Naruto's Journey to Training

Zhen Gu exhaled a breath, glanced at the devastated battlefield, and finally fixed his sight on the woman who had fainted from fright.

He went up to check and found that the woman had just fainted due to excessive fright, and a look of relief flashed in his eyes.

However, just as Zhen Gu was about to carry the woman away, she suddenly stopped and looked towards the entrance of the alley.

Under the moonlight, there was a young man with short red hair, black lines on his bloodless skin, and a pair of eyes that glowed golden in the night. He was looking at her excitedly, and the words "Upper String Three" were printed on his left and right pupils.

Zhengu stood up silently, looked at the man who suddenly appeared, and put his hand on the hilt of his sword again.

"Who are you!"

The man did not answer Zhengu immediately, but clapped his hands gently. The clapping sound seemed so abrupt in the silent night.

"I was just passing by by chance, but I didn't expect to see such a wonderful battle. You are the first human I have seen who can kill demons by consuming them. I can't help but feel itchy!"

Akaza suppressed his excited tone and approached Maou step by step.

As the third of the Twelve Moon Demons under Muzan, his greatest pleasure is to find strong people to fight.

However, there are so few people among humans who can rival him that he always feels lonely at the top.

However, the woman he met today gave him a strong urge to fight, which was the excitement of finding prey.

"That rubbish must have been very unsatisfying for you! How about I try it now!"

After saying this, a strong and aggressive aura burst out from Akaza, and his golden eyes looked straight at the woman not far away.

He didn't know who this woman was, with such powerful swordsmanship, but she was not a member of the Demon Slayer Corps.

This was far beyond his understanding. After all, in this world, all the human swordsmanship masters gathered in the Demon Slayer Corps. Compared with them, other ordinary humans are far superior.

But none of that matters. All he needs is a strong opponent. As for the identity of this opponent, he doesn't care at all.

Feeling the opponent's strong fighting spirit, Zhengu slowly pulled out the Sakura Fubuki from his waist.

Accompanied by a burst of fierce momentum, it instantly overwhelmed Akaza's strong fighting spirit, causing Akaza's eyes to freeze.

The woman in front of me is really too strong!

In this world, there is no uniform division of power between humans and demons.

The human side is divided into several stages, taking the Demon Slayer Corps as an example.

The first stage is a human swordsman who has simply mastered the basic breathing method. This type of swordsman is only one or two times stronger than ordinary people. Generally, a team is required to destroy an ordinary ghost.

The second stage is the swordsman who has mastered the breathing method and is in a fully concentrated state. This type of swordsman can burst out a powerful force far exceeding that of the previous stage in a short period of time.

However, this type of swordsman is only slightly stronger than ordinary evil spirits, and can use short bursts to destroy ordinary demons alone.

The third stage is the swordsman who can solidify full concentration, which is the so-called full concentration always hit. As the name suggests, he can be in a state of burst all the time.

This kind of swordsman will have a leap in both physical fitness and strength. It is no longer possible for ordinary ghosts to compete with them. Except for the lower moon among the twelve ghost moons, other ghosts are just sending food to them.

And this is far from the limit of human beings. Generally speaking, the Ghost Swordsman who enters the full collection will be in this state of explosiveness for a long time, and his body and strength will continue to grow until it reaches a limit.

Those who reach this limit are the so-called pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps. As for the time required, it generally depends on personal talent, and most people need two to three years.

As the top-level combat force of the Demon Slayer Corps, at this level, they can generally easily kill the lower moons among the Twelve Demon Moons, but there is still an invisible gap between them and the upper moons.

This gap means that when the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps encounter an Upper-rank demon, they usually have to work together in groups of three to have a chance of fighting.

Among the Twelve Demon Moons, there are six lower moons and six upper moons. This means that if the Demon Slayer Corps wants to kill all the evil demons, they must have twelve pillars to barely maintain the invincibility of mankind.

But the upper limit of humanity does not end here. Above it are the spotted swordsmen and the so-called transparent world.

However, reaching the fourth and fifth stages requires more than just hard work and qualifications; it also requires certain opportunities.

The strength of an average spotted swordsman is probably on par with the three upper-rank evil spirits, but he is still no match for the first three ranks.

Just like Akaza now, his true strength is enough to confront three human spotted swordsmen head-on. Ordinary pillars can hardly be his match, and quite a few pillars have been killed by him.

The one who can truly fight against the upper three-string evil spirits has to be at the fifth stage, the transparent world. It is a state close to the Tao. A swordsman who reaches this state is like the return of life in the pirate world. He can almost perfectly control his body and exert the full limit power of the human body.

And he has the ability to see through all life structures and can find all the weaknesses of evil spirits.

In the original work, even if Tanjiro opened the transparent world and cooperated with the water pillar Tomioka Giyu who had reached the stripe, he could not kill Akaza. In the end, it was Akaza who awakened his will and committed suicide, which finally ended the battle.

From this we can see how terrifying the evil ghost on the sanxian is.

But at this moment, the cold girl opposite made Akaza feel a little pressured, which forced Akaza to treat her with caution.

"boom!"

There was a sudden roar.

The figures of the two disappeared almost at the same time, and then Makoto's sword collided with Akaza's fist covered in blood.

The figures of the two began to move constantly in the narrow alley. The fierce collision and conflict caused ripples in the surrounding air, and the ground under their feet cracked inch by inch.

The sword's gleaming cold light was mixed with the will to cut off everything. After colliding with Akaza's fist, the blade went straight in like cutting tofu, cutting Akaza's arm directly in half.

“Hahahaha! This! What kind of power is this!?”

Akaza looked at his arm that was cut in half, and there was no pain on his face. Instead, he looked mad at having finally found his opponent.

"No breathing techniques, no fancy swordsmanship, just simple slashing, and you can achieve this! Woman, you simply fascinate me."

There was a gleam in Akaza's eyes. Among the powerful human warriors who had fought against him over the centuries, he had witnessed the charm of many pillars, but the woman in front of him was the first one who could make him feel so amazing. This was simply a new miracle.

Every time he swung his sword, it was filled with an unstoppable momentum. There was no hesitation or delay, as if no matter what was in front of him, the sword in his hand could cut it off with one blow.

That kind of will that is devoted to the sword, that kind of swordsmanship that is pure to the extreme, does not need anything else to set it off.

"I don't know any breathing techniques, because my master said that the only thing I can trust is the sword in my hand!"

Zhengu had a cold expression on his face, and every time he swung his sword he slashed at Akaza with the most perfect posture, and every time he swung the sword he would leave a stain of blood.

Akaza's body was far superior to that of an ordinary demon, and he was almost defenseless against her sword.

However, it must be said that the recovery ability of the upper-rank demons is far beyond the reach of ordinary demons. Almost at the moment when Shinkomo put away his sword, Akaza, who was injured by him, had begun to recover and then returned to the battle.
