Demon Slayer: Tanjuro Kamado returns from Sekiro

Chapter 53 - Love at first sight, Barney
Everyone in the courtyard held their breath and focused on the battle that took place in the middle.

One type · Shiranui.

In Breath of Flame, the speed of dashing is the fastest, and at the same time, slashing is also the fastest sword skill.

As for Purgatory Makijurou, he used this trick countless times to cleanly cut off the head of the ghost of the lower string.

Whoa-!
The moment Makijuro's wooden knife pierced the air and was about to touch Tanjuro's neck!
"hiss--!"

【Breath of the Sun · Four Shapes · Phantom Sunbow】

Swish!
The wooden knife passed cleanly across the neck of 'Tanjuro'.

But the feeling of empty wave from his hand made Makijuro's face full of surprise.

——It didn’t cut it.

——The knife... passed through the body? !

Purgatory Makijuro's movement stopped at the last moment of swinging the knife to retract his strength. He leaned forward, his eyes widened, staring at the phantom of 'Tanjuro' who seemed to be non-existent in front of him.

He reacted quickly, and the surprised expression on his face became surprised.

——It’s an afterimage!

next moment.

Before Purgatory Makijuro adjusted his posture.

【Breath of the Sun·Seven Shape·Yang Hua Tuo】

Swish!
pat.

Tanjuro's mouth overflowed with white steam, and he appeared behind Makijuro, with the wooden knife in his hand resting on his neck.

With a little force, the position of the blade of the wooden knife was against Makijuro's main artery:
"It's over." Tanjuro said calmly, thinking of ending the battle with the least effort.

Now he is almost full.

Purgatory Makijuro felt the cold touch from his neck in a daze, and he slightly clenched the handle of the knife.

——I didn’t react at all.

——One move and you lose.

Haha.

Makijuro smiled slightly in his heart.

"Yes." The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he slowly retracted his knife and stood up:

"…it's over."

With his back to Tanjuro, Purgatory Makijuro straightened his back slowly, he raised his head and looked at the clear blue sky.

Take a deep breath.

The boredom in my heart seemed to completely dissipate at this moment.

The wind blew through his red hair, shaking slightly, shining golden light in the sun.

"Hahaha…"

Purgatory Makijuro smiled slightly, then raised his head, his voice became louder and louder:
"Hahahaha!"

Tanjuro was putting away the wooden knife, when he heard Makijuro laughing heartily, he was slightly taken aback.

He looked at Makijuro.

The other party's sudden "nervousness" frightened him a little.

But, at a certain moment.

Tanjuro seems to have seen the shadow of Kyojurou from the current Makijurou...

No, it seems a little wrong to say that father is like a son.

In short.

Makijuro turned his head, and Tanjuro and Tanjurou looked at each other.

Tanjuro seemed to see a ray of hope in those tired eyes.

"Thank you." Purgatory Makijuro put away his knife and stood, he nodded to Tanjuro.

next to.

Several people are watching.

"Father!" Hanako held up her little hand, she was sitting in Butterfly Shinobi's arms, waving happily:

"Amazing! So handsome!"

Butterfly Shinobu looked a little surprised, and didn't even care that Hanako was shaking and rolling in her arms.

—Mr. Makijuro...lost.

What surprised her was not this, but.

——It was so easy to lose.

Butterfly Ninja, who is also a pillar, can clearly feel it.

Purgatory Makijuro's strength has not dropped much compared to before.

She had also heard the rumors that Tanjuro defeated Kamizuichi before, but she didn't care about it——

——Because even Tanjuro himself mentioned it to her, and there was an element of exaggeration in it.

Butterfly Ninja himself has a certain knowledge of the strength of Shangxian's ghost, at least with one pillar alone, it is completely impossible to defeat Shangxian.

However, now it seems——

Butterfly stared at Tanjuro.

Tanjuro was smiling, and waved to Hanako that Butterfly Shinobu was holding.

Soon, Butterfly's strong emotional control ability allowed Die Ren to restore her former smile.

"Father!" Purgatory Xingshoulang's voice came from the side of the courtyard, he was looking at his father with a smile:
"It seems that I haven't practiced swordsmanship for a while."

"Father's sword skills have actually regressed a bit!"

Makijuro, who was about to leave, glanced at his son in confusion:
"Stinky boy, what did you say?"

Xing Julang slightly circled his arms:
"Hahahaha!"

boom!
Xing Shoulang has a second bag on top of his head.

Opposite to several people.

"...Brother Tanjiro." Takeo squatted on the ground, he narrowed his eyes, recalling what he saw just now with a puzzled face:
"Did Father really make us pay attention to this...?"

He took a deep breath, then sighed like he was spitting out bitter water:

"I can't see it at all!"

In Takeo's eyes.

All he saw was that Makijuro and Tanjuro exchanged places with a swish.

Then, out of nowhere, the sparring ended.

Tanjiro didn't speak, he also looked astonished at the moment, as if he had been petrified, and looked at his father in a daze.

--a year ago.

——I can still see clearly, the two axes my father made...

Tanjiro fell into deep self-doubt.

"elder brother…?"

"elder brother?!!"

Seeing Tanjiro's shattered appearance, Takeo hastily shouted anxiously:

"Cheer up! Brother Tanjirou!!"

……

……

the other side.

In the woods.

rustle--

The leaves are swaying, and the girl with the three-strand braid is still shuttling through the woods.

"Cheer up! Mitsuri!"

Kanroji Mitsuri clenched her fist and waved it in front of her chest to cheer herself up. Her tone was dull:
"You can do it for sure!"

But when she looked around and saw the seemingly endless forest, she still broke down.

at this time.

step, step...

The sound of inaudible footsteps came from the front.

……

……

In front.

Iguro-chan was walking on the road.

"Hiss, hiss—" the little white snake wrapped around its neck spat out a bright red letter.

"I know, Kabamaru." Iguro-chan said in a low tone, as if he was communicating with the snake on his neck:
"Indeed, Yu Sui looks like a bad fart all day long."

Just when he wanted to move on along the woods.

"Hey!"

A flustered, pink-haired figure jumped out of the grass in front of him.

Standing in front, with her back to Yihei Xiaoba, she was stunned for a while, then said "Eh?" "Eh?", and quickly looked around.

"Strange... I heard someone talking here..." Ganluji Mitsuri murmured to herself in confusion, she scratched her face:
"Could it be that... I heard wrong?"

Iguro Hanai stopped behind Ganluji Mitsuri.

--Who?

Confused, he prepared to take a detour.

He has always been a loner, and he is not prepared to have too many conversations with others.

At this time.

"Ah! Found it!"

Kanroji Mitsuri suddenly turned around, and was pleasantly surprised to find Iguro Hanai who was about to leave, and she immediately ran towards this side happily:
"Hello--!"

In the sun shining through the leaves.

The girl was waving her hands, and with a bright smile on her face, she ran towards this side, her pink three-strand braid swaying slightly, and she yelled bluntly:

"Wait, please—!"

creak...

Yihei Xiaobanei froze in place when she turned around.
