The plan
roof.
Daki stood quietly on the rooftop.
The ribbons that had regrown behind her swayed in the breeze.
Recalling what had just happened, Daki felt a surge of anger and panic.
What angered me was that I had been seriously injured again!
That's based on the number of times my head was chopped off before.
I've suffered three serious injuries tonight.
He was beheaded twice before!!
Am I just too weak?
No! It can't be!
The first time was because I was ambushed by that pillar, so it definitely doesn't count!
The second time, with that Boar's Head, I deliberately gave him a opening, so it can't be counted either!
And that blond kid just now also launched a sneak attack!
Damn, Demon Slayer really this despicable now?
They always resort to sneak attacks!!
I'm not human, fine, but why aren't you Demon Slayer human either?!
Daki angrily looked up and saw that the blond-haired man was jumping towards her, and Daki couldn't help but feel a pang of panic.
Judging from the speed that guy was going just now.
Even if it came straight at me, I probably wouldn't be able to dodge it so easily, would I?
Damn it, why was it so easy for me to catch this guy back at Kyogoku House?
Unable to figure it out, Daki decided to stop thinking about it for the time being.
The silk sash behind her waist swiftly lashed out towards the blond-haired man's position.
In short, I can't let this Demon Slayer get close to me, otherwise, given his speed just now, I won't be able to stop him at close range!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!...
The ribbons danced in the air, crashing down on something with each fall.
Zenitsu skillfully dodged on the rooftop.
He hadn't yet figured out how to kill her, nor did he have much energy to fight Daki head-on.
After all, he only knows one sword technique and is good at quick battles, not prolonged warfare.
It's already good enough that we can keep the other party involved like this.
More importantly, the Godspeed he had just displayed had some effect on his feet.
Thunderclap and Flash - Godspeed is a further development of the First Form.
You could say it's different from the regular First Form, or you could say it's no different.
The difference is that Godspeed is the most extreme and fastest form, which concentrates the power of the whole body.
There's no difference because Godspeed is simply the First Form, which unleashes the full power of the body.
Currently, Zenitsu can only use the "Divine Godspeed" technique three times.
After three times, the legs will be unable to withstand the pressure and will temporarily become unable to exert force.
After using it just once, he already felt a slight numbness in his legs.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!...
The ribbons continued to fall, following Zenitsu's figure.
Suddenly, the banging stopped abruptly.
Zenitsu's dodging movements also came to a halt.
He looked into the distance with a puzzled expression.
Daki was standing on the rooftop, head down, seemingly doing something.
Seeing this, Zenitsu frowned slightly.
After thinking for a moment, he drew his Nichirin Blade.
Thunder Breathing - First Form!
Daki.
She's having a telepathic conversation with her brother.
"Mei, how are you?" Gyutaro asked.
Upon hearing her brother's question, Daki could no longer bear it and revealed the grievances she had suffered that night.
"Brother! Those Demon Slayer are so despicable! They all know how to ambush! They've already chopped my head off twice tonight, and I was ambushed again just now!!"
"Alright! It's alright! It's alright! We'll take care of them! One of the Pillars is coming tonight, and when we finish him off, Lord Muzan will be very happy!"
Gyutaro comforted him affectionately, then asked again.
"Is this the only Demon Slayer left outside now?"
"I don't know! The battles tonight are always like this. Just when I'm about to take one down, another one pops up! Just when I'm about to take one down, another one pops up! Even after I take down this Demon Slayer, I don't know if another one will come along!"
At this point, Daki seemed unable to bear it any longer and screamed in her mind.
"Ugh, so annoying!!!"
"Alright! Alright! After we deal with these Demon Slayer tonight, I'll grant you whatever you want! Leave the rest to me!"
Whoosh--!
The Nichirin Blade slashed towards Daki's neck.
At the critical moment, Daki suddenly raised her head.
Zenitsu had been on guard for this moment, but when he actually saw Daki raise her head, Zenitsu pupils couldn't help but contract slightly.
Suddenly, a vertical pupil appeared on Daki's once smooth forehead, with a large "Lu" character etched above it.
Bang!
Zenitsu pushed off with his foot and quickly retreated.
The ribbons followed closely behind Daki like a tidal wave.
Bang!
The ribbon crashed onto the roof, causing a section of it to collapse.
Zenitsu maintained his backward leap while slightly frowning as he watched the incoming ribbons.
What's wrong with the eyes?
Moreover, the speed and power of these ribbon attacks seem to have increased significantly!
Bang!
The ribbons continued to fall.
Zenitsu shook his head.
No, there's no point in thinking about it now.
Ultimately, the goal is to kill this ghost.
How can I kill the other person?
"I understand!"
The sudden loud shout caught Zenitsu's attention.
Zenitsu looked in Inosuke's direction with a puzzled expression.
Inosuke was standing on a rooftop in the distance, waving incessantly in their direction.
Seeing Zenitsu coming and going, Inosuke began to explain the method he had been racking his brains over.
"Just cut off her head, then stop fighting her body, take her head to Usui, and have Usui cut off his brother's head too! That way, neither of them will have their heads on their necks!"
Zenitsu suddenly stopped in his tracks, his gaze fixed on Daki.
"Is that so?"
Tengen Uzui had certainly considered this method as well.
But this tactic wasn't feasible for him.
Gyutaro can transform blood into blood blades and slash indiscriminately outwards.
After his head was severed, the power of the blood-stained blade made him afraid to even take it head-on.
Similarly, even if I cut off his limbs, he can still use the blood flowing from his limbs to create blood blades for attacks.
You might ask how I knew he could also have limbs.
That's because Tengen Uzui has already tried it.
Tengen Uzui even tried ignoring Gyutaro and going to Daki's side.
But it seemed as if they had sensed his thoughts.
Gyutaro turned and ran towards the distant residential area.
Helpless, Tengen Uzui had no choice but to turn back and fight Gyutaro again.
The battlefield was temporarily at a stalemate.
"Lord Tengen!"
Tengen Uzui quickly looked over.
Hinatsuru and Makio were standing on a rooftop not far away.
Tengen Uzui's eyes lit up; he knew without guessing that it was Kato who had rescued them.
However, he didn't have time to care about that now, and shouted:
"You let Tanjiro lure Daki here!"
"Tanjiro is injured, so we had Suma take him to get treatment!" Hinatsuru explained.
"So who is fighting Daki now?"
"Inoko and the others!"
"Then have them Daki over here!"
"Yes!"
Without asking why, their long-term interaction quickly convinced them of Tengen Uzui's assessment of the battlefield.
