I'm a magnetic field madman

"The tasks you perform will remain unchanged," Muzan said coldly.

"But whatever you're doing, once you find this person, immediately gather everyone to surround and kill him!"

"I won't say it a second time. Surround and kill him. Don't act alone. Understand?!"

Upper Moon four, five, and six all agreed, and Akaza frowned slightly before bowing his head in response... Upper Moon two's cheerful demeanor clearly showed that he didn't take Muzan's words to heart, as for Upper Moon one...

His silence spoke volumes about his thoughts.

He didn't think his "colleagues" could be of any help... but since it was Muzan's order, he wouldn't go against it.

But what if we actually encounter this guy head-on—

Kokushibo's hand twitched slightly, and he felt a surge of heat within his body—blood that hadn't been warm for a century.

He might not want to ruin this fun.

"Daki, I have high hopes for you, but you and your brother are just very talented, but talent is also the cheapest thing in the world."

After assigning the task, Muzan looked at the youngest of the Upper Moons, and seeing Daki's excited, flushed face, he softened his tone slightly...

"If you encounter that monster, you don't need to go to it. You can keep your life, because you are of greater use to me if you are alive."

"Yes, Lord Muzan!!"

Daki shouted excitedly, while Gyutaro, hiding inside her, remained silent...

Unlike his mentally challenged sister, Gyutaro fully understands why Muzan values ​​Daki so much.

Even though Daki's strength doesn't even warrant being called an Upper Moon, and she and Muzan together make up the complete Upper Moon Six, she was still given such an honor and even received special treatment from Muzan.

On one hand, it was because of her own connections, and on the other hand, it was undoubtedly the convenience brought by her status as Daki.

Yoshiwara is a chaotic place; the country's largest den of iniquity is a melting pot of people from all walks of life.

From former high-ranking officials of the shogunate to ordinary peddlers and now lowly servants of the military and government, Yoshiwara is always bustling with people.

These people can be considered the best sources of intelligence.

Daki isn't very bright, but under my guidance, she's still able to use her abilities to obtain information from various parts of Yoshiwara.

She didn't have the brains to sort through and discover the valuable parts of the intelligence, and that was something Gyutaro was responsible for doing.

Of course, even without Daki, Gyutaro couldn't do these things. Even if he was intelligent, his congenital deficiencies still needed his sister to make up for them.

Among the Upper Moons, the one competing with them for intelligence gathering is naturally Upper Moon Five, Gyokko.

Although they didn't know where his information came from, they were no less capable than the two siblings... But even under these circumstances, Muzan specifically instructed Daki to be careful...

After thinking for a moment, Gyutaro immediately understood the crux of the matter.

"Do you want us to use our connections and influence in the government to frame him?"

Gyutaro emerged from his sister's body and, under Daki's disapproving gaze, spoke humbly and cautiously to Muzan...

"Intelligent, that's why I value you siblings!" Muzan praised, his crimson eyes flashing with cruel light...

"Since that guy enjoys framing others so much, let him experience that feeling too."

Using this method is both a form of retaliation against Muzan and the best way he has found to restrain these demon slayers!

They prided themselves on protecting humanity, but they were betrayed and hunted down by humans. Just thinking about that made Muzan happy!

Moreover, by utilizing the power of the government, the search for his whereabouts can be significantly expanded.

Muzan thought it was a clever idea to use human power against humanity itself!

"Then, Daki, Gyutaro, this job is yours."

"Yes!!"

After giving instructions, Muzan turned his gaze to Zero.

A gigantic tentacle covered in sharp teeth and eyeballs emerged from his shadow, howling as if it were about to swallow Zero whole!

Throughout the entire process, the remaining zeros remained completely still.

Muzan's actions then came to an abrupt halt.

"Considering your commendable performance, I will grant you the privilege of living," Muzan said coldly.

Perhaps it was because he had already dealt with the lower moon that his mood wasn't so bad...

Or perhaps it was because Lingyu's fearless demeanor made Muzan somewhat satisfied with her.

In short, the capricious Demon King abandoned his plan to swallow Zero.

But not killing her doesn't mean we've let her go...

A blood-red thorn pierced Zero's neck, and a large amount of blood was poured into her body. She collapsed to her knees, convulsing and screaming, while Muzan could only respond with a cold voice...

"Eat up this blood, or die. You and Nightmare should focus on dealing with the demon hunter with the earring."

"Then, let's each go our own way."

As soon as Muzan finished speaking, Nakime began to pluck the strings of her biwa... Amidst the mournful music, everyone was sent out of the Infinity Castle.

12. Demon Cells

Just as dawn was breaking

As the sun gradually rises at dawn, in the courtyard of the Butterfly Mansion, a young boy is slowly practicing a set of boxing techniques in the morning dew.

His speed wasn't that fast, and each of his punches and moves didn't seem to have any complexity whatsoever.

But through the twilight mist, this kind of boxing technique has an indescribable meaning.

Fierce, wicked, mad, and domineering!

As the speed of the punches increased, this imagery became more and more pronounced and compelling!

Until the final move, "If I Were Emperor," he unleashed his full madness!

boom!!

Looking at the single drop of dew that had been shattered hundreds of meters above the sky, Bai Wujie withdrew his fist and let out a long breath.

"How long are you going to keep watching? Speak up if you have something to say."

A detached voice, and naturally, Shinobu Kocho stepped out along with it.

"Your boxing technique is very beautiful. Perhaps you and Mr. Tianyuan have a lot in common."

Shinobu Kocho said

"Beautiful? Ha, that just means what I'm doing right now is all show and no substance."

Bai Wujie shook his head and said calmly...

"If I were to unleash the true Heavenly Martial Fist, you certainly wouldn't find it beautiful. On the contrary, you would be afraid, you would tremble, you would feel your bladder tightening!"

Just as Bai Wujie said, he was indeed not very good at this Heavenly Martial Killing Fist... This fist technique and divine skill was created by the Great White Shark Heavenly Dao, which once dominated the world.

However, he was not good at this style of boxing, not because he was incapable of severing his emotions and desires.

Shinobu glared at Shiro with displeasure, though she certainly couldn't look at him like a child anymore...

But Shinobu Kocho just couldn't get used to his "dirty mouth" habit.

But now is not the time to talk nonsense.

"My lord has replied and wishes to meet with you," Shinobu Kocho said softly.

"But I need to go to headquarters first, and then someone from Yin will come to pick you up."

Bai Wujie looked at Kocho Shinobu and suddenly chuckled...

"I don't care about your habit of hiding your true intentions, but do you also want me to be transported around like a piece of 'goods'?"

Bai Wujie understands the Demon Slayer Corps' cautious approach, but he simply cannot accept the idea of ​​the weak being treated like cargo and transported around at will.

"Fine, go see your lord. We'll talk about it later."

Shinobu Kocho wanted to say something more, but Bai Wujie waved his hand to interrupt her. Shinobu Kocho obediently shut her mouth, turned around and left.

"Hey, this world may be small, but the interesting things in it make me even more interested."

Bai Wujie wriggled his arms, and after a burst of violent movement from his bones, he looked at his hands and his body, which was clearly a size larger than before, and chuckled...

Physical growth is a necessary condition because the determining factors of magnetic field power are not just simple strength, but also complete realm and power flow.

If the ultimate realm refers to a more efficient use of power, then power flow refers to how to restore magnetic field power more quickly.

The improvement of flow is diverse and quite complex, but the most intuitive point is body size—a short and weak body can hardly withstand more power flow, while a large body can relatively have more power flow.

Of course, such a simple and straightforward statement is completely invalid for the strongest beings... but for Bai Wujie, who has not even been able to break through the magnetic field rotation at this moment, this is an important link.

Unfortunately, his body, which had degenerated to the age of about seven, simply couldn't withstand much power flow... If he fought at full strength, his recovery speed would inevitably not be able to keep up with the power consumption.

However, physical growth cannot be stimulated by electric current, so Bai Wujie used some special methods.

rustle……

With a soft rustling of wind, a figure flashed into the shadows of the corridor behind Bai Wujie, who then withdrew his fist and let out a soft breath…

"Just say what's on your mind."

"Yes, Lord Wujie." Ling Yuzi knelt on one knee and said with utmost respect...

Ghost cells are undoubtedly what Bai Wujie is most interested in in this world.

It has an extremely strong ability to divide, can divide infinitely without ignoring telomerase loss, and has a powerful self-healing ability, which brings about so-called immortality and ultra-fast regeneration.

Of course, the price of all this is that this mutated DNA has very obvious defects...

Any ultraviolet radiation can become an "allergen" that causes the DNA helix of this cell to break down rapidly...

And this is because the population containing these cells lacks an immune system...

Ghosts that cannot resist allergens will suffer genetic collapse at an extremely rapid rate due to ultraviolet radiation, ultimately dying without a burial place.

With such an obvious flaw, Bai Wujie would never allow himself to become a so-called ghost.

What's even more interesting, of course, is Bai Wujie's research on another level of this cell.

That is the principle behind Muzan Kibutsuji's "control" over these demons.

That wasn't just a matter of consciousness or the mind. By understanding and mastering the dying residual cells, Bai Wujie cracked part of the root of Muzan's secret.

The fundamental reason he controls every ghost is because the cells within these ghosts are cells that he himself created...

The cells that divide out retain that special base sequence when they combine with the host.

This base sequence ensured that the split demon was completely under Muzan's control...

Cells that simply activate this base sequence division can be manipulated at will by Muzan.

This is why Muzan can kill these demons with just a thought...

He even set a special activation code in this part of the base sequence to ensure absolute control over these ghosts.

Once the subconscious mind actively utters information about Muzan Kibutsuji, the activated base sequence will begin to express a large number of amino acids.

Then, the long chains of amino acids fold into a massive amount of protein, causing the organism to exhibit a horrific death, much like a cancer cell going berserk.

As for how Muzan projects his will through these cells, Bai Wujie is not clear on that for the time being.

It wasn't that he didn't understand, but rather that the existing conditions didn't support his research. Without sufficient tools and equipment, relying solely on the power of electric current, he could only proceed to this extent!

He felt a pang of regret for his lack of knowledge; if he had studied the information on the computer more thoroughly, he might have been able to delve deeper into these matters.

But there's no point in saying all this nonsense.

With his existing abilities, he could directly alter the base sequence of any demon's cells by using electric current, thus forcibly changing the fact that the demon was subject to Muzan.

Zero is a prime example, but this minor surgery is extremely dangerous—it's like an experiment where you're burned to kill the virus, and even ghosts are few who can handle it.

Bai Wujie couldn't actually guarantee that the Zero Child, once freed from control, would still be able to disguise himself well in front of Muzan. Even if some cells retained the corresponding base sequence, he might still discover it.

But now it seems that Bai Wujie's biggest enemy in this world is someone who isn't very meticulous.

The fact that no problem with the remainder was found is good; Bai Wujie has now obtained a nail to drive next to Kibutsuji Muzan!

However, these are still not the focus of Bai Wujie's research on ghost cells.

Besides their ability to divide and regenerate at supersonic speeds, these ghost cells actually have another very powerful characteristic.
