I, Uchiha Hikaru, have joined the chat group.

Chapter 58 Uzui Tengen: Oh no, I've become a fake ninja!

Uchiha Hikaru didn't even dare to use his most proficient Fire Release technique.

Because they were afraid of accidentally destroying the mansion.

Although Sanemi Shinazugawa has a volatile temper, he is not stubborn. After realizing the huge difference in strength between the two sides, he returned to the field with the help of Kyojuro Rengoku and obediently bowed his head to admit defeat.

On the other side, Himejima Gyomei noticed a problem—

"Miss Uchiha, you said that the technique you just used... was it a ninjutsu?"

"Hmm, it's just basic ninja skills."

As Uchiha Hikaru said this, he briefly demonstrated his transformation technique, explaining that it was a basic ninjutsu that every ninja, even children still in school, would use.

—It's true, this is what the graduation exam for the Konoha Ninja Academy is about.

then……

After witnessing her perfectly transform from Shinobu Kocho to the nine Pillars present, eight Pillars, including Sanemi Shinazugawa, turned their gazes to the Sound Pillar, Tengen Uzui.

"No, why are you all looking at me like that..."

Uzui Tengen was a little flustered by her gaze: "Although I was a ninja before joining the Demon Slayer Corps, but... what school of ninja has such impressive basic skills?!"

"So-called ninjutsu is essentially just an illusion created using tools; it's not as miraculous as the legends claim. Even the simplest disguise requires meticulous makeup and tools... How could it possibly be done with just a clap of the hands! And to be able to change height and body shape at will? That's just too outrageous!"

"But we witnessed Uchiha Hikaru's ninjutsu with our own eyes."

Love Pillar Kanroji Mitsuri said very seriously, "I just went over and touched it, and I really can't see any flaws at all."

Is it possible...?

Obanai Iguro, the Serpent Pillar, pointed a finger at them and spoke coldly from beneath his scarf: "Is it because you, Mr. Uzui, are not skilled enough?"

"?"

Uzui Tengen couldn't hold back any longer.

In the end, it was Kagaya Ubuyashiki who stepped in and stopped the argument about "ninjas".

"Please be patient, everyone. Actually, Miss Guang's country is different from ours, so there's no need to continue arguing about this title."

"Since no one has any objections, then starting tomorrow, please take some time to teach Miss Guang the 'breathing method' as soon as possible."

Don't worry about the difficulty of the teaching, because Miss Hikari's learning talent may exceed all of your expectations. If you can take this opportunity to communicate and discuss with Miss Hikari more, it should be of great benefit.

After a pause, Kagaya Ubuyashiki looked at Hikaru Uchiha again: "Hikaru-san, you don't mind me saying this, do you?"

"……Um."

Uchiha Hikaru didn't care.

Her goal was to understand the effects of various "breathing techniques" and see if she could refine them and integrate them into her own combat system. This process might not be smooth sailing, and exchanging ideas with these experienced Pillars to learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses wouldn't be a bad thing.

just now……

Uchiha Hikaru was more curious about something else—

The Ubuyashiki family possesses a mysterious ability to foresee the future.

The successive lords were able to build such a large Demon Slayer Corps and fight against Muzan for nearly a thousand years largely because of this ability.

So...

Was their arrival, along with Bulma's, something the other party had anticipated?

This guess was quickly answered—

After dealing with Nezuko's matter in a manner similar to the original storyline, Kagaya Ubuyashiki invited Hikaru Uchiha and Bulma into the inner room, served them fragrant tea and snacks, and then politely invited them to taste them.

"Miss Hikari, your guess was correct. I did indeed predict your arrival and Miss Bulma's arrival several days ago."

"Furthermore, I also learned about what you've been doing these past few days through the Kasugai crows that accompany Tanjiro and the others. Although your actions were driven by personal motives, I still want to express my heartfelt gratitude to you on behalf of the Demon Slayer Corps."

With that, Kagaya Ubuyashiki stood up solemnly and bowed deeply.

"You're too kind."

Uchiha Hikaru nodded slightly in return.

On the other side, Kagaya Ubuyashiki knelt down again at the table:

"I once saw your clone use a special sword to fight demons, and it was able to effectively suppress their regenerative abilities, according to Kasugai-rabbit. I wonder what that was...?"

Uchiha Hikaru turned his head to look at Bulma.

Bulma scratched her head: "You mean the laser sword? That's a beam weapon I invented."

"So, Miss Bulma, are you interested in selling that weapon? If so, I'm willing to pay any price—money, jewels, or anything else."

"Well... I'm from a wealthy family, so money doesn't matter to me."

Bulma paused, then said, "But if you want them, I can give you two. Anyway, these weapons are made to fight demons, so they're not really of any use to me."

Kagaya Ubuyashiki was a little confused: "Ms. Bulma, your generosity is touching, but... please forgive me for not being able to accept such an expensive gift."

"..."

Such a scene is quite rare.

One side wants to give away the laser sword for free, while the other doesn't want to take it for free.

Bulma looked a little embarrassed.

Uchiha Hikaru sighed and offered a suggestion: "I think the crows the Demon Slayer Corps keeps are quite intelligent. How about we get a few cages of them? We can also exchange them for handicrafts from this era, interesting little toys... or things related to mythology or legends that possess some kind of mysterious power."

Upon closer examination, the Demon Slayer world actually contains mystical forces.

For example, this world has a very clear system of reincarnation.

For example, the Ubuyashiki family's precognitive abilities and curses, and Yoriichi Tsugikuni's innate extraordinary talent... all bear the shadow of some inexplicable and mysterious power. Especially the curse, which can be alleviated through marriage with a priestly family, further illustrates this point.

Even the very fact that Muzan Kibutsuji was born a thousand years ago is quite bizarre. If he hadn't killed that doctor during a medical dispute, it's hard to say how the world would have turned out.

and so……

What kind of beings are the gods in the Demon Slayer world?

Is it because certain rules restrict one from interfering too much in the real world, and one can only bestow some favors; or is one simply a pleasure-seeker who only wants to sit in the sky and watch the show?

Do legends about things like the Three Sacred Treasures actually exist?

Uchiha Hikaru was very curious.

"Objects related to myths and legends...?"

Kagaya Ubuyashiki pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Alright, I will put together a list as soon as possible for you two to review."
