Fan Theories of Jujutsu Kaisen
Fans, after the manga, have made many theories based on the possibilities. One of which is Yuji being able to kill Sukuna on his own. Yuji is born with immense physical strength. This could be because his mother is Kenjaku. The origin of Yuji’s mother before Kenjaku’s possession is unknown. She is said to have been a sorcerer herself. For that matter, Kenjaku might have chosen someone who is of a stronger clan. Yuji may have developed his strength at a young age for this reason.
Yuji Can Actually Outdo Sukuna!!
If this is true, then Yuji can outdo Sukuna. Since he carried Sukuna inside his body for so long, it can only mean that Yuji and Sukuna have some relationship. It could be a connection to their past lives. Yuji is said to be a cursed object due to Sukuna’s possession for so long. This can also mean that Yuji can control Sukuna to some extent. If Yuji shares a bond with Sukuna, he can defeat him alone.

In the manga chapters “Cursed Womb Parts 1 and 2,” it is revealed that Kenjaku initiated the cunning game to gain a better understanding of Jujutsu. He hoped that the world would be as it was during the Heian Era, also known as the Golden Age of Jujutsu. Fans can read the manga on Manga Plus and Viz Media. The anime is available on Crunchyroll and Netflix.
