Anime: Fight Sukuna at the beginning?

At the same time that Fang Yi was slowly advancing towards the Demon Slayer Corps base, the atmosphere inside the Demon Slayer Corps base was somewhat solemn.

Although Ubuyashiki Yoshiya did not formally convene a meeting, several "pillars" had already arrived at the meeting place notified before.

This morning, two "pillars" died and one was injured in front of everyone, and according to the conclusion of the insect pillar, Kocho Shinobu, who was responsible for treating the Mist Pillar, Tokito Muichiro.

This genius swordsman missed the best treatment period and was unfortunately declared dead.

Combined with the previously dead snake pillar, the missing flame pillar, and the wind pillar who had lost his combat effectiveness and was just able to walk on the ground, although none of the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps have shown the desire to escape, and rarely mentioned a pessimistic attitude towards combat.

But the low and frustrated mood still spread among the swordsmen. After all, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya did not fabricate the battle report to deceive people, and the Demon Slayer Corps' previous battle line had been shrinking.

From the nine pillars to the A-class swordsmen, and even some of the lower-level swordsmen, the losses were not small, and the death of familiar companions has become a common occurrence.

Death, despair, depression, and even a kind of doubt about the meaning of staying in the Demon Slayer Corps.

Naturally, some swordsmen will feel uneasy and doubt whether they can defeat the legendary demon king.

They even discussed whether the legendary swordsman named Fang Yi, who killed the third upper string and several upper strings, was a fictional person to boost the low morale.

On the way to the meeting, the wind pillar, Fuzugawa Shima, had heard several such words.

There are swordsmen who began to question the authenticity of the news of Fang Yi's existence.

"In my opinion, the man named Fang Yi was made up by the leader to boost the low morale."

"After all, according to previous records, one upper string needs at least three 'pillars' to fight against."

"The rumor is that he can fight against four upper strings alone, which is a bit exaggerated and too unrealistic."

There are people who have witnessed Fang Yi's style and believe in Fang Yi.

"No, I have seen that swordsman. Although he looks ordinary at first glance and there is nothing special about him except his appearance, he is obviously a powerful person."

"According to the swordsman in the Asakusa base before, he cleared the ghosts of a street in just a few tens of seconds. The swordsmen who washed the street that day washed several times before they washed the street clean."

"At the same time, he also discovered two new 'pillars', who are obviously the protagonists in the story."

"It is obviously possible for such a person to achieve the achievements in the rumors."

There are also rational analysis, starting from reality.

"The strength is definitely there, and the record should be true, but attributing the glory to one person is a kind of deification."

"In the final analysis, the current Demon Slayer Corps needs such a hero, even if it is fake."

"It should have the combat power of a 'pillar', but not so terrifying."

Listening to these swordsmen who he thought were weak, using [The Emperor hoes the ground with a golden hoe] to speculate based on their own strength, the Wind Pillar, Fushigawa Shima, was somewhat speechless.

These swordsmen actually questioned the strength of the swordsman named Fang Yi, and speculated that Ubuyashiki Yoya released false news to create a god.

Although he has not seen the swordsman named Fang Yi yet, it does not affect the Wind Pillar, Fushigawa Shima,'s recognition of the strength of this new 'pillar'.

As the Wind Pillar walked towards the courtyard, he muttered his opinion of Fang Yi.

"With the strength of Tomioka Giyuu and the fighting power of Kocho Shinobu, Fang Yi must have done most of the work against the Upper Three."

"The unreliable character of Kanroji Mitsuri and the strength of Nakamori Yuto can't play much of a role."

"This swordsman's record is quite strong, but it's a pity that my body has not recovered yet, otherwise I must ask him for advice."

Then, as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw a face that he hated very much.

——

Tomioka Giyuu walked up expressionlessly and said something to Fushigawa Shiya out of the blue.

"You are still alive, are you still attending the meeting with such a body?"

If Fang Yi was here, he would immediately translate the true meaning of Tomioka Giyuu's words.

[It's great that you are alive. Your body that has just recovered from a serious injury is in need of recuperation. Wouldn't it be a bit too much of a stretch to attend the meeting?]

But obviously this remark directly ignited Fushigawa Shiya, who had a very bad relationship with Tomioka Giyuu because of a misunderstanding.

The wind pillar's words were full of thorns, and he opened his mouth and started to fight back forcefully.

"Aren't you still alive? You are such a lucky man"

"In the battle against the Upper Rank Three, there was actually a swordsman with the potential of a 'pillar', and the swordsman named Fang Yi took action."

"I don't have the same luck as you. I just relied on my special physique to reduce the reaction of the ghosts, so I was lucky enough to escape."

Tomioka Giyu opened his mouth, wanting to say that at that time, Nakamori Yuto was still an ordinary swordsman who had never killed a lower-rank ghost and could not beat the last lower-rank, and he was indeed lucky enough to meet Fang Yi.

But he turned his mind and decided to omit some words in his usual speaking style.

He stopped, said something to Fuzugawa Shima that made the wind pillar furious, and then sat down.

"I am indeed different from you and the other 'pillars'."

When Fuzugawa Shima heard this, his scarred face instantly became hideous, and he was obviously angry.

"You are very arrogant. Your strength is indeed much stronger than before, but the gap between you and other 'pillars' is not as huge as Fang Yi's."

"How dare you say that you are so confident and different from others?"

"I also heard that you want to vouch for the swordsman whose sister turned into a demon. Are you so arrogant with such a small improvement in strength?"

Giyu Tomioka replied indifferently.

"I guarantee that the demons brought by the swordsman will not eat or hurt people. There is a reason for doing so. The outcome of this trial has been determined."

Giyu Tomioka's words can be translated as [Kyouya Ubuyashiki wants to pardon the Kamado siblings, and has already attracted enough votes in favor].

But obviously this sentence goes a step further and angers Fuzugawa Shima.

The wind pillar walked straight to the courtyard, where the Kamado siblings were temporarily controlled, and prepared to do something to prove that this demon was harmful to the companions of the Demon Slayer Corps.

"I won't cooperate with demons, Tomioka Giyuu, I'll show you the true face of demons right now."

"Let me show you what kind of creature you're guaranteeing!"

"The only options for demons and humans are to be killed or eaten."

Fuzuka Shima was about to pick up Kamado Nezuko to show the demon's aggressiveness towards humans, but then he was stopped by Tomioka Giyuu.

——

In the courtyard, the wind pillar, Fuzuka Shima, who had recovered from a serious injury but had lost most of his combat power and had scars all over his face, was a little irritable.

The reason for his irritability was also very simple, it was Tomioka Giyuu who stood in front of Kamado Tanjiro and Kamado Nezuko.

The two protagonists of this trial were under strict supervision by several members of the Demon Slayer Corps early in the morning, and the original protagonists such as Agatsuma Zenitsu were also waiting for their fate.

Looking at the water pillar who had previously been at odds with him and whom he hated very much, the wind pillar, Fuzuka Shima, had lost most of his combat power, but he still did not give in in terms of momentum.

"Get out of the way, Tomioka Giyuu, are you going to protect a demon?"

"I know you recommended this swordsman to the former Water Pillar and trained him, but..."

Fuzugawa Shima looked solemn and gave his own opinion, which was also shared by most members of the Demon Slayer Corps.

"Demons are our enemies, and they must eat people to survive."

"People killed by demons cannot be resurrected, and even if you kill more demons, you can't save the dead by committing seppuku."

"For the safety of my companions, and in order not to continue losing companions due to betrayal, I must kill this demon here."

"Even if you will resent me for this, I am responsible for the safety of my companions."

Fuzugawa Shima's words were obviously recognized by Rock Pillar, Gyoumei Hirumi.

This strongest of the Taisho Nine Pillars, who was far behind the others, also expressed his opinion.

"In any case, the safety of the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps is very important. We must try our best to eliminate unstable factors."

"Liao Lin and Chen Cheng made a lot of contributions to the Demon Slayer Corps before they betrayed, but they still chose to betray and spread the news that caused us heavy losses."

"If you and Shinobu hadn't met the swordsman with amazing talent named Fang Yi, you would have died there."

The blind Rock Pillar's eyes were filled with tears, and he persuaded the Wind Pillar, Fushigawa Shimi.

"Fang Yi hasn't come yet, and the meeting hasn't started yet. There's no need to be so confrontational now."

"We are all companions fighting side by side, why make such a fuss."

"Why not listen to Fang Yi's opinion first? I believe that you, Tomioka Giyu, are willing to believe Fang Yi's judgment."

But Fushigawa Shimi shook his head firmly and said stubbornly.

"There is no need to wait until everyone is present to test the ghost. We will know whether this ghost can survive after one test."

"There is no need to waste everyone's time, especially Fang Yi's time. If we test it now, the meeting will be over soon."

"That swordsman should finish the meeting earlier and practice the sword for a while longer, and he may make a new breakthrough."

"My blood is very attractive to ghosts. This ghost must pass the blood test to survive."

Fuzuikawa Shiya was aggressive, and Tomioka Giyuu remained silent.

The scene fell into a brief silence.

——

On the other side, Tanjiro Kamado, who was temporarily controlled by other swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps, struggled and shouted.

"My sister didn't eat people. She recovered through sleep."

"She fought side by side with me and killed the failed ghosts in the Twelve Demon Months. I became a swordsman to turn her into a talent."

"In two years, she has not hurt anyone or eaten anyone."

Wind Pillar Fuzuikawa Shiya blocked Tanjiro Kamado's mouth with one sentence.

"Can you revive people killed by demons?"

"Even if you and Tomioka Giyuu both commit seppuku, will your dead companions be resurrected?"

Fuzuigawa Miya looked at the empty seats among the nine pillars, and the figures of the dead Mist Pillar, Tokito Muichiro, and Sound Pillar, Uzui Tengen, emerged in his mind.

A genius who became a 'pillar' at a very young age in two months and has great development potential, and a ninja who changed his career halfway and is a little unreliable but is very serious in carrying out his mission.

There is also the deceased Snake Pillar, who is a little lonely but not a bad person.

But they all died, died at the hands of the traitor Liao Lin, who is also a swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps.

He looked at Rengoku Chijuro, who had just become a 'pillar' with a childish face and strength, and remembered the missing Rengoku Kyojuro, the passionate and willing to help others Flame Pillar.

The Flame Pillar disappeared because of the traitor Liao Lin.

I also felt aching in my body everywhere. Because of the betrayal of the A-level swordsman Chen Cheng, I lost most of my strength and I am afraid I will not be able to catch up with the decisive battle.

Mudaki Kawamiya roared at Kawajiro Kawajiro.

"If you are like that swordsman named Fang Yi, who has the record of killing the winding string under your hands, I believe you."

"But you don't! How do you believe you?"

"Those humans who kill the powerful ghosts in Xiaxian can be betrayed, let alone you who are carrying ghosts?"

The words of Immortal Kawashima made everyone in the courtyard fall into a deadly silence.

——

Yoshiyuki Tomooka was speechless, and he was not good at speaking and could not give any reason to refuse.

[It would be great if Fang Yi was here, he would definitely give a reason]

Butterfly Ninja, who looked calm on the side but actually hated ghosts very much, also added.

"I want to live in peace with ghosts, but it's best to die after thinking about ghosts, but it's best to wait for people to discuss it."

[Look at Fang Yi’s opinion, I think his opinion is more important]

Mili in Ganlu Temple raised her hand and added stupidly.

"I'm the same. I think it's better to discuss it when Fang Yi comes back."

[I listen to Fang Yi, I agree with whatever he says]

Yuto Nakamori also expressed his views.

"In principle, I hope to pardon this swordsman, but I will also vote after Lord Fang Yi comes back."

Purgatory Chishouro also gave his own point of view.

"I think it makes sense, but I don't have enough judgment. My father asked me to listen to Fang Yi, so I have to wait for him to come back before making a decision."

Seeing this situation, Yoya Shikiya nodded. As the leader of the Demon Slayer Team, it was already the best effort he could do to communicate with the number of "pillars" in advance to try to pardon the siblings.

"It's good to wait for Fang Yi to come back."

"Shimi, sit down and rest first. You have just recovered your ability to move, don't be excited."

Mudaki Kawamiya glared at Kawajiro Kazuno, but did not sit back, but instead attacked my wife, Simono, who was beside her.

"Besides the matter of Kawamun Kazujiro, there is one more thing I want to talk about."

"This swordsman named my wife, Sanyi, is a swordsman from the [Thunder Breathing] school. He has a fellow disciple named Yu Yue, right?"

My wife, Shan Yi, nodded in surprise.

"Just admit it, the swordsman at Asakusa's stronghold saw it on that street, the ghost-turned-in-the-ghost-like Swordsman."

"The swordsman who knew him recognized him, and the knife he brought with him, the hilt was dark gold and the scabbard was black."

"There are traces of the sword technique of [Breath of Thunder] in the field. How do you explain it?"

Mudaki Kawami turned his head and said word by word to everyone.

"One of their team is carrying ghosts, and one of their fellow disciples becomes ghosts."

"I think these people are very untrustworthy and are unstable factors, so we need to clear them."

Fang Yi, who had just put on the hidden blue squid of Ganlu Temple, gave him to himself, felt a little interesting when he stepped into the venue.

[It's okay if the protagonist group is regarded as a traitor. 】

Seeing everyone present looking at him, Fang Yi smiled a standard smile on his face.

“I seem to be late, but I also bring solutions that satisfy everyone.”
