Chapter 223 Success...
"Muzan... is dead..."
Hearing Kokushibo's heavy voice, Tanjiro turned back stiffly and looked at Kokushibo in disbelief.
"The first demon, Muzan? Dead? How is that possible... And why is Mr. Kokushibo still..."
Tanjiro covered his mouth halfway through his speech, his expression becoming a little embarrassed, but Kokushibo didn't care, because he was not completely recovered from the shock, and he lowered his head while thinking as he spoke.
"It's unbelievable, but... Muzan is definitely dead. It seems that the demons that are out of control will not disappear with his death..."
After saying that, he raised his head and looked at Tanjiro who was sweating profusely beside him.
"Lucky kid... Tamayo should still be alive."
A drop of cold sweat ran down his forehead. Tanjiro opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment. After thinking for a long time, he finally spoke.
"Anyway, let's go find Mr. Yunyi first."
But at this time, Xiaonin, who had collapsed on the ground, slowly stood up from the ground, crushed a pill in her mouth, and green light emerged around her and turned into vitality after entering her body to heal her wounds.
Looking at the backs of the man and the ghost leaving in front of her, she heard clearly what Kokushibo said just now.
Although it was Kokushibo who saved her at the critical moment, Shinobu would not believe what the demon said. She would rather believe that the truth was that her partner cut off the demon's head.
He placed his hand on the hilt of the knife with trembling hands. Although the opponent's strength was extremely terrifying, Xiaonin still wanted to stop them and ask them clearly!
bass!
"I advise you... to take the knife back..."
An extremely cold voice sounded, and cold murderous intent was continuously released from the evil spirit in front of him, washing over Xiaonin's weak body.
Gritting his teeth, Xiaonin tried desperately to pull out the knife, but his raised arm was shaking like a sieve, and he only slowly calmed down after the two figures disappeared into the darkness.
Releasing his hand from the hilt of the knife, Shinobu knelt on the ground in a daze, with his head lowered, thinking over and over in his mind the truth of what Kokushibo said, "Muzan is dead."
At this moment, two sounds of breaking wind were heard in front of them. Shinobu, whose thoughts were disrupted, looked up and found that Uzui and Busei were already standing in front of them. He looked around with a serious look and asked Shinobu beside him in a deep voice.
"What happened here? And...where did that guy go!?"
Seeing the two people's anxious looks, Shinobu was about to speak when Inosuke's dissatisfied roar came from a distance.
"What the hell! I was about to saw off that evil ghost's head, but the bastard just turned into dust. It's so infuriating!"
Hearing the voice, Xiaonin's eyes froze and his open mouth closed again.
Could it be that...really...
Everyone gathered on the ruined street. Except for Muichiro, everyone looked at Xiaonin who was slumped on the ground, their eyes full of questions, wanting to know what had just happened.
Xiaonin quickly informed everyone what had just happened.
After listening to Shinobu's story, everyone was in disbelief at first, but they also remembered the situation of Inosuke and others, and fell silent.
"Everyone, please stop looking so serious... Isn't it a good thing that Wuzan is dead?"
Finally, Zenitsu, with blood all over his face, spoke first, pretending to be relaxed, but his words were like a fuse, igniting everyone's discussion the moment they fell.
"If he really died, that would definitely be a good thing!"
"But can we believe the words of evil spirits..."
"No, I feel like that guy wasn't lying..."
"Is it…"
"First inform the lord of this news, he will surely make a judgment."
Just as several people were discussing enthusiastically, Xiaonin, who had been silent, suddenly interrupted the discussion.
"Wait a moment!"
Everyone stopped talking and turned their eyes to Shinobu, who looked at Uzui and Fuzukawa with confusion.
"Where's the wolf?"
On the other side, standing in front of a house full of bullet holes, Tanjiro called out Yoriichi's name loudly, but no one responded.
"It's strange..."
Touching the back of his head, he muttered softly. He clearly saw Mr. Yunichirō saving him and the members of the Demon Slayer Corps here, and Mr. Yunichirō did not return to the hotel.
Where did you go…
Beside him, Kokushiboru scanned the surroundings with his eyes. In the transparent world, he also did not see Yoshiichirō's figure. He raised his eyebrows and thought to himself.
He left... but he didn't take this kid with him... Could it be that... Muzan's death has something to do with you...
Yunichi suddenly disappeared at this special time, which made Kokushibo inevitably associate the two things together, but he was not worried that Yunichi would leave. After all...
He glanced sideways at the silly Tanjiro standing beside him.
This kid is still in my hands...
..............................
Time flows a little further back, when Fuzugawa and Uzui destroy Nightmare and the wolf kills Peilang.
At the bottom of the Infinite City, Wuzan’s curled up body shook violently, his eyes turned white, he raised his head and let out a sharp roar, then kept hitting the ground, creating deep pits one after another in the earth.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"
At the cave entrance above, Naruto looked at the frantic Muzan with concern, and lightly played the pipa, releasing more eye clones, searching for the Demon Slayer Corps while looking for the Upper Ranks who could not be contacted for some reason.
At this moment, Muzan was no longer someone that she, a ghost, could comfort...
The next moment, Wuzan’s vigorous struggle suddenly stopped.
Dark and scarlet karma entangled his body, and his flesh and blood began to constantly disintegrate, as if great pain had befallen him, twisting and struggling his body.
Stab it!
His heart exploded, and another gap opened in his chest, but what flowed out was not flesh but dark karma. His face was full of pain, and he reached out and inserted his fingers into the gaping hole in his chest.
With scarlet karma lingering around his body, Wuzan used both hands to tear open the crack, exposing his entire chest to the air!
If there were other people present, they would definitely be surprised to see that at this moment, Wuzan’s chest was empty and full of darkness.
“…success…success…”
Repeating these three words, Wuzan struggled to get up from the ground and slowly knelt on the ground...
The ink-black karma poured from his chest into the earth, sinking through the land until it reached the end of everything.
The life in his eyes grew dimmer, but his pale face showed an expression of great excitement, and his lips trembled slightly.
"I am coming…"
Finally, I closed my eyes...
At the hole above, before Mingnu could react, most of her body embedded in the wall disappeared in an instant, leaving only the half of her one eye, which was full of confusion and surprise.
"Master Wuhan..."
Wow.
The body, along with the released clones, disappeared completely from the world in such a ridiculous way, and it was not only Mingnu's ghost that disappeared.
Hantengu who was fighting the Demon Slayer Corps in Asakusa, the demons who were recruiting members for the Demon Slayer Corps in Fujiwarayama, and the ordinary demons who were attacking a house...
In this world, except for Tamayo, Yushiro, and Kokushibo who escaped from Muzan's control, all the evil spirits disappeared at this moment...
