The Cursed Needles are equipment used by the monkey army controlled by Zeman.
This equipment is used to trap and control creatures from Minus, also this weapon is the one responsible for the "Minus Curse". In the English version, the staffs armed with this needle were called Minus Staffs.
While the needle is turned to look like a Minus sign, time flows backwards or has some backwards effect near the Cursed Needle, such as reversing a being's personality, and causing things to roll uphill or bounce upstairs. When it is turned to look like a Plus sign, the monkey soldiers can capture spirits in stone tablets.
Also, it can be assumed that while it appears as a Plus sign, it reverses all that is caused while in Minus mode.
"Zeman the Ape King" and "Magician Ape" also use this equipment.
