In the Sand Village, the clones are everywhere, and the Arkham game begins

Chapter 128 Zhuhe Meeting
One day later, Sagiri Mountain.

"Wha-wow!"

Two crows were circling in the sky, chirping, relaying the message from Ubuyashiki Yoya.

"Mr. Urokodaki! I'll leave Nezuko in your care for the time being!"

Tanjiro knelt on the ground in a dogeza posture and kowtowed twice to Urokodaki Sakonji.

Since the last time at Kumotori Mountain, Nezuko had forced herself to grow bigger in order to protect Tanjiro, which consumed too much energy and caused her to fall into a coma halfway through the journey.

"I will take good care of Nezuko. She is safe here with me. You can go to the meeting without worry."

Urokodaki Sakonji, who was wearing a red Crow Tengu mask, spoke to Tanjiro, Shimizu, and Tomioka Giyuu.

"Let's go, Yin is waiting outside."

Giyu Tomioka led everyone outside.

Ever since the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters was betrayed by a traitor more than three hundred years ago, its level of secrecy has been taken to a new level. If ordinary team members want to go to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, they must be blindfolded, wear earplugs, and be escorted by secluded escorts throughout the journey. These secluded escorts need to be rotated many times during the journey.

However, Tomioka Giyu does not need to blindfold himself because he is a Pillar, whose status in the Demon Slayer Corps is second only to Ubuya Tomiyoshi.

Another day later.

In an unknown mountain, there is the Ubuyashiki mansion.

Giyu Tomioka led the way and brought Shimizu here.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Yiyong!"

A tall young man with red and yellow hair came to the door at the same time.

"And these two team members I haven't met, I'm the A-class swordsman, Rengoku Kyojuro!"

Rengoku Kyojuro's loud and powerful voice, his bright eyes, and his owl-like hairstyle leave a deep impression on people at first sight.

"Hello, my name is Tanjiro Kamado!"

Tanjiro seemed to be influenced by Rengoku Kyojuro and replied in a loud voice.

"Uesugi Shimizu."

Shimizu nodded slightly to Rengoku Kyojuro.

Giyu Tomioka didn't say anything, he just walked forward and pushed open the door to the yard.

In the open space in front of the steps, several pillars with different temperaments knelt in a row.

Shimizu took a quick glance and found that among the nine pillars of the original time and space, except for Rengoku Kyojuro who was still only a Class A swordsman and had not yet been promoted to a pillar, only the Love Pillar Kanroji Mitsuri had not returned to her position and was probably still serving as an apprentice to Rengoku Kyojuro.

A handsome man with a light purple scar on his forehead stood in front of the six pillars, his face gentle.
"Giyuu, Kyojuro, you're here, and Shimizu-kun, this is the first time we meet."

Ubuyashiki Kazuya greeted with a faint smile on his face.

"My Lord." ×2
"Yaoya-senpai."

Tomioka Giyu and Rengoku Kyojuro knelt down in front of Ubuyashiki Yoshiya, while Shimizu just stood there and nodded to Ubuyashiki Yoshiya.

Ubuyashiki was a noble, and he was also a noble. Neither of them would become the other's retainer.

Unless he abandons his wife and children and voluntarily withdraws from the family for the sake of greater power, just like Jiguo Yansheng did four hundred years ago.

"Hey, hey, hey! Isn't this a meeting of the pillars? Why are you here? And the red-haired guy, why are you, an A-class swordsman, here to join in the fun, and there's even a brat with you."

Fushigawa Miya looked at Shimizu, then looked at Rengoku Kyojuro.

"Where's Makijuro-senpai? In the past, he would have made a grand entrance."

Sound Pillar Uzui Tengen stroked his long white hair and said. Shimizu noticed that Tomioka Giyuu was kneeling on the ground and began to be in a daze.

"Actually... Father..."

"Are you sure you are qualified to be a pillar? And you, Uesugi Kiyomizu, that red-haired guy is fine, but he is at least an A-class swordsman. You should have just passed the final selection last week, right?"

Qingshui was confused.

What does this have to do with me? Aren't you looking for trouble with Rengoku Kyojuro?
Although I know that Fushigi Sane has a bad temper, he was not like this the last time we met. Could it be that he is having his period?

But Qingshui would not allow himself to be scolded.

"The final selection is not difficult. A person's strength is not determined by how long he has been holding a sword. Senior Wind Pillar, if you are in a bad mood, you can go to the Flower Street to have fun. There is no need to vent here."

Shimizu crossed his arms and said to Fushigi Sane.

"You are so arrogant, kid. Don't think you are powerful just because you have a musket! In the eyes of a true master, a musket can't do much.

I'm sorry, my lord, but as the one who brought him into the Demon Slayer Corps, I feel that I need to teach him a lesson."

Fushigawa Miya stood up and Shimizu also frowned.

It's endless, right?
"You want to fight, I'll fight with you."

Facing the fist swung by Fushigi Kagawa, Shimizu did not intend to be polite. He dodged sideways, and used his right hand as a hand knife instead of the Nichirin sword, and hit Fushigi Kagawa in the face.

"No fighting! Fighting between soldiers is prohibited."

Rengoku Kyojuro hurried forward to stop him.

The movements of the three attracted the attention of all the pillars, even Tomioka Giyuu who was in a daze.

"My Lord, this..."

Shinobu Kocho looked at Ubuyashiki Kōya.

"It's okay. Saneya will know his limits. I believe Kyojuro already has the ability to become a Hashira. Shimizu is also a miraculous genius like Tokito. They will surprise you."

Ubuyashiki Yoya said gently.

"By the way, Shiya is very angry today. Is there something provoking him?"

The Snake Pillar Iguro Obanai asked curiously.

"Namo Amitabha. I guess it's Shimizu's younger brother Xuanmi who chose to follow the same path as him and wanted to join the Demon Slayer Corps."

Beimingyu Xingming put his palms together and spoke.

"Come to think of it, they fight pretty spectacularly! Hey! Busui, can you do it?"

Tengen Uzui made a trumpet shape with his hands and shouted at Fushigawa Minami in the yard, looking like a joking person.

"How can I repair it! You shut up! Yu Sui!"

This time, Fuzukawa Miyabi was really furious.

Because he found out...he really couldn't defeat these two people.

Rengoku Kyojuro just wanted to stop the fight, but the power and speed displayed in his moves had already reached the level of a Pillar.

Fushigawa Minoru was a little surprised by this, but he also thought it was still within the scope of understanding.

Although we don't know Makijuro's current situation, if he can no longer continue to serve as the Flame Pillar, then given that the Rengoku family has served as the Flame Pillar for generations, his son Rengoku Kyojuro, as an A-class swordsman, will definitely be the one to take his place.

Fushigawa Miyabi was also intentionally testing whether Rengoku Kyojuro had enough strength to take on the responsibility of a Pillar.
