He's in Marvel, working behind the scenes.

A strong yet gentle voice interrupted the boys' argument.

The two looked over at the sound and saw Rengoku Kyojuro's bright and sunny smile; tears welled up in their eyes.

"Welcome back, Mr. Purgatory."

The scarred boy, who had remained silent, had tears in his eyes that were now filled with joy.

"Yes, you've gotten stronger!"

"Thanks to everyone, I've become stronger."

The scarred boy clenched his fist in front of his chest and said confidently, "If the situation were to happen again, I definitely wouldn't be a burden."

"No, you were a great help last time."

Rengoku Kyojuro acknowledged the boy's abilities, then reassured him, "Our lord is still waiting. We can reminisce later."

"Huh!?"

The scarred boy seemed to only then realize what was happening; he staggered and almost fell.

He quickly steadied himself, turned to face his lord, and knelt on one knee. "My lord, what brings you here?"

"Tanjiro, is Nezuko available now?"

The lord said softly, "A guest has arrived and wishes to meet her."

Upon hearing this, Tanjiro raised his head and looked at Fury and the other two people who were completely wrapped in black cloaks.

He sniffed the air, his brow furrowed.

This isn't a good person; his demeanor is so complicated.

Lies, treachery, suspicion... all sorts of negative odors were very strong. If it weren't for the even stronger odor emanating from him, enough to overwhelm everything before him, and his strong determination to protect humanity, Tanjiro would probably have warned his master immediately, or even drawn his sword to drive him away.

"……no problem."

After hesitating for a moment, Tanjiro ultimately did not refuse.

He took the cargo box off his back and prepared to open it.

"Tanjiro, have you gone mad?"

Yushiro couldn't help but stand up and curse, "You're standing right under the sun! Are you going to let your sister out in a place like this?"

Upon seeing this familiar face, Tanjiro was first taken aback, then overjoyed. "Mr. Yushiro, it's you, is it really you?"

"So what if it's me?"

Yushiro was so angry that his eyebrows almost knitted together. He pointed at his nose and yelled, "Didn't you say you were going to protect your sister? This is what you've done..."

“Yushiro…”

Tamayo spoke softly and calmly, "Tanjiro cares about his sister more than anyone else. He would never do anything to hurt her, and neither Kagaya-sensei nor the Pillars objected. Considering what Kagaya-sensei said earlier, can't you draw any conclusions?"

Upon hearing this, Yushiro's body trembled, and his eyes quivered.

Fury seemed to have thought of something as well, and appeared thoughtful.

"Miss Tamayo..."

Tanjiro was also startled and looked over with tears in his eyes.

He was so captivated by Freyna's complex scent that he forgot to investigate the other two, and thus failed to recognize the two ghosts who had once helped him.

"I'm sorry, we've encountered some issues here because you've been missing for half a year without a word."

"No, I just want to see you again."

"……Um."

Seeing Tanjiro's voice choked with emotion, Tamayo nodded hesitantly.

“I’m sorry to interrupt your reunion, but as the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., I have many important matters to attend to, so could you…” Fury finally couldn’t help but speak up to remind him.

To be honest, he had no idea what the relationship was between this boy named Tanjiro and Tamayo and the others, or what they had been through. Watching their tearful reunion from a stranger's perspective only made him feel awkward.

Moreover, he is indeed very busy.

"Feel sorry."

After Tanjiro apologized, he quickly opened the box.

A toddler who looked only three or four years old, with long, flowing hair, and dressed in an adult-sized pink kimono and black haori, came out.

With her big, innocent eyes, she has a cute and innocent look that makes countless people feel as if their hearts are being nurtured.

Even Fury, a tough guy, felt his heart skip a beat.

It felt like meeting an incredibly cute cat.

"This is?"

Fury looked at Kagaya Ubuyashiki and asked.

“This is my younger sister, Nezuko Kamado.”

After finishing his sentence, Tanjiro Kamado looked at Nezuko and said, "Little sister, let's go back to our original forms."

"Ok!"

Nezuko nodded, and then her body visibly expanded, soon transforming into a cute girl with long, flowing hair, wearing a pink kimono and a black haori.

She had her back to the sun, but her smile was as radiant as a flower.

Fury blinked, taking a while to come to his senses. "So, she's a ghost?"

"Ok!"

Kagaya nodded gently. "Tanjiro's family was attacked by demons, and only his sister survived after becoming a demon. But Tanjiro stopped Nezuko from eating people with his actions and awakened her rationality with his family affection. So until now, Nezuko has never hurt anyone."

"Then why is she able to stand in the sunlight?"

"do not know."

Kagaya said, "In order to save people, Nezuko was exposed to the sunlight, but she overcame the sunlight and was able to live under the sun from then on. However, although she is no longer harmed by the sun, she still feels resistant and disgusted by it."

"Overcoming sunlight is something Muzan Kibutsuji has always dreamed of."

"As the Demon King, he only needs to eat Nezuko to devour everything about her and become the ultimate being without any weaknesses. If he knows our location and Nezuko's existence, he will definitely rush to steal her without hesitation."

"We absolutely cannot let Muzan get him."

Fury said without hesitation.

According to the information provided by Gu Qing, Muzan Kibutsuji possesses the ability to instantly recover from injuries. Even if his flesh is broken into thousands of pieces, it can regenerate. His body has infinite transformation capabilities, and his strength can easily destroy boulders.

If he didn't have the weakness of being afraid of sunlight, then even if the Hulk could beat him up again and again, as long as he escaped a piece of debris, he could make a comeback. He would be virtually impossible to destroy or capture.

"So we need to plan this out carefully."

Chapter 129 The Final Battle of the Infinite City (Part 1)

Three days later, a report stunned the world.

On a cliff overlooking the sea in New York City's West Coast, a Japanese garden stands.

It houses hundreds of Asians dressed in some kind of uniform, with an overall retro style, who appear to be ancient Japanese people who have traveled to the modern era.

Radio stations and newspapers reported on it extensively, and the news quickly went viral worldwide.

In the report, an aerial photograph went particularly viral—in a beautifully landscaped courtyard, people of all shapes and sizes, dressed in uniforms, wearing haori (traditional Japanese clothing), and with swords at their waists, were gathered together discussing something. Among them, a lovely young girl with long black hair, wearing a kimono and a haori, smiled brightly in the sunlight.

The sight of a young woman's smile melted the hearts of countless tough men, even those with the strongest resolve.

On the same day, countless people flocked to the address reported in the news to verify it, only to find that the road to the destination had been blocked by the police and the military, which further confirmed the authenticity of the news.

Suddenly, radio programs were discussing this Japanese garden that had appeared out of nowhere.

Someone located the satellite station and compared it with aerial maps taken three days earlier.

Three days ago, the cliffs on the west coast were bare; three days later, a courtyard surrounded by wisteria trees and filled with purple flowers appeared.

……

Stark Industries.

"Is it finally starting?"

Looking at the newspaper in her hand, Gu Qing's eyes also revealed a hint of anticipation.

In the past few days, he has saved up 380,000 wish points. He only needs 620,000 more to upgrade the system and have a high probability of drawing a B-level character.

In this way, he continued to maintain his extraordinary advantage and rapidly accumulated prayer points.

All these expectations are pinned on this one time.

If we can't raise one million this time, the overall pace will be slowed down.

……

Osborne Group.

"Finally found it, finally found it..."

Muzan clenched his fist, clutching the photo of Nezuko smiling brightly in the sunlight tightly in his hand, his eyes gleaming with excitement, his whole body trembling.

He was frail and sickly from a young age, and at the age of nineteen, he was diagnosed with a serious illness and was told that he would not live much longer.

In order to survive, he sought medical help everywhere and found a kind doctor.

This doctor devoted himself to research and actually found a highly effective medicine for him.

As a result, after taking several doses of the medicine, the condition not only did not improve, but worsened.

Believing he had been deceived by a quack doctor, he killed the doctor.

As a result, shortly after the doctor's death, his condition miraculously improved. Not only that, he also gained superhuman strength and immortality.

However, every medicine has its side effects, let alone this semi-finished product.

From then on, sunlight became his weakness.

In order to overcome this weakness, Muzan searched through ancient books and doctors' notes and manuscripts, and finally found a medicine that could solve the weakness of sunlight: "Blue Spider Lily".
