Anime: Fight Sukuna at the beginning?

In the temporary butterfly house.

This "pillar" who is proficient in poison, medicine and treatment of the wounded silently brought Fang Yi to his subordinate organization, served Fang Yi a pot of tea, and then started to talk about business.

"Sorry, I may not be able to fulfill my promise to exchange pharmaceutical skills with you."

Fang Yi then remembered that this insect pillar with purple pupils and butterfly wing pattern feathers had made a verbal promise to him before.

After Fang Yi's trip to Asakusa is over, he can go to her to exchange knowledge related to pharmaceuticals.

Fang Yi's previous level 9 [Drug Production and Identification] was originally intended to lay a solid foundation from this person, but now the plot seems to have disrupted all this.

Kohiko Shinobu continued to add a little embarrassedly.

"I am very ashamed, I am going to break my promise."

"Due to some personal reasons, I may not be able to spare time to communicate with you in the next period of time."

"I will ask my "stepson" Hanaru Kanao to exchange knowledge about pharmaceuticals with you."

Fang Yi took a sip of tea and prepared to start fishing.

"Don't feel sorry, Miss Kocho."

"I will be very busy for a while. Even if Miss Kocho wants to teach me some knowledge, I'm afraid I don't have the time."

"Therefore, don't feel guilty for not fulfilling that verbal promise. We will have plenty of time to communicate in the future."

Hearing Fang Yi's words, the light in Kocho's eyes dimmed slightly, and hesitation, pain, and resentment flashed across her delicate and beautiful face, and finally returned to calm.

She opened her mouth, hesitated again and again, and still told her plan and began to say her "last words."

"No, maybe we won't have the chance to communicate again."

"I"

"Mr. Ubuyashiki has a premonition that the decisive battle is not far away, and I should also be ready to die."

"To kill an upper-rank demon."

Fang Yi naturally knew that the insect pillar Kocho Shinobu was going to seek revenge on Douma, the enemy who killed his sister.

At the same time, this upper-rank two likes to eat women very much. Kocho Shinobu wants to sacrifice herself and use the hundreds of times of wisteria flower toxin accumulated in her body to create an opportunity to kill this upper-rank two.

For this reason, the Insect Pillar insisted on taking wisteria flowers in the year before the decisive battle, turning himself into a poisonous person.

Fang Yi didn't like this kind of story.

——

Fang Yi was puzzled and asked the Insect Pillar a question.

"I want to know what the rank of this upper-rank demon is?"

"Why sacrifice such a beautiful and important lady, Shinobu Kocho, to kill it?"

Mentioning Douma, Shinobu Kocho tried to control her expression, calmed herself down, and began to explain the characteristics of her enemy.

"It is the second upper string, and has an unprecedented obsession with eating women, especially high-quality women in its eyes."

"And as the 'pillar' of the Demon Slayer Corps, it will definitely eat me."

"I have been taking wisteria poison for a long time, and my body and internal organs are flowing with wisteria poison far exceeding the lethal dose."

"But it is far from enough. Mr. Ubuyashiki gave me a new poison, and I will try to send it into my body."

"This way of killing the opponent must have the highest chance of success."

"I"

Fang Yi interrupted Kocho Shinobu's speech, looking seriously at her purple pupils and her delicate face that became a little hideous because of pretending to be calm.

"It is indeed a good strategy, but I want to modify it slightly."

"I want to change the price of killing this second upper string"

"The previous price was Miss Kocho Shinobu's life, right?"

When Kocho Shinobu heard Fang Yi's speech, she nodded silently and looked at Fang Yi to know what the other party meant by the 'slightly modified strategy'.

Fang Yi said word by word.

"I hope to change the price of killing the Upper String Two to an item."

Obviously, Kocho Shinobu's face flashed with confusion. It was obvious that the insect pillar did not agree with Fang Yi's strategy.

Fang Yi continued to speak.

"I didn't like the previous price, so I came to kill this Upper String Two."

"The price is a light green haori."

"As long as you give me such a haori, I can take off the head of the Upper String Two."

Kocho Shinobu wanted to continue to explain her point of view.

"But we don't know the whereabouts of this ghost, so we can only wait for the other party to attack."

"And I am the best bait, just let it swallow it."

But Kocho Shinobu's words were interrupted by Fang Yi's next words.

Fang Yi began to make up some plots based on the information that only he knew and released it.

——

He raised the letter that Chen Cheng dropped before and began to persuade Kocho Shinobu.

"I got some information about this demon from the corpse of the enemy in Asakusa."

"The name of this Upper String 2 is Douma, the leader of the Wanshigakura Sect."

"I originally planned to kill this demon in advance, but I haven't told Mr. Ubuyashiki Yoya yet."

Fang Yi looked at the somewhat bewildered Kocho Shinobu and made his own promise.

"I will kill it for this light green haori that I haven't got yet."

"This haori will symbolize the oath, you can call it [the haori of the oath]."

Fang Yi added as if he remembered something.

"I had a near-death experience, and someone whispered something in my ear."

"Today, I will also give this sentence to Miss Kocho Shinobu."

"Live."

Fang Yi stood up, patted Kocho Shinobu's shoulder, and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, the Insect Pillar used her not-so-strong wrist strength to hold Fang Yi, and her eyes began to be filled with mist.

"Mr. Fang Yi, I don't want you to take such a huge risk to fight an Upper Rank 2 for a meaningless person like me."

"Right now, there are still Liao Lin, even Upper Rank 1, and people like Muzan Kibutsuji who need you to fight. It's time to maintain your combat power."

"The only contribution I can make is to let Upper Rank 2 eat and exchange the opponent."

"There is obviously a way to win with a higher chance of success, and the price is just my insignificant me."

The Insect Pillar said, a little emotional, tears streaming down his cheeks.

"You are going to fight an enemy much stronger than me. Keeping even a little bit better can help you survive."

"That magical energy that heals physical injuries is not infinite."

"Your enemy is Liao Lin, who killed two 'pillars' with one sword, one of the legendary upper strings, and even Muzan Kibutsuji."

Shinobu Kocho pointed to her chest and said.

"And I can only let the upper string eat me, and drag it to hell together, which is the greatest contribution."

"Besides, surviving is meaningless to me."

Fang Yi stopped and looked at Shinobu Kocho, who was in tears.

He took out a tissue to wipe away the tears that slid down her cheeks and said softly.

"I will complete the mission and protect my companions. Killing the Upper Rank Two is not beyond my ability."

"Also, Miss Kocho Shinobu, living is meaningless. The meaning is given by people themselves."

"I hope you have enough time to find it, or just to fulfill your promise to teach me the skills of making medicine."

Fang Yi said with a standard and charming smile on his lips.

"So, live for me, and I will pay the price."
