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

Chapter 156 Diseased Leaves
Kumamoto City, Ashokita Town.

Shimizu walked into Fujiya carrying a wooden box.

Inside the box was a simple armored puppet he made to enhance strength, speed and defense.

Referring to the previous battle with Tengen Uzui, the two were able to end up in a draw, which also allowed Shimizu to have an accurate assessment of his own combat effectiveness.

When only using breathing techniques, he is stronger than all the lower-rank demons, but he is not so safe against upper-rank demons.

Fortunately, he knew more than just breathing techniques.

By wearing the armor puppet, the combat power can be raised to a higher level. With the help of the gorilla scarlet iron rifle and the ninjutsu he has mastered, as long as he does not encounter Muzan and Kokushibo, the two current combat power ceilings, there will be no problem in saving his life.

If you really encounter this, you can only consider yourself unlucky and wish for the best.

But probably not.

"It was a very fast ghost, so fast that I could hardly react. One of my teammates was attacked, and the rest of us could only stand with our backs to each other to block the attack."

"It was at that time that we saw the true face of the demon. It was an evil demon with pointy ears and scars all over its body. The words "Lower String 3" were written on its eyes. After knowing that we had encountered a demon of the Lower String, we unanimously decided that the older swordsman would cover the rear, and let the younger swordsman run ahead and bring back the news."

A sixteen or seventeen-year-old D-rank Demon Slayer swordsman with a broken arm spoke to Shimizu with tears in his eyes.

A swordsman had been killed here before, so Ubuyashiki Yoya dispatched four swordsmen nearby, all of whom were of higher level and stronger strength.

Two are in Class D, one is in Class C, and one is in Class B.

This lineup was enough to deal with all the evil spirits except the Twelve Demon Moons, but they still encountered the Lower Three.

But fortunately, the guy was strong enough and managed to escape with his life.

"Senior Shimizu, I know you are a Class A swordsman, but this is the Twelve Demon Months after all. Should we ask the lord to notify the pillar to come, which would be safer?"

"No need, a lower-ranking demon, with my strength, it shouldn't be a problem."

Shimizu sat upright on the tatami and poured a cup of tea for the swordsman in front of him who was destined to retire at the age of sixteen or seventeen.

"Tell me how you found this ghost."

"Well, at first, according to the information handed over by the Butterfly House, this ghost is very strange. He only likes to eat human hearts, and the people killed by him will show symptoms of being cut by a sharp object..."

Qingshui raised his head suddenly.

This symptom of death...is so familiar.

The Lower Moon Demons...seem to be able to turn people into demons, right?

Shimizu thought of the spider family at Nada Spider Mountain who were turned into ghosts by the Lower Five.

It seems that the enemy has been found.

That night.

The night was dark and windy, and the sky was dim and starry.

Qingshui sat cross-legged on the roof of a house, wearing an armored puppet, holding the Sun Blade squarely in front of him, closing his eyes and sensing his surroundings.

At a certain moment, Qingshui suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards a street.

"Did it really appear?"

A blurry black shadow was carrying two young women and running out into the street.

"Shh!"

In just a breath of time, a blue sword light flashed.

"Ok?"

The blurry ghost figure quickly retreated, looking left and right at his severed arms and the two young women who fell not far ahead.

"A year ago, had you been to the Koga region?"

Qingshui glanced at the two unconscious women on the ground and walked forward.

On the third day of the waning moon, Sick Leaf stroked his chin with his newly grown hand and looked at Qing Shui with interest.

"This long breath, is it from a Pillar? If I can eat you, I should become stronger, right? As long as I kill more Pillars, Lord Muzan will definitely give me more blood, right? In this way, I will soon be able to become an upper-rank demon." Another sharp sword light flashed across.

"I'm asking you a question."

Qingshui made a sword flower, glanced at the three faint claw marks on the surface of the armor, and said indifferently.

"Very impressive! You are worthy of being called a pillar. What happened a year ago? I remember that there was a man who looked a bit like you. He actually dared to resist me when he met me. I thought he was quite courageous, so I gave him a drop of blood. I don't know if he managed to survive.

What, is he your family? Did you join the Demon Slayer Corps and become a pillar to avenge him? What a touching story~"

Bing Ye touched his neck, thinking of the wound that almost hit his neck bone. While he was mocking, his eyes gradually became serious.

The nails on the fingers grew rapidly, like ten daggers.

"It's you, then there's no problem."

Qingshui looked at the sick leaf with cold eyes.

After all, Uesugi Shirakawa is the elder brother of this body, and he has borrowed the power of the Uesugi clan a lot in the Demon Slayer world. He has to repay the favor and take revenge.

"Breathing of Li, Second Form, Dance of Li!"

A dazzling blue light flashed across the street and went straight for Sick Leaf's head.

"So fast!"

Sick Leaf was startled, and pulled back, crossing his claws in front of him, only to be chopped into pieces again.

Fortunately, he was able to delay the time a little and was not beheaded.

Qingshui frowned slightly.

My frontal combat power can overwhelm Bingye, but Bingye is very fast and not easy to kill.

"Breathing of Li, Second Form, Ion Cut."

Another blue slash as smooth as a mirror, but Bingye decisively pounced towards the two young women lying on the ground in the distance at the cost of having half of his body chopped off.

Surround Wei and rescue Zhao!

"boom!"

The gun fired, and Bingye's body was instantly hit in the neck by the bullet made of gorilla scarlet iron.

However, as one of the Twelve Demon Moons, his physical strength is far beyond that of an ordinary demon. Although a huge hole was made on his neck, there is still some flesh and blood left.

This time, Bingye was really scared and disappeared from Qingshui's sight in the blink of an eye.

"Zheng!"

Qingshui used Su Qin's sword on his back with one hand, blocking the sword behind him and blocking Bingye's attack.

"Interesting, a vampire technique for invisibility?"

There was almost no movement around, and Qingshui only reacted when he felt the sound of the sick leaf tearing through the air when launching an attack.

But at other times, even Qingshui Ye couldn't notice any unusual movements.

Qingshui changed his pace slightly, stayed beside the two unconscious women, closed his eyes, and sensed calmly.

Qingshui swung out several swords in succession and accurately blocked each of Bingye's attacks.

"how come!"

Sick Leaf was stunned.

But Qingshui had a smile on his face.

This technique of using music score is quite useful.

　The previous content had some bugs. It's not only the upper-rank demons that can turn people into demons, the lower-rank demons can also do so. A typical example is the family of the lower five demons.
