The words had barely left his mouth.
"Yes, Muzan!"
The moment Nakime started playing the biwa, the Infinity Castle began to rotate, and Muzan and his two companions were teleported to their respective exits!
They sent him directly to the outskirts of the Demon Slayer Corps Headquarters.
After Muzan and his companions arrived at the outer perimeter, looking at the dark night sky, they calmly ordered, "Kill everyone still alive here, and find the girl's location!"
"Yes, Muzan."
Kokushibo and Akaza flashed by, each heading in a different direction, and swaggered into the Demon Slayer Corps Headquarters to begin their search.
Muzan, alone, entered the Demon Slayer Corps.
The three ghosts searched separately for a while.
They discovered that the Demon Slayer Corps was already deserted.
Akaza the only one who arrived at the Butterfly Mansion first. However, as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Tanjiro standing in the corridor.
But for some reason, it didn't sense any battle aura, or rather, it sensed very little of it...
Just like when it faced Kokushibo...
Has it already reached the highest level?!
In an instant.
Akaza felt immense pressure; cold sweat even broke out on his back as he braced himself with his hands in a fighting stance.
"Destructive Death - Compass Needle!"
Snowflake-shaped array patterns appeared beneath my feet.
Tanjiro had already noticed Akaza. Seeing the demons arriving, he placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, Asuramaru, at his waist and said coldly.
"I am Kamado Tanjiro, the Sun Hashira, and I will behead you right here!"
As they spoke, they slowly walked down the corridor.
I stood in the courtyard.
The Demon Slayer Mark on her forehead also quietly appeared, but she did not immediately enter the Demonification state, even so.
Akaza could still feel absolute suppression.
"You monster!"
With a roar, he stomped his feet on the ground.
"Destructive Death - Disorder!"
He swung his fists rapidly, unleashing a large number of dense shockwaves.
But it was completely useless against Tanjiro, who simply drew Asuramaru from his waist with one hand, and the blade burst into blazing flames.
He swiftly unleashed several slashes in front of him.
The powerful chaotic Disorder was neutralized so easily!
Akaza contracted sharply upon seeing this; the speed and precision of the strike were simply unprecedented!
Then there was no more hesitation.
"Destructive Death - Annihilation Type!"
Gather strength in both fists and lean forward.
He charged straight forward with unparalleled power.
Faced with this attack, Tanjiro simply raised Asuramaru, "Dance of the Fire God - Round Dance: Blazing Sun!"
He unleashed two sword techniques in quick succession, a feat achieved only after fully comprehending the Dance of the Fire God.
That is the sword form of Dance of the Fire God. In fact, they can be used together, or rather, they were originally designed this way!
The moment the blade clashed with both fists.
Akaza's arm was instantly split in two, and even that half of the arm was severed along with it!
Without a second thought, he immediately raised his left leg and slammed it upwards, unleashing a devastating strike. "Destructive Death - Kick Style - Flying Star Thousand Wheels!"
This kick carried a powerful and fierce impact.
It kicked onto the blade, forcefully sending Tanjiro flying into the air. Even though the foot had already been cut open by the recoil, it continued to kick with incredible speed.
"Foot Stance: Flowing Light and Dazzling Streams!"
A massive, Disorder impact erupted in an instant.
Tanjiro remained calm in the face of this attack.
Holding swords in both hands, he breathed heavily, flames erupting from his mouth! "Dance of the Fire God - Fire Chariot: Scorching Bone Blazing Sun!"
The power of a single strike.
Akaza's leg snapped off instantly, just as the blade was about to sever its neck.
Kokushibo finally arrived.
"Moon Breathing - Seventh Form - Mirror of Misfortune, Moonlit!"
The Kyokoku Kamusari in his hand instantly lengthened, giving rise to a crescent-shaped blade, and he slashed forward fiercely.
It split into five sword energies, forming a fan-shaped cut!
In an instant.
This attack temporarily repelled Tanjiro, but Akaza, who was also within the range of the attack, was cut into several pieces.
Fortunately, it healed itself in the next moment.
If Kokushibo had arrived any later, it might be dead by now!
This guy is so much stronger than the last time I saw him!
But one question lingered in its mind: why hadn't this guy entered those special states?
Aside from that, did they not utilize the power of the monster within that sword?
If he were to unleash that monster's power, even if Kokushibo to stop him, he would surely die...
Hiding in the shadows, Muzan Kibutsuji also sensed this thought, recalling the state of the blade's disintegration during the previous battle.
Could it be that the monster within this sword has now exhausted its power?
This is a possibility, and not a small one.
But it has no intention of making a move; instead, it chooses to continue observing.
Once everything is completely certain.
It's not too late to make a move later!
And its goal this time is to devour that girl!
Of all the Demon Slayer Corps, only this guy's mansion hasn't been searched yet, so it should be here.
But if it's not there.
Then we'll have to try and kill this monster!
Chapter 99 This physical body is terrifyingly strong!
Muzan concealed himself in the darkness, coldly observing everything before him.
And in the courtyard.
Both demons received Muzan's orders.
Kokushibo was the first to make a move.
"Moon Breathing - Ninth Form - Waning Moonswaths!" In an instant, he wielded his swords in both hands, slashing in front of him in a crisscrossing motion, unleashing a large amount of sword energy that wove together.
"Dance of the Fire God - Clear Blue Sky: Blazing Sun, Scarlet Mirror!" Tanjiro countered with his sword, the connected sword strikes instantly shattering the oncoming attack.
But in mid-air.
Akaza had been waiting for a long time, and he made a gesture of gathering his strength.
"Destructive Death - Demon Core: Eightfold Core!"
With a single punch, several shockwaves were unleashed, but these shockwaves were dozens of times larger than those of the Disorder.
Tanjiro could only raise Asuramaru in his hand to defend.
However, he had just received that attack.
Akaza descended from the sky and slammed his fist into the ground.
"Destructive Death - Shattering Style - Myriad Leaf Flash Willow!"
The ground cracked instantly, and shockwaves like blades spread outwards from the center.
At the same time.
Kokushibo has also found his opportunity.
"Moon Breathing - Eighth Form - Moon-Dragon Ringtail!" With hands clenched tightly, he unleashed an extremely large horizontal sword aura forward.
The two attacked simultaneously, one above and one below.
Tanjiro ultimately chose to defend against the sword energy, immediately drawing his sword to block it.
However, the shockwave that followed from below struck his left leg.
His leg is about to break!
Akaza was very confident in the power of his move, and this way he could also confirm the identity of the sword in the man's hand.
Is it still possible to use power?
"Clang!"
The next moment.
A crisp metallic clanging sound rang out.
The shockwave that Akaza had placed so much hope in only tore open the clothes on the lower leg, leaving the flesh inside exposed.
It was just a minor scratch.
"How is this possible!"
Akaza's eyes widened, unable to hide his shock. "You monster!"
This physical defense is terrifyingly strong!
That move just now would have cut through even steel, but this guy only got a minor scratch!
Even Kokushibo was slightly startled.
He's so much stronger now than when we last met!
If they could repair their bodies and re-enter that state, then undoubtedly both of them would die here today!
It could happen under the watchful eyes of both of them.
The wound, though not serious, did not heal.
Instead, Tanjiro simply stood there, sword in hand, staring at the two of them.
"If you want to harm my sister Nezuko, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"
That expression, that state of mind.
Not to mention Kokushibo and the others, even Muzan thought this didn't seem like an act...
But the three ghosts didn't know this.
Asuramaru, hidden in the sword, had already begun plotting against the three of them. He was ready to deliver a Muzan blow to Muzan the moment he showed his face!
Upon seeing Kokushibo, hesitated for a moment before speaking.
They chose to continue their efforts.
