Kagaya Ubuyashiki continued:
"And one more thing!"
"That's about how to arrange things for the regular team members after the number of ghosts decreases!"
"Given the frequency of ghost appearances these days, a significant portion of the team members will be in a state of having nothing to do!"
Upon hearing this, Sanemi Shinazugawa replied directly, "What's the point of asking? Just let them train hard during their free time!"
Obanai Iguro, "Human laziness isn't so easy to overcome! If the ordinary team members could train seriously, there wouldn't be just a few of us sitting here today!"
Tengen Uzui said, "Ah, that's right. Many team members are lazy and only train occasionally! That's not glamorous at all!"
"Then what should we do? Hold a knife to their throats and force them to train?" Sanemi Shinazugawa said impatiently.
"We really have to put a knife to their throats!" Teiichi interjected.
Upon hearing this, everyone was astonished.
"Hey, Kato, are you serious?" Tengen Uzui asked.
Teiichi explained, "It's not about actually putting a knife to the ground, but we need to train them using the same method as if a knife were being placed there."
"For example?" Kagaya Ubuyashiki asked softly.
"Let them train with Zhu!"
Three more days passed.
"Hey, Kato, who do you think will win?" Tengen Uzui asked, arms crossed.
Teiichi glanced at Giyu Tomioka and Sanemi Shinazugawa, who were flitting about in the distance, and then spoke:
" Tomioka will win!"
"Oh? Why?" Tengen Uzui pressed.
Teiichi, "I noticed that Tomioka's attacks have become much more powerful each time. Has he mastered the art of making Wielding the Heavy as Light? And Shinazugawa..."
Kagaya Ubuyashiki sighed, " Wielding the Heavy as Light and Lifting Light as Though Heavy are still too difficult for Sanemi!"
"Huh? Is it that hard? Isn't it just that you feel relaxed and then suddenly you get it?" Mitsuri Kanroji stretched out her fingers and gestured in front of her.
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze in that direction.
Seeing everyone looking at her, Mitsuri realized that her statement just now seemed a bit strange, and immediately lowered her head.
Kanae chuckled softly, " Mitsuri, this technique isn't that easy! It requires a high level of comprehension and composure!"
Upon hearing this, Kagaya Ubuyashiki said, "Sanemi is Sanemi not lacking in understanding, but his temperament... sigh..."
Teiichi nodded as well.
The skill of handling heavy tasks with Wielding the Heavy as Light and Lifting Light as Though Heavy, like Transparent World, relies heavily on one's own character.
In the original work, Sanemi only mastered the Demon Slayer Mark, not the Transparent World.
For the same reason.
If he doesn't change his mindset, it will be quite difficult for Sanemi to master this skill.
"How about we distribute the area that Shinazugawa is stationed in to the other Pillars, and then let Shinazugawa train his mind and spirit with me just like the other members?" Gyomei Himejima suggested.
Upon hearing this, Kagaya Ubuyashiki pondered seriously for a long time before slowly nodding.
"That's fine then. I'll talk to Sanemi about it later!"
Gyomei Himejima nodded.
The group turned their attention back to the two people fighting in the distance.
After three days of Hashira Training, Teiichi had a general idea of the current strength range of the Demon Slayer Corps Pillars.
The first tier consists of Gyomei Himejima and Muichiro Tokito.
Like Teiichi, they have all reached the stage of Lifting Light as Though Heavy.
Gyomei was a monk in his past life, and even after becoming a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, he never forgot to cultivate his mind and spirit.
Moreover, he had already mastered the art of handling Wielding the Heavy as Light before Teiichi this technique.
Therefore, his ability to handle Lifting Light as Though Heavy was entirely natural.
This time, he was able to successfully hold off the Hantengu thanks to these techniques.
It can be said that Gyomei is now no weaker than he was when he fought Kokushibo in the original story.
It might even be stronger.
Muichiro's situation is special.
It was so unusual that his entire world was empty, with hardly anything there.
This situation enabled Muichiro to achieve a level of understanding in this area that was truly extraordinary.
Two years of hard work have equaled the amount of cultivation that Dingyi has accumulated Teiichi so many years.
The second tier consists of Kanae, Mitsuri, Giyu, Tengen, and Kyojuro.
They have all mastered the art of handling Wielding the Heavy as Light, Lifting Light as Though Heavy.
They are all relatively peaceful and simple-minded.
The next tier only has one person, namely Sanemi Shinazugawa.
He still hasn't mastered the art of handling Wielding the Heavy as Light.
He trained very hard, but he always felt like he was just one layer away from breaking through.
There's another tier below them: Shinobu Kocho and Obanai Iguro.
However, he is different from Sanemi Shinazugawa.
Neither of them had any intention of learning.
Shinobu Kocho's strength is too weak to be suited to learning this technique.
Teiichi advised her to give up from the beginning, so she is still focusing on improving her speed.
Obanai Iguro initially gave it a try.
After all, he is definitely stronger than Shinobu Kocho in terms of strength, by a considerable margin.
However, after trying it for a while, he found that using a greatsword was really unsuitable for someone like him who also valued agility and skill.
So in the end, I gave up.
Based on the above, the ranking of combat power within the Demon Slayer Corps has almost completely changed.
This can be seen from the result of this Hashira Battles.
At the top of the list is naturally Gyomei Himejima, who possesses a combination of physique, strength, and speed.
The second one is not Muichiro, who also possesses the same mastery of Lifting Light as Though Heavy, but rather Giyu Tomioka.
Although Muichiro to handle Wielding the Heavy as Light, his young age made him Giyu Tomioka's overwhelming strength.
Third is Kanae, even though Teiichi has given Kanae a lot of extra help in recent years.
However, due to the physical differences between men and women, Giyu Tomioka ultimately surpassed Kanae.
The fourth one is Muichiro.
The fifth one is Shinobu Kocho.
She has focused on speed over the years, which has made Shinobu Kocho's speed unmatched within the Demon Slayer Corps.
Those ranked ahead of Shinobu Kocho are all strong in terms of speed or defense, at least able to defend against her Shinobu Kocho flawlessly.
Sixth is Mitsuri Kanroji.
Seventh is Tengen Uzui, who cannot use gunpowder.
The eighth is Sanemi Shinazugawa.
Ninth is Obanai Iguro.
Of course, although there are rankings, the differences between many people are not that big.
You might win this time, but he might win next time.
Therefore, this ranking is constantly changing.
However, during the rotation, players will only rotate within their current ranking.
However, once you grasp the concept, it's normal to jump several places in the rankings.
Just like Shinazugawa, once he grasps the Wielding the Heavy as Light, jumping into the top three would be perfectly normal.
