Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo continues to expand its universe beyond the boundaries of the original manga. Chapter 9, titled “Dūra Varu Bobidi Mechika (Part 2),” delves deeper into the mysteries surrounding the Simurian race — an extraterrestrial civilization that reshapes how fans understand Cursed Energy. Among the new revelations is the introduction of Mul, a powerful and enigmatic mineral that could redefine jujutsu as we know it.
What Is Mul in Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo?
Mul is introduced in Chapter 9 as a rare and potent ore capable of transforming Cursed Energy into any form of power. The mineral is so valuable that it becomes the root cause of major conflicts between factions like the Deskunta and the Lumers. While earlier chapters hinted that their war had religious or ideological motives, Chapter 9 confirms it was actually driven by greed and the desire to control Mul’s limitless potential.
The Deskunta’s invasion of Mul mines brought them enormous profit, but their exploitation also disrupted the natural and spiritual balance of the Simurian lands. Dhura, a Lumer leader, recognized the material’s immense power and its potential danger. To prevent it from falling into the wrong hands, he concealed its true nature, even during the canal construction that secretly unearthed the mineral.
When Dhura dies, Dabra — another central figure in the Simurian arc — reveals the truth: the canal stones themselves are Mul, left behind as Dhura’s final gift. His decision to hide the ore from the Deskunta ensured that his people, the Lumers, would one day reclaim their dignity and power.
The Role of Mul in the Simurian Legacy
Mul isn’t just a power source; it’s a bridge between physical and spiritual energy. Its ability to adapt Cursed Energy into different forms mirrors how the Simurians channel their own energy through biological and spiritual conduits like the Third Eye. This connection reinforces the idea that the Simurian civilization once possessed a deeper understanding of energy manipulation than modern sorcerers.
Dhura’s respect for Mul shows that it’s not merely a resource — it’s a sacred element tied to Simurian identity. Its misuse by outsiders like the Deskunta represents exploitation of divine energy, echoing real-world themes of colonization and environmental greed.
Maru’s Connection to Mul and His Expanding Power
Perhaps the most striking revelation in Chapter 9 is how Maru, one of the twin Simurian brothers, uses Mul to display his overwhelming strength. By manipulating the vast reserves of Mul left behind by his mentor, Maru creates the enormous Simurian spacecraft seen at the beginning of Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo.
This feat demonstrates not only his mastery over Cursed Energy but also his capacity for creation rather than destruction — a rare trait among high-level jujutsu users. While characters like Gojo and Sukuna are known for their destructive might, Maru’s ability to transmute raw matter puts him in a different league altogether.
Mul essentially acts as the amplifier for Maru’s abilities. It channels his Cursed Energy into tangible structures, showing that his power may extend beyond combat — into the realm of creation, innovation, and world-building.
How Mul Redefines Power in the Jujutsu Kaisen Universe
The introduction of Mul shifts the power dynamics of the Jujutsu Kaisen universe. It introduces the concept of a universal energy converter, something that can transcend traditional barriers between Cursed Energy, technology, and nature. If modern jujutsu society ever gains access to Mul, it could revolutionize their techniques or trigger catastrophic consequences.
Moreover, Mul symbolizes balance — the duality between greed and wisdom, destruction and creation. While the Deskunta saw it as a resource for wealth, Dhura and Maru view it as a sacred medium that connects the living to the divine. Its existence hints that the Simurians’ downfall, and perhaps Earth’s future, will revolve around who controls this powerful ore.
