Tachibana Yosuke observed the purest newborn form of souls, brimming with Cursed Energy, their combination being almost equal to his own.
In their pure newborn state, they also weren't dispersing.
"Hey, why not seal them in me?"
Teruhashi came close to him and looked at the transparent balls of Cursed Energy.
She cannot observe souls.
In fact, Tachibana can observe them only now that he has a deeper understanding of his Cursed Technique. Otherwise, he should have been able to see the souls of the murderers who used one of them's Cursed Technique to turn themselves invisible.
"These are not just balls of Cursed Energy, but souls of those guys in their newborn state."
Tachibana said, looking at Teruhashi.
Teruhashi thought for a bit, and steeled her resolve.
She almost died just now.
She has a great Cursed Technique, but without good enough amount of Cursed Energy.
If she wants to survive this death game, she has to let go of her morals. To gain points, she will have to eventually kill someone, even if it is a Cursed Spirit.
And others will definitely try to kill them. She can't just stay behind Tachibana to be protected.
"If they are in their souls are in newborn state, doesn't it mean that they are basically dead? With no consciousness or anything?"
"Ah..."
It just clicked Tachibana, that he has effectively erased the self of the group instead of 'saving' them.
The rush of Reverse Cursed Technique for the first time has made him high like Gojo Satarou.
Still, he couldn't save them without proper bodies. And in his high, he accepted the death of strangers.
He nodded in realization.
"You are right. Though I don't know any method of sealing. You should cosplay as Minato and seal it in yourself. Now that I know how to heal, Minato's Flying Thunder God will be very helpful in letting us escape."
"Yeah."
Moreover, with a Jinchuriki seal, her body will slowly get used to the large amount of Cursed Energy without getting overwhelmed. And once her body adapts to it, she will be able to remove the seal and use the entirety of Cursed Energy on her own.
Not everyone is Yuji or Megumi who can not get their souls crushed by a powerful soul with a Cursed Energy.
So, they went to the mall for Teruhashi to replenish her supply of cosplays, which were destroyed in the Domain Expansion.
While thinking about it, Tachibana remembered the time when he was writing a Mechamaru fanfiction in his past life.
Cursed Corpse with independent consciousness and self-sustaining Cursed Energy, like Panda, can be created using three compatible souls that observe each other.
If Mechamaru had known this method and created an army of self-sustaining Mechamarus, he might have survived against Mahito and Kenjaku.
Anyway, these Newborn souls are compatible to each other. In fact, they are equal.
So technically, everyone is equal in birth and equal in death, considering the reincarnations being different paths.
But compatibility aside, without egos, can they really be used for Cursed Corpse creation?
He put three souls in his katana.
They weren't interacting with each other at all.
"Reincarnation."
After flooding his Cursed Energy through the katana which now wielded three newborn souls, he used Reincarnation.
Surprisingly enough, the three souls changed shape from sphere to katana. And the three started interacting with each other.
'Wait a second... since when can I see souls? Maybe ever since I understood more about my Cursed Technique?'
Moreover, he just discovered that Reincarnation changes the shape of the soul to that of the vessel.
'Oh! And it seems that body itself has an effect with the shape of the soul. That's why my height and looks are similar to my past life?'
He had chalked it up to coincidence till now. But it's quite possible that isn't the case.
Body effects the soul just as soul effects the body. That's why he was childish and immature as a kid in his second life, despite being a high scooler freshman in his past life.
"Senpai, there is a problem."
"Hmm?"
Tachibana turned back, and Teruhashi was cosplaying as Minato, looking embarrassed.
"You know, a Shadow Clone is supposed to be a B-rank jutsu. And Eight Trigrams seal is an S-rank jutsu. I can't perform the sealing."
"So why don't you use another weaker seal? That doesn't consume much Cursed Energy?"
She thought about it for some time, and shook her head.
"I can't do that. I can only do things that I know who I am cosplaying as has done, not what they most likely can do.
Like, I can't create a storage seal, which Minato definitely can."
"Hmm... then how about a binding vow like this, in return of 10 days worth of Cursed Energy right now, you will not have Cursed Energy of your own for ten days next month?"
"That can work! But... Oh right. Even if I myself don't have Cursed Energy for ten days next month, I can just draw it from these souls!"
"Yeah."
So, Teruhashi did just that, and became the Jinchuriki of these Newborn souls. Thus, the problem of her small amount of Cursed Energy is solved.
