Gyutaro watched Tanjiro tense up before him. Somehow, he sensed a faint threat coming from the boy.
Something seemed to be changing about this brat...
Gyutaro narrowed his eyes. Not far away, Daki, who was being pinned down by Inosuke and Zenitsu's combined assault, saw this and shouted in bewilderment, "Brother! What are you doing?! Hurry up and kill that guy in front of you... then come help me!!!"
Hearing her, Gyutaro turned to glance toward Daki. When he saw that two brats had actually tied her down, he immediately turned back to Tanjiro.
"Blood Demon Art: Flying Blood..."
"Blood Demon Art: Nezuko's Cosmic Great Throw!"
Suddenly, a shout rang out behind Gyutaro. He froze for an instant, then whipped his head around. The moment he turned, Nezuko came flying in from afar in an Ultraman-like pose and punched him square in the face.
Bam!!!
Caught completely off guard, Gyutaro was knocked clean off his feet and sent flying. His facial contortions could have rivaled those of a certain Pain from another series.
Nezuko slammed on the brakes and forced herself to a steady landing. She gleefully stretched out both arms, and Chinatsu wished she could whip out a scorecard right then and give her a [10!].
"N-Nezuko?"
Tanjiro stared blankly for a moment at Nezuko, who had suddenly dropped from the sky. That moment of distraction caused his condition to plummet, allowing the poison to affect him more severely.
Seeing this, Nezuko hurriedly pressed both hands against Tanjiro. With a cry of "Exploding Blood!", the special flames of her Blood Demon Art engulfed his entire body.
His body remained unharmed, while the poison inside him visibly burned away in the flames. Within just a few seconds, Tanjiro was back to normal.
"Nezuko, your fire can even neutralize poison?"
Dumbfounded,
