Gyutaro gritted his teeth and charged toward Chinatsu and the others, unaware of the gravity of his actions.
Of course, under these circumstances, no matter what choice Gyutaro made, it would be futile. Faced with the three men wielding crimson swords, Gyutaro personally headed towards "hell."
Gyutaro is very strong. The title of Upper Moon Six was given to Gyutaro by Muzan. Although Daki's existence gave Gyutaro the characteristic of "not dying when beheaded, but having to cut off both of their heads at the same time", it also limited Gyutaro's strength.
Moreover, he is an assassin who uses poison, and such a character setting is already a low level of skill to directly confront others. But there is nothing that can be done about it, since Chinatsu has Nezuko who can cure poison.
As Gyutaro rushed toward the trio, halving the distance between them, he finally sensed something amiss with the Nichirin Blades in their hands. But by the time he realized it, it was too late.
In just a few seconds, Gyutaro received three slashes from three different directions.
The first one came from Tengen; he was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Gyutaro.
Although Gyutaro was somewhat surprised, he still used his crimson scythe to defend himself at the last moment, but his crimson scythe was instantly cut in half.
Because Tengen's sword is a crimson blade, and his blood-red short scythe is a product of his flesh and blood, the blood-red short scythe is completely unable to withstand the damage from the crimson blade.
The second attack came from Chinatsu. She was slightly slower than Tengen, but the moment she took a hit from Tengen's Crimson Blade, Gyutaro's mind went into a tremor that lasted even less than a second, which prevented him from blocking Chinatsu's attack.
The third attack came from Tanjiro. Tanjiro's speed was completely within Gyutaro's control, but he was still slashed by the two people in front of him.
You must know that those are Crimson Blades! They increase damage and also have a healing-preventing effect. Gyutaro felt a pain that was more intense than all the pain he had experienced before becoming a demon combined.
Facing Tanjiro's slash, Gyutaro gritted his teeth and let out a defiant roar, as if to say, "Just because I couldn't block the two people in front of me doesn't mean I can't block your slash!!"
Although he was unarmed, Gyutaro said he still had his hands. In that brief moment, Gyutaro came up with a brilliant idea called "catching a blade barehanded".
Catching a blade barehanded, that's impressive.
But to catch the Bloodthirsty Blade... that's pretty ruthless!
As Gyutaro's hands rubbed against Tanjiro's Blood-Exploding Blade, Gyutaro tried his best to clamp Tanjiro's Blood-Exploding Blade, while Tanjiro also tried his best to slash downwards.
The moment the two made contact, Gyutaro thought he could do it, but the next instant, the flames on the Blood Explosion Blade ignited his entire body through his hands.
With a "whoosh!" sound, Gyutaro was slashed to the ground by Tanjiro, his head rolling twice on the ground with a thud.
Meanwhile, on another battlefield not far away, Daki was stunned to see her older brother being cut down on the ground.
She had been urging Gyutaro to finish his fight and come help her.
Daki: I told you to end the battle, not for someone else to end you!!!
As Daki went berserk, she unleashed a massive amount of ribbons from her entire body, attempting to engulf Inosuke and Zenitsu. Despite the sheer number of ribbons, she was already powerless against Inosuke and Zenitsu, and her loss of composure only exacerbated the situation.
Inosuke used his serrated Nichirin Blade to create an opportunity for Zenitsu, who seized the opportunity and performed the First Form of Thunder Breathing.
"Thunder Breathing - First Form: Thunderclap Flash - Divine Speed!"
Thunder Breathing has a total of six sword techniques, but Zenitsu only knows one, yet he has honed it to its peak. He can use the "Six-Hit Combo" multiple times in an instant, as well as the super-enhanced strike called "Godspeed".
With a deafening roar and a flash of lightning, Zenitsu arrived before Daki with a speed that surpassed Daki's reaction time, slashing her neck with his sword.
If Daki were in a calm state, Zenitsu would never use this move lightly, because he might not be able to cut off Daki's head. But now that she has lost her composure, Daki is even a beat slower in defending.
With another "whoosh!", Zenitsu's Nichirin Blade pierced through Daki's neck, severing her head from her body.
Daki's head fell from the sky, and after tumbling, it finally rolled to the side of Gyutaro's head.
The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock. They had never imagined that it would end like this. Everything had happened so suddenly that neither of them could react.
Of course, Tanjiro was also a little taken aback, because the person who ultimately severed the head of Upper Moon Six was not Chinatsu or Tengen, but himself.
Tanjiro's hands trembled with emotion. Recalling the helplessness he felt when facing Akaza during the Mugen Train battle, he suddenly felt that his efforts had not been in vain.
As he thought about it, tears welled up in his eyes. Tanjiro lowered his head and quickly reached out to wipe away the tears that had just started to well up.
Now is not the time to shed tears!
Seeing Tanjiro's forced composure, Chinatsu walked over to him and subconsciously reached out to pat his head.
"What's wrong, sister?"
"It's nothing, I just suddenly wanted to pat your head."
"oh."
Tanjiro did not reject Chinatsu's head-patting behavior and let her touch his head.
The heartwarming scene between her and Tanjiro contrasted sharply with the civilized banter between the two heads not far away.
"How could you lose! It's all because of you! That's why I got distracted and got my head chopped off by those two brats!!!"
"Huh? You still have the nerve to talk back to me? If you had let me out in the first place, none of this would have happened!"
"Are you an idiot?!"
"Who are you calling an idiot!"
Gyutaro's head and Daki's head stared at each other, both gritting their teeth and venting their emotions.
At first, it was just simple complaining, but with such frequent insults, many words that were not originally meant to be said came out of their mouths without thinking.
"You're so ugly! How could you possibly be my brother? We're absolutely not related by blood. We don't look alike at all! You're a useless piece of trash, all you're good for is being strong. And now you've even lost! You're just a pathetic, ugly freak!!!"
The princess, who hated ugly people, roared angrily at the ugly Gyutaro. All her previous trash talk was far less powerful than this attack. Gyutaro's pupils trembled, and he gasped for breath.
Just as he was about to lose his temper and start cursing, a string of memories from his human days flooded back, swallowing the trash words that were already on his throat.
His name is indeed Gyutaro, but his sister isn't called Daki, which sounds awful; her name is Ume...
