Whether Chinatsu was destroyed or not is another matter, but the Infinity Castle buildings in that area were completely destroyed, leaving only a bare flat ground.
Despite having the ultimate "no harm even with smoke" flag, Chinatsu was still badly injured by Muzan's series of blows. If Chinatsu hadn't been extraordinary, Muzan's attack would have sealed the outcome of the battle.
Chinatsu's face was splattered with blood, but she didn't care. She simply raised her arm to wipe away the sticky blood, but her arm was also covered in blood. Wiping it only made the blood coverage on Chinatsu's face even more noticeable.
Chika was speechless at her own actions. After a brief silence, she simply stopped wiping her face and continued to stare at Muzan directly in front of her.
Although her face was splattered with blood, it paled in comparison to the crimson gleam in her eyes.
Seeing Chinatsu in this state made Muzan, who wanted to see Chinatsu break down, feel extremely bored.
Pain... Even Muzan has the ability to feel pain, but ordinary attacks cannot even cause him effective damage, so he rarely feels pain.
Muzan looked at Chika, who was covered in wounds, and the corners of his mouth still turned up slightly. He believed that even if Chika could withstand one round of his attacks, what about the second and third rounds? His stamina was inexhaustible!
The victor is always the one who takes the initiative!
Muzan's bone whips, tube whips, and spiked whips were ready to strike, while Chika quietly gripped her crimson sword. In the brief silence, Muzan's second attack came again.
Chika's crimson blade kept clashing with Muzan's whips in an attempt to block them, but there were simply too many whips. Two fists can't fight four hands, let alone a single blade against a double-digit number of whips.
Even a mere glancing blow resulted in a large amount of blood spurting out. The entire situation was completely one-sided against Muzan, and Chika had already exhausted all her strength just by defending against Muzan's attacks.
These scenes were witnessed by the crowd in the distance, whose clenched fists were covered in sweat.
"Damn it! You guys can tolerate me just watching Chika get beaten up? I can't stand it!!!"
Despite the excruciating pain from his wounds, Shinazugawa Sanemi gripped his Nichirin Blade and prepared to charge towards Muzan.
But he had only taken one step when he was stopped by an arm that Uzui Tengen had stretched out beside him.
"Are you trying to stop me?!"
Shinazugawa Sanemi stared wide-eyed as he turned to look at Uzui Tengen, only to see Uzui Tengen's eyes intently fixed on Chinatsu and Muzan, with a hint of... excitement on his face.
Sanemi Shinazugawa was completely baffled by the expression on Tengen Uzui's face, but Gyomei Himejima, standing to the side, noticed something amiss.
"The number of times Chinatsu has been injured... has decreased."
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, Shinazugawa Sanemi immediately focused his attention on the battlefield between Chinatsu and Muzan again. Although Chinatsu was still being hit by some of Muzan's whips while wielding her Nichirin Blade to defend against his attacks, the number of hits seemed to have decreased.
What's going on?
Everyone present was puzzled by this phenomenon but did not know the reason, except for one person.
"Ha...haha...as expected of Chika...she did it...it was truly magnificent..." Uzui Tengen said excitedly.
Muzan, who was going head-to-head with Chinatsu, gradually realized something was wrong. Previously, ten lashes would strike Chinatsu at least four or five times, but now he could only manage one or two...
No, it's still decreasing!
By the time Muzan realized this, it was too late. Muzan's seemingly chaotic attack had transformed into musical notes in a very long musical score in Chika's mind.
The expression on Chinatsu's face, which had remained unchanged, finally changed, but it wasn't the despair that Muzan wanted to see; instead, it was Chinatsu's smile.
"My...sheet is finished!!!"
Chinatsu took a swift step forward, and her previously completely defensive stance was reversed in an instant. Chinatsu's swordsmanship entered an offensive rhythm.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The long whips released by Muzan were all blocked by Chika's crimson blade without exception. From the moment Chika completed her spell pattern, it was Muzan who had to divert his attention to defend against the attacks from Chika's crimson blade.
[Score]: A unique technique passed down from the Sound Pillar Usui Tengen. Through continuous analysis during battles with enemies, the rhythm of enemy attacks is transformed into musical notes and scores for playing, thereby gaining complete control over the enemy's attacks.
This is a technique that Chinatsu specifically visited and learned from the Sound Hashira, Tengen Uzui, long before the story of the Entertainment District arc had even begun.
Originally, I thought that even if I couldn't learn "Transparent World", I could learn other technologies to make up for my shortcomings, which would definitely come in handy in future battles.
And now is the perfect time!
Entering the "Screen" state, Chinatsu switched her breathing to "Hinokami Kagura," and a dazzling sword aura, as bright as the sun, surged from her crimson blade.
Waltz, Azure Sky, Blazing Red Mirror, Illusory Rainbow, Train, Scorching Sun Flame, Sunflower Strike, Flying Wheel Sun Flame, Turning Sun at Sunset, Radiant Grace, Dragon Halo, Flame Dance.
[Sun Breathing, Thirteenth Form]!
After completing the "score", Chinatsu decisively chose to start the cycle of Sun Breathing sword techniques. As long as she could complete the cycle, she could not only save her own stamina, but also form an absolute suppression against Muzan.
Muzan gritted his teeth as he watched Chika's increasingly familiar movements, and a sense of fear welled up in his heart.
Lose... I'll lose?
Losing to someone other than that man?
Impossible! I am Muzan Kibutsuji, not only the chosen one but also destined to become the strongest and most perfect being in the world. There is absolutely no way I could lose!
Muzan's pupils turned white, and a powerful energy surged from his body. With a roar, Muzan unleashed a wide-area, powerful shockwave centered on himself.
This is one of Muzan's trump cards, and also an ultimate skill that he has never used against anyone before.
Not only does it have a very wide attack range, but it also has a very powerful attack capability, which can cause the nerves of the hit target to become disordered, resulting in spasms and rendering the person unable to move, thus causing death.
The white light engulfed everything around Muzan, with lightning flashing intermittently, its immense power seemingly capable of destroying the entire Infinity Castle.
