Chapter 56
Iguro Obanai was leaning against the tree, and Kabiramaru seemed to sense his mood and rubbed his head against his.
【“After being thrown back into the cell, Xiao Banei developed a strong desire to survive. He used the hairpin stolen from his tribesmen to start chiseling the wooden fence of the cell. What he saw and heard that day made him completely lose trust in other people. Only a little white snake named "Dybumura" who got lost in the cell became his only trustworthy companion.”】
Tomioka Giyu: "So that's how his white snake came to be?"
Kanroji Mitsuri was impressed: "That white snake... Kabiramaru is Mr. Iguro's companion."
【“After working hard day after day, one day, Banai managed to escape, but was soon chased by the snake demon who heard the news. Just when he was about to be killed by the snake demon, fortunately, the father of the former Flame Pillar, Rengoku Kyojuro, Rengoku Makijuro, arrived in time and killed the snake demon with the Flame Breathing Sword Technique, so Banai saved his life. Afterwards, Makijuro took Banai to find the only survivor in his tribe, his cousin. However, when the cousin saw Banai, she pushed him away and cried and scolded him loudly. Banai learned from her words: It turned out that after he escaped, the snake demon was furious and killed almost all the tribe members, a total of more than 50 people died.”
"'It's all your fault! Everyone was killed because you ran away! Wouldn't it be better if you just got eaten as a sacrifice?!'"
"Tsk." [Buzukawa] smacked his lips. "No matter how many times I read it, I still find it hard to understand."
"That's right." [Iguro Obana] said sarcastically, "Although my cousin's accusations against me were completely unreasonable, they still deeply hurt Obana's heart. I did think about what kind of disaster my people would encounter after I ran away...but I still ran away."
"As a descendant of a scum family, I am also a scum..."]
"How could this be!" Kanroji Mitsuri exclaimed, "What does this have to do with Mr. Iguro! Mr. Iguro has saved so many people! How could he be a scumbag!"
"His cousin..." [Fuzuikawa Mitsuya]'s face darkened, "What a bullshit idea! Instead of blaming the evil ghost, she blames Iguro! What a bullshit operation!"
Rengoku Kyojuro heard a familiar name on the stage. "So that's it!" He suddenly realized, "Hmm! I was wondering why it was so familiar, I think I've heard my father talk about this before!"
"Although the Snake Pillar has a bad temper and the snake he carries is very scary." Colleague A took a deep breath, "But I still remember that when I thought I was going to die, it was the Snake Pillar who suddenly appeared like a god descending from heaven and killed the evil spirit with one sword... How could such a Snake Pillar be a scum!"
"What's that saying?" Colleague B racked his brains to think, "It's a saying in the neighboring country... Get out of the mud..."
Colleague C couldn't bear to watch it any longer. He covered his face and said, "He is a man who has come out of the mud without getting stained."
"Right!" Colleague B suddenly realized, "Snake Pillar-sama is like this, staying clean even in the mud! How can someone who thinks like this be a scumbag! Snake Pillar-sama has such a deep misunderstanding of himself!"
Murata agrees: "A real scumbag wouldn't think like that."
【“Obanai, who believed that he was carrying a heavy sin, no longer desired an ordinary life. Afterwards, he followed Makijuro to join the Demon Slayer Corps and later became the Snake Pillar. In order to vent his hatred that had nowhere to go, he poured all his emotions into demons and killed them wholeheartedly, just to slightly alleviate his guilt.”
"This kind of zombie-like life did not give him a glimmer of hope until the appearance of the Love Pillar, Kanroji Mitsuri. This carefree and beautiful girl aroused the first trace of affection in Xiaoba's heart..."]
"Love Pillar-sama, please quickly open the heart of Snake Pillar-sama!" Colleague B waved his arms, "All these thoughts of being scumbags should go away! Love Pillar-sama is an angel!"
[“Next is the Pillar Meeting. Who will speak?” [Iguro Obana] asked.
"Let's play rock-paper-scissors. Whoever loses gets to decide. This is fairer." [Fuzuigawa Saneya] said.
The result came out, [Tomioka] and [Iguro] both had Scissors, [Busigawa] had Paper - [Busigawa] lost.
"[Buzugawa], you lost." [Iguro Obana] said with a schadenfreude, "You come on."
[Iguro Obane]: Great, one less scene to talk about!
[Fuzuikawa Saneya] Reluctantly: "During the trial of the pillars - the meeting of the pillars, because he heard that Tanjiro Kamado was taking his sister Nezuko Kamado, who was a demon, with him, he thought that Tanjiro was favoring the demon. So, he snatched the box containing Nezuko from the hands of the "Gakure" members, and deliberately stabbed Nezuko repeatedly with a knife in front of Tanjiro. Then, because he was distracted by Toioka Giyuu's interruption, he was hit by Tanjiro's headbutt. After getting up, he wanted to deal with Tanjiro, but he stopped because the lord suddenly showed up."】
Murata wondered, "Why do they seem to be reluctant to come live and talk about our situation?"
([Tomioka Giyu], [Fuzuigawa Miya], [Iguro Obana]: Damn it, if you were asked to do a live broadcast when everyone else is on vacation, would you be willing?)
[“After the lord pardoned the Kamado siblings, he was dissatisfied with the verdict and deliberately cut his arm in front of Nezuko in order to expose her true nature, using his extremely rare blood as a test. But in the end, Nezuko resisted the temptation and rejected his rare blood. In the end, due to the lord's words, Shimizu reluctantly accepted the existence of the Kamado siblings.”
"By the way, there was also a fool who foolishly ran to guarantee someone." [Fuzuikawa Saneya] pointed at [Tomioka Giyu] next to him and said unhappily, "You know, that's a ghost, and you haven't known it for a long time - if the other party really eats people, you will commit seppuku! There will be no place to cry!"
[Tomioka Giyuu]: "...Nezuko is a good ghost."
"This isn't a question of whether or not he's a good ghost, right?" [Iguro Obana] pointed at the white snake around his neck. "Even Kabushige wouldn't give his life to someone he'd only known for two days."
Kabamaru bit Iguro Obanai hard.
Amid Iguro's screams, Tomioka Giyuu was speechless. 】
"Even if we now know that Nezuko is really not an ordinary ghost." Uzui Tengen looked at Tomioka Giyu, "Now that you mention it, I really don't know what you were thinking originally. You were so unglamorous and willing to sacrifice your life for..."
"He's just stupid," [Buzugawa Miyabi] pronounced loudly, "After all, his master had been with that Kamado for several years before he guaranteed him, and you've only been here a few days!"
[“There’s no need to talk about what happened next.” [Iguro Obana] touched the two holes on the back of his neck that had just been bitten by the kabana. “Later, Purgatory experienced the Infinite Train, and we all received the news that Purgatory had passed away.”
"Let's just go to the Infinite City right away?" [Buzukawa] said, "The sooner we finish talking, the sooner we can get off work."
"I agree." [Ihei] urged, "Hurry up, I want to buy a cake for [Ganlu Temple] after the live broadcast."
"Regarding the Infinite Castle, there is actually a section before the Pillars Training Arc, which is about Iguro and Shimizu accidentally entering the Infinite Castle." [Busei] said.
"Shimizu and Obana received information from the Demon Slayer Corps and tracked down a castle that was abandoned after the Restoration - the castle tower. Shimizu expressed his dissatisfaction with the team members for losing the demons and failing to guard them. After the first short battle, he and Obana dismissed the other team members and chased them all the way to the rooftop. They used the Breath of Wind to kill a large number of demons and cooperated with Obana to rescue the woman who was kidnapped by the demons. Then the two of them jumped down with the demons and accidentally entered the Infinite Castle. The door of the tower closed, and Shimizu's Sun Blade suddenly stabbed into the ground, and the scene just now disappeared."】
"That Infinite Castle..." Uzui Tengen thought, "Will it appear in the castle tower?"
"Why bother about that? Just go and take a look." Fuzugawa Miyabi shouted and wanted to go out in a hurry.
"It's unlikely that you can go alone. Mr. Iguro is not here now, so he can't go with you." Shinobu Kocho said, "If the Infinite City is really there, you're dead. You know, Muzan Muzan can know what we look like through the cells of demons."
"Kizuru Muzan has lost two upper rank warriors in succession. He must have noticed something wrong with us from our performance and is eager to know our secrets - if the Infinite City is really there... do you understand what I mean?"
Of course, Fuzugawa Mitsuya understood that the Infinite Castle was there = Muzan Mukuro was also there = Muzan Mukuro turned him into a ghost = found the screen. He smacked his lips in annoyance, turned around and came back. "So what do you say we should do?"
"If we follow the original timeline," Tokito Muichiro suddenly said, "then behind the Flower Street should be the Forge Village, right?"
"Hmm! Muzan Muzan must have discovered something wrong with the Nichirin Sword!" Rengoku Kyojuro said angrily, "He has also discovered the effect of the red sword. In order to severely damage the Demon Slayer Corps, he will definitely send the upper ranks to the Swordsmith Village to massacre the swordsmith who can forge the Nichirin Sword - Hmm! The Swordsmith Village is in danger!"
[“I won’t talk about the training of the pillars, let’s jump directly to the part about the Infinite Castle.” [Fuzugawa Saneya] said, “After hearing that the lord had set a bomb to self-destruct, Saneya rushed to the Ubuyashiki residence and surrounded Muzan Muzan with the other six pillars, but was swallowed by Naruto and taken to the Infinite Castle. Afterwards, Saneya cried with regret for not being able to protect the lord, and vowed to kill all the demons.”]
