Chapter 142 The Eve of the Decisive Battle
Time flies, and time always passes by inadvertently.
Towards the end, the overall atmosphere of the Demon Slayer Corps becomes more subtle. The entire Demon Slayer Corps atmosphere is in an extremely tense atmosphere. Even the team members who don't know the inside story can feel that a storm is coming. The prelude to a full house.
Although there was Roja at the training post, nothing could be changed in one week. Although there was some progress, the time was still too short after all.
The day before the battle agreed by Riukibutsuji Muzan, everyone gathered together early in the morning and prepared to discuss how to deal with the upcoming decisive battle tomorrow.
Luo Ya coughed twice, took the lead to stand up, moistened his throat slightly, and said to everyone as if a leader was stepping forward to speak: "Tomorrow is the decisive battle, I won't say any more nonsense, everyone, come on, I have seen everyone’s efforts in recent days, and everyone is fully prepared for the coming storm. I am looking forward to tomorrow’s war.”
Roja then seemed to remember something, looked around at the pillars, and said to everyone: "I will deal with Muzan Kibutsuji, and you will most likely have to deal with the three upper strings."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked sideways and looked at Roja. However, the dignity that Roja had accumulated in the past few days made no one question it. They just looked at Roja.
In recent days, the pillars have been almost completely wiped out. No matter how strong the progress is, they will be dealt with badly.
Roja nodded, without saying any more nonsense, and said bluntly: "Only I can cut off Kibutsuji Mukai's head. This is not a distrust of you, but it is indeed the case. None of you can keep up with my speed. "
Luo Ya paused and found that everyone was still silent, and there was no sudden provocation like the previous Zhuhe meeting. Luo Ya nodded with satisfaction.
Roja continued: "But even cutting off the opponent's head will not help. The Ghost King Kibutsuji Muzan is powerful not only in fighting, but he is also better at escaping."
Roja walked in front of everyone, walked around the people around him and slowly said: "Three hundred years ago, there was a swordsman. His strength was extremely terrifying. How terrifying it was. Even if he was eighty years old, gradually... The old body can still wield the sword in its heyday, but the current one is almost killed by the opponent's sword. "
All the pillars looked at each other. Kanroji Mitsuri was standing in the team at this time. She looked up and found that everyone had silent expressions. She couldn't help but ask: "That's it. Let's deal with Kibutsuji Muzan together, right?" Is it better? There is strength in numbers.”
Roja shook his head and looked at the crowd and said: "No, in dealing with Ghost Dance Tsuji Muzan, it is not just the number of people that can create an advantage. Once Ghost Dance Tsuji Muzan becomes alert, he will definitely run away, just like three people." At that moment a hundred years ago, Tsuji Muzan turned into seven hundred pieces of flesh and escaped. "
All the pillars were slightly startled when they heard this, and Ganluji Mili opened her mouth wide and exclaimed: "More than seven hundred pieces?"
Roja expressed that he was very satisfied with his wife's shock, so with the two singing in harmony, he successfully restored the battle between Enichi Tsukuni and Mumei Kibutsuji. At this moment, everyone was frowning.
Yin Zhu couldn't help but step forward and asked seriously: "Gorgeous young man, is this really okay?"
The sound column naturally means that the matter of dealing with Muzan Kibutsuji can be left to Roja alone.
Roja shook his head and laughed: "I have also seen the battles in the past few days. Which one of you can keep up with my speed? Compared with the Ghost King, those who have to wind the strings still have to be left to you. Don't look at how relaxed and comfortable I am. Killed three Shang Xing, actually Shang Xing is not an easy character to deal with.”
Yin Zhu was silent for a while, nodded, and returned to the team.
Luo Ya looked at everyone's different expressions and thought that everyone was a little dissatisfied, so he continued: "Of course, everyone can come over to suppress the battle after finishing the battle. In short, everyone must help each other. Well, this speech is about That’s it, let’s break up the meeting.”
Although Roja said the meeting was dismissed, in fact no one had any intention of leaving.
Everyone looked at each other and saw the fervent determination in each other's eyes.
The decisive battle is imminent, and tomorrow will already be the final fight with Muzan Kibutsuji.
That morning, the atmosphere in the entire Demon Slayer Corps was completely aroused, and everyone fell into a state of tension and excitement.
Most of the people who join the Demon Slayer Team are determined to kill all the ghosts in the world because their wives, children, or parents and family members were brutally killed by ghosts.
Now that their long-cherished wish is about to come true, who wouldn’t be excited?
After a whole day of cultivation, Luo Ya took the newly acquired Nichirin Sword. There were two Nichirin Swords hanging on his waist at this time. He took out the new Nichirin Sword, and the sun's breath circulated, while exhaling luck, Breathing out thick long mist, he kept exerting force with his right arm, his body temperature began to rise, and the temperature around him also began to rise.
The Nichirin sword in his hand began to change color, and finally became the new He sword.
"Well." Roja looked at He Dao and fell into deep thought.
It seems that He Dao will not return to its original state with the passage of time, at least not in the short term. Why don't you give the members of the Demon Slayer Team a buff before leaving?
After pondering for a while, Roja felt that something was wrong.
Although the He Dao does not add much to the strength, it is much more lethal to ghosts.
At lunch, I teased Kanroji Mitsuri as usual and said to Kamado Aoi: "Soon, when this battle is over, you can go back, and there won't be so many things in the future."
Kamado Aoi nodded and teased the child with her right hand. Smiling, she said to Roya: "Well, thank you for your help."
Roya waved his hand and turned to Kamado Tanjiro and said: "Boy, follow behind the pillar, don't be strong alone, if you really can't, follow Kanroji Mitsuri."
Because of Roya, Kanroji Mitsuri has been following Roya here to eat and drink. Although her appetite is a bit large, Kanroji Mitsuri has always been welcomed by Tanjiro's family.
Kanroji Mitsuri heard what Roya said, raised her eyes and nodded seriously, and said to Kamado Tanjiro: "When fighting, hide behind your sister~Sister will protect you."
Kanroji Mitsuri likes to take care of children, and Kamado Tanjiro is naturally a child in Kanroji Mitsuri's eyes.
Both of them are passionate and sincere, and it is very pleasant to get along with them.
Tanjiro Kamado nodded shyly, and then said seriously: "I will work hard, I will not hold you back, and I will try to help."
To be honest, if something unexpected really happens, Tanjiro Kamado might burst out with the protagonist's talent and start a burst.
Bringing Tanjiro Kamado is like bringing half a pillar, although the endurance of this pillar is relatively low.
The day before the decisive battle, like the past, will not become special because it is a decisive battle.
The summer breeze blows the wisteria flowers, and the wisteria petals scattered on the ground dye the ground with a layer of purple.
After dinner, holding Kanroji Mitsuri, sitting in the courtyard, looking at the rolling white clouds outside the house, Luo Ya sighed: "I hope that all this will end tomorrow."
Kanroji Mitsuri is no longer as shy as before, and her face is always flushed, but the effect of the steam girl is greatly reduced.
This makes Luo Ya quite regretful.
The rattan chair was very comfortable to sit on, and it felt even more comfortable to hold the cute girl in his arms. This was a different experience. Mitsuri Kanroji leaned her cheek over and suddenly said to Luoya seriously: "Don't come back with an arm or a leg missing after the fight."
Luoya laughed and shook his head, pointing at himself and said: "Are you still not sure about my strength? Don't worry, I will work hard even for you."
The softness in his arms, the birds singing on the branches in the distance, and the wisteria flowers blooming inside and outside the house.
Feeling the peaceful years, Luoya even felt like he had come to the life of an elderly person who had retired in advance.
——
The next day, Luoya got up early. The pillars were ready to go, and the entire Demon Slayer Corps had gathered. Everyone had an excited and nervous look on their faces.
Luoya nodded to everyone, greeted each other, and then walked towards the courtyard where Ubuyashiki Yoya was. Although he was the strongest fighter of the Demon Slayer Corps, he was still a worker after all, and the command still depended on Ubuyashiki Yoya.
There is no doubt that Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's command ability is much better than Roya.
Ubuyashiki Yoshiya was standing in the courtyard at this time, and he was dressed neatly. On this day, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya looked more energetic than before.
Ubuyashiki Yoshiya looked around at everyone and said to everyone: "Then, I will assign the tasks to everyone first. The Upper String Two will be handed over to the Rock Pillar, the Wind Pillar, and the Flame Pillar."
Then Ubuyashiki Yoshiya looked at the three people, including Gyoumei of Sadness Island, Minami Fushigawa, and Rengoku Kyojuro.
The three nodded and responded, indicating that they understood.
Then Ubuyashiki Yoshiya turned his eyes to Tomioka Giyu, Kocho Shinobu, and Iguro Obanai again, and said to the three people: "The Upper String Four will be handed over to you."
The three nodded.
Ubuyashiki Yoya coughed a little and continued, "The only one left is Upper Six."
Roya suddenly said, "Not only is there an Upper Six, there is a special demon named Naruto inside, this guy has special abilities and can control the terrain of the Infinite City."
After this, everyone focused their attention on Roya again. No one asked how Roya knew this, but Roya's words brought more information to everyone.
Ubuyashiki Yoya frowned slightly, and his handsome face showed a thoughtful expression. Ubuyashiki Yoya asked, "Nruto?" Suddenly, Ubuyashiki Yoya asked curiously, "Nru Pillar, how much information do you know about the other party?"
Roya thought for a while and said to Ubuyashiki Yoya, "Not only Naruto can control the Infinite City, Muzan Kibutsuji can also control the Infinite City. You may not know what the Infinite City is. The Infinite City is actually a different space. The entire Infinite City is centered on Naruto, like a twisted structure, and the structure cannot be distinguished up, down, left, and right. The map is very large. ”
Ubuyashiki Yoya nodded and murmured, “Is that so? Then, Tokito Muichiro, Uzui Tengen, the opponent is left to you to deal with.”
Tokito Muichiro hummed lightly and did not say much. Ubuyashiki Yoya was already familiar with the other party’s temper. He continued to look at the remaining few people and said, “Then, the Upper Six is left to you, the newly promoted Love Pillar-Kanroji Mitsuri, Kocho Shinobu and Tomioka Giyu, and little Kamado Tanjiro.”
This time the team’s combat power is considered to be over the standard. If the original pillars really hit it head-on, they will really have to pay a painful price to defeat the opponent.
But because Roya cleared almost half of the opponent's top combat power, the chance of winning this time was greatly increased, so that Roya, who knew the original work, felt that this time he was a bit overqualified.
Ubuyashiki Yoya paused and continued to say to everyone: "Of course, after each pillar has dealt with the upper strings in time, you must quickly respond to support other pillars."
Everyone present nodded in unison. Everyone is a family. There is no need to say anything else. Everyone can help if they can.
Ubuyashiki Yoya cast his eyes on Roya standing in the center and nodded: "Then, Muzan Kibutsuji, it's up to you, Roya."
The early morning light shone on Roya's figure, the dazzling golden hair dancing in the wind, the light golden feathers draped over his shoulders, and the pair of red-gold eyes were like flowing lava.
Roya just stood here silently, and the aura he exuded was enough to make everyone feel convinced.
Luo Ya said calmly: "Of course."
Ubuyashiki Yoya nodded, picked up a wisteria petal in his hand, and said to everyone: "In this case, let's get ready to set off."
The group set off in a mighty manner towards the location of the Infinite City.
Ubuyashiki Yoya is in poor health, but compared to the original work, the current Ubuyashiki Yoya can walk normally.
Some people are opposed to Ubuyashiki Yoya following the large group and heading towards the Infinite City.
For example, Engoku Kyojuro stepped forward and tried to stop Ubuyashiki Yoya from following the large group.
Engoku Kyojuro said to Ubuyashiki Yoshiya: "My lord, as the core of the team, I think it's better for you to stay at home."
Ubuyashiki Yoshiya shook his head and said: "Although I am your lord, I am also a member of the Demon Slayer Corps. At this time, everyone is going out to the battlefield. How can I hide behind?"
Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's words are well-reasoned and irrefutable, at least Rengoku Kyojuro cannot refute them. A simple sentence blocked all Rengoku Kyojuro's words.
Rengoku Kyojuro really didn't want Ubuyashiki Yoshiya to go to Infinite City. After all, there were too many unstable factors. Who knows if there will be other demons ambushing nearby? The pillars are fighting in Infinite City. If something happens, everyone will not be able to provide timely support.
However, looking at Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's determined eyes, Rengoku Kyojuro also knew that no matter how much he persuaded him, he could not persuade him.
He could only sigh, nod to everyone, and said, "No strength, let's go."
The location of the Infinite City is not far away, but even so, it was not until the afternoon that it arrived.
Ubuyashiki Yoya stood at the door and began to direct the team members to make arrangements.
Roya called all the pillars over and said to everyone, "Give me the Sun Wheel Sword."
When others were still hesitating, Kanroji Mitsuri took the lead in handing her Sun Wheel Sword to Roya.
Roya smiled at Kanroji Mitsuri, nodded and said, "There is a skill called the Red Blade, which can cause great damage to demons. Even if the upper strings want to recover the cut parts, it will take some time. Now I will open the Red Blade for everyone."
After saying that, Roya's right hand holding the sword bulged with blue veins, the Sun Breathing began to operate, and the temperature around him began to rise rapidly.
Then, in front of everyone's astonishment, Kanroji Mitsuri's special Sun Wheel Sword began to change.
The originally pink blade began to gradually turn red, and finally formed a scarlet color. When the blade was completely formed, Roya returned the Sun Blade to Kanroji Mitsuri, smiled at Kanroji Mitsuri and said, "It may not look good, but it is indeed very practical. Use it first."
Kanroji Mitsuri nodded and took the red blade from Roya's hand. The moment she took it in her hand, she was slightly surprised. Even with the handle, Kanroji Mitsuri could feel the scorching heat emanating from the Sun Blade.
The next one was Rengoku Kyojuro. He simply pulled out the Sun Blade from his waist and handed it to Roya.
Roya began to enchant everyone one by one. After everyone took the newly acquired red blade, he nodded to everyone and said, "That's it."
Everyone showed curiosity about the new toys they had just received.
No more nonsense was said. Since the Infinite City was a different space and a city belonging to ghosts, the sun could not shine in even during the day.
Noticing the arrival of everyone, he didn't say much and pulled everyone into the Infinite City in an instant.
With the fluctuation of space, the vision above and below reversed, and the whole room began to shake violently. When Roya reacted, the people around him had disappeared.
But Roya didn't care. Only the nine pillars and Tanjiro Kamado came this time. Even if everyone was separated for a while, they would not be easily defeated. Although the Infinite City involves space operation, it is not as powerful as imagined. The woman who controls this house can only make changes inside the Infinite City. These are a bit troublesome for the pillar-level swordsmen, but they are only troublesome.
Roya began to walk forward slowly.
The space here gave Roya a very subtle feeling, and he always felt a little uncomfortable.
But think about it, this is a ghost's nest after all, so it is not surprising to have such a feeling.
But as he walked forward, Roya felt more and more that something was wrong.
Roya tightly grasped the Sun Wheel Sword at his waist and looked up at the end of the road.
At this time, there was a person sitting on the top of a huge building that looked like a cliff.
Luo Ya's pupils suddenly shrank.
It should be almost over tomorrow, if not tomorrow then the day after tomorrow
