Become Supreme Will from Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 305 Drastic changes in Edo

"..."

Wu Mei met Hei Shimo and Tong Mo again.

But...he didn't receive any reply, and as for Hao himself, there wasn't even a shadow.

Neither of them mentioned anything about You Guo. When he mentioned this person again, Hei Shimo and Tong Mo felt as if they had heard of him for the first time.

This made Wu Mei feel extremely heavy.

Could it be that... he wants to use all the members of the Twelve Demons to find Hazel again?

This will definitely not work.

After all, there is still the Demon Slayer Corps. If the Twelve Demon Slayers are wiped out, then his situation will be very bad... The search for the blue Higanbana flower will also be suspended.

The important thing is that judging from what happened to Yareimaru, Hagi knew about him.

For the time being, it is impossible to determine whether a person with such powerful power is an enemy or a friend. There is already the possibility of annoying the other party with this test.

"I have already seen the Demon Slayer's new breathing method. Compared with the original breathing method, it strengthens the body more significantly." Muzan lowered his eyebrows, changed the subject, and said calmly: "They have been moving very frequently recently. … Winding is not irreplaceable, and there is a limit to my tolerance. For Mireimaru and the two pillars he let go, it’s enough for this to happen once.”

"Yes."

Hei Shimo responded.

The meaning of Wu Ke is obvious.

Let them launch a counterattack against the Demon Slayer Squad.

Give the other side some color and dampen the arrogance of those swordsmen.

"very strange…"

But Tong Mo, who was standing aside, touched his head and said with a smile: "I always feel like I have forgotten something... Why am I with Senior Heisimou?"

"Go down."

Wuxian didn't answer and said coldly.

Immediately, the two Shangxian left one after another.

After they left, Wu Kuai scratched the table with his nails, his eyes darkened.

He remembered the feeling when he looked directly into his soul through his cells...that kind of oppressive power.

And just like Miringmaru, he didn't get any information about men from Tongmo and Heishimou.

Obviously, the other party did it on purpose.

"What is his purpose?"

Wu Kai was thinking.

At first, he thought Hagi was on the Demon Slayer side.

After all, this person passed on the new breathing method to the Demon Slayer Corps... However, whether it was Yareimaru, Tongmo or Heishimou, they were all released safe and sound after leaving.

If he was hostile to ghosts, he would have already lost three of them.

Especially the strength of Hei Shimo, Wu Ke is clear about it and fully recognizes it.

Wuhan can't understand the current situation.

Before there is no way to ensure absolute safety, we can only draw a clear line with this person first, and collect as much information about the latter as possible from the shogunate.

You also have to be careful at all times, lest the other party discovers your identity.

……

Wuhan was sitting on pins and needles, thinking about how to deal with it.

Hao was already sitting in the bedroom, holding a portrait in his hand.

The man in the painting, even if it is just sketched in pen and ink, can still make people feel a delicate and enchanting beauty.

Especially those eyes that are different from ordinary people.

"is it him?"

Hao showed the portrait to an old man who came from afar and asked.

"Yes."

When the old man saw the man in the painting, he nodded immediately.

Ghost Dance Tsuji Mukai!

One of the daimyo under the current shogunate.

In order to prevent the Demon Slayer Squad from finding him, Muzan had 'wiped' his traces very cleanly, but the appearance of Hei Shimo and Tongmo still made him aware of Muzan's disguised identity. After all, with his position, the only people who can follow the line of the shogunate are his own people.

Muzan became a daimyo and lived in seclusion. Few people had seen his true face. Even within the shogunate, there was very little information about him.

But he always had to maintain his reputation as a daimyo, and it was impossible not to see anyone.

There are always clues showing up. He just checked the archives from various places and found out the strange situation of the great name Wu Ke.

This flawless portrait was also drawn by Yu's own hand based on memory.

Then, Hagi asked Chiyoko to send the old man away.

Throw the portrait into the brazier and burn it.

If you want to find information about the Blue Higanbana, including controlling the Demon Slayer Corps, and delving into all aspects of academics... you must have a noble identity and power, but you can't be too ostentatious. Therefore, judging from the situation in the shogunate's political power, the daimyo is the best choice. .

Although the energy of the Ubuyashiki clan has also extended to the shogunate, it is still far from being able to reach the level of no misfortune.

In addition, the Uyashiki clan should have had a hunch that Muzan might be secretly observing everything that was going on in the shogunate, so they acted more cautiously and did not want to be noticed.

In this case, due to the asymmetry between status and identity, it is more difficult for Ubuyashiki to discover and determine Muzan's identity.

However, Hao's identity is superior to Muzan.

His authority in the shogunate is higher than that of the other party.

It was not easy for Wu Ke to hide under his nose.

"Inheritance, haha."

Hazy smiled.

Muzan is the inherited daimyo position.

For Muzan and the Demon Slayers, the shogunate is just a tool that can be used and does not affect their war effort.

If the shogunate is dragged into the water, no one will be able to bear the consequences.

First of all, the Demon Slayer Corps has always been led by the Ubuyashiki clan. If the shogunate enters the situation, the Demon Slayer Corps will undergo structural changes. The Ubuyashiki clan will probably lose their say, and the inheritance of swordsmen from generation to generation will also be undermined. When it comes to destruction, worldly power is complicated.

In addition, casualties will also increase.

For Muzan, he must control the number of ghosts... If the shogunate turns its attention to him, the pressure he will bear will be unimaginable. In order to fight against the shogunate, more ghosts have to be transformed, and once the number of ghosts increases, it means out of control.

As long as the grouping phenomenon that he is most worried about appears in the camp of out-of-control ghosts, his position as ghost king will be in jeopardy.

Therefore, in the world of Demon Slayer, the concentration of the power system lies in the demons and human swordsmen, and has nothing to do with the shogunate.

Secular officialdom is just a backdrop.

"It's just that because you all hold this idea, the power system has been unable to improve... The area of ​​​​the soil determines the harvest of food." Hao murmured.

As soon as he finished speaking, Chiyoko, who had left and returned, led someone back and stood at the door.

It's Daisuke Waseda of the practice office.

"what happened?"

Seeing the anxious look on his face, he had some expectations.

"Sir, something happened in Edo."

Zaodao hurriedly stepped forward, knelt down to salute, and said in a deep voice.

"explain."

"That one...is dead."

Zaoda swallowed.

The person he was talking about was undoubtedly the head of the Tokugawa family.

The current ruler.

"How did you die?"

When I stopped at Edo Castle before, I saw that he was still alive and kicking. He could not have died of illness, but could only have died suddenly.

"He was... attacked and killed by someone at night. The murderer... the murderer is very likely... the young man named Zechuan who ran away from our Youguo." Waseda stuttered, "Someone copied the murderer's appearance. …It’s very similar to what people in Youguo described.”

This is also the reason why he came to find Hao!

"Yeah...I know."

Hazy nodded, quite calm.

It is easy for a ghost to kill an ordinary person, even the king.

But before that, Wuhan was deliberately controlling... not allowing the ghosts to extend their claws to the upper echelons of the shogunate, so as not to cause drastic changes.

But now...

"it's time."

Hazy murmur.
