From Demon Slayer: Thunder Swordsman

"Swish"

This second-level cursed spirit "Pink Jellyfish" was relatively resilient. It took three strikes from Zenyuan Ju before it began to gradually dissipate.

However, looking at the "Spell Sword - Infinity" in his hand, Zenin Tachibana already frowned...

His cursed power was still too weak. It was okay to deal with sorcerers. After all, sorcerers were all human beings. Even if their cursed power had been strengthened, they were still in the mortal stage. Even if he only relied on the strength of his flesh, he could still blow up the sorcerer's body.

But the key point is that cursed spirits are not like sorcerers. To destroy cursed spirits, you can only rely on the power of "curse", that is, "curse power".

However, his current level of spell power may not even reach that of a normal fourth-level sorcerer.

Therefore, because of this, the "Ritual Long Sword - Infinity" that he manifested with his cursed power, even though it has damage bonus when facing cursed spirits, but when encountering cursed spirits of a slightly higher level, the "Infinity" lethality still seems a bit weak due to the weakness of his own cursed power.

This is only a second-level curse spirit. What if it is changed to a first-level curse spirit, or a special-level curse spirit?

Can his long sword technique - Infinity - break through defense?

Zenin Tachibana estimated that if facing the special grade ones, with his current level of cursed power, he might not be able to do anything about them and could only stare blankly!

In fact, what Zenin Ju was thinking was correct. No matter how powerful he was, if his spell power was insufficient at this moment, he would still not be able to subdue those high-level cursed spirits.

Unless he also learns from the tyrant of the sky, Fushiguro Shige, and wears a set of special-grade cursed tools.

At this time, Zenin Ju is also able to fight against the special-grade cursed spirit!

If Zenin Tachibana does not want to rely on cursed tools to fight cursed spirits in the future, he can only find a way to improve his cursed power level.

Chapter 7 The mute speaks

When Maruyama Shoji led the Hu Ke Gu Liu team, half of the team members chopped their way up the stairs to the top floor and pushed open the door, they saw this scene...

The white-haired boy held a long sword in his hand, standing on the edge of the roof. Not far away from him, a hole that penetrated the five floors appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Next to the hole was a pink transparent body of a cursed spirit, which was dissipating in the wind...

The young man looked back, his pair of sky-blue eyes emitting flowing light, and he looked at the people who had just arrived with a smile on his face.

“Five-five…Gojo Satoru!!”

Maruyama Shoji cried out in shock. At this moment, he actually mistook the young man in front of him for the man he had met once before!

The man who shouted "I am the only one in the world!" is also the most powerful sorcerer of the contemporary era.

Born with the "Six Eyes" physique, a special-grade sorcerer who has mastered unlimited techniques - Gojo Satoru! !

...

Kyoto-Zenin House.

In the second echelon of the armed forces, several third and fourth level warlocks were gathered together, talking about the most sensational gossip in the Zen family recently.

"Have you heard? Wasn't there a mute in our family before? I think his name was Zenin Ju... He was Master Shan's child. When he followed the Bodyshell Team to perform an exorcism mission a few days ago, he killed two second-level cursed spirits by himself!"

"No way? Don't be kidding! Zenin Tachibana is only twelve years old this year, right? I don't believe it! How can he be so strong? And his talent for cursed power has always been poor, okay! Can he kill a second-level cursed spirit? And two of them! I don't believe it..."

"Hehe... Yongren! Don't disbelieve me. I have been recuperating these days in the clan. I know more about this matter than you do. Just a few days ago, when the body shell stayed in the team and returned from the mission, the head of the family personally met with Zenin Tachibana."

"The two of them stayed in the room for at least a few hours. I tell you, you are in trouble! I told you to look down on Master Shan and his family before! You always call Zenin Ju a cripple, right? Fortunately, I never provoked him, and you... hehe."

Upon hearing this, several people at the scene changed their expressions instantly!

Yes, they were all members of the group of children who had mocked, discriminated against, and bullied the adults.

One of them said anxiously, "It's over! Zenyuan Ju can kill a second-level cursed spirit, so if he wants to kill me, it will be like killing a chicken! No, I think we have to take the initiative to apologize and beg for forgiveness from Zenyuan Ju and his family..."

But the young man named Asahi Yuto frowned and directly retorted: "Are we wrong? Wasn't Zenin Tachibana a waste back then? Even now, he is still a cripple who can't speak!"

"Then I said, apart from Zenin Tachibana, his two sisters, Zenin Maki and Zenin Shinei, aren't they useless? And we weren't the first to say this, it was their father, Zenin Ogi-sama, who mentioned it many times."

"Their father often comments on his children like this. Let's talk about what's wrong. Besides, shouldn't losers and cripples be bullied? Our Chanyuan family's tradition has never tolerated losers!"

After saying this, Asahi Yuto slowed down again, and then continued: "As for Zenin Tachibana, I say you don't have to worry too much. A second-level sorcerer is nothing great. I am also preparing to apply for the second-level sorcerer assessment from the family."

"Besides, I have a good relationship with Master Shan of the Zen Temple. If it weren't for the fact that Master Shan's children were so untalented, he would have probably become the head of the family! Don't worry, when Master Shan comes back, I will go to see him and explain the matter clearly."

"I believe that with Lord Shan's temper, he won't take such a small matter to heart. We just need to be careful when we meet that cripple next time."

Asahi Yuto was still speaking with great confidence, but he didn't know that Zenin Shan, who was riding at full speed to return to the clan, was about to face a beating that he had been waiting for for more than ten years!

-

That afternoon, Zenin Shan, who had rushed back to the Zenin clan on the fastest "Shinkansen", returned to their courtyard with a happy look on his face and could not wait to find Zenin Ju.

Looking at the smiling family of four in front of him, Zenyuan Shan habitually displayed his dignity as a biological father and said in a deep voice:

"Ju, come with me!"

Zenin Ju's mouth curled up slightly, looking at the real loser in front of him, he slowly raised his hands and crossed his ten fingers and kneaded them.

With the sound of crisp fingertips, Zenin Jue also came in front of Zenin Shan, looked directly into the eyes of this despicable man, and spoke in public for the first time:

"What a disgusting man... Promise me that from now on, don't appear in front of us again, okay?"

"Breathing the same air as you makes me feel sick. The air you exhale is filled with cowardice and incompetence."

In an instant, the courtyard was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop!

...

"Ju, he spoke?" Zenin Mai, with her big eyes wide open, was the first to break the silence and said in disbelief.

The usually calm elder sister, Zenin Maki, was so shocked that she couldn't speak, while the mother of the three, Zenin Arisa, had tears welling up in her eyes...

It turns out that her child is not mute!

However, at this moment, only one person paid attention to what Zenyuan Ju had just said, and the person in charge was our Lord "Zenyuan Shan".

"You rebellious son! I will kill you today..."

After saying this, Zenin Shan instantly grasped the hilt of the knife at his waist. At this moment, Zenin Shan, whose pain was touched by Zenin Ju, no longer had any family affection in his heart... well, although he didn't have any in the first place.

At this moment, Zenyuan Shan just wanted to kill the beast in front of him with one sword, just like him in the original plot, he swung the long sword in his hand mercilessly at his two daughters, just to bury the two daughters who brought him endless "shame"!

Fortunately, Zenin Tachibana has not watched the anime "Jujutsu Kaisen" and does not know how the subsequent plot will develop, otherwise if Zenin slapped Lao Deng today, it would be far more than just a beating!

Even the Zen family should be thankful for this...

Chapter 8: Changes in Strength

A loud "bang..." in the setting sun broke the tranquility of the Zen temple's home.

Everyone turned their eyes to the small courtyard of Chanyuan Shan's family.

...

Lao Deng, who had just swung his knife at Zenyuan Ju, had not yet waited for him to draw the long knife at his waist. Zenyuan Ju, who was no longer forbearing, kicked Lao Deng in the chest, kicking him out of the room, through the wall and into the courtyard.

Zenin Tachibana slowly walked out from the hole in the wall and began his own magic.

Zenin Tachibana, holding a long sword, looked at Zenin Shan, who was lying on the ground with two broken ribs, using his magical power to stabilize his bones and struggling to stand up, and said sarcastically:

"You think you're qualified to use a knife? Today I'm going to teach you how to use a knife!"

...

After standing up to calm his breath and wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Chanyuanshan's face became extremely ferocious.

"You shameless little bastard!"

"The love of falling flowers..."

This is a secret method of concentrating the whole body's cursed energy to attack. It is a high-end secret technique of curse that is only mastered by the three major families in the world of curse.

Zenin fan swung the sharp long sword in the style of Iai towards Zenin Tachibana's neck. The speed at which the long sword was swung was so fast that it was impossible to see any trace at all in the eyes of ordinary people.

But looking at the knife in front of him that was as fast as lightning, Zenin Tachibana showed a look of contempt. In front of him, this kind of Iai technique was like showing off his sword in front of Guan Gong.

"Thunder Breathing - Type 1 - Thunderbolt Flash!"

Accompanied by a loud thunderous sound, Zenin Ju, who was standing in a relaxed posture, completely accumulated strength by controlling his muscles inside his body at the moment when the long sword was approaching!

With a light "swish" sound, Zenin Ju's long sword was unsheathed and then sheathed again. His movements were so fast that people could not see them at all.

But at this moment, the long sword in Chanyuan Shan's hand was broken into two pieces right in the middle of the blade!

A trace of cold sweat began to flow straight down from the temple of Zen Yuan Fan, and a breath of death and fear burst out from all the pores on his body...

Don't move! If you move again, you will die!

This was a warning from the body to Chanyuan Shan. Even though Chanyuan Shan's reason told him that he had to move now, this body, which was emitting fear from deep within its cells, firmly suppressed Chanyuan Shan's right to control the body.

Still standing there motionless, Zenyuan Shan was like a lamb to be slaughtered in front of Zenyuan Ju at this moment, unable to even cast a spell, and without the slightest power of resistance...

Zenin Tachibana looked expressionless as he looked at the man in front of him who was so frightened by his sword will that he couldn't move at all, and said softly:

"A cowardly person, controlling a cowardly knife, likes to swing the knife at opponents who look weaker than you, right? You are really unworthy of using a knife!"

As soon as Zenin Tachibana finished speaking, the long sword in his hand was unsheathed again.

"Huh..."

The deep red blood gushed out from the broken blood vessels, and after a slight delay of less than a second, it washed onto the ground from the broken limb of Zen Fan's arm along with his broken arm.

In just a few dozen seconds, the scene before our eyes developed into what it is today.

The three women in the room finally reacted!

"Ju..." The mother, Zenin Arisa, covered her mouth with her hands and looked terrified, and could no longer utter a word.

Sisters Zenin Maki and Zenin Shinei were a little uncomfortable with the bloody scene before them and frowned tightly, but they did not beg for mercy for their biological father.

It's really...the painful memories that the Zen fan has brought them over the years are too many!

Even Zenin Ju, who never regarded him as a father, couldn't stand it, let alone the two parties involved. As for Zenin Shan...the two sisters, there was not a trace of family affection at all.

...

Looking at the Zen fan with a painful face, covering the broken arm.

Zenyuan Ju said the last words to him: "If you didn't kill me just now, I might just beat you up. Now cutting off one of your arms is just a slight punishment for you!"

"I don't like the house rules of the Chanyuan family, but I'm not going to change them. From now on, our family of four will leave the Chanyuan family, and you! Chanyuan Fan! From today on, you will have nothing to do with the four of us!"

-

After saying this, Zenin Ju turned around and looked at the three women behind him, and said softly: "Come with me! Today I will take you away from this corrupt family."

Hearing this, sisters Zenin Maki and Zenin Shinei ran over without saying a word, stood beside Zenin Tachibana, and looked at their mother with anticipation in their eyes.

Looking at the three children waiting for her, Zenin Arisa hesitated for only a moment, but when she thought back to all the bullying that their family of four had suffered in the Zenin clan over the years.

Zenin Arisa made her decision in an instant. She wanted to take these children and leave the Zenin family!

Seeing Zenin Arisa also coming over, Zenin Tachibana just smiled, then looked at the three people and said:

"When I was out exorcising spirits, I bought a property in Tokyo through an agent. You don't need to bring anything with you. We can just leave this Zenin family."

"I know you have a lot of questions. I will tell you everything when we get to Tokyo. Now... follow me! You are all free."

-

Zenin Ju brought the three women with him and, after cutting off the hand of the Zenin family head's younger brother, walked out in a swagger, and no one stopped them along the way.

Not until they walked out of the Zen temple's gate did the three girls look behind them together... the cage that had imprisoned them for so long!

But today, you came out so easily?

It's still a little hard to believe that Zenin has a yarn...

But of course the truth is not that simple!

Everything that happened today was tacitly approved by the head of the Zenin family, Zenin Naohito!

It was because, a few days ago, Zenin Tachibana had pressed Zenin Naohito to the ground in his room with his physical strength, and rubbed him thoroughly...

As the head of the Zenin family and the strongest person, how can Zenin Naohito come and stop Zenin Tachibana when he himself cannot defeat Zenin Tachibana?

As a special first-class sorcerer, Naohito Zenin is naturally very powerful, but his "projection spell" technique is difficult to use against Zenin Tachibana, and he is suppressed by Zenin Tachibana.

Projection spell: Divide one second into 24 equal parts, use your own field of vision as the field of view, and then imitate the movements designed in advance within the field of view. The designed movements cannot be corrected during the process.

If you make an action that disregards the laws of physics and the trajectory of your actions, you will be frozen for one second. On the contrary, if you successfully complete your own action, your opponent must also make the same action, otherwise the opponent will be frozen for one second...

It should be noted that the two steps of projecting the spell need to be completed within one second, and the "preset action" cannot be corrected midway. Once the action imitation fails, it will be frozen for one second. Therefore, when designing the action, the user must take into account all factors that hinder the completion of the action as much as possible, such as the opponent's counterattack!

This also means that using projection spells requires extremely strong computing power, breaking down inspiration, time concepts and battle predictions frame by frame. Even if ordinary people have mastered this spell, they are simply unable to complete the calculations. This is why Zenin Naoya was hailed as a genius when he was a child.

...

It might sound complicated, and it is...
