Perhaps Kokushibo's talent and aptitude are far inferior to his younger brother Yoriichi Tsugikuni, but everything depends on the comparison. For example, in the Demon Slayer world, only one Yoriichi Tsugikuni has appeared in a thousand years, while Kokushibo is actually considered to have outstanding talent, otherwise he would not have created his own branch of breathing techniques, the Moon Breathing Technique.
Especially during the hundreds of years since he became a demon, Kokushibo has continuously accumulated and perfected his Moon Breathing Technique and swordsmanship. In addition, he occasionally clashed with the Pillar-level swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps. It can be said that he has honed his swordsmanship and breathing techniques to an extreme level. For example, when facing the demon god Li Mo now, he directly suppressed the demon god Li Mo, who had integrated the combat experience of multiple Li Mos.
However, the demon god Li Mo was no ordinary person either. Although he was initially suppressed by the evil demon Kokushibo in terms of sword skills, he quickly went from parrying to being evenly matched, and even showed signs of launching a counterattack in less than five minutes.
Moon Breathing*Sixth Form*Long Night Lonely Moon!
Seeing its opponent's almost superhuman improvement, a strange light flashed in the eyes of the demon Kokushibo. Knowing that something was wrong, it took a risk without hesitation. Its original multi-angle attack was transformed into a concentrated, high-speed series of slashes.
Clang clang clang clang —————— Sizzle!
Two swords, each a blur of motion, clashed violently. The moon-like sword light and the deep black blade light clashed, and even the aftershocks severed trees within a hundred meters. However, the pitch-black Tang sword quickly cleaved down, directly severing the demon blade.
If it weren't for Kokushibo's fast reaction speed, his instantaneous leap and deflection, Rimo the Demon God wouldn't have directly severed the Demon Blade. Instead, the Tang sword, with its nicks but rapid healing, would likely have struck Kokushibo directly. This weapon, a prototype from Rimo the Demon God's earlier era, would have caused Kokushibo to experience the wounds inflicted on his soul, potentially deciding the outcome of the battle.
Despite the broken blade, the demon Kokushibo, who had retreated a distance, did not change his expression in the slightest. He did not even change his state of maintaining the [Breathing of the Moon] and [Striped] techniques. With a flick of his arm, the broken demon blade regenerated, and branches like tree branches grew from the blade, creating segments. However, the regenerated demon blade still looked ferocious, and the eye-like patterns on it remained unchanged, making people feel uneasy at the sight of it.
It should be said that Kokushibo's demon blade, forged from his own flesh and blood, has the potential to become an evil weapon or a demonic weapon in some extraordinary worlds. However, the demon blade in the Demon Slayer world is merely a weapon created by him using Blood Demon Art. Even if it can be reborn and strengthened using Blood Demon Art, there is still an upper limit to how much it can be strengthened. Even Kokushibo himself knew this.
When the demon Kokushibo stopped reshaping his weapon, the demon god Li Mo did not hesitate at all. Since the opponent had been merciless in his previous sneak attacks, he naturally had no intention of being a nice guy and chose to take this opportunity to kill the opponent!
"Die, you demon!"
Without hesitation, the demon god Li Mo swung his sword down. The demon Kokushibo, who had just raised the Demon Blade after being strengthened by the illness, had his six eyes wide open and was gripping the sword with both hands. However, he was still suppressed by the powerful force of this slash, and his legs dragged a trail more than ten meters long on the ground.
The evil demon Kokushibo successfully blocked the attack. The enhanced demon blade was not immediately severed, but instead bounced up and executed a reverse cut!
If this move is reversed, the demon Kokushibo will pay the price first. When it parries with both hands and bounces the demon blade up, it has already exposed its weakness to the enemy. Any Pillar-level powerhouse could easily take advantage of this gap to successfully attack.
The problem is that Kokushibo also understands this reason. It is even more aware that the unknown enemy, the demon god Li Mo, appeared too quickly and grew too fast. For example, the demon king Kibushi Muzan in its mind is clamoring for Kokushibo to quickly kill this "unknown powerhouse of the Demon Slayer Corps" who may be the one that makes it feel uneasy. Kokushibo cannot resist the demands of the demon king Kibushi Muzan in this regard.
After all, the reason why the despicable boss Muzan Kibutsuji can sit firmly on the throne of the Demon King without being punished for his various despicable acts is because he can still control the life and death of the large group of evil demons under his command through the [Progenitor Demon Blood] he bestowed.
Otherwise, given the utterly capricious nature of Kibushi Muzan's actions, many demons were not only passively transformed into demons in their previous lives, but also went berserk and devoured their own relatives and friends during their transformation. When they regained their sanity, they naturally transferred their resentment to Kibushi Muzan. Not to mention that when Kibushi Muzan commanded his demons, he completely disregarded their lives.
Even though the demon Kokushibo didn't actually have much loyalty to the Demon King Muzan, its life and death were still in the Demon King's hands. Moreover, facing this enemy whose potential seemed endless, Kokushibo had long been filled with a determination to win. It seemed to see the figure of its younger brother Yoriichi Tsugikuni, and it was willing to pay a huge price to win by sacrificing its life. In any case, it was confident in the regenerative power of its demon body, and it was just a matter of taking a few cuts temporarily.
However, what the evil demon Heishibo did not expect was that its attempt to exchange injury for life was a joke to the ghost god Li Mo. When the Tang sword struck it, the intense pain that tore at its soul was unbearable. The move that was originally intended to kill the ghost god Li Mo with a counter-slash was completely distorted and no longer threatening. In this brief moment, less than a breath, the outcome of the battle was already decided.
In the next instant, the demon god Li Mo, holding a Tang sword, pierced straight into the head of the evil demon Kokushibo. The evil demon Kokushibo, who was already seriously injured, had his life completely cut off by this fatal blow and could only wait for the final arrival of death!
"The winner has been decided!"
Seeing the demon Kokushibo, whose head had been pierced by a single blade and whose demonic body was beginning to dissipate, the demon god Li Mo coldly announced to his opponent, "The final victor's declaration."
"Yoriichi, in the end, I didn't win against anyone..."
Hearing Li Mo's words, the evil spirit Heishi Mu, whose body had already begun to dissipate, did not refute them. His face was filled with pain and a miserable laugh. However, when he recalled his past memories, he looked down at a flute that had fallen out of his clothes and sighed.
That was when the demon Kokushibo, taking advantage of his younger brother Yoriichi Tsugikuni's old age and frailty, launched a challenge, but was almost killed by his brother with a single blow. In the end, watching his brother die suddenly from a heart attack, he discovered that his brother Yoriichi Tsugikuni still kept the bamboo flute that he had given him when they were children. For some reason, he vented his pent-up anger and cut the corpse in two, but left behind this gift that he had once given to his brother. Now, it fell to the ground and reminded him of the past.
Before the demon Kokushibo could finish his last words, this Upper Moon One demon was completely reduced to ashes. His soul was captured by the demon god Li Mo and placed into the [Shadow World], becoming one of his shadow soldiers!
Chapter 34 The fearful Ghost Dance Tsuji Mukai
The death of Kokushibo, the first Upper Moon demon, signifies that the demon-slaying operation by the demon god Li Mo and others is nearing its end. Even if Li Mo wanted to find other Upper Moon demons now, it would not be an easy task, and he might even find it difficult to find any trace of demons in the surrounding area!
To put it simply, Upper Rank demons aren't like cabbages, constantly replenished. The six Upper Rank demons of the Twelve Demon Moons, including the weakest Upper Rank Six, Daki and Gyutaro, haven't been touched for over a hundred years. Moreover, this time they directly lost the first three Upper Rank demons, who were also the three strongest Upper Rank demons, plus the Upper Rank Six who was previously killed in Yoshiwara's entertainment district. It can be said that the fighting power of the Twelve Demon Moons has been reduced by more than half.
You're saying there are still six Lower Moon demons?
Sorry, but the difference between the Upper Rank and Lower Rank demons in the Twelve Demon Moons is probably greater than the difference between an ordinary person and a demon. For example, if the demon Kokushibo were to fight the remaining twelve demon moons one-on-one, he would most likely win. If the six Lower Rank demons were to gang up on the weakest Upper Rank demon, they would likely be defeated and all of them would be killed.
After all, the selection criteria for the Pillar-level powerhouses of the Demon Slayer Corps are either to successfully defeat fifty demons or to kill a Lower Rank demon. It can be said that the Lower Rank demons are updated very frequently, and they may be successfully defeated every few years or even two or three years. Even the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji vaguely felt that the Lower Rank demons seemed to be becoming stepping stones for the Demon Slayer Corps to train Pillar-level powerhouses. As the scumbag boss, he naturally had the idea of directly laying off staff.
This is probably why, in the original Demon Slayer anime storyline, after Rui, the fifth Lower Rank demon, and his family, the Natagumo Mountain family, were attacked by the Demon Slayer Corps, Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji announced the disbandment of the Lower Rank demons, leaving only Enmu, the first Lower Rank demon, and directly eliminating the other remaining Lower Rank demons.
The main reason is that in the eyes of the Demon King Muzan, apart from the number one demon Enmu, who has the potential to reach the level of an Upper Rank demon in terms of talent and strength, the other six Lower Rank demons are just weaklings. They are just small bosses used by the Demon Slayer Corps as elite templates to hone Pillar-level strength. They did not cause much damage to the Demon Slayer Corps, but instead honed even stronger Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen.
Therefore, when Muzan Kibutsuji, the boss of the Lower Rank Demons, suffered yet another loss of members, and the Demon Slayer Corps successfully defeated Rui, the fifth Lower Rank Demon, and a group of subordinate demons, he became angry and did not hesitate to carry out physical layoffs against the Lower Rank Demons.
Anyway, apart from Enmu, the Lower Rank One demon, who, with his powerful Blood Demon Art and considerable strength, earned the respect of the ruthless boss Muzan Kibutsuji and was spared physical dismissal, the other unfortunate Lower Rank demons were caught in the crossfire and became background characters in the original Demon Slayer anime.
This time, the arrival of the transmigrator, Li Mo, has already shattered the original plot of "Demon Slayer." Not only did Kanae and the others survive and even leave the Demon Slayer Corps, but more importantly, the demons suffered an absolute blow. According to Li Mo's statistics, the total number of demons eliminated is in the hundreds. Considering that there are less than 500 demons in total, this means that nearly one-fifth of the demons have been eliminated, not even counting the number of demons killed by the Demon Slayer Corps.
In particular, with two-thirds of the Upper Moon demons being wiped out at once, it can be said that the fighting power of the Twelve Demon Moons has been largely depleted. The high-end fighting power of the demons has suffered heavy losses. Whether it is the Demon Slayer Corps or the demons, knowing this fact will likely have an absolute impact on the situation for both sides. If the Demon Slayer Corps knew, they would definitely not let the demons go, and the demons would definitely feel fear upon knowing this fact.
For example, at the moment when Kokushibo, the Upper Moon One demon, finally died, even the Demon King Kibushi Muzan, who was focused on this extremely important battle, was trembling all over even when he hid underground, feeling an immense sense of fear rising in his heart!
………………
The moment Kokushibo, one of the highest-ranking demons, died, Muzan Kibutsuji, the Demon King, who had been in a dormant state in a remote mountain forest in Japan, where he had randomly buried himself hundreds of meters underground, woke up once again with a look of panic on his face.
Undoubtedly, the discovery of the death of Upper Moon Two, Doma, in a short period of time woke up the scoundrel Muzan Kibutsuji, who was originally preparing to sleep for decades or even centuries. This prompted him to order Kokushibo and Akaza, the demons who happened to be closest to him, to go and check on the situation. However, Muzan Kibutsuji never expected that his Upper Moon One and Upper Moon Three would die almost simultaneously. After experiencing this series of bad news, he could no longer sleep.
Just kidding. The only demons that Muzan Kibutsuji could use were Infinity Castle and Nakime, whom he thought might be attacked by unknown blood demon arts and thus used as bait. The only other demons were the six upper-level demons of the Twelve Kizuki. The six lower-level demons and the other demons were basically cannon fodder. Even he himself didn't think they were of much use, so naturally he wouldn't think they could surpass the abilities of the upper-level demons.
The continuous deaths of the four Upper Moon demons and the reduction in the number of demons made the scoundrel Muzan Kibutsuji unable to sit still any longer. He has now completely broken free from his previous dormant state and is facing the current situation with great panic!
"Who exactly is that? That mysterious swordsman from the Demon Slayer Corps? But he's also skilled in fist techniques..."
At this moment, the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji was nothing like he was in Tokyo, when he was pretending to be a wealthy man and enjoying riches. Instead, he was like a patient suffering from late-stage anxiety disorder, pacing around in circles inside the cave.
Previously, when the Upper Moon Six, Daki and Gyutaro, died, the Demon King Kibushi Muzan sensed something was amiss. However, he did not realize that it was the intentional doing of the demon god Li Mo. He only felt that a new strong person had indeed appeared on the Demon Slayer Corps side. In addition, he was worried about the "demon" who could use "special blood demon arts". So he stayed in the cave to hibernate instead of continuing to go out and cause trouble.
After all, Muzan Kibutsuji wasn't just known as the "Scumbag Boss." During the Warring States period, when he was arrogant and disdainful of everyone, he was nearly killed by Yoriichi Tsugikuni, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Afterward, he developed a PTSD syndrome called "Yoriichi Tsugikuni." Not only did he hide for decades, waiting until Yoriichi Tsugikuni grew old and was eventually found and killed by his younger brother Kokushibo, before finally having the courage to emerge from the ground and spend considerable time and effort eradicating any trace of him.
When the scum boss peeked out, he immediately mass-produced demons and mobilized the Twelve Demon Moons, wiping out all swordsmen who knew the Sun Breathing Technique and related lineages!
Faced with the rampage of demons, the Demon Slayer Corps naturally fought desperately, but they were no match for the demons, whose high-level combat power had an absolute advantage. The swordsmen who had inherited the [Sun Breathing Technique] were killed by the demons, and even the Demon Slayer Corps suffered heavy losses.
To be fair, while the Demon Slayer Corps did possess the five major breathing techniques in addition to the Sun Breathing Technique, and had many elite swordsmen trained during the Warring States period, the speed at which the Demon Slayer Corps trained these elite swordsmen was significantly slower than the speed at which the demons themselves could generate demons. Moreover, the existence of the Twelve Demon Moons completely overwhelmed the Demon Slayer Corps in terms of high-end combat power, inflicting heavy losses on them.
In any case, just looking at the current Demon Slayer Corps, apart from the five basic breathing techniques and some branch breathing techniques derived from the basic breathing techniques, even the [Sun Breathing Technique] has been directly lost and is only a legend. In addition, no swordsman has mastered techniques such as the [Mark], [Transparent World], and [Crimson Blade]. You can tell how heavy the losses of the Demon Slayer Corps were back then. It can be said that after that battle, Demon King Muzan almost completely destroyed the inheritance of the [Sun Breathing Technique] before he was satisfied.
Of course, the Demon King Kibushi Muzan believed that he had completely destroyed the inheritance of the "Sun Breathing Technique" and eradicated the most dangerous thing left behind by Yoriichi Tsugikuni. However, he was still afraid of Yoriichi Tsugikuni, which led to the discovery of Yoriichi Tsugikuni's inheritance in the original story, and his almost insane madness.
The problem is that the current Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji, doesn't have the same headaches as in the original Demon Slayer storyline. The situation he faces now is far more severe than in the original Demon Slayer storyline. This is because the appearance of the demon god Li Mo has already completely disrupted the original Demon Slayer storyline. More than half of the Upper Moon demons have died, and many more demons have been defeated and eliminated, leaving Muzan terrified.
Even though he was called the "Demon King" by the Demon Slayer Corps and the demon god Li Mo, in reality, Muzan Kibutsuji was just a cowardly and narrow-minded boss. If he hadn't relied on the control of his demon subordinates by the [Progenitor Demon Blood] and his own cowardly survival ability, he might have been devoured by his demon subordinates or killed by someone else long ago.
Muzan Kibutsuji was well aware of this. He never considered the demons he created as his confidants. Even the Twelve Demon Moons were merely useful tools. For example, when he discovered that the Lower Rank Demons could become whetstones for the Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen to hone their skills and become stronger, he did not hesitate to initiate physical layoffs. He kept only Enmu, the demon ranked first among the Lower Rank Demons, and eliminated the other four Lower Rank Demons without hesitation.
The idea that the Twelve Demon Moons and other demons could be loyal to such a despicable boss is a ridiculous joke. If it weren't for the control of the primordial demon blood over their lives, the unrestrained demons would likely turn on the boss. Muzan Kibutsuji believed that a demon with a special blood demon technique could attack him out of thin air and sustain serious injuries, which is why he hurriedly fled to hibernate and even secretly investigated.
Now, the scoundrel Muzan Kibutsuji realizes that he may have encountered something even more troublesome. Leaving aside the female swordsman who killed the demon Doma, isn't this guy who killed the demons Kokushibo and Akaza a bit too strong?
"What should I do?"
After circling around like a headless fly for hundreds of minutes, the Demon King Kibushi Muzan finally calmed down a bit. He had a plan for his previous situation, and with no other people or demons around, this cowardly and timid boss revealed his true colors: "For now, I'll continue to hide. I even outlived that guy Yoriichi Tsugikuni. I don't believe that any human strongman can live longer than Yoriichi Tsugikuni..."
Well, the boss was very self-aware. He knew that most of his Upper Rank demons were dead, and that with only the two remaining Upper Rank demons and the Lower Rank demons, trying to kill this powerful figure would be like sending food to his death. So he wisely chose to let time wear him down.
In any case, what Muzan Kibutsuji was most proud of was not becoming the progenitor of demons, but his ability to obtain a near-infinite life. With this advantage of living a long life, he outlived those enemies who might threaten him when he was a weak child who had just become a demon. And when he became strong and mastered the ability to create subordinate demons with demon blood, he used this to outlive and kill many enemies, including Yoriichi Tsugikuni.
Otherwise, with his true abilities, the Demon King Kibushi Muzan would have been easily defeated by Yoriichi Tsugikuni with just one blow. However, he managed to escape by relying on his survival skills, then hid underground and became a coward. He waited until the demon Kokushibo challenged the extremely old Yoriichi Tsugikuni, and only after confirming Yoriichi Tsugikuni's death several years later did he openly reappear. It can be said that he completely learned the essence of the Tokugawa Shogunate founder Tokugawa Ieyasu's philosophy.
Now, Demon King Muzan has discovered that another being with combat power no less than Yoriichi Tsugikuni may have appeared. Panicked, he continues to follow the successful experience from last time, planning to stay in the cave for decades and wait until the other party is old and weak before considering having his demon subordinates attack. Judging from the current situation, he has given up on those demons without hesitation, since as long as he is there, there will be no shortage of demons.
In fact, if the original inhabitants of the Demon Slayer world were to use the turtle-style strategy of the scum boss Kibushi Muzan, it would probably have a very high success rate. However, the demon god Li Mo is certain that his lifespan is long enough to directly capture the hiding scum boss!
……
"Mo, are you alright? And what was that over there just now?!"
When the scum boss decided once again to remain dormant even if all his evil spirits died, the ghost god Li Mo leisurely returned to the site of the headquarters of the Eternal Bliss Sect. Then he saw Butterfly Kanae and three other beautiful girls running over. She looked at her man with some concern and examined him up and down. When she found that he was not injured, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked him in a low voice.
Just now, Kocho Kanae and the others were asked by the demon god Li Mo to stay where they were and not participate in the battle against the demons Kokushibo and Akaza. However, they were not unaware of the massive commotion of the battle and were naturally very worried about it!
"Don't worry, Upper Moon One and Upper Moon Three have already been killed by me!"
Seeing the concerned looks from Kanae Butterfly and the other three beautiful girls, Ghost God Li Mo casually put his arm around Kanae Butterfly's waist, kissed the beauty he was holding, and greeted the other three beautiful girls. His words were completely unserious, almost as if he had just crushed two weaklings.
"But we can't help at all..."
Hearing what the demon god Li Mo said, Shinobu Kocho looked at the place where the battle had just taken place and the area where she and the others were now with some resentment. However, neither the demon god Li Mo nor Kocho Kanae allowed the three of them to participate in that level of battle.
"Haha, Shinobu is already very good. The three of you working together were able to kill Upper Moon Six. Even among the Demon Slayer Corps, that's top-tier. You just need to keep working hard!"
Seeing Shinobu's adorable, slightly resentful expression, Oni-shin Li Mo couldn't help but chuckle. He then reached out and ruffled Shinobu's hair, comforting her and the other two beautiful girls. His expression turned serious as he addressed Kanae and the three girls, saying, "In this operation, we've killed three Upper Moon demons and many ordinary demons. Let's go back and rest for now before starting the next cleanup operation..."
When the ghost god Li Mo said these words, he had no intention of eradicating evil completely. He was completely indifferent to whether the remaining evil spirits were still committing atrocities and eating people. His priority was the situation of Kocho Kanae and the others.
Don't be fooled by how well Kanae and Shinobu are doing now. After nearly a month of playing and slaying demons, it's impossible for them to be without mental stress. Even Kanae, who only occasionally takes action, had a life-or-death battle with the Upper Moon Two demon, Doma. The most important thing for her is to quickly adjust her mindset, rest while absorbing combat experience.
The so-called theory of breaking through through battle is absolutely not suitable for Kocho Kanae and the others. According to the opinions of the Ghost God Li Mo and the other Li Mo, the most correct path is to crush the enemy with strength in a fair and square manner. Breaking through the limit through battle may seem like a very exciting move that fits the protagonist, but if you are not careful, you will die without even leaving a bone fragment. And the Ghost God Li Mo does not think that Kocho Kanae and the others have the kind of luck that the protagonist has, so there is no need for them to fight to the death.
Anyway, the evil spirits in Japan have been rampant for more than just a day or two. Ghost God Li Mo is very confident that the Japanese can hold out for several more years without any problems, so there is no need to work so hard to kill the ghosts. Moreover, even if it were Ghost God Li Mo himself, he might not have such a saintly mentality. If it were China, he would probably consider more. There is no need to worry about Japan. Taking care of the people around him is the most important thing.
Upon hearing the words of the ghost god Li Mo, neither Kanae Kocho nor Shinobu Kocho and the other beautiful girls objected but nodded in agreement. The group then left to rest, leaving the elite soldiers behind to clean up the mess!
Chapter 35 The Demon Slayer Corps Aware
When the group led by the ghost god Li Mo left the headquarters ruins of the Eternal Bliss Sect, elite soldiers were left behind to clean up the site. In addition to cleaning up the headquarters ruins, they also had to arrange for people to cover up the huge commotion that had just taken place.
After all, the scene of Upper Moon One, Kokushibo, and Upper Moon Three, Akaza fighting against the demon Li Mo was too grand. If it weren't for the fact that it was in a mountainous area with no inhabitants nearby, and it were in a city like Fuyuki with a large population, it would probably have required an immediate news report about a gas accident. The reason why the cleanup was so easy was that the fact that no one was injured or killed made it very easy to cover up the situation.
Without going into too much detail, the combined forces of the Japanese powers under the control of the ghost god Li Mo are not afraid of even a large number of casualties. You should know that in the Japan before he transmigrated, even the company responsible for the Fukushima nuclear accident bowed and apologized and then picked a few unlucky people to step down as an explanation. You can tell that Japan, which is still half feudal and half modern, would not have difficulty covering up an accident with a large number of casualties. Unless it is really too big to be covered up, there is no need to prepare a scapegoat.
Moreover, although the battle around the headquarters of the Eternal Bliss Cult was quite large, the impact range was at most a few dozen kilometers, and there were no casualties. The powerful figures in Japan naturally fabricated an excuse of "a landslide caused by a small earthquake" and simply fooled everyone without anyone suspecting it.
In any case, earthquakes, typhoons, and even volcanic eruptions are not uncommon on Japan's major islands. Earthquakes happen almost every day, though they are usually of low magnitude and have little impact. The Japanese have gotten used to it.
In this way, it is perfectly normal to use an earthquake as an excuse to cover up the incident, and no one even suspects it. Even the townspeople in the remote town surrounding the headquarters of the Eternal Bliss Cult are attracted by the news that the cult has been destroyed and all its key members have been executed. The earthquake in the mountains is completely ignored by these townspeople.
Unfortunately, for the townspeople who knew more or less about the Eternal Bliss Cult, or even whose own relatives and friends were believers, the actions of the authorities were what they cared about most. The fact that a small earthquake occurred in the Ququshan Forest and did not cause any casualties was naturally ignored by them.
In this situation, the ghost god Li Mo naturally didn't care too much. He didn't even pay attention to the statistics of the wealth obtained by the headquarters of the Eternal Bliss Cult. He had his subordinates who had fused with the [Seed of Fusion] collect it and use it as necessary funds. He didn't even pay attention to how many skulls and corpses were found at the headquarters of the Eternal Bliss Cult. Just counting the number of people killed by Upper Moon Two demon Doma, the number was probably over three digits.
Fortunately, the demon Li Mo's operation has already eliminated two-thirds of the Upper Moon demons, killing dozens of ordinary demons and demons with Blood Demon Arts. In addition, the scoundrel Muzan Kibutsuji chose to lie low and buy time, so the actual number of demons in Japan has decreased significantly. Incidents of humans being killed or even eaten by demons have become much less frequent, and many of the old rumors have lost their protagonists.
However, ordinary people didn't notice much. The Demon Slayer Corps, which specializes in collecting information on demons and exterminating them, quickly discovered that some demons were being targeted by people by collecting information on suspected demon rampages or mysterious human disappearances!
………………
Ten days later, at the Demon Slayer Corps' secret headquarters
Compared to the situation nearly two months ago, the Demon Slayer Corps now has another Pillar-level powerhouse named the "Mist Pillar," namely Muichiro Tokito. He is currently attending the highest-level meeting of the Demon Slayer Corps once again, along with the "Stone Pillar," "Sound Pillar," and "Flame Pillar," among other Pillar-level powerhouses.
As a recently promoted Pillar-level ninja of the Demon Slayer Corps, Muichiro Tokito appears to be very young, at most thirteen or fourteen years old. His appearance even surpasses that of many beautiful girls his age. Coupled with his long hair and cold, expressionless face, it's no wonder that Japan has produced such a unique product in this regard, Hideyoshi. The other Pillar-level ninjas, however, had no particular interest in this matter. They gathered in the courtyard of the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters and once again saw the current head of the Corps, Kagaya Ubuyashiki.
