Chapter 444 437. Desire

The sharp belts were extremely tough, and they continued to attack Tanjiro one after another. The frequency was so high that they almost overlapped. Tanjiro kept blocking with his knife, and his arms were numb from the continuous vibrations.

Wherever the two figures passed, bricks and tiles were lifted up like demolition, and the sound caused alarmed the entire street.

Although pedestrians in this 'city that never sleeps' didn't know what happened specifically, they subconsciously fled in all directions when they heard such violent noises.

The fighting became more and more intense, leaving Tanjiro no time to worry about whether ordinary people would discover the battle. Human beings do not have extraordinary resilience like ghosts. Even if they are trained by devils, they cannot change their human nature. As long as they are not careful, this weird belt will leave fatal scars on his body.

"boom--"

Using the impact of the belt to distance him again, Tanjiro used the strength on the eaves, glanced at the direction of the Fallen Princess from the corner of his eye, and adjusted his breathing.

The breath of water, the ten shapes, flows from generation to generation.

Tanjiro did not choose to use the Breath of the Sun. The load of the Breath of the Sun would be too great if he delayed for time. The Breath of Water, which is good at defense, is more useful in the current situation. What he wanted to do was delay until others arrived.

But due to delay, he still chose the most powerful move of water breathing from the very beginning.

Because the ghost in front of him... how should I put it, Tanjiro felt that she had the aura of the upper string ghost in her body, and it was indeed much stronger than the lower string ghost, but when they actually fought, he found that she was much weaker than the other upper string ghosts he met. , at least it won't make him feel powerless.

Anyway, he felt like he might be able to handle it alone.

So he was thinking that maybe he could find an opportunity to kill him?

As the figure rotated, the Nichirin Sword drew a moon-like arc in the night sky, one after another, surrounding Tanjiro.

The incoming belts were all bounced away by the blade, and they bounced farther and farther each time.

After another duel, Fallen Girl frowned slightly.

She could clearly feel that the boy opposite was getting stronger and stronger with the sword dance.

Seeing the Nichirin Sword getting closer and closer, she began to panic.

Because facing this young man's sword skills that combined both offense and defense, she couldn't find a way to break it for a while.

"You can't take this knife by force."

Although she didn't know how to deal with it, her instinct told her that she must find a way to avoid it.

So, with a violent roar, the belt lifted the roof.

"!!?"

"asshole!"

Tanjiro had an angry look on his face.

Because this ghost's behavior will undoubtedly hurt the ordinary people in the house who have not yet evacuated.

Although most of the people on the street had sensed the danger and ran away, there were still people in the house who didn't know what was going on outside and were lost in desire.

And this is indeed the purpose of Fallen Princess.

"Hmph! Aren't you quite capable? Demon Slayer Squad?"

As a ghost, of course she knows the meaning of the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps fighting.

Isn't it just to protect these weak, pitiful and stupid humans?

There was a reason why she chose Flower Street as a hiding place.

It’s a mixed bag here, but for better or worse, they’re all human.

And anyone who is human can be her hostage!

"fine……"

Seeing that no one was on the lifted roof, Tanjiro breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously. The Nichirin sword in his hand accelerated, and his steps approached Feng Ji.

But such a reaction put a triumphant smile on Duo Ji's face.

If she meets a swordsman who doesn't care about ordinary people and only cares about killing ghosts, her move will be useless. This guy looks very nervous, which means he is getting what she wants!

"Sure enough, humans are stupid creatures."

Fallen Princess jumped down to the room and cast a provocative look at Tanjiro.

Then he waved his belt and opened a path on the wall, unscrupulously.

"asshole!"

Tanjiro stopped the sword skill in his hand. Although the 'life flow' was very strong, it would affect the speed of his actions. The ghost in front of him obviously saw this and forced him to stop in this way.

But he had no choice but to stop his sword skills and catch up.

Because Fallen Princess has taken the entire "Flower Street" hostage.

"stop!"

In order to protect the people who were still in the house and didn't know the situation and had no time to evacuate, Tanjiro quickly followed.

······

"What's wrong?"

Although Inosuke has a bad temper, his perception is surprisingly sharp.

He could tell at a glance that the people around him were distracted.

For example, this guy who calls himself the 'God of Gorgeousness' has been following the old guy in front with a worried look since just now. He has no intention at all. If someone hadn't led the way, this guy would have been lost in the flower street complex. in the streets.

"..."

Usui Tianyuan was silent when asked by Inosuke.

"well……"

Xuanhao, who was leading the way, sighed helplessly and turned back.

"Go ahead and find your missing wife first. Leave that ghost to me. Inosuke, you go with him too."

Yusui Tianyuan was slightly stunned when his inner thoughts were revealed at a glance, and then stopped.

"That direction, and there..."

Xuan Hao raised his hand and pointed in two directions, "I feel the same aura as that ghost in these two directions. You can start looking from these two places. Let's split up and move quickly."

"grateful!"

Yusu Tianyuan's eyes immediately became clear.

He bowed deeply to the old man in front of him, and then disappeared instantly.

"Forehead……"

Inosuke on the side was still stunned.

"Don't be in a daze, go look for it somewhere else."

"Oh! The pig is advancing!"

Seeing the two figures moving away quickly, Xuan Hao shook his head helplessly, turned around, and walked slowly towards the breath that was shuttled between the buildings not far away.

There are still crowds of people on the streets.

After all, this is a city full of desires, and small fights in the distance don't seem to affect the normal operation of the city.

The old man walked through the streets against the flow of people, walking very slowly, taking in all the people's desires.

Not everyone is worthy of being saved. If it weren't for Wuhan's reasons, he wouldn't even hate creatures like ghosts.

After all, this is how the world works. Where there is good, there will be evil.

Ghosts are just a form of manifestation of evil. In the final analysis, they are just 'human' desires.

Human beings are such selfish creatures. Most of the time, they can only care about themselves.

But when I see others in trouble, I will always lend a helping hand unconsciously.

It sounds contradictory, but that’s what it’s like to be human.

"That's why I prefer humans."

······

Behind the glamor, there are always shadows.

Corner store.

In the lowest-end shops in Guoguo, geishas who cannot be named by customers or who are sick will be sent here.

The place is dilapidated and incompatible with the bustling city center, more like a slum.

And this is the end of one of the directions Xuan Hao pointed to.

Yusui Tianyuan came here with a gloomy expression, and then found Young He, one of his wives who was trapped here and was dying.

Hinaku was very smart and successfully discovered the identity of Warabihime Ghost while lurking in Flower Street, but the other party was also very wary and always suspected her. She was guarded at all times and could not even find a chance to pass on the news.

She had no choice but to take poison and try to escape from the Kyogoku House on the pretext of illness. Unexpectedly, Warabihime gave her a belt as a farewell gift when she saw her off. This was naturally to keep her under close surveillance, and Insurance that can kill someone instantly in the event of an 'accident'.

But even if he knew this, facing the absolute power gap, Xiaohe couldn't refuse such a 'farewell gift', otherwise he would be killed immediately.

"Her belt can absorb and imprison humans. In this way, she captured many young and beautiful girls. Most of these girls should still be alive..." The weak Hinata whispered the information to Yu who was holding her. Marrow Tianyuan listens.

To sum up, this ghost hates ugly things, whether human or otherwise. It only eats beautiful things and likes fresh ones.

"So...she is quite picky about food, right?"

Yusu Tianyuan's tone became colder and colder.

Summarize the current information. This ghost has imprisoned many girls in a certain part of the city as a 'reserve food'. If nothing else, it is exactly the other direction that Mr. Xuan Hao pointed to.

"Don't worry about this mission anymore. The Demon Slayer team has a very strong lineup this time. Even if Muzan comes in person, he will be dead."

As Yusui Tianyuan spoke, he stuffed the antidote pill in his hand into Xiaohe's mouth, "Leave here immediately after the antidote takes effect, and organize the evacuation of all ordinary people. Do you understand me?"

"yes……"

Listening to the soft response of the young crane in his arms, Yusui Tianyuan gently put her down, and then disappeared again.

On the roof, he ran quickly towards the other direction pointed by Mr. Xuan Hao.

While running, he listened to the sounds around him, and finally found clues on a deserted and dilapidated street.

"Here, deep underground!"

The sound of someone fighting came from the underground. The echo was very loud, and Yusui Tianyuan, who was extremely sensitive to sounds, could hear it clearly.

He leaned down to the ground, and the sound came into his mind, and the underground scene appeared in his mind like sonar.

There is a cave deep underground here, but the tunnel leading there can only barely allow a child to pass.

"Qiang——"

Two huge sun-wheel knives connected by chains were slowly pulled out from behind by Yusui Tianyuan.

Veins suddenly popped out in both arms, and strength suddenly emerged.

Breath of Sound·One Type·Boom!

As the name suggests, a violent roar echoed across the sky in an instant.

The double swords he uses are unique and can cause shockingly powerful explosions.

"Tsk——"

Fallen Princess smacked her lips while avoiding Tanjiro's pursuit.

"This voice... can make such a big noise, is it Zhu?"

Listening to the violent roar in the distance, Fallen Girl felt more and more that the situation was not good.

She knew that direction, probably the lair she used to hide people had been discovered, but she didn't have the time to worry about it now.

Because just the young man chasing her behind her already made her feel difficult enough!

"You brat, how many people are you here?"

"No comment!"

Tanjiro's expression turned livid from just now.

Because the ghost in front of him has already touched his bottom line.

To actually try to threaten him with an ordinary person's life is simply unforgivable!

"one by one……"

The expression on Fallen Ji's face became more and more fierce, "It's really annoying, you hateful humans."

"go to hell!"

Four sharp and tough belts attacked Tanjiro from four directions.

"Damn guy, it's you!"

Tanjiro faced him without hesitation, his breathing rhythm began to change, and the sword skills in his hands also began to change.

The breath of the sun, the shape of the sun, the red mirror of the scorching sun.

The belt close to him was cut in an instant. This was the first time he had cut off these tough belts.

Dark red blood spattered from the fracture, and these belts were indeed one with the ghost.

"!"

Fallen Princess became even more panicked when she looked at her severed belt.

The sword skills used by the young man in front of him changed instantly, becoming more powerful than before, and the whistling sound that hit his face... was he breathing?

For some reason, the sound of such heavy breathing made her feel a little trembling.

Breath of the Sun·Shape of One·Fire Dance.

"hateful!"

Seeing the arc-shaped sword light in front of her that seemed to be burning with flames, Fallen Princess was forced to keep retreating.

The young man's attack in front of her became more and more fierce, without any mercy. The hot wind blade left a shallow blood mark on her face.

The stinging feeling made Fallen Girl even more annoyed, "How dare you! Cut my face!"

"..."

The look on Tanjiro's face was still unmoved. In fact, he wanted to say sorry, because what he wanted to chop was the neck, but the ghost just avoided it.

The belt whipped the air and made a sharp sound, once again shrouding Tanjiro who was so close at hand.

But faced with an attack that covered almost all retreat options, Tanjiro did not panic.

Breath of the Sun·Shape of Eleven·Magic Sun Rainbow.

His figure began to spin like a dance, and with a high-speed dodge, the whole person disappeared on the spot, leaving only an afterimage that was pierced by the Fallen Princess' belt.

Seeing the pierced figure in front of her suddenly disappear without a trace, Fallen Girl was stunned for a moment.

"Where?"

In the dark night sky, a line of 'gap' that only Tanjiro could see connected from Fouhime's neck to the Nichirin Sword in his hand.

His flipped figure instantly appeared in the sky behind Fallen Princess, and the blade in his hand slashed out along the line of 'gap'.

Breath of the Sun·Type of Ten·Train.

The flaming blade drew a perfect arc like a wheel in the night sky, aiming directly at the back of the Fallen Princess's neck.

But just when the sword was about to touch the target, the line of gap was broken.

It seems that Fallen Princess sensed the danger and wrapped herself up with her belt like crazy.

Even if the belts were cut off by the slashing attack in mid-air, it had no power to continue cutting off the neck.

"well……"

Tanjiro naturally knew this, sighed slightly, put away his knife and distanced himself.

Human beings are not allowed to make mistakes in the battle against ghosts.

Now that he has the upper hand, it won't be worth it if he makes a mistake in his haste and allows the opponent to seize the opportunity.
