Chapter 96 I am your sister's ex-boyfriend

"How could that be?"

Looking at Su Yan, who remained unchanged despite being bathed in sunlight, Shinobu couldn't help but blurt out.

"Saeko-senpai, come back."

Su Yan did not answer her question, but instead said something to the purple-haired girl who was fighting with Tomioka Giyu not far away.

Upon hearing this, Busujima Yako decisively abandoned her opponent and returned to Su Yan's side, standing beside him and basking in the warm sunlight together.

Su Yan asked Saeko Busujima about her experience with the breathing technique, "How does it feel?"

"It's alright, but the attack methods seem a bit rigid," Busujima Asako replied after thinking for a moment.

"Is it rigid?"

Upon hearing Busujima Yako's answer, Su Yan couldn't help but agree: "Indeed."

Judging from the battle just now, Su Yan himself could clearly feel this.

Breathing techniques are too limiting.

Only by using a specific breathing rhythm and matching it with the corresponding sword shape can its maximum power be unleashed.

This completely destroys the flexibility and variability that combat should have.

He completely limited his skills to the breathing techniques and sword forms he had learned.

Fighting should be free.

Especially for someone like Dokko Busujima who enjoys fighting and killing.

If one has to be bound by specific moves and techniques in battle, it would be an unbearable constraint for someone like Dokushima Yako.

Yoriichi Tsugikuni was able to create a breathing technique system that empowers ordinary people to fight demons, transforming them from prey into hunters.

He can absolutely be called a genius with extraordinary talent.

However, the existence of breathing techniques, while creating a system, also limited all swordsmen who later learned breathing techniques.

After learning the breathing technique, the swordsmen proceeded along this narrow path, only able to passively use the life energy within their bodies.

At most, I would modify some parts of the sword shape to make it more suitable for myself.

There has been no further progress.

Let alone being able to freely control the life energy within one's body like a Nen user.

The upper limit that a Breathing Technique swordsman can reach in his entire life may not even be as high as the lower limit that Yoriichi Tsugikuni reached when he created the Breathing of the Sun.

Why?

Shinobu Kocho watched as the two of them talked animatedly in front of her, as if they didn't exist.

Unable to resist asking, "Why are you all perfectly fine after being exposed to the sun?"

"Because we're not ghosts."

Su Yan smiled and responded softly.

Why did he stop Tanjiro from explaining just now?

Firstly, we can test the power and effectiveness of the breathing technique through combat.

Secondly, it was almost dawn, so what explanation could be more direct than simply sunbathing in front of the other person?

Thirdly, no matter what world you're in, ultimately it's strength that matters.

Only by demonstrating some of our strength can we gain the respect we deserve.

This is especially true for the Pillars, whose strength is already at the pinnacle of humanity in this world.

It's a win-win-win situation, so why not do it?

"this----"

Shinobu blinked, somewhat bewildered, unsure how to respond.

He could only turn his gaze to Yoshiyuki Tomioka, who was slowly approaching, and asked, "Mr. Yoshiyuki Tomioka, could you please explain this properly?"

Come to think of it, the reason I mistook Su Yan for an evil spirit was entirely because of Giyu Tomioka, right?

In addition, Su Yan deliberately used her sister's name to provoke her.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have acted so impulsively.

"What happened?"

Giyu Tomioka ignored Shinobu Kocho's question, looked at Su Yan, and pointed to Aoi Kamado and the others who were bound by silver chains in the shadows not far away, asking them a question.

"Oh, them."

Su Yan spoke calmly, as if she were talking about something insignificant: "Because they are ghosts."

Giyu Tomioka asked, "Then why didn't you kill them?"

Upon hearing this, Tanjiro and Nezuko, who had been watching the battle, quickly walked over.

Tanjiro retorted, "No, even though they were turned into demons, they are still my family."

"Really? How pitiful, to have your beloved family members turned into cannibals."

Once the matter was explained, Shinobu Kocho's face returned to its usual smiling expression.

However, her aversion to evil spirits remained unchanged.

He immediately said in a lighthearted tone, "In that case, why don't I inject them with a gentle poison and let them die without realizing it?"

As he spoke, he began to move toward Kamado Aoi and the others.

Tanjiro stepped forward and blocked Shinobu's path, saying, "I will absolutely not let you hurt my family."

"Brother Su Yan~"

Mi Douzi immediately stepped forward and grabbed Su Yan's arm, making full use of her advantage, and looked at Su Yan pitifully and shouted.

Shinobu Kocho asked, "Sir, since you also know Breathing Techniques, you should know what demons are, right?"

This demonstrates strength. After showing his strength, Shinobu Kocho had to wait and see Su Yan's reaction before she could make a move.

"So what if I know?"

Su Yan said nonchalantly, "Perhaps others have the right to kill them, but you members of the Demon Slayer Corps are the only ones who do not."

Giyu Tomioka pressed further, "Why do you say that?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yan reached out and gently pushed Tanjiro from behind.

He pushed it in front of Giyu Tomioka and then said, "Because the Kamado family has been passing down the Sun Breathing technique created by Yoriichi Tsugikuni to the Demon Slayer Corps for over four hundred years."

"If you want to kill his family, why not listen to what this successor of the Breath of the Sun has to say first?"

"That's right!"

Nene Douzi hugged Su Yan's arm and said proudly, "Just now, Brother Su Yan and Sister Ya Zi used the Sun Breathing technique that they learned from Brother Su Yan."

"Is that so?"

Yoshiyuki Tomioka's gaze froze for a moment.

Then it occurred to him that if it was the legendary strongest Sun Breathing technique, then it would make sense.

Although he also hated demons, he did not have the experience of losing a loved one in his arms like Shinobu Kocho.

Therefore, he seemed much calmer than Shinobu Kocho when faced with such situations.

After thinking for a moment, Tomioka Yoshiyuki said, "I cannot decide such a matter. If possible, I would like you to come with me back to see our lord."

"The Demon Slayer Corps' lord? Sure."

Su Yan did not refuse, even though he was not interested in the Demon Slayer Corps and had no interest in the so-called leader of the Demon Slayer Corps.

However, he was quite interested in Ms. Tamayo, who was able to develop a medicine that could turn Nezuko back into a human from a demon.

If we can bring them under our control and make them our own.

With the addition of the blue spider lily, the other party might be able to develop a drug that would make evil spirits no longer interested in human flesh.

This would greatly increase the priority of using Muzan's blood to prolong life.

Aside from going to see the Demon Slayer Corps leader, Su Yan couldn't think of a better way to find him.

"Has it been decided yet?"

Shinobu Kocho said with some regret, "So it seems there's no point in me saying anything now?"

If Giyu Tomioka were on my side, that would be fine, but I'm alone.

She had no chance of winning.

Moreover, it is said to be the strongest Sun Breathing technique.

If the Demon Slayer Corps had something like this, perhaps the day they could avenge their sister wouldn't be far off.

Thinking of this, Shinobu Kocho couldn't help but look at Su Yan and ask, "Sir, I've been curious about something since just now. Could you please answer it?"

"Why do you know my sister's name, sir?"

"Miss Shinobu Kocho."

Upon hearing Shinobu's question, Su Yan suddenly felt a mischievous urge, a playful smile curving his lips as he said, "If I said I was actually your sister's ex-boyfriend, would you believe me?"
