You didn't expect this, did you? I've time-traveled again!

Although his original intention was not to seek anything in return.

"However, I have another question. Could you please answer it, Mr. Suoh?"

Kagaya Ubuyashiki spoke up again, asking, "Why did Yoriichi Tsugikuni choose to pass on the Sun Breathing Technique to Tanjiro's ancestor instead of the Tsugikuni family?"

This question has also raised doubts among many people.

It is human nature to leave great power to future generations; there is no reason to pass it on to an outsider.

This is indeed very strange.

"I think it's to protect their descendants and leave behind the last spark for the future to eradicate Muzan Kibutsuji."

Suoh Takeshi sighed, "You understand, this is a way of protecting future generations and passing on skills."

"I see."

Kagaya Ubuyashiki also considered this, but he was not quite sure, which is why he raised this question.

After all, there might be other reasons, and it's not impossible.

Kagaya Ubuyashiki added, "Suoh-kun really knows a lot of secrets."

"Little by little, just a little bit."

Suoh Takeshi chuckled, his right hand held in front of his chest, his thumb and forefinger pinched together with a tiny gap between them. "What I know is only a tiny bit more than what you guys know."

Chapter 027 Intelligence and Trade

Just take those words with a grain of salt.

Anyone who takes it seriously is a fool.

No one believed what Suoh Takeshi said, taking it as just a humble statement.

"Ahem, Suoh-kun, how should we thank you for helping the Demon Slayer Corps so much?"

"Didn't I say before that I want to learn the Sun Breathing Technique?"

However, Suoh Takeshi thought for a moment and said, "But it's not just the Sun Breathing Technique; I want to learn all the existing breathing techniques!"

Upon hearing Suoh Takeshi's words, Ubuyashiki Kagaya frowned slightly, "This..."

It wasn't that he couldn't bear to part with it, but that he couldn't make the decision.

It doesn't matter if there are only the five basic breathing techniques, but some special derivative breathing techniques are not so good.

Those special derivative breathing techniques are the private domain of the pillar-level team members, and he cannot arbitrarily decide on them.

He was caught in a dilemma for a moment.

Suoh Takeshi, fearing he might refuse, quickly said, "Don't rush to refuse, I can raise the stakes."

He has leverage to get those pillar-level players to agree.

"Add to the bet?"

"intelligence!"

Suoh Takeshi said confidently, "I can tell you information about Muzan Kibutsuji, and not only that, but also information and locations of the two Upper Moons. How about that?"

Another bombshell!

With a loud bang!

The impact left everyone dizzy and disoriented!

"Kibutsuji Muzan... Is the news about Kibutsuji Muzan true? Is it true?!"

"Quickly tell this magnificent old man!"

"If you just tell us, you'll be our good friend!"

"Speak, speak quickly!"

Sanemi Shinazugawa, even more enraged, charged forward and roared:

"Whether it's the Sun Breathing Technique or my Wind Breathing Technique, take it if you want! Now tell me information about Muzan Kibutsuji, I absolutely, absolutely want to kill him with my own hands!"

Sanemi Shinazugawa's words truly resonated with the Pillars.

May I ask you this: 'Who among you here doesn't have a grudge against Muzan Kibutsuji, and who doesn't want to kill him with their own hands?'

Oh, wait, there really is one.

Aside from the Love Pillar, Mitsuri Kanroji, she joined the Demon Slayer Corps purely because she wanted to find a husband stronger than her.

But that's not a problem. She would never refuse if Kagaya Ubuyashiki asked.

After hearing their expressions, Suoh Takeshi smiled discreetly, a smile of satisfaction.

Everything unfolded exactly as he had predicted.

The Pillars wished they could tear Muzan Kibutsuji apart, boil him in oil, and condemn him to eternal damnation. If they could obtain information about Muzan Kibutsuji and personally punish him, they would be willing to pay any price!

Actually, it's not entirely their fault that they're acting impulsively.

Having failed to catch Muzan Kibutsuji for a thousand years, how could they remain calm and anxious after hearing that Suoh Takeshi had definite news?

The atmosphere among the pillars was incredibly high, even more exciting than finding the Breathing Technique of the Sun!

Seeing the Pillars' excitement, Kagaya Ubuyashiki knew he couldn't dampen their morale at this moment, so he smiled wryly and said, "It seems I have no choice but to agree."

Although he was able to rely on his long-accumulated prestige to force the other pillars not to exchange with Suoh Takeshi.

But this would discourage the other pillars, which was something he didn't want to see.

He was also interested in making an exchange, but he didn't know how to bring it up, which was the main problem.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be so conflicted; he could have just refused outright.

He was willing to pay the price for his long-cherished wish!

The Pillars also harbored intense hatred for Muzan Kibutsuji, and were even willing to exchange their own Breathing Techniques with Takeru Suoh.

This gave him a way out.

"I must say it again, Suoh-kun really knows a lot of secrets."

Suoh Takeshi chuckled again, pinching his thumb and forefinger together, leaving a tiny gap, "A tiny bit, a tiny bit."

"Suoh-senpai..."

Even the thick-skinned Tanjiro Kamado was at a loss for words when it came to what Suoh Takeshi would say.

It's so annoying.

However, Kagaya Ubuyashiki, on behalf of the Demon Slayer Corps and the Pillars, agreed to Takeshi Suo's request for a deal.

"However, I have another question. Sun Breathing is the origin of all breathing techniques, so why do we need to learn other breathing techniques?"

Kagaya Ubuyashiki did not understand the significance of the conditions proposed by Takeshi Suoh. "Knowing too many breathing techniques will only hinder your progress if you are not proficient in any of them. I hope you can understand this principle."

"Don't bite off more than you can chew..."

Suoh Takeshi smiled slightly and said, "I'm just looking for a breathing method that suits me. As the saying goes, the strongest is not necessarily the most suitable, but the most suitable is relatively the strongest."

"So, I wonder if the head of the Ubuyashiki family understands?"

"Been taught a lesson."

Kagaya Ubuyashiki is, after all, the heir to a large family, and he can understand the reasoning after a little thought.

"Of course, this statement also applies to you!"

Suoh Takeru loudly addressed the pillars below, "The Breathing of the Sun is indeed very powerful, but it's not actually suitable for all of you! It's all because of this... never mind, that's not what you're most concerned about right now."

Although Suoh Takeshi wanted to show off his knowledge again, everyone present, including Kamado Tanjiro, had their minds elsewhere.

They stared intently at Suoh Takeshi, their greatest desire being to hear news about Kibutsuji Muzan.

"Then, I'll tell you what you most want to know..."

After gathering his thoughts, he slowly began to speak, "Muzan Kibutsuji is the progenitor of demons. I believe you already know how he became a demon, so I will focus on his abilities."

"First of all, any information about Muzan Kibutsuji's appearance is inaccurate!"

He can change his appearance at will, sometimes as a man, sometimes as a woman, sometimes as an adult, sometimes as a child, his true form is unknown and his appearance is not fixed.

However, Tanjiro has a very keen sense of smell and can detect Muzan Kibutsuji's scent.

Naturally, given his ability to alter his physical body, he primarily relies on this ability to fight enemies.

This is very important, you must pay attention to it!

Secondly, as the progenitor of demons, he has absolute control over demons.

He can control the life and death of any ghost from a great distance, can place restrictions on them and know their inner thoughts, and can also see the scene before death through the eyes of other ghosts.

And most importantly...

Muzan Kibutsuji's physical structure is also different from that of ordinary people, possessing 5 brains and 7 hearts.

Moreover, he had already surpassed the limit, so even if he were beheaded by the Nichirin Blade, he would not die!

In other words, only the sun can kill him!

Suoh Takeshi explained in detail the three abilities of Kibutsuji Muzan: perfect mimicry, blood curse, and breaking limits, urging them to pay attention.

Suoh Takeshi's words weighed heavily on everyone's hearts once again, and their contempt vanished in an instant.

"So that means... even if you learn the Breathing of the Sun, you still can't kill Muzan Kibutsuji?"

"Tsk."

"hateful!"

They were about to obtain the Sun Breathing Technique that they had been longing for, and they thought they could use it to easily defeat Muzan Kibutsuji. However, it did not play the role they expected, which made them feel uneasy.

"Don't despair. The Breathing of the Sun technique may not be able to kill Muzan Kibutsuji, but it can cause him great damage."
