Shinobu Kocho paused for a moment. Simply thanking her verbally was too empty. The person in front of her was not a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, and it was very likely that he would not come to her for treatment because of his injury.

So how should I thank him?

It's so disturbing.

There is definitely something wrong with simply accepting things from others without giving anything in return: "Um, is there anything Mr. Yin likes?"

"Me?" Ichimaru Gin smiled and said, "Dried persimmons, I like them very much, but don't confuse dried taro with dried persimmons."

"Mr. Silver."

"Ok?"

Shinobu Kocho said in a tone of laughter and tears: "No one would confuse dried taro and dried persimmons. They are completely different things."

".Just a reminder." Ichimaru Gin explained. He remembered that Ichimaru Gin had made a mistake before, and that was why he hated dried taro. He himself didn't care.

"Yes, yes, I understand." Shinobu Kocho smiled. She found that the person in front of her might not be as scary as she had imagined. From his words, could it be that he had confused dried taro and dried persimmons before?

This is kind of cute.

"Well, this way." Shinobu Kocho walked in front, greeted a few girls in nurse uniforms, and then introduced Gin Ichimaru to them.

The problem is that these people were shaking when they looked at Gin Ichimaru.

Shinobu Kocho wanted to say something, but when she thought about how she would look when she saw Gin Ichimaru, she could only sigh. She didn't seem to be in the position to teach anyone a lesson.

Afterwards, he saw the girl sitting in the courtyard with a smile as if engraved on her face, looking at the two people who walked in with her calm eyes.

"Mr. Gin, let me introduce her first. She is my stepson Kanao Kurikara."

Chapter 10 The Smile on the Face

Chapter 10: A Smile on the Face

"Good morning, Miss Lihualuo~~"

Ichimaru Gin smiled and waved his hand.

Kanao Lihualuo kept a smile on her face and wanted to reach out and take out a coin. She couldn't make a judgment on her own. She usually lived by following instructions. If there were no instructions, she would decide by tossing a coin.

But now, hand

Feeling a bit stiff.

why?

Kanao Kurikaraku was a little confused. She didn't know why she felt unable to move when she looked at Gin Ichimaru's smile.

The smile on Ichimaru Gin's face deepened a little, as if some prank had succeeded. It was interesting that such an emotionless girl would also feel scared.

"Um, Mr. Gin, don't scare Kanao." Shinobu Kocho said helplessly, "She is not cheerful to begin with."

"I'm really sorry, I'm sorry, Kanao-chan~~, um, I like this pronunciation very much."

"Good morning." Kanao Kurikaraku had just finished tossing the coin and said to Gin Ichimaru while looking at the pattern on the coin.

"This kid is really interesting." Ichimaru Gin reached out and pinched Kanao's face with interest: "Do you solve everything with coins?"

"Okay." Shinobu Kocho reached out and took Gin Ichimaru's hand and said to Kanao Kurika, "He and I still have something to do. I'll see Kanao later."

Ichimaru Gin was stunned for a moment before being pulled away by Kocho Shinobu. After coming to his senses, he smiled and said, "Ah, Miss Shinobu is really funny. Are you not afraid anymore?"

Shinobu Kocho shook her head: "It's just that I suddenly discovered it."

Shinobu Kocho suddenly remembered that there were many people in the Demon Slayer Corps who were afraid of her. Although it was related to her identity, it was also related to the smile she always kept on her face.

It's not realistic. No matter how real it looks, this smile is fake.

And Ichimaru Gin was the same as her, always keeping a smile on his face, but different from hers, her smile was disguised as intimacy, while Ichimaru Gin's was another kind of creepy smile.

And just now she discovered this, discovered that the terrifying smile of the man in front of her was his disguise.

"I didn't expect Miss Shinobu to be so good at observing other people." Gin Ichimaru thought about it carefully and suddenly understood why Shinobu Kocho did that. The two people were indeed a bit similar.

They are a little similar in that they are always smiling, but otherwise they are completely different.

"Next, I will report your case to the lord. The lord wants to see you."

"The lord of the Demon Slayer Corps? Great, I'm also interested in the person who commands the Demon Slayer Corps."

The leader of the Demon Slayer Corps, Ubuyashiki Yoya, has no guards around him.

Beimingyu Gyomei raised his suggestions several times, but they were rejected every time. According to Shinobu Kocho, the successive heads of the Sanyashiki family had never arranged personal bodyguards for themselves.

In other words, once the evil spirits know the master's position, they can easily carry out the decapitation tactic.

Shinobu Kocho was actually opposed to bringing people directly to the headquarters like this, but it was obvious that her objection was ineffective.

When we arrived at the Butterfly House, we were very close to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.

Fortunately, there are pillars around the residence, which can provide some protection.

Like the current situation of meeting outsiders, in her opinion, it would be better to have some pillars nearby. If that doesn't work, just let some pillars 'happen to pass by' and give it a try.

Although after meeting Gin Ichimaru, she was sure that this person was not a vicious person, nor would he be an accomplice of the ghost, but she could not act based on her own subjective judgment.

Even if the chance is only one in a thousand or one in ten thousand, we cannot put Ubuyashiki Yoshiya in danger.

"I see."

As she spoke, Shinobu Kocho arranged a room for Gin Ichimaru first: "Someone will call you at lunch time. Before that, you can rest in the room. Of course, it doesn't matter if you walk around. I need to report what happened here."

"Then I'll take a rest." Ichimaru Gin sat on the bed, propped up his chin, looked at Kocho Shinobu standing at the door and said, "I just need to prepare something."

Shinobu Kocho nodded and said nothing more.

Ichimaru Gin waited until Kocho Shinobu completely disappeared, took out his Zanpakuto and placed it beside him, then opened his eyes, revealing his blue pupils.

The divine spear broke, and a small half of the blade fell into Ichimaru Gin's other hand.

Gin Ichimaru put away this half of the blade, then took the remaining spiritual pressure from the Zanpakuto and began to inject it into it.

The broken parts began to recover little by little along with the spirit particles.

Such a situation is still very rare. Gin Ichimaru has never encountered it, and he has never seen it in the animation. This is the first time he has seen it. For the god of death, the situation where the Zanpakutō breaks is generally after a huge amount of spiritual pressure is consumed. Therefore, it will be very difficult to restore the Zanpakutō afterwards, because the god of death's own spiritual pressure is almost exhausted.

It's very rare for a Zanpakutō to break when his spiritual pressure is at its peak, as it is now.

If we really want to talk about it, the battle between Kurosaki Ichigo and Kenpachi Zaraki can barely be counted.

Kenpachi Zaraki broke Ichigo Kurosaki's Zanpakutō, after which Ichigo Kurosaki's spiritual pressure surged and his Zanpakutō was instantly restored to full shape.

The hardness of a Zanpakutō is not precisely fixed, but fluctuates constantly with the spiritual pressure of the god of death.

After all, Zanpakuto can be said to be the other half of the soul of the god of death.

When the spiritual pressure is weak, the Zanpakutō is 'fragile', and when the spiritual pressure is strong, the Zanpakutō is 'hard'.

Because now Ichimaru Gin's spiritual pressure is at its peak, although it is only one twenty-fifth of its peak, but even so it is still at its peak, so in just a few seconds, the broken Zanpakutō was fully restored.

"Thank you for your hard work, Gunslinger." Ichimaru Gin put away the blade and took the broken part in his hand. "I wonder what that guy can make with you. It should be very interesting."

After finishing this, Ichimaru Gin stood up and looked at his room, narrowed his eyes and smiled: "It's no fun to stay here any longer, let's go for a walk."

The matter of Zanpakuto has been dealt with. Next, I will try to increase the character's unlocking level by taking a walk.

Chapter 11 Demon Slayer Corps

Chapter 11 Demon Slayer Corps Leader

"I see. I understand the situation now."

Ubuyashiki Yoya maintained a gentle smile on his face. His eyes seemed to be seeing everything, yet also seemed to be seeing nothing. It was hard to tell whether he was blind or still had vision. "Is her name Ichimaru Gin? She's different from what I imagined, but she's worth seeing."

"But wouldn't it be better if the lord's whereabouts were not revealed to outsiders? How about exchanging letters?"

"It doesn't matter." Ubuyashiki Kazuya shook his head: "My whereabouts are not that secret, and since he has met Muzan Kibutsuji, we can't let go of this clue. And if it is really as he said, it is even more worthwhile to meet him."

As a member of the Ubuyashiki clan, he is very confident in his judgment. He has a hunch that this man named "Ichimaru Gin" will become the key figure in killing Muzan Kibutsuji.

"At the same time, one thing must be confirmed."

"Are you sure about one thing?" Shinobu Kocho asked with some doubt while kneeling in front of Ubuyashiki Kazuya.

"Yes, if Ichimaru Gin really has the power that Muzan Kibutsuji is afraid of, then he can't be allowed to take action again."

"Why is this?" Shinobu Kocho asked in surprise.

"If we just want to live a peaceful life, then it doesn't matter. But if we want to kill Muzan Kibutsuji in our generation, we can't let Ichimaru Gin take action before we know where Muzan Kibutsuji is." Ubuyashiki Yoya lowered his eyes and fell into memories: "In the Warring States Period, a group of swordsmen who used the 'Breath of Beginning' almost killed Muzan Kibutsuji."

"But he failed, and Muzan Kibutsuji finally escaped."

Ubuyashiki Yoya continued, "In the decades since then, Muzan Kibutsuji has never appeared again, and the number of demons has not increased but has been decreasing. It is very likely that Muzan Kibutsuji has gone into hiding and did not even dare to create new demons. He did not dare to come out until the swordsman of that generation died."

"Ah" Shinobu Kocho widened her eyes. This was the first time she heard of such a thing, and it overlapped to some extent with the Muzan Kibutsuji described by Gin Ichimaru.

The Muzan Kibutsuji portrayed by Gin Ichimaru simply ran away after seeing him, but Shinobu Kocho didn't believe it at first.

Is the ancestor of ghosts so timid?

But if what Ubuyashiki Yoshiya said, then it should be true. Muzan Kibutsuji is so cowardly that once Gin Ichimaru really shows the ability to kill him, he will most likely hide without creating even a single demon for decades or even hundreds of years.

Unlike demons, humans have a limited lifespan. Once their lifespan comes to an end and Gin Ichimaru dies, Muzan Kibutsuji will appear again. Although they will have a period of peace, nothing will change after that.

The fate of the Demon Slayer Corps fighting against evil spirits will continue.

"I understand." Shinobu Kocho said, "I will tell Mr. Ichimaru about this."

The common vision of the Demon Slayer Corps is not temporary peace, but to truly and thoroughly kill Muzan Kibutsuji, even if it means sacrificing all of their lives.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Shinobu." Ubuyashiki Yoya's tone was filled with hope. If there really was someone who could kill Muzan Kibutsuji, then their Demon Slayer Corps would only be one step away from victory. This time, they must not let Muzan Kibutsuji escape again.

"As ordered."

"Mr. Gin~~" Shinobu Kocho knocked on Ichimaru Gin's door and tilted her head and said, "Huh? You're not here? It's already so late."

Shinobu Kocho said as she looked at the full moon outside the window.

"Where are you going?" At this moment, footsteps were heard coming from a distance, and a voice approached.

"We're taking a walk." Ichimaru Gin walked over with a smile: "Good evening, Shinobu, what can I do for you?"

"Yes." Shinobu Kocho nodded: "The Lord has agreed to meet you. I will take you to see the Lord tomorrow, so I came here specially to tell you."

"I see. By the way, this is for you."

"This is?"

"The blade of my magic gun." Ichimaru Gin said with a smile: "If it is this, it should be able to directly hurt the soul. Of course, the soul should only occupy a very small position in the brain, so it is still very troublesome to find it accurately."

Shinobu Kocho's eyes lit up.

It just so happened that her Nichirin Sword was damaged. If she could integrate the material of this blade into the tip of the Nichirin Sword, could she kill the evil spirit in this way?

"It is still unknown how effective my poison will be on the upper ranks." Shinobu Kocho looked at the blade of the Zanpakutō in front of her: "But if... if it can directly damage the soul of the demon, it will definitely be effective."

"Thank you." Shinobu Kocho said with a smile, "Thank you, Gin. I will accept this gift. According to the lord, you should try not to fight with demons next time, so that Muzan Kibutsuji will not misjudge your ability."

"Yeah, that's what I was thinking." Ichimaru Gin's smile deepened a little: "I had the same idea, but if I ever encounter an upper-rank demon, I can take action and then pretend to be fighting with all my might, and get into a tough fight with the opponent, or fall into a disadvantageous position."

"After all, I have never actually fought with Muzan Kibutsuji, so this should make it easier for him to misjudge my fighting ability."

"This is too difficult." Shinobu Kocho shook her head. "Although the upper-rank demons occasionally appear, it is difficult for the Demon Slayer Corps to determine where they will appear. Although they are not as hidden as Muzan Kibutsuji, it is still difficult to find them."

"There will be a chance."

Ichimaru Gin said as he opened his door: "Then I will go to rest and wait for you to come and see me tomorrow."

"Yes."

Shinobu Kocho watched Ichimaru Gin walk into her room, slowly put away her smile, and looked at the blade in her hand and clenched it slightly: "Where the ghost's soul is."

She turned and walked towards her laboratory.

There were a lot of wisteria flowers planted around the laboratory, and there were two ghosts tied up inside. They were the experimental subjects she used to test the effect of the poison.

"If we want to test the effect of this blade, two ghosts are not enough. It looks like we will have to compete with Teng Xishan for ghosts next."

If the Demon Slayer Corps encounters particularly weak, newborn demons, they may not necessarily kill them all. Instead, they will capture them and throw them into Fujiki Mountain as assessment tools for new recruits.

Next, Shinobu Kocho prepared to compete with Fujikiyama and ask other members of the Demon Slayer Corps to send the weak demons they captured to her side.
