Demon Slayer: Tanjuro Kamado returns from Sekiro

Chapter 92 – Guiding Pillars and Final Selection
Butterfly House.

After some discussions.

Tanjuro agrees to guide the Pillars in training about penetrating the world.

It is already noon the next day.

Since the pillars are assigned to various places in Neon, and each person is in charge of an area, it will take some time to rush to the headquarters suddenly.

in the courtyard.

Cigoro and Rinaki were sitting in the corridor.

"Ah." Ci Wulang was hanging his head, sighing.

Rinaki, who was watching the smiling children training in the courtyard, heard the sigh of his old friend beside him, and turned his head sideways.

"What's the matter?" Lin Taki asked softly, since the two retired, they haven't seen each other for a long time except for correspondence.

It's been a long time since we last saw each other, and both sides are already gray-haired.

Ci Wulang shook his head, his face was full of sorrow, as if he didn't know what to say:

"That child, Yan Yue... ah, he is my apprentice."

"I don't know what stimulated me to suddenly want to participate in this final selection."

As he spoke, he patted his thigh vigorously:

"Obviously he hasn't mastered the Yi type, although the strength may be enough...but to participate in the final selection..."

"He should be next year's batch of swordsmen..."

As a trainer, Kuwashima Jigoro can prevent Yan Yue from participating in the final selection.

But he was also thinking in his heart—whether his apprentice could really go up.

Even if he failed to pass, based on what he knew about Yue Yue's temperament - he would probably go down the mountain first.

Maybe, I can also rub the spirit of my great apprentice.

Seeing the sad look of an old friend.

Rinaki Zuo lowered his head for the next time, and was silent for a while.

Then, he raised his head again, thinking:

"Ciwulang, I still have a few disaster relief masks that I carved before..."

behind the two.

Tanjuro, who was passing by, staggered suddenly when he heard Ryodaki Sakinji's words.

……

Butterfly house door.

Kengyake, who was about to leave for Mount Fujishi, stood here.

"Master... what is this?"

He took a white fox mask from Ci Wulang suspiciously, and looked at it twice from left to right.

dong dong!

Kuwashima Cigoro didn't speak, he just knocked on the ground with his cane, and looked at Baoyue with a serious face:

"Inaoyu Yuyue!"

"listen!"

"The final selection is no joke! There are only a handful of people who can survive each year!"

"Didn't run away, and those who officially passed it are very few!"

His old eyelids drooped, and his eyes were full of worry when he looked at Yan Yue.

He has two apprentices, Yue Yue and Shan Yi.

A type who can't learn the breath of thunder.

The other is a type that can only breathe thunder.

"Since you have made up your mind to go, be prepared to die there!"

Ci Wulang's old face flushed when he said that, after he glanced at the suspicious Yue Yue, he turned around and walked towards the butterfly house leaning on crutches.

Yan Yue stood where he was.

He looked at the mask in his hand, and then looked up at the master's back.

——?
A question mark slowly rose above his head.

He will survive, there is no doubt about it.

Survival - that's what he does best.

After firming up his thoughts, Huang Yue casually tied the mask around his waist, turned and left the Butterfly House.

The second floor of Butterfly House.

Shanyi leaned on the window, worriedly looking in the direction where Yue Yue left.

……

……

This is a cemetery.

White tombstones were erected densely, covering the entire mountain, but flowers for worship were neatly inserted in front of each tombstone.

The sun was shining brightly, and the white tombstone seemed to be shining brightly, very quiet.

Ubuyashiki Yoya was wearing a white haori with a wisteria pattern on the hem. With the support of Amane, he was enshrining and cleaning the graves one by one.

"Yaoya..." Tianyin looked worriedly at the obstetric Yoyashiki who was already blind, she hesitated:

"In the future, let me come to pay tribute..."

Yuya Ubuyashiki did not speak, but shook his head slightly, his eyelashes turned into white trembled in the sunlight.

After skillfully inserting the flowers into the vase in front of the tomb, Yaozai raised his head with a gentle tone:
"Tianyin."

"I am nothing compared to these children who are fighting with ghosts with their lives."

At this time.

"Father."

Miyayashiki Hika, who inherited her mother's white hair, slowly walked from the other side, and she walked in front of Yoya.

Said a few words softly.

"That's it." Yaozai nodded, he smiled, and stretched out his hand to gently stroke his daughter's head:
"The pillars have arrived."

He turned his head to Tianyin:

"Let's go."

……

……

outside the cemetery.

The two Yin who were in charge of delivering messages to Rixiang were standing here, talking.

"Hey, tell me."

"why…"

"My lord, do you come to visit the grave every day?"

"For grave-sweeping, once a year is enough."

Yin Jia stared blankly at the sky, the shadow of whirling leaves fell on his face.

The other Yin Yi glanced at him helplessly, then spread his hands:

"Are you an idiot?"

"...Ah?! Say it again?!"

Yin B looked at Yin A with the eyes of a fool, he was silent for a while, and finally said:

"Of course it's because..."

"Every day of the year."

"It's the anniversary of the death of those swordsmen who passed away."

heard.

The noisy Yin A also fell silent, he looked away from B, then touched his head, and slowly lowered his head guiltily.

half an hour.

"you're right."

"what?"

"I'm an idiot."

……

……

soon.

Ubuyashiki mansion.

The pillars have gathered here.

Of course, Tanjuro also came here with Beimingyu.

tread.

The moment he stepped into the courtyard of the mansion, there were still a few lines of sight looking straight at him.

Fushikawa was squinting his eyes, and looked up and down Tanjuro suspiciously, his newly scarred face was full of puzzlement.

He remembered... the last time we met, this guy was much thinner than now...

but…

He grunted inwardly, and turned his head away.

Shinya held two wooden knives in his arms, and he came prepared this time—preparing to avenge his shame.

Last time I just underestimated the enemy.

Swish!
Usui Tengen, who was wearing a shiny jewel on his head, had already walked up to Tanjuro, and looked around.

Then, in Tanjuro's puzzled eyes.

Snapped!Snapped!
Yu Sui Tianyuan patted his shoulder vigorously, gave him a thumbs up, and whispered:

"I heard that you repelled one of the top strings, and you did a magnificent job."

at this time.

Yuya Ubuyashiki's voice came from the roof.

"Is everyone here?"

……

……

for a long time.

After Yasuya Yuya had finished talking about the purpose of summoning the Pillars this time.

"Through... the world?"

Several Zhu looked at each other, except for Beimingyu, they all had some doubts.

"My lord."

Immortal Kawa raised his head, he frowned, and looked at Tanjuro who was standing under the tree beside him:
"I want to have a competition with Mr. Zaomen over there, please allow me."
