Muzan Devours the Blue Spider Lily

Besides, Shinri Masato, Upper Rank Three.

If we want to eliminate the Shinri Family, we must get past the real person.

As someone who ranks among the Upper Rank, Makoto's strength is naturally considerable.

At least for now, Dichai doesn't have the confidence to confront them head-on.

"Don't worry, I've already had my men make that thing."

As she spoke, Dichai turned to Tonryoku and said.

"Bring it here and let His Highness Ayu take a look."

"Yes."

Nodding, Tonryoku picked up a box from beside him and placed it on the table.

"What's this?"

Ayu reached out and touched the box, then frowned.

He could sense that the atmosphere inside the box was somewhat strange.

It made me feel a little uncomfortable, but deep down I also had a faint longing.

"This is a weapon belonging to us ghosts."

At Dichai's prompting, Tonryoku opened the box.

After seeing what was inside, Ayu's eyes widened in surprise.

There was only one item in the box: a knife that was mostly black but had some red spots on it.

"This is what the Demon Slayer Corps calls Nichirin Blade?!"

He reached out to touch it, but Ah Yu pulled his hand back.

"That's right, this is a product of my imitation of the Nichirin Blade of the Demon Slayer Corps, after some modifications."

With her arms crossed, Dichai leaned back on the sofa, her tone tinged with pride.

"I've already tried it. Compared to the original Nichirin Blade, this blade is more suitable for us demons to use."

"Your Highness, you should be practicing what I taught you some time ago, right?"

"Now is the best opportunity to test the results of your training."

Dichai's words were like a devil's temptation, constantly urging A Yu to pick up the knife.

After swallowing hard, Ah Yu, still excited, couldn't resist the temptation and picked up the knife.

The moment they made contact, the originally black blade changed.

A faint blue hue begins to appear at the hilt and spreads upwards.

Moreover, the scattered red spots on the blade began to flash regularly.

The knife doesn't look like an inanimate object; rather, it looks more like a living thing.

In the blink of an eye, the blue color had spread all over the blade.

If a Demon Slayer Corps swordsman saw it, it would surely scream in terror.

This sign indicates that the user's swordsmanship has reached a certain level!

Or rather, the Breathing Technique has reached a certain level.

"This is the Nichirin Blade that belongs to us demons."

Chapter 559 Muzan Devours the Blue Spider Lily Muzan

"It belongs to our Nichirin Blade, the weapon of the demons."

He repeated it aloud, his face beaming with excitement.

After playing with it for a while, he reluctantly put the knife back in the box.

"Fantastic! I must say, this weapon is absolutely fantastic!"

The moment he gripped the knife, he felt as if his arm had become one with it.

It felt as if it wasn't a separate object, but an extension of one's own limbs.

"I'm glad you like it."

With a smile, Dichai then pushed the box in front of A Yu.

"This is a gift for you, Your Highness. I hope you will not refuse it."

"This..."

Hesitant, but Ah Yu's heart told him that he absolutely could not give up this opportunity.

Over this long period of time, he had his men forge nearly a hundred weapons made of different materials.

But after trying it out, I felt that none of it satisfied me.

Only the knife in front of him stirred a slight emotion within him.

As Dichai said, this is Nichirin Blade exclusively for demons.

"Aren't we business partners? Exchanging gifts should be a very normal thing."

Dichai spread her hands and looked at A Yu with a smile.

"Could it be that Your Highness is not satisfied with this gift?"

"Since Mr. Dichai has put it this way, then I will accept it."

With a sigh, Ayu nodded and put the box away.

Seeing this, a hint of joy appeared in Dichai's eyes.

"However, how did you manage to improve the Nichirin Blade of the Demon Slayer Corps?"

"Just lucky."

Realizing that Dichai didn't want to discuss this topic further, A Yu wisely changed the subject.

"I've already had everything prepared; now it's up to you to decide."

"I heard that the Shinri Family is capturing humans for the adults. I wonder what Mr. Dichai thinks about this."

Upon hearing this, Dichai gave a meaningful smile.

"Let me ask you a question first: for Your Highness, what factor would most influence whether or not you become Emperor?"

After thinking for a while, Ayu gave his answer.

"Military force, or rather, military strength."

With a cold gaze, A-Yu lowered his head slightly, his face gloomy.

"With enough troops, suppressing my brothers will be a piece of cake."

"Even if Father Emperor has other ideas, they are useless in the face of absolute power."

"Military strength is the foundation and guarantee of everything."

Snapping his fingers, Dichai nodded slightly and replied.

"Then, what could be more suited to be a warrior than a demon?"

"I see. Then I'll wait for good news."

"It certainly won't do what you hope for."

As she spoke, Dichai extended her hand to A Yu.

"I wish us a pleasant cooperation."

"It's a pleasure to work with you."

Before long, Ayu left the room to continue arranging manpower.

Only Dichai and his men remained in the room.

Suddenly, Tonryoku had been silent all along, spoke up without any hesitation.

"Sir, why did you give that knife to Ayu?"

Tonryoku knew exactly how much she had to pay to forge that knife.

Even if they could replicate and improve upon the Demon Slayer Corps' centuries-old legacy, it would cost them several times, or even ten times, more.

"Tonryoku, ever since the battle on the Entertainment District, your mind has become a little dull."

She shook her head, Dichai turned and glanced at him.

"Is it because of Shiragi and the others that you're under a lot of pressure?"

"No, that's absolutely not true."

Upon seeing Dichai's gaze, Tonryoku immediately lowered his head, not daring to look directly at her.

"It's my subordinates' own problem; it has absolutely nothing to do with them."

"That's good. Otherwise, I would consider taking them back."

"Thank you for your understanding, sir."

There was another period of silence, during which Tonryoku did not have the courage to raise his head.

Until Dichai spoke.

"Ayu is just a pawn in my game; I need him to help me test things out."

Standing up, Dichai patted Tonryoku on the shoulder, her tone somewhat meaningful.

"Remember, everything created by the 'Blood Progeny' belongs to me."

"Understood."

Dichai lowered her head even further, her muscles stiffened, and a hint of fear flashed in her voice.

"Okay, you and Shiragi can go and get busy too."

"Yes."

After responding, Tonryoku led Shiragi and the others away.

Only Dichai remained in the room.

"Hehe, the Shinri Family, Ayu, Gui, and the Scribe."

"No matter how much you resist and struggle, I will be the final victor."

"I, Dichai, am the true ruler of the world."

In the dimly lit room, Dichai's unrestrained laughter echoed and lingered for a long time.

Infinity Castle.

Opening his eyes and looking at Nakime in front of him, Kokushibo said calmly.

"Muzan, have you summoned me?"

"Yes, Upper Rank One."

Nodding slightly, Nakime's tone was full of respect, even a hint of nervousness and excitement.

"The master said that he summoned you here today to celebrate."

"Celebrate?"

"The master said he is about to succeed."

Upon hearing this, a hint of astonishment flashed in Kokushibo's eyes.

"Could it be?!"

Without a moment to think, he had Nakime teleport him to Muzan's location.

The scene before my eyes blurred for a moment, and then became clear again a few seconds later.

Meanwhile, Kokushibo arrived deep within the Infinity Castle, at the location where Muzan was.
