Demon Slayer: From the Upper Ranks of Muzan

The old man was buried in a graveyard, and the old man was buried in a graveyard.

Half a month later

Wisteria House.

Tanjiro, Zenitsu and a pig-head have recovered at this time.

Just half a month ago, after Tanjiro left Tokyo, he met Zenitsu who was harassing girls on the roadside.

In order to maintain the face of the Demon Slayer Corps, Tanjiro decisively dragged Zenitsu away.

Later, at the residence of the former Lower Six Hibiki Kai, he met this pig-head named Inosuke Hasepira.

All three were injured and went to the Fuji House at the foot of the mountain to recuperate.

In fact, Zenitsu and Inosuke didn't have to be injured.

Zenitsu was possessed by the European Emperor, and killed an evil ghost while sleepwalking. He ran out of the mansion of Hibiki with his little brother.

Then it was Inosuke. After he came out, he saw the small box where Nezuko was hiding.

Inosuke, who felt the breath of the evil ghost, was ready to kill the ghost on the spot. Zenitsu refused to obey and was broken a rib by Inosuke.

After Tanjiro killed Hibiki, he came out and saw this scene, and he fought with Inosuke in a hurry.

Unexpectedly, he broke three ribs of Inosuke.

In the end, Inosuke was defeated by the head pillar.

Tanjiro was hit by Hibiki's blood demon art unexpectedly in the battle with Hibiki and broke two ribs.

In other words, two of the three little ones were injured because of internal fighting.

"Yoshi! Uncle Inosuke is healed!" Inosuke put on the hood and said loudly.

Tanjiro looked at Inosuke with an apologetic look on his face: "Come to think of it, I was the one who hurt Inosuke! I'm so sorry."

"Huh? Why are you apologizing?" Zenitsu was immediately angry: "It was obviously because I was hurt by him, he deserved it."

Then, Zenitsu's expression changed: "But this is for Nezuko-chan, I am willing. Now, Tanjiro, let Nezuko-chan come out!"

Tanjiro hurriedly said: "No, Zenitsu, Nezuko can't be exposed to the sun."

"Really? That's a pity." Zenitsu said disappointedly.

After the three of them were dressed, Tanjiro's crow Tennouji Matsuemon flew in from outside and landed in front of the three of them.

Zenitsu's sparrow is called Gokagi, and it can't speak, so it can't directly pass on instructions.

And Inosuke's crow, because it was afraid that Inosuke would eat it, it didn't dare to show up, but just hovered not far away.

"North North East! North North East! The three of us, go to North North East together. There are evil spirits in Nada Spider Mountain. A swordsman has already died. Be careful."

Tanjiro and Zenitsu looked at each other, and they both saw anxiety and tension in each other's eyes.

The difference is that Tanjiro can control it, but Zenitsu can't.

"Ah!!! I'm going to die! Why do you want me to carry out such a dangerous mission? I will definitely die." Zenitsu was scared and screamed again.

Tanjiro hurriedly advised: "Zenitsu, calm down."

"How can you be calm when it comes to life and death!" Zenitsu bit Tanjiro's head directly.

Zenitsu's teeth can actually collide with the head of the head pillar, worthy of being a tooth pillar.

......

At the same time, Nada Spider Mountain.

In the woods in the mountains, countless demon slayers were hung up by spider silk.

On the top of Spider Mountain, Shinya and Ryu were bathed in the moonlight.

"In the end, you let him come back here, right?" Shinya said to Liu behind him, with some anger in his tone.

Liu said: "As you can see, he refused to regain his memory. And Muzan paid too much attention to him, I can't use your blood to forcibly assimilate him. I can only send him back here and let the Demon Slayer Corps deal with him."

Shinya turned and looked at Liu: "These swordsmen at the foot of the mountain didn't need to die."

Liu had a blank expression and said lightly: "Now is the most critical moment. If we kill the Twelve Demon Moons, there will be a risk of being discovered. Let the Demon Slayer Corps attract Muzan's attention and buy you time to adapt to the new changes. This is the best solution I can think of.

You want to end everything in a short time from now on, so you must allow sacrifices within a certain range. It has nothing to do with good and evil, this is reality. You... No, we must eliminate all risks."

Shinya breathed a sigh of relief, which was considered to be an approval of Liu's statement.

Let the Demon Slayer Corps attract Muzan's attention and buy time for Shinya to adapt to the changes in blood.

Don’t think that Boss Xie trusts Zhenye now, that’s because Zhenye hasn’t been exposed, and what Boss Xie read in his mind shows that Zhenye is completely loyal to him.

If someone from the Paradise Cult takes action and Boss Xie sees it, everything will be

All have to start over.

Of all the ghosts in the Paradise Cult, only Shinya is sure to escape from Boss Xia.

This gap is difficult to make up. Boss Xia has been cannibalizing people without restraint for thousands of years. It can be said that he is completely indiscriminate.

Even after being seriously injured by Yoshiichi, his strength is not comparable to those ghosts who have lived for at most a hundred years.

The vitality accumulated by Boss Xia is enough to crush them.

Therefore, buying time for Shinya's evolution is the best way that Ryu can think of.

Because he knows that Shinya's ultimate goal is not only to defeat Yangguang, but also to seize all the power of Muzan.

In the past, whether it was Shinya or Ryu, the most fundamental reason for showing up to help the Demon Slayer Corps was their situation at the time. Even if they were discovered by Boss Xia, the worst thing would be to tear their faces and run away.

But now the situation is different. Both Shinya and the Demon Slayer Corps are brewing their most powerful strength ever.

The strength of the Demon Slayer Corps has ushered in the strongest generation since the first generation.

This farce must be ended in this generation, so we must be very cautious.

Shinye, apart from being a little bit unable to accept these teenagers sacrificing themselves for him at the beginning, now accepts Ryu's approach.

But...

"Ryu, you are my most trusted subordinate... no, I should say companion. You should know that I can't take your life, and I won't do so." Shinye said slowly: "I am different from Muzan. Although your power is given by me and controlled by me, the power of life and death does not belong to me, so no matter what you do, I will not kill you."

Ryu's pupils shrank, and he knelt down quickly, cold sweat oozing from his back.

This is the first time that Lord Shinye said such words to himself.

"I should have said that I like peace, not bloodshed and war." Shinye continued: "So unless it is absolutely necessary, I don't want to achieve my goal by means of sacrifice, especially sacrificing other people's lives. If there is such a thing in the future, I hope that I will issue such an order based on my judgment and when I think that sacrifice is necessary."

"Yes, Lord Shinye." Ryu's heartbeat accelerated sharply at this time, and his voice trembled.

Shinya's tone returned to normal: "Stand up, we are companions, there is no need to kneel down to me."
