Crossover Anime: Starting with Bankai from Demon Slayer

Chapter 254 But I Refusal

【You must immediately take your Master and all those unimportant people and leave this place.】

Withdraw from this Holy Grail War and stop getting in my way.

In exchange...

The black clay figurine snapped its fingers.

From the black mud behind it, a passage emitting a faint blue light slowly emerged.

The passage was unstable, with cracks in spacetime flickering at its edges.

But the bird could sense a familiar aura within it, an aura belonging to the present world.

I will use the power of the Third Law to open a door for you to your original world.

Although the energy is limited, it's more than enough to get you back on your own.

How about that? This is a win-win situation! You don't have to work so hard anymore, and I can save some energy.

Angolan Manuel's voice was incredibly seductive.

[If you just nod, this nightmare will end... You can go back to your woman, back to your friends... Isn't that great?]

The bird looked at the blue passageway.

Through the layers of time and space mist, he seemed to truly see the streets of Rukongai and those familiar faces.

Just step inside...

Once you step inside, it will all end.

No more struggling in this malicious world, no more facing those nonsensical magicians and battles.

This is indeed an offer that is hard to refuse.

,..sounds good."

Asuka slowly lowered the Zanpakuto in her hand, and the murderous aura on her body seemed to dissipate somewhat as well.

Right? Right?

The black clay figurine seemed very happy, opening its arms as if welcoming an old friend.

"Then hurry up and go! That passage won't last long! We'll all be happy once you leave!"

"But..."

'

The bird raised its head: "In this world, there are two things I hate the most."

"The first type is a madman who thinks he's a god and plays with other people's lives."

"The second type... is the liar who spews nonsense."

"And coincidentally, you have both."

Whoosh!

The outstretched arm of the black clay figurine was once again neatly cut off.

With a thud, it fell to the ground and turned into a puddle of foul-smelling mud.

[...]

.】

The arm did not regenerate, and the cut was as smooth as a mirror.

You... refused?

His voice turned somewhat cold, carrying a hint of incomprehensible confusion.

Why? Are you doubting my abilities? Or do you think I'm lying to you?

"No, I have no doubt that you can do it."

"But there's a foul smell to your words."

"The stench of treating human lives as numbers and hope as bargaining chips."

Asuka's gaze passed over the black mud doll and looked towards the people in the distance who were still trapped in nightmares, their bodies gradually being eroded by the black mud.

He looked at Sumire Kamado, at Kaien, and at Kiritsugu Emiya, who had fallen into despair for his ideals.

"What will happen to them if I leave?"

"Flying Bird asked coldly."

"You said you'd let me go, but what about them? Will they become your nourishment? Or sacrifices to this world?"

What's it to you?

They are merely the native inhabitants of this world, destined to be kindling! What business is it of yours, an outsider, to meddle in their affairs?!

The bird sighed, as if somewhat helpless.

His spiritual pressure began to rise steadily.

...Is your heart filled only with the purest evil, to the point that you can no longer comprehend human emotions?

"If I were to save my own life, I would throw them into the fire."

""

"Then how can I face Ren when I go back? How can I face taking revenge honorably?"

"More importantly..."

""

A savage red light flashed in the bird's eyes.

I don't like you.

"From the very beginning, I've disliked you to an extreme degree."

"Playing with human lives at will, hiding behind the scenes weaving vicious scripts... People like you shouldn't exist in this world."

[...Incomprehensible.]

The black mud doll's body began to twist and swell.

Since you're so eager to die, then I'll grant your wish!

Just because you have something inside you that I can't get rid of, does that mean I can't do anything to you?!

I may not have any fighting ability; I'm just a wish amplifier... But I have plenty of pawns capable of killing you!

Rumble—!!!

In the sky, the enormous hole suddenly began to tremble violently.

A dazzling golden meteor, accompanied by black and red lightning, fell from the void!

That wasn't an ordinary shooting star.

"That's... the King of Heroes?!"

The bird was startled.

At this point, Gilgamesh had long lost his former arrogance and nobility.

His golden armor was tattered and torn, and the exposed skin was covered with black veins, as if some kind of black toxin was spreading wildly in his body.

His eyes had completely lost their senses, leaving only two burning black flames.

On his chest, a white bone mask was firmly embedded, with countless scarlet tentacles deeply piercing his flesh and connecting to his spiritual core.

Metastacia.

This persistent ghost actually managed to parasitize a demigod!

"Hahaha! I felt it! I felt it!"

That nauseating sound came from Gilgamesh's mouth, overlapping with the original voice of the Hero King, forming an eerie symphony.

"Is this the power of the strongest Heroic Spirit?! Is this the Gate of Babylon?!"

"This is amazing! This is amazing!! With this power, I am a god!!"

boom-!!!

The hero crashed heavily into the plaza of Ryudong Temple, kicking up clouds of dust and rubble.

The black mud was blown away by the shockwave, revealing the scorched earth beneath.

Gilgamesh... or rather, he, possessed by Metastassia, staggered out of the ruins.

With each step he took, the black aura around him grew stronger.

A black beam of light was now descending from the hole in the Great Grail in the sky, connecting to his body.

[Did you see that? A stranger.]

Angolan Manuel's figure had vanished, leaving only his voice echoing in the air.

I truly cannot directly interfere with Gilgamesh, who possesses divinity, nor can I directly corrupt his will.

But... the worm residing inside him, that creature filled with desire and greed... was the perfect conductor!

I have granted it temporarily unlimited magic power, and the authority to suppress the will of demigods!

Now, he is my agent! He is the demon king who brings destruction!

Kill him! Tear him to pieces!

Roar! ! !

The controlled Gilgamesh let out a spirited roar.

He suddenly raised his head and fixed his eyes, burning with black flames, on the bird.

In the void behind them, the golden ripples had now turned completely black.

Countless treasures, tainted by the black mud and carrying an aura of curse that corrodes everything, slowly emerged.

"This is... a huge problem."

Feiniao's palms, gripping the knife, were sweating profusely.
