Infinite Train News
It was a dark early morning, the sky was thick with fog, and the Tomioka residence was completely silent. Suddenly, the rapid flapping of wings and the hoarse cry pierced the silence.
"Emergency! Emergency! Infinity Train! Rengoku Kyojuro has encountered an Upper Rank Three! Requesting support! Requesting support!"
The crows' cries echoed repeatedly in the courtyard with unprecedented panic.
Shiro and Giyuu rushed out of their respective rooms almost simultaneously. The moment she heard the words "Upper Rank Three" and "Rengoku Kyojuro," Shiro's face paled. She knew all too well the terrifying power of the Upper Rank Demons. The Flame Pillar, who always had a loud voice, a bright smile, and was always generous with his praise, was now in mortal danger!
"Senior Yiyong!" Bai looked at Yiyong, his eyes filled with urgency and pleading, "We must go help him immediately!"
Giyuu's expression was as solemn as water. He knew full well what Upper Rank Three meant, and he knew even more clearly that the time it would take to reach the Infinity Train from here was probably too late. He looked at Shiro and instantly understood her intention—to use that extremely burdensome blood demon art that could transcend space.
"...It will consume a lot of energy." Yiyong said in a deep voice, with disapproval in his tone.
"But this is the only way to catch up!" Bai's voice trembled with anxiety, "I can't just watch Mr. Purgatory die!" The pillar who was as warm as the sun was one of the first people besides Giyuu to accept her wholeheartedly.
Seeing the unshakable determination in her eyes, Yiyong was silent for a moment, then nodded heavily: "Let's go!"
Bai took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the uneasiness within her. Her silver hair moved without a breeze. She stretched out her hands, rapidly swishing them in front of her. Two silver coordinates, more complex than before, with a slightly unstable glow, suddenly lit up. Space emitted a humming sound as if overwhelmed, and violently distorted.
Blood Demon Art·Infernal Affairs·Moon Migration·Dual Coordinates!
This was her first attempt at teleporting a person simultaneously over a very long distance. The immense energy drain caused her vision to darken, and a fishy, sweet taste welled up in her throat. The next moment, the surrounding scenery blurred, reorganized, and dissipated as if violently torn apart.
As they felt the solid ground beneath their feet, a strong smell of blood and a raging fighting spirit instantly overwhelmed them! They were now in the devastated battlefield next to the Infinite Train!
The scene before them made their pupils shrink suddenly——
Rengoku Kyojuro knelt on one knee, his dazzling yellow-red hair stained with dust and blood. His Nichirin sword lay broken at the side, his signature flaming haori tattered and tattered. His body was covered in severe wounds, the most fatal of which was a horrific, nearly penetrating wound in his chest, from which blood gushed forth. He seemed to have exhausted all his strength, unable to move.
And Upper Moon Three, Akaza, with a fanatical, hunting-like smile, his right fist condensed with destructive power, and those sharp claws were aimed at the heart of Purgatory! In the next second, he would completely tear the Flame Pillar apart!
"Mr. Purgatory!!" Bai exclaimed in surprise.
There was no time to think, it was all driven by instinct! Bai's body once again turned into a moonlight-like shadow—
Blood Demon Art·Infernal Affairs·Moon Migration!
At the critical moment, she appeared out of nowhere in front of Rengoku and used her slender back to block Akaza's fatal blow!
“Puff!”
The dull sound of claws piercing flesh was a tooth-grinding sound. Akaza's right hand stabbed fiercely beneath Shiro's left shoulder blade, nearly piercing her entire body! The intense pain made her vision go black, and blood instantly dyed her silver hair and thin clothes red.
"Bai!!!" Yiyong's roar was filled with unprecedented shock and anger.
Akaza was obviously stunned as well. He pulled back his bloody hand and looked at Bai who suddenly appeared and blocked the attack. His six eyes narrowed at the same time, revealing a mixture of surprise, confusion and violence.
"It's you..." Akaza's voice was low and oppressive. He recognized Bai, "The 'special sample' that Master Muzan has been searching for... You actually betrayed us and protected the demon hunters?"
Bai stumbled a step, enduring the excruciating pain, still firmly holding her arms outstretched, shielding the unconscious Rengoku. She could feel a tingling sensation in her wounds, her powerful self-healing ability struggling to repair the horrific wound, but it was far slower than Akaza's destruction.
"I... have never belonged to you..." She gritted her teeth, blood oozing from the corner of her mouth, "Mr. Purgatory... is my companion!"
"A traitor... has no value in existing." Akaza's murderous intent instantly locked onto Shiro, "Either come back with me to see Master Muzan, or... die!"
However, his words completely ignited the fuse.
Giyuu witnessed with his own eyes how Bai was seriously injured in order to protect Rengoku, and looked at her back as she bled but still stood stubbornly. Then he heard Akaza's threat to Bai, and the suppressed calmness in those deep blue eyes was completely broken, turning into overwhelming rage and cold murderous intent!
“No…” Giyuu’s voice seemed to come from the deepest abyss of cold. The Sun Blade was instantly unsheathed, and the azure water light surged like never before. “…Touch her!!!”
"Water Breathing·Eleventh Form·Nagi!"
The domain instantly expanded, not for defense, but for ultimate offense! Giyu's figure transformed into a deep blue lightning, charging towards Akaza with a ruthless determination! Each strike contained utter fury and precision, like a raging tsunami, instantly engulfing Akaza!
"Water Pillar..." Akaza was forced to fight, but his face showed an even more excited fighting spirit, "Come on!"
The fierce battle between the two powerful men instantly reached a fever pitch. Giyuu completely abandoned defense and only attacked without defending. Every blow was fatal, and he temporarily suppressed Akaza!
Bai knew that Yiyong was buying her time to recover and fight back. She endured the excruciating pain and took a deep breath. The horrific penetrating wound on her left shoulder healed at a visible speed. Although the pain was still intense, it no longer affected her movements. She picked up the broken fragments of the Purgatory Sun Blade on the ground, her eyes sharpening.
She can't hide anymore!
The silvery-white light replaced the azure water light, and the cold moonlight emanated from her body.
"Breath of the Moon·Type 1·Dark Moon·Palace of Night!"
Countless crescent blades whizzed out, accurately attacking the gaps in Akaza's battle, forming a perfect complement and pincer attack with Giyu's violent water breathing!
"This is... Breathing of the Moon?!" Akaza blocked Giyu's attack and looked at Shiro in astonishment, "Lord Kokushibo... you are indeed special!"
But the shock at this moment was fatal to him. Yiyong seized his momentary distraction and
"Water Breathing·Rampant Form·Tide Strike·Chaos!"
The endless stream of slashing blows was like a raging wave, fiercely smashing into Akaza's body, leaving several wounds deep enough to see the bone! At the same time, Bai's Moon Breathing slash also blocked all his escape routes!
"Blood Demon Art·Infernal Affairs·Mirror Realm Slash!"
Bai waved the fragment, not to release sword energy, but to "cut" a tiny spatial crack next to the limb that Akaza was trying to regenerate. The crack instantly extended and cut off his right arm that had just begun to regenerate at the shoulder!
"Damn it!" Akaza roared angrily. The sun was about to rise. Facing Giyuu, who had a tacit understanding and was determined to kill, and Bai, who possessed strange blood demon arts and moon calling, he knew that the situation would be unfavorable if he continued fighting.
"Traitor... I will remember you!" He glared at Bai fiercely, then suddenly dropped his body downwards, using the blood vampire technique to instantly dive into the ground and disappear.
After confirming that Akaza's presence had completely vanished, Giyuu's tense nerves relaxed slightly. He immediately turned around and rushed towards Shiro.
Bai watched him rush toward her and tried to say, "I'm fine," but the immense exertion of continuously using high-level blood demon arts and Moon Breathing, coupled with her body having only just recovered from a serious injury, drained her of all her strength in an instant. Her vision quickly dimmed, and she couldn't even offer Giyuu a comforting smile before her body went limp and she fell forward.
"white!"
Before her consciousness completely fell into darkness, the last thing she felt was Yiyong's always steady arms, holding her tightly in his arms with unquestionable strength and a barely perceptible tremor.
