Strictly speaking, Chiba Yo had killed three Upper Ranks in total. Kaigaku might have been relatively weak, but he had indeed held the rank for a few days.
"Although those two Upper Ranks might not be at Muzan's side when the time comes, we must consider the worst-case scenario to avoid any surprises.
Even if that happens, however, we will still have the advantage.
Once we reach Muzan, we will need to divide our duties so that we can kill him as quickly as possible.
Oyakata-sama has already worked out the assignments. I will now explain them to everyone."
Amane addressed everyone in the room.
At present, there were fifteen people on their side, while Muzan's side had only three top-tier fighters, including himself. That meant each demon could be assigned five opponents, including three Hashira.
Everyone listened attentively to Amane. Most of them would have preferred to fight Muzan.
"First, those assigned to face Muzan will be Chiba Yo, Gyomei Himejima, Sanemi Shinazugawa, Genya Shinazugawa, and Tanjiro Kamado."
Hearing this, Sanemi felt both excitement and concern. He wanted to fight Muzan, but he did not want Genya to do the same.
Still, remembering that the Demon Slayer Corps' two strongest fighters were also in that group eased his worries somewhat.
"Amitabha... We will carry out this task without fail and slay Muzan Kibutsuji!"
Gyomei pressed his palms together and spoke firmly, tears streaming down his face.
Obanai felt a little disappointed when he heard that he was not among those assigned to fight Muzan.
"Next is Upper Rank Two. Shinobu Kocho, Giyu Tomioka, Tengen Uzui, Inosuke, and Kanao Tsuyuri will be responsible for eliminating him."
Amane continued.
"Ha ha ha! I'll definitely chop the head off that Upper Rank Two guy!"
Inosuke laughed gleefully when he heard his name.
