Zongman: Capturing the goddess from Demon Slayer

After careful consideration, Muzan Kibutsuji decided to conduct an on-site investigation.

He didn't believe that there would be Demon Slayers in this era strong enough to instantly kill Upper Moon Six, leaving them no chance to even send a warning.

Based on the Demon Slayer Corps' performance against Upper Moon demons in the past century...

66 + : 0.

Muzan Kibutsuji absolutely refused to believe that Upper Moon Six was dead.

Of course, a significant part of this was Muzan Kibutsuji's fear of facing the truth and his unwillingness to believe it.

For safety's sake, Muzan Kibutsuji decided to send Upper Moon Three, Akaza, to scout ahead.

After all, the only demons Muzan Kibutsuji could currently use were the Upper Moon demons, and among them, only Doma and Akaza resembled humans.

Doma was preoccupied with the Eternal Paradise Cult, leaving only Akaza, who was constantly searching for the Blue Spider Lily and had no fixed residence.

If Akaza discovered that there truly was a powerful figure in Yoshiwara, he could prepare to flee in advance.

"Akaza, Upper Moon Six's position has been lost, suspected dead or a traitor. Go and see what's going on."

Akaza, who was tens of kilometers away searching for the Blue Spider Lily, received the message from Muzan Kibutsuji and was puzzled.

"Upper Moon Six disappeared?"

"Interesting!"

"I want to see what kind of strong person is in Yoshiwara!"

"Ha!"

Akaza rushed towards Yoshiwara at full speed.

Tokyo Imperial Capital.

Kyojuro Rengoku was taking Tanjiro, who came here to receive training, to the train station.

He received clear information that the passengers on a train called the Infinity Train had all disappeared overnight!

It was suspected that there was a demon present!

The two arrived at the train station platform.

Tanjiro, the country bumpkin, looked at the black train that had just stopped in front of him and exclaimed in surprise.

"This, this, this... what kind of creature is this?!"

"It can even make such a roaring sound."

"Oh! There are even people coming out of its body!"

"Rengoku-san, do you think it might be the guardian deity of this city?"

Hearing Tanjiro's words, Kyojuro Rengoku laughed heartily and said:

"This is not a guardian deity."

"It's just a larger vehicle."

"It has no life."

"Let's go, to the opposite platform. Our target is not this train, but the one still parked in the depot and has not yet departed!"

Kyojuro Rengoku pulled the thoughtful Tanjiro towards another platform.

Ten minutes later, a train with the word "Infinity" written on the steel plaque of the engine officially departed, and the engine drove out of the depot, emitting billowing smoke.

Soon, it arrived at the platform where Kyojuro Rengoku and Tanjiro were.

At this moment, there were more than just the two of them on the platform, but also hundreds of passengers waiting anxiously here.

Looking at the group of people rushing into the Infinity Train, Tanjiro asked Rengoku Kyojuro worriedly:

"Rengoku-san, since we are going to kill demons on this train, wouldn't it be bad to have so many humans..."

Rengoku Kyojuro looked at the Infinity Train in front of him and said, "We are just Demon Slayers, we cannot stop people's wishes, and we cannot interfere with the operation of society."

"All we can do is protect the humans in the train as much as possible."

"Don't let the demons hurt them."

"The Demon Slayer Corps has been doing this for thousands of years."

"It is very difficult to make changes in a short period of time."

"It's getting late, let's get on the train."

Tanjiro remained silent, holding the ticket in his hand and boarded the train with Kyojuro Rengoku.

On the other side, .

Tamayo had given Mei a delicate makeover to ensure that Muzan Kibutsuji wouldn't recognize her on the street.

Akira then took Mei away from the mansion and went shopping at Senso-ji Temple.

As for Gyutaro, he was handed over to Yushiro to let him experience the nightlife of the Imperial Capital.

Having left the red-light district for the first time, Mei was very interested in everything at Senso-ji Temple.

Looking here and there for a while, looking there and there for a while.

Touching this, moving that.

She was simply a lively and innocent, curious beautiful girl.

"Wow ~"

"Akira, this is so pretty, I want to buy this!"

"Akira, this is so interesting, I want to play this!"

"Wuu wuu wuu, Akira, this is so hard to hit, can you help me shoot it down!"

"Akira, what is that big box? Why are people sitting inside?"

"Is it a monster?"

Akira, with various gifts hanging on his body, rubbed Mei's head and said:

"This is a train, let's go, let's take the train first."

"After taking the train, I'll take you to ride the train!"

Akira held Mei's soft hand and boarded the streetcar.

Woo—

The roaring sound of the train starting up sounded, and Mei looked over curiously, but didn't see anything.

The train station was separated by two streets, completely blocked.

"Akira, did you hear that?"

"The sound just now was so loud, what was that sound?"

"A train is also a means of transportation. You can understand it as several streetcars connected together."

Hearing Akira's explanation, Mei became even more interested in the train.

"That's the train..."

After all, she used to be a courtesan, and Mei had heard of trains, but she had never seen one.

But now that she's with Akira, she has the opportunity to see the train!

Inside the streetcar, Akira looked in the direction the train had just traveled.

Although separated by two streets, it didn't affect his ability to sense that there was a creature suspected of being a demon in the train's engine, as well as Kyojuro Rengoku and Tanjiro sitting on the train.

The Infinity Train?

In this Infinity Train incident, which is almost a year ahead of schedule, will Upper Moon Three, Akaza, still appear this time?

If so, with Tanjiro and Kyojuro Rengoku's current strength, I'm afraid Kyojuro Rengoku will still die.

Tanjiro's current strength is not much different from the original, and he has only maintained Total Concentration Breathing, Constant.

But Kyojuro Rengoku has declined.

At this rate, it would be less to die one, and it might kill two.

Because there are still nine hours before dawn.

It seems very necessary to go there...

A minute later, the streetcar arrived at the train station.

Akira and Mei got off the streetcar.

Akira said to Mei:

"Mei, come with me, let's go save people!"

"Save people?"

"Yes!"

......

On the Infinity Train, Tanjiro and Kyojuro Rengoku had already been checked and fell into a dream.

Because Kyojuro Rengoku was strong, even in his dream, his body could be vigilant to the outside world.

He grabbed the neck of the threatened child on the opposite side, preventing him from further destroying the "spiritual core" in Kyojuro Rengoku's dream.

Tanjiro, on the other hand, was reminded by his reflection in the water, and Nezuko used her Blood Demon Art • Exploding Blood to burn the rope connecting the dream.

Causing Tanjiro to wake up by committing suicide.
