Chapter 74 Akaza

"call out--"

Kyojuro Rengoku's smile froze instantly, and he rushed off the train at top speed.

As the Lower Moon One, Enmu's strength was not to be underestimated. Although Tanjiro and his companions successfully killed Enmu, they also ended up with themselves covered in wounds.

Apart from Nezuko, who has an extremely strong recovery ability, Tanjiro and the other two didn't even have the strength to stand up.

Therefore, when faced with Akaza suddenly appearing from the sky, Tanjiro and his companions had no ability to escape, let alone fight.

Akaza, covered in dark blue tattoos and sporting short, peach-pink hair, scanned Nezuko and the others with his golden eyes before finally fixing his gaze on Tanjiro, who was wearing a sun-shaped earring.

"Bang!!!"

Akaza suddenly exerted force with his feet, leaving a large, cracked crater several meters in diameter in the spot where he stood, and mercilessly swung his fist toward Tanjiro's head.

Seeing this, Nezuko instinctively wanted to rush up to rescue Tanjiro, but she couldn't keep up with Akaza's speed at all.

"Pfft!"

Just as Tanjiro was about to have his head smashed by Akaza's punch, a burst of blazing light suddenly appeared out of thin air and severed Akaza's wrist.

Caught off guard by the sudden attack, Akaza instantly retreated several meters, turning to look at the figure that had suddenly appeared.

Looking at Kyojuro Rengoku, with his full head of blond hair and owl-like eyebrows, Akaza twisted his wrist, which had recovered in an instant: "Good sword! You must be a Pillar, right?"

"I am the Flame Pillar, Kyojuro Rengoku."

Kyojuro Rengoku gripped his Nichirin Blade tightly, his face full of wariness as he tentatively asked, "You must be an Upper Moon demon, right?"

Akaza pointed to his eyes, a somewhat excited smile spreading across his face. "I am Upper Moon Three, Akaza! You look pretty strong!"

Akaza is also known as the "Demon of the Fighting" because after becoming a demon, he lost all his memories, leaving him with only the obsession to become stronger.

In order to become stronger, they only like to fight against the strong, while looking down on the weak and even hating the weak.

However, Akaza, who considers himself a strongman, also has his own strongman's creed: he never kills or eats women, and only chooses to eat people when he is extremely hungry.

This is precisely why Akaza and Upper Moon Two Doma, who only eats women, can be considered two extremes, and their relationship is quite terrible.

"Kyojuro, I'm going!"

As Akaza finished speaking, a snowflake pattern appeared out of thin air beneath his feet, then transformed into a blur and shot towards Rengoku Kyojuro.

Seeing this, Rengoku Kyojuro immediately brandished his Nichirin Blade, unleashing a burst of flame-like sword light as he engaged Akaza in battle.

With Rengoku Kyojuro's strength, even if he couldn't defeat Akaza, it would have been relatively easy for him to protect himself.

However, since Tanjiro and the others have lost their fighting ability, Kyojuro Rengoku has no choice but to confront Akaza head-on, otherwise Akaza would definitely kill Tanjiro first.

"Damn it! Get your body moving!"

Seeing Kyojuro Rengoku struggling alone in the fight, Tanjiro, while struggling to get up, called out to Nezuko, "Nezuko, go help Mr. Rengoku!"

"Um!"

Upon hearing this, Mizuko obediently nodded, brandished her two sharp demon claws, and pounced towards Akaza.

"Bang!!!"

However, as fast as Ni Douzi rushed into the battlefield, he fell down even faster. As soon as he entered the battlefield, he was kicked dozens of meters away by Yiwozuo.

Although Akaza does not kill or eat women, it does not mean that he does not hit women, especially since Nezuko is a female ghost.

"You bastard, how dare you hurt Midouzi! I'll fight you to the death!"

Zenitsu, who fell in love with Nezuko at first sight, forgot his fear of the Upper Moon demons when he saw Akaza kick half of Nezuko's body to pieces. He immediately swung his sword at Akaza with all his might.

Upon seeing this, Rengoku Kyojuro's expression changed drastically, and he couldn't help but shout angrily, "Don't come any closer! This is not a battle you can interfere in!"

Zenitsu doesn't have the same regenerative abilities as Nezuko. If he were to take a full-force attack from Akaza, he would probably die on the spot.

Breath of Thunder·Shape of One·Thunderbolt Flash!

"Rip—"

A dazzling golden blade of light, like lightning, tore through the night sky and instantly sliced ​​across Akaza's neck, severing its head.

"You despicable and shameless scoundrel, you actually resorted to a sneak attack from behind!"

After Akaza's head fell to the ground, he stared at the tall, slender figure that had suddenly appeared and couldn't help but shout in exasperation.

"Senior Brother Changsheng!"

The latest novel is first published here!

Zenitsu, who had only charged halfway, was almost moved to tears when he saw Dai Changsheng emerge from the woods not far away.

As the initial surge of adrenaline subsided, Zenitsu felt a wave of lingering fear. If Dai Changsheng hadn't appeared in time, he might have really died here.

Dai Changsheng ignored Akaza and Zenitsu, and instead turned to Rengoku Kyojuro and asked, "Kyojuro, are you alright? I never expected that I would run into you fighting an Upper Moon demon just by passing through this place."

Because Dai Changsheng knew that Muzan Kibutsuji could share the images that demons saw before they died, he deliberately pretended that he had just happened to be passing by in order to avoid arousing Muzan Kibutsuji's suspicion.

"I'm fine, you came just in time."

Kyojuro Rengoku shook his head instinctively, then his face lit up with gratitude as he said, "This time, we really owe you a debt of gratitude, Lord Naruhashi!"

"You two bastards, don't ignore this..."

"Komaji!"

Just as Akaza was about to be so angry with Dai Changsheng and the others that he was about to forcefully break the limits of the demon, a gentle voice suddenly rang out, followed by a girl in a pink kimono appearing in front of him.

"You...you are...Lianxue!"

Gazing at that familiar figure, Akaza's forgotten human memories gradually returned.

"I'm...I'm so sorry! I wasn't able to protect you back then. When you and Master needed me the most, I wasn't there for you..."

Akaza, having regained his human memories, embraced his fiancée's soul and wept bitterly, tears streaming down his face.

"It's okay, it's so good that you can remember us again! It's so good that you can become the Komaji you used to be! Welcome back~"

With the comfort of his fiancée, Koyuki, Akaza's obsession was relieved, and his severed head and headless body slowly dissipated, his soul following Koyuki to hell.

"That idiot!"

At the same time, Muzan Kibutsuji, who received the images Akaza sent before his death, cursed under his breath with a look of disappointment.

Judging from the information Akaza sent before his death, he was originally able to break through the boundaries of demons, and from then on, even if his head was severed by the Nichirin Blade, he could regenerate his head.
