Chapter 42

Busui Gawa Shima was almost out of breath. He was already surprised when Genya ate the blood demon art product of Upper Rank 4 last time, but he didn’t expect that this time he would “double it” and actually eat Upper Rank 1’s hair. Is this a joke? ! That’s Upper Rank 1!!!

Tomioka Giyu: ...Ah, Fuzugawa's brother is still alive even though his body is broken. How amazing.

Fortunately, he didn't say this out loud, otherwise not only would the undercover mission be exposed, but this place would also have to be renovated. Ah, maybe the Demon Slayer Corps would have to pay a large sum of money? After all, it is possible that (scratching) will definitely destroy everything here...

【“On the other hand, Mr. Gyoumei of Kiyomizu decided to join forces with Fuzugawa Mushiya to attack Kokushibo.” After comforting his brother, [Tokito Muichiro] continued, “But it was difficult for the two of them to launch an effective attack on Kokushibo. When Fuzugawa Mushiya was about to be hit by the attack, I saved him and avoided Kokushibo’s attack.”

"I originally planned to get close to Kokushibo and create an opportunity for Kuei-mi and Fushigawa to attack. Kuei-mi and Fushigawa also noticed my intention and cooperated with me. Under the cover of the two, I successfully approached Kokushibo. Although Muichiro's left leg was cut off by the slash, he also stabbed Kokushibo and successfully opened the transparent world."

"The transparent world is what we often call a transparent world."】

The power of Upper Rank One is indeed strong! Fushigawa Mitsuya thought, even if I, Mr. Beimingshima Gyoumei, and Tokito Muichiro attacked together, we would not be able to do anything.

——So what did Xuanmi eat?

When he thought of this, Fuzukawa Shimokawa was suddenly furious, but after his anger subsided, he was filled with deep fatigue and fear.

Xuan Mi...can I really protect him?

"A transparent world? Hmm! Very interesting!" Rengoku Kyojuro laughed, "I wish we could open it now!"

“As expected, it still looks difficult... Lord Flame Pillar.” The Demon Slayer Corps member following behind him grumbled, “After all, it was only activated when fighting against Upper Rank One…”

"But they are the Pillars!" Someone next to him poked him, "They are the Pillars! They are different from ordinary members like us! They should all be able to open the Spotted Patterns and Transparency! I heard that they even opened the Red Blade some time ago!"

On the other side, Murata and his friends——

"We should also be able to open the stripes, right?" Colleague B asked expectantly.

"No..." Murata complained, "Probably not?"

"Don't give up hope, Murata!" Colleague D shouted with his fists clenched, as if he had taken a shot of chicken blood. "Persistence is victory! Persist to open the Patterned Transparent Red Blade!"

Colleague C's temples twitched fiercely: "I really envy you for always having so much energy."

[“Buzuigawa Genya’s bullet hit Kokushibo, and the blood demon technique he used suppressed Kokushibo’s movements, while Mr. Gyoumei of Melancholy Island and Buzuigawa Saneya attacked Kokushibo at the same time.”

"Blades suddenly grew out of Kokushibo's body, and the slashing attacks from these blades hit me and Genmi, and I was... cut in half."

“Pah, pah, pah!” [Tokito Yuichiro] grabbed [Tokito Muichiro], “What do you mean you were cut in half? That’s not auspicious at all! Change the title back to me!”

[Tokito Muichiro] calmly changed the title: "Before he died, Muichiro wanted to do something before he died. At this time, he held the hilt tightly and opened the red sword, turning the blade red, restricting Kokushibo's movements. On the other hand, the dying Fuzugawa Genya used blood demon art to prevent Kokushibo from using his moves. Gyumei of Sadness Island and Fuzugawa Saneya worked together to behead Kokushibo. Although Kokushibo's head regenerated afterwards, the part that was previously pierced by Muichiro's red sword also began to disintegrate. Kokushibo, who was unable to use his moves, was completely destroyed by Gyumei and Fuzugawa while his body was constantly disintegrating, and finally turned into fragments and disappeared."

"As expected, it still feels weird to hear someone with the same name as me." [Tokito Muichiro] said. 】

Blood, blood vampire magic?

Fuzukawa Miyabi was stunned for a moment, and his brain stopped thinking.

Huh? Who? Xuan Mi? Xuan Mi also has blood ghost magic? So is he a human or a ghost?

"That's amazing." Tomioka Giyuu said, "There's actually someone in the Fuzugawa family who can use the blood demon technique. Could it be that Fuzugawa can do it too?"

"How is that possible!" Fuzugawa Saneya retorted, "Have you ever seen anyone use blood demon arts?"

Tomioka Giyu: "But Fuzugawa's brother can do it."

Fuzugawa Mitsuya: “…”

Ah this...

He was sure that although his brother ate demons, he was 100% human. As for why he could use blood demon arts, he had no idea.

Could this be the special function of the Ghost Eater—that should be the name—?

"It was Muichiro who first activated the red sword..." Ubuyashiki Yoya sighed, "What a good kid... He is still too young..."

At this moment, Tokito Ichiro was already in tears - damn it, a man shouldn't cry, he is the older brother, he should be a good role model for his younger brother... so why would he...

I will... cry...

Damn it, damn it, damn it, why did I die so early? I really, really... I didn't protect Muichiro well, and I even said bad things to him. I'm a bad brother.

If it is indeed retribution, then it has nothing to do with Muichiro... Muichiro is a good boy...

Why, why not run away? He is still so young and has such a bright future ahead of him!

Tokito's parents were also exceptionally silent. On the one hand, they were saddened by Muichiro's death, but on the other hand, they were proud of Muichiro.

[Tokito Ichiro]: "The dead Muichiro arrived in another world and met his dead brother. Ichiro didn't want Muichiro to come here - of course! After all, what brother would want his brother to die so tragically - he hoped that Muichiro could escape, rather than die in vain."

"Muichiro tells how there are countless happy moments in a tragic life. For Muichiro, although he died at a young age, he did not regret the choice he made in pursuit of happiness. Ichiro hugged Muichiro and apologized to him. He confessed that he just wanted Muichiro to live. In the end, the two brothers went hand in hand to reunite with their parents, and Muichiro's story ended here."

"That's the end of Muichiro's story!" [Tokito Ichiro] said, "Our story has just begun!"

We will all have a bright future. 】

Although Tokito Muichiro and his brother went together to reunite with their parents, and although Fuzugawa Shimoya felt sorry for Tokito Muichiro, he didn't care about this at this time - he just wanted to know how Genya was doing!

If eating a ghost can give one blood ghost magic, then Xuanmi should also have the ghost's ability to recover quickly, right?

So is Xuanmi... okay?

Busui Gawa Miyabi thought anxiously.

Iguro Obanai finally arrived at the foot of Momoyama, and at this time, Kuwajima Jigoro was waiting for him at the door.

"Mr. Kuwashima." Iguro Obanai nodded slightly. He didn't say any more polite words and went straight to the point, "You should have seen the screen, right? May I ask if Gyou is still on the mountain?"

Kuwajima Jigoro nodded: "I have already tested him, but he has not passed the final assessment yet, so he cannot see the screen. He is still on Taoshan Mountain. Please take him back. The final decision will be made by the lord."

Iguro Obanai glanced at Kuwajima Jigoro and said, "I will make my own judgment. You should know that my disciple turned into a ghost..."

"He needs to commit seppuku." The short old man took over the conversation.

Iguro Obanei nodded: "It's good to know. But I can't take him back, otherwise if he turns into a ghost in the future, he will know the approximate location."

"My lord, let me monitor him now and judge whether he has the intention to become a ghost. If he has the intention to become a ghost..."

"Don't bother telling me, I'll do it myself," said Jigoro Kuwajima.

Oniwu Tsuji Muzan was walking on the road of Yoshihara Yuguo.

Come to think of it, he's been feeling that the Demon Slayer Corps is a little weird lately. Is it an illusion?

Speaking of which, a while ago, a demon he liked very much, the Lower Element Five, was inexplicably removed. Obviously, the child hadn't had time to do anything, but he inexplicably met the Pillar...

Coincidence?

No. Muzan Kibutsuji denied this answer.

But if it wasn't a coincidence, how did Zhu find him?

Muzan Muzan frowned and thought as he walked. He was very angry about this matter and killed all the lower rank except the lower rank one. He didn't know if the lower rank one could kill a pillar after getting some of his blood.

He walked towards Kyōgoku-ya, and at the door of Kyōgoku-ya, he accidentally passed by a white-haired man.

Thin blood? Muzan Kibutsuji Mumu raised an eyebrow, then turned his head and looked back, but the white-haired man had disappeared.

Forget it. Muzan Muzan thought, I should go find Daki first, and then slowly look for the rare blood.

Seeing Muzan Muzan enter the room, Shinobu Kocho let go of Muzuki Muzan who was about to rush out. "That's Muzan Muzan!" the Insect Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps warned, "You can't kill him with the Sun Blade. You have to wait until the sun comes out! We only have four pillars here, not to mention that we don't even know where Mr. Uzui is now. We haven't even developed a drug to make him age. If you go out now, there will be no benefit except being exposed to the eyes of the Upper Six. You may even die in vain!"

"Tsk." Fuzugawa Shima stopped talking, "I know, I just don't like him."

"By the way, he shouldn't be able to discover the identity of the Toioka Hashira, right?"

"He probably won't be able to find out." Shinobu Kocho smiled, "He probably went to look for Takumi. Besides, Mr. Tomioka stayed in his room and didn't come out. He didn't show up in front of him, so he probably wouldn't be able to find out."
