated Sukuna in the first place.
The power of the shrine
The other, and quite easily the biggest power-up Yuji got in this arc, was the Shrine technique. As fans know, Yuji was the vessel for Ryomen Sukuna, and right from the start, Sukuna poured his cursed energy into his body. Gojo Satoru confirmed it with his Six Eyes long ago Yuji was basically like a cursed object himselfto be bathed in Sukuna's cursed energy. He even stated that Yuji would have Sukuna's cursed technique engraved into his body, which is exactly what happened in the final war in Shinjuku.
Sukuna, let's end this once and for all. I can defeat you. — Yuji Itadori, Shinjuku Showdown
Yuji landed a powerful Black Flash on the King of Curses, triggering the awakening of his latent Cursed Technique. This gave Yuji access to the Shrine, although his version of the technique was slightly different from Sukun's. Yuji's shrine saw him use scissor-like cutting techniques to make precise cuts, and he was able to combine this power with his innate ability to hit souls somehow. Yuji landed incredibly powerful Soul Dismantles with his Cursed Technique and eventually developed it to the point where he even developed a domain expansion.
A full-fledged domain expansion
The fight against Ryomen Sukuna ended in Yuji Itadori's domain expansionbut to get to that he had to train with Kusakabe during the time jump. When Yuji trained with Kusakabe, he managed to learn the power of the Simple Domain, and without a doubt, this was one of the greatest abilities he gained from infusing his technique into the domain he learned.
Yuji managed to create a powerful domain expansion, and it was unlike Sukun's. While Sukuna's domain was a shrine in a pool of blood and corpses littered all around, Yuji's domain was a metaphor for the place he called home. Yuji was able to take Sukuna to places he had been throughout his childhood, and this was quite a powerful landscape.
As for his techniques, Yuji landed a powerful safe Soul Dismantle on Sukunawhich ultimately weakened him considerably. All of these power-ups made Yuji a monster to deal with in battle, but this was just the beginning for him, as his potential was just about to be realized.
Adult Yuji Itadori's full power is beyond Gojo and Sukuna

Yuji Itadori has mastered blood manipulation
-
His shrine is stronger than Sukun's
69 years later Jujutsu Kaisen Modulofans finally got a glimpse of Yuji Itadori's powers as an adult. It goes without saying that he is an absolute disaster at the moment. In fact, Yuji is much stronger than fans saw him in Shinjukuand this version is actually comparable to the likes of Gojo and Sukuna. In fact, based on his showing in the JJK Modulo chapter 20, it wouldn't even be easy to say that he is actually even stronger than these two calamities.
Yuji Itadori is a thing of the past. He doesn't matter anymore. — Yuji, JJK Modulo Chapter 20
When Yuji first debuted in Chapter 19 of the sequel manga, he used the power of Blood Manipulation to a whole new level using Convergenceand then harnessed the power of Piercing Blood. Yuji used so many powerful arrows at once that he managed to overwhelm dozens of humans and Simurians at the same time. An entire building full of wizards was taken down by Yuji in an instant.
If that wasn't enough, Yuji then proceeded to show the power of his other cursed technique, the Shrine. Yuji harnessed the power of slashing attacks with the Cursed Shrine Technique during the Shinjuku Showdown. Now his technique has evolved to a whole new level. Yuji used two powerful dismounts, and the size of them was incredible. It wouldn't be easy to say that Yuji's shrine is even stronger than Sukuna'sas his basic dismount attacks were comparable to Sukuna's Divine Flame and Gojo's Hollow Purple.
Yuji has also mastered the black lightning
On top of that, Yuji seems to have mastered the ability to beat the Black Flash at will. It must be remembered that no wizard in JJK's history can beat Black Flash at will, but Yuji is the one who has hit it the most in the fight against Sukuna. It almost felt like Yuji was hitting them at will, but this was almost certainly due to his incredible focus.
Now as an adult, Yuji casually managed to land a Black Flash on one of the Simuriansand this was immediately after his debut. This shows that Yuji has indeed mastered the power of the Black Flash, and all of this together makes him the strongest wizard in JJK history, surpassing the level of both Gojo and Sukuna. At this point, Yuji is completely unstoppable and a disaster.
