I don't want to be a heroic spirit

"Why do we need a reason to fight? Invading each other, devouring each other, killing each other, this is the way of ghosts, right? Your stupidity even shocked me... If I must have a reason, it's that I'm not happy with you!"

A large knife wrapped in flames, as if made of bones, was stuck upside down on the ground. The petite figure in the flames reached out and grasped it, and with a casual wave of his hand, he cut through the sea of ​​fire that was rising into the sky.

He was casually wearing a yellow kimono, his long golden hair radiating heat like a blazing flame, his exposed skin was covered with red demonic patterns, two sharp horns on his forehead pointed high into the sky, his red hands and feet, and the sharp claws that no human would possess, proved his inhuman identity.

The moment he saw the demon girl, Ibaraki Douji was secretly surprised.

In this hell, there is such a powerful evil spirit that has not been subdued by Abe Haruaki?

"The disappearance of Black Blade Mountain... is it related to you?"

"What Black Blade Mountain? I don't know. You brought so many ghosts here without permission, and you're talking so much nonsense. Are you really a ghost?"

"court death!"

Ibaraki Douji was not a patient monster to begin with. After being provoked by the demon girl, he immediately drew out his sword in anger and slashed at her.

"clang!"

The slash was as fast as lightning, but it was easily blocked by the bone knife held by the ghost girl in front of her body.

"That's right, that's how it should be!"

Feeling the continuous force coming from the bone knife, the ghost girl grinned, and her flaming golden hair became even hotter. "Since you are a ghost, then fight with me! There is nothing I hate more than boredom and loneliness!"

The next moment, the demon girl crushed the ground, and cracks as fine as spider webs spread out in all directions with the demon girl as the center. At the same time, a terrifying force surged along the bone knife towards Ibaraki Douji's long sword.

Suddenly, Ibaraki Douji's expression changed drastically.

"Oh!"

His feet rubbed against the ground until he slid more than ten meters before Ibaraki Douji absorbed the force of the attack.

"What kind of strange power is this?"

"Haha! What are you looking at?"

Without giving Ibaraki Douji time to be stunned, the demon girl rushed over with a knife in her hand like a galloping chariot, and every step she took could make a dent in the hard ground.

When Ibaraki Douji came to his senses, the demon girl kicked the ground and jumped high, performing a sword move that fell from the sky.

"Take my move—meteor destruction! Hahaha!"

The innocent laughter was like that of a child playing, but what it brought was absolute destruction that was no less than a natural disaster.

Scarlet meteors fell from the sky, the power of the flames continued to rise, and finally crashed to the ground.

The hard earth was unable to resist this unreasonable violence and collapsed under the heavy weight. The overflowing aftermath turned into an impact that lifted up the ground piece by piece. Countless pieces of gravel were rolled up, then shattered by the shock wave, and finally melted by the heat wave.

The roaring heat wave was cut off by a knife, and Ibaraki Douji, with some burn marks on his clothes, rushed out in a panic.

At this moment, the flames in front of him began to deform as if being guided. The next moment, a sharp knife covered with tongues of fire stabbed at him, and the ghost girl crossed the sea of ​​fire with a crazy smile.

"You, you're just hiding? Come and fight me!"

"You little brat...don't be so proud!"

Being beaten again and again and forced to flee in a panic, Ibaraki Douji became aroused and the vicious demonic energy wrapped around his blade.

Facing the oncoming flames, Ibaraki Douji lowered his shoulders and the long sword in his hand flashed four sword lights in an instant.

The sword light cut through the flames and chopped the side of the bone knife, causing it to deflect slightly and shatter the ground at Ibaraki Douji's feet.

At the same time, one of the sword lights shot out like lightning and pierced the ghost girl's shoulder.

Then, when Ibaraki Douji was about to retract the knife, he was stunned.

"Can't pull it out?!"

"You did a great job! You actually managed to hurt me!"

With a grin, the demon girl was actually excited by being stabbed. Her tense muscles tightly gripped Ibaraki Douji's blade, making it difficult for him to pull it out.

"Then... take my punch!"

Ibaraki Douji decisively let go of the weapon in his hand and barely avoided the ghost girl's punch. However, the whistling fist wind still hit his chest, making him fly out at an extremely fast speed.

When Ibaraki Douji climbed up while holding his chest, he saw the demon girl walking towards him while pulling out the long sword that was stuck in her body, and crushing it with a little force.

"Hurry up and get up! Haven't you fought enough? I understand, I understand everything, because the demon blood in my body has just begun to boil! Let's tear off each other's arms and livers!"

This guy is a lunatic!

Ibaraki Douji raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes fixed on the demon girl who was emitting terrifying power and walking towards him step by step.

"Ah! I almost forgot."

At this moment, the ghost girl suddenly seemed to remember something and showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

"According to that human... etiquette? It seems like we need to announce our names before a battle... Although I think it's troublesome, as a demon, there's no need for us to follow it, but Shuten always asks me to do it... It's so annoying."

The ghost girl smacked her lips, then carried the bone knife on her shoulder, took a deep breath, and then shouted loudly.

"My name is Ibaraki Douji! I am the leader of the demons of Mount Oe! The demon of the blazing Rashomon!"

Ibaraki Douji: "???"

Is this an illusion? Why did I seem to hear my own name just now?

Ibaraki Douji, fell into chaos.

"Hey!"

Seeing that Ibaraki Douji was still not speaking, Ibaraki, who was getting a little impatient, roared from a distance.

"I've already told you my name. What's wrong with you? Do you look down on me?"

After a long period of silence with mixed emotions, Ibaraki Douji slowly spoke.

"My name is... Ibaraki Douji."

"???"

Ibaraki blinked blankly, then looked the other person up and down, and after a long while he asked thoughtfully.

"Why is Ibaraki Douji a man?"

Ibaraki Douji, who was already furious because of Ibaraki's punch just now, almost couldn't help spitting out blood after hearing these words.

I haven't even asked you why you're a woman, and you have the nerve to ask me why I'm a man?!

"Ibaraki Douji is a man no matter how you think about it, right?!"

Ibaraki Douji roared angrily, and then heard Ibaraki say.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Of course I am a woman, otherwise how could I seduce that bastard Tsuna? It's impossible that he likes men, right?"

According to the legend, Watanabe Tsunayoshi, one of the four heavenly kings under Minamoto no Raikou, met Ibaraki-douji when he was passing by Suzaku Bridge. At that time, Ibaraki-douji transformed himself into a lost woman and asked Watanabe Tsunayoshi to take her home. In the end, Watanabe Tsunayoshi cut off one of his arms with a sword, and that sword was the famous sword "Oni-kiri" in later generations.

"..."

Ibaraki Douji suddenly felt that what Ibaraki said made a lot of sense.

Although the legendary Ibaraki Douji transformed into a female, but... he didn't understand the method of transformation at all.

551

Chapter 551 Ibaraki and Shuten.

After arguing with Ibaraki, Ibaraki Douji became more and more confused.

There is indeed a saying that Ibaraki-douji is actually a female and the wife of Shuten-douji.

Could it be that I am really a fake?

"Snapped!"

Ibaraki Douji slapped his cheek hard and finally came to his senses.

Damn, he is the real Ibaraki Douji! Those legends are fake, they were made up based on him. Whether it was him disguising himself as a woman to seduce Watanabe Tsuna or having his arm chopped off by him, it was all fake!

It is obvious that the ghost girl in front of me is a fake!

After thinking it through, Ibaraki Douji was furious and wanted to tear the fake person in front of him who used his name into pieces!

"Go ahead! Crush this guy!"

"Roar!"

Although Ibaraki Douji believed that the other party was a despicable fake, he admitted that the other party was powerful. Although he had no skills and could only rely on brute force to cause destruction, it was this pure violence that could bring ultimate destructive power.

Following Ibaraki Douji's order, the surrounding evil spirits from hell responded with crazy roars, and waves of ferocious demonic energy came like dark clouds, changing the weather.

There are so many of them that they are fearless, and the demonic aura of some of the hellish demons among them is only slightly inferior to that of Ibaraki Douji.

If it were placed in the human world, it would definitely be a powerful force that should not be underestimated.

However, looking at the demon army rushing towards him in the dust, Ibaraki was a little careless.

"A mere bunch of little ghosts actually dared to bare their fangs at me, the ghost of Mount Oe..."

With the corners of his mouth slightly raised, Ibaraki revealed a hideous and ferocious smile.

"How dare you! You bastards!"

Ibaraki plunged the sharp bone knife heavily into the ground, and then he faced the countless evil spirits and took a deep breath.

"Roar--!!"

The roar mixed with the mighty pressure shook the atmosphere. The translucent impact and sound waves raised rolling dust, which lifted up the earth and shattered it. Countless pieces of gravel were swept into the distance.

It is certainly not possible to defeat these evil spirits who do not know how to retreat with just a roar. However, when the pressure from the superior who has the same bloodline came over them, the weak evil spirits' brains turned white and they lost consciousness. Even some powerful evil spirits fell to their knees with their bodies softened.

Among them, Ibaraki Douji is also included.

His knees cracked the ground, Ibaraki Douji's face turned pale, sweat poured down, and the blood in his body seemed to be burning.

That is... the blood of a demon that is even more powerful than his!

Just a roar is enough to make all the ghosts surrender and have no thought of resisting.

That is... the real King of Demons!

"What? They're all kneeling down?"

Seeing that all the enemies had lost the desire to fight, Ibaraki was not happy at all. Instead, he frowned in dissatisfaction.

"Is there not even a single ghost who dares to resist? A bunch of spineless, heartless guys, a bunch of trash who can't even withstand my pressure. They have no qualifications to fight me! Boring... boring, unpleasant... unpleasant!"

Like a child throwing a tantrum, Ibaraki waved his hand and slashed out a fire dragon, burning some of the evil spirits in hell into ashes.

"Ahhh... There's no fun in torturing those who have lost their fighting spirit. The flesh and blood of the weak is rotten and inedible. I just want a fight to vent my anger... Is there no one willing to fight me?"

At this moment, Ibaraki's heart moved, and he turned around as if he sensed something, and then he saw Ibaraki Douji struggling to get up.

Suddenly, a surprised smile appeared.

"Can you still stand up? Can you still fight?"

The flames were heating up, and the red soil under Ibaraki's feet gradually turned into flowing magma under the high temperature.

Seeing Ibaraki Douji raise the long sword, Ibaraki also showed a fierce and excited smile.

"Stand up straight! Ghosts are supposed to be arrogant and fearless, ignorant of their own limitations. I've taken an interest in you, so... let me use this trick on you!"

Ibaraki raised her right hand, and the surrounding flames and amazing demonic energy flowed into her right hand.

"Broken by a treacherous scheme, the right arm that was lost and then recovered has transformed into a monster! Rush! Bushihara Fire! Rashomon..."

The high temperature and power that were enough to turn a city into scorched earth gathered in his hands. Seeing that this move was about to be released, Ibaraki Douji was even prepared to die for it.

But... a black shadow fell from the sky, stirring up a large cloud of dust and interrupting Ibaraki's skill release.

Because the black shadow just fell on Ibaraki's head.

"Cough cough!"

Ibaraki Douji, who was choked twice by the smoke, raised his head and looked towards the center of the smoke.

However, the scene that appeared after the smoke and dust cleared shocked Ibaraki Douji.

"Hey~, Ibaraki... I told you something, didn't I? I don't like being woken up in the middle of my sleep. Are you ignoring my words by making such a fuss? You're really getting bolder~"

She was a girl with short purple hair that reached her shoulders and wearing a very revealing purple kimono. Like Ibaraki, she had horns on her forehead. In her right hand, she held a super large wine cup and her whole body exuded a very strong smell of alcohol. Ordinary people would become drunk just by smelling it from ten meters away.

The purple-haired girl was not wearing shoes. Instead, she stepped on Ibaraki's head with her bare feet and kept scratching Ibaraki's cheeks with her round, white, pearl-like toes.
