"Hinokami Kagura: Raging Sun!"
[Hinokami Kagura: Raging Sun]
A thrust attack launched upwards. The tip of the sword generates a spiral of flames and surrounds the attacker.
However, this time, the flames produced by the Hinokami Kagura technique weren't fiery red, but purple, which looked very strange. Perhaps it was because Tanjiro was using Ryuji's demon-slaying sword.
Tanjiro also noticed this and was startled. "The color of the flames has changed?!"
This time, Hantengu didn't dodge Tanjiro's attack. Instead, Tanjiro managed to pierce him, causing him to fall down.
Hantengu, who fell from the ceiling, was still wailing pitifully, with no intention of attacking.
This made Tanjiro feel puzzled, but also incredibly nervous. After all, the more abnormal things were, the less simple things often were.
Hantengu happened to fall next to Tanjiro. Then, Nezuko, who was in her child form, suddenly transformed into her adult fighting form. This form was the same as when Nezuko lost control back then.
Nezuko, who had transformed into her fighting form, kicked Hantengu away, seemingly unwilling to let any danger get close to Tanjiro.
"Nezuko, don't turn into that form. I don't want you to lose control again!" Seeing Nezuko transform into this form, Tanjiro couldn't help but worry that Nezuko would lose control again like last time.
Just as Nezuko kicked Hantengu away, Muichiro Tokito, coordinating with Nezuko, slid towards Hantengu again while he was still floating in the air. Then, he cut off Hantengu's head with a single slash, and Muichiro Tokito's figure slid to the back of Hantengu.
"His head was cut off!" Tanjiro was immediately drawn to Muichiro Tokito's act of cutting off Hantengu's head, but Tanjiro wasn't happy at all. Instead, his expression became even more tense.
Because Tanjiro already knew that Upper Moon demons wouldn't die from having their heads cut off.
Upper Moon demons were different from other demons. Tanjiro had already witnessed this in the Entertainment District.
"Tokito-kun, be careful! Upper Moon demons aren't afraid of having their heads cut off!"
Tanjiro immediately reminded him loudly. If it were another Pillar, Tanjiro wouldn't have bothered to remind them, because other Pillars definitely knew more than him.
But with Muichiro Tokito, whose mind was always drifting, Tanjiro wasn't sure if he would remember this.
As soon as Tanjiro finished speaking, Hantengu's severed head quickly grew a robust body.
Behind Muichiro Tokito, the headless body that was facing away from him also grew a new head.
The old man's head, which had a bump on his forehead, also changed as the body grew, transforming into the appearance of a young man.
If they were to rank the Upper Moon demons by appearance at this time, then Hantengu's appearance would definitely be below Doma and above Akaza.
The other individual, whose body had grown a new head, was no longer the old and frail appearance, but also the appearance of a young man.
"They've split up. Is it a symbiotic relationship again?" Tanjiro couldn't help but analyze.
"Leave the one behind to me! Tokito-kun, you deal with the one in front!" After analyzing the situation, Tanjiro immediately took action and charged towards the Hantengu behind Muichiro Tokito.
