Infinite: Start as a ghost

Kagaya shook his head: "You're wrong. The decline of Ubuyashiki was inevitable."

"We were able to achieve such a feat only because we worked together. Now that we no longer have a common enemy, the authorities will not allow us to grow bigger and bigger, and no one will entrust their lives to us anymore."

"A hundred years from now, the peak of the Ubuyashiki clan will surely pass, and new forces will replace the Ubuyashiki clan."

Jiang Jiu nodded, agreeing with what he said.

"And you?" Yaozai asked with a smile, "What are your plans for the future?"

Jiang Jiu said, "I don't know. Let's spend a few years traveling first and see all over the country."

Yaozai laughed and said, "If you were to travel all over the world, it might take you hundreds of years."

"No, not anymore," Jiang Jiu said with a smile. "I will leave this world soon."

Yaozai immediately fell silent.

He thought that the departure Jiang Jiu was referring to was the kind of departure that comes with birth, aging, sickness, and death.

He thought Jiang Jiu would eventually become human again, never imagining that he meant leaving in another sense.

With that, the two reconciled.

A month later, most of the members, except for those with particularly serious injuries, had recovered.

Kanao, Tamayo, Yushiro, and Shinobu Kocho also had a lot more free time.

Yaoya seems to be trying to bring Shinobu Kocho and Jiang Jiu together, but Jiang Jiu always manages to find an excuse to get away.

Another month later, Jiang Jiu led Xing Ming to find the last child he had saved, Sha Dai.

Shadai ran towards Xingming crying, repeatedly saying sorry.

It turned out that what she wanted to tell the adults was that the ghost had been killed by Xingming, but because she was too scared, she could only shout the word "ghost" while her finger was still pointing at Xingming.

The unsuspecting crowd assumed that the "demon" Sayo mentioned referred to a murderer, so they imprisoned Gyomei until Kagaya got him out.

Sayo has been blaming herself all these years. She thought Gyomei had been executed, but she never expected that Gyomei would join the Demon Slayer Corps.

She explained to Xingming that the children in the temple that day did not scatter to escape, but rather to seek help from other adults; some of them were looking for weapons.

These words resolved Xingming's inner conflict and allowed Jiang Jiu to complete another hidden task.

Another month passed, and everyone's injuries had almost healed. Except for those whose injuries were so severe that they would never be able to get out of bed again, everyone gathered at headquarters.

Upon closer inspection, there were at least several hundred people.

While celebrating the completion of the Demon Slayer Corps' mission, Kagaya also disbanded the organization.

Some people were happy because the disbandment of the Demon Slayer Corps meant that there were no more demons in the world.

Some people were heartbroken; they had grown accustomed to this life of fighting and killing and were reluctant to leave the organization they considered home.

Some people are confused; they don't know where to go from here.

At the very moment Kagaya announced the disbandment of the Demon Slayer Corps, a voice came from Jiang Jiu's system.

"Ding... Congratulations to the host for achieving a special achievement: Victory without a fight."

"Ding... Congratulations, host, for completing the final mission of this world. Mission complete."

"Ding... The system detected that the host has achieved two special accomplishments: fighting alone and winning without a fight."

"Does the host wish to accept the final hidden mission: Defeat Yoriichi Tsugikuni?"

"Ding... The host may choose to accept or not."

"If you choose not to accept, the system can arrange for the host to return to the original world, or it can arrange for the host to stay in this world indefinitely."

"The host can choose when to return to the original world."

Jiang Jiu was stunned for a moment. What the hell was this about defeating Yoriichi Tsugikuni?

He's been dead for hundreds of years, how can we fight him?

His strong curiosity and confidence led him to accept the offer.

Then, nothing happened.

"System, how do I complete this task? Where do I find him?"

"Are you suggesting I find a way to bring him back to life?"

The system remained unchanged, offering no explanation whatsoever; Jiang had to figure everything out on his own.

"Depend on……"

Jiang Jiu silently gave the sky the middle finger.

God felt a little wronged; after all, he wasn't a system...

Two more months passed, and Tamayo and Shinobu Kocho successfully developed a drug that could turn demons into humans.

She drank the potion without hesitation because there were no other ghosts to use as samples, so she had to act as the test subject herself.

After being in a coma for three days, she opened her eyes and knew she had succeeded.

Then Yushiro and Nezuko both drank the medicine.

She didn't drink the Chacha Pill; she hoped it would stay with Jiang Jiu forever.

After leaving the formula to Jiang Jiu, Tamayo disappeared from everyone's sight with Yushiro. She did not want to have too much contact with everyone anymore, lest she become too attached to them and reluctant to die.

A year after Nezuko transformed into a human, she got married.

It should be said that three couples got married.

Tanjiro and Kanao, Zenitsu and Nezuko, and Inosuke and Himawari are three pairs.

Urokodaki and Shinobu Kocho acted as the parents of both sides, while Kagaya served as the master of ceremonies, offering his sincerest blessings to the three couples.

They had wanted Jiang Jiu to be their best man, but Jiang Jiu wasn't there; he had gone to find the so-called "Tsugikuni Yoriichi".

He wondered if Yoriichi Tsugikuni had been reincarnated.

If that's the case, I'll have to wait at least another ten years.

Another year passed, and Mitsuri and Obanai got married.

As a result, the Demon Slayer Corps only has Shinobu Kocho left, and Kagaya has to worry about her a lot.

He's really not a relationship expert. He failed to match her with Jiang Jiu before, and now he wants to match her with Xing Ming.

Since Gyomei was her and Kanae's savior, there shouldn't be any major problems in terms of their relationship.

Xingming refused.

After leaving the Demon Slayer Corps, Gyomei returned to being a monk and went around taking in homeless children.

This time, he wasn't alone; he had an assistant named Shadai.

Shinobu Kocho was very unhappy with Kagaya's haphazard matchmaking, and once, when she pushed him too far, she even gave him a good scolding.

Another year has passed, and everyone is immersed in a happy life.

Besides Jiang Jiu...

Because no matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find a single clue.

He also requested that Kagaya commission an official census of the population, but still no results were found.

Suddenly, a possibility occurred to him.

The secret weapon of the sword-forging village!

Will Yoriichi Tsugikuni be resurrected in that form?

Chapter 145 Yoriichi Tsugikuni's Resurrection

Jiang Jiu staggered back to headquarters...

It can't be the headquarters anymore; it has to be called Kagaya's Residence again.

In his search for Yoriichi Tsugikuni, he traveled all over the world.

Overall, I'm in a good mood.

He returned to Kagaya's mansion to ask for the address of the sword-forging village.

After the battle with Kokushibo, the entire village of the Swordsmith moved away, and it's unknown whether the secret weapon was taken away by that brat.

He asked for the old address and the new address.

Now that the demons have been eliminated, there is no longer any need for the Sword Forging Village to remain hidden.

Therefore, Yaozai speaks freely and without reservation.

A few days later, Jiang Jiu returned to the original site, only to find it deserted.

But the hot spring is still there!

Jiang Jiu first enjoyed a delicious soak, savoring the experience before making any further comments.

During the two years he spent traveling around the country, he had soaked in hot springs all over the country several times, but he still felt that the hot springs here were the most comfortable.

He soaked in the hot spring for a full two hours before reluctantly leaving.

He then turned the place upside down, but still couldn't find Yoriichi Tsugikuni's battle doll.

"It seems they really have been taken away."

So Jiang Jiu left and headed to the new address of the knife-forging village.

Several more days passed, and Jiang Jiu arrived at the knife-forging village without incident.

The village of sword forging has changed a lot. They no longer produce Nichirin swords, but instead mainly manufacture various tools.

Most of them were farming tools; they had completely abandoned samurai swords.

Their main products are kitchen knives, sickles, hammers, saws, and the like.

It must be said that their skills are unparalleled in the country, and their handmade products are absolutely number one in the world in terms of both quality and quantity.

The newly appointed village chief, Hotaru Hideaki, warmly welcomed his arrival.

He had saved the life of the knife-forging village, and everyone was delighted by Jiang Jiu's visit, treating him with the utmost respect.
