Demon Slayer: I will play the ancestor of the Flame Pillar

The old man was very happy.

"Haha, there are so many people here."

Finally, he stopped laughing, and Douma, who was sent to the rescue, looked serious. He glanced at Lei.

"Hanangou and the guy who was there to make up the numbers are dead. It seems a bit difficult now, Lei."

"I'm sorry, it's my fault. I will take the responsibility after this. Please rest assured, Douma."

He bowed slightly to Douma who saved him, and his face was also very bad.

Not only did he not take revenge on this trip, but all the newly formed families died, and it indirectly led to the collapse of two upper strings.

One of them even died at the speed of light in front of him...

Especially that idiot, Lei hated him so much when he mentioned him.

The dignified upper rank actually hid so insidiously that even his superior didn't know about it.

It would have been fine if he didn't join them earlier, but he jumped out halfway to pick up peaches and didn't even know that he was being rushed by someone who wasn't even a pillar.

Unworthy of being an upper rank, unworthy of being an upper rank.

Fortunately, Douma-sama arrived in time.

With his arrival, there was Black Sky.

Unlike the optimistic Rui, Douma frowned slightly, sensing a subtle sense of disobedience.

"Let's solve the current trouble first, what's going on with those people over there?"

"I don't know, they arrived almost at the same time as you."

Rui shook his head and looked across.

The three pillars standing in front of them were Uzui Tengen, Tokitou Muichiro, and Kanroji Mitsuri.

And following closely behind Douma were the wind pillar Fushigawa Shima and the water pillar Tomioka Giyu.

In other words, five pillars will be fighting against two upper rank here in a while.

However, this is not the key point. Douma doesn't care how many humans there are.

Unlike Kokushibo and Akaza, who are purely powerful in combat, Douma is actually an outlier among demons.

Because he is a rare type of turret mage, it is normal that the noble family and those vulgar warriors don't get along.

After integrating the kagune, Douma can even change the weather in a small range and create a deadly snow out of thin air.

Especially for the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps who use breathing methods to fight, fighting with Douma can be said to be wrong even for breathing.

However, now he has encountered the most significant Waterloo in his demon life.

Unlike the pillars who restrain the frequency of breathing methods to prevent the intake of kagune from damaging the alveoli.

Douma can make a clear judgment.

The eight figures who suddenly appeared on the opposite side and remained silent all the time -

Definitely not breathing!

Douma showed a probing look.

"Interesting, could it be that the dead are moving?"

Without a response, the eight unfocused pupils stared at Douma.

"Grandpa!?"

Zenitsu, who fell to the ground, exclaimed.

The short old man did not answer, but carried Zenitsu, who was injured in the leg, and ran into the dense forest.

"Hey--! Where are you taking me, Grandpa?"

"Keep your voice down, Zenitsu, don't let him find out."

Yozento Jinsai, who was leaning against a tree in the forest, whispered.

The more corpses Hachifusa controlled, the greater the burden on the user, and now he can't move.

"You did a good job, Zenitsu, and Lord Jigoro has always been proud of you. He once asked me to take good care of you."

"So leave it to us next." Giyuu, who simply treated Zenitsu's wounds, added.

Leaving Inosuke in the woods to take care of the two.

The wounded Giyuu Tomioka and Fushigawa Miya walked out of the woods one after the other.

The remains of the eight predecessors were not afraid of the ice and snow, and were stuck in front of the two demons.

The figures of the five pillars were slightly behind, avoiding the deadly wind and snow, and blocking the escape direction of Douma and Rui with the force of sandwiching from both sides.

This is destined to be a righteous gang fight!

Facing an evil demon like Douma, there is no need to worry about morality, just fight together.

Fuzugawa Shiya, carrying a knife, showed a ferocious smile.

"Finally I have waited for this day, white-haired bastard, I must get back the blood debt you owe one by one."

"Thirteen to two, kill you gorgeously."

"Be careful, counterattack begins."

With Tomioka Giyu's order.

The mysteries of the major breathing methods burst out at the same time, and thirteen colorful slashes swept from all directions.

Needless to say, the surging firepower instantly covered the two demons in the center.

"Something is wrong, what happened to these corpses!?"

The shadow of death instantly enveloped the two upper strings.

At the critical moment of life and death, Douma risked his life to activate the blood demon technique.

Quickly frozen ice lotuses bloomed from his feet, intercepting the slashes in mid-air.

Various giant Bodhisattvas and Vajra goddesses gathered in an instant, trying desperately to stop the people approaching.

"Breath of Love, Secret, Cat Foot Love Wind!"

"Breath of Thunder, Secret, Lightning Thunder Boom!"

"Breath of Rock, Secret, Walun Gyobu!"

"Breath of Sound, Secret, Strings Overlap!"

Four large-scale secrets instantly tore the ice giant apart. Douma roared and erected tall ice pillars around him in an instant.

"Purgatory!"

The next moment, the red flame dragon shattered the ice wall and slashed at the neck under Lei's horrified expression.

"Lord Douma, save me!"

The quick freezing air spit out from Bai Ji's mouth, instantly freezing the body of the Flame Pillar into an ice sculpture.

Without even a moment of feeling happy about killing the enemy, Douma dragged Lei into the air without stopping.

The next moment, the endless torrent destroyed the ice lotus under his feet.

Before Lei could catch his breath, a fierce figure appeared in front of him.

"Breath of the Wind, Secret, Wei Tuo Tiantai Wind."

The sharp wind blade rolled over, and the eight spider spears behind Lei popped out instantly, and the blood-red thin lines spread out without money.

"I won't die here!"

Bang, bang, bang--

At the cost of the eight spider spears shattering, Lei's blood spilled into the sky and barely escaped.

Douma's eyes lit up, and he caught the falling Lei and whistled.

"Hey, isn't this quite capable?"

At this time, Lei was still in shock.

"What should we do, Douma-sama, what should we do now?"

Douma touched Lei's head with his only remaining left hand. His right hand had just been cut off by Muichiro with "Oboro".

"There is no other way. We can't win with so many people. We can only find Lord Kokushibo quickly."

"But can we really hold on until then?"

Looking at Douma who sacrificed himself to save him, Rui was moved and a little self-blaming at the same time.

"If it weren't for saving me, Lord Douma would definitely not be injured. It's all because I'm too useless as an upper string."

"Don't say that. I can't escape alone. Your role is extremely important."

Douma rubbed Rui's hair vigorously with a sincere and bright smile.

Feeling this genuine care and affirmation, Rui looked up in shock, with tears in the corners of his eyes.

It's hard to imagine that there are such heroes among the ghosts.

It turns out that everyone has blamed Lord Douma!

Although his family members just died, Rui can now loudly announce that his bond is alive again!

"Lord Douma, you..."

"Shh~ No need to say more, I understand."

Holding the back of Rui's neck, a strange light flashed in Douma's eyes.

"Lei, do you want to know how you were promoted to Upper Rank?"
