Yuji Itadori is quite easily the strongest sorcerer in the world of Jujutsu Kaisen right now. Fans keeping up with the sequel story, JJK Modulo, will know that Yuji Itadori is officially back once again, and he is stronger than ever before.
In the final arc of the original story, that is Shinjuku Shodown, Yuji Itadori tapped into a plethora of powers and managed to awaken his true potential in the battle against Sukuna. Yuji also went on to utilize his incredible domain for the very first time. However, since then, a lot of time has passed, and Yuji has learned a lot of incredible jujutsu, along with mastering a completely new Cursed Technique. It goes without saying that the current Yuji Itadori is even stronger than the likes of Gojo Satoru and Ryomen Sukuna, and, as such, fans are fully expecting him to be capable of utilizing a new domain. Although Yuji has yet to showcase his full power, his new Domain Expansion could be showcased very soon in the story, once he takes on Dabura Karaba in battle.

When it comes to Domain Expansions, fans know that Yuji Itadori already has access to one. In the Shinjuku Showdown arc, Yuji got access to his first Domain Expansion, and he had to work ridiculously hard to achieve it.
For starters, tapping into the Domain Expansion required Yuji to train with Kusakabe during the timeskip between the end of the Culling Game Arc and the beginning of the Shinjuku Showdown Arc. During the one month, Yuji swapped himself with two different people, one being Yuta Okkotsu and the second being none other than Kusakabe. Once Yuji and Kusakabe swapped bodies, he gained control over the power of a Simple Domain. Yuji utilized the powers of a simple domain once he started to defend against the onslaught of Ryomen Sukuna's Malevolent Shrine. Quite clearly, Yuji had grasped the basics of simple domains very well, and this only meant that he could now evolve even further as a sorcerer.

In the same arc, Yuji also managed to awaken the latent cursed technique that Sukuna's cursed energy had engraved onto his body. As was made clear by Gojo at the very beginning, Yuji was bathed in Sukuna's cursed energy, and at some point in the future, he would go on to get the same technique as him. This technique awakened after Yuji landed a powerful Black Flash on the King of Curses in Shinjuku, and from there onwards he started rising to Sukuna's own level, step by step. Yuji's cursed technique was also Shrine, but in his case, it was slightly different from that of Sukuna, at least at the time.
While Sukuna's cursed technique allowed him to produce indiscriminate slashes, Yuji's technique was more like scissors snips, and far more precise. However, as is quite clear in JJK Modulo, it seems that Yuji has mastered Shrine to a level where he can utilize the exact same technique as Sukuna now.
In either case, Yuji was able to imbue Shrine into his innate domain and then create his own incredible Domain Expansion, which remains unknown to this day. Yuji's Domain Expansion painted a picture of the places he loves from his hometown, and it is inside this domain that he ended the battle against Sukuna once and for all.
Yuji's Sure Hit Technique
As far as the Sure Hit Technique of Yuji's innate domain goes, fans know that he was able to combine his ability to hit the souls of his enemies with a Dismantle. This sure hit Dismantle hit the soul of Ryomen Sukuna directly and was able to weaken his grip over Megumi Fushihiro even further. With the Black Flash that followed, Yuji succeeded in splitting the two apart and saved the life of Megumi Fushihiro, ending Ryomen Sukuna forever.
Quite clearly, Yuji's domain expansion was incredibly powerful, but back then, his mastery over this technique was not complete at all. Now, Yuji's Domain Expansion is likely to have grown tremendously, both in terms of the Shrine and the new Domain Expansion that he most likely has.
Yuji Itadori Could Use A Second Domain Expansion
Yuji Should Be Able To Imbue Blood Manipulation In His Domain
As was clearly seen in JJK Modulo, Yuji has now mastered Blood Manipulation as well. For those who do not remember, Yuji gained access to Blood Manipulation after he ate Death Paintings 4-9 in the timeskip before the Shinjuku showdown. This was largely done to give Yuji easier access to Reverse Cursed Technique at the time, because he could then manipulate his own blood and aid his healing greatly without expending extra cursed energy.
I warned them this would happen! Though I didn't really say it out loud. Did I take it too far? — Yuji Itadori, JJK Modulo Chapter 19
Back then, Yuji struggled to utilize the powerful abilities that came with Blood Manipulation because he had no control over the powers of Convergence. Now, it is pointed out that Yuji has mastered Blood Manipulation and has even taken it beyond the level displayed by Choso previously in the story. Given that Blood Manipulation is a technique that stands shoulder to shoulder with the Limitless and Ten Shadows, Gege Akutami has the perfect opportunity to showcase the true secret power of this ability in the sequel story.
Theoretically, it shouldn't be impossible for Yuji to imbue Blood Manipulation in his domain and create a second Domain Expansion. Of course, most characters have only a single Domain Expansion, but at the same time, it must be remembered that most individuals in the world of JJK have a single Innate Technique. Given that Yuji has access to two, he should be able to utilize this incredible power in his upcoming battles.
By imbuing Blood Manipulation inside his domain, Yuji should be able to create a Blood Domain Expansion inside which he might be able to freely control the blood of even his enemies. In fact, it is possible that the entire domain will be filled with blood, similar to Megumi's Chimera Shadow Garden, and Yuji can do with blood whatever he likes, such as changing its properties, its state of existence, creating clones with it, and even restricting the blood inside the body of his enemies, leading to complete paralysis or making the blood in their body boil. There are countless possibilities of what Gege can do when it comes to the Blood Manipulation domain, and Yuji Itadori is going to be the perfect character that he can show this with.
Yuji's New Domain Will Take Blood Manipulation To Its Peak
Blood Manipulation Will Finally Get The Respect It Deserves
If it wasn't clear already, the peak of Blood Manipulation has never been shown to the fans in Jujutsu Kaisen. This is a special technique that belongs to the Kamo Clan, who stood shoulder-to-shoulder with the Gojo and the Zenin clan. Fans have seen the incredible powers of the Ten Shadows Technique that comes with Mahoraga, as well as the tremendous power of the Limitless technique with Gojo Satoru. Yet, Blood Manipulation hasn't received a proper showing so far in the story. Yuji Itadori can deliver that and show the fans, what the peak of this technique truly looks like in the sequel of Jujutsu Kaisen, which has already started to wrap up.
