Demon Slayer: Tanjuro Kamado returns from Sekiro

Chapter 119 - We meet again, Gohachiro

……

soon.

Butterfly House.

"... Karma! Karma!"

Panting, the crow flapped its wings and wobbled to the sky above the butterfly house, talking to itself unconsciously:

"Help..."

The heavy wings flapped one last time.

This is almost the fastest time it has flown in its short life.

After seeing the open window on the second floor in a daze, it went straight in:
boom!
"Ka!"

Suddenly, it stuck behind Tanjuro who was sitting on the bunk!

Tanjuro just opened his eyes from his memory, and was about to stand up and take a deep breath when he was caught off guard by a sneak attack.

After staggering forward, he turned his head.

The crow collapsed behind him, his breath was weak, and his voice was intermittent:

"Shitou... Natian Spider Mountain...winding..."

heard.

Tanjuro was stunned, he raised his head, looked through the window, and looked in the direction outside the butterfly house.

Swish!
The whole person turned into an afterimage and disappeared in place.

At this time.

creak-

The door of the room was pushed open, and Mao poked his head inward, rubbing his eyes:

"Dad, it's time to eat—"

After seeing that there was no one in the room.

"...Eh, aren't you here?"

Mao stood at the door, scratching his head in doubt.

bang, bang...

The open windows were blown by the breeze and knocked against each other.

……

……

at the same time.

Natian Spider Mountain.

"What are these!?"

Inosuke had no time to react, was bound by the spider silk, and was hung under a tree again. He twisted and struggled angrily and shouted:

"hateful!!"

After struggling for a while, he calmed down as if resigned to his fate, and looked under the tree, the twisted and human-shaped [Elder Sister].

After looking at the elder sister's eyes full of tears.

"?"

Inosuke.exe has stopped running.

……

the other side.

Swish!Swish!
Tired kept waving his hands, frowning slightly, pulling the white spider silk around.

boom! !

The spider silk bombarded the ground, kicking up waves of dust, and the surrounding trees were cut down and fell down.

He looked at Shi Tou and the other three who were doing well, and his eyes became more and more impatient.

It has been a few days since I was promoted to Shangxian.

Yesterday, he was promoted to a higher level of numbers, and his strength should be even stronger.

Why—these guys are so difficult to deal with.

Swish!
The sharp spider silk rushed towards Shi Tou's family in an instant!
呲——!
Bright sparks bloomed between the friction between the blade and the spider silk, and there was an ear-piercing scratching sound.

It illuminates the dark surroundings.

"It's so heavy!"

Muichiro leaned back, curled up the scraped spider silk with the blade of the knife, and grabbed the handle of the knife tightly.

——The blade is caught!
Looking at the blade entangled in spider silk, he gritted his teeth and turned his head to look around.

"I'm running out of patience."

Tired stood in front of him, he moved his fingers a little, and looked coldly at the resisting father and son.

【Blood Ghost Art · Engraved Line Prison】

Whoa-!
The arm jerked back!
Swish!
A densely woven spider web suddenly formed from the treetops, and enveloped in the direction of Muichiro!

The sharp reflection of the spider web was reflected in Muichiro's pupils, and he was slightly taken aback.

Muichiro breathed heavily, subconsciously wanting to take a step back.

Look to the side not far away.

Father has easily broken free from the shackles of the spider web.

The elder brother practiced swordsmanship every day, and he seemed to be able to handle it with ease at the moment, and he could even speak out occasionally, making the white-haired ghost opposite him anxious.

Although I have been practicing swordsmanship, the breath of the moon and the fire god Kagura, the flexibility and strength of the body have improved, but I have not been able to master both.

——Only oneself is the weakest.

So, did the guy choose to deal with himself first?

Muichiro was highly focused, and the time around him seemed to slow down a bit, allowing him time to react.

The position of father and elder brother was deliberately kept away by that guy with spider webs.

He withdrew his gaze, and his pupils narrowed to look at the spider web that was approaching in front of him.

If it is cut, it will definitely become a piece of meat in an instant like the female ghost just now.

In my mind, I don't know why, but I think of the past at this moment.

The laughter in the butterfly house.

Shigeru, Takeo, Tanjiro...

Muichiro was in a daze unconsciously, holding up the handle of the knife wrapped in spider silk, his pupils dilated slightly for a moment.

"Muichiro."

It was Tanjuro's voice in the trance memory.

他 说:

"Between swinging the knife, remember the rhythm of breathing."

next moment.

"Hiss—!!" Muichiro came back to his senses, he took a sharp breath of air, his eye sockets widened, and he clenched the handle of the knife tightly.

He stared at the rapidly approaching spider web in front of him.

Memories of past practice kept coming to my mind, and the familiar rhythm of breathing rose and fell in my chest.

The pupils shrank suddenly, and the eyes were firm.

Get moving!
Swish!
Twisting the blade entangled in the spider web in his hand, two decisive blade lights flashed quickly, and the spider silk entangled with the blade suddenly broke!

The moment the blade was released, Muichiro bent slightly, and raised his head.

Facing the sharp spider silk that was already approaching.

Opening the corner of his mouth, white steam overflowed.

【Breath of the Sun·Shape of Four】

【Phantom Sunbow】

then.

across.

Tired of vision.

Swish!
[The spider web cut across Muichiro's body decisively and swiftly, the other party instantly lost the ability to move, and stood there sluggishly. ]
but.

creak...

Tiredly pulling his fingers, he didn't really feel the moment when the spider web slid across Muichiro's body.

What the eyes saw was indeed cut.

——Is it too hard?
Just when I was tired and confused about this.

"Muichiro——!"

Ichiro stared wide-eyed, looked in horror at the position where Muichiro was standing just now, and shouted hysterically.

It's too far away, I was entangled in spider silk just now, so I couldn't run over!
His eye sockets trembled, and he subconsciously reached out and scratched in that direction twice.

His vision faltered, and he looked at his motionless brother in disbelief.

He only felt a chill rising from the bottom of his throat.

Dizziness and roaring in the brain.

Om-!
This is the sound of tinnitus.

"Muichiro" who was called didn't respond, and seemed to just stand there.

Ichiro couldn't imagine what happened just now, his mind was blank at the moment, and he couldn't even think.

Blinking in panic:
"Ah... ah...! Why...!"

Why—why did Muichiro get streaked by a spider's thread.

——Why didn't you resist.

why--

——Why didn't I rush over.

In the field of vision, the hand outstretched in Muichiro's direction was somewhat blurred.

His pupils trembled violently, and the tinnitus became more intense:

"Whoa!!"

Shouted hysterically.

I couldn't even hear my father's shout when he turned his head.

Ichiro was breathing rapidly, his lungs heaving like a broken blower, and he murmured unconsciously a few times.

The hand holding the knife handle was tightly clenched.

He lowered his head and stared at the knife in his hand.

Swish!Swish!
Quickly cut off the spider threads around him with two knives, drooped his shoulders, then turned his head with empty eyes, staring in the tired direction.

boom!
Deep footprints engraved under the feet!

[Complete Works: Breath of the Moon]

He clenched the blade in his hand, turned into an afterimage, and sprinted straight towards Lei!

opposite.

"What are you yelling at?"

"I just couldn't do my duty."

"It seems that the bond between you is only to this extent."

Tired said in a flat voice, looking at Ichiro who turned into an afterimage and disappeared in place, he was slightly puzzled.

——The speed has become faster, what's going on...

Just when he was about to raise his hand and spread a spider web in front of him.

Suddenly caught a glimpse from the corner of the eye.

not far away.

That "Muichiro" standing still.

Turned into an illusory afterimage, slowly fading and disappearing.

"—disappeared?!" Tired stared at Wuichiro who disappeared in disbelief, and shouted in surprise.

Taking advantage of the moment of being tired and shocked.

tread!
Ichiro accelerated suddenly, and appeared beside him in an instant, with the Japanese sword hanging down in his hand, the blade pointing upwards.

Emotions were suppressed on the face with clenched teeth.

Almost regardless of the consequences, Ichiro's muscles tensed up, his eyes turned white, and anger boiled in his heart.

All out.

【One type】

He clenched the handle of the knife and picked it up!

The bright yellow moonlight suddenly lit up on the blade.

puff!

The blade cut across the tired arm in an instant!Cut off at the joints!

"Puff cough ho!!" Tired body staggered backwards, his pupils shrank suddenly, his eyes moved, and he looked at Ichiro who appeared beside him.

——this speed? !
creak...

The other hand quickly moved its fingers, and dense white spider webs instantly condensed on the side!

Spider silk forms sharp webs!Blocked Ichiro's next attack!
"asshole!!"

"Take my brother..."

Ichiro's eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes, his face was full of blue veins, he gritted his teeth, and almost squeezed out a syllable from the bottom of his throat:

"…return!!"

laugh!
Just when he didn't care about it, his flesh body carried the sharp spider silk and wanted to move on.

"elder brother!!"

Muichiro's excited voice came from above his head:
"I succeeded!!"

——?
Ichiro froze in place suddenly, he looked up and looked over his head.

Whoa!
Muichiro jumped down from the tree, his hair was blown by the falling wind, and there was an excited smile on his dirty face:
"Kagura, the god of fire! Mr. Zaomen taught it!"

"I used it!"

【Simple Shape·Phantom Sunbow】——

——Using high-speed movements and maneuvers to leave afterimages in place.

——People with better eyesight can see clearer afterimages.

In the moment he quickly dodged the spider web just now, Muichiro rushed to the top of the forest in one breath.

As for what Lei and Ichiro saw, they were all afterimages left in place.

Ichiro below looked up at Muichiro's intact appearance, and he blinked dully.

--Live?
"Ho...cough cough!!"

His shortness of breath also stopped quickly with the feeling of bewilderment, and he even choked.

At this time.

"Ah! It's gone!"

Muichiro shouted in surprise, a small flute fell from his body:

"Flute!"

In mid-air as it spins and lands.

Swish!
A slender spider thread flashed across, quickly splitting the flute in two from the middle!
Slap!The bright red blood overflowed from the flute and sprinkled in mid-air.

Muichiro's surprised expression was reflected in the crystal blood drop.

……

……

Zhushi Mansion.

"So, Your Excellency is here this time to..."

Yushiro quietly watched Ji Guoyansheng drinking tea.

Sudden.

The upper and lower pairs of eyes that Ji Guoyan Katsumoto had closed opened violently, almost covering his entire face.

He stared straight ahead with six eyes, sipping tea.

While Yushiro was talking, he suddenly felt cold under his feet.

Subconsciously lowered his head, but found nothing.

When he just raised his suspicious eyes.

pat.

In front of him, Ji Guoyansheng had disappeared.

Only the empty teacup was left spinning slowly on the table, making an empty sound.

Yushiro maintained his expression, but his forehead twitched faintly.

……

……

pat.

Wuichiro landed on the ground, he looked at each other in a daze with the even more dazed Ichiro.

Immediately, he bent down and picked up the broken flute on the ground.

"You... Just now...!" Ichiro stared at his younger brother in a daze, his mouth parted, but he didn't say anything.

At this time.

pat, pat.

Blood drips on fallen leaves.

"…enough."

With a gloomy face, he lowered his head, his severed left arm grew rapidly, and a rare and clear emotion called anger appeared on his face:

"I don't want a family like yours."

He muttered in a low voice, slowly raised his hand, and the elbows began to spread bright red.

He raised his head and looked fiercely:
"go to hell!"

Blood oozes from the fingertips, instantly soaking the pale spider silk red.

[Blood Ghost Art Reticle Rotation]

Creak——!
The blood-red spider silk was woven in mid-air, and the red cocoon like a giant whirlpool condensed between the hands.

In the next moment, he will launch towards Ichiro who is the closest in front of him!

The two brothers stood together, looking at the huge scarlet spider thread rushing towards them, the two who were already exhausted could not react in time.

Wei Weilang ran from behind the two of them, and he stretched out his hand.

Just when he was about to sprint with all his strength regardless of the consequences.

This time!

Swish!Swish!
Two black shadows streaked across the ground, wrapped in a gust of wind, and passed Wei Weilang almost instantly.

tread!
Two figures came to Shi Tou's side at the same time.

Claret and snake-patterned feathers were blown by the wind.

Tanjuro raised his head, and he was standing in front of Muichiro.

He glanced sideways at Ji Kuniyan Katsu who was standing beside Ichiro.

Two people, eight eyes looked at each other.

click.

Two crisp sounds of the collision of knives and metals sounded.

Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of dense wind-like blades piercing the air.

wow——

Yin Hong's spider silk lost its support and slowly fell from the air, turning into ashes on the way.

Muichiro opened his eyes, he stared blankly at the back of the person in front of him, and then at the person in front of his brother.

Immediately shouted:

"Uncle Six Eyes!"

Then, his face turned pale, and he quickly covered his mouth with his hands.

In front of several people.

"…Eh?"

Tired and blinking his eyes, he glanced at his head held between the two knives, and said suspiciously:
"what happened…"

thump!
The body that lost its head shook weakly twice, and then slowly fell to the ground.

When he looked around in a trance, his eyes suddenly focused on Ji Guoyansheng in front of him:
"The Winding...!"

He slowly widened his eyes, his eyes were on Ji Guoyansheng, the three members of Shi Tou's family kept moving, and he murmured:

"Ghost...human...exactly the same blood..."

"After becoming a ghost, are you still protecting your offspring... You! This is..."

The light called longing shone in Tired's eyes, and the corners of his mouth trembled:

"The real bond..."

"Really want…"

rustle…

As he spoke, ashes welled up from his tired face.

Tanjuro held Muichiro's Hinrin sword, and he held Tizu's head with the sword, without making a sound.
