Chapter 51 "Breathing Method" and Nada Spider Mountain (Please read~)

Uchiha Hikaru spent some time to find and seal the third fat ghost in the house.

Agatsuma Zenitsu, who witnessed this scene, finally believed what Tanjiro said about "senior", and his eyes looked at her with some subtle changes.

Next, Uchiha Hikaru returned to the car to find Bulma to report the test situation.

Tanjiro and his companions began to rescue the captured hostages, help bandage the wounded, and send them back to the nearby village.

Wait until everything is settled.

Inosuke Hashibira, who was wearing a wild boar headgear and had a not-so-smart brain, arrived late, and because he mistook Bulma's car for a monster, he had a small conflict with Uchiha Hikaru and his party.

Uchiha Hikaru easily subdued Inosuke, which gave these guys a little shock of Naruto Taijutsu, and then proposed to observe the "breathing method" they practiced.

…

The "breathing method" of the demon world originated from the "Breathing of the Sun" of Yoriichi Tsugakuni.

It is a breathing technique that demon hunters have been studying and improving for hundreds of years in order to fight demons with human bodies. It emphasizes adjusting one's own breathing through special methods, greatly strengthening the cardiopulmonary function, and greatly improving physical ability to the same level as demons.

After Yoriichi Tsugakuni's death, the "Breathing of the Sun" has been lost, leaving only the five breathing schools of water, fire, wind, thunder, and rock that were born on its basis, and their respective derived schools.

Tanjiro learned water, Zenitsu Agatsuma learned thunder, and Inosuke Hashibira learned the beast breathing that he created, which is closer to the wind among the five basic types.

"Water Breathing·Form 1·Water Surface Slash!"

"Form 2·Water Wheel!"

"...Form 10·Life Flow!"

In the clearing in the woods near the demon house.

Bulma and the shadow clones are laying out the tablecloth and preparing for a picnic.

As for the real body of Uchiha Hikari, she stood under a big tree with her arms folded, and three magatama appeared clearly in her eyes, watching Tanjiro not far away practicing the ten sword forms of Water Breathing one by one.

Until the last move "Life Flow" was used up, Tanjiro stopped to take a few breaths, turned around and said:

"Miss Hikari, these are all the sword skills I have learned in the past two years. I am not very good at using them now. If it is Master Urokodaki, he will definitely be better than me."

"Hmm..."

Uchiha Hikari nodded.

After a brief recollection, she drew the short sword from her back, took a few steps forward, and then swung the sword straight.

"Form 1, Water Surface Slash!"

"Form 2..."

"Form 10..."

In just a few minutes.

The ten sword forms of Water Breathing were completely reproduced in the hands of Uchiha Hikari. It cannot be said to be exactly the same, but it can only be said to be exactly the same. And because Uchiha Hikari's figure is more slender and agile, when she uses the sword form, she has a kind of elegant and agile texture, just like a fairy in the water.

When she fell from mid-air, she saw the water silk around her, soaking the ground, as if it was raining lightly.

"?!"

Tanjiro and others were already shocked.

"Miss Hikari. Is this really the first time you have seen "Water Breathing"? You can learn it after just one look?"

"I studied with Master Kuwashima for several years. How can someone be so talented? Even the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps can't do it!"

"... Heh, what genius, it's just a trick."

Compared to the surprise of Tanjiro and others, Uchiha Hikari was a little dissatisfied.

"I feel that the breathing frequency just now is still a little flawed. The fusion of "Water Breathing" and the sword form is not perfect... Is it because the object of the copy is Tanjiro?"

That's right.

Tanjiro had just passed the team assessment at this time. Although he made rapid progress, he was still far behind veterans like Urokodaki and Tomioka Giyuu. For example, he didn't even know the concept of "Changzhong" at this time. Uchiha Hikaru could only try to figure it out by himself, or wait a few days and copy it from the current Water Pillar Tomioka Giyuu after meeting him.

After thinking for a moment, Uchiha Hikaru raised his head and raised his chin: "It's your turn, Zenitsu. Look at your 'Thunder Breathing'."

"..."

Next, Uchiha Hikaru copied Zenitsu Agatsuma's Thunder Breathing and Inosuke's Beast Breathing respectively.

However, he only learned "One Form·Thunderbolt Flash" of Thunder Breathing.

Because Zenitsu Agatsuma only knew this move.

Uchiha Hikaru originally wanted to see Tanjiro's "Hinokami Kagura" - this thing is considered a youth version of "Sun Breathing", but Tanjiro has not yet awakened the ancestral memory engraved in his DNA. He barely jumped for a while, but stumbled visibly, so he had to give up.

"Okay."

"The remaining breathing methods will be copied after meeting the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps."

"I don't know if the ability of 'Eight Thousand Spears' can help Tanjiro recall the complete 'Hinokami Kagura'... Forget it, I'm not very proficient now, so I'll practice it repeatedly on those demons first, and then talk about it when I'm sure it's safe."

As a reward for copying the "breathing method", Uchiha Hikaru broke a Senzu bean into two halves and gave them to Zenitsu Agatsuma and Inosuke respectively.

"This thing is very precious. It can heal your injuries and restore your full strength in a very short time. It can even heal you to the extent of missing arms and legs... You can ask Tanjiro about the specific efficacy. You can keep it for use at critical moments."

"...Thank you."

After listening to Tanjiro's vivid description of the magical effects of the Senzu beans, the two of them solemnly put away their half of the Senzu beans.

On the other side, Bulma waved: "Everyone come over, it's time to eat."

"Okay!"

...

After resting for a day, Uchiha Hikaru and his party set off again.

Bulma stopped to take a few photos after passing several places with beautiful scenery along the way.

The camera, which is rarer than a car, naturally aroused the amazement of Tanjiro and the other two, so Bulma generously lent the camera to them and taught them how to use it. Agatsuma Zenitsu, who learned it first, pulled Tanjiro and Nezuko to start the selfie mode.

Only Inosuke was unwilling to join, saying that he felt that the machine would suck his soul away.

Well... this statement is very old-fashioned.

They traveled like a picnic all the way until the evening of the next day, when they arrived at the next mission location, which is the Nada Spider Mountain where the real Twelve Demon Moons and the Lower Five "Lei" are located.

What came into view was a majestic mountain range, covered with thick green vegetation from the foot of the mountain. Standing at the foot of the mountain and looking up, you can only see the mountain road within a few dozen meters, and the distance is covered by the shadow of the woods, which feels deep and strange.

At this point, it is definitely impossible to continue driving.

In addition, it was night, when the demons were most active, so Bulma directly put the RV into the universal capsule, handed the protective clothing and laser sword to Uchiha Hikaru, and then put on the mini bracelet herself, ready to transform at any time.
