Demon Slayer: Tanjuro Kamado returns from Sekiro

Chapter 154: Spend the whole year practicing escape!

Chapter 154——A thousand years have been spent practicing escape!

Mountainside.

"Kibutsuji Muzan——!!"

Uh-huh! Swish!

[Snake Breath]

【Breathing of Sound】

【Breath of Water】

Several fast figures flashed through the trees, closely following a dishevelled afterimage in front.

"Tsk." Iguro Obana frowned slightly. Even though he jumped and sprinted quickly, he still couldn't catch up with Muzan in front of him:
"You run so fast..." He swung his knife but it missed the target, feeling a little annoyed.

Although the mission was just to pretend to drive away Wuzan.

"You bastard!" Busui clenched his teeth. The feeling of missing out again and again had brought him to the brink of rage.

But the Pillars' desire to kill Muzan was extremely real.

beside.

"Hey, hey... Look! This guy!" Uzui Tengen stepped on the tree trunk and pushed hard, and the whole person shot out like a cannonball.

The incredulous look remained on Muzan who was fleeing in front of him, and the rose-red eyes reflected——

——Muzan’s transparent body.

Among them, multiple hearts and brains are constantly wandering in Muzan's body veins, changing their positions.

"The inference of Kamado and the lord is correct..." Taking advantage of the gap between climbing the tree, Uzui Tengen turned his head and shouted to the other pillars beside him:
"Chopping his neck won't kill him!"

"He has five brains and seven hearts!!"

Hear the words.

Iguro Obane, who also possessed a transparent world, immediately looked at Muzan, and his pupils shrank slightly.

In front.

Muzan, who was desperately fleeing, naturally heard Uzui Tengen's shouting.

He turned his head in anger, and glared at the pillars behind him who were biting him tightly with his ferocious scarlet eyes:

“…Kill me?!”

"wishful thinking!"

Muzan glanced at the pillars and casually swung the bone whip behind him.

boom! !

The supersonic bone whip suddenly smashed into the ground, raising a huge gray curtain, and the surrounding trees shook violently.

"Damn it!" The pillars following closely behind had no time to react and immediately crashed into the dust.

Muzan turned around, sped up again, and ran towards the top of the mountain without looking back.

Even though he is in a broken state now.

Because of the strange knife wound, he couldn't even restore the missing flesh.

But it can't be killed by just a few pillars!
Muzan thought hatefully in his heart.

The reason why he ran away.

He noticed that the Pillars were stalling for time.

Although it is unclear what the ultimate purpose of delaying time is...

But Wuzan didn't dare to gamble.

The figure of Tsugikoku Yoshiichi appeared in his mind, and he was so scared that he shook his head violently, not daring to think about it any further.

——That guy should have been buried underground along with the Infinite City. There’s no chance of him appearing again!
Besides, the amount of information tonight is really too overwhelming.

He urgently needed a safe place where he could stop and quickly think about what had happened!

At this time.

A roar that echoed through the mountainside came from behind:

“Kibutsuji——!!”

"Just running and not fighting! Have you spent all the time for a thousand years practicing running away, you bastard!!"

Fuzugawa Shiya yelled furiously, veins bulging on his forehead due to his excitement, and his wide-open eyes were full of red bloodshot:
"You cowardly rat!!"

tread! !

He stepped on the ground and swung the Sun Wheel Sword in his hand violently, suddenly cutting out a vacuum zone from the dust raised around him!
[Breathing of the Wind - Type 2]

【Claw Claw·Kehu Wind】

The sound of the Busei River echoed in circles among the trees and reached the ears of Muzan in front of him.

pat.

"Thousands of years..."

“…All used to practice running away?” Muzan slowly stopped running after hearing Busei’s words.

creak...

The hideous blue veins spread densely along his neck and extended all the way to his miserable face. He slowly turned his head, his chest rising and falling slightly:

"——Huh?" A low voice filled with suppressed anger sounded.

Muzan turned his head and glanced at the pillars behind him. His scarlet eyes were extremely eye-catching in the dark night:
"Do you know who you are talking to?"

He opened his mouth and choked.

Anxiety rose from the bottom of his heart as if it was crushing his internal organs, and his breathing became rapid:

"What do you know?"

——He didn’t care about the threat posed by these pillars at all!

Muzan's eyes gradually widened, and even the two holes in his chest were twisted and grew new flesh buds due to the fluctuations of his emotions!

He opened his mouth, almost shouting as if to prove himself:

"Who do you think you are?! I care about Jigoku...!"

He stopped talking suddenly in the middle of his speech.

At this time.

Because Muzan stopped, the pillars gradually caught up.

[Breath of Water][Breath of Wind]

Swish!Swish!
Two sharp and twisted blade lights rushed forward at a rapid speed, sweeping up the wind and waves, heading straight for Muzan's neck!

Muzan stood where he was, with no intention of dodging at all.

puff!

The sharp blade slashed across Muzan's neck——

--but!
The moment the blade cut into Muzan's neck, the cut began to heal!
“…What?!” Tomioka Giyu’s pupils suddenly shrank. As the one closest to Muzan, he saw the whole process clearly!
As the Sun Blade passed by, the wounds it had created began to heal immediately!

It wasn't until Tomioka Giyu pulled out the Nichirin Sword that Muzan's neck was completely healed!

"I've already said it..." Muzan looked down at Tomioka Giyuu who was holding the Nichirin Sword, his scarlet eyes without a trace of emotion:
"Who do you think you are?"

He raised his hand, and the bone whip behind him was about to whip towards Giyu Tomioka!
Seeing this, Busuigawa, who was cooperating with Tomioka, quickly grabbed the opponent's two-colored haori, and the two of them suddenly retreated a distance.

Snapped! !

The bone whip was ripped open, and the sound of a sonic boom suddenly echoed around!
At this time.

A cold voice sounded from behind Wuzan.

"Isn't what he said right?"

Iguro Obanai leaned over and appeared behind Muzan, and was about to slash from top to bottom with the Nichirin Sword in his hand!

puff!

He pulled out his twisted blade fiercely, and pierced the heart swimming inside Muzan with incredible precision!
“Ahem!” Muzan choked on a mouthful of blood. He turned his head sharply and glared at Iguro Kobanei who was crouching behind him: “You bastard!”

The crimson eyes trembled slightly.

He was not aware of Iguro Obana's presence at all!

"You've been running away since you saw us."

At the same time, Iguro Obane did not stop talking. He stared at Muzan coldly:

"I have to say, you ran away really fast."

"You won't die even if your neck is cut off."

"Not to mention that there are five heads and seven hearts in this body... These hearts and brains can actually move on their own - it's almost as if they are afraid of being attacked..."

Wuzan held his neck and was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

“Let me guess, could it be that all of these things grew just to save lives…?” Iguro Obanai stared straight at Muzan, observing his expression carefully.

"——In contrast, the only attack method is the monotonous whipping."

Iguro Obanai spoke very quickly, but his tone was extremely cold. His meticulous observation ability allowed him to grasp Muzan's inner fluctuations almost instantly:
"I wouldn't be surprised if you really spent all of your thousands of years of survival practicing life-saving skills."

Muzan's eyes trembled, his heart was pierced, and his body stiffened for a moment.

Ihei's rapid speaking speed left him no room to interrupt.

——Why does this guy know about the heart in my body...? !

This feeling of being seen through at a glance made Wuzan think...

Tsugikoku Yoriichi!!
"You tangled ghost!!"

puff!

Iguro Obanai twisted the knife hard and crushed Muzan's heart directly inside his body!
"It feels like—"

He raised his head and looked at Wuzan:

"——How afraid are you of death?"

When he heard the word "death", Muzan's pupils suddenly shrank, and emotions of anxiety and resentment immediately flooded his mind.

at the same time.

aside.

Tomioka Giyu silently looked at Iguro Obane who had been verbally attacking Muzan.

From the perspective of an outsider, this is how it feels.

He had always been the target of verbal attacks, but this was the first time he felt so fortunate:
"It's great that Iguro is so venomous."

Tomioka Giyuu thought so as he looked at Muzan, whose body was stiff with anger.

next moment.

"Ooohhhhhhh!!!"

Muzan's face flushed red, his hair turned completely white in an instant, and countless stripe-like lines spread all over his body!
Snapped!
Several bone whips unfolded from the surroundings.

See this.

"Did I get it right?"

Iguro Obanai suddenly drew out the Sun Blade and quickly retreated a long distance.

The roots of Muzan's hair began to turn white, and his sharp fangs became more visible. He panted heavily, turned his head, and said to the pillars:

"I changed my mind..."

He pointed to the five posts in the outfield, his face grim and his voice trembling:
"Tonight, you all have to die here!"

Hear the words.

The pillars remained unmoved.

Only Uzui Tengen silently glanced at a distant position behind Muzan.

——It was a wooden house that looked old but was very clean.

It is the house of the Kamado family.

Before they knew it, everyone had chased Muzan to the top of the mountain.
