As a general, she cannot be a good daughter of Kage.

The neck was pierced by a naginata and was corroded by lightning like the previous one. Finally... it turned into light particles and dissipated.

The general waved his sleeves, and the naginata nailed to the tree flew back on its own initiative again, returned to her hand and turned into the original wisteria flower oil paper umbrella. She silently reopened the umbrella and leaned it on her shoulder, as if nothing had happened. He smoothed his loose hair with his fingertips and walked towards the depths of the forest.

【……call. 】

Looking at her daughter's subconscious actions, Hou Ying couldn't help but smile fondly.

Demon Slayer: Self-cultivation as Naruhashira: Chapter 7: What is the Breath of Thunder?

Pfft!

A gushing of blood!

Tanjiro inserted the old nichirin sword in his hand directly into the heart of the kid in front of him. He took a heavy breath and tried to increase his strength again, but the other guy stood up forcefully!

"!"

He turned pale for a moment...then gritted his teeth and grasped the hilt of the knife, trying to penetrate the opponent's body with force.

Pfft!

The blade finally penetrated the opponent's back, but even so, the opponent was still not dead.

"You bastard!!!"

He can even talk!

The little devil's face was twisted in anger, and he endured the pain in his chest and tried to scratch Tanjiro's neck with his sharp nails.

"hateful…"

Seeing this, Tanjiro subconsciously let go of the handle of the knife and bent down!

Whoosh!

The fierce blade wind just scratched his scalp, giving him goosebumps all over his body!

"Stinky boy!!"

The ghost in front of him who was stabbed through the chest by his knife was still howling. Seeing this, Tanjiro grasped the handle of the knife again and pulled it out forcefully, and then another burst of blood spurted out.

clatter...

He hurriedly took a few steps back to keep a safe distance from the other party.

so hard! !

He couldn't help but complain in his heart, recalling the words his teacher Lintaki had told him.

[The key point of the ghost is the neck, but with an ordinary knife, even if it is the neck, it cannot kill them. For this reason, a special knife-Nichirin Sword is used. 】

[The Nichirin sword is a special sword for members of the Demon Slayer Corps. It is made of special steel. It is the only sword in the world that can kill ghosts. 】

The memory was interrupted... He remembered that what he was holding now was the Nichirin Sword given to him by Kintaki. In other words... he had to cut the neck instead of the heart. After all, that was the ghost's weakness!

He got it!

Tanjiro looked at the Nichirin sword with a light blue blade in his hand, his hand tightened slightly, and his eyes became firm.

Tap! !

"Ughhhhhh!!!"

The ghost in front of him was rushing toward him quickly. He didn't panic but paid full attention to it.

hum~

Under his vision, the surrounding forest turned into a dark background. The approaching evil ghost was now wrapped with some kind of silver thread, and the silver-white light was shining brightly.

The smell of thread, found! !

Ding~!

Under his sight, the silver line straightened for a certain second. His eyes wrinkled and he spotted the right moment, adjusted his breathing method, and a trace of visible breath gradually emerged from his mouth.

wow...

At that moment, crystal water began to appear on the blue blade of the Nichirin Sword. The water gradually thickened and turned into a wave-like effect, entwining around the blue sword light!

boom!

Tanjiro lowered his body, holding the Nichirin Sword that had already been wrapped around Mizunami, and dodged towards the kid in front of him!

"Type of Si·Tide of Strike!!"

As he said this sentence, his figure became extremely fast, flashing past the kid and letting the rising blade cut towards the opponent's neck!

Click! !

Different from the stabbing just now, this one was quite easy. The texture of the cut meat instantly separated his head. The churning waves were like the light of a knife, cutting off the kid's neck and letting him fall to the ground helplessly!

"Ughhhhh!!"

The kid knelt on the ground and even fell down weakly. Although his head could still speak, his body had begun to glow with black dust, which dissipated like dust into the world.

"Huh...huh..."

Tanjiro stood on the ground, panting heavily and still a little dazed. He looked back at the dissipated corpse before he regained consciousness.

"It's been chopped...even no bones are left?"

He lowered his eyes and looked at the Nichirin Sword in his hand and couldn't help but exclaimed.

boom!boom!

"!!"

When he heard the sound like an earthquake, his heart immediately lifted. A strong smell hit his nose, making him cover his nose and subconsciously hide behind the big tree next to him!

"What does it smell like? It stinks so much?!"

He held his nose and frowned.

boom!boom!

Not only that, the noise in the distance continued, and he looked over curiously.

"!!"

This sight almost made him sit down on the ground in shock.

"Ah!! Help!! I didn't hear about this thing?!!"

First, a young man ran over. He seemed to be a member of the selection, but his face was pale and frightened. He was already a little hysterical and was running away desperately into the distance.

What was chasing behind the opponent was a... huge object like a meat ball. Its body was a disgusting dark brown color, like poop, and its body shape was very similar. Every step was accompanied by a loud noise and that disgusting sound. There was a sticky sound. The opponent seemed to have more than one pair of arms, but several arms. His position was higher than two stories high!

"What is this?"

Tanjiro couldn't help but wonder, is this also a ghost?If it appears here, it must be a ghost, right?

"Help! Who will save me!"

The young man who was being chased could no longer run. His legs were weak and he lay on the ground with a pale face. He kept backing up on his butt...

Looking at the disgusting behemoth in front of him, he was about to urinate, not to mention that the opponent was holding a dead comrade in his hand.

Pfft!

This monster directly crushed the dead man in his hand and casually dropped it on the ground. A pile of internal organs was spread on the ground, making the young man in front of him even more frightened and speechless!

"Hey~!!!"

He hugged his body as if waiting for judgment.

no!Gotta save him! !

The moment Tanjiro decided to run out, he saw a magical lavender light streaking through the forest like a shooting star. The light even illuminated the dark trees one after another, creating a beautiful brilliance like a starry sky, which made him At that moment, I fell into a trance.

呲呲~!

This dreamy purple light now emits a fierce electric current and directly hits the back of this big guy in the air!

boom! !

With a loud noise and a shock wave that stirred up the surrounding dust, the big ghost's fat body instantly flew out, like a truck full of cargo flying over the young man's head, blowing him so hard that he couldn't open his eyes. .

Boom! !

The next second, the big man fell to the ground, causing a violent roar, startling the surrounding birds, and breaking tall trees nearby.

"Ahhh!!"

The young man hugged again subconsciously but wanted to look over curiously, but unexpectedly someone directly pulled the back of his neck and lifted him up easily like a plastic bag.

"What?! Help! Help-"

"Don't make any noise."

The woman holding him whispered an instruction at this moment.

"Eh? Ah..."

He was honest right away.

The general glanced at the man whose hands were as light as a plastic bag, and threw him directly in the direction of Tanjiro!

call!

"Wow!"

Pfft!

Tanjiro caught the other person but looked at the purple-haired woman in front of him, with a hint of difference in his eyes.

"You, you are...Miss Thunder?!"

Although the other party had changed her clothes and hairstyle, he would never forget her iconic beauty. By the way... could Miss Thunderbolt actually know martial arts?Is he a member of the Demon Slayer Squad?After all, opening a store in a place like this must not be easy!

He concluded so.

"…meet again."

The general who had now changed into the 'Thunder and Lightning General' costume turned around and responded to him. She had heard the noise before and came over, but she didn't expect to meet him by chance.

"Why is Miss Thunder here?"

Tanjiro asked confused.
