A person in Japan, a sword that soars to immortality.

"Go to hell!"

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Su Yi suddenly attacked the two from behind.

"Breath of Flames: Fourth Form - Vortex of Blazing Flames!"

Rings of fire appeared one after another, instantly enveloping the woman in white.

Bang!

Su Yi's limbs were all severed, and she was sent flying like a cannonball by Matsujuro's attack, sliding more than ten meters on the ground before finally coming to a stop.

"Plain clothes!"

In the alley, He Yi saw her younger brother lying on the ground, vomiting blood like a human stick, and ran towards him like a madwoman.

When Matsujuro saw that there was a demon with human-to-demon relations, he frowned, but ignored it and looked at Taiichi with a worried expression.

"Can you hold on?"

Taiyi, whose face was completely torn apart with a huge wound running from his left eye to his lip and whose body was soaked in blood, nodded slightly.

Damn!

Matsujuro gripped the sword tightly, his whole body trembling uncontrollably with rage.

If it weren't for my carelessness, the samurai of the Yamada family would never have ended up like this.

As the Flame Pillar, he not only failed to play a crucial role at the critical moment, but also caused serious injury to the person who was trying to help him. This is simply unforgivable!

"Relax, relax, don't cry. If your head falls off, you can just put it back on yourself. You're such an idiot." His unique, bubbly voice rang out as Gyutaro squatted down, gently stroking Daki's head. Then he turned and coldly stared at Taichi and Matsujuro.

"How could you do this to my sister's lovely face? It's unforgivable! You should be cut into pieces!"

Upon hearing this, Matsujuro immediately drew his sword to attack again, but was stopped by Taiichi once more.

Gyutaro raised an eyebrow, noticing that Taichi was almost dead but was still able to move and even stop the Demon Slayer Corps samurai, which piqued his curiosity.

Taiichi did this because he didn't want Matsujuro's sacrifice to be in vain.

Although Gyutaro has only recently become a demon and his strength has not yet reached the peak of Tanjiro's time, similarly, the Flame Hashira Matsujuro's strength is not as great as that of the Sound Hashira Uzui Tengen at that time.

With Tanjiro's main group of three, plus the Sound Hashira's three ninja wives, and Nezuko, even with this lineup, their victory was a Pyrrhic one.

Now, it's just him and the Flame Pillar here.

Therefore, winning is simply impossible.

At the same time, I also have some things that I need to confirm with Gyutaro.

"Before we take action, could you answer a few of my questions?"

Taiyi lowered his head, enduring the intense, almost dizzying pain, and asked softly.

"Huh? You're almost dead, and you still want to ask? Really."

Gyutaro tilted his head and said impatiently, holding two sickles.

"Even if you kill both of us today, with such a huge commotion, aren't you afraid the shogunate will find out about the existence of demons? Aren't you afraid of being besieged and exterminated nationwide?"

Taiyi asked the question he had been pondering for a long time.

In the original work, both the battle in the red-light district and the final battle in the Infinity Castle took place in the city.

The battle in Yoshiwara's entertainment district, in particular, caused extensive damage and resulted in the deaths and injuries of many passersby.

If the only reason given for leaving the cleanup to the Hidden organization after the battle is over, Taiichi thinks that's a bit far-fetched.

With so many onlookers and such a large area of ​​damage, why did nothing happen after it happened?

puff~

Gyutaro laughed, then he turned to look at Daki, who was also laughing; both of them were mocking her.

"Since you're about to die, I'll be merciful and tell you," Gyutaro said slowly, his eyes lowered, his face a mixture of mockery and pity.

"That lord once said that as long as we demons do not cause large-scale massacres or attack daimyo and nobles, we will not be noticed."

"Because any information about demons, even if it reaches the ears of the shogun, the emperor, or the senior councilors and young nobles of the shogunate, will be... automatically ignored by them!"

Taiyi suddenly raised his head, his pupils contracted sharply, and he immediately understood his previous doubts.

So that's how it is. It really is you, Muzan. Memory manipulation or subconscious hypnosis, is it?

In order to find the blue spider lily, he not only took the lead and traveled all over the country, but also had to clean up the mess.

In an era of limited information, even if a sensational event occurred in a certain place, the public would not know about it unless it received official attention and was announced nationwide.

Otherwise, if the higher authorities choose to ignore it, even the biggest issues will be difficult to circulate in a communal living environment with low population mobility and "acquaintance" social relationships.

"Lord Matsujuro, I have two favors to ask you."

Taiyi could no longer support his body and sat down cross-legged on the ground.

"You said."

Matsujuro held his Nichirin Blade horizontally in front of Taiichi, staring intently at Gyutaro.

He had realized that the person opposite him, Gyutaro, was someone he could not handle, and he was prepared to die here.

"Please tell me the incantation for the Breath of Fire."

"what?"

Not only Matsujuro, but also Gyutaro and Daki on the other side exchanged glances after hearing what Taiichi said, and then revealed expressions of barely suppressed laughter.

"Please believe me, I will definitely let you live tonight."

"it is good!"

Although Matsujuro didn't understand, given the current situation, how could there be any time to improve himself?

But Taiichi was, after all, someone who had helped him, and he showed no fear in the face of evil spirits.

Perhaps the opponent is some kind of martial arts prodigy. As long as they tell us their breathing techniques, our side might actually have a chance to win!

He took a step back, then knelt on one knee, leaned close to Taiyi's ear, and whispered the incantation of the Flame Breathing technique to Taiyi.

With Matsujuro's instruction, Taiichi, though still keeping his head down, began to change his aura.

At the same time, a scorching wind swept through the streets and alleys, making a whooshing, screeching sound, but if you listened carefully, it sounded like a dragon's roar...

"What's going on? We can't let this continue! Daki, go and kill the Yamada family samurai, and I'll take care of the Flame Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps!"

Just moments ago, Gyutaro was watching the show with amusement, but his expression changed instantly. After speaking in a serious tone, he launched an attack on the Flame Pillar.

"Blood Demon Art: Flying Blood Scythe!"

"Breath of Flame, Second Form - Ascending Blaze"

......

"Damn human, I've been fed up with you for ages! Die! Blood Demon Art: Quadruple Slash!"

Daki bypassed the fighting Matsujuro and Gyutaro and launched an attack on Taichi in mid-air.

In a flash, Taiichi, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his head down, suddenly twirled his sword with one hand, then reversed his grip and thrust the sword in front of him, blocking Daki's attack.

whispering sound!

"Give it to me..." Daki's face was ferocious. After retracting the ribbon, she prepared to attack again, but at this moment, she heard a faint murmur from Tai's mouth.

"Since the Warring States period, the world has collapsed, the people have suffered, yin energy has flourished, and evil spirits have emerged." Taiyi used his sword to support his body, slowly raised his head, and his pupils shone with a fiery red light as he continued:

"Blood belongs to Yin, and Yin belongs to Kun. Therefore, blood demon magic is born alongside evil spirits and wreaks havoc on the human world. However, when Kun Yin is reversed to Qian Yang, there is a Yang dragon to suppress the world."

Bang! Oh no!

A nameless fear rose in Gyutaro's heart, his eyes widened, and he kicked Matsujuro away, rushing towards Daki while shouting:

"Daki, get out of the way!"

His shouts seemed to be blocked, and Daki remained standing there dumbfounded, unable to move.

Taiichi's brows furrowed into a deep frown, his eyes filled with intense killing intent as he glared at Daki and the charging Gyuu Taro, gritting his teeth as he said:

“Yanglong means heart.”

"The heart is the master of the five yang, and should descend with the blazing fire of heaven. Qi rises from the Li Palace, and the dragon emerges from... fire! Enveloped!!"

Ding!

[Acquired Breathing Technique: Yang Dragon's Roar - Advanced]

The scorching temperature seemed to ignite the air, and billowing flames rose from Taiyi's body, with thick pillars of fire shooting straight into the sky.

"Dragons fight in the wild, their blood is black and yellow!"

"Please take my next strike!"

"Yanglong Flow - Yanglong's Roar: Xuanhuang Blood!"
