He is one of the strongest Mages to ever exist, taking down hundreds of challengers without any form of attack. hard. Basically, he’s like Kenpachi, who lives to fight. What makes him especially dangerous is his Cursed Energy, yes Electrical properties.
The electrical nature of his cursed energy causes his body to always electrified. This makes Hajime’s physical attacks enhanced with cursed energy unstoppable as his attacks shock the opponent upon impact.
He also has the ability to fire powerful lightning attacks that can cause great damage.
He achieves this by separating the charges himself and causing his cursed energy to change from a positive charge to a negative charge, resulting in a powerful attack. These attacks move through the air and are solid attacks which he can use without activating Domain Extension.
His lightning attack can catch Kinji Hakari off guard,
He can also create lightning bolts using Nyoi staff as a terminal. It is a cursed tool that can manipulate the electrical properties of his cursed energy as well as act as a standard staff for physical attacks. He used it to tear Hakari’s stomach open.
His control over cursed electrical energy is perfect. During his fight with Hakari, when he fell into sea water, he realized that he had the upper hand thanks to the water’s electrical conductivity. He can basically do all kinds of chemical reactions that require electricity because he can perform electrolysis in salt to release chlorine gas, a dangerous poison for humans.

Jumping into the fray right after Gojo’s death, he knew it was the moment he was born. On the other hand, Sukuna received the Cursed Tool Kamutoke (Ultimate Martial Arts Solution) formed from the Desperate Binding Oath that Yorozu took in exchange for her death.
The cursed tool was used by Sukuna a thousand years ago and it has the ability to discharge electricity. And guess who uses electricity? Sukuna’s weapon has no chance of harming Kashimo as he is immune to electrical attacks due to his own cursed energy nature.
That’s when he unleashed his cursed technique: LEGENDARY ANIMAL: AMBER
As the table above indicates, it recreates his flesh to represent the phenomenon he transformed from the cursed energy. Basically, that means his body fully powered by electricity.
Subsequent tables explain that his agility improved due to increased activity of electrical signals in the brain.
Furthermore, sound waves optimize and harmonize with the natural frequencies of substances and electromagnetic waves vaporize irradiated objects, such phenomena are manifested in his body when the technique is His curse is activated.x
If these words sound too complicated to understand then it basically means that everything starting from the senses to physical and electrical output is greatly increased. He can fire powerful sonic waves that can cause shockwaves. Additionally, his speed is too fast for Sukuna to catch up.
While his powers are fascinating to witness, we have to remember what he said before: he can only use his powers once. This is because the chemical reactions and phenomena that continuously took place during his body’s regeneration took a toll on his flesh and once the cursed technique ended, his body it will collapse.
Sukuna was overwhelmed by his abilities and this led to him revealing his true form! Kashimo’s dream will definitely come true before he meets his end.
We may be witnessing the death of another character but thanks to his abilities, intelligence, and sheer will to fight, he will be remembered as one of the strongest warriors in the Universe. Jujutsu pillar!
