Seiichiro Sakata gripped his Nichirin Blade, bracing against the heavy blows from the three muscle demons.
Ryuji could see a slight tremor in Seiichiro's arms—a sign of exhaustion.
The passengers in Seiichiro's carriage had already moved to safer carriages. Now, only Seiichiro and Ryuji remained in the fourth carriage.
Ryuji casually sat down in an empty seat and said to Seiichiro, "Seiichiro, are you alright? If you can't handle it, just say the word."
Seiichiro stubbornly gritted his teeth and replied, "I'm fine, Captain Ryuji. It's just that my techniques are too destructive; I might damage the carriage."
As soon as he finished speaking, one of the muscle demons suddenly pulled back its fist, gathering power before unleashing another blow at Seiichiro's Nichirin Blade. Seiichiro slid back two or three meters, finally regaining his balance only to spit out a mouthful of blood.
Ryuji had witnessed Sound Breathing techniques—extremely destructive area-of-effect attacks. Sound Breathing was one of the most destructive breathing Forms.
Using Sound Breathing techniques in the confined space of a train carriage was risky. Minor damage to the carriage was one thing, but it could potentially cause the carriages to detach.
Therefore, Seiichiro's inability to unleash his full power was understandable.
Ryuji stood up, instantly appearing before the three muscle demons. He unleashed Water Breathing, Fourth Form, Striking Tide.
"Water Breathing, Fourth Form, Striking Tide!"
Ryuji's Nichirin Blade danced like a dragon emerging from the water. He executed three consecutive strikes with effortless grace, targeting the necks of the three muscle demons.
The strikes were so fluid that Seiichiro only saw a single, incredibly intricate and winding slash. The trajectory of the blade was like a dancing dragon, narrowly grazing the necks of the three muscle demons.
The heads of the three muscle demons separated from their bodies, falling to the ground.
After dispatching the demons, Ryuji sheathed his Nichirin Blade and said to Seiichiro, "Stay here. There might be more demons. I'm going to check on Shinichi."
He then headed towards the second carriage.
The passengers in all the carriages, though unaware of Ryuji's group's identity, understood that these young people with swords had saved them.
When Ryuji arrived at the second carriage, Shinichi Murata had just beheaded the last demon.
Ryuji asked, "All clear? Any casualties?"
Shinichi Murata, finally coming out of his battle-focused state, nodded. "There were two. Both dealt with. No casualties so far."
Just then, Kujou Hattori arrived from the first carriage. Her presence indicated that she had also dealt with the situation there.
