With a single swing of his blade, the four manifestations were decapitated simultaneously.
"Too strong—Young Master Ryuya is too terrifying!"
Hantengu trembled in a corner as he watched.
Since Zohakuten, Aizetsu, Karaku, and Sekido individually posed no threat to Young Master Ryuya, he could only rely on his trump card.
Hantengu's eyes gleamed with excitement.
Even if he couldn't win—even if death was inevitable—he would never wait passively. He would fight with everything he had!
So, come forth… Zohakuten!
The severed remains of Zohakuten, Aizetsu, Sekido, and Karaku began to fuse grotesquely before everyone's eyes.
Flesh and blood twisted together like a heap of writhing mud.
What made it truly revolting was the constant squirming, like something crawling out of a filthy toilet.
"Is that a bug? How disgusting—how ugly!"
Daki immediately turned away, unable to bear the sight. Such filth was an assault on her eyes.
Gyutaro gently covered his sister's eyes, silently caring for her.
Gyokko, however, showed no discomfort. Instead, a bold idea formed in his mind—perhaps he could turn Hantengu into a pot later. What a waste it would be otherwise.
Akaza could clearly feel the demon aura growing denser.
Doma, on the other hand, looked bored. He wondered why Young Master Ryuya didn't eat women—just like Akaza.
He truly couldn't understand.
They were such sweet and delicious food. Eating them delighted the palate and strengthened one's power.
It was baffling!
Young Master Ryuya and Akaza must never have tried it before. That had to be the reason they refused.
Yes—that must be it.
As long as he managed to get a bite into their mouths…
They would surely understand his good intentions.
Doma smiled brightly, already plotting how to make Ryuya eat women's flesh.
Kokushibo remained silent, completely focused on the battle.
He needed to identify Ryuya's shortcomings for future training.
Muzan frowned slightly, feeling a trace of unease.
But soon, his expression relaxed.
Because from the fusion of flesh and blood, Hantengu's strongest weapon had emerged—
Zohakuten.
Zohakuten appeared youthful, with several Thunder God taiko drums engraved with the character "Zou" mounted on his back. He wielded S-shaped drumsticks in both hands.
He embodied the fused abilities of Aizetsu, Karaku, Sekido, and Zohakuten.
Not only could he freely wield their Blood Demon Arts, but their power was further amplified.
Most terrifying of all was his newly awakened ability—by striking the drums on his back, he could summon wooden dragons to attack.
"You evil oppressor of the weak, prepare to face your punishment!"
Zohakuten condemned Ryuya in a tone of righteous fury.
Ryuya felt neither guilt nor fear.
He simply found it amusing.
Yes—amusing.
Zohakuten was like a villain crying foul first, the embodiment of Hantengu's warped sense of justice.
Hantengu himself was a thief who constantly portrayed himself as the victim.
If caught stealing, a normal person would feel ashamed.
Hantengu?
He would wonder why he was so pitiful, and how anyone could blame him for taking a few coins.
In his mind, he was always the victim. Everyone else was cruel.
And Zohakuten's philosophy was simple—punish all "great villains."
But the so-called villains were merely those who harmed Hantengu.
In other words, Hantengu himself was justice.
Regarding such a twisted worldview, Ryuya had only two words—
Heaven-defying.
As Zohakuten finished his righteous speech, he swung his drumsticks and struck the Thunder God drums on his back.
Boom!
A thunderous explosion echoed.
From behind him, a pale green wooden dragon slithered forth.
Its crimson eyes locked onto Ryuya. It opened its massive jaws and released a devastating sonic wave.
Zohakuten swung his drumsticks again, "Blood Demon Art: Raging Roar!"
The sonic waves were invisible to ordinary eyes—
But within Ryuya's Transparent World, they took on form.
He could clearly see the circular shockwaves expanding outward from the dragon's mouth, distorting the air itself.
If a human endured this directly, at best their eardrums would rupture. At worst, their entire body would bleed and collapse.
Terrifying.
Yet before Ryuya—
It was child's play.
With precise perception, he stepped through the sonic waves effortlessly.
At the same time, his blade rose.
Five dark purple crescent slashes erupted forward.
They struck the ground, tearing through the wooden floor in violent shockwaves as splinters flew everywhere.
They surged toward Zohakuten like five dragons overturning seas.
Ryuya's voice rang out, "Moon Breathing, Seventh Form: Waning Moons Eclipsing!"
Zohakuten remained composed. He struck the drums fiercely.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
From the shattered floor, countless giant wooden dragons burst forth, swarming toward Ryuya like loaches flooding a field.
The crescent shockwaves collided with them, splintering wood in a fierce and chaotic clash.
But Zohakuten gave him no breathing room.
He struck the drums again.
"Blood Demon Art: Crushing Roar Wave!"
The surrounding wooden dragons unleashed violent sonic blasts.
This time, the waves were even more ferocious. The floor fractured instantly into spiderweb-like cracks.
And it didn't stop there.
Drums thundered once more.
"Blood Demon Art: Wooden Dragon Gale!"
The dragons spewed hurricane spheres in a torrential barrage, raining down upon Ryuya without pause.
Veins bulged across Zohakuten's forehead as he struck again.
"Blood Demon Art: Fierce Thorn!"
The wooden dragons released massive shockwaves from their jaws.
Midair, those shockwaves fragmented into countless shards, weaving between the hurricane spheres.
There were no gaps.
No blind spots.
Every attack converged upon Ryuya at once.
