Higuruma, who wants to preserve the mechanics of the Culling Game, is ready to protect his points against Yuji Itadori. The cliffhanger moment from the last chapter hints at Itadori and Higuruma's battle in the Culling Game.

Twitter user Ducky has shared the preview of "Jujutsu Kaisen" Chapter 164 teasing the much-awaited battle. Can Itadori convince Higuruma to use his points and introduce a new rule?

"A duel to the death, with the points on the line!" read the preview.

In Chapter 163 of the "Jujutsu Kaisen" manga, the opening scene showed a flashback of Amai and Itadori in junior high. Amai was the kind of guy who used to hang out with the bullies to avoid any kind of trouble.

One day, Itadori saw a group bullying someone. Itadori went ahead and beat up the bullies. It turned out that they were bullying Amai. Now, both Itadori and Amai are participating in the Culling Game.

Elsewhere, Megumi Fushiguro cautioned Remi about not taking the Ikebukuro route to Shinjuku because they might run into other players. Remi told him the route was simple and moreover, she had a base nearby.

She told Fushiguro she needed to rest before they can move forward. Later, they ran into another Culling Game player, named Reggie, who told Fushiguro it was a trap laid out by Remi.

Fushiguro was annoyed as he desperately wanted to see Higuruma, but now he had no choice but to fight against Reggie.

Amai told Itadori that Higuruma was inside a theatre. Itadori went inside the complex and saw a man in a bathtub. After talking about swimming and bathing, Itadori asked him if he was Higuruma. He asked Higuruma if he was the one who scored 100 points in the game.

Itadori figured out he was not an incarnated sorcerer but a modern one, so there was a chance he would be willing to listen and he can try to strike a deal with him. Unfortunately, Higuruma had no intention of using his points to stop the Culling Game or interfere with its basic mechanics.

Itadori was left with no choice but use force against him. However, Higuruma's powers were still a mystery to him.

"Jujutsu Kaisen" Chapter 164 is scheduled for release coming Sunday. The digital version of the chapter will be available on Manga Plus and Viz.
