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

Chapter 366 Two fists can't beat four hands

That body...

Kokushibo's eyes narrowed slightly.

It's unbelievable that there are beings with such terrifying physical strength in this era.

That body is a rare sight, perhaps only seen once every few centuries.

No, it wasn't just talent; that body had been tempered and refined to almost the limit of what a human could possess.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is a physical body that has not been seen in hundreds of years.

Just by looking at that strong physique, Kokushibo could tell that the opponent was incredibly powerful.

Even if it were placed in the top three, it would probably be enough to rank in the top three.

No... Akaza, I'm afraid he's not even as good as him.

Although Kokushibo admired Akaza's efforts, to be honest, they were on completely different levels compared to the physical strength of the man in front of him.

This isn't a matter of effort; it's simply a matter of talent.

“I’ll hold them off, you guys try to get close.” Xuanmi revealed his strangely shaped eyes, a smile spreading across his lips. “In this state, even if I were beheaded, I could recover quickly.”

Uzui Tengen was shocked: "Huh?! He won't die even if his head is cut off?"

Yu Zi kicked him: "Don't make a fuss at a time like this. Just listen carefully and do your own thing."

Uzui Tengen: "Hi hi."

Honestly, she's just like a mother hen.

Long-winded.

He muttered a couple of complaints to himself.

"With Genya in front, things will be much easier for us," Tanjiro said with delight. "As long as we can successfully surround him, the suppression will be achieved."

In battles where the numbers are disparate, the chances of victory are greatly increased by infinitely compressing the opponent's living space.

Even Kokushibo couldn't withstand the encirclement of Pillar-level combatants.

These life-threatening markings didn't appear for nothing.

The group discussed the matter, each contributing their own thoughts.

“You guys go ahead and charge in, I’ll be there to provide treatment,” Yu Zi added. “Just try to avoid fatal wounds.”

Kyojuro laughed heartily: "Oh! With Miss Yuuko around, it's quite reliable!"

As Kokushibo watched Yuuko blend into the crowd as a demon, a scene seemed to flash through his mind.

That was... a scene he had long forgotten, a scene of him with Yoriichi and Ikuko.

A gentle breeze blew by, and Yuuko was pouring tea for him and Yoriichi after they had just finished a training session.

In a moment of distraction, that beautiful scene shattered like a dream.

Kokushibo took a deep breath.

He no longer understands whether he is right or wrong, or whether he is at fault or not.

All he knew was that if he stopped now, all his centuries of hard work... He was willing to abandon his wife and children, and betray his comrades...

Even Kokushibo, who had lost all human emotions, could not accept such a thing.

Even if it's wrong, he can only keep going.

right?

Yoriichi...

The image of that repulsive face flashed through his mind. Kokushibo closed his eyes slightly and took another deep breath.

When he opened his eyes again, all that remained was indifference.

Everyone noticed the changes in Kokushibo.

Without further ado, the crowd dispersed and drew their Nichirin Blades.

The crowd surrounded Kokushibo, waiting for him to make his move.

……

At a certain moment, Shinobu Kocho struck first.

"Insect Breathing, Bee Fang Dance, True Dance".

The markings further enhanced her speed, making her one of the fastest even among the top-ranked speedsters.

It was like a chain reaction; the moment Shinobu Kocho made her move, the others also released their sword forms one after another.

The variety of breathing techniques is dazzling.

Genya charged forward without any special effects. His task was simple: to block Kokushibo's attacks for the others as much as possible.

Shinobu Kocho was the first to reach Kokushibo, her needle-like blade piercing towards his neck.

Even if you can't sever the demon's head, attacking its head is still an efficient method.

Kokushibo parried with his sword, and with a soft clang, Shinobu Kocho's figure flipped in mid-air, retreating gracefully like a butterfly.

Following closely behind, Uzui Tengen laughed and swung his twin swords at him.

"watch out!"

"Sound Breathing - Fourth Form - Resounding Slash Without End!"

Hei Shibo held firm.

Then another slash came down.

"Wind Breathing - Eighth Form - First Fierce Wind Slash!"

That's how you suppress the opponent's actions with a continuous barrage of attacks.

The goal is to prevent him from even using his sword form.

At this moment, even Kokushibo, who had never been defeated in hundreds of years, was finding it difficult to cope.

There is no doubt that.

These are all talented people.

It's hard to imagine that such a powerful era could gather so many strong individuals.

Kokushibo was incredibly surprised.

At first, he thought it was Yu Zi's teaching, but with this many people, it was impossible for her to teach them.

Perhaps it's their own talent.

This group has surpassed the original Pillars.

Could we still see such powerful swordsmen in the Taisho era?

A hint of crimson flames ignited within Kokushibo's heart.

Fighting against a strong opponent can indeed be exciting.

"Drink!" Kokushibo suddenly erupted, releasing his body's defenses and letting the Nichirin Blade strike his body.

Taking advantage of the opportunity created by resisting the damage, Kokushibo swung the Demon Blade with great force.

The enormous demonic blade slashed through, forcing everyone to retreat temporarily.

Only a demon could possess the ability to sacrifice itself for survival.

Hei Shibo took half a step forward.

"Breathing of the Moon..."

"Not good!" Everyone's expression changed slightly.

I still let him use the sword-drawing form.

"Blood Demon Art - Blood Face Earth Bind!" Yu Zi shouted, slamming her hands on the ground.

The crimson chill rapidly spread along the ground, encroaching upon the Black Death Behemoth.

It quickly reached the feet of Kokushibo, causing him to freeze in place.

But it was only for a moment; Kokushibo quickly regained his mobility.

"You've been a huge help!" This moment of constraint gave Genmi an opportunity, and he rushed behind Kokushibo and hugged him tightly.

This method...!

That's pretty good!

Yuko's eyes brightened slightly.

"Well done!" Everyone's faces lit up with joy.

Genmi shouted excitedly, "Everyone! Now!"

With a gloomy face, Kokushibo failed to shake Genya off. He slightly hunched over, then suddenly straightened up, and a number of demon blades identical to the ones in his hand emerged from his body.

"drink!"

Xuanmi's body was pierced by the blades, and even his smile froze on his face.

"Pfft~" He coughed up a mouthful of blood.

It was as if he was nailed to Kokushibo's back.

Shinazugawa Sanemi's pupils suddenly contracted: "Genya!"

Yuko interrupted their heartfelt brotherly conversation: "You can't kill him at this level! Hurry! Now!"

Upon hearing this, everyone disregarded Genmi's condition and rushed towards Kokushibo with all their might.

We need to cut this guy's head off!
