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

Chapter 73: Fuzugawa Saneya

"Ahhh! My dear brother, my dear father, please, let me take a bite!"

The human head rolled on the ground, and a pair of strangely shaped ears flapped on both sides of the head, but they were never able to lift the head into the air like wings.

Until a big hand grabbed the head and stabbed a knife into the mouth, blocking the annoying wailing.

"My name is Fuzugawa Shigeya, and I'm from the Demon Slayer Corps."

Fushigawa Miya looked with interest at Shimizu, who was holding a knife in one hand and restraining his headless body with one foot on the table, and then looked at the short-barreled musket in Uesugi Nobuyuki's hand.

"Demon Slayer Corps?"

Uesugi Nobuyuki looked at his eldest son's head with a grim expression.

"It seems...the rumors are true."

"Oh? It seems you know the existence of ghosts."

Fushigawa Miya spoke.

"The Uesugi family is qualified to access this information, but it was not until today that I truly believed those rumors."

Uesugi Nobuyuki weakly put down the pistol in his hand.

Fushigawa Miya took another look at the pistol, then turned his gaze towards Shimizu.

Shimizu was also looking at Fushigi Sane.

The appearance of this person confirmed his guess.

This... is the world of Demon Slayer!
"This ghost is your brother? Did you cut off his head?"

"So what?"

Shimizu asked back.

Busei Kagawa grinned and drew out his long sword.

Uesugi Shirakawa's mouth, which was torn by the knife, recovered at a much slower speed than before.

"Your sword won't work. You need to use the Nichirin Sword to really chop off his head."

Fushigawa Saneya walked to Shimizu's side playfully and stuffed his head back into the neck of Uesugi Shirakawa's torso.

Uesugi Shirakawa mumbled something incoherently and kept opening his mouth to bite towards Shimizu.

Shimizu copied Fushigi Sane, put the tip of the knife into Uesugi Shirakawa's mouth, and reached out to grasp the long sword handed over by Fushigi Sane.

"and many more……"

Uesugi Nobuyuki suddenly called out to the two of them.

"Is there any way... to make Baichuan... recover?"

"In a thousand years, there has never been an example of a ghost turning back into a human."

Busei Kawai said indifferently.

Qingshui took a deep breath and gripped the handle of the Nichirin Sword tightly.

Except for the Kamado siblings who ate the blue spider lily before becoming demons, no one can turn from a demon back into a human.

After becoming a ghost, if you eat the blue spider lily, you will just become a ghost that is not afraid of sunlight.

"Why, you're not going to do it yet? If you can't bear to do it, I can do it for you."

Fuzugawa Saneya looked at Shimizumichi.

It was the same for him back then. In order to protect his younger brothers and sisters, he had to fight his mother who had turned into a ghost. When daybreak came, he was misunderstood because of his younger brother who had killed his mother.

What now?
What will this young man do?
Being able to defeat demons without knowing any breathing techniques, in the current Demon Slayer Corps, only he and Rock Pillar Beimeiyu Gyōmei have been able to do so. Now they are also the strongest pillars in the Demon Slayer Corps.

Even with the benefit of the musket, it undoubtedly shows that this person has the potential to become a pillar.

"Clear water."

Uesugi Nobu looked at Shimizu.

At this time, he has regained the composure that an excellent politician should have.

"Don't let your brother feel pain."

After saying this, Uesugi Nobu turned and walked out of the house. The police station had already cordoned off the place, and he, the mayor, had to come out to explain.

The cold knife light flashed, and the splashing blood turned into gray smoke and dissipated in mid-air.

Uesugi Shirakawa's body also began to disintegrate and disappeared amid wailing.

……

……

After sending Uesugi to the clinic for treatment.

Uesugi family.

Still on the tatami, still the same table.

Kneeling on three sides of the table were Shimizu, Fushigawa Miya and Uesugi Nobuyuki.

"Mr. Busikawa, thank you for your help. I think we father and son should have a good talk with you."

Uesugi Nobuyuki straightened his back, bowed to Busou Miyabi, and then placed the tea in front of Busou. His movements were meticulous, and one could vaguely see the demeanor of the Uesugi clan as a former noble family.

"Ah, that's great. I also want to talk to you about something."

Fushigi Miya's movements were somewhat casual. He was wearing a white haori, revealing his strong muscles, and drinking tea in a bold manner.

"Why did Baichuan... become like that? What on earth is going on?"

Uesugi Shin said sincerely.

"There are only a very small number of demons that can turn people into demons. Apart from the demon king Muzan, who is the source of demons, there are only six upper-rank demons. I was tracking down one of them, but I didn't expect it to be an upper-rank demon at the time."

Fushigawa Miya put the teacup on the table and said in a deep voice.

It shouldn't be Muzan, he has checked Fukui Village.

Although organs with high muscle tissue content, such as the heart, had been eaten away, there were still traces of sharp weapons such as swords on the corpse.

There are similar records of upper-rank demons in the remaining pages of ancestral texts left behind by the Demon Slayer Corps.

This should be because the upper-rank demon happened to be hungry when passing by there, so he directly picked a house.

The upper-rank demon has not changed for more than a hundred years.

According to the experiences of the past hundred years, even the Pillars do not have the strength to kill an Upper Moon alone.

Even though he was confident that his strength might not be inferior to that crappy Upper Rank, Muzukawa Miyabi still reported the news to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters through the Crow.

A hundred years ago, it took the combined strength of multiple pillars and a huge price to kill an upper-rank demon.

But if it were Muzan, even if the entire Demon Slayer Corps were assembled, they might not be able to win.

Uesugi Nobuyuki kept checking Fushigawa Sane's expression.

The other party did not hide his expression at all, and with Uesugi Nobuyuki's experience, he could probably guess some of Busui's inner thoughts.

"So he's a high-ranking ghost? Very troublesome?"

"It's not just as difficult as it sounds. The Demon Slayer Corps will probably need to mobilize a large number of high-level combat forces to have a hope of killing the upper-rank demons."

"I understand. My eldest son disappeared in Fukui Village the day before yesterday. He turned into a demon after that. I believe that the so-called upper-rank demon should still be near Konan Town. I will ask all the police in Konan Town to cooperate with Mr. Fuzugawa in the investigation, and mobilize the forces of the Uesugi clan to assist in the entire Koga area."

"Thank you. If you have any news, just tell the people at Fujiya. It's the yard with the most wisteria flowers planted here."

When Fuzugawa Miya said this, he turned his gaze to Shimizu.

"Are you interested in joining the Demon Slayer Corps?"

"I need to think about it."

Qingshui picked up the teacup and covered his face.

He didn't want to give up the Uesugi family's influence in the political arena.

If you can follow this path, you will definitely gain a lot of luck.

But the Demon Slayer Corps is also a system, with a complete system for upgrading from Aoi-level members to Pillars, as well as precious breathing techniques.
