It was already evening when he left Nada Spider Mountain and returned to Fuji House in the valley.

The continuous travel made Uchiha Isha want to have a good rest for a few days.

But in the face of the consequences caused by the former Lower Six, Hibiki, being killed by him and his attempt to apply to become a"pillar".

Even if he wanted to have a good rest for a few days, it seemed that he could not.

At noon the next day, a figure had already appeared in Fuji House and found him who was resting.

The owner of the figure was not his 鎹騷, nor was he a Hidden or other swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps.

But a... pillar!

To be precise, it was the current Water Pillar - Tomioka Giyu.

There was a reason why Tomioka Giyu came to the door.

The death of the former Lower Six, Hibiki, caused a great shock in the Demon Slayer Corps.

Especially Ubuyashiki Yoya.

He had been paying attention to Uchiha Isha because of the final assessment, and he was directly surprised by Uchiha Isha's brilliant record.

Unexpectedly, the fledgling Uchiha Isha had such strength.

With such achievements, it seems that it is nothing to give Uchiha Ixia the title of"Pillar" directly, and let Uchiha Ixia become the"Tenth Pillar" after the Nine Pillars.

However, the number of"Pillars" in the Demon Slayer Corps is limited after all, and the upper limit is 9 people.

In addition, after all, Hibiki is the previous Lower Six, which is somewhat inconsistent with the rules.

Of course, the most important thing is whether Uchiha Ixia's own strength is really up to standard.

So, he sent Tomioka Giyu, who just returned to the headquarters to report on his work, to find Uchiha Ixia.

If Uchiha Ixia has reached the Pillar level or close to the Pillar level.

He does not mind changing the rules of the Demon Slayer Corps and making Uchiha Ixia the first"Tenth Pillar" in the history of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Pillar-level swordsmen are still very scarce in the Demon Slayer Corps.

In particular, the scope of responsibility of each Pillar is really not small.

It would be great if there could be a new Pillar to help take charge of a part.

This can also greatly reduce the current pressure on the Demon Slayer Corps.

However, what Ubuyashiki Yoya didn't know was.

As the Water Pillar, Giyu Tomioka seemed to have somewhat misunderstood the intentions of his lord.

Giyu Tomioka thought that his lord Ubuyashiki Yoya wanted him to test Uchiha Isha's strength.

If Uchiha Isha's strength met the standard, he would give up his identity as the Water Pillar and hand it over to Uchiha Isha.

Since Uchiha Isha is also a 'Water Breathing Swordsman', it is more appropriate for him to inherit the title of Water Pillar.

At the same time, this can be regarded as satisfying his wish, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

At least, Giyu Tomioka thought so.

He did not think that he was a Water Pillar and thought that he was not worthy of inheriting the title of Water Pillar.

Even in terms of achievements, he had killed fifty demons and killed lower-rank demons, and he was worthy of the title of Water Pillar.

But in his opinion, the Water Pillar should belong to Santo, who almost killed all the demons on Fujiki Mountain in the final assessment of his class and sacrificed himself to protect them.

He always believed from the bottom of his heart that the person who should die on Fujiki Mountain should actually be himself, not Santo.

It is also the responsibility of the Udon to inherit the position of Water Pillar, to shine for the Demon Slayer Corps and protect people from the harm of demons.

Now that he can hand over the position of Water Pillar to a more suitable person, it is also a relief for him.

……

"You are Uchiha Isha, right?"

"I heard that you want to become a pillar? That depends on whether you can defeat me."

When he saw Uchiha Issa, Tomioka Giyuu came straight to the point and said to Uchiha Issa.

Although this remark did not have any other meaning, let alone provocation.

Uchiha Issa also knew that Tomioka Giyuu was so"dull" and"unaware".

But after hearing what Tomioka Giyuu said, he still couldn't help feeling a little unhappy.

Especially, Tomioka Giyuu's extremely bland appearance, coupled with a tone that seemed a little"contemptuous".

It was as if he was overestimating himself by wanting to become a pillar, and that he was not worthy of being one.

"I see!"

""My lord, what you mean is that the former Lower Six is not strong enough. If I want to become a pillar, I need to prove whether I have the strength of a pillar, right?"

Uchiha Isha confirmed with Tomioka Giyuu.

From Tomioka Giyuu's words, he roughly heard this meaning.

The record of hunting down former Lower Six demons, plus the strength of a pillar-level swordsman.

In this way, he can legitimately become the new pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps.

On this point, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya was relatively rigorous.

And he had no objection to his words.

"Yes!"

Tomioka Giyu nodded in affirmation.

"As long as you can defeat me, you will be the next Water Pillar.

"The next Water Pillar?"

Uchiha Ixia was a little confused when he heard this.

Was he going to compete with Tomioka Giyu for the Water Pillar?

It seemed that Ubuyashiki Yoya had no intention of breaking the nine-pillar limit.

At this moment, Uchiha Ixia, who didn't know that Tomioka Giyu had misunderstood his lord Ubuyashiki Yoya's words, was directly led astray by Tomioka Giyu.

But the problem was that he was not using Water Breathing now, but Sun Breathing!

"Forget about the water column. I am using other breathing methods now."

"Besides, I don't mean to compete with you for water column"

"If I really can't become a pillar, I can be an A-class swordsman."

Uchiha Isha shook his head.

He wanted to become a pillar as much as possible, but he didn't want to take away Tomioka Giyu's 'pillar'.

Since I can't become a pillar, it's okay to be an A-class swordsman!

The authority of an A-class swordsman should be enough.

At least it should be no problem for me to go to the swordsmith village and ask someone to help find the location of the Eternal Paradise Cult.

"You are not using water breathing now?"

Tomioka Giyuu was a little confused.

This was seriously inconsistent with the information he got from his lord.

It was said that Uchiha Ixia was a water breathing swordsman?

Since Uchiha Ixia changed his breathing method and no longer used water breathing, how could he inherit his position as the Water Pillar?

"Yes!"

Uchiha Isha nodded and affirmed again.

"Never mind, it's okay if it's not water breathing"

"Come and play a game and you will know"

"As long as you are strong enough, you can replace me and become the new pillar, the pillar corresponding to your breathing method."

After a moment of silence, Tomioka Giyuu said to Uchiha Ixia.

Although he regretted that Uchiha Ixia did not use the water breathing, he had to complete the task assigned by the lord.

As long as he was sure that Uchiha Ixia had the strength of a pillar, it would be fine. As for the water pillar, it was gone for now!

Someone will inherit the position of the water pillar again in the future and spread the name of the water pillar.

"Why must I replace you?……"

Uchiha Ixia wanted to complain.

But he guessed the reason.

This was caused by Tomioka Giyu's"self-abandonment".

Tomioka Giyu felt that the person who should become the Water Pillar was not himself, but his senior brother, Santo.

This was a knot in his heart!

"Forget it, just fight if you want!"

"I happen to be interested in your water column."

"I heard that you created the unprecedented Water Breathing Form 11 Nagi. As a former user of Water Breathing, I would like to see it."

Uchiha Ixia said.

He and Tomioka Giyuu must have a fight.

Because Tomioka Giyuu is now obsessed with this point and insists on fighting him.

Then he can only fight Tomioka Giyuu.

Taking this opportunity, he just saw the so-called Water Breathing Form 11 Nagi, and copied it with the Sharingan, turning it into his own moves.
