Demon Slayer: The Journey That Began When I Became Yoriichi's Sister

Chapter 354 It's so slow!

Just like his expression at that moment, the dark lightning bolts darted around wildly, splashing across the floor like water droplets.

The nature of Thunder Breathing has not changed; what has changed is its intensity.

This eerie, dark lightning seemed to surpass even the breathing techniques used by humans.

however……

Beimingyu Xingming simply gripped the chains without making any move, remaining unshaken even as lightning pounded against him.

What a joke!

No effect at all!

Kaigaku gritted his teeth.

Is this guy a monster?

Why was his breathing technique completely ineffective?

Before he could even react, a cold voice rang in his ears.

"It's so slow, it's garbage."

Zenitsu dodged the attack with a swift movement, and at the same time, his blade flashed out, leaving a deep wound on Kaigaku's neck.

"I got slashed! So fast!" A look of astonishment appeared on Kaigaku's face.

When did this guy become so strong?

……

No, compared to that monster... compared to the terror that made every cell in its body scream and cry, this little guy is nothing to brag about. Even if he gets stronger, he's still far from being as strong as the Upper Moon.

The despair he felt when facing Kokushibo involuntarily surfaced in Kaigaku's mind—the despair of not being able to think of a way to defeat him no matter what.

It's like asking an ant to defeat an elephant; you can't even see the elephant's outline.

That kind of... difference in the level of life.

It's really... no big deal.

In comparison, that guy was definitely more troublesome.

Kaigaku took a deep breath and fixed his gaze on Himejima Gyomei.

He found out not long after joining the Demon Slayer Corps.

The mournful island travels to the underworld.

The blind monk he had once betrayed also joined the Demon Slayer Corps and even became a Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, quickly being recognized by everyone as the strongest.

In order to remain in the Demon Slayer Corps' sanctuary, Kaigaku had to find ways to avoid them, whether on missions or in his daily activities.

but……

That's all in the past.

He is different now than before.

The strongest?

Compared to that monster, they were ultimately just mortals.

However, he instinctively sensed a hint of fear from Himejima Gyomei.

Let's get rid of this crybaby first.

As Kaiyue thought this, his eyes sharpened.

"Thunder Breath·Two Type·Rice Soul!"

Another menacing bolt of dark lightning flashed by, its crackling sound like it was entering a swarm of bees, causing ringing in the ears.

A five-hit combo in an instant?

Zenitsu's pupils contracted slightly; his speed was truly astounding.

Sensing the impending danger, Zenitsu's lightning bolt pattern on the side of his face quickly appeared.

"What? Appeared suddenly?" Kaigaku looked surprised.

Zenitsu couldn't help but sneer, "You don't even know about the Demon Slayer Mark? Looks like you're just a nobody."

"Talking to you is infuriating." Kaigaku's face was contorted with rage. "You and that old man are both deserving of death!"

"I think you've eaten too many people and can't distinguish between good and evil anymore, right?" Zenitsu couldn't understand why his grandfather had never been unkind to Kaigaku.

Instead, she showered him with affection.

This is what Zenitsu finds most intolerable.

"Thunder Breathing - Third Form: Mosquito Gathering into Thunder!!"

Zizzi~

The ear-piercing sound was like the buzzing of mosquitoes, and from Kaigaku as the center, a series of pitch-black slashes were unleashed in all directions.

"Yes, we can tell the difference."

"Those who correctly evaluate me and agree with me are 'good'!"

"The evaluation is very low; anyone who disagrees with me is 'evil'!"

Kaigaku's movements were very agile, and his breathing technique's sword form far surpassed that of the human era. Zenitsu still had traces of wounds on his body.

"Breath of Thunder, Fifth Form: Heat Realm Thunder!!!"

A terrifying, massive bolt of lightning struck Zenitsu from a distance, slamming him against the ceiling.

"How about it?! My sword, enhanced with Blood Demon Art, is pretty sharp, isn't it?!" Seeing Zenitsu rendered immobile, Kaigaku laughed arrogantly, "A slash that cuts and burns through skin and flesh!!"

This guy... he's gone mad.

Two tear tracks slid down Beimingyu Xingming's face.

It seems that, just as Ms. Yuko said, it's not that children can't distinguish between good and evil, or that children are bad; rather, it's that bad people are inherently bad.

At this moment, Kyōmei Himejima finally felt relieved.

"Amitabha."

A calm chanting suddenly rang in Kaigaku's ears.

Kaigaku felt a chill run down his spine; that guy had finally made his move!

Seeing that Zenitsu was about to be killed, he finally couldn't hold back and had to intervene!

"Breathing of Thunder - Land Form - Lightning Strike..."

Just as Kaigaku was about to unleash lightning in all directions to force him back, he heard Zenitsu calmly say from the ceiling:

"Mr. Beiming Island, please leave this to me." His figure fell from the ceiling and floated down to the ground.

Zenitsu coldly raised his head: "No matter what, I want to deal with this bastard myself."

Kaigaku's pupils contracted slightly. What a joke!

Was his attack ineffective?

Why was he able to stand up again?

Zenitsu stepped forward indifferently: "Well, don't worry, I'll make this guy go to hell to repent for everything he's done."

Beiming Island stood still, seemingly pondering Zenitsu's opinion. After a moment, he nodded slightly.

"I understand, I'll leave this to you."

He had no reason to stop.

Whether they are evil people or evil spirits, they should all go to hell.

Kaiyue laughed angrily: "You really dare to say that, when you didn't even have a chance to fight back under my attack."

As he spoke, Beimingyu Xingming suddenly turned and left.

Kaigaku was somewhat stunned.

He really just left like that?

Do you really think that good-for-nothing Zenitsu could beat him?

If it were two people, he would be somewhat wary, but Zenitsu, that piece of trash…

Do these two guys really not take him seriously?

The grinding of Kaige's teeth produced a harsh, squeaking sound.

Zenitsu watched Himejima Gyomei leave, then turned his gaze back to Kaigaku: "Show me what else you've got up your sleeve."

"Let me see just how much you've grown since you abandoned your human identity."

"I told you... don't be so arrogant!" Kaigaku suddenly looked up, the veins on his face clearly visible.

"You're a piece of trash!"

His figure flashed onto Zenitsu, and the Demon Blade was raised high.

"What right do you have to be arrogant in front of me!"

The demon's blade slammed down.

With a clang...

Kaigaku's eyes trembled slightly.

"What? You're so surprised that I blocked your attack?" Zenitsu blocked the demon's blade with one hand, looking up at him expressionlessly. "Didn't I tell you that already?"

"So slow... your slash."

In Kaigaku's eyes, Zenitsu's figure suddenly disappeared, vanishing from his sight just like that.

Kaigaku's eyes were wide open, as if he had no idea what was going on.
