Demon Slayer: Tanjuro Kamado returns from Sekiro

Chapter 22 - The Lord's Mansion

"—Help me and get rid of Wu Mi."

The deep words echoed in the memory.

Zhu Shi stood at the end of the street, staring at the back of Zaomon Tanjuro in the distance, dazed.

The handsome young man with green and white hair stood beside Zhu Shi. Although he tried to maintain a serious expression, the corners of his mouth still couldn't help but curl up slightly.

The young man seemed to have noticed the direction Zhu Shi had been looking at, and followed Zhu Shi's gaze towards the other side.

Yoshiyuki Tomioka, Tanjuro, and Murata who was bowing to the two of them appeared in sight.

--Um?

The boy's lavender eyes, which were exactly the same as Zhu Shi's, narrowed slightly, and a little doubt appeared on his face.

—Swordsman?There is the word "kill" on the back... from the Ghost Killing Team?

Before he had time to take a closer look, Zhu Shi who was beside him slightly pursed his lips, turned sideways, and took a small step towards leaving the street.

"Let's go, Yushiro."

Zhu Shi's gentle voice sounded, she turned around and walked slowly along the street:

"The blood needed today has been collected enough."

The young man named Yushiro looked away when he heard the words, and hurriedly followed. He trotted a few steps:
"Yes."

……

the other side of the street.

It seems to have noticed something.

Tomioka Yoshiyuki raised his head, and his dark blue eyes scanned the surrounding area.

After finding nothing, he slowly withdrew his gaze.

—Is it an illusion?

……

……

The next day.

day.

It seems that because of the haze last night, the weather during the day is particularly clear, and the clear blue sky can be seen at a glance.

"Karma!!" Two pitch-black crows fluttered high in the sky, looking down at the ground.

On the undulating mountains, not far away, there is a large group of wisteria flowers, shimmering in the sun.

In the middle of the wisteria clusters is a stately and spacious Japanese-style mansion.

Step, step, step.

The three of them walked on the path between the mountains.

Zamon Tanjuro squinted his eyes slightly, and he used the breathing method to drive away the drowsiness.

Although he looked sallow and thin, with shriveled muscles, weak and weak, he seemed to be prone to sudden death at any time.

But just last night, Tanjuro discovered something.

After the evil spirit was beheaded by Tomioka Yoshiyuki, he picked up the wedge ball himself.

It seemed that he was the only one who saw the red-pink "resurrection" power rising from the ghost's ashes.

And slipped directly into his body.

In the body, the "resurrection" power that can be sensed has recovered about a quarter.

If it was in the past, it would have been two full nights, plus non-stop running.

He was already dead.

And now.

Kamado Tanjuro walked steadily on the road step by step.

It is the power of "resurrection".

This is essentially the source of vitality, supporting and filling his weak body.

If he fights now, he is also confident that he can cut an extra hundred yuan when he blew himself up without misery.

However, about a quarter of the "resurrection" energy is also being consumed at an imperceptible speed.

Now it's just walking, if you fight, maybe it will wear off faster.

New discoveries are worth recording.

Kamado Tanjuro kept his silence, moving on the road like a walking plant.

aside.

really.

The characters of the pillars are very strange.

Also terrible!
Murata walked between the two of them. He carefully observed the two of them, then raised his head helplessly and looked towards the sky.

"…Ugh."

Murata touched his forehead, where there was a wound corroded by the ghost's saliva yesterday, and he carefully touched it with his fingers.

pat.

He immediately bared his teeth in pain and cried out:

"It hurts!"

Murata withdrew his hand, lowered his head, looked at the dead flesh stuck to his fingers, and said hesitantly to the two people beside him:

"that…"

He raised his eyes and glanced left and right at the two people who were walking between him.

Then he looked at Giyuu Tomioka, whom he was more familiar with:
"Yi... Tomioka-sama."

"I just have this little injury, is it really necessary to go to the Butterfly House..."

"Probably, it will heal on its own in two days." As he spoke, Murata looked tentatively at Yoshiyuki Tomioka.

Tomioka Yoshiyuki stared straight ahead, he shook his head slightly:

"it's not true."

"This time, all the three C-level members except you died in the line of duty. That one ghost alone can't do it."

His tone was unwavering, and his dark blue eyes did not change in any way:

"I'm afraid that there are more powerful ghosts in that place, most likely the Twelve Ghost Moons."

"Going to the Butterfly House is just on the way. The matter about the ghost must be reported to the lord first. It may be more convenient to bring you."

what.

Hearing this, Murata, who was following Yoshiyuki Tomioka, suddenly felt his body stiffen, as if petrified.

His thoughts froze abruptly.

It turned out to be the case.

In fact, it was me who was being passionate.

Even though the seniors have all sacrificed, I am actually thinking about this kind of thing...!
Murata!Shame on you!

Quick reflection!
Murata suddenly felt his scalp tingle, his face slowly flushed, and he was ashamed that he hadn't been able to watch the sacrifice of his teammates at this level.

With his head down, he followed behind the two of them, walking without saying a word.

Last night's endgame has been taken over by the hidden troops, and in the process of searching for the victims, the remaining limbs of the remaining soldiers were found.

The C-level members are already the backbone of the Ghost Killing Team in the future, and they have the hope of being promoted to the pillars. The sudden death of three members is enough to attract attention.

Thinking of this, Tomioka Yoshiyuki suddenly remembered the strange breathing method of Kamado Tanjuro last night.

He thinks that Tanjuro, who can possess the strength close to the column, probably knows how to breathe, so he is not surprised that Tanjuro knows how to breathe.

However, he had never seen such a breathing method.

Especially the sword skill of stabbing forward.

The moment Tanjuro made his move, Yoshiyuki Tomioka even sensed something in the breath of Kamado Tanjuro

——Ingredients of water breathing.

That move combined with the rhythm of breathing made Yoshiyuki Tomioka instantly think of 【Breathe of Water·Seven Style·Shizuku Ripple Sting】

However, there seems to be a big difference in essence.

Just like apples and tomatoes, although they are both red, they both have green stalks and can be eaten.

But it is not a species after all.

Is it your own breathing method?

Thinking about it, Yoshiyuki Tomioka looked across Murata and looked at Tanjuro Kamado, with a flat tone:

"Stove door."

Kamado Tanjuro didn't reply, he just slowly turned his head and glanced at Yoshiyuki Tomioka.

The latter understood that this meant for him to continue talking.

But the thousands of words that were in my mind just now suddenly turned into:

"Where did your breathing method come from?"

Hearing this, Kamado Tanjuro looked at him from a calm expression to gradually becoming a little puzzled.

He thought for a moment, and seemed to figure out Tomioka Yoshiyuki's original intention.

Just when Tanjuro was once again surprised by Tomioka Yoshiyuki's poor expression.

"Karma!!" The crow's voice came from the sky above:
"The lord's mansion is here! Karma!!"
