Chapter 241 The Last Battle

Night in the forest
Tanjiro standing in the open space holding the Nichirin Sword

Ever since he was resurrected by Tamayo using a special method, he could clearly feel a strange and powerful force surging in his body.

"Try again." Tanjiro took a deep breath and assumed the starting position.

He stomped his right foot hard on the ground, causing it to crack instantly. Tanjiro rushed out like a cannonball, with the Nichirin sword in his hand drawing a perfect arc.

"Breath of the Sun·Three Types·Scorching Sun Red Mirror!"

The blade tore through the air, making a sharp whistling sound. Flames exploded on the blade, transforming into a scarlet streak that swept across.

The trees within a hundred meters ahead were instantly cut in half.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Amidst continuous explosions, thick tree trunks fell to the ground one after another.

Tanjiro looked at the destructive power in front of him with a flash of shock in his eyes. This power far exceeded any moves he had ever mastered.

But the power in the body is far from reaching its limit.

"Cuck!"

A cry pierced the night sky, and Tanjiro looked up to see a chained crow swooping down from the sky.

"Tanjiro! Tanjiro!" The chain crow landed on his shoulder, "Muzan and Dio are fighting in the southern palace!"

"Is it finally starting?" Tanjiro gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, ready to set off immediately.

"Wait a moment."

Tamayo walked out slowly, holding a small bottle filled with dark purple liquid.

"This is..." Tanjiro looked at the small bottle.

"This is a special toxin that I developed using Dio's blood." Tamayo handed the vial to Tanjiro, "Although it can't completely eliminate his power, it can at least weaken his ability."

"It's just..." Tamayo showed a worried look on her face, "In order for the poison to take effect, Dio must absorb it. With his vigilance, this is not easy."

"I see. Thank you." Tanjiro took the vial and placed it solemnly in his arms: "This is enough."

Suddenly, an uncontrollable desire surged up his throat, and Tanjiro covered his neck, digging his fingers deep into the flesh.

"Has it started again?" Tanjiro clenched his teeth.

The instinct of thirsting for blood was clamoring in my body, and every cell was screaming madly. This feeling has never disappeared since I was transformed.

Upon seeing this, Tamayo immediately took out a blood bag from his sleeve: "I have prepared some human blood..."

"No thanks." Tanjiro raised his hand to refuse.

Tamayo did not take it back: "You have been transformed for too short a time, and your body is still adapting. If you don't replenish your blood in time, you may..."

"It's because time is short." Tanjiro shook his head, "If I start drinking human blood now, I'm afraid I won't be able to control this desire anymore."

He clenched the Nichirin Sword in his right hand, and the touch of the hilt made him feel at ease: "I am still a swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps. This sword is the best proof."

Tamayo stared at Tanjiro for a moment, and finally took back the bag:

"Since you have made up your mind, I will not say any more. But remember one thing - you must stay awake during the battle. You are in more danger now than ever before."

"I understand." Tanjiro jumped onto the treetop and headed south.

Tamayo looked at Tanjiro's bloodshot eyes and sighed softly: "Your current condition is not stable enough, it would be better if you could have more time"

"There's no time left." Tanjiro shook his head, "If either side wins, I'm afraid no one will be able to stop him."

"I must succeed." Tanjiro gripped the hilt of the knife, turned around and rushed towards the south.

Tanjiro's figure disappeared into the depths of the forest, and Tamayo turned around and prepared to leave.

"Lord Tamayo, where are you going?" Yushiro walked out from the darkness.

"I also need to go."

“No!” Yushiro took a step forward, his voice filled with anxiety, “It’s too dangerous there. With Dio and Muzan’s strength, they’ll be killed if they go over there!”

"Yushiro." Tamayo interrupted him, "Over the years, I have been looking for a way to destroy Muzan. Now the opportunity is right in front of me, I can't miss it."

Her tone became firm: "This is not only for myself, but also for all those who died at Muzan's hands."

Yushiro clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his palms. He wanted to say something, but couldn't.

"Then let me go with you."

........................

At the same time on the battlefield.

Muzan's fifteen whips exploded at the same time, sweeping towards Dio like steel whips.

"Mu Da Mu Da Mu Da!"

Dio roared, and the world's fists blasted out like a rainstorm. Each punch hit the pipe whip accurately, and the huge force pushed it back completely.

"Too slow, too slow!" Dio raised his head and laughed wildly, "In my world, I am superior to you in both strength and speed!"

Muzan's expression instantly became distorted, and the muscles all over his body suddenly began to wriggle, and strange ripples surged under his skin.

"Black Blood Trichosanthes!"

Wu shouted violently, and his skin suddenly exploded. Countless dark thorns poured down on Dio like a rain of arrows.

"THE WORLD!"

Dio shouted, and time stood still at that moment. The pitch-black thorns froze in mid-air.

The world's fists poured down like a rainstorm, and each punch accurately hit the vital points of Muzan's body.

"Time starts to flow!"

The moment time started to flow again, all the damage exploded at the same time, and Muzan's body was like being hit by an invisible giant hammer, and instantly exploded into countless pieces.

"Damn it! It's this skill again." Muzan's voice came, "What on earth is it?!"

The flesh and blood squirmed in the air and soon condensed into shape again. Muzan pushed his hands forward suddenly, and a terrifying shock wave erupted with him as the center.

"boom!"

The shock wave swept through Dio's body in an instant. He felt all the nerves in his body trembling and a sharp pain in his brain.

"Is this a neural attack?" A hint of surprise flashed in Dio's eyes.

Muzan seized this opportunity and rushed towards Dio like a cannonball. His arms extended in the air, turning into sharp blades and heading straight for Dio's chest.

"The blue spider lily is mine!"

The moment time resumed flowing, Muzan's body was like being hit by an invisible giant hammer, and he fell heavily to the ground.

Under the huge impact, his body sank into the ground, creating a huge hole.

Dior took out a wooden box from his arms and opened it to reveal a crystal clear blue spider lily.

"Now that you've appeared." Dio's fingers suddenly burst into heat, "this flower has no need to exist.

"You dare!" Muzan widened his eyes, his eyes full of disbelief.

Before he finished speaking, Dio's fingers instantly generated high temperature and ignited the blue red spider lily.

"Do not!!!"

Muzan jumped up from the pit, roaring hysterically, but it was too late. The blue red spider lily quickly turned into ashes under the high temperature and drifted away with the wind.

“Do you know what you have done?” Muzan’s eyes were bloodshot and the muscles of his body were twisted violently. “That is my only hope! The hope I have been pursuing for hundreds of years!”

"Dio! I will kill you! Tear you into pieces!" Muzan roared, and the sound waves shook the entire hall. "I will make you live a life worse than death!"

Muzan's body instantly swelled to three times its original size, his original human form completely distorted, and new eyes grew on his face. His back exploded, and more pipe whips burst out of his body, each one several times thicker than before. His arms also began to deform, turning into huge sickle-shaped claws.

"puff!"

At this moment, a large amount of blood mist suddenly spurted out of Muzan's body.

Blood mist filled the air, and his six eyes shrank at the same time - next to Dio, he saw a looming human figure.

Muzan's pupils shrank as he thought of Dio's previous behavior. Every time Dio wanted to attack, he had to get close to him first.

It seems that this figure cannot leave Dio too far.

"I see." A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Wuzan's eyes, "I found your weakness!"

"Stab!"

Dense bone spurs burst out from his body and flew towards Dio.

"Mu Da Mu Da Mu Da!"

The world's fists blasted out like a rainstorm, crushing the attacking bone spurs one by one.

At this moment, the ground beneath Dio's feet suddenly collapsed. A thick bone spur instantly broke out of the ground and hit Dio's lower body like a cannonball.

"what?!"

Dio was caught off guard, and the bone spur pierced through his abdomen, pinning him in mid-air. Blood flowed along the bone spur, forming a pool of blood on the ground.

"Die!" Muzan controlled the bone spurs and twisted them wildly, trying to tear Dio into pieces.

"Vaporization freezing method!"

A bone-chilling chill suddenly emanated from Dio's entire body, and the cold quickly spread along his bone spurs.

In less than a second, the huge bone spur was completely frozen, making a crackling sound under the erosion of the cold air.

"What?!" Before Muzan could react, the bone spur exploded into countless pieces due to the extreme cold.

"THE WORLD!"

At the moment when time stood still, Dio rushed in front of Muzan. The fist of the world blasted out like a rainstorm.

"Wood, big, big, big, big, big!"

The moment time resumed flowing, all the damage exploded at the same time. Muzan's body was torn into pieces, blood and flesh flew everywhere.

But his regenerative ability is equally amazing, and his broken flesh and blood quickly reassembles.

Dio stretched out his hand, trying to absorb the splattered blood, but Muzan's blood disintegrated the moment it came into contact.

"Oh? You can't even absorb blood?" Dio's eyes narrowed slightly, "Then I'll beat you until you can't heal yourself!"

“Die! Die! Die!” Muzan roared hysterically, and the bone spurs all over his body grew wildly. “I am a perfect creature! How could I lose to you!”

"boom!"

Countless bone spurs burst out in an instant, attacking Dio like a violent storm. The air was torn apart, making a sharp whistling sound.

Dio just sneered, and the world continued to punch.

Time and again, Muzan was broken and reassembled under the rain of fists of the world. After each reassembly, his movements became slower.

“Why. Why is it like this?” The rage in Muzan’s voice was gradually replaced by panic. “What kind of ability is this?!”

"boom!"

The world's fist hit Muzan's chest again, and his body instantly exploded into countless pieces.

But this time, the fragments did not reassemble like before, but instead scattered rapidly backwards.

"I can't die here!" Wuzhan's consciousness screamed madly in the fragments, "I haven't reached perfection yet!"

His consciousness flowed among the fragments of flesh and blood as he desperately fled backwards. At this time, Muzan had completely abandoned his previous arrogance, and only the desire to survive remained in his heart.

"There must be more. There must be more!" Muzan's thoughts were almost crazy. "This world is so big. There must be blue spider lilies in Asia, Europe, and America! As long as I can survive, I can find it!"

"Want to escape?" Dio sneered, "In front of me, Dio, you don't even have the qualifications to escape!"

The world's fists blasted out like a rainstorm, and countless golden afterimages flashed in the air. Half of the flesh and blood turned into powder under this violent attack.

But just as Dio was about to continue chasing, he suddenly stopped.

"Interesting." Dio narrowed his eyes slightly.

A figure suddenly rushed out from the ruins and blocked the remaining flesh and blood of Muzan. The man held a knife in one hand, and the scar on his forehead was particularly conspicuous in the moonlight.

"No miserability!"

Tanjiro's eyes were red, he stomped his right foot hard, and rushed out like an arrow.

"Breathing of the Sun: Brilliant Grace!"

Tanjiro slashed with his sword, and dozens of flames came out. Each flame accurately hit Muzan's flesh and blood, burning them all.

The remaining flesh and blood of Wuzan fled madly into the distance, barely gathering into shape in mid-air.

“Ah!” Muzan let out a shrill scream, “Breath of the Sun! Damn Breath of the Sun! Damn Tsugikoku Yoriichi!”

The parts hit by the flames felt a severe burning sensation, driving Muzan almost crazy. The wounds could not heal and were slow, as if there was a flame that would never go out burning inside his body.

"Interesting." Dio turned to look at Tanjiro, a hint of amusement flashing in his golden eyes, "You are not dead, and it seems that you have gained quite good power."

Tanjiro stared at Dio, but his eyes were surprisingly calm, without any of the madness that usually comes from being transformed into a demon.

"Dio! Creatures like you should not exist in this world."

Just as the two were talking, the clear sound of a shamisen suddenly echoed in the air.

"Zheng——"

The ground suddenly twisted, and a dark door slowly opened under Muzan's feet.

"Don't even think about escaping!"

Tanjiro stepped on the ground, and it instantly cracked. He rushed towards Muzan like a cannonball, and his Nichirin sword drew a scarlet streak in the air.

Dio also moved. His figure disappeared on the spot, and the golden world followed closely behind him.

"THE WORLD!"

In the moment when time stood still, Dio appeared in front of Muzan.

The sound of intensive punches rang out, and Muzan's flesh and blood was torn into pieces again, and he had no time to enter the portal.

"what?!"

Tanjiro's eyes widened. At that moment, Muzan's body suddenly collapsed, as if hit by an invisible force.

But he didn't pause at all. He stepped forward and rushed towards Dio.

"Breath of the Sun·Shape of the Eleven·Dragon of Sun Halo·Head Dance!"

The sword light was like a dragon, splitting into countless slashing strikes in the air.

"Interesting!" Dio laughed wildly, "World!"

The golden stand clenched his fists and rushed forward to meet the attack. The fist shadows and sword lights kept colliding, sparks flying everywhere.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Amidst the intensive collisions, Dio remained motionless. He looked into Tanjiro's bloodshot eyes with a playful smile on his face.

"Not bad, very good. If I hadn't obtained the world before, I really wouldn't be your opponent."
