I know that the current translation is horse shit but still, Sukuna stated himself what was their counter attack plan:
Yuta has to weakens Sukuna enough so Yuji can use his soul-related ability to get him outta Megumi's body.
This is the plan, and Yuji's just sticking to it, he's not Nika.
According to Sukuna, Yuta most likely used Angel's Jacob Ladder as his DE sure hit effect, in which case ha has to perm protect himself otherwise he's over.
Such a DE is as problematic as Gojo's for Sukuna, and since he doesn't have Mahoraga's adaptation anymore, one mistake from him would be fatal.
Either Sukuna uses hand seals to strenghten HWB because of Yuta's CE massice output, or as @NikaInParis suggested Gege fixed a previous mistake.
As said above Sukuna wanted to see the execution sword (or whatever its name is). I guess confiscation wasn't an issue for him, probably because cleave/dismantle isn't his true CT but just a part of it (or he knew he could restore it a way or another thanks to the actual but still unknown nature of his true CT).
