"It really was those three..."

Gu Qing nodded slightly, as if she had already guessed it.

After all, the Butterfly Mansion is the medical unit of the Demon Slayer Corps, and it has many medical personnel, but they are the only ones who are sisters, or even three sisters.

Kanae Kocho and Shinobu Kocho are sisters who joined the Demon Slayer Corps after their family was killed by demons.

Kanao Tsuyuri was their adopted younger sister.

If there was anything unexpected, it was that no one expected Kanao to be so strong.

In the original work, Kanae died before the story began, and only appeared in Shinobu's memories, with no scenes showing her demonstrating her strength.

The assessment can only be based on the female protagonist 'Kanao', who also learned Flower Breathing.

Kanao, who is born with strong athletic ability and super dynamic visual ability, seems to have only reached the level of an average Pillar in the final battle. Kanae, who does not have special abilities, should not have surpassed her.

But upon closer examination, it seems rather arbitrary to make such a guess.

According to Shinobu Kocho's recollection, Kanae's strength far surpassed hers, and she fought Upper Moon Two, Doma, for an entire night before being severely injured and dying. Therefore, her strength had already surpassed that of the Flame Pillar.

After all, Doma's Blood Demon Art is very effective against Breathing Techniques; the more he breathes, the faster he dies.

The Demon Slayer Corps' foundation for fighting demons is Breathing Techniques; without using Breathing Techniques, they have no chance of winning.

Frankly speaking, apart from overwhelming and killing the opponent in a short time with absolute strength, Gu Qing couldn't imagine anyone relying on breathing techniques to fight a protracted battle with Douma, let alone fight for a whole night.

As for Shinobu Kocho and Kanao...

Shinobu Kocho is weak and is the only Pillar who cannot sever a demon's neck, so she is proficient in pharmacology and skilled at making various wisteria poisons to kill demons. It would not be surprising if Kanao's strength surpasses her sister's later on.

"Let's launch it at a suitable time!" After thinking for a moment, Gu Qing continued to focus on the lottery.

But after drawing all the remaining fragments, all you get are shards.

Gu Qing crossed his left arm over his chest and stroked his chin with his right hand, muttering to himself thoughtfully, "I prayed for nine pillars, but in the end only the Butterfly Dance Sisters came... Does the so-called 50% success rate mean that if you don't succeed, you get nothing, but that even if you fail, you can still summon an item or doll that is close to the target?"

After thinking for a while, unable to come to a conclusion due to too few draws, Gu Qing went to sleep.

But while he fell asleep, some people couldn't.

Stark Industries Building.

Top floor.

Since Tony became Iron Man, he has transformed this floor into a multi-functional space, including his private workspace, lounge, and treatment room.

At this moment, he was lying in a chair receiving an IV drip, looking dazed and silent.

Although Jarvis ejected him from the steel armor in time, and the pursuing air blasts were blocked by the armor, he was still affected by the aftershocks of the explosion, breaking several of his ribs.

He was already severely poisoned by palladium, and now he has suffered such a serious injury, which has made his condition even worse.

But he didn't care about any of that.

No matter his physical condition, he is confident that he can recover perfectly as long as there is a treatment available, but his broken heart is not so easy to heal.

He knew about the existence of ghosts yesterday and learned about many supernatural creatures during his investigation, but he didn't take it seriously, thinking they were just a group of mutated creatures. Even if they had a lot of weird abilities, they were still carbon-based life forms and couldn't compare to modern machines.

But reality slapped him hard in the face.

Whether it was the Lower Moon demon that caused his downfall or the Upper Moon demon that crushed him, they all demonstrated a power far exceeding people's understanding of carbon-based life forms.

The so-called superheroes who represent the limits of human potential, such as Captain America, or elephants and tigers, have physical data that is as fragile as paper compared to these two monsters.

Yet, such a powerful creature can be contended with using techniques such as "breathing exercises"...

This is completely unscientific.

"Okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have used science to measure magical creatures." Tony snapped out of his reflection.

Because Tamayo told him that the Demon King Muzan was transformed from a human into a demon because of a medicine, he subconsciously assumed that demons were just creatures born according to some kind of scientific law.

But now that I think about it, that basis is ridiculous.

Because the two worlds are not the same at all, it is completely unknown whether the laws of the other world are the same as those of one's own world, or whether there are any differences. One cannot use the common sense of one's own world to judge.

but……

"Even fantasy has its own laws."

Tony muttered to himself, recalling all the characteristics the demon had displayed during tonight's battle and what Tamayo had told him about the nature of the demon.

Countless pieces of information flashed through my mind, were then summarized and categorized, and finally formed a plan.

"Jarvis, draft a plan!"

"The file is ready, sir. What do you need?"

"Anti-ghost armor!"

……

S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters.

Fury sat alone in his office, deep in thought, twirling the quantum communicator Captain Marvel had given him.

He didn't intend to call Captain Marvel back, but he was extremely insecure at the moment, and only by holding her in his hands could he feel at ease.

Today was absolutely terrible.

First, the Vongola family, with whom they had finally reached an agreement, clashed with the military, wiping out two Marine battalions. Then, they discovered a new time traveler, and even their trusted lieutenant, Coulson, was turned into a demon.

These were already terrible news, but compared to the strength displayed by the two Twelve Ghost Moons and Gu Qing's threats and actions, they were insignificant.

The power of the Twelve Demon Moons is terrifying.

Because they are not individuals, but a group. If one is already so powerful, how would we deal with all the ghosts acting collectively?

Gu Qing united all the isolated transmigrators, depriving them of their only access point for in-depth investigation using forceful methods, further slowing down the development of a plan to deal with the transmigrator crisis.

Also, there's Gu Qing's threat.

How much does he actually know?

When he said the wrong thing (which had consequences beyond a world war), was he worried that others would hear it and he would pay the price and fight him to the death, or did he only know a little bit about it?

But no matter what, even knowing just a little bit is still an extremely unstable factor.

Fury was orchestrating everything from behind the scenes, laying out contingency plans.

But he often wondered, if he, who possessed so many secrets and powers, were controlled by the enemy, or if he came into contact with some truth or anomaly, causing his determination to protect the Earth and humanity to change, would he become the greatest threat to the Earth...?

Based on this idea, he devised countless plans for himself to prevent such a thing from happening.

Now, another person has appeared who knows too much and wields too much power, just like me. This person is an outsider and poses an even greater threat than me, so I must take precautions.

But what measures can be taken to avoid being detected by his intelligence-gathering abilities?

If Gu Qinglian knows that his various plans are being carried out all over the world and even in outer space, then it means that his capabilities are at least within the entire Earth and nearby outer space.

Not only do we need to prevent him from obtaining the plan, but we also need to prevent the power of the transmigrators he represents... This is simply impossible!

"Whoo~"

Fury let out a deep sigh of relief, feeling a throbbing in his temples and a headache.

He gently rubbed his temples to relieve the pressure while continuing to ponder.

He thought of Coulson, who had been turned into a demon by Tamayo, and finally sighed, "If military defenses don't work, then the only option is to show a friendly attitude and turn this unstable force into a stabilizing force that protects the Earth and humanity."

Fury didn't like this kind of plan with too many variables, but now that things had turned out this way, he had no other choice.

……

In an apartment building.

A slightly overweight middle-aged man picked up a newspaper that had appeared on the table at some point—it contained only recent cannibalism cases, but through the blue-light glasses he was wearing, one could see something different.

There is a hydra symbol on it.

Below are all the details of the battle in Hell's Kitchen Block 50.

After reading the contents, he crumpled the newspaper into a ball, burned it in the ashtray, then sat on the sofa, frowning in thought and muttering to himself.

"The gray-haired man who is a cyborg commanding animals, and who is also a transmigrator of the Ghost Slayer Corps, is suspected of possessing the ability to foresee the future, a secret powerful enough to trigger World War III..."

He picked up the phone and dialed an unnamed number: "Change the plan, cancel the force probing, and try contact probing instead. Let's see if we can bring him to our side."

If that doesn't work, we can try cooperating.

Finally, let's see if we can find out what Fury does in private.
