Foreign magic enveloped him, driving the poison out of his body before it could take hold, and he was glad. He could cast Esuna, but doing so would waste precious seconds and to have one less thing to worry about was very, very good, especially as Kefka somehow appeared to be immune to the equivalent of a taser set on full being placed against his head. It made no sense, and would perhaps lead Kuja to wonder if there was anything rattling around in there later on, but for now he merely reacted. Ultima wasn't something he wanted going off in his parlor. He knew exactly what one could do with it.
When Vanitas leapt in and attacked, hopefully providing at least a momentary distraction, Kuja took the opportunity to unleash several fast-moving contrails of bright, purplish energy at the jester, at more or less point-blank range. It was Flare magic in a denser, more compact form--quicker to charge than Ultima, and still powerful, to interrupt Kefka's spell as it formed.
And also, incidentally, to try and knock him towards the glint of Masamune as it appeared. A fight between mages tended to be a disaster for their surroundings, and it seemed that Kuja still hoped to end this quickly and with a minimum of damage to his home.
