Just as Kosuke fell into a daze, a sharp rebuke rang out beside him. "What are you spacing out for? Attack!"
Danzo spat out Great Breakthrough, blowing Shinobu Kocho away, then rushed in with Kosuke to attack her together.
Hiruzen whirled his staff, fighting hard to suppress Tanjiro, his expression grave as he tried to wake him.
"Boy, wake up! Don't you want to avenge your family?"
An even fiercer attack answered him. "Second Form: Blue Heaven!"
It was a spinning slash from above, driven by momentum and blazing flames.
Even Hiruzen had to avoid its edge. He barely dodged with the Body Flicker Technique, then called out urgently, "That didn't work? Then it's up to you, Dawn!"
Hiruzen's Kasugai Crow was quick-witted. It immediately flew over, calling loudly, "It's up to you, Dawn! Up to you, Dawn!"
Dawn and Toneri had each created a clone and were setting up the Four Red Yang Formation to protect this burial ground of heroes.
Hearing Hiruzen call her, Dawn immediately glared over.
"Genjutsu-Tsukuyomi!"
A red light flashed, drawing Tanjiro into an illusion.
But in reality, he paused for only a moment before scorching flames suddenly erupted all over his body!
"Hey, hey! How did he get even stronger?"
Dawn clutched her head, her voice tinged with pain. "There's someone in his mind who broke my Tsukuyomi!"
"What?! Someone actually broke your visual jutsu?! This boy really is the talent His Majesty has his eye on. Good, very good!"
"What do you mean by that? I only suffered that backlash because I was helping you!"
"Ah, sorry, that's not what I meant."
"Then what did you mean?"
"Well, it's, um..."
Toneri interrupted them helplessly. "All right, stop arguing. Hiruzen didn't mean it."
*Can't they see what's happening? Why are they arguing now? Women
