Their eyes narrowed.

next second.

Three more figures appeared here.

Muichiro Tokito, Mitsuri Kanroji, Shinobu Kocho.

The three of them drew their swords together and severed the two spiked whips.

Muzan's eyes narrowed.

boom!

A figure crashed heavily from the sky, landing right in front of Muzan.

Holding a broad axe and a meteor hammer connected by a long chain, with markings on his face, like a mythical king, Gyomei Himejima looked at Muzan and spoke.

"Amitabha, I've finally found you... Muzan Kibutsuji."

Then Obanai Iguro, Tengen Uzui, Tanjiro, Inosuke, Zenitsu, and others appeared one after another, surrounding Muzan in the desolate grassland on the edge of the mountain forest.

Muzan looked around, veins bulging on his face, his killing intent boiling.

"Damn the Demon Slayer Corps, damn the Ubuyashiki clan!"

Tamayo and Yushiro walked up to Giyu Tomioka's side. Tamayo looked at Muzan with icy eyes and said, "Kibutsuji Muzan, today is your death day. Go to hell and atone for the sins of those you have harmed."

"Hahaha."

Muzan laughed wildly: "Kill me? Do you think you can do it just by having more people?"

"Isn't it okay?"

A clear voice rang out from not far away.

The laughter of Wucan abruptly stopped.

It saw the tall, slender figure walking to Tamayo's side, its face deathly pale, looking as if it had swallowed a dead fly—it was an extremely unsightly sight.

Ron looked at Muzan and smiled, "Don't worry, I won't make a move."

"I believe they can kill you too."

Upon hearing his words, Muzan didn't know whether to feel relieved or angry.

How could I, the Ghost King, have fallen to such a state overnight...?

"Die, Muzan Kibutsuji!"

Sanemi Shinazugawa was the first to attack, followed by Gyomei Himejima, and then all the Pillars attacked together.

Tanjiro and the others also joined the fight.

The group surrounded and attacked Muzan Kibutsuji.

In an instant, various sword techniques blossomed like flowers, sword energy and slashes flew everywhere, blades collided and clashed with whips and halberds, producing a continuous series of clanging sounds, and cold light scattered everywhere.

Ron sat leisurely on a nearby hill, holding a jug of fine wine, watching the fateful battle between humans and demons, between the demon-slaying swordsman and the progenitor of demons.

The sky in the distance is about to turn white.

Under the combined assault of the Pillars, who used all their skills, Muzan Kibutsuji was gradually forced to unleash his full power. His form began to deform and twist, eventually transforming into a grotesque monster with no human shape, five brains and seven hearts, and covered in whips and barbed whips on his arms.

In an instant, the pillars were driven into a desperate situation.

But when faced with a desperate situation, the Pillars and Tanjiro's group of five unleashed even greater power, overwhelming Muzan Kibutsuji in one fell swoop.

Meanwhile, due to the drugs developed by Tamayo, Muzan Kibutsuji is gradually losing his ability to maintain his physical body, and his strength is rapidly declining.

The Pillars seized the opportunity and severed Muzan's most dangerous whip in one fell swoop. Gyomei Himejima smashed its head with a hammer. Kyojuro Rengoku and Sanemi Shinazugawa severed the spikes that grew from its two arms. Shinobu Kocho, Mitsuri Kanroji, and Obanai Iguro pierced its three hearts. Muichiro Tokito severed five of its whips. Zenitsu Agatsuma, Inosuke Hashibira, Kanao, and Genya Shinazugawa joined forces to sever the remaining four whips.

"It's over! Muzan!"

Having awakened to the Transparent World and mastered the Thirteen Forms of Sun Breathing during the battle, Tanjiro and Giyu Tomioka severed its neck and pierced its three hearts.

With only one heart left, Muzan, driven to the brink of despair, unleashed his final act.

The appearance of a stillborn infant.

The ever-growing layers of flesh enveloped its true form, ignoring the attacks from the pillars, and strode forward in one direction.

But it was already close to dawn, and all the pillars still had fighting power.

When the sun rises in the east.

Muzan turned to ashes in the sunlight.

Everything is settled.

Ron dropped the flask in his hand and stood up.

He stood with his arms around his head, looking at the exhausted people who had collapsed onto the grass, and chuckled softly, "That was quite a fight."

Shinobu Kocho seemed to hear his voice and turned her head to look.

The tall, slender figure waved to her with his back to her, smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work," before disappearing into the morning light.

On the hill.

All that remained was a Nichirin Blade stuck diagonally in the ground, and a vial of medicine hanging from it.

Goodbye... Mr. Ron

Shinobu Kocho gazed in that direction and spoke softly, a tear sliding down her cheek.

The bright morning light shines upon the earth.

From now on, there will be no more ghosts in the world.

……

[The Demon Slayer arc has come to an end. What will the next world be like?]

1. A world where a bald-headed demon king exists.

"This year there has been a large number of mosquitoes, and they are a completely new species..."

"An urgent announcement: A large swarm of mosquitoes has appeared in Z City, and reports indicate that the attacked livestock have turned into mummies..."

The news was just broadcast on television.

On the streets of Z city, sirens sounded, warning people to evacuate.

"Waaaaah, an emergency evacuation notice has been issued! The disaster level is 'ghost'! Residents, please do not go outside! Repeat, an emergency has been issued..."

On the roof of a house, the blond cyborg Genos stood in front of a dead bird that had turned into a mummified corpse, his eyes coldly fixed on a strange swarm of mosquitoes in the distance.

"Add as target".

Inside a building not far from him.

A bald man encountered his lifelong enemy: the mosquito.

…………

The top of a building in Z city.

Space rippled and distorted like the surface of water.

Then a tall, slender figure wearing a blue haori and with a high ponytail stepped out.

"here it is……"

Having crossed the dimensional barrier from the Demon Slayer world to arrive here using the power of the system, Ron looked around and was slightly astonished at the tall buildings he hadn't seen in a long time.

"A modern city?"

"Ok?"

Ron seemed to sense something and turned to look in one direction.

Boom!

It was accompanied by a loud roar.

A kilometer away in that direction, flames from the explosion shot into the sky.

After Ron saw the scene of the blonde cyborg and Mosquito Girl fighting with his Reincarnation Eye, he was slightly stunned, but then he realized what was happening.

"Could it be that this is..."

When he saw the bald man carrying insect repellent spray, running wildly after mosquitoes into the street, he had no more doubts.

This is absolutely the world of One-Punch Man!

[Beep, detecting the host's current dimensional world—the One-Punch Man world. 20 sign-in points have been earned, allowing return to the One Piece world. Sign-in location search in progress... estimated time: three days.]

buzzing.

Ron looked over there and saw billions of mosquitoes gathering together in the sky above the street, forming a strange and twisted black sphere. Inside the sphere, an extraordinary aura was brewing.

"This is the weirdo?"

A hint of interest appeared in Ron's azure eyes.

As far as he knew, this world had powerful heroes, monsters powerful enough to destroy planets, and... an invincible bald demon king.
