"Then let's have some fun."
As he spoke, he bent down slightly, assuming an offensive stance.
Upon seeing Imamura's actions, Uichirou's expression also turned serious.
Just now, I failed to block the opponent's attack, resulting in a heavy blow to my chest and abdomen.
He felt a dull ache, and he even felt that some of his bones had cracked.
If things continue like this, the original balanced situation will lead to Imamura.
I will die!
After taking a deep breath, Uichirou's eyes sharpened.
He was prepared to die here.
But before that, Imamura should absolutely not think about leaving this place!
The night wind blew by, carrying with it the smell of blood on my body.
Just as Uichirou was pondering how the opponent would launch an attack, something unusual happened.
Imamura, who had been grinning maliciously, suddenly changed his expression and then collapsed to the ground with a thud.
"Ughhhhh!"
He grabbed his head with both hands and roared loudly.
"My lord, my lord!"
"What's wrong with him?!"
Seeing Imamura like this, Uichirou's vigilance did not diminish in the slightest.
Historically, there have been instances of ghosts taking similar actions.
The Demon Slayer lowered his guard and approached, then suddenly launched an attack.
However, Uichirou soon realized that something was wrong.
Imamura's face turned extremely red, and his eyes rolled back, almost bulging out of their sockets.
With a forceful tear, the black robe was ripped off, revealing his terrifying face.
Not only that, Imamura even tore his own scales open.
Fresh blood flowed from the seven orifices like a stream.
"My lord, my lord, spare my life! Please, spare my life!"
His body was convulsing incessantly, and it seemed as if Imamura was talking to someone.
"Crazy?"
A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, but Uichirou still did not approach.
Even after several back jumps, they widened the distance between the two as much as possible.
What happened next was the most disgusting and terrifying scene of his ghost-hunting career.
"Leave it to me, Imamura. I've done what I promised."
"No, sir, I will try even harder, please spare me!"
"Have you forgotten that when you became a ghost, you said you would dedicate everything to me?"
Suddenly, Imamura's flat stomach swelled up, like a woman who was seven months pregnant.
Between the undulations, it seemed as if some living thing was crawling.
"Aaaaaaah!"
After a desperate cry, Imamura's head suddenly lolled to the side.
From Uichirou's angle, you can see the expression on his face perfectly.
Despair, resentment, anger, fear.
There seemed to be a hint of regret in his eyes.
"Is he... dead?"
Swallowing hard, Uichirou's heart began to race.
For a demon, especially one with the strength of Upper Rank demon like Imamura, such a thing is truly unbelievable.
Sudden onset of a serious illness, leading to sudden death?
Don't be ridiculous. Even an ordinary ghost wouldn't catch a cold.
The reason why Imamura is like this may be related to that so-called "adult".
Just as Uichirou was considering what to do next, Imamura's body suddenly twitched.
"!"
Instantly entering battle mode, Uichirou was ready to fight again.
Imamura shook his head and slowly stood up.
"Sigh, this kid's resistance is pretty tenacious."
After stretching his body, "Imamura" seemed a little unaccustomed to it, as if he had just woken up.
He wiped the blood off his face and then stuffed his eyeballs back into their sockets.
"Don't be nervous."
Looking at Uichirou, "Imamura" revealed a strange smile.
Hello, and goodbye.
No sooner had he finished speaking than he punched himself in the head and smashed it open.
His eyes widened instantly; Uichirou never expected Imamura to do something like that.
Of course, a head injury like being smashed open is not a big deal for "Imamura".
In just a few breaths, his head had grown back completely.
But what appeared before Uichirou was a completely different face.
If the Scribe were here, he would recognize the other person's identity.
It was Dichai, who had just been beheaded!
"Nice to meet you, Tokito Ichiro, I am Dichai."
Dichai bowed slightly and gave a gentlemanly salute to Uichirou.
Did what happened just now frighten you?
Chapter 476 Dichai's Strength
"Who are you?"
A hint of apprehension flashed in Uichirou's eyes as he faced Dichai.
Although he didn't know what had happened to Imamura, it seemed that his fate was not going to be good.
The man before them was clearly the "master" that Imamura had mentioned.
The aura emanating from Dichai is even stronger than that of Imamura before!
"Who I am?"
After a moment of surprise, Imamura burst into laughter.
"Didn't I tell you? My name is Dichai."
"Of course, if you really want to know the answer, you can call me..."
"Upper Rank Six".
He opened and closed his eyes, and then the words "Upper Rank, Land" appeared in his eyes.
Unlike the words seen by Kamihito Ichi and Imamura, the words seen by Dichai were entirely red.
Like thick, fresh blood, it was a chillingly red.
"Another Upper Rank Six?"
Upon seeing the words in Dichai's eyes, Uichirou paused for a moment.
It's utterly unbelievable that two of the Twelve Kizuki Upper Rank Six Moon Six.
"Don't worry about these little details."
Waving her hand, Dichai indicated that Uichirou didn't need to be nervous.
"Perfect timing, I have something to ask you."
As she spoke, Dichai raised her right hand.
Immediately afterward, under Uichirou's gaze, his arm underwent a strange transformation.
"Blood Demon Art, Black Armored Claws"
The arms, already covered in scales, swelled even larger, and then the fingernails grew several centimeters longer, resembling sharp daggers.
"That's impossible!"
Upon seeing Dichai's abilities, Uichirou couldn't help but shout.
"How could you possibly use Imamura's abilities!"
Demons with Blood Demon Art are already rare, and demons like Imamura, who possess Upper Rank strength, have appeared only a handful of times in the past few hundred years.
Moreover, Blood Demon Art is a special ability unique to a demon.
Even Kibutsuji Muzan might not be able to use the Demon Blood Art.
But now, that demon named "Dichai" has actually used Imamura's Blood Demon Art!
"Tsk, this feels a bit uncomfortable."
Dichai shook her arm, frowned slightly, and said.
"As expected, it's not my own body, so the adaptability is a bit poor."
"Never mind, though."
He grinned at Uichirou and said.
"Could you please just die?"
After speaking, he suddenly charged forward and swung a claw at Uichirou.
If we rewind a little, we'll arrive at the time when Tanjiro escaped from Urogi's feet.
Without hesitation, he swung his sword and cleaved the regrown head in two.
However, even when the newly formed head was severed, it did not die.
With the flesh twisted and contorted, the upper and lower parts reassembled to form a new mouth.
Two orbs of light condensed in his mouth and then slammed heavily into Tanjiro's body.
"Click!"
Having taken the full force of the attack, Tanjiro's body leaned backward.
However, he did not lose consciousness.
"The force has weakened!"
Although the light spheres have multiplied into two, their combined power is far less than that of the previous attack.
This also made Tanjiro realize that the opponent could not be infinitely divided.
"The form with words engraved in its mouth, that's the strongest, isn't it?"
Struggling to get off the ground, he cleaved two pieces of flesh into pieces with a single stroke.
"We need to tell other people this news as soon as possible."
