People in Demon Slayer: The Journey That Began with Demon Slayer

With the power of the Transparent World and the Crimson Blade, Hantengu's neck finally couldn't withstand the force of Tanjiro and the others' slashes and was completely severed.

The six severed heads of the half-dead dog fell from mid-air, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Chapter 140 The Death of the Third Upper Moon

The death of Hantengu cast a shadow over Doma and Nakime.

Only by cooperating with each other could the three demons barely hold off the demon-slaying swordsmen who had activated their markings.

According to the original plan, the striped swordsmen are, after all, human. Even if they gain unparalleled power by activating their stripes, they will eventually run out of energy. As long as they can drag out the time, victory will still belong to them.

However, Hantengu was careless. He was usually a timid, crybaby, and extremely negative thinker, but after gaining new power, he became so impulsive that he was beheaded by the three little devils.

Now that balance has been completely broken, Doma and Nakime feel incredibly overwhelmed by the demon slayers who have activated their markings.

"Blood Demon Art? Withered Garden, Snowfall!"

Sitting in the ice crystal lotus, Doma waved his fans, unleashing a barrage of frost-infused attacks that struck Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke, who were currently exhausted.

"Water Breathing? Eleventh Form? M!"

Giyu Tomioka arrived just in time to Tanjiro and the others, using his unique technique to nullify all frost attacks that entered his attack range.

"Sound Breathing? Form of Five? Let the Strings Resound!"

Yu Tianyuan swung the spinning blade with one hand, attacking Tongma.

Several ice walls instantly appeared in front of Doma to block Yu Tianyuan's attack.

When Yu Tianyuan's blade touched the ice wall, a huge explosion occurred, and dust and mist immediately rose up.

Amidst the dust and mist, Nakime plucked the strings of her biwa, and countless eyes on the biwa fired laser-like attacks, piercing through the dust and mist and hurtling towards the group.

Everyone used their breathing techniques and sword forms to defend against Nakime's attacks.

With increased vigilance, Doma and Nakime continued their flanking maneuvers, constantly expending everyone's strength.

Despite having already killed Bantian Gou, the situation remained deadlocked.

Nakime continuously boosted Doma's Blood Demon Art to extreme speed and fired lasers to disrupt the crowd.

Because as long as they can drag the battle out until Muzan and the God King finish their fight, victory will still belong to them.

Kyojuro Rengoku and Osamu worked together, unleashing a violent fire tornado and countless missiles at Nakime and Doma.

Doma used his Blood Demon Art again, creating an ice wall in front of himself and Nakime to block the attack.

However, when Douma was halfway through building his ice wall, it failed and dissipated into the air as ice shards.

Doma and Nakime looked pained and incredulous, because they felt that their bodies had undergone unknown changes.

"It finally worked!" Shinobu Kocho was overjoyed when she saw the expressions on Doma and Nakime's faces.

"Before the battle began, everyone here coated their Nichirin Blades with wisteria venom at a lethal dose of more than 700 times. The more you use your abilities, the faster the toxin will corrode your weapons!"

Doma and Nakime, having been poisoned by wisteria venom, were unable to maintain their original forms.

The ice crystal lotus seat beneath Doma's feet began to shatter, and the phantom image of Buddha that appeared behind him gradually dissipated.

The same was true for Nakime; the blood in her hand, which had coalesced into a crimson lute as red as blood and filled with eyes, also turned into a pool of blood.

Doma wanted to use Blood Demon Art, but instead exacerbated the corrosive effects of the toxins in his body, causing the right side of his body to gradually corrode into a thick liquid.

"Everyone! Before they can neutralize the poison, cut off their heads!"

Kanae Butterfly, having awakened her Crimson Eyes, observed that Doma and Nakime's festering and corroded flesh was gradually repairing and healing, indicating that they were overcoming these toxins.

Giyu Tomioka, who was closest to Nakime, launched the first attack.

"Water Breathing? Seventh Form? ~Ripple Strike!"

Of the ten sword techniques in Water Breathing, the fastest thrusting technique comes from a slope and involves a straight thrust of the sword, just like ripples on the surface of water, directly piercing through Nakime's body.

"The breath of insects? The dance of bee fangs? How exquisite!"

Shinobu Kocho, in coordination with Giyu Tomioka, unexpectedly swung her Nichirin Blade at Nakime's neck.

With her movements restricted and her own strength already weak, Nakime was instantly decapitated.

Nakime was killed, and now only Doma remains of the Twelve Demon Moons.

"Breath of Rock? Second Form? Sky Shattered!"

After securing himself to the chains, Kyōmei Himejima swung his meteor hammer at Dōma's head.

Despite the pain from the wisteria flower poison, Doma managed to turn his head to the side, barely avoiding having his head smashed by the meteor hammer. However, half of Doma's body was still smashed.

"Wind Breathing? Eighth Form? First Fierce Wind Slash!"

"Serpent's Breath? Third Form? Nest Sting!"

Sanemi Shinazugawa and Obanai Iguro worked together, their two Nichirin Blades aimed straight at Doma's neck.

However, when the blade of the Nichirin Blade touched Doma's neck, it did not sever Doma's neck, but instead produced a crisp sound of metal clashing.

It turns out that the skin on Doma's neck was covered with a protective layer of ice crystals as hard as steel.

Sanemi Shinazugawa and Obanai Iguro used all their strength, but could only manage to cut in a little bit.

"Plain Flow Technique? Destruction Kill? Annihilation Style!"

Osamu unleashed a devastating punch, slamming it hard into the back of Obanai Iguro's Nichirin Blade.

"Breath of Flames? Fifth Form? Flame Tiger!"

Following Osamu's example, Rengoku Kyojuro unleashed a blazing attack, like a fiery tiger about to seize its prey, forcefully slashing at the back of Shinazugawa Sanemi's Nichirin Blade.

Kyojuro Rengoku's breathing technique, with its blazing flames, softened the ice crystals on Doma's neck, making them less hard as iron.

Combined with the powerful impact of the attack, the ice crystals clinging to Doma's neck shattered, and the three Nichirin Blades sliced ​​through Doma's neck, severing it.

"It...it was a success!?"

Inosuke and Zenitsu rubbed their eyes in disbelief. Had the three powerful Upper Moons really been killed?

Nakime and Hantengu's bodies had turned to ashes and disappeared into the sky.

Then Doma's head fell to the ground.

Despite being on the verge of death, Doma burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, so this is the fear of death? How wonderful! I don't want to die yet, I want to experience more emotions!"

Suddenly, Doma's headless body stood up, and the bowl-sized wound on his neck began to writhe, and a head began to grow back.

Katsutoshi Tsugikuni shouted to Tanjiro, "Tanjiro! It has broken through its limit and is using Sun Breathing! Only your Sun Breathing can completely destroy it!"

Tanjiro, with his injured shoulder and exhausted body, felt a burning pain in his lungs.

Tanjiro, relying on his willpower, struggled to get up from the ground.

"I must break this chain of sin!"

"Hinokami Kagura: Flame Dance!"

A flash of scorching flame, and Doma's newly grown neck was severed once again.

"Damn it! Damn it! I haven't failed yet, I want to live... to live!"

However, the flames of the Sun Breathing of Flames, like maggots clinging to bones, spread to Doma's entire body, burning continuously until he turned to ashes.

Chapter 141 Bonds

The deaths of Doma, Nakime, and Hantengu finally gave everyone a moment to catch their breath.

Tanjiro, Zenitsu, Inosuke, Sanemi Shinazugawa, and Ulten Genji were all severely injured, and their strength was greatly reduced.

Even with the healing from Shinobu and Kanae, the current situation is only a drop in the ocean, because their greatest enemy, Muzan Kibutsuji, has not yet been defeated.

Faced with the combined attack of Kibuyaku Muzan and the God Lord, Yosuke was struggling to defend himself.

Yosuke's upper body was completely destroyed in the battle, and his exposed body was covered with wounds.

To break the power of the Word of Power, Yosuke needs to exchange his heart for the system's special power.

However, since Yosuke was trapped in the black coffin, he has lost contact with the system, which makes him very passive in battle, only able to passively resist the attacks of Kibuyaku Muzan and the God Lord.

Kibuy Muzan noticed the deaths of Doma, Nakime, and Hantengu, and frowned: "Even giving them power couldn't kill them. What a bunch of useless trash!"

Kibuy's distraction gave Yosuke an opportunity.

"Blood Breathing? Fifth Form? Blood Flash!"

Yosuke teleported in front of Kibu Muzan, and mercilessly slashed at Kibu Muzan's neck with the blood-stained blade in his hand.

"Words of power? Rejected!"

The moment Kibuy Muzan came to his senses, he used his Word of Power to repel Yosuke.

Yosuke, who was sent flying backward, was blasted into the wall.

"master!"

"Mr. Yosuke (sir)!"

Seeing how hard Yosuke was fighting, the group, who had just defeated the Twelve Demon Moons, disregarded their own strength and launched an attack on Kibuyaku Muzan and the God Lord.

Yosuke, who had just gotten back to his feet from inside the wall, saw the crowd rushing towards him recklessly and hurriedly tried to stop them, shouting, "Don't come any closer!"

But Yosuke was still a step too late.

"Words of Power? Force!"

The deity teleported in front of everyone, suppressing them with a terrifying gravity.

The God's cold gaze swept over everyone: "Those of you who deserve to die, it's time for you to accept your fate. Kibu Muzan, kill them!"

Kibuy Muzan was somewhat annoyed by the God's orders: "You're such a nuisance if you can't kill anyone! But I'm happy to let them die!"

Kibuy Muzan used the whip on his body to stab at the crowd at an extremely fast speed.

Suppressed by gravity, the crowd could only watch helplessly as Muzan's whip was about to pierce them.

Yosuke used his fastest speed to try and stop this tragedy from happening.
