In this crossover anime, many ruthless and powerful figures reside in my territory.

"Watch out! It's coming!"

A crimson gust of wind, tens of meters high, gathered in Muzan's palm.

She bared her sharp teeth, her blood-red pupils burning with rage.

"I will not give you a second chance."

"Pay the price for angering me!"

At that moment, the six people—Gyomei Himejima, Tengen Uzui, Sanemi Shinazugawa, Kyojuro Rengoku, Obanai Iguro, and Kanae Kocho—felt as if they were witnessing an endless blood-soaked hell, rendering them completely immobile.

By the time they realized what was happening, a massive crimson wind blade spanning tens of meters had already reached them.

Dying?

A series of thoughts flashed through the minds of the six people, but when the wind blade passed through their bodies, their clothes were completely unharmed.

Ugh?

Kanae touched her body and felt no injury at all.

No way? That massive attack just now couldn't have been just a show, could it?

At this moment, Muzan also stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

How can...

"puff!!!"

Behind her, blood exploded like fireworks.

Blood rained down, staining her body crimson.

Blood slid down her fair skin and into her mouth.

This taste!

She turned around stiffly, her blood-red pupils suddenly contracting.

There was a pool of blood there, and in the pool of blood was Liszt, who had been cut into more than a dozen pieces.

He was on the verge of death.

! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

"No! Impossible!"

Muzan knelt down beside Lister, his outstretched hands trembling violently.

"How...how could this happen?!"

"Impossible! You couldn't possibly have suffered such a serious injury! You're far stronger than me!"

"Even if those ants were capable, how could they possibly hurt you a second time!"

Muzan didn't notice that his pupils were also trembling, and a tear rolled down his cheek.

"That's right! I am the Ghost King! I am the Ghost King!"

"I can heal this kind of injury!"

She quickly picked up Lister's severed limb and tried to piece it back together, but her hands were too shaky and she failed to do so several times.

When the limb fell to the ground for the third time, her tears finally flowed freely.

"No! Lister! Say something! Tell me how to save you!"

"I'm so panicked and scared! Get up and tell me what to do! I really don't want to see you like this!"

"You're so amazing, you can't possibly die! Don't leave me!"

Crystal-clear tears fell like a waterfall, mingling with the blood.

At this moment, the six Pillars—Gyomei Himejima, Tengen Uzui, Sanemi Shinazugawa, Kyojuro Rengoku, Obanai Iguro, and Kanae Kocho—silently stepped forward.

Everyone looked on incredulously.

This is... Muzan Kibutsuji?

Is this the kind of person who cries bitterly when someone is about to die?!

Absurd! Utterly absurd!

Everyone was so shocked that they couldn't say a word.

All intelligence indicates that Muzan Kibutsuji is a heartless demon who only cares about his own life and death and has no pity for his subordinates. He can discard them at will.

How could someone be so grief-stricken over the death of one person?!

"What the hell?! Who have we been fighting all this time?!"

"Sanemi Shinazugawa cried out in anguish."

On the island of mourning, tears streamed down his face as he chanted Buddhist scriptures.

Uzui Tengen said nothing.

Rengoku Kyojuro watched this scene silently.

Obanai Iguro picked up his weapon.

Kanae Kocho couldn't help but remind her.

"Um... Muzan, our Demon Slayer Corps doesn't have any special abilities."

No special abilities?!

Muzan tore open his kimono and held the ruby ​​on his chest in his palm.

Could it be this?!

Watch me throw it away...

Suddenly, a hand grasped Muzan's hand.

The body, which had been divided into more than a dozen pieces on the ground, was being connected by golden light.

The weakened Lister looked at Muzan with a calm gaze and spoke with trembling lips.

"No... that was a gift I gave you."

A faint light shone from within the ruby.

[The Order of the King: All attacks suffered by Muzan Kibutsuji will be transferred to Lister; all attacks Muzan Kibutsuji attacks on humanity in the Demon Slayer world will be transferred to Lister.]

This necklace was created by Lister using the power of his Zanpakuto, specifically for use at this time.

As the sun sets and night falls, darkness descends.

Muzan grasped Lister's hand, pressed his face against her palm, and scalding tears slid down his fingers.

"Don't worry... I won't die for you, for our ideals..."

Seeing Liszt's dry lips, Wu Can sobbed.

"Why? Why do you do this?"

"They're just ants, what's wrong with killing them?"

Do you know how heartbroken I am right now?!

Liszt did not answer, but simply shook his head slowly.

He is really weak right now. If it weren't for his constant research into the healing power of the Holy Light and his own regenerative abilities as a ghost, he probably would already be dead.

Fortunately, everything went as he expected.

"I can not stand it any more!"

"I'm going to kill them right now!"

The Wind Pillar, Sanemi Shinazugawa, picked up his sword and attacked together with Obanai Iguro, the Serpent Pillar, who was already preparing to assassinate Muzan.

The next second, Muzan turned to look at them, his pupils flashing with a dazzling blood-red light.

boom! ! ! !

A large amount of blood gushed from the ground, instantly shattering the two attacking blades.

The earth cracked open, and everyone could barely stand on the shaking ground.

When the crimson fountain dissipated, everything returned to calm, and Muzan Kibutsuji and the human man disappeared from everyone's sight.

Sanemi Shinazugawa and Obanai Iguro stared in silence at the bladeless swords in their hands.

At this moment, Beimingyu Xingming clapped his hands together.

"If it weren't for that human, we would have died many times over by now."

After the applause subsided, everyone realized what had happened.

They looked around and saw that the land was in complete disarray.

If that move had been used on them...

Was Muzan Kibutsuji really that strong? What about the Demon Slayer Corps from a thousand years ago?

Hanabira Kanae walked to the spot where Lister had collapsed, dipped her finger in some blood, and tasted it.

“This blood…”

"I'm afraid Muzan Kibutsuji became so strong because he drank that person's blood."

Everyone remembered what Muzan Kibutsuji had said earlier—

You are far stronger than me!

Beimingyu Xingming sighed.

"Let's go back. We need to discuss the matter of Muzan Kibutsuji more carefully. Let's tell the lord about what happened here first."

Now, perhaps only our lord knows what to do.
