Chapter 80…What are you afraid of…

…Use this…to decide the outcome…

Facing Kokushibo who was slowly walking towards him... no, Tsugakugo Iwakatsu, Wolf thought in his heart.

Just when the wolf was about to pull out the Undying Slash, a melodious pipa sound was heard, and Kokushibo's black body, like a mummy, instantly disappeared from the wolf's sight.

Seeing this, Wolf didn't care about anything else and immediately tried his best to suppress the surging murderous intent in his heart. After a moment, the red sparks on his body gradually dissipated, and the prosthetic hand returned to normal.

He pulled out the long sword that was slightly extended from his back and held it in front of him. Sure enough, as the wolf exited the Shura state, the Undying Sword behind him turned back into the previous Tonrin long sword that was forged by the Iron Mound and the village chief.

The owl that was circling in the sky above the battlefield suddenly emitted white light which disappeared into the sky. Its eyes, which had originally become vicious and sharp, turned back into dull big eyes.

At this moment, the humanoid bird looked helpless and exhausted. The exhaustion made it stop flapping its wings and it fell straight to the ground, splashing a small cloud of dust. Then its fat body began to rise and fall regularly, and it was obvious that it had fallen asleep.

After putting the Odachi back into the sheath, he picked up the owl from the ground and held it in his arms. Wolf looked in the direction where Kokushibo disappeared and many questions arose in his mind.

However, most of them could not be solved at the moment, so Wolf could only put aside his doubts and walk towards the three people from Busei.

At this moment, in the Infinite City

Qiang~

A dark and dry figure mixed with red sparks appeared among the intricate buildings.

"... Lord Kokushibo..."

Looking at Kokushibo, whose appearance had changed drastically after just a few moments of not seeing him, Mingnu's voice became a little hesitant.

Facing Mingnu's call, at this moment, the unconscious Kokushibo could only swing his sword instinctively.

He raised the pitch-black blade in his hand and slashed straight towards Mingnu!

Red sparks lit up on the blade, like dying embers encountering a breeze.

The next moment, a sea of ​​fire flew out from the blade and rushed straight towards Mingnu!

Clang!

The sound of the pipa rang out again, and then the wooden house was burned to ashes in an instant, drifting to every corner of the Infinite City.

And the kneeling figure of Naruto appeared on the platform behind Kokushibo. Her bangs blocked her face, so her expression could not be seen, but the veins of her hand holding the biwa were visible, indicating that she was not at peace at the moment.

"Master Kokushibo...Master Muzan has been waiting for you for a long time..."

Before he could finish his words, sparks flashed under Kokushibo's feet, and the next moment a dark figure holding a knife appeared in front of Mingnu, blocking the light in front of him.

Feeling the hot breath on his face, he was about to stroke the biwa, but Kokushibo's sword was faster!

Two swift slashes were swung out, about to cut Mingnu into four pieces, but at this moment a voice of suppressed anger sounded in his ears.

"…This…is confiscated."

puff!

Mingnu's body was not cut in half, but Kokushibo's right arm holding the knife was missing. Muzan, wearing a suit and a top hat, walked out from behind him.

The man who was holding Kokushibo's right hand tightly gripping the knife felt the familiar ominous aura on it, frowned, and threw it back into Kokushibo's arms.

The next moment, the scarlet pupils swept across Mingnu.

Qiang~

Then the figure disappeared and appeared on the platform behind Kokushibo, looking down at him condescendingly, frowning and speaking with anger.

"I've already given you instructions, why don't you run away!"

Looking at Kokushibo's body that looked like a charred corpse, and his right arm that had never been reconnected, Muzan believed that Kokushibo's strength must have been greatly reduced this time, and the overall strength of the demon had been seriously reduced.

This made him both shocked and angry...

More importantly...his disobedience to orders challenged his authority at this moment.

The look she gave Kokushibo became increasingly colder, but facing the cold murderous intent, Mingnu was already trembling with fear, and Kokushibo no longer took any action.

His brows furrowed even deeper, and Muzan could no longer suppress his anger. His fangs stretched out from his mouth, his scarlet vertical pupils lit up, and he roared angrily.

"say!"

In the face of Muzan's anger, Kokushibo didn't even turn his head and uttered two bytes from his mouth.

"...Yuichi..."

?

The Demon King, who had keen senses, clearly heard what Kokushibo was muttering. Muzan was stunned at first, then the corners of his mouth trembled, and he was so angry that he actually laughed out loud.

Then it suddenly became gloomy, and there seemed to be a roaring and rolling wild beast under the clothes on his back.

"You are really tired of living..."

But before he could teach his enemy a lesson, flames rose up under Kokushibo's feet, and the next moment he was on the platform. He was unable to connect his right arm, so he held his right arm with his left hand and smashed it towards Muzan violently!

At this moment, countless tentacles shot out from behind Wuzan and coiled towards Kokushibo from different directions.

In just a moment, Kokushibo's remaining three limbs were tied up, and the controlled tentacles hung Kokushibo in front of him, and Kokushibo was still muttering that name at this time.

"...Yuichi..."

Upon hearing this name, Muzan felt a burning sensation in the wounds on his body and was about to tear off the remaining limbs of Kokushibo as punishment.

But at this moment, the other party's eyes were dry and lifeless, his clenched hands gently loosened, and he was thinking secretly in his heart.

Was it affected by that strange flame...

His eyes focused, and with a wave of his hand, the spikes on the tentacles pierced into Kokushibo's body, injecting a large amount of blood into Kokushibo's body.

Suddenly, Kokushibo's struggling body became stable. With so much blood of Muzan, his strength gradually increased.

However, the charred body burned by the Shura Fire could not withstand the sudden increase in strength, and the flesh and blood began to crack. Even so, the infusion of Muzan's blood had not stopped.

Just when Kokushibo's body was about to break apart, his eyes became calm and steady, just like before, he scanned the Infinite Castle, and finally set his sights on Muzan.

"Humph"

When Wuzan saw this, he snorted coldly, then waved his hand to disperse the tentacles, looked at Kokushibo coldly, and said in a deep voice.

"Tell me...what happened."

Without the tentacles entangled him, Kokushibo fell from mid-air and landed steadily on the ground. He first reattached his broken arm to the wound. Although it took a long time, he finally did it.

Looking at his charred body that could not be restored, he pondered for a moment, turned his head to look at Muzan, did not speak for a long time, then half-knelt on the ground and spoke in a flat voice.

“…I have nothing to say…”

"I have nothing to say…You say I have nothing to say? Haha…hahahaha!"

When the voice reached Muzan's ears, it was as if he had heard a huge joke. The smile on his face became even more intense, but the bulging veins and frowning brows made his smile look extremely hideous.

The smile stopped abruptly, and the next moment he teleported across dozens of meters to the front of Kokushibo, looked at the other's lowered head, and shouted.

"Let me tell you something! You are inferior in skills and arrogant. It would be fine if you killed the swordsman, but now you have become like this!"

After saying that, he stepped towards Kokushibo's head as if to vent his anger, and just when he was about to crush it, he thought about it and put his foot down.

Then he yelled to Mingnu who was standing beside him.

"Teleport him out!"

"learn…"

Mingnu responded softly and raised her hand to stroke the pipa.

Just as he was about to disappear, Kokushibo, who had not spoken since then, raised his head and looked at Muzan.

"Run away... Lord Muzan... what are you afraid of..."

Qiang~

Then the figure disappeared in the Infinite City...

The place where it was just now was blown up into large pieces of wood chips the instant after it disappeared, as if it had been hit by a meteorite.

Muzan's angry voice echoed throughout the Infinite City.
