Chapter 138: Twelve Ghosts
A few days later, the Demon Slayer Headquarters.
In the temporarily rebuilt house, the Demon Slayer Team is holding another Hashira meeting.
Uyashiki Yōya was in a very complicated mood. He originally thought that if Muzan was defeated, the content of this Hashira meeting would be to celebrate the victory of the thousand-year **** battle and the disbandment of the Demon Slayer Corps, but now, I am afraid that this will not be possible.
“Xingming, Immortal River, how are you two feeling now?” he asked softly.
Mingyu Xingming blinked his eyes: "I can't remember how long it has been since I saw the light. It's a pity that I can't face the sun directly. It turns out that this is the feeling of being a ghost. To be honest, in addition to suppressing the desire to eat everyone, it is very good."
Undead Saneya snorted: "I'm not good, that guy on the west is always controlling me in a subtle way. This feeling of not being able to free my body makes people very uncomfortable. How long will it take for the human-turning drug?"
“Your self-control is not as good as Mr. Iwazhu. I control you for my own good, otherwise you might become a cannibal.” Tomioka Giyu said.
Undying Mikawa Saneya: “…”
If you can’t speak, you don’t have to speak. Butterfly smiled inwardly and said: "Mr. Kamishi turned you into ghosts, probably because he wanted to remove the side effects of your markings so that you would not die early."
“It’s also...it’s also to allow the Demon Slayer Squad to distance themselves from his relationship in that situation and avoid casualties.” Mitsuri Kanroji’s face was filled with emotion: “Mr. Kamishi has always been so considerate.”
"But we can't distance ourselves from him." Purgatory Xingjulang said loudly: "I respect the Lord God, but if it is really him who issued the divine decree this time, I can't understand it.
There is no reason for this kind of thing to happen when Wu Huan was just killed and then surrounded and killed by the army! "
"And... it's very troublesome now. Shangxi killed many soldiers when he counterattacked. If he turns back to a human, what if..." Yu Zhuan Tianyuan said: "There are even worse results. If he is really angry and becomes Wuren in a gorgeous way. Such a miserable ghost king..."
“Mr. Kamishi can’t do that!”
"besides…"
Ubuyashiki Yoshiya listened quietly to the discussion of the nine pillars. They were basically supporting Ji Xing, because since Ji Xing joined the Demon Slayer Corps two years ago, from turning into ghosts to the previous decisive battle with no misfortune, what he has done Everything is blameless for the Demon Slayer Squad.
Without him, fighting against Shangxian and fighting against Wuhan, he didn’t know how many of the children in front of him would be left, and he didn’t know if they could survive.
Recalling the anger of the priest Naomi, the thoughtfulness of his wife, the priest Amane, and the scenes of contact with Tanjiro's brother and sister, Tamase Yushiro, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya said softly in the past two days.
“What are your plans for going to the West?”
The room fell silent, and all eyes were cast on Immortal Kawa Saneya.
Immortal Sekawa Saneya's face darkened, and a voice came from his mouth: "Let's break it up into pieces and wait for a while. Someone will come to your door to ask for help. Haha, next everyone's opponent will be me. If you want to Be careful."
“Opponent?”
"what are you up to?"
“I want the whole of Japan to be in turmoil for me, and let them know the anger of the Ghost King!”
…?”
The members of the Demon Slayer Squad didn't believe it until they gradually understood what Ji Xing wanted to do.
…
Three years later.
At the age of 18, Tanjiro has lost some of his immaturity and turned into a great young man.
“Tanjiro-sama!”
"come on!"
“Must kill that bastard!”
Responding to the calls on the street with some discomfort, Tanjiro quickened his pace and asked the official leading the way: "Has the evacuation been done?"
“Yes, Tanjiro-sama! Please kill that abominable ghost!”
Tanjiro nodded slightly and got ready for battle. Soon, he was taken to an open space that was blocked by layers of layers. In the center of the open space, he saw the target this time - a middle-aged man with a bare **** and a big belly, with a face full of fear and despair. Young male ghost.
Just by looking at his expression, many people might sympathize with him, but if they knew what he had done, they would be like those people on the road before and would like to kill him quickly. Tanjiro first looked into the other person’s eyes.
Under the pale golden pupils, there is "下物" written on one side and "壱" written on the other side!
Equivalent to the twelve ghost moons of Wu Ke, Ji Xing also set up twelve ghost beasts!
Zhu is a kind of animal.
These guys don’t eat people after becoming ghosts.
But when you are a human being, you eat!
Corrupt officials, murderous villains, and cult members who caused trouble were all turned into ghosts by Ji Xing, who then made them take the initiative to reveal their evil deeds to the world!
The ranking of the twelve ghosts and beasts is not determined based on their strength, but based on the degree of their evil deeds as humans! Those who are evil spirits basically commit the crime of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and they even include some unexplainable military and political figures!
‘What has this guy done? ’
Tanjiro raised his sword and killed him, knowing that his doubts would be answered soon.
Sure enough, one of the villains on the opposite side was clearly full of despair and fear, but when he attacked and killed him, he laughed ferociously: "You kid! You want to kill me? A kid like you, when I was building the road south of the city, Just filled in dozens of them..."
While being beaten, he was provocative and told about his evil deeds as a human being, helping Tanjiro accumulate anger and let him display more powerful strength!
This is also the characteristic of Ji Xing's ghosts.
It is precisely because of this that countless crimes that are too numerous to describe became known to the Japanese people and caused an uproar in the country.
Ghosts in the Immortal Period walked in the dark, did evil quietly, and committed evil deeds in their ghost bodies.
Now in the Ji Xing era, one ghost after another has stood up openly, making it impossible for the higher-ups to cover it up even if they want to!
Almost everyone has gradually come to know about the Demon Slayer Squad and the Mubi Millennium War, and they also know the name of the current Ghost King, Shang Xishiyakong.
And these ghosts, let alone ghosts, even if they are still human beings, have exposed so many crimes, the people will be eager to kill them!
It is precisely because of this that one by one the powerful members of the Demon Slayer Corps have come into the public eye, and some of them have become ‘stars’ and have loyal fans.
Although Tanjiro is one of the best among the Demon Slayers today, in terms of popularity, he is still far behind the passionate man Purgatory Kyōjuro and the gentle and beautiful Butterfly Ninja.
Of course, Tanjiro didn’t want to be famous either.
‘The Breath of the Sun·Five Patterns…’
Beheading one of the beasts with one knife, the mouth that kept talking about his sins was closed.
The fat head fell to the ground, his eyes became clear again, and he burst into tears. He gritted his teeth and said: "Baga! Baga! Baga! You are in league with ghosts, killing officials indiscriminately, and the country has turned into a ghost king to enforce the law! This country will be doomed!”
Tanjiro sheathed his sword.
He is kind-hearted and will sympathize with some of the ghosts under Wu Ke's command, but not the twelve ghosts.
These ghosts are really evil ghosts!
He doesn't know whether the country is going to be ruined or not, and he doesn't know whether it's right for the country to be enforced by a ghost king. He only knows that if such people don't receive the punishment they deserve, everyone will be disappointed.
Indeed, because of Ji Xing's "enforcement", the credibility of Japan's top leaders has reached rock bottom. Even because those collaborators and traitors have been exposed, they have become a laughing stock in the entire world, and the country's politics has set back at least 50 years.
But at least in the past two years, public security in various places has improved a hundred times, and the lives of civilians have become better. Many civilians regard Mr. Kamishi as a hero!
The only people who want to kill Mr. Nishi and then do it quickly are those at the top and those with a guilty conscience.
But from the initial failure of the military encirclement and suppression, to having to ask for help from the Demon Slayer Corps, to later making the Demon Slayer Corps an official organization and assisting the Demon Slayer Corps in selecting new recruits, until now, I am earnestly begging Mr. Kamishi to show up for negotiations, and anything will do. .
By retreating step by step, it can be seen that those people were powerless against him, and even deeply regretted their hasty attack on Ji Xing. They could not catch or defeat Mr. Shangxi.
More importantly, I can’t even find it!
After completing this ghost hunting mission and leaving amid the welcome of the people, Tanjiro returned to his current home in Kyoto.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw the ‘culprit’.
He greeted warmly:
“Mr. Shangxi, you are here.”
The next chapter will be later.
