Boogie Woogie

Info dumps incoming, along with a few explanations.

Give your thoughts on domain expansion and RCT for Boogie Woogie.

I changed the name of this fic to [JumpJutsu Kaisen] cuz I like this one better than [The Clapper].

Anyway, Enjoy~

(Todo's POV)

October 18, 2011, Hokkaido, about 1555km away from Kyoto.

I was currently about 5 foot 4 inches and massively ripped. I had learned quite a few things about cursed energy from Yuki. She was a good mentor, when she wanted to be....Which was quite rare for her, since she relished in abusing the shit out of me.

I was currently walking by myself in a park. Yuki seemingly had to go and fight a special grade curse she encountered by chance, so I was alone with my thoughts for a few hours.

I was about 11 years old right now, but looked more like a jacked up teenager who hit puberty early. The first and foremost thing I learned from her was to sense, and to a degree, control said cursed energy.

Currently, I was very sensitive to cursed energy. An example would be, me, being able to sense that semi grade 3 cursed spirit hiding under that dumpster about 183 meters away from me.

I also learned that grade 4 cursed spirits are almost always harmless, since they literally aren't able to kill. But they still are able to harm normal humans in different ways. There are various ways harmless things can do damage after all.

Oh, I even learned that most, if not all cursed spirits die if the amount of cursed energy in their body goes to 0. It was pretty obvious....

But, if humans run out of cursed energy, they become pretty tired all around , yet, they are still able to function normally.....Well, if the CE does run out, most sorcerers would be pretty useless, unless they have a cursed tool and crazy physical strength to match with it....

Basically, they don't die or freeze up, like I feared when I was younger....

(A/N: Reference to chapter 3. They can be tired due to various factors, so this could be wrong. I don't really know, since it's pretty vague in the actual source material.)

I pick up a small dried up branch along the path I was walking (In the park) and consciously imbue some cursed energy in it.

I then flow a tad bit, larger than normal amount of cursed energy through my Cursed Technique and activate Boogie Woogie with the next step I take.

The branch gets replaced by that Cursed spirit, which I then hold in between my strong arms.

I then coat a bit of Cursed energy along the skin of my hands and start twisting the cursed spirit.

It makes a twisted expression. I felt pure bliss when it started groaning from the pain, all the while making such a beautiful expression, that signified the excruciating cruelty it was experiencing.

It sadly vanished a few moments later.....

(A/N : Cursed Spirits vanish when they're killed. Except some special cases, like the death paintings, etc.)

There was just something satisfying about killing cursed spirits that made me so blissfully happy.

Heh.

Anyway, the reason I'm able to use Boogie Woogie in such a big distance, is connected with my interpretation of Boogie Woogie.

First, Imagine two things. They have their own cursed energy. What I do, is basically use my own cursed energy to establish a connection, or a 'line', between the two things. Then, with a disturbance of that 'line', which I do, with a either a 'clap' or with a strong enough change in (or) due to my body, the technique activates.

The reason I was able to switch with normal objects initially, was because I was subconsciously imbuing cursed energy into the object and linking it at the same time with another one. That's why it took me more Cursed Energy to activate Boogie Woogie on normal objects than switching around cursed spirits, which generally have their own Cursed energy (In ch-4).

This was because I just needed to link different cursed spirits with my CE. But, for normal objects, I needed to first imbue CE in them, and THEN link it with what I wanna switch.

I found out that me imbuing cursed energy into objects from a distance was something most can't do....guess I'm just built different. It's most likely either due to my 'Trait' or my Cursed Technique. Even Yuki doesn't know the actual reason....

I'm only able to imbue CE in objects which are around a 100 meter radius from me....I will have to figure out a way to increase this distance....

Comparatively though, the actual difference between the amount of CE used, wouldn't really make much of a difference due to the humongous amount of CE I have anyway.....

I also found out that the amount of CE used to activate my Cursed Technique is directly proportional to the distance between the things I want to swap with.

The problem with this is, the more the distance, the more prominent the cursed energy of the Thing being substituted should be, Since I had to perfectly sense it to activate my technique.

So, I'll have to focus on enhancing my Cursed Energy sensing to a really high degree, if I wanna become truly OP....

Switching with cursed tools is easier, since they do have their own CE. And normally, if I imbue cursed energy inside a normal object, it reduces it's durability drastically....I always thought why my old clothes, towels and various other objects in my house looked so worn down....

And, the more the distance, the more time would be required to form a 'link'. If the thing is near to me, near a 100 meter radius around me, it's basically instantaneous.

But, when things go further than that, the time to form a link becomes more and more. According to my calculations, it maybe adds about 0.01 seconds per 100 meter of distance.

So, if I wanted to 'link' two objects around a kilometer away, It would take around 0.1 seconds to do it.

But, after a 'link' is formed, the activation of the technique is about instantaneous.

If I wasn't able to pinpoint the exact position of the thing/object, I wouldn't be able to form a link.

It made sense, logically.

Another point to consider is that forming more than one 'link' will MASSIVELY increase the strain on my brain and CE. Even right now, the maximum number of simultaneous links I can form in an instant is about 7. The most limiting reason is the mental strain and the calculations required for it.

And to form those 7 links, in an instant, it would take about 2.5% of my total cursed energy....that is a freaking massive amount.

Along with this, the lower (or) the more complex the level of change made by my body, the more cursed energy I need to activate my technique. This rule is pretty weird and doesn't really follow direct logic. Like, activating the technique by walking requires more CE than clapping. Even if walking should be more simpler than clapping....meh, it works, and I'm here for it.

These are all the factors that my iteration of Boogie Woogie functions on.

The most likely reason the original Todo was unable to do most of this, is because he thought too linearly with the technique, or due to being with Yuki most of his life....a better word would be, 'not creative enough'.....or maybe it was just the fact that he just didn't have my 'trait'.....I don't truly know, but it works out for me, and that's enough....

(A/N: Refer to ch-2 for the trait.)

I wonder if the 'trait' is a big factor in determining this iteration of Boogie Woogie....I can't really know, but I hope not, cuz this type of understanding I had developed of my technique took me quite a few years....and if the 'Trait' takes most of the credit, then It'd be pretty sad for me....sigh

This Chapter was mostly needed to explain the small tidbits of 'plot holes' that people encountered.

Do you think that this version of Todo's technique is OP? Bruh, ever heard of Limitless, or idle transfiguration? Perhaps you should look at the straw doll technique too. Cursed speech as well, capisce?

Also, this is all the stuff I researched, so it is most likely true and not entirely wrong. Anyway, I'm going with this.

With this, most of the readers who pointed out my 'plot holes' can be at ease.....at least I hope you are.

Let's make some stones criteria. 150 stones = 1 bonus. [For now.]

Anyway, do continue to comment about any inconsistencies, or anything really....Cuz it. gives. me. motivation. and. ~happiness~
