Rihu's Pit Brother's Journey

Even after learning the Breath of the Sun, Tanjiro still has difficulty defeating Black Death Mou.

The gap is really too big, even for the most powerful genius, it is difficult to accumulate over time.

Although it is loathed by Hei Si Mou himself, difficult to surpass, and shaped by Ji Guoyuan, he still uses it, constantly practicing and tempering, constantly fighting human and even non-human swordsmen, The proficient swordsmanship condensed by time at that time cannot be matched by novices who have just come into contact with the breath of the sun.

Even so—even with the despair that he already knew that he would fail, Tanjiro still refused to give up easily, and stood up after being knocked down again and again. Hei Si Mou, all admired in their hearts.

By this time, he had finally acknowledged the fact that Tanjiro was Enichi's chosen successor.

"I understand, I'll give you a happy ending. If you honed it for another 300 years, you may become the successor of the Breath of the Sun. Even so... you still can't surpass Ji Guo Yuan Yi. Really, what a pity. In the end Prove me right, Ji Guo Yuan Yi."

The blood flowing from his head had blurred Tanjiro's vision, he looked at the ghost in a thick red background... the ghost who could even be regarded as half of his instructor stood in front of him holding a sword.

In fact, his hands were already shaking, his tired wrists could no longer support the weight of the sword, and he stood entirely by willpower.

"No...I don't know...what kind of comparison that is...but you...must be wrong...!"

Tanjiro squeezed the words out of his lungs.Even though he was in such a mess, his spirit was so firm and powerful that it was hard to move his eyes away.

"No matter what the reason is... the ghost king you support is Wumi, the embodiment of evil, your choice is wrong!"

Hei Si Mou looked at him, and unconsciously said what was in his heart: "I know what you said."

Tanjiro: "...?!"

Hei Si Mou continued: "In my whole life...whether as a human or as a ghost, I have never felt a moment of happiness. The only time I have a relaxed time is when I am with my teacher. After losing him, I will I realized that everything was meaningless to me. When I knew Wu Mi... When I really understood Wu Mi, I decided to support him. No matter whether he is an evil person or not, no matter what crimes he committed, no matter whether he is, in Abandoning me after obtaining the eternal life I long for... I decided to fight for his ideal."

Tanjiro was in a daze, and felt like fainting, but he supported himself to listen.He knew that this was his only chance to get to know his enemy... and his mentor.

"Just because, when I was about to give up my own life, he told me that he needed me. Just because his desire was to live in the simplest and purest way. I know he is not my teacher, maybe even a teacher The most disgusting type of person, but I recognize his ideals. I myself... don’t have any ideals, and I don’t have any desire to live. The only wish I look forward to has long been unable to be realized. So at the very least, let me realize his wish."

Tanjiro's tears and blood rolled down: "Recklessly living without regard for other people's lives is not living at all!"

Hei Si Mou raised his sharp blade: "I admit, you are right, the successor of Yuan Yi. Maybe I just don't repent."

Promises will be fulfilled.

He has promised not to betray Wu Mi, so even if he is an enemy of everyone, he will not betray Wu Mi.

All he can do is hand over the Sun's Breathing Method to Yuanyi's successor completely. No matter whether he can successfully transform into a ghost or not, he has done everything he can and no longer owes anyone else.

...ah, maybe wrong.

He thought so when the blade of Kuroshimu pierced into Tanjirou's heart and blood spattered his face.

...he still has it, the one who owes it.I'm sorry, Kagome, and the witches who have been trying to save him all this time, but in the end, he was still an out-and-out evil spirit, and he failed their expectations.

...Perhaps at that time, eating the last shrine maiden was the right choice.Since this person is a ghost, why bother to be pretentious, why sacrifice her desire?

Black Death Mou drew out his sword, walked up to Tanjiro who was lying on the ground, half-kneeled and clamped Tanjiro's jaw with one hand to force him to open his mouth, cut his own hand, and let the evil blood from the ghost king flow down Fingertips drip.

"If you don't become a ghost, I will kill you. I will not waste a single drop of your flesh and blood, and will eat you completely. You will be... the No.1 that I eat after I become a ghost. "

Do not……

Tanjiro's will has begun to blur, and he feels sad.

No, become a ghost.

For the sake of his dead comrades, for the sake of defeating Wu Mi, he must not become a ghost!

For... the ghost in front of him, he can't become a ghost!

If you think you are an evil spirit, why have you never eaten people before?If you are determined to protect Wu Mi, why teach him the breathing method of the day?This person... this person is not an evil spirit, his heart is still human.If you become a ghost, you will be controlled by Wu Mi, and even hurt your former teammates; if you don't become a ghost, the ghost that still has human hearts will eat you and lose the last human hearts.

I... don't want to become a ghost, I don't want to die, I don't want... this person to become a complete evil ghost.

At this moment, when he was on the verge of death, this gentle young man still thought of others instead of himself.

Perhaps because of this, his strong 'mind' resonated with a certain being.

[I... must kill Wu Mi.But I can't do it, I don't want...to let my elder brother die.Brother, he... even though he is an evil ghost, he still has a gentle heart. I don't want my brother to lose his heart. 】

Someone's tears flowed down Tanjirou's eyes.

"...you...you are so gentle, but you have to hurt others."

He said.

Hei Si Mou is alert, this is impossible!The stronger the swordsman, the longer it will take to transform. It is impossible for this young man to transform into a ghost so quickly.Could it be...he, like his sister, is resistant to the blood of the ghost king?

Realizing that the situation was wrong, Hei Si Mou quickly let go of his hands and backed away, retreating a distance and holding a blade ready to attack at any time.

Tanjirou's body stood up staggeringly, and he continued to speak while whispering.

"You used to help so many people, but in the end, no one saved you. It was also at that time...after you became a ghost, they blamed you, insulted you, and forgot who saved them when they were dying Who gave them the rights and qualifications! Unforgivable, unforgivable, unforgivable, obviously ignorant of everything... Only these, I can't forgive!"

Tanjiro raised his head, it was a pair of beast-like, or very similar to Wu Mi's terrifying pupils!

Hei Si Mou was shocked, how could it be possible!He didn't give much blood, but with just that little blood, this young man actually evolved to the ghost king level that is close to Wu Mi in an instant?What a qualification!

Assuming that the blood of the ghost king is a rare virus or bacterial microorganism that changes the existence of the human body, then people with natural antibodies like Nezuko may also have people who are very suitable for virus survival and can be easily transformed into ghosts.

It is impossible to determine whether it is a natural constitution, or caused by repeated infection due to repeated battles with ghosts. Tanjiro's ghost transformation speed is too fast, completely exceeding Hei Shimou's prediction.What's even more frightening is that under this transformation, ordinary ghosts will enter starvation mode due to lack of energy, which is why ghosts lose their minds and eat people around them.It can be seen from Tanjiro's appearance that he doesn't consume too much energy, and he can even maintain his sanity!

— Variant.It can only be explained in this way.

The mutated new type of ghost in front of him is beyond anyone's understanding and imagination.

Or maybe it's at the soul level, and some metamorphosis has affected the physical body.

"I can't understand, I can't understand, I can't understand - I can't accept and I can't understand! I don't want to bear it anymore, I won't let anyone hurt you, and I won't let you continue to hurt yourself, brother."

——! ! !

Then, when someone who was suspected to be Tanjiro, but who didn't know what it was, said those words, Kuroshimou froze all over.

To him, this was the most terrifying and unimaginably nasty joke.

Following Guoyuan?No, he died long ago, and the Son of God only has the lifespan of a mortal. That man, who had become an old man, died in front of him!So what is this thing in front of you?

When he saw Tanjiro's posture clearly, even breathing became difficult.

The footsteps are slightly open, the hands are hanging on the sides, dragging the hilt as if the sword body is an extension of the arm - this is a posture that Yuanyi often has, a quite natural standing posture, but in fact he can attack abruptly from any angle 'Natural body'.

"No...impossible, you are... already dead, I have already buried you! You are already dead, Ji Guoyuanyi!"

'Tanjiro' walked towards him naturally, one step down, another step down, each step seemed to land on his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe and move.It was as if he had been poisoned, his arms, hands, and fingers were all stiff and numb.

In the end, Hei Si Mou's sword slipped from his hand, and he couldn't even hold his sword.He was trembling like a terrified toddler at the scariest ghost story, gripped by looming terror.

In the end, that 'person' walked in front of him, and even his appearance changed accordingly!

Hei Si Mou looked at all this dully, he was sure that he must be having the most terrifying nightmare.

"My lord, are you feeling sorry for me? It doesn't matter, I really want to see my lord again after that day, but I can't move freely, and you can't hear what I say. Now, it's finally okay. My lord, I'm so happy. So..."

Cold hands that belonged to evil spirits, with long and sharp nails caressed his face.

"I can take back my lord brother and kill Wu Mi without any scruples. This way my lord brother doesn't have to die. I'm so happy, my lord brother."

"Why are you trembling, elder brother? Smile, why don't you smile at Yuanyi anymore? We can always be together in the future."
