Chapter 109 - Chimera and Separation (Part 1)

Satoru Gojo was constantly switching between cursed technique reversion and cursed technique reversal, appearing like a flickering neon sign.

Eiji watched Satoru Gojo in this state and fell into deep thought.

Does the Ten Shadows Technique have cursed technique reversal?

There are many cursed techniques currently appearing in Jujutsu Kaisen.

Among them, although many cursed techniques are flexible, very few can use cursed technique reversal.

This is true even for later on, when strong individuals are everywhere, and many people can use cursed technique reversal.

Cursed technique reversion is the effect produced by injecting cursed energy into a cursed technique.

The principle is very simple: it's just about increasing cursed energy output to strengthen the effect of one's cursed technique.

Normally, the effect produced when Eiji outputs cursed energy to his summoned spirits is to replenish their cursed energy and strengthen their attributes.

Cursed technique reversal is the effect produced by injecting cursed technique reversal into a cursed technique.

Cursed technique reversal is not an innate technique; it's merely an advanced operating skill for cursed energy.

Therefore, in theory, everyone has the opportunity to master cursed technique reversal.

So, in theory, everyone can also use cursed technique reversal.

Currently, Satoru Gojo is the one who demonstrates cursed technique reversion and cursed technique reversal most clearly.

Satoru Gojo's Infinity cursed technique is a manifestation of the convergent infinite series from Achilles' "paradox."

It can actually be understood as a form of spatial manipulation.

That is, by infinitely dividing a certain range, one can prevent anyone from ever reaching the endpoint.

Therefore, attacks blocked by Infinity are not actually stopped.

They are merely trapped in the space created by the infinite division.

Cursed technique reversion, Cursed Technique: Blue, injects cursed energy into Infinity, causing it to shrink infinitely around a certain point.

The result is the formation of a sphere with immense gravitational pull, like a miniature black hole.

Cursed technique reversal, on the other hand, is the opposite: instead of shrinking space, it expands it, creating a powerful repulsive force centered on a point, resulting in an attack like a miniature supernova.

After quickly reviewing Satoru Gojo's cursed technique reversion and cursed technique reversal in his mind, Eiji began to consider if he could find anything to borrow for the Ten Shadows Technique.

"What's wrong, Eiji?"

Suguru Geto was the first to notice Eiji's unusual behavior.

"Suguru."

Eiji looked up at Suguru Geto.

"Can your Cursed Spirit Manipulation use cursed technique reversal?"

Suguru Geto had immense talent and later even mastered one of the ultimate techniques, Maximum Technique. Therefore, Eiji hoped to gain some insight from Suguru Geto.

"Cursed spirits are products of negative energy convergence. If you use cursed technique reversal on them, they'll be directly annihilated."

Shoko Ieiri leaned back on her hands, looking up at the two behind her.

She had experimented with cursed spirits more than once before.

Cursed spirits that came into contact with cursed technique reversal melted away rapidly, like snow under intense heat.

The more efficient the cursed technique reversal and the greater the output, the faster the cursed spirits would melt.

However, if the efficiency was low and the output insufficient, the cursed spirits would escape before being annihilated by the positive energy.

"And besides..."

Shoko Ieiri tilted her head and looked at Suguru Geto.

"You can't use cursed technique reversal yet, can you, Suguru?"

Shoko Ieiri gave Suguru Geto a playful smile.

Suguru Geto felt like he'd been shot in the knee.

Shoko Ieiri, needless to say, was a natural user of cursed technique reversal, a treasure of the Jujutsu World.

Eiji had also awakened cursed technique reversal several years ago during an encounter with a Special Grade Cursed Spirit, and even if he hadn't, he could have used Nue as a substitute.

Now even Satoru Gojo had mastered cursed technique reversal.

Altoria, being a Heroic Spirit, didn't count.

So, was he the only one being left behind?

No, research into cursed technique reversal must be put on the agenda. Otherwise, I won't even be able to keep up with Gojo and Eiji in close combat.

"Hey, I'm the protagonist here, why are you all discussing things without me?"

Satoru Gojo also felt injured.

This should have been a moment for his strength to advance by leaps and bounds, receiving praise and applause.

Why were they all chatting amongst themselves and leaving him, the protagonist, aside?

"Alright, ask me anything you want. The strongest Lord Gojo will guide your way forward."

Satoru Gojo instantly appeared behind the group, grabbing Suguru Geto and Eiji and pulling them to his front, adding Shoko Ieiri and Altoria below.

The heads of the five people gathered together.

"Don't get so close all of a sudden," Shoko Ieiri complained.

However, she didn't dodge.

After all, she knew that if she dodged now, Satoru Gojo would definitely pester her until she stopped.

"What are your thoughts on applying Reverse Cursed Technique to our Cursed Techniques?"

In front of Satoru Gojo, Eiji had no sense of shame. If he wanted to ask, he just asked.

Even if the reason for asking this question was to comprehend Reverse Cursed Technique and step on Satoru Gojo again.

Perhaps this was also Satoru Gojo's charm.

It made those close to him unable to be wary.

"Summoned Spirits, huh? I've met a few users of Summoned Spirits. They mostly focus on strengthening and healing their spirits. Those who have comprehended Reverse Cursed Technique usually exorcise Cursed Spirits themselves."

Satoru Gojo pinched his chin, lost in thought.

Having spirits and still going to fight yourself, as expected of Jujutsu Kaisen.

Eiji felt speechless.

"Eiji."

"Yeah?"

Eiji looked up at Satoru Gojo.

"What would happen if you output Cursed Energy to the Ten Shadows Technique as a whole?"

Not strengthening individual spirits, but the whole thing?

"Normally, it just enhances summoning speed and spirit strength. If they haven't been fully summoned from the shadows yet..."

Eiji fell into thought.

"Chimera Beast..."

Chimera Beasts were formed by fusing the spirits of the Ten Shadows Technique.

The spirits of the Ten Shadows Technique could only summon two at a time.

Therefore, Eiji's fusion of Qiongqi and Giant Elephant was also done two by two.

Eiji couldn't perform fusions like Sukuna, destroying useless spirits to let other spirits inherit their abilities.

Then, keeping the two spirits he wanted and directly fusing them together.

Sukuna's Chimera Beast, Jaws of the Beast, was formed by fusing Nue and Divine Dog: Umber, which inherited the powers of Orochi, Nue, and Tiger Grave.

He first summoned Tiger Grave and Nue, fused them, and then summoned Uroya for fusion.

It would be much slower, but Eiji was willing.

Because for Eiji, who had always lived alone, his spirits were like his family.

"I see, Chimera Beasts."

Suguru Geto nodded.

Eiji's understanding of Chimera Beasts came from the manga in his previous life, so he just followed suit. He wasn't really sure if Chimera Beasts were considered a forward application of the Cursed Technique.

"Then what would happen if you infused Reverse Cursed Technique into a Chimera Beast?"

Suguru Geto continued to ask.

"Heal the Chimera Beast's injuries..."

Eiji suddenly realized that he hadn't actually injected much positive energy from Reverse Cursed Technique into the Chimera Beast.

Previously, Nue was responsible for healing. Now that Nue had been fused into Giant Elephant, Giant Elephant took over.

Eiji formed hand seals and summoned Giant Elephant.
