Far from Itadori and the others' training ground, Miss Shoko, who should have been relaxing after healing several people, was forced to work overtime.
In exchange for Kakashi teaching them about Chakra, they had to teach Naruto and Sasuke about Cursed Energy.
However, during an earlier treatment, she had discovered a significant anomaly in Kakashi's body; his life force seemed excessively powerful.
Although all were human, the humans of the Naruto world were quite different from them; after all, those were bodies with 130 trillion somatic cells, not something Earthlings could compare to.
Furthermore, she found that neither of the two brats Kakashi brought with him was normal.
"Naruto, the power within you is immense, but it's not something you can use right now."
"However, I can help you draw out some of the negative emotions from it. Whether you can control this portion of Cursed Energy is up to you."
After a quick examination, Shoko realized that there was a seal inside Naruto, containing an unknown but immensely powerful force that he couldn't control.
As for why she could extract negative energy through the seal, what did Chakra have to do with her Cursed Energy?
The Uzumaki Clan's seals for the Tailed Beasts had little effect against Cursed Energy; of course, she couldn't break the seal either. Both sides were like lightsabers that couldn't cross, operating independently.
You seal your Chakra, I'll extract my negative emotions.
The Nine-Tails, sleeping inside the seal, inexplicably felt its mood improve significantly. It squinted an eye, saw nothing amiss, and lay back down.
Shoko couldn't even imagine why Naruto had so much negative emotion within him, especially since he seemed to have such a bright personality.
One reason for the abundance of negative emotions was that Naruto, as the Nine-Tails' jinchuriki, had always been hated by the villagers. This hatred had little effect in his original world, but after coming here, it became a 'curse'.
As for the other reason... she was extracting the Nine-Tails' negative emotions, and it was one with Naruto.
Nine-Tails: "Being sealed inside a human body and imprisoned every day? You'd be overflowing with negative emotions too."
"Oh oh oh! This power! I've never felt anything like it before!"
With the emergence of Cursed Energy transformed from negative emotions, Naruto instinctively used it to enhance his physique, feeling his body fill with power.
Shoko had been about to instruct him on how to use Cursed Energy, or rather, to see if he had a talent for controlling it, but before she could even speak, he had already mastered it on his own.
'Is this what the world of a genius is like?'
She watched Naruto, who was excitedly jumping around, expending energy, with a subtle gaze. The well-behaved Sasuke next to him seemed much more agreeable.
"Let that kid play for a bit; next, it's time to examine your body."
"I heard you have the ability to convert Chakra into Cursed Energy. Let me see it."
Shoko no longer paid attention to Naruto, who was bouncing around like a fox, experiencing his enhanced body, and instead turned to Sasuke.
"Mm." Sasuke, having witnessed her help Naruto 'awaken' his Cursed Energy, was considerably more convinced of her strength.
'Truly, calmer children are better. I'm still not used to handling kids; they're too restless.'
With Naruto as a comparison, Shoko was very satisfied with Sasuke's performance—that is, until he activated the power of his Cursed Seal.
Accompanied by a burning sensation on the back of his neck, Schwarzer's specialized conversion function activated, and Sasuke directly entered his Cursed Seal form.
Ever since absorbing the Veil that blocked Gojo Satoru, the Cursed Energy within him had surged. It wasn't obvious when he didn't activate his Cursed Seal, but now it burst forth all at once!
The extremely high-quality Cursed Energy turned his skin ashen, and a black wave of aura exploded outwards from him, sweeping away the surrounding leaves.
Sasuke himself hadn't expected this to happen. Fortunately, Shoko, being a teacher-level figure, reacted quickly by reinforcing her body with Cursed Energy, thus avoiding losing her composure like a roadside pebble kicked aside.
"You... are you okay?"
"I'm a teacher; how could I get injured so easily?"
Though she said this, Shoko subtly clasped her hands behind her back, activating Reverse Cursed Technique. As support staff, she had been too complacent to be injured like this.
The power Sasuke was now displaying could definitely be considered Special Grade, but it was... a Special Grade Cursed Spirit?!
Sensing the sudden change in Sasuke's aura, which was completely that of a Cursed Spirit, Shoko's face went pale; she was genuinely startled.
At the same time, the white-haired man with the blindfold appeared behind her and patted her shoulder. Shoko, already startled, immediately swung a punch.
"Hey! Miss Whistle, don't be so agitated, it's just me."
"How about it? Didn't I tell you there'd be a surprise?"
Gojo Satoru raised his hands slightly, appearing utterly harmless. Shoko's fist stopped mere centimeters from his nose, unable to proceed.
Looking at his signature smile, Shoko always felt like he was mocking her, and an unnamable anger flared within her.
"I didn't see the surprise you mentioned, but there were plenty of scares."
"What do you want again? I'm still examining your two new students."
Sasuke's Cursed Spirit transformation had indeed scared her, but considering they were Gojo Satoru's students, and with Itadori as a precedent, she had more or less adapted.
"I've come to arrange another new student for you. You can teach them Reverse Cursed Technique."
"A new student?"
Only then did Shoko notice the girl behind Gojo Satoru... another weirdo?
"Can you take on some normal students?"
She looked at Gojo Satoru with a face full of helplessness. In the past, she might have made a fuss, but now, as a tired adult, she quickly realized the flaw in her own words.
"Of course, I'm not saying you're abnormal, it's just your current appearance... never mind, what's your name?"
Turning her face to look at Schwarzer, her attitude was distinctly different. The Machine Ex Machina base body, identical to Schwi's, was too deceptive; she subconsciously treated her as a child.
"[Answer] This unit's name is Schwarzer."
"[Topic] I require knowledge regarding Reverse Cursed Technique; I need relevant data."
'What a strange way of speaking, but it unexpectedly suits her appearance; very mechanical.'
Due to Gojo Satoru's arrival, everyone ignored Sasuke on the side, but it didn't matter; he wasn't bothered by it.
Sasuke, who had activated his Cursed Seal form, was staring intently at Schwarzer. She made no attempt to conceal herself, and he recognized her at a glance: she was the mysterious person he had seen that night!
Was she here for him? Sasuke, with his self-assured perception,s first reaction was that she had come for him.
However, several minutes passed, and he was continuously ignored on the sidelines; no one paid him any mind.
It wasn't until Naruto, finished with his frolicking, noticed a few more people present and came over to stand beside him.
Under the gaze of both, Shoko was asked to teach Schwarzer Reverse Cursed Technique. The two, equally interested, didn't interrupt, quietly learning by observation.
