"When you can maintain Total Concentration Breathing—Water Breathing—for twenty-four hours, congratulations, you've reached a new level. Beating Kanao will be a piece of cake!"
Tanjiro was shocked. He questioned doubtfully, "Senior Ryuji, is that even possible?"
"It's a fundamental requirement for becoming a Hashira. Don't expect to achieve it overnight. Start with small goals. Once you can maintain it for an hour, gradually increase the duration until breathing becomes an inseparable part of you," Ryuji continued.
"Senior Ryuji, can you do that?" Tanjiro curiously asked.
Ryuji nodded without elaboration.
Maintaining Total Concentration Breathing for twenty-four hours was no longer a challenge for Ryuji; his Breathing Style had reached the ultimate level.
He had mastered all the techniques of Water Breathing, explaining why he could help the Moonslayer members find their optimal breathing rhythms and identify their weaknesses.
The two Hidden members silently memorized Ryuji's words; achieving this standard meant qualifying for Hashira status.
After receiving Ryuji's guidance, Tanjiro didn't stay long. After finishing his tea, he said goodbye. "Thank you very much, Senior Ryuji! I'll be going now!"
On his way back, Tanjiro pondered Ryuji's words.
Naho, Kiyo, and Sumi greeted him, "Kamado-san! Kamado-san!"
Lost in thought, Tanjiro didn't hear them and walked past.
Concerned, Naho grabbed his sleeve, stopping him.
Tanjiro noticed them and greeted them. "Hello!"
Naho asked, "Kamado-san, what's wrong? You seemed lost in thought."
Tanjiro scratched his head, "I was thinking about what Senior Ryuji said."
Kiyo curiously asked, "What did he say?"
"Senior Ryuji said to defeat Kanao, I need to maintain Total Concentration Breathing constantly. Will that be difficult?" Tanjiro replied.
Naho confirmed, "That's right. Those who can and cannot do this have vastly different strengths. Kanao-san can beat you because she maintains Total Concentration Breathing constantly. To win, you must master Total Concentration Constant."
"Total Concentration Constant?! Senior Ryuji wants me to learn Total Concentration Constant?" Tanjiro asked.
Naho, Kiyo, and Sumi nodded in unison.
