Starting from Naruto, fusion anime girls

Hearing Ubuyashiki Yoya's assessment of Master Zhao's strength, swordsmen like Tomioka Giyuu who had never seen Master Zhao's strength frowned, obviously unconvinced. However, Gyoumei Beimingyu and Shimizu Fushigawa, who had witnessed Master Zhao's strength with their own eyes, nodded in agreement. Both of them felt that they were far behind Master Zhao in strength. Even Shinobu Kocho said:

"Even if I have obtained Tamamonomae's power now, my strength is only on par with Senior Zhao Shixia. As far as I know, there are also Ye Xizhen from Wudang Mountain and Zhang Taiyue from Longhu Mountain in Shenzhou Dao Sect. They are as famous as Master Zhao in Shenzhou, and their strength is probably not inferior to Master Zhao. In addition to the young masters, there must be senior masters with profound cultivation in Shenzhou Dao Sect."

As she spoke, Shinobu Kocho spread her hands and sighed helplessly:

"In comparison, the strength of our Demon Slayer Corps in Shenzhou might be just that of a medium-sized Taoist sect."

Hearing this, Ubuyashiki Yoya coughed and said with a pale face:

"The Shenzhou Dao Sect is indeed powerful, but even with such a strong Shenzhou Dao Sect, they have repeatedly attempted to assassinate our high-ranking officials, but all of them have failed. This cannot be just because Li Shimin secretly obstructed them. The strength of the high-ranking officials is definitely stronger than we imagined. At least now, the strength of our Demon Slayer Corps is impossible to cause them too much trouble."

"Not bad." Shinobu Kocho also said:

"After Xu Fu obtained the ability to possess others from Tamamonomae, he only possessed Prince Arisugawamiya instead of directly possessing Tianhuang. It is obvious that he is afraid of the strength of the top leaders. We did make mistakes in our judgment of the top leaders in the past. At least from the performance of Nogizaka Bunzo, the top leaders will definitely not lack upper-rank masters."

At this point, Ubuyashiki Yoya fell into deep thought, and so did the other pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps.

At this time, due to the influence of Rengoku Makijuro, the top leaders of the Demon Slayer Corps have decided to use their own strength to fight against the top leaders and prevent their future life from going to extremes. But if the top leaders are really so powerful that even Shenzhou Daomen can't do anything to them, then the resistance of the Demon Slayer Corps will be meaningless. While thinking about this, Ubuyashiki Yoya asked Shinobu Kocho:

"Ms. Shinobu, are you and Tamamonomae still in the fusion state?"

Kocho Shinobu subconsciously put her fingers on her cheeks and nodded:

"After Li Shimin's death, Tamamonomae's obsession faded a lot. Originally, after I merged with her, her will to be independent still existed in my heart, but now even this will has become much weaker. I think after thousands of years of life, her spirit is also exhausted, so we have been maintaining a fusion state, indistinguishable from each other."

As she said this, the smile on Shinobu Kocho's face gradually became charming, and even her eyes were full of feminine temptation. It was obvious that after Shinobu Kocho and Tamamonomae merged, the part of Tamamonomae's consciousness was affecting her behavior, making Shinobu Kocho's unintentional actions at this moment full of stunning charm. Then she thought in a soft voice:

"Maybe even if we separate through the Three Corpses Technique, we will be reunited again!"

"I see. No wonder you give me a different feeling now than before."

As Ubuyashiki Yoya spoke, he subconsciously turned his head away and didn't look at Kocho Shinobu. It was really because Tamamonomae was a beauty who had enchanted Shenzhou for a thousand years, and Kocho Shinobu herself was extremely beautiful. After the two were combined, the charm that was unintentionally exuded was too terrifying. Even a man as determined as Ubuyashiki Yoya couldn't control himself at this moment.

As the subject of the change, Shinobu Kocho herself did not notice much. She even felt that she had been restraining the influence of Tamamonomae's memory on herself, trying to make herself more serious. Apart from anything else, Shinobu Kocho's current dressing style is very conservative, and the uniform of the Demon Slayer Corps wraps her whole body tightly.

But it is this kind of restraint that makes her charm even more terrifying. Everyone in the Demon Slayer Corps feels that the current Kocho Shinobu is full of temptation. Except for the blind Komei, almost everyone present will subconsciously focus on Kocho Shinobu, especially a man with expressionless face named Tomioka Giyu.

"Well, since Tamamonomae and Miss Shinobu are still in a fusion state, Miss Shinobu should have a lot of battle-related experience in your mind right now? In that case, Miss Shinobu, are you interested in sharing this valuable experience with everyone and training some powerful juniors for the Demon Slayer Corps?"

After hearing Ubuyashiki Yoya's suggestion, Shinobu Kocho said:

"My lord, do you want me to be a trainer?"

"I'm not a trainer, I just want Miss Shinobu to train more stepchildren. Miss Shinobu only has one stepchild, Kanao Kurika, right? If possible, I hope Miss Shinobu can recruit a few more outstanding juniors as stepchildren. In this way, we can train some powerful juniors for the Demon Slayer Corps and strengthen the strength of our Demon Slayer Corps."

Hearing this, Kochi Shinobu thought:

This is a good idea. For example, the main characters in Demon Slayer are all talented. If they are trained early, their strength will definitely become stronger and they will definitely play a more important role in the future.

After making the decision, Shinobu Kocho immediately agreed to Ubuyashiki Yoya's request and planned to bring everyone under her command and train them well after Tanjiro and others passed the final trial.

But before that, Shinobu Kocho felt that the strength of the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps also needed to be improved.

In the original work, the Demon Slayer Corps had a hard time dealing with just one Muzan Kibutsuji, but now they have to face the high-ranking officials who are thousands of times more powerful than Muzan Kibutsuji. If the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps cannot have the strength to kill Muzan Kibutsuji alone, then they are not qualified to participate in the confrontation with the high-ranking officials.

So while deciding to recruit a few more stepsons, Shinobu Kocho plans to rely on Tamamonomae's memory in her mind to improve the breathing method of the Demon Slayer Corps. Then, she will conduct intensive training for the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps to promote the new breathing method and help them improve their strength.

Of course, improving strength must be put aside for now. The most important thing for Shinobu Kocho is to go to Sagiri Mountain to find Tanjiro and his sister and extract their blood samples as research subjects for her and Miss Tamayo.

So after this meeting of the Pillars, Shinobu Kocho went out again and set out on the road to Mount Sagiri.

The distance between Mount Sagiri and the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters is not far. It should be said that the area that the entire Demon Slayer Corps can influence is actually not large, and is limited to the Kanto region. For example, other areas such as the remote North Sea area or the southern islands are basically not under the control of the Demon Slayer Corps.

This can be seen from the origins of the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps. Including Shinobu Kocho and the main characters of Demon Slayer, all of them are from the metropolitan area. In modern times, they are basically from the capital. In other words, the background of the story of Demon Slayer is actually very small. Not to mention foreign countries, even large areas of China have nothing to do with the story of Demon Slayer.

However, according to Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's recent plan, he seems to be preparing to disperse the power of the Demon Slayer Corps. No longer limited to the Kanto region, but to set up branches in the nine major regions of the country. As for the heads of the branches, they are the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Only by then will the Demon Slayer Corps truly transform into a nationwide organization and be qualified to confront the top leaders.

However, as the size of the group expands, the relationship within the Demon Slayer Corps will inevitably not be as close as it is now. Apart from other things, due to the distance limit, the Pillar Meeting, which was originally held once a month, may only be held once every six months after the size expands. Everyone does not have many opportunities to meet each other, and the relationship between them will naturally become distant.

It can only be said that everything in this world has its pros and cons, and the Demon Slayer Corps is destined not to be able to fight small battles forever. Facing the tide of the times and new challenges, the Demon Slayer Corps must take the path of standardization. When the Demon Slayer Corps' strength continues to grow, various problems will inevitably erupt within it. This is the inevitable law of the development of things.

With such thoughts in mind, Shinobu Kocho quickly arrived at Mt. Sagiri and found Urokodaki Sakonji who was waiting there.

As the former water pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, Urokodaki Sakonji is a man with a pretty good temper. The only thing that puzzled Shinobu Kocho was that he liked to wear this mask wherever he went. When Urokodaki Sakonji saw Shinobu Kocho, he didn't say much, but took Shinobu Kocho to the hut on the mountain and found Nezuko who was sleeping soundly.

"Nezuko has never eaten anyone before."

Perhaps worried that Kocho Shinobu would kill Nezuko directly, Urokodaki Sakonji said:

"Perhaps for this reason, she fell into a deep sleep shortly after arriving at Mount Sagiri. Perhaps she was replenishing her energy in this way!"

Chapter 165: Nezuko

Shinobu Kocho had done detailed research on ghosts before, and with Tamamonomae's memories, she naturally knew that Nezuko was changing her physical state through sleep and using microorganisms in the air to replenish her body's energy. When her physical state improved and the energy accumulated in her body was sufficient, Nezuko would wake up.

In fact, Nezuko's current state is very similar to the zombies in Shenzhou. In fact, the so-called zombies are like Nezuko, sleeping and evolving in the Feng Shui tomb, becoming more and more powerful over time. The ghosts in Xiao Ri were originally Xu Fu, who was born in Shenzhou, and transformed into zombies. In other words, Nezuko has now returned to her original state as a ghost.

After checking for a while, Kocho Shinobu had some understanding of Nezuko's condition. Then Kocho Shinobu took out a syringe and collected a blood sample from Nezuko. Then, according to Tamamonomae's memory, she said to Urokodaki Sakonji beside her:

"From the current situation, it will take Nezuko at least a year and a half to wake up. And even if she wakes up, she may not be able to overcome her desire for human flesh and blood. So Mr. Urokodaki, I need to make some arrangements around Nezuko to help her evolve faster and better. But these arrangements require some help, and I hope you can help."

Urokodaki Sakonji was not aware of the fusion of Kocho and Tamamonomae, but he could sense the trust in Kocho's words and knew that Kocho was not aimless. So he nodded and said:

"What do you need me to do?"

"I need jade, lots and lots of it. The purer the color, the better. The more the better. It would be best if there were enough to build a house. And the place where Nezuko is sleeping must also be changed. It must be moved to a Feng Shui treasure land surrounded by mountains and where dragons and tigers gather. Only in this way can Nezuko evolve quickly and even become an immortal corpse-release fairy!"

It turns out that what Shinobu Kocho has to do now is to help Nezuko become a corpse-release immortal, just like Shennong helped Tamamonomae in the past.

Of course, there are also differences between corpse-reincarnated immortals.

A corpse-reincarnated immortal like Li Shimin knows everything about the past and the future, and his Taoist magic is almost invincible. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is an immortal. However, the era when Tamamonomae became a corpse-reincarnated immortal was still very primitive, so the corpse-reincarnated immortal that Shinobu Kocho wanted Nezuko to become naturally did not have the nearly invincible power of Li Shimin.

The corpse-release immortal that Shinobu Kocho wanted Nezuko to become, although it can attach to others and control their bodies, and has a nearly infinite lifespan, it does not have the power of Li Shimin. And it is subject to great restrictions, such as not being able to eat humans before the corpse-release, and not being able to touch human flesh and blood after the corpse-release. Otherwise, the cells will be eroded by the flesh and blood of others, and it will be difficult to maintain the state of the corpse-release immortal.

After Nezuko's death, the flesh and blood carrying her own will will break away from her original body. The so-called death, the original meaning of death is that the soul breaks away from the body and lives freely in the world. In other words, Nezuko will be divided into two like the three corpses, into the rational Nezuko and the original evil spirit Nezuko.

Both are Nezuko, but both are independent individuals.

If Nezuko can control her demon instincts with her special physique, then she can possess her original body and turn back into a human like in the original story. But if Nezuko's body cannot control her desire to eat people, then the Demon Slayer Corps can only kill Nezuko's evil demon body, and the rational Nezuko can only possess someone else to continue her life.

In short, what Shinobu Kocho did was actually to provide insurance for Nezuko. After all, the evolution of Nezuko's body in the original work was full of coincidences and unknown factors, and no one could guarantee that Nezuko would be the same in this world as in the original work. As a pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, Shinobu Kocho must be responsible for the lives of others and cannot really put all her hopes on others' trust in Nezuko.

After hearing what Shinobu Kocho was planning, Urokodaki Sakonji also nodded in agreement. Although he also knew that if Shinobu Kocho's plan failed, Nezuko would only be able to live like a ghost attached to someone else, but this was better than becoming a ghost and eating people. Moreover, if things got out of control, they would not have too much psychological pressure to kill Nezuko as part of the ghost.

However, considering that Nezuko is Tanjiro's sister after all, Urokodaki Sakonji thinks that he still needs to ask Tanjiro's brother for his opinion on this matter. Moreover, a large amount of jade is not a simple matter, and this matter must be applied to the Demon Slayer Corps.

So Shinobu Kocho first reported the situation to Ubuyashiki Kōya through the crow, and then waited in the hut for Tanjiro to return from training. Not long after, Tanjiro, the protagonist of the original work, appeared in front of Shinobu Kocho. He was a lively young man with a cheerful smile on his face. Although he had a scar on his forehead, he looked very sunny and friendly.

Tanjiro saw Shinobu Kocho sitting in the hut. Looking at her graceful figure, beautiful face, and beautiful butterfly hair accessories and haori, he was impressed by her beauty and sighed in his heart:

What a beautiful person!

Afterwards, Urokodaki Sakonji told Tanjiro about Kocho Shinobu's plan. Tanjiro agreed to Kocho Shinobu's decision without much thought. After all, as a brother, he didn't want his sister to lose her body, but he didn't want her to become a man-eating ghost. Although becoming a corpse-reincarnated immortal is cruel, it is better than becoming a ghost.

At the same time, Tanjiro also learned from Shinobu Kocho about the special physique of his family.

"Tanjiro, maybe it's rude to say this. But from my observation, you and Nezuko seem to have special talents in becoming demons. And your talent in becoming a demon is even better than Nezuko's. Nezuko was able to overcome her desire to eat humans soon after becoming a demon, and if you become a demon, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Shinobu Kocho said with a serious face:

"I don't even find it strange that you became an immortal ultimate creature and instantly overcame sunlight after becoming a demon. Do you know what this means?"

Hearing this, Tanjiro swallowed and said:

"So, I can't become a ghost?"

"That's right." Shinobu Kocho nodded.

"So if you really join the Demon Slayer Corps in the future, remember that when you come into contact with demons, you must never have any contact with demon blood. You brothers and sisters are so talented in this area that even the slightest contact can turn you into a demon. Do you understand?"

Tanjiro nodded solemnly upon hearing this.

After that, Shinobu Kocho began to observe the Feng Shui on Mt. Sagiri and began to prepare for Nezuko's reincarnation. Relying on Tamamonomae's memory, Shinobu Kocho quickly found a Feng Shui treasure land, and then dug a huge cave here with Sakonji Urokodaki.

At this time, Ubuyashiki Yoya also agreed to Shinobu Kocho's proposal and sent a large amount of jade to Sagiri Mountain.

These jades are expensive, but for the Demon Slayer Corps, which now has a lot of wealth, it is not a particularly large expense. In contrast, the Demon Slayer Corps is actually more interested in the so-called corpse-release immortals. In particular, the corpse-release immortals' ability to attach to other people's bodies may play an important role at critical moments.

So, with the location and raw materials ready, Kocho Shinobu began to carve the jade with the Nichirin Sword. With the combined efforts of her and Urokodaki Sakonji, the original cave began to be covered by jade bricks. Soon, the cave was sealed with various formation runes carved by Kocho Shinobu.

After practicing every day, Tanjiro would also come here to check the construction progress of the underground cave.

In just one week, he saw that the crypt was covered with beautiful crystal jade. The dome above the crypt was engraved with the 365 constellations of the celestial sphere, and below was a diagram of the 24 solar terms, as well as the sixty-year cycle of heavenly stems and earthly branches, and the four spiritual images of the sky, the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermillion Bird, and the Black Tortoise. The whole crypt gave people a feeling of being simple and solemn, majestic and dignified. When you were in it, you could feel gusts of cold wind blowing. It was truly a first-class tomb.

Tanjiro knew nothing about the Feng Shui of Shenzhou, but he knew that this crypt was definitely not simple. Then everyone moved Nezuko to the tomb, into a jade coffin carefully carved by Kocho Shinobu. Then they covered the exit of the crypt with soil, and Nezuko began to evolve towards the direction of corpse release under the influence of the Feng Shui spiritual veins and the jade formation.

"This way, Nezuko can be saved!"

Tanjiro muttered as he looked at the compacted earth below him.

"Of course she can be saved, but where are you going to let Nezuko stay after she has been transformed into a corpse?"

The Kocho Shinobu beside her suddenly showed a playful smile on her face, and said in a half-charming and half-enchanting way:

"Do you want Nezuko, a girl, to stay in your body?"

"Hey, isn't this possible?" Obviously Tanjiro hasn't realized the seriousness of the matter yet, and said as a matter of course:

"Nezuko is my sister after all, I can't let her possess someone else and cause trouble for them, right?"

"Of course not! If Nezuko possessed you, what would she do when you went to the bathroom? Would you let her go to the bathroom with you? You have to know that when possessed, you and Nezuko share the same feelings. A girl feels the same feeling as a boy when he goes to the bathroom, ugh!"

After hearing Shinobu Kocho's explanation, Tanjiro realized the seriousness of the matter.

Their Nezuko is still an unmarried girl, how could she feel about such things?

"Then what should we do?"

As Tanjiro said this, he looked at Shinobu Kocho, and it was obvious that he was asking Shinobu Kocho if she could reluctantly allow Nezuko to possess her.

In response, Shinobu Kocho shook her head and said:

"Don't look at me. My soul is special. It will merge with other people's souls subconsciously. Even Tamamonomae couldn't resist this fusion tendency and merged with me. You don't want your sister to merge with me, do you?"

Hearing this, Tanjiro lowered his head, knowing that Kocho Shinobu would not be able to help him. Unfortunately, Tanjiro himself did not know any good girls. If Nezuko succeeded in her corpse transformation in the future, she would really have no good target to attach herself to.

Seeing this, Shinobu Kocho also smiled and said:

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I actually have a stepson, a girl named Kuroruka Kanao. I'll go back and ask her if she can sacrifice herself to become Nezuko's host. If she doesn't agree, there are many girls in the Butterfly House where I am, and I can always find someone willing to help Nezuko, so you don't have to worry!"

After hearing this, Tanjiro breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself: Miss Shinobu really likes to play tricks on people!

Then I heard Kocho Shinobu say:

"But compared to Nezuko, I think you, Tanjiro, are facing a bigger problem right now. Don't you think that the water breathing method doesn't suit you very well?"

Tanjiro shook his head when he heard this. He had just started training, so naturally he didn't have this feeling. At this time, Urokodaki Sakonji, who had been listening, said:

"Shinobu, do you also think that Tanjiro is more suitable for breathing techniques of other attributes?"

It turns out that it was not just Kocho Shinobu, Urokodaki Sakonji also realized that Tanjiro was not very compatible with the Water Breathing Method. However, Tanjiro was still laying the foundation at this time, and the Water Breathing Method had the strongest compatibility among the five major breathing methods, so Urokodaki Sakonji gave up the idea of teaching Tanjiro other breathing methods.

Originally, Urokodaki Sakonji wanted Tanjiro to pass the final test, then become the stepson of the Flame Pillar, and then switch to the Flame Breathing Technique. But now that this matter has been pointed out by Kocho Shinobu, Urokodaki Sakonji thinks Kocho Shinobu should have a breathing technique that is more suitable for Tanjiro. After all, Kocho Shinobu is famous for her number of breathing techniques in the Demon Slayer Corps.

Then I heard Butterfly Shinobu say:

"Compared to the Water Breathing Technique, I think the Sun Breathing Technique is the most suitable for Tanjiro."

Sun Breathing?

Hearing this name, even Urokodaki Sakonji was shocked. After all, the Sun Breathing Technique was too powerful and famous, and it was the breathing technique with the strongest restraint against demons among all breathing techniques. Urokodaki Sakonji really couldn't imagine that the mild-tempered Tanjiro would be able to fit such a domineering breathing technique.

However, compared to the power of the Sun Breathing Technique, Urokodaki Sakonji was more worried about Tanjiro's body.

"I heard that the practice of Sun Breathing is extremely difficult. Senior Tsugukuni Yoriichi wanted to teach this breathing method to others, but hundreds of years ago, the predecessors of the Demon Slayer Corps, even though they all had extremely strong strength, did not pass on the Sun Breathing method. Tanjiro may have some talent in the Sun Breathing method, but can his current body really withstand the power of the Sun Breathing method?"

"Of course I can't bear it." Shinobu Kocho said as a matter of course:

"But that's because the breathing method itself is not complete."

"You should know that the breathing method was originally designed by Xu Fu, a disciple of Louguan Dao of Taiqing Sect, based on the breathing technique of the pre-Qin period. It was specially designed for ghosts. Since it was designed specifically for ghosts, the breathing method is naturally not a power that humans should master. Therefore, after practicing the breathing method to the extreme, the practitioner will show a certain degree of ghost-likeness, which is the so-called stripes."

At this point, Shinobu Kocho looked at Tanjiro's forehead and said:

"Tanjiro has a very high talent for turning into a demon. When he becomes strong enough, the possibility of awakening the markings should be much higher than that of other swordsmen. It is even possible that he will directly turn into a demon, and change from a human to a demon."

Hearing that the breathing method was so dangerous, Tanjiro obviously backed off. He really wanted to become a swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps and have the power to protect others, but he didn't want to become a demon queen and hurt others.

"So, my idea is to restore the breathing method to its original form, from a move that could cause demonization, to the breathing technique of the Shenzhou Taiqing School that helps one cultivate life and rest." Shinobu Kocho continued:

"Reduce the overbearing part of the breathing method and make it a pure and gentle Taoist practice. Although this will slow down the practice of the breathing method, the upper limit of strength can be greatly improved. In addition, the difficulty of practicing powerful breathing methods such as the Sun Breathing Method will be reduced. People with talent like Tanjiro can practice now without worrying about the risk of demonization."
