Y'all remember how confidently Gojo stated that he would defeat Sukuna even at his full power? Obviously it wouldn't be a Low or Mid difficulty fight but you get what he meant.
What if Six Eyes users can see the memories of the previous Six Eyes users and that's how they pass down the knowledge and techniques they come up with? Maybe Gojo dug deep thru the memories of the previous Six Eyes user and got all the way to the Golden Age and saw what Prime Sukuna looked like and how he fought?
I also have one more small theory which should interest
@Light D Lamperouge especially. Could it be possible that Gojo lied to Megumi to lift up his spirit? If you think about it there is no sense in Shadow Techniques user defeating Gojo clan member unless you are damn Sukuna and you have his Cursed Energy pool and overall power level๐
Or it was simply a misconception and the Gojo clan member that was defeated by Shadow Techniques user didn't had both Six Eyes and Limitless.
First of all, why did Sukuna chose Megumi as his vessel?
Sukuna knew something about Shadows Technique that is not revealed yet.
Connect the dots;
โ Shadows Technique user defeating Gojo clan member
โ Sukuna know about Shadow Technique's potential
โ It confirms that Gojo did not lie to Megumi
Gojo said he can beat Sukuna. But now we dont know if he can beat Megukuna or not.
So, the real question is; How strong is Megukuna? Can he beat Gojo now?
From last chapter, we know that things are not going as he thought they would.
I expect that he will receive some help, or escape to buy some time. Maybe angel will come back and force Sukuna out of Megumi's body.
He needs a new vessel, and that vessel will not be from main cast. He may get his original body back or sth else like that. Will Yuji keep on punching Megumi? No! Nobody will seriously attack Megumi's body.
There is only one solution!
Force him out of Megumi's body and give him a new vessel.
So, what was the purpose? I think it will give Megumi a huge power up. Maybe, Sukuna helped him realize what can be done with Shadows Technique.
Megumi was doing good, but not on the level of Yuta or Hakari.
TLDR;
Gojo didnt lie about Shadow Tech. Sukuna knew its potential, so he chose Megumi. Sukuna thought Megukuna could defeat Gojo, but it failed (last chapter). He need new vessel.
Whole purpose was to give power up to Megumi.
Real fight will start when Sukuna get new vessel.
Because they cant kill Megumi. It is Sukuna that needs to be defeated.
