Chapter 44
Time passes so quickly.
The entire Nada Spider Mountain was completely swept away by the Demon Slayer Team, and all the ghosts who came this time were killed here.
The Demon Slayer Squad then evacuated the wounded en masse and returned to the headquarters.
It wasn't until dawn rose that everyone returned to the Demon Slayer Headquarters, and Tanjiro was still unconscious at this moment.
Unfortunately, the meeting can only be put on hold temporarily.
Wait until early morning.
The comatose Tanjiro slowly opened his eyes and looked around in confusion, only to see that he was lying in a secluded room.
There were two people wearing black uniforms whose faces could not be seen clearly. They saw Tanjiro wake up and said excitedly.
"You finally woke up, I'm going to report it now!"One of them immediately opened the door and ran out.
Tanjiro looked around with some confusion and asked
"This is where?"
His memory still stayed at the moment when he fainted. He only remembered that he saw Arjuramaru and entrusted his body to it. He is still alive now, which means that those evil ghosts have been killed.
When the remaining Yin members heard this, they hurriedly explained.
"This is the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps. You have been unconscious all night. There are obviously no injuries on your body. I really don’t understand why you were unconscious for so long."
Hearing this, Tanjiro suddenly came back to his senses and hurriedly asked with concern in his heart.
"Arjuramaru, what happened last night? And what happened to Midouzi and Zenitsu?"
Faced with the inquiry, Lin Fan, who was in the sword, also responded,"Your sister Mi Douzi was taken away by the Demon Slayers. Zenitsu and Inosuke are also fine."
After hearing that nothing happened, Tanjiro breathed a sigh of relief and said his thanks again solemnly.
"This time, I really have to thank you for being here. Otherwise, I really don’t know what to do. Thank you for being by my side, Ajuro Maru"
"As long as you know."
Lin Fan replied and stopped talking to him.
Instead, he started to prepare to trick these guys into working for him when the Demon Slayer Squad met later.
He had been looking forward to this day for who knows how long.
Now. It’s finally here!
You know what I’ve been doing these past two years?……
……
And the outside world.
After learning that Tanjiro had woken up, Ubuyashiki Yōya immediately issued an order to start the Hashira meeting.
Tanjiro was also taken to a large courtyard.
This courtyard has beautiful scenery. After crossing the path and arriving at the open space in front of the mansion, I saw nine figures gathering here.
It is the Nine Pillars of the Demon Slayer Squad.
And they have been waiting here for a long time, waiting for an answer, and the box containing Midouzi is not far away.
Before Tanjiro could feel relieved.
When the wind pillar was not dead, Shiya Kawa stared at him fiercely and threatened with a ferocious expression,"If the lord can't convince me, I will kill your sister without mercy!"
Among the crowd not far away, there was a person with a cherry pink color. The long-haired Koizhu Kanroji Mitsuri blushed pretty and murmured in her heart.
"Hey, do you want to kill that ghost?"
Tanjiro was still a little confused about who these people were.
Fortunately, Lin Fan reminded him.
"These nine guys are the nine with the highest status and strength among the Demon Slayer Squad, and are named Pillars."
That's it.
Tanjiro didn't have time to think about it and hurriedly explained,"My sister Yadouzi has never eaten a human being and will never eat a human being in the future.……"
But the words have not yet fallen.
On a tree not far away, a black-haired boy was lying on his side with a bandage binding the lower half of his face. It was none other than Snake Pillar Iguro Kobanai. He pointed at Tanjiro indifferently and questioned.
"After all, it is natural to protect your family. What you said is simply unbelievable. Why not talk about your weird knife first?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present became interested, and they all obviously knew how special Ajuramaru was.
But Tanjiro fell into silence for a short time.
"No, my sister turned into a ghost two years ago, and she never ate anyone.……"
The tall and obviously taller Yanzhu and Xingming, wearing monk robes, clasped their hands together and held the Buddhist beads, with two lines of tears flowing from their blind eyes.
"It's so pitiful. Let's kill this poor child quickly and give it some relief.……"
Lin Fan, who was in the sword, could tell that none of these guys were normal.
Tanjiro, on the other hand, still wanted to defend himself.
But the next moment.
In the empty entrance hall of the mansion, two white-haired girls spoke at the same time.
"Your lord has arrived."
This also successfully attracted the attention of everyone present, and they all turned their attention.
I saw the portal behind the entrance opened to both sides, and a figure walked out of it. He was wearing a white kimono and stepped forward.
He stretched out his hand and The two girls beside him helped him down to the corridor outside the entrance, and then he could see Tanjiro's true appearance.
Under his black hair, he could see the faint scar on the upper half of his face. He raised his head and felt the warmth of the sun, then spoke softly.
"Good morning everyone."
Tanjiro looked at the ferocious scar and couldn't help but think wildly.
Injured?
Or sick?
Arjuna Maru should be able to cure it...
At the moment of thinking, he suddenly noticed someone approaching behind him, and he hurriedly made a decision. The dodge action, but in the end, he was a step too slow, and he was directly pushed to the ground by Immortal Kawa Saneya, who couldn't control his body and fell to his knees.
But this succeeded in shocking everyone present. Sensing Fengzhu's surprise attack,
Immortal Sekawa Saneya was also surprised, then nodded slightly and said respectfully,"My lord, Ankang, I would like to ask you to explain the value of this soldier named Kamado Tanjiro.
I cannot accept that he is more important than you!"
Ubuya Shiki Yaoya had already expected this. He looked forward without changing his expression and said kindly and calmly,"Then let me clear up your doubts here."
The words fell.
The girl on the left took out an envelope from her arms, opened it and recited,"This is the letter sent by Hara Suzhu, Ninataki Sakonji-sama, and I will recite the contents."
Zhongzhu and Tanjiro listened intently, for fear of missing any word.
They only listened to the girl's calm and clear recitation.
"Please also let Tanjiro and Midouzi be together. Midouzi has undergone some unexpected changes. Even if he is hungry, he will not eat people, although it is unbelievable.
But if something unexpected happens, I will commit seppuku along with Tomioka Giyu and Kamado Tanjiro.
Next, please treat it with caution, my lord. The sword passed down from generation to generation in Kamado Tanjiro's hand contains a legendary god, a sword spirit named Arjuramaru!
It is like a fairy tale, possessing many incredible powers. I think it has the ability to change the pattern of humans and ghosts and end everything!"
