Although the sudden night rain disrupted their original plans, preventing Chika and the others from calculating the exact time the sun would rise, Muzan also lost his sense of time.
At this moment, Muzan is very similar to Kokushibo in his third state. Kokushibo was able to grow sharp blades all over his body with his Blood Demon Art. Now, Muzan, whose body is covered with crimson blades, can only be said to be even more imposing.
The crimson blades embedded in Muzan's body represent the hard work and dedication of the Demon Slayer Corps members in their efforts to kill him.
Scorching hot, bone-chilling, scalding hot...
Muzan wanted to escape but couldn't, and he couldn't even self-destruct. He also seemed unable to win a direct confrontation.
"You bastard!!!"
"You're about to go to hell, can't you just behave yourself?"
Muzan was furious at Chinatsu, but it was all in vain as usual. On the contrary, Chinatsu's sharp tongue continued to deliver powerful attacks.
Muzan gritted his teeth and attempted to use the White Lightning Impact for the fourth time, but just as he was about to do so, the dazzling sun finally broke free from the shackles of the dark clouds, and warm sunlight streamed down from it.
"What!!!"
Muzan turned his head sharply and looked up at the sky. As soon as a ray of sunlight shone on Muzan, he couldn't help but let out a painful scream.
He disregarded the need to build up his power for the impact and, out of fear of death, unleashed all the energy within him, nearly sending Chika, who was holding the Crimson Blade and impaling it on him, flying.
"Let go of me!!!"
Muzan's voice gradually became sharper, and he rolled his eyes, raised his head, and roared ferociously.
No...no...cannot be exposed to sunlight again...proliferate the flesh...protect the main body...
Muzan began to proliferate large amounts of flesh all over his body, attempting to envelop his original form.
"Sun and Moon Flow - Form One - Sun and Moon Shining Together!"
Chinatsu swiftly unleashed a slash, instantly shattering the flesh that Muzan had painstakingly grown, exposing Muzan's true form to the outside world once again.
"Sunlight! Don't...come near me!!!"
Muzan waved his hands, making meaningless movements. His flesh continued to proliferate, but with Chinatsu by his side, he could never successfully use the proliferating flesh to avoid the sunlight.
After Chinatsu repeatedly stopped Muzan's flesh from multiplying, a look of despair appeared on Muzan's face, mixed with a hint of pity, as if he were begging Chinatsu to let him go.
Of course, the only response to Muzan's despairing face was Chinatsu's cold and ruthless one.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Chinatsu swiftly and ruthlessly unleashed another slash at Muzan. Struggling under the sunlight was already unbearable, let alone having to endure Chinatsu's sword technique.
Despair gradually faded from Muzan's face, replaced by a ruthless desire to drag Chinatsu down with him.
Despite Chika's sharp attacks with her crimson blade, she was actually nearing her limit, or rather, every swing of her sword was pushing her limits.
Now, Chika's body is like a candle flickering in the wind, no different from a fragile human body.
Since that's the case!
Muzan stared menacingly at Chika, his mouth agape, and a high-energy projectile, resembling the classic "Tailed Beast Ball" technique from the Naruto anime, condensed.
This is Muzan's final blow!
"Whether it's heaven or hell, come with me and leave this meaningless world!!!"
Even before this final, concentrated attack by Muzan has been unleashed, its immense power is evident.
Just as Muzan was excitedly gathering his strength to shoot at Chinatsu, Chinatsu kicked upwards and struck Muzan's chin. The sudden and powerful impact forced Muzan's head to twist from facing Chinatsu to facing upwards.
Bang!!!!!!
This astonishing power came from Muzan's "Swan Song" which shot into the sky, and the deafening explosion completely shattered the dark clouds that the sun had not yet fully escaped.
Unlike the faint rays of sunlight before, the overwhelming sunlight shone down from the sky, and Muzan stood frozen in place, no longer struggling, because that attack was his "all".
The sunlight shone on Muzan's body. Before being burned to ashes by the sunlight, Muzan turned around and looked at Chinatsu once more, wanting to utter a vulgar curse at her.
Unexpectedly, Chika had already plugged her ears with her fingers as if she knew what was going on, and Muzan's last and final attack was rendered ineffective.
Under the dual blows of physical and mental damage, Muzan's body was completely reduced to dust and vanished with the passing breeze.
Night falls, dawn breaks, the rain stops, the sun rises.
As Muzan's attack pierced through the clouds, a colorful rainbow appeared along with the warm morning sun, draping the sky in a magnificent robe.
Holding the Crimson Blade in one hand, Chinatsu stood beside Muzan, who had been reduced to ashes, her head slightly raised as she gazed at the rainbow in the sky, as if her soul had been captivated by it.
We won? Did we really win?
Could this just be a dream?
With dazed eyes, Chika turned her head to look at the group of people not far away who were also somewhat stunned. Although they were all panting and covered in injuries, they were all still alive, without having activated their markings or lost any limbs.
Everything was so beautiful, so beautiful that it felt like a dream.
Mitsuri hugged Obanai Iguro tightly, crying loudly, "We won! We really won!!!"
Obanai Iguro was startled by Mitsuri's sudden hug. The color on his face rose rapidly at a visible speed, as if steam was billowing from the top of his head.
With Mitsuri's shout, the slightly delicate atmosphere was finally broken, and excitement and joy enveloped the surroundings.
This is wonderful, this isn't a dream...
After confirming everything, Qianxia finally collapsed to the ground, her eyes fixed on the beautiful rainbow in the sky, a wave of exhaustion and drowsiness washing over her.
Upon seeing Chinatsu collapse, everyone rushed to her side. Words of concern for her escaped their lips, but Chinatsu couldn't hear them clearly and soon lost consciousness...
