'Moreover, that's not all!' Thought Yuta as he kept continuously clenching and releasing his fists trying to determine to what level his body had mutated.

'This...'

'My physical strength actually increased by such a large margin, It's completely incomparable to before!'

'I didn't expect switching paths to have such an effect...'

'Moreover, It seems that even my soul was also affected by the transformation as even though I can't clearly tell how strong it had become, I can at least tell that it's stronger than before.'

Sensing all of the minute changes and roughly determining his current power level, Yuta couldn't help but feel excited as a joyful look appeared on his usually calm and indifferent face.

'There is also the Reverse Cursed Technique, after switching energies, not only did It not lose it, but its effects even increased.'

'Additionally, the Neutral Energy originating from the Dream Path also holds suppressive power over Cursed Energy which is very similar to how Positive energy suppresses it.'

Realizing this, Yuta who had been a bit nervous about losing some of his core abilities finally relaxed as he heaved a sigh of relief.

'This is even better than I had previously expected!'

However, while feeling excited, Yuta didn't forget for a moment his current situation as his attention was then quickly switched toward Sukuna.

Even though he had been gauging his current power level, Yuta never actually moved his attention away from Sukuna as he was still wary of this formidable foe.

It's just that as much as he wanted to fully focus on him, he still had to determine his current arsenal before being able to move on to battling him.

However, now that he finished with the necessary part, the battle can finally begin.

'This form...It's truly perfect for Jujutsu, It can even be called the perfect evolution for that power system.'

'Moreover, his physical power is probably quite powerful so I should avoid direct confrontation unless necessary.'

'Even with my improved physical strength, I am most likely far from being his opponent in that field so it's better to keep it a medium or long-ranged battle and to take advantage of my superiority in other aspects.'

You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

Thinking of this, Yuta unsheathed his sword and covered it with Neutral Energy while adding Sukuna's CT which he had just learned on top of it.

'I really like this cursed technique, it perfectly complements my fighting style without me having to change anything to accommodate it.'

'It's decided! This will be my first 'Pasted' technique, moreover, with Sukuna here, it will be quite easy to push its level to the absolute limit.'

It's just that meanwhile, when Yuta was observing Sukuna and preparing a battle plan, the latter was also doing the same.

'That energy surrounding his sword, it's completely new...'

'Huh?!

'Did he master my CT so quickly?'

'Moreover, he even applied it in a different manner to how I used it earlier; It appears that his copying isn't fixed, and instead, he can alter it as he wishes.'

'It seems that I'll have to be a bit careful with what I show in this battle, be it because of h.'

Rubbing his chin, Sukuna maintained an indifferent expression despite the current state of affairs.

'Hand-to-hand combat may be my best course of action here...'

'However, there are still a couple of things that I want to try before that.'

*Bzzzzz*

Finally organizing his thoughts and getting an overall view of his opponent, Sukuna didn't hesitate any longer as he immediately began his attack.

*Swish*

*Swish*

*Swish*

In an instant, a fishnet-like wave of cutting power rushed toward Yuta who was preparing his attack immediately forcing him to switch back into a more defensive posture.

'If you can do it, then I can also do it!'

*Swish*

*Swish*

Immediately responding with an identical attack of his own, Yuta watched as the two nets made contact causing the atmosphere to boom, the wind to howl, and the space to squeak and creak like an old wooden floor.

*Bzzzzz*

*Squeak*

*Crackle*

However, this stand-off only lasted for a couple of moments before the two attacks completely counteracted each other with both disappearing at the same time.

Seeing this, Sukuna shook his head lightly as he couldn't help but start mocking Yuta.

"You are quite boring, it seems that you can't come up with anything new."

Saying this, Sukuna took advantage of this pause to further analyze Yuta's ability.

'It's confirmed now. There is no limit to the copied CT. However, it's still unknown if he can copy domain expansion and abilities linked to cursed tools.'

'I highly doubt that, but considering that this is a new power system nothing is impossible.'

'It's a pity that I don't have any of my cursed tools on me right now.'

It's just that as Sukuna was further analyzing Yuta's ability, the latter also took advantage of this time to finally prepare and accumulate energy for his next attack.

"Then here's something new!"

*Bzzzzzzzzz*

*Swish*

Finally accumulating enough Neutral Energy and Slashing force around his sword's blade, Yuta slashed forward toward Sukuna who immediately noticed something wrong with the attack.

'Something's off...'

'Could it be that unknown energy he added to the attack?'

Not wanting to test how effective this energy is with his body especially knowing that he might still have to fight later on, Sukuna immediately opted for the safe bet as he decided to boost his ct by using the mouth present of his stomach to chant and the lower two hands for hand signs.

'This should be enough.'

*Bzzzz*

*Swish*

Launching a counter-attack of his own, Sukuna watched intently as he wanted to try and gather some new information from the upcoming clash.

However, just then, something completely unexpected happened which completely overturned his previous assumptions.

*PUFFF*

'How...'
