Demon Slayer: The Naruto Hashira is a pure villain!

"Really, I can't accept this. I've made Mu Xu spend so much money~" Saying that she was sorry, Yayoi quickly pried open Tengen's hand, took the brooch, and pinned it to her team uniform.

I must say, it's actually quite good-looking.

"Please thank my wife for me!"

"..." Tianyuan didn't know what to say for a moment. After a long pause, he finally blurted out, "I think Mu Xu is my wife's, right?"

"Hey~ Don't be so stingy~" Yayoi was so busy admiring her new brooch that she didn't even glance at Tengen.

"..." Tianyuan was also at a loss.

From the moment Maki and Yayoi teamed up to "bully" Suma, they had already foreseen this day.

What else can you do? She's your wife's best friend, so you just have to accept it.

Just as Tengen was about to get far away from Yayoi, Yayoi called out to him.

"Hey, Tengen."

"What's up?" Uzui Tengen had a feeling that Yayoi calling him out couldn't be anything good.

"Give me a copy of the architectural drawings for your base when you have some time," Yayoi said matter-of-factly.

Uzui Tengen was also completely bewildered, wondering what kind of trouble this young lady was up to this time.

"Huh? Why?"

“When I went to visit Mu Xu last time, I took a liking to your courtyard. It gives you the feeling that gold bricks fall to the ground every few steps you take.” Yayoi said this with a look of longing on her face.

"Anyway, I've already asked around, and I don't need to pay for building the base. I'm thinking of building a house just like yours, and maybe even getting a hot spring..."

"Alright, that's enough."

If it weren't for the difference between men and women, Tengen would have covered Yayoi's mouth on the spot.

This guy is so carefree! Didn't he see that our lord has arrived?!

We're just chatting, why are you openly and secretly badmouthing me? It makes me feel like I'm being extravagant.

That's really bad!

"Good morning, my swordsmen, it's another beautiful day."

Yaozai's gentle voice rang out, and the three people in the courtyard immediately knelt down on one knee to pay their respects.

"Greetings, my lord."

Huh? Do I have to kneel down on one knee?

Yayoi peeked at Uzui Tengen beside her, and just as she saw which leg he was to kneel on, she heard Kagaya speak again:

"No need for such formalities."

Okay, then.

It's a new team uniform after all, so I'm a little reluctant to part with it.

Speaking of the uniform, Yayoi gets angry. When she first joined the Demon Slayer Corps, didn't she say she wanted a skirt? This time, she didn't have time to keep an eye on it, and what they sent was pants.

I need to find some time to have a "friendly conversation" with that bespectacled tailor.

While Yayoi was daydreaming, the meeting on the other side had progressed on many topics.

Yayoi didn't know what was said, and she didn't hear it.

Yayoi didn't realize what was happening until Tengen nudged her shoulder with his elbow.

Why did you hit me?!

"I..." Tianyuan was completely speechless.

I don't think I used any force!

Seriously, I've never seen such an amazing creature.

“Miss Kuwajima, I noticed you seemed a bit lost in thought earlier, so I had Tengen remind you,” Kagaya said, defusing the situation at the opportune moment.

"Speaking of the division of jurisdictions, Miss Kuwashima, what are your thoughts?"

Yayoi looked up at the map that Kagaya was holding up behind him, which divided the several districts near Tokyo Prefecture into nine major sections.

"Is each pillar assigned to a district?" Yayoi asked.

“Theoretically, yes.” Yaozai nodded. “It’s just that there are relatively few Pillar-level swordsmen now, and they are basically responsible for two or three pieces, while Mr. Rengoku is responsible for as many as four pieces.”

“Oh, that’s pitiful.” Yayoi nodded knowingly and said with sympathy.

I glanced at Makijuro; no wonder he looked as haggard as if his wife had died.

"My lord, is the area under Mr. Purgatory's jurisdiction in the Kyochashi district?"

"Yes."

“That piece will do.” Yayoi waved her hand, her tone so casual as if she wanted someone to round it down, “It saves Mr. Rengoku the trouble of going through all that trouble.”

Upon hearing this, Makijuro looked at Yayoi and said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you."

Although Miss Kuwashima seems...unconventional, she is ultimately a kind-hearted person.

If Ruka were still alive, she would probably like this little girl...

Makijuro's gratitude towards Yayoi was mixed with his longing for his deceased wife.

It seems Miss Kuwashima hasn't given up on finding Upper Moon One; she's really dedicated.

Yaozai was very pleased.

No? Why are you being so polite to Senior Purgatory? Is this some kind of double standard?

Tengen's eyes were practically rolling back to the back of his head.

Completely disregarding what the others might think, Yayoi's mind is currently filled with:

When will I go back to see Mom again?

"Since the bases are so close, can I go there every now and then?"

"I'm so excited!"

Chapter 23 Rich Man, Oh, there's even a monkey show to watch when I get home!

Yayoi, who had unexpectedly gained a huge amount of goodwill, walked out of the council chamber with satisfaction.

Just as she was about to go to the four-eyed tailor to "discuss the Dao" with him, Songzi stopped her.

"Hey kid, Momoyama sent a letter."

"Oh, can I not watch it?"

Yayoi reluctantly took two steps back; a letter from the old man at this time was never good news.

"No."

"What an inhuman crow." Yayoi pouted and reluctantly took the poorly wrapped envelope from Matsuko's paw.

"Thank you for the compliment." Matsuko didn't think "understanding human nature" was a good thing at all; it sounded more like a compliment to a dog.

Yayoi rolled her eyes, opened the envelope, and began to read.

My dearest disciple...

Nonsense, I'm not reading it.

Yayoi skipped over most of the lengthy content and went straight to the last sentence.

If I don't go back to Momoyama soon, I'll have Kaigaku kill Zenitsu!

Next to it was a very ugly chibi-style drawing, which showed Kaigaku threatening Zenitsu with his sword drawn, and Zenitsu crying with snot running down his face. The drawing was very lifelike.

Yayoi sighed helplessly.

Seriously, they just use this kind of useless stuff to threaten people.

The old man is getting more and more confused as he gets older.

Hiss... I only have two servants. If I lose one of them, I'll lose a satisfactory servant.

Forget it, I'll just go back.

"You, come here." Yayoi beckoned to Yin Zhao who was passing by.

"Me?" Yin looked left and right, but couldn't find a scapegoat.

"You, stop looking, you're the unlucky one today."

"..." Do I really have to say it out loud?

He walked towards Yayoi with a sense of helplessness, but stopped three steps away.

"Lord Naruhashi, is there anything I can help you with?"

"I'm giving you two things to do."

"Please speak."

"First, I'll tell that bespectacled tailor in charge of preparing the team uniforms that if he doesn't prepare a dress for me, I'll make a scene when I get back."

“Okay, what’s the second thing?” Hikari tried to remember the tone of Yayoi’s voice when she said this, afraid that she might not have conveyed it properly.

"The second thing is to have Yin, who is in charge of building my base, build it exactly like the base of Yu Sui Tian Yuan."

"Oh, okay." Kaku repeated Yayoi's request, confirmed it several times, and then hurriedly left.

There shouldn't be anything missing, right?

Yayoi felt uneasy, but she didn't have time to think too much about it, after all, there was still a servant in her household waiting for her to save.

……

Momoyama.

From afar, seeing Yayoi's head with its unparalleled white and pink hair, Kuwajima Jigoro tapped Zenitsu on the buttocks with his cane.

"Quickly, your senior sister is back, get ready to get into the zone."

Zenitsu covered his injured buttocks, pouted, and looked like he was about to cry, "Does it have to be like this, Grandpa?"
