Thinking of this, Zenitsu used his elbows to push himself up.
Intense pain shot through his body, and Zenitsu gritted his teeth, trying to prop himself up.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he could only lift his head a little bit; that was all he could manage.
After several attempts, Zenitsu could no longer muster any strength and could only lie down helplessly.
Gazing at the crescent moon in the sky, the sound of my own panting echoed in my ears.
Zenitsu thought pessimistically, "I finally managed to change something, but it hasn't been of any use."
With a soft 'thud', a figure landed beside Zenitsu.
It was Makio who had come from the Daki.
Because Tengen Uzui and the others were constantly changing positions during the battle.
So when she came, she didn't take the same route as when Zenitsu came, so naturally she didn't see Zenitsu.
It wasn't until she confirmed the situation with Tengen Uzui, Tengen Uzui told her to look for Zenitsu on the sidelines, that she realized Zenitsu, who should have been on the battlefield, was missing.
Fortunately, the battle positions of Tengen Uzui and his group didn't change much, and they found them after a short search.
Makio quickly walked to Zenitsu's side, and seeing the huge scarlet thing on his abdomen, he couldn't help but raise his hand to cover his mouth.
She quickly realized that this was not the time to be surprised; she needed to treat him as soon as possible.
Makio squatted down and waved his hand in front of Zenitsu's eyes.
How are you? Can you still hold on?
The waving hand in front of him made Zenitsu's dilated pupils refocus, and his gaze shifted to Makio's face.
"I... cough cough..."
Zenitsu coughed violently as soon as he opened his mouth.
Makio raised her hand and gently patted Zenitsu's chest, "It's alright, take your time! Take your time!"
After catching his breath, Zenitsu spoke again, "I'm fine, I can manage. Go Inosuke and the others!"
Seeing that Zenitsu still had the energy to speak, Makio finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew the physical condition of Demon Slayer well; as long as he had the strength to speak, maintained the wound, and prevented it from worsening, then surviving would definitely not be a problem.
Ignoring what Zenitsu was saying, she quickly began to treat Zenitsu's injuries.
Having just treated Inosuke's injury, she naturally knew what to do and skillfully bandaged it.
Seeing this, Zenitsu opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Soon, his injuries were treated, Makio stood up again.
"I still have tasks to do, so you can rest here for now!" Makio instructed.
Zenitsu nodded laboriously, without replying.
Makio took one last deep look at Zenitsu, then quickly jumped towards Inosuke and the others.
Clang!
The Nichirin Blade struck the soft silk ribbon with a sharp, metallic clang.
Looking at the ribbon he had bent but couldn't cut, Inosuke gritted his teeth.
"Damn it! These earthworm-like things are so annoying!"
" Inoko, don't fight her head-on, let's just fight her at a distance!" Hinatsuru shouted from behind.
"I want to too! But this earthworm-like thing is so fast, I can't just dodge it!" Inosuke replied while doing a backflip.
As he landed, his foot stepped on the ribbon beneath him, and he leaped to the side, dodging the next ribbon that came flying at him.
The ribbon retracted, Daki stood still, staring coldly at Inosuke.
"Hey! Can you stop hiding like a mouse?!"
"Huh? Can you stop swinging these things around like an octopus?" Inosuke retorted.
Upon hearing this, Daki's expression grew even colder, and the silk sash behind her waist began to sway once more.
Whoosh--!
The ribbon shot out like a sharp arrow, but this time its target was no longer Inosuke.
"Watch out!" Inosuke shouted.
Seeing the ribbon turn towards her, the Hinatsuru's gaze narrowed slightly, but there was no sign of fear.
The moment she stayed, she was already prepared to face these challenges.
However, it's still faster than I expected!
After a silent sigh, the Hinatsuru quickly retreated.
Thanks to her clear understanding of her own abilities, she kept a relatively long distance during the initial battle.
Therefore, even though the ribbon is moving much faster than she expected, she still has time to react.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!...
The ribbons kept falling onto the roof, each time accompanied by a loud thud.
After one round of attacks, the banging stopped briefly.
The Hinatsuru turned its head to check the situation, then quickly turned and ran off again.
Behind her, Daki was leaping rapidly toward her.
"Damn it!" Inosuke cursed angrily, pushed off with his foot, and quickly chased after that direction.
The distance between the three of them quickly closed.
Finally, the distance between the two was closed to a point where Daki believed she could definitely hit him.
The ribbon behind it curved slightly before flying away again.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh--!
A loud whooshing sound rang out.
The sound was much louder than in the previous attacks.
Hinatsuru quickly turned around and began to deal with the situation.
She knew very well that she couldn't possibly outrun the ribbon.
The Hinatsuru stared intently at the incoming ribbon.
Judging the direction from which each ribbon falls, how can one avoid all of them?
Bang! Bang! Bang!...
One ribbon after another fell down.
Despite the difficulties, the Hinatsuru managed to evade them all.
Just as the Hinatsuru breathed a sigh of relief...
Whoosh!
The sound of wind breaking rang out again.
A ribbon shot over, taking advantage of the gap in the rubble that the ribbon had lifted, which obscured the view.
The ribbon grew larger and larger in the Hinatsuru 'Hinatsuru eyes until finally it could only be seen as a line.
laugh--!
The ribbon passed through the Hinatsuru's abdomen.
The rubble blocked Hinatsuru's view, and it also blocked Daki's view.
Her attack failed to pierce the Hinatsuru's head as she had hoped.
Sensing the touch from the ribbon, Daki into a slight smile as she manipulated the ribbon to lift it upwards.
However, the next moment, Inosuke arrived.
" Beast Breathing - Second Fang - Slice!"
Whoosh--!
A flash of light, and the ribbon was severed.
Even without bending to dissipate the force, Inosuke can still cut the ribbon.
Inosuke caught Hinatsuru and was pondering how to get there when a voice rang out.
" Inosuke, run this way!" Makio stood still and waved his hands.
Without much thought, Inosuke picked up Hinatsuru and quickly ran towards that direction.
Daki stood still, silently gazing in the direction the others had fled.
"That direction is..."
