Sukuna didn't leave fatal wound on Ryu. He killed him with a touch.
Yes he killed him by making a fatal wound on his head...? A dismantle would not be able to filet him into three which would also kill him, a filet can not cut through his entire body and simply do surface level damage otherwise it would also kill him. Any type of full on cut through Ryu's body would one shot him. What do you even mean, re-telling the statement again:
"If I don't make direct contact I won't leave a fatal wound"
By stating that contact is
needed for a fatal wound, Sukuna is admitting that
no amount of raw power that he can pour into a Dismantle would make a full cut on Ryu, Yuji or Yuta. This would include the random cloud one
(which might I add would also not be a max output dismantle regardless, a regular point blank dismantle is already above that but I digress)
That scan shows Rika hand cutting off with Cleave. Nothing to do with zero injury.
There's 3 images in said link, one where sukuna showers yuta and yuji with dismantles, one where rika's hand gets cut off and the last one where sukuna looks back at yuji and yuta
and makes the claim that he didn't fatally wound them there.
Do you even know what zero damage means?
Chapter 248 and chapters 250 dismantles did damage to Yuji where he and Yuta needed time to heal.
Apologies for not being clear I mean zero
fatal damage, according to Sukuna himself. It did superficial damage just like it did to Yuji back when a 10% dismantle output was only doing superficial damage to Yuji back in the culling games despite still cutting his body.
Chapter 252 he literally thinks those attacks would have killed him. Using RCT is literally endurance feat. What you are claiming is wrong since if it's just about RCT Yuji would have died to chapter 247 attack where he got hit by cleave when half of his stomach was gone.
The
scan in japanese is that Yuji had fatal wounds and has healed said "fatal wounds"
four times over but it hasn't completely healed. This doesn't mean the dismantles themselves were fatal wounds because Sukuna directly says they weren't lol. They would normally be fatal due to how much damage he is taking from cleaves too, he is healing the cleaves four times over because they were never fully healed.
反転術式なんて覚えたての大技で普通なら死んでる傷を4度も…
Here's the text itself. The wounds would kill Yuji normally, he would have two parts of his torso ripped off, his entire body cut by dismantles (even tho not fully cut through) so he
would be bleeding out. That's why the injuries take a toll on him on that scene, he has been healing them yea but not fully since he wasn't as eficient with RCT so it came back to bite him.
May I note that even if you wipe yuta and yuji being unable to take fatal damage, Yuta is literally comparable to Ryu who wouldn't take fatal damage to any dismantle.
