"Why can't I be here?"
Hansen couldn't help but chuckle, retorting, "As I said, I'm here to kill demons."
"With your efficiency, by the time you find a demon, it'll be dawn."
With that, he closed his eyes, and his divine sense spread out.
In an instant, the energy flow, personnel distribution, and architectural structure of the entire Yoshiwara entertainment district were clearly presented in his mind.
Soon, Hansen "saw" two exceptionally powerful energy sources belonging to demons.
One was hidden in a top-tier brothel called "Kyogokuya," disguised as an Oiran.
The other was like a parasite, lurking within the first energy source's body.
"Found them."
Hansen opened his eyes and strode towards Kyogokuya.
"Hey! Where are you going, you idiot! Are you crazy?!" Uzui Tengen urgently shouted.
"To kill demons," Hansen replied without looking back.
"Wait for me!" Seeing this, Tanjiro, no longer caring about the makeup on his face, immediately followed.
Zenitsu and Inosuke exchanged glances and had no choice but to follow.
Uzui Tengen was so angry he stomped his feet, but he was helpless and could only follow closely behind with his three wives...
At Kyogokuya, Daki, the Oiran, was lazily lying in her room, enjoying the service of her maid.
She had just "eaten" a disobedient colleague and was in a good mood.
Suddenly, she frowned, sensing a powerful aura approaching her without any concealment.
Is it a Hashira from the Demon Slayer Corps?
Hmph, perfect timing, she'll make a good snack.
Daki licked her lips, her figure flickered, and she appeared on the rooftop.
She saw him.
A black-haired young man was walking step by step down the main street of the entertainment district.
The surrounding crowd seemed not to see him, automatically parting a path for him.
"Oh? He's quite handsome," Daki smiled enchantingly. "Little brother, it's so late, are you here to play with big sister?"
Her voice carried a charm, and at the same time, several sashes shot out silently from under her kimono like venomous snakes, ready to instantly twist this ignorant man into pieces of flesh.
However, those sashes, capable of cutting through gold and jade, seemed to hit an invisible wall when they approached within one meter of Hansen's body, unable to advance even an inch further.
"Hm?" The smile on Daki's face froze.
"Is this Upper Rank Six?" Hansen looked up at Daki on the rooftop, his eyes filled with disappointment. "Too weak, I don't even have the desire to act."
He casually grabbed a sash.
That sash, made of Daki's flesh and blood, became soft and powerless in his hand, as if it were real fabric.
"Let go!" Daki was both shocked and enraged, activating her power to try and retract the sash, but found that it was as if it had been welded in place, not moving at all.
"You're still hiding one inside your body, aren't you?" Hansen said indifferently. "Call it out too, otherwise, you won't have another chance."
"Brother!"
Daki felt an unprecedented crisis and shrieked.
The next second, her back squirmed, and a gaunt, ugly-faced demon holding two blood-colored sickles emerged from her body.
It was the other Upper Rank Six, Gyutaro.
"You... you dare bully my sister!" As soon as Gyutaro appeared, he let out a venomous roar, and an ominous, bloody stench instantly permeated the air.
"Blood Demon Art: Flying Blood Sickle!"
He swung his twin sickles, and two slashes made of highly poisonous blood, like boomerangs, attacked Hansen from two tricky angles!
At the same time, Daki also launched an attack.
"Blood Demon Art: Eight-Layered Sash Slash!"
Countless sashes from all directions sealed off all of Hansen's escape routes!
This was their famous joint attack, and over the past century, countless Hashira had met their demise under this technique!
However, Hansen did not retreat; instead, he took a step forward, as if strolling through a garden, facing the overwhelming offensive.
"Seeking death!" Gyutaro's eyes gleamed fiercely.
"Idiot!" Daki's lips curled into a cruel arc.
In the distance, Uzui Tengen, Tanjiro, and the others, who had just arrived, saw this scene and their hearts jumped into their throats!
"Get out of the way!" Uzui Tengen instinctively yelled.
But just as the blood sickles and sashes were about to touch Hansen, his figure swayed slightly like a reflection in water, becoming semi-transparent.
Dimensional Walk.
Rip—!
Gyutaro's poisonous blood sickles and Daki's deadly sashes passed through Hansen's phantom without any obstruction, fiercely impacting the street behind him.
Accompanied by a loud bang, a terrifying crater exploded in the ground, and smoke and rubble shot into the sky!
The brother and sister's attack missed, and their pupils sharply contracted.
Where is he?!
"Are you looking for me?"
A cold and calm voice seemed to whisper in Daki's ear.
Daki's hair stood on end instantly; she turned her head in utter horror, meeting a pair of emotionless platinum pupils.
Hansen had appeared beside her at some unknown point, so close that it made her hair stand on end.
"Get lost!" Daki's instincts overpowered her fear, and countless sashes erupted from her body, lunging at Hansen, who was within arm's reach, like a meat grinder!
This time, Hansen did not dodge again; lightning flickered in his platinum eyes!
Crackling—
Dazzling lightning suddenly erupted, striking all the sashes attacking him, breaking them into pieces, and turning them into dust that scattered in the night wind.
"You, you, you, you... what did you do?!"
Daki, who was caught in the blast, instantly had her hair explode into an afro. Covered in dust, she no longer possessed her initial beauty, and she spat out a puff of black smoke, almost being electrocuted into a charred lump on the spot.
"How dare you bully my sister!" From behind, Gyutaro's roar came, his figure already transformed into a twisted green shadow, his twin sickles carrying venomous curses, striking directly at the back of Hansen's neck!
Hansen didn't even turn his head.
"Be destroyed."
He raised his hand again, and this time, a black energy orb, as dark as ink, spun in his palm, appearing out of thin air.
A new ability just copied from the Naruto World, the ultimate condensation of Yin-Yang and Five Elements power—
truth-seeking orbs.
The black orb in Hansen's palm vanished as if teleporting, and then, in the next instant, it appeared eerily before Gyutaro's blood sickle!
Clang—!
With a crisp sound, the part where the blood sickle, capable of cutting steel, touched the black orb seemed to be erased like a pencil mark, a piece missing out of thin air!
Gyutaro's eyes widened to their limit, instinctively wanting to retreat, but his body felt as if it were pressed down by billions of tons of weight, unable to move even a single finger.
He could only watch as the ominous black orb irresistibly pressed against his body!
Starting from his fingertips, then his palm, then his arm... every part that came into contact with the truth-seeking orbs was instantly obliterated, turning into nothingness!
"Ah... ah ah..."
