"Why can't I?" The process of binding the restrictions went smoothly. Everyone except for the giant panda had completed their bindings. Although the giant panda had also been bound, it could not participate in the special training. This was because the giant panda was a cursed corpse, a creation. Its strength had been fixed at the time of creation, and the only things it could develop were its personality and combat experience.
Of course, strictly speaking, the giant panda's strength could still be increased—by reinforcing the core cursed energy within it—but that was no longer related to the special training that Daniel had planned.
"This method is something only humans can cultivate."
Daniel had several ways to enhance people's strength, but methods like Chakra or True Qi weren't something he intended to teach. Instead, he planned to use a breathing technique from Demon Slayer to help increase the strength of people like Fushiguro Megumi and others.
The Demon Slayer Corps used breathing techniques to combat demons, and if a jujutsu sorcerer learned this technique, their strength would undoubtedly increase when combined with cursed energy. This would reduce unnecessary losses when dealing with curses.
The reason for setting the restrictions was not something Daniel came up with. He wasn't worried about the breathing technique being leaked. While it could significantly enhance a person's physical condition, in the modern world, even if it was leaked, the threat wouldn't be great. After all, we live in a society dominated by technology.
Jujutsu sorcerers rarely used modern weapons against curses, mainly because they were ineffective, but if used against humans, modern weapons would hold a significant advantage.
Additionally, in the modern world, aside from a few individuals, most people wouldn't persist in practicing the breathing techniques even if they were taught. Tanjiro had remarkable talent and learned the Water Breathing technique, but it still took him two years of training. Only people with extraordinary talent, like Kanao Tsuyuri, could master it quickly.
In Daniel's view, those who could display the full power of the breathing techniques in the shortest time were people like Zen'in Maki, who had both heavenly gifts and cursed bindings, and people like Todo Aoi, who had strong physical bodies.
Others would at most just increase their strength a little.
However, since Todo Aoi was from another jujutsu high school, Gojo Satoru wasn't planning to teach him the breathing techniques just yet. He planned to wait until after the exchange conference.
The restrictions were proposed by Gojo Satoru. While the breathing technique might eventually be leaked, Gojo didn't want it to spread immediately. One of the main reasons for this was the existence of the "pattern" (Inumaki's curse). The most dangerous part of practicing the breathing technique was precisely here.
The "pattern" could greatly enhance an individual's strength, but the fact that it couldn't allow someone to live past the age of twenty-five was a fatal limitation. The Demon Slayer Corps was unconcerned about this because they were focused on slaying demons, but in the modern world, very few would be willing to make such a sacrifice.
"I will teach you the breathing techniques. Through special breathing, it can enhance your physical capabilities and release all the energy within your body."
After the restrictions were set, Gojo Satoru left, leaving the rest to Daniel. As a special grade jujutsu sorcerer, Gojo had a lot of work to do.
"Basically, it's all Water Breathing," Daniel explained. Water Breathing was the gentlest and most adaptable of all the techniques. Fushiguro Megumi, Kugisaki Nobara, and the others were very suited to it. Even Gojo Satoru practiced Water Breathing.
However, Zen'in Maki, perhaps because of her celestial curse-binding abilities, was suitable for not just Water Breathing, but also Flame Breathing. Ultimately, she decided to learn Flame Breathing.
"To increase your strength before the exchange conference, you need to fully master the breathing techniques and be able to use them at any time."
The breathing technique could greatly improve one's strength in two stages: one was the "pattern," and the other was "total concentration breathing."
"That giant panda, you will train with them."
Since Fushiguro Megumi and the others were jujutsu sorcerers and their physical abilities were already superior to ordinary humans, they didn't need the same kind of training as ordinary people. Therefore, Daniel's focus was on Total Concentration Breathing. As for who would supervise them, while Daniel himself would be the most suitable, he wasn't interested in working too hard. So, he handed the responsibility to the giant panda.
Supervision during the day wasn't a big deal, but at night, Total Concentration Breathing required continuous use, even during sleep. While the Head Pillar had three helpers, Daniel didn't want to stay up all night supervising them, so the giant panda was the best choice.
"What kind of joke is this? We have to sleep together?" Nobara immediately protested when she heard they would have to sleep in the same room. However, her protest was useless. Since she was the only one opposed, Zen'in Maki even seemed eager about it.
"This training looks a lot more comfortable." After teaching the breathing techniques and assigning the giant panda to supervise, Daniel left. Fushiguro Megumi and the others were so focused on improving their strength that Daniel didn't need to supervise them. Even Nobara wouldn't slack off.
As jujutsu sorcerers, they knew that every time they exorcised a curse, accidents could happen. To avoid these accidents, they wouldn't be lazy.
Daniel went to where Itadori Yuji was. Yuji hadn't participated in the breathing technique training because Gojo Satoru had been training him to use cursed energy. Having suddenly obtained a large amount of cursed energy left by Sukuna, Yuji was like Jing Tianming receiving Yan Dan's powers—he couldn't use it properly yet.
Gojo's training method was to have Yuji watch movies while constantly outputting cursed energy.
While breathing techniques could increase physical strength, cursed energy was more important. After all, cursed energy was a form of power. Even in the world of Demon Slayer, except for the creator of the Sun Breathing technique, Yorimitsu, those who practiced breathing techniques did not exceed the limits of their power.
This training was certainly more comfortable than what Fushiguro Megumi and the others were going through.
"Is it over there?" Gojo Satoru asked.
"They have good talent and have learned it. Now, it's just about gradual training. I've assigned the giant panda to supervise them. How's it going over here?"
"Progress is good," Gojo replied. Yuji's personality was very similar to the Head Pillar's. People like them, with simple and direct personalities, made great progress once they committed. It was like Luffy—after two years of training, although still far from the Four Emperors, his strength was at least on par with a Vice Admiral.
"Gojo-sama, it's about time, we should head out," a voice interrupted. It was from Ijichi Seigo, the assistant supervisor at Jujutsu High, who was also one of the heads of the windows. He was capable of using the "Curtain" technique.
A "Curtain" was a technique that could conceal a designated area from the public, used to prevent ordinary people from being aware of curses. Since fighting curses in the open was difficult, the Curtain was created for this purpose.
The Curtain's range could vary greatly—anywhere from a single school to an entire city. The Curtain was one of Daniel's unexpected gains after arriving in this world.
"Let's go now. Isn't it too early?" Gojo said, looking at Ijichi.
Ijichi sweated at Gojo's words. Gojo was notorious for being late, sometimes by an hour or even half a day. This trait was very similar to Kakashi's.
To ensure Gojo was on time, Ijichi had been ordered to get him to the meeting room without delay. So, at that moment, Ijichi was stuck between the higher-ups and Gojo, walking a tightrope.
"Alright, let's go," Gojo said, seeing Ijichi continue bowing in respect.
"Thank you." Ijichi, relieved, immediately nodded and drove off, understanding that something serious must have come up to make Gojo change his mind.
