From Demon Slayer: Thunder Swordsman

Even if humans may be at a disadvantage for a while, their own will will always be eternal and indestructible.

Just like the swordsmen in this world, with broken limbs, serious injuries, and even their lives hanging by a thread.

But the swordsmen in this world never hesitate to kill evil spirits.

So why did he hesitate?

Fatigue and pain are the norm for ghost hunting swordsmen in this world.

As the strongest Sound Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, what right does he have to give up!

He wasn't dead yet, so why should he feel like he was going to lose?

...

"Thunder Breathing - Third Form - Gathering Mosquitoes into Thunder - Thunder and Lightning!"

Along with the rhythm of breathing, the exploding thunder and lightning swept in again.

Chapter 33 Burning the Heart

Akaza stared with his huge eyes at this human swordsman who had clearly reached his limit.

He swung the Nichirin Sword in his hand once again and fought Kokushibo without losing the upper hand!

This human is truly a monster, although Akaza has never seen Boss Muzan use his full strength.

But at this moment, Akaza believes that this is the most powerful force in the world!

-

Looking at Kujo Tachibana who had "inexplicably" regained his vitality and fought with him for a long time, Kokushibo's heart began to get tired.

Before he knew it, he and the human swordsman had been fighting for almost a whole night.

The stars and the moon in the sky have set, and the pitch-black night without a trace of light also indicates that dawn is about to come.

"But why don't you die yet?"

"Why do you have to endure so much pain to struggle?"

"Do you think you would change anything?"

Kokushibo shouted in his heart.

He no longer wanted to say anything to this stubborn human swordsman.

All Kokushibo wanted now was to wait until the sun rose again.

Kill this human swordsman who is already covered in wounds and exhausted!

As dawn is approaching, every second that Kujo Tachibana survives will make Kokushibo feel suffocated!

"Breathing of the Moon - Sixth Form - Tokoyami Solitaire - Mujian!"

The huge crescent-shaped slash, carrying Kokushibo's boundless anger, slashed straight towards Kujo Tachibana.

Feeling the powerful blow in front of him, Kujo Tachibana did not waste his energy to resist.

He only sensed the direction of the attack, calculating in his mind the most energy-saving method while dodging the impending attack.

At this time, Kujo Tachibana's physical condition was not as optimistic as he appeared.

Every muscle in his body seemed to be emitting an aura of fatigue at this moment.

Even the Nichirin Sword in his hand had never felt so heavy to Kujo Tachibana.

Jiujo Tachibana is only relying on his willpower to keep moving this body that is about to collapse...

"It's almost... it's almost..."

Calculating the time for the sun to rise, Kujo Tachibana silently counted down in his heart.

...

"Breath of the Moon - Form Eight - Moon Dragon Wheel Tail!"

A slash over ten meters long came out from Kokushibo's "Hollow Crying God"!

The huge slashing blow went far along the ground towards Kujo Tachibana.

Feeling that Kujo Tachibana was like a "corpse" in his eyes.

At this moment, Kokushibo could no longer control himself and his face became ferocious.

"Go to hell! Human swordsman, no one can defeat me!"

Kujo Tachibana looked calmly at the slashing in front of him, feeling that his body could no longer move an inch.

There was no trace of emotion in those eyes, which were clearly black and white.

"There are about five minutes left until dawn... almost there..."

Jiujo Tachibana concentrated all his senses into his body.

Without any obstruction, in an instant, the perception penetrated the surface of the body and entered the inside of the body.

Feeling that at this moment, my heart seems a little weak and is beating slowly.

Kujo Tachibana did not hesitate at all. He controlled the muscles on his heart with all his strength and squeezed them hard!

Burn your soul and break through your limits!

...

This is a skill that consumes vitality used by the future Flame Pillar, Rengoku Kyojuro, when he faces Akaza in the play.

However, since Kujo Tachibana can only live to the age of 25 after the markings are activated, he is not completely sure.

I only have nine years of life left. Is it enough to last until dawn?

That's why I have been delaying it until now.

...

The direction of the world has changed because of me, and I don’t know whether the future will be better or worse with my participation.

But even if I die immediately, I should try my best to do something for this world!

...

Blue and yellow lightning burst out from Jiujiaoju's heart and spread throughout his body in an instant!

"Bang bang..."

Along with the thumping of his heart, the power that Kujo Tachibana had lost returned to his body in a more violent way!

Looking at Kokushibo, Kujo Tachibana roared, and the markings on his forehead and eyes suddenly flashed with lightning!

“Kuroshibo!!”

The Sun Blade was once again wrapped in lightning, and with a wave of Kujo Tachibana's hand, it transformed into a bright red sword!

With just a casual strike, he broke the huge slash from Kokushibo in front of him!

Feeling the oppression on Jiujiaoju at this moment!

Once again, Kokushibo saw the figure of that man in this human swordsman.

However, this time the feeling is particularly strong...

-

As the only spectator in this peak showdown.

Akaza's mood was very complicated.

The human swordsman in front of me has been fighting fiercely since last night, and it is almost dawn.

It is normal for the human body to be able to sustain such a high intensity and fierce battle.

But the human in front of him not only ignored these conventions.

Moreover, with a human body, the power that bursts out time and time again is becoming stronger and stronger!

Until now, he can even defeat Lord Kokushibo.

To be honest, Akaza was unwilling to disturb this sacred duel in his mind.

But looking at Kokushibo who had been beaten and was now completely suppressed by Kujo Tachibana, Akaza hesitated again.

After all, just last night, Lord Kokushibo saved him once...

While Akaza was still hesitating, Kujo Tachibana had already cut off Kokushibo's right arm that was holding the knife!

He turned around and chopped at Kokushibo's neck with a knife!

Kokushibo controlled the blades exposed on his body and barely blocked the attack.

At this moment, Kokushibo's expression became extremely ugly.

How many years has it been?

After that man died, Kokushibo has not met an opponent who can challenge him!

Until I met this human swordsman last night...

Now it can threaten my life!

No matter what, Kokushibo must not lose!

He just wants to win, no matter what the cost or what means he uses!

Having prepared himself mentally, Kokushibo turned around and shouted angrily at Akaza in the distance:

"Akuza!"

"Why don't you come and help? It will be dawn soon!"

"Are you planning to disobey Master Muzan's orders?"

Akaza looked up at the eastern sky. The sun might rise at any time!

Akaza did not dare to hesitate any longer, and finally made the choice to go against his own will and besiege Kujo Tachibana together with Kokushibo.

With the joining of Akaza, Kokushibo's pressure was instantly reduced, but Kujo Tachibana became precarious.

After all, Kujo Tachibana is not a demon. If he ignores Akaza, he can still kill himself.

Chapter 34 Awakening

Although Akaza's strength is still significantly inferior to his and Kokushibo's.

However, as the third upper moon and a demon, Akaza is definitely not a weakling!

If Kujo Tachibana really wanted to cut Akaza's neck by force.

That would only give Kokushibo a chance to seriously injure or even kill him!

If he can only take one of the two demons away, Kujo Tachibana will only choose Kokushibo!

The "three people" were briefly caught in a strange balance.

Until Kujo Tachibana, who was dancing on the tightrope, used his speed advantage to chop Akaza away with a sword, but was stabbed in the right chest by Kokushibo's backhand sword...

Kokushibo immediately showed a hint of joy. It wasn't easy!

The human swordsman is finally about to be killed. He has been stabbed in the lung and can no longer use breathing techniques!

Then he is doomed to lose!

But before Kokushibo could be happy for long, Kujo Tachibana's palm had already tightly grasped his right hand that was holding the knife!

Feeling the power brought by the last breath of thunder in his blood vessels, Jiujo Tachibana knew that he only had the strength for this last blow.

Holding his breath and concentrating, as the sun slowly rose, violent thunder continued to surge towards the red Sun Wheel Sword in Kujo Tachibana's hand!

"Thunder Breathing - Sixth Form - Lightning Boom Boom Modified - Thunder Flash!"

Kujo Tachibana's face enlarged, and the red sword, carrying the power of thunder, slashed at Kokushibo's neck one after another.

With his right hand tightly grasped by Kujo Tachibana, Kokushibo couldn't break free and could only watch the long sword chop at his neck again and again...

Until his neck was completely chopped into pieces!

At this point, Kujo Tachibana had already tried his best and was already exhausted. His eyes gradually became empty, and he fell to the ground on his back, completely losing consciousness.

Kokushibo's head fell to the ground, and his expression suddenly became confused.
