Monster Hunter Gathering

Kazuma began to whisper with Xuanya, and... notified Nie Chiwu and Erqiao on the assembly channel.

At this moment, after learning about He Zhen's plan, Nie Chiwu and Erqiao realized that the time to decide the winner had come.

"understood!"

Nie Chiwu stood up without hesitation: "It's time for me to show up!"

"Kokushibo! Come here!!!"

Nie Chiwu raised his voice and rushed towards Kokushibo.

"!"

The others were unaware of the private communication between the hunters, and were shocked to see Nie Chiwu suddenly change his fighting style.

Tanjiro thought that Nie Chiwu might use the same method he used in his previous battle with Akaza, wanting to use his body to create opportunities for others to attack.

Although he felt a little reluctant, Tanjiro still focused his attention and prepared to face the opportunity to kill Kokushibo.

Before coming here, Jotaro had already told Tanjiro some knowledge about the red sword, the markings, and the transparent world.

Tanjiro doesn't know whether he can really master the transparent world, but now someone has expectations of him, and he must respond to this expectation.

"!"

After seeing Nie Chiwu's actions, Kokushibo was a little confused and angry.

Nie Chiwu began to provoke him again, forcing Kokushibo to be alert, wondering if the other party had come up with some conspiracy that he didn't understand.

"Thump, thump, thump~" After knowing that Kazuma and Xuanya were already prepared, Nie Chiwu didn't care about anything else and started beating in front of Kokushibo...

He put on a golden dress.

"Kuroshibo! You... come here!!!" After Nie Chiwu put on the golden clothes, he rushed directly towards Kokushibo.

"You...damn guy!"

Hearing Nie Chiwu's provocation, Kokushibo raised his sword, wanting to kill Nie Chiwu who was approaching him.

Kokushibo dodged the attacks of others and used almost all his strength to unleash his exquisite sword skills against Nie Chiwu.

In the transparent world, Kokushibo could clearly see that Nie Chiwu didn't dodge at all. His sword could directly cut Nie Chiwu in half from the middle of his face. He should have no way to avoid it...

That's how it should be.

However, when his attack was almost approaching the opponent's forehead, a golden light flashed, and Nie Chiwu's body rolled strangely without any warning, causing Kokushibo's slash to completely miss.

However, Kokushibo did not see any sign of Nie Chiwu dodging in the transparent world.

"This is impossible!!!" Kokushibo roared and launched another full-strength attack at Nie Chiwu. This time, he slashed across Nie Chiwu's body, trying to cut him in half.

But in the same way, when Kokushibo's attack approached Nie Chiwu's body, golden light once again emerged from Nie Chiwu's body and he dodged Kokushibo's attack.

[Turning Clothes: Allows the hunter to quickly turn around and counterattack after dodging an enemy attack, thereby increasing combat flexibility and efficiency. The duration is consumed to dodge attacks.]

"Is this the extent of my full-strength swordsmanship?" Nie Chiwu mocked loudly, "No wonder you're only capable of this! Can you keep up with my dodging speed?"

At this moment, Nie Chiwu had turned around and appeared in front of Kokushibo. The red blade of his sword was shining brightly, announcing Nie Chiwu's next attack.

“I absolutely do not admit it!!!”

Kokushibo, who had no way to deal with Nie Chiwu and couldn't even see how the other party dodged, looked even more crazy at this moment. The veins on his arms bulged as he wanted to kill Nie Chiwu on the spot.

However, although the third full-strength sword technique destroyed a large area of ​​the ground, it still failed in front of Nie Chiwu.

Nie Chiwu even aimed at Kokushibo, struck a thrusting stance, and laughed, "Thank you for using all the powerful sword techniques I used... Now, here's my response!"

“Ding, ding, ding, ding!”

Nie Chiwu took a step forward and stepped on Kokushibo's sword that was still on the ground. The sword pierced Kokushibo's body directly. After using the momentum, Nie Chiwu's body jumped high into the air: "Sure kill! Ascending Dragon Sword!"

"Ah!" Kokushibo's pupils widened as he looked at Nie Chiwu who jumped up by stepping on his body. Feeling threatened, he instinctively and angrily wanted to raise his knife to block Nie Chiwu's attack.

At this moment, on Nie Chiwu's sword, the red blade produced by the air blade flashed because of the attack, and a brilliant blade light was drawn with a sharp blade light.

"cut------!!!!"

The sword light produced at that moment cut off Kokushibo's weapon, broke the blade on Kokushibo's body, and cut Kokushibo's body. A sharp light stretched from top to bottom, beautiful and deadly.

Kokushibo didn't see clearly the trace of the falling knife. His eyes, which could clearly see all of Nie Chiwu's movements before, were of no use at all in the face of this blow.

"Without the Nichirin Sword... you will never be able to kill me!!!" Kokushibo, who was defeated head-on by this blow, let out an unwilling roar.

But what he got was Nie Chiwu's response: "Old fool, I told you everything..."

"It wasn't me who killed you in the end."

Chapter 48: Kokushibo - The Defeat is Complete

"Do it!!!"

Nie Chiwu's voice exploded after responding to Upper Rank One.

At this moment, Kokushibo, who was almost cut in half by Nie Chiwu's air blade, began to release his blood demon art on a large scale, using the blades that emerged from his body to release crescent-shaped slashes, preparing to buy himself time to recover.

But the next moment, a hook hooked on his shoulder. When Kokushibo looked in the direction of the hook, he immediately saw Jotaro's body flying towards him with the energy that was deadly to demons.

Facing the flying crescent-shaped slashes, Jotaro blocked the attacks with the shield in her right hand, and used her body to force a passage through the slashes, approaching Kokushibo's body.

Kokushibo's inner warning was strong, and he knew that he could not let Jotaro get close to him with that transferable energy. No matter what, he had to kill him or knock him away before he got close.

But... when Kokushibo was about to raise his arm, he inexplicably felt something was wrong with his hand.

The knife he was holding was covered with a thick layer of ice crystals at some point, preventing it from swinging directly.

In just this short period of time, Jotaro caught the grappling hook and came to Kokushibo's side. She began to breathe, and raised the shield in her right hand high, with rich ripple energy on it, as if... she was ready to melt Kokushibo's entire head.

But Kokushibo clearly saw all of Qiao's movements. Even at such a close distance, he could clearly see the blood flowing through Qiao's body...

That power flowed from every cell in Er Qiao's body, finally flowing through the blood to the tips of her limbs, and finally condensed on her shield...

But... maybe the opponent really has the attack ability to kill me, but his movements are still too slow.

The blade formed by the blood demon art from Kokushibo's shoulder released a crescent-shaped slash at Jotaro's arm at close range, cutting off Jotaro's right hand, which was condensed with ripple power, directly from her shoulder.

Jotaro endured the discomfort of a broken arm and raised her leg again to launch a ripple attack, but Kokushibo had already cut off Jotaro's leg and other arm the moment she was about to act, forcing Jotaro to fall downwards without support.

With just one more attack, he could chop off the brain of this tall foreigner, rendering these guys' recovery abilities useless and completely killing one of them.

Kokushibo was thinking so, and was ready to get rid of Jotaro before anyone else attacked. However, when Kokushibo lowered his eyes to look at the falling Jotaro, he saw a figure wearing a green cloak who was much shorter than Jotaro standing at his feet.

That was Kazuma... Just now, he took advantage of his small stature to sneak up and grab Jotaro's back, using Jotaro as a shield to break through the slash and came in front of Kokushibo.

But... Kokushibo didn't know this.

"!"

Kokushibo's pupils dilated instantly.

Who is this?

Why was he able to come to my side?

How did he get here?

when?

why?

Why didn’t I find him in the transparent world?

What does he want to do?

The huge fear brought by the unknown at that moment made Kokushibo want to drag his body, which had not yet fully recovered, to escape from the short Kazuma who suddenly appeared in front of him.

But at this moment a gunshot was heard.

The moment Kazuma showed up, Xuanya fired as he and Kazuma had just planned.

The controlled bullet bypassed Kokushibo's attack and shot into Kokushibo's legs, quickly taking root and piercing into the ground, firmly nailing Kokushibo's actions in place.

"Stop the other party's actions..." Xuan Mi swallowed his saliva and nervously recalled what Kazuma had just taught him: "Observe the environment and terrain carefully..."

Xuan Mi raised his hand and used the blood demon art that had been strengthened by forcibly consuming the flesh and blood of three upper-rank demons to release the blood demon art again at the bullet he had just fired: "Use every ability you can use!"

A large number of ice crystals and blade spikes suddenly emerged from the tree created by the bullet, spreading among Kokushibo's flesh and blood, nailing Kokushibo more firmly to the ground, and absorbing Kokushibo's blood to grow rapidly.

Kazuma, who took the initiative to break out of stealth in front of Kokushibo, raised his hand towards Kokushibo and splashed water on his face.

Kokushibo originally wanted to escape, but the fear of Kazuma in his heart turned into murderous intent in an instant. However, before Kokushibo could move, he saw Kazuma's lips move slightly, and his outstretched hand released another magic without even moving.

"Freeze!"

The thick layer of ice that was so thick that it was impossible for light to penetrate froze Kokushibo's entire head.

In an instant, the ice layer formed by magic froze Kokushibo's head without any warning, and he lost his vision, hearing and other senses in an instant.

Thinking about the monsters surrounding him, the word "death" appeared clearly in Kokushibo's mind.

This fear forced Kokushibo to unleash his blood demon art with all his might, slashing at everything around him in order to gain a glimmer of hope for his own survival.

Kokushibo could neither see nor hear what was happening outside. His feet were bound by Xuanya's blood demon technique and he could not move. The ice on his head was extremely hard and difficult to break for a while. Kokushibo could only block all his life forces until his blood demon technique could block it.

In the darkness, the only senses he could feel were touch and pain. This feeling became more and more sensitive at all times, and he could even hardly perceive time... Kokushibo could even feel the wind passing through his skin.

It was with this feeling that the blade, as hot as the sun, broke through the slashes and pierced into his body.

It's the Sun Blade.

Kokushibo made this judgment while in pain.

Is it the Wind Pillar, Muichiro, or Tanjiro?

The knife that had pierced his body seemed to have no remaining strength and did not move again, but it burned Kokushibo's internal organs as fiercely as sunlight, causing him to suffer extreme pain. He waved the arm holding the knife to drive away the person who hurt him.

The second attack came soon, and the huge chain ball hit Kokushibo's back, with the momentum to smash Kokushibo's body into pieces, and it was also as hot as the sun.

Then came the third time, the fourth time...

There were constant attacks that broke through his blood demon art, and finally even the arm that wielded the sword was cut off by someone, and it was unable to grow back.

With his arms chopped off, his chest and abdomen cut open, his legs trapped, and his head frozen, Kokushibo realized that he might really face death.

He didn't want to die, but he had used all the methods he could.

Blood demon technique, breathing technique, demon body... At this moment, Kokushibo is at his wit's end.

And in the next moment, Kokushibo's frozen eyes suddenly saw a dazzling light breaking through the ice.

Along with the huge impact he felt on his body, he saw the recovered Qiao sister smashing the ice with the shield in her hand.

But just when Kokushibo thought that Jotaro was going to give him the final blow, Jotaro's figure disappeared from the gap, and was replaced by Tanjiro, who looked very similar to Yoriichi.

With a similar expression of pity as when Yoshiichiro saw him before his death... Tanjiro swung his sword without hesitation and cut off Kokushibo's head.

"Breath of the Sun..."

"What a beautiful sword..."

Chapter 49: Let’s save the so-called touching moments for the perfect ending! ! ! !

Seeing that Tanjiro successfully cut off Kokushibo's head, the members of the Demon Slayer Corps were suddenly excited, but Jotaro held her breath and launched another ripple attack on Kokushibo's body to prevent the opponent from overcoming the weakness of his neck.

After seeing Kokushibo's head slowly disappear, Jotaro finally felt relieved.

"It's finally over! This guy is really troublesome! Damn...Kaz is definitely more troublesome than this!" Er Qiao collapsed to the ground, trying to recover his strength as much as possible, and then quickly drank a bottle of recovery medicine.

This bottle of recovery medicine is not for Er Qiao herself, but for others.

At this moment, everyone had suffered heavy losses in the fierce attack just now.

Muichiro had his waist and arms cut off, the Wind Pillar had half of his body and half of his cheek chopped off, and Uzui Tengen had his legs broken and his stomach cut open, with his internal organs almost flowing out.

The only ones who were in better condition were Beimingyu, who had a few slash wounds but no limbs were mutilated, Xuanya, and Tanjiro.

Xuanya was the farthest away and was not affected by the attack because of Kazuma's advance warning.

And Tanjiro... was protected by Nie Chiwu's body in order to allow him to kill Kokushibo.

This also resulted in Nie Chiwu being slashed dozens of times on the back and dying instantly.

As for Kazuma...

"Mr. Kazuma!" Xuan Mi shouted with some grief and anger.
