Dear (y/n) (l/n) already has troubles as a demon/human hybrid. But having a step-brother that harbors a cursed king, is definitely something she didn't sign up for.
The three berserkers continued their fight with a few hits until Todou smiled and caught Yuji and (Y/n)'s fist with his forehead. Lightly shoving them away before lifting up.
Todou:"What a beautiful way to knock me down! However, that's not what I want you two to devour right now. Both your Divergent fist and Vanishing palm are created by your cursed energy lagging behind your superhuman physical prowess, when normally it would never lag. They are tricky moves"
(Y/n):"So what's your point?"
Todou:"Your average sorcerer wouldn't know what happened, and they'd be left disoriented. They carry plenty of force, for opponents on that level at least!
Hearing Yuji began having flashbacks of their fight against Mahito and how they weren't able to finish him off.
Todou:"But it won't work against special-grades. What will you do, Imoto and best friend"
Yuji:"Imbue our full strength with cursed energy at the right moment"
Todou:"Good. So then why are your curse energies lagging? It's because you're channeling it!"
Yuji:"Huh? Wait, I thought we were talking about channeling it faster..."
Todou:"We channel cursed energy. Many sorcerers do this consciously. The theory is that cursed energy extracted from negative emotions, starts in the navel and is traveled throughout the body. They say it flows from the navel to the chest, then shoulders, arms, and finally fists. But this perception of the body as individual parts is what delays curse energy"
(Y/n):"Oh, I guess that kinda explains why I nearly passed out last time"
Todou:"The idea of channeling curse energy isn't wrong in itself. But that's only the first step! You can't let yourself remain too trapped by that concept. The better the sorcerer, the harder it is to read the flow of their curse energy. From a different reason from why yours is. Do we think with our guts? Do we express anger with our heads? Listen to me, Itadori, (Y/n), we exist in this world with our entire mind, body, and soul as one whole. It's such a given that everyone forgets about it"
Yuji:".....Thanks Todou"
(Y/n):"Yeah, I think we get it now"
Upon saying this (Y/n) closed her eyes and allowed her curse energy to flow throughout her. Opening them once she channeled enough in her claws and sent a slashing wavelength at a nearby tree. The wooden plant stood in place for seconds until it exploded into pieces.

Yuji:"*smile* Whoa! That was amazing (y/n)!"
(Y/n):"*smile* Yeah, now I can use Vanishing palm without having to touch anyone, and it only takes five seconds to effect instead of a minute"
Todou:"Very nice Imoto, I hope you know I won't hold back..."
Yuji followed (Y/n)'s lead and generated his curse energy as each of them countered each other's hits.
