Tom Cat breaks through the dimensional wall.

Turn your head and look around.

The sea is blue and the sky is blue. The cruise ship has left the dock and is cutting through the waves, gradually accelerating towards the ocean.

Everyone on the deck looked normal, and no one seemed to notice anything unusual.

For some, this might be their first time sailing on a luxury cruise ship, and the excitement has not yet worn off. They gather in groups of two or three with familiar companions and chat loudly.

Some upper-class people in suits and ties have already started returning to the cabin.

Although each person exudes different emotions, they are indeed normal human beings.

It was as if the scent of the demon that Tanjiro had just smelled was just an illusion.

"Master Tom, Mr. Tomioka!"

Tanjiro looked at the two pillars beside him nervously.

After seeing Giyu Tomioka and Tang Mu lying on his shoulder, my originally nervous mood instantly relaxed a lot.

Before setting off, Tanjiro had already learned about this mission in detail.

It is clear that the enemies he is about to face will be evil demons at the level of the Twelve Demon Moons.

The battle scene with the Lower Moon Five at Nagegumi Mountain is still vivid in Tanjiro's mind, and he is really worried whether he has the ability to protect the passengers on this ship from the attack of the evil spirits.

Fortunately, Tom and Giyu Tomioka are also here, which makes Tanjiro feel very safe.

Although Tanjiro didn't say everything, Giyu Tomioka and Tommu knew what he wanted to express.

"You're not mistaken. A ghost did appear just now. But we can't be sure how many ghosts there are on this cruise ship, so we can't alert them for now. Let's proceed as planned. The five of us have good perception abilities, so it will be no problem for each of us to be responsible for patrolling an area."

"Since the evil spirits chose to lurk on this cruise ship, they must want to eat people. The best time is when the cruise ship enters the US port. We don't have to worry about them lurking and not taking action."

Tang Mu narrowed his eyes and jumped down from Tomioka Giyu's shoulder. "Leave the top two decks to me. That's where the rich people move around. If you patrol there on a daily basis, you'll attract a lot of attention. As a cat, I can move more stealthily."

At the same time, in a room on the cruise ship, a beautiful black-haired woman in a kimono was combing her hair gently in front of a dressing mirror.

Behind her stood a man with medium-length black hair wearing a black suit and looking feminine.

"Daki-sama, we will arrive in the United States in about a month. Do you have any instructions for me to do in the meantime?"

The man with a neutral voice and two rows of yellow squares on his cheeks spoke respectfully.

He was not in disguise at this time. From the Lower Moon One in his eyes, it could be seen that he was not a human being, but a genuine Twelve Demon Moons.

This Lower-Rank demon is named Nightmare, and is the only surviving Lower-Rank demon currently.

Some time ago, because of the death of the Lower Five Spider Demon, Rui, of Nandazome Mountain, the moody Muzan Kibutsuji no longer trusted the strength of all the Lower Demons, so he took action to wipe out all the Lower Demons he had trained.

Only Nightmare was spared because his personality was more to Muzan's liking.

He was also given more demon blood by Muzan, making his strength stronger than before.

"This trip to America is to find the Blue Beyond for Master Muzan. According to Master Muzan's order, I am the last upper-rank officer sent to America. From now on, this cruise ship is yours. You can do whatever you want with the people on the ship, but be careful, you have to leave the beautiful people for me to eat."

"Also, those bugs from the Demon Slayer Corps seem to have come to this ship as well. Get rid of them as soon as possible. There's only one pillar and three ordinary Demon Slayer swordsmen. You should be fine, right? Especially the guy with red hair and brand earrings."

Daji was dressing herself up in front of the mirror without even glancing at Nightmare behind her.

As an Upper Six, she has this kind of pride and capital.

"I won't let you down, Lady Daki."

Nightmare placed his right hand on his chest, bowed slightly to Daki, and his body slowly sank into the floor and disappeared.

"Why didn't you tell him about the cat that Master Muzan told you about?"

A hoarse voice sounded in Daki's heart.

"You don't have to tell him everything. Besides, I'm also very interested in that cat. It's not a threat. But according to Master Muzan's speculation, that cat is only at the level of a pillar at most. A mere pillar, aren't you and my brother hungry enough?"

"If that cat is pretty and cute enough, I'd like to see if I can turn it into a ghost and make it my pet."

Daki looked at her beautiful self in the mirror with a confident smile on her face.

"If you like it, I will definitely help you catch it."

The hoarse voice gradually faded away.

At the same time, there was a knock on the door of the luxurious suite: "Ms. Fern, the banquet is about to begin."

Hearing this, Daki, who went by the alias of Fern Princess, put away all the expressions on her face, and walked slowly towards the door in her wooden clogs with a cold and arrogant look.

When the door opened, the men waiting outside were immediately mesmerized by Daki's beauty and were speechless.

It took them a long while to react, and they all rushed forward to show their courtesy to Duji.

Not only Japanese men, but even the men from Europe and America on the cruise ship who claimed to be gentlemen could not control their emotions after seeing Daki's magical beauty.

In a short time, without saying a word, Daki became the center of the entire banquet.

Countless men surrounded her, each behaving extremely inappropriately.

In the corner of the banquet, those female companions who were treated coldly looked at Daki's appearance and became jealous to the point of going crazy.

"Really? Where did this woman come from? She stole all the limelight."

One of the women in a dress looked at her fiancé who was attracted away, stomped her feet unhappily, and turned to leave the banquet hall.

She was going to the bathroom to touch up her makeup and adjust her mindset.

However, she never expected that as soon as she entered the bathroom, a beautiful silk ribbon would suddenly roll towards her!

In less than a second, a living person disappeared completely.

In the banquet hall, Daki felt the prey she had captured and a faint smile appeared on her face.

Seeing this beautiful smile, the men around became even crazier.

Among them was the fiancé of the woman who had been swept away by the ribbon.

"Meow~"

Just then, Daki heard a cat's meow at her feet.

Chapter 14 Preparation before the war

When Daki lowered her head, she saw a pure white Persian cat circling around her feet, occasionally looking up at her.

This kitten is so delicate and cute that Daki wants to bend down and hug it.

But as soon as I made a move, the cat ran away.

This made the veins on Duji's forehead pop up and she felt a little angry.

But seeing that the white cat had run far away, Daki just kept the incident in mind, restrained her expression, and started talking with the upper-class people around her again.

"Have you found her yet? That's great. I'll treat you to some dried fish."

In the corridor on the other side, the Persian cat came to Tom and meowed at him twice.

As a cat himself, Tom naturally understood what the Persian cat meant. Based on its information, Tom, who had read the original work, quickly recognized that the woman should be Dakimaki, the Upper Six.

Although the other party may not have concealed his thoughts at all, Tang Mu did not expect to find a ghost so quickly.

Taking advantage of himself as a small animal, after confirming that he was looking for the evil spirits hiding on the cruise ship, the first thing Tom did was to build good relationships with the small animals on the cruise ship.

Establishing Elvis' authority.

Humans may be bewitched and controlled by evil spirits, but those inconspicuous little animals are perfect scouts.

Neither humans nor ghosts took these little animals seriously.

In this way, the small animals' reconnaissance work will be more effective.

"Meow~~"

At this moment, the Persian cat ignored the dried fish that Tang Mu handed over, and instead made soft and cute sounds, moving closer to rub against Tang Mu's body.

After circling around Tom Mu, the big fluffy tail swept past Tom Mu and finally pointed its butt at Tom Mu.

Smelling the pheromones in the air, Tom the cat felt unwell.

After turning into a cat, it has been dealing with the Demon Slayer Corps.

Today was the first time I interacted with other kittens.

Are all animals so direct?

Tom took two steps back nervously: "What are you doing? I am your Elvis, not just any cat."

The little Persian cat looked back at Tom with some confusion, and seemed equally puzzled as to why this male cat was so strange.

"Oh! Rose, my little princess, I have been looking for you for a long time, and you are here."

When the two cats were looking at each other, a noble white lady who was dressed gorgeously and looked somewhat wealthy came over and picked up the little Persian cat on the floor with surprise.

“Meow~~”

Rose struggled twice in the noble woman's arms, turned her head to look in Tom's direction, as if she wanted to jump to the ground and continue to stick close to Tom.

"Wow~ There's another cute little cat here. Whose cat are you?"

The woman seemed to like cats very much.

She held Rose in one hand, squatted slightly, and gently touched Tom's head.

Tom's ears twitched and he shook his head, disguising himself as an ordinary cat.

Watching the rich man take the meowing Rose away, Tang Mu couldn't help but sigh: "My damn charm is so irresistible. Both humans and cats like me so much. It turns out that my handsomeness can no longer be hidden."

After being narcissistic for a while, Tom decided to go find other small animals to find out what was going on.

Only after confirming the location of all the evil spirits on the cruise ship can we attack them. This way we can control the situation and minimize casualties.

Tang Mu was sure that the evil ghosts on the ship had already discovered them and were probably looking for an opportunity to deal with them.

This is also the reason why Tanjiro and his men are arranged to patrol in layers. The purpose is to give those evil spirits a chance to take action.

The real patrolmen are Tom's little animal friends.

Tanjiro and the others are just bait.

It is much better to induce the evil spirits to attack Tanjiro and his friends than to attack ordinary passengers who have no ability to fight back.

In other words, the situation between the Demon Slayer Corps and the evil demons on this cruise ship is very simple at this moment.

Those evil ghosts thought they had a great advantage, but they didn't know that Tang Mu had the advantage in both strength and time.

If they take action first, their position will be exposed and the two sides will go to war directly.

If they hold back and don't take action, a cruise ship is only that big, and Tang Mu is confident that he can find their location. Then it will be Tang Mu's turn to attack first.

The Persian cat had been taken away by its owner, so Tang Mu found another cat to continue monitoring Daki.

This cat is a working cat brought on board by the sailors to catch mice. Its name is Jack. It is agile and its identity is hidden. Tangmu is very relieved to have it monitor Duoji.

As a reward, the three cats' daily wage was three small dried fishes.

Sure enough, the cat who got the dried fish and did the job was easier to talk to.

The Persian cat Rose doesn't want dried fish, she just wants Tom's love, which is too much trouble.

A dried fish trade is a dried fish trade, and talking about feelings is no longer pure.

After a whole day of searching.

By the next day, the cruise ship had already sailed quite a distance towards the North Pacific.

Looking out from the deck at this time, all you can see is the endless ocean.

Everyone thought that this voyage was just a simple voyage.

But on the second day of the voyage, a piece of news made everyone on the cruise ship nervous and excited.

A banker's fiancée disappeared mysteriously, and according to a waiter, he saw the banker's fiancée enter the toilet last night.

This is the latest sighting report.

After that, no one ever saw that lady again.

In this day and age, no matter what happens on an ocean liner, it will not be surprising.

The people on the ship had more or less heard a lot of horrifying rumors. What's more, the Infinity cruise ship they were on had once been reported to have lost more than a dozen crew members two months ago.

Now, on the second day after the cruise ship set sail again, people are missing again, reminding the passengers that this was an accident ship.
