Will the Demon Slayer Corps Disband?
In the blink of an eye, the Demon Slayer Corps members gathered in the hall.
Perhaps it was the overwhelming momentum of Laskey's nine consecutive victories, or perhaps it was the astonishing nature of the 'Rokushiki' he displayed.
Of course, it's also possible that the information he shared about annihilating Muzan Kibutsuji and the 'Twelve Kizuki' was so shocking that everyone subconsciously chose to follow his suggestion and come inside.
As for the term "World Government," they simply ignored it.
At this time.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki sat in the head seat, with Hina and Hinaka sitting on either side behind him. Opposite him were Laskey and Mumei, who was a little behind. To his left and right sat the Nine Pillars and the Former Water Hashira Sakonji Urokodaki.
The atmosphere was also very solemn and serious.
"Mitsui Hayato, you said that Muzan Kibutsuji and the 'Twelve Kizuki' were all wiped out by you. Is that true? And what do you mean by 'you'?"
Kagaya Ubuyashiki, as the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps, solemnly took the lead in asking the question.
"First of all, Mitsui Hayato is my alias. My real name is Laskey, and Mumei is not my daughter; she is my subordinate."
Laskey's expression remained calm and composed, while the pillars on both sides who heard these words showed surprise.
The Mumei behind him gave Shinobu Kocho and Mitsuri Kanroji a somewhat embarrassed smile; after all, he had lied to them.
"As for Muzan Kibutsuji and the 'Twelve Kizuki,' they were all eliminated by our Army's Lieutenant Vice Admiral Crocodile within the Infinity Castle two days ago."
"."
Upon hearing Laskey's words, the Demon Slayer Corps' high-ranking members fell silent. Their first reaction was that this person was talking nonsense!
However, the strength that Laskey had previously demonstrated prevented them from making careless remarks of doubt.
"What is Infinity Castle? And are the other two Japanese Government officials?"
Kagaya Ubuyashiki asked in a deep voice.
"The Infinity Castle is Muzan Kibutsuji's headquarters, located underground in Hachioji City, and we come from the World Government, not the Japanese Government."
After saying that, Laskey began to manipulate the Visual Den Den Mushi on his shoulder, switching it from a live broadcast to a relay broadcast, with the footage provided by the command center on the Sea Star Homeworld.
Soon, two beams of light were projected from the Den Den Mushi's eyes, forming a square virtual screen in mid-air.
However, this startled the pillars on both sides. The moment it emitted light, the Stone Hashira, Gyomei Himejima, and the Flame Hashira, Kyojuro Rengoku, who were closest to Kagaya Ubuyashiki, immediately stood in front of their Master on guard.
At the same time.
The Wind Hashira Sanemi Shinazugawa, the Water Hashira Giyu Tomioka, the Serpent Hashira Iguro Obanai, and others also quickly stood up, their right hands hovering over their Nichirin Blade as they stared intently at Laskey and the Mumei.
Although they didn't know what the World Government was, they could tell from the voices that the two people came from another organization.
Furthermore, its ability to project images onto Den Den Mushi) is so similar to the abilities of demons that the Pillars suspect it is actually a snail-shaped demon.
"Hey, Shinobu-neechan, Mitsuri- neechan, don't be afraid. It's Den Den Mushi. I was shocked when I first saw it, but it's really not a threat."
Mumei quickly stood up and gave a brief explanation of the Den Den Mushi's functions in rapid-fire speech, which made the surrounding Pillars hesitate.
They had heard of telephones, but they had never heard of video telephones, let alone this kind of biological telephone; it was simply unbelievable.
Fortunately, the Mumei's words did have some effect, preventing the pillars from making any rash moves.
At this moment, extremely clear dynamic images began to play on the virtual screen in mid-air, deeply attracting the attention of everyone present.
The screen first showed Captain Guts, the Horobi, and the fierce battle between Muzan Kibutsuji and the 'Twelve Kizuki'.
In fact, these Pillars had never seen Muzan Kibutsuji, nor had they ever encountered these 'Upper Rank' and 'Lower Rank' beings.
The principle is very simple.
If a 'Lower Rank' encountered them, they would definitely be killed instantly and wouldn't appear on screen. If they encountered an 'Upper Rank', they probably wouldn't be alive now, let alone encounter Muzan Kibutsuji.
However, based on the power they displayed and the numbers in their pupils, they are indeed very likely the 'Twelve Kizuki'.
And when Shinobu Kocho's muttering voice appeared, it confirmed everything.
"Rainbow-like irises, a purple hat, a spot on the top of his head that looked like it had been drenched in blood, and that carefree smile that was always on his face—there's no doubt, that white-haired guy is the ghost who killed my sister."
As everyone knows, only an Upper Rank demon has the ability to kill a Pillar one-on-one!
"Horobi sister, watch out!"
At this moment, Mumei, watching the scene where Horobi was surrounded and constantly in danger by numerous 'Upper Rank' and 'Lower Rank', subconsciously tensed up as well.
To be honest, this was the first time either she or Laskey had ever seen these things.
Especially Laskey, with his shrewd eye, could easily see that the strength of those 'Upper Rank' was no less than that of the elite members of CIPHER POL.
Therefore, he was not surprised at all when he saw that the Horobi had been captured alive. However, the strength displayed by Muzan Kibutsuji was indeed troublesome for this CP9 captain.
Even if you swapped him with Captain Guts, it would only mean he could hold on for one more day.
"Ah! Captain!"
When Mumei saw Captain Guts' arm blown off by Muzan, his little face was filled with worry and fear. Similarly, the surrounding Pillars also turned pale after witnessing Muzan's power.
With their current strength, even if they all attacked together, they would most likely not be able to get past those six 'Upper Rank'.
Thinking back, we had previously boasted about finding and Muzan, but now it seems we were truly courting death and overestimating our own abilities.
Finally.
The climax of the scene arrives: strands of sand, illuminated by the lights, resemble a shimmering golden rain falling from the sky.
Immediately afterwards, a sandstorm swept through every corner of the Infinity Castle.
"Ha ha ha ha ha~~"
Not long after, a figure nearly a foot taller than the 2.2-meter-tall Brother Himejima emerged from a cloud of yellow sand.
That distinctive, heavy-hearted laughter, which had been heard two days earlier in Infinity Castle, now echoed Empress at Ubuyashiki Estate.
What followed was quite dramatic.
The 'Progenitor of Demons,' whom the Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps considered invincible, was utterly defeated by Vice Admiral Crocodile.
"Why can his body turn into sand? Isn't he human?"
Sound Hashira Tengen Uzui stared wide-eyed, hardly believing what he was seeing, because in their minds, normal people couldn't possibly have superpowers.
As for the elemental phenomena produced by Breathing Technique and Swordsmanship, how can they be considered superpowers? They are normal and reasonable phenomena!
"That's the elemental transformation of a Logia Devil Fruit user; the ability comes from a Sea Star treasure called Devil Fruit."
Mumei took on the role of guide again, explaining the Devil Fruit to them, which aroused the curiosity of Mitsuri Kanroji, the Love Hashira.
Are you one too?
"Oh, no... I'm not."
Mumei scratched his toes awkwardly and said, "Exchanging Devil Fruit internally requires a lot of points, and I only recently joined CIPHER POL. Buying one would cost at least 100 million Beli, which I don't have!"
What is CIPHER POL? And what is Beli?
The Pillars present only felt that one novel thing after another was coming out of the mouths of Mumei and Laskey, while the screen image disappeared automatically after Crocodile drained Kokushibo.
Although they didn't see the end, based on Laskey's earlier words "completely wiped out," they could imagine the Muzan Kibutsuji and the "Twelve Kizuki."
They're all definitely dead!
Now, a very important question faces the Ubuyashiki Family and the entire Demon Slayer Corps: what should they do next?
Should it be disbanded?
