Could a Bright Red Nichirin Blade effectively kill the Demon King Muzan?
Tamayo truly had no answer to that question.
Because until today, she had always thought that red blade was an ability unique to Yoriichi.
Only after Xia Xi explained things to Tamayo,
telling her that at least four people in the Demon Slayer Corps had now mastered this move,
did she understand.
This red blade was actually an ultimate technique that could be mastered through training and study.
If several of the Nine Hashira knew this move, perhaps...
But then she recalled the moment Yoriichi Tsugikuni and Muzan had clashed back then.
The excitement surging within Tamayo cooled again.
"Probably... it still wouldn't work."
"Because Lord Yoriichi could use that move back then, too."
"But even after he slashed Muzan badly enough to leave him seriously wounded, he still couldn't effectively restrict his movements."
"So... unless all twelve of those weak points are cut down in an instant,"
"that man won't die."
Xia Xi rubbed his temples with a slight headache.
The good news: a Bright Red Nichirin Blade worked on Muzan.
The bad news: it didn't do much.
Against the Upper Ranks, they could clearly use a Bright Red Nichirin Blade to keep piling on injuries that were difficult to heal.
Then finish the kill with a final decapitating strike.
But this Demon King...
It sounded like they had to land critical hits on all twelve weak points at exactly the same instant.
Considering the demons' absurdly fast regeneration,
anyone without a Bright Red Nichirin Blade probably wasn't even qualified to take a seat at the table.
"Oh, and Mr. Kurumaji, Muzan can also move those brains and hearts around at will."
"He can constantly and rapidly shift their positions inside his body."
Xia Xi said, "Huh?"
