a minute ago.
In the center of the Infinite Castle, where Nakime is located.
“Um… Miss Shinobu…”
Is it really okay for us to dawdle like this?
Watching Shinobu Kocho leaping between various twisted buildings, seemingly without any aggressive intent, Mitsuri Kanroji, an honest girl, couldn't help but timidly ask a question.
"That Upper Moon demon's Blood Demon Art must involve using a biwa (a type of Chinese lute) to manipulate this space and the surrounding buildings, right...?"
Now that we've figured out their abilities, shouldn't we... try a little harder...?
Looking at Shinobu's kind gaze, Mitsuri felt as if she had done something stupid again, but she didn't know what she had done wrong or right. Her voice grew softer and softer.
"Ugh--"
Shinobu Kocho sighed softly.
"Since you know this space is all her Blood Demon Art, have you ever thought about—"
"If the other party dies, what will happen to us and the other swordsmen in this space?"
Mitsuri tilted her head.
As the surrounding buildings crumbled and collapsed, all the swordsmen were plunged into darkness, unable to distinguish up from down from left from right...
She shivered violently, a look of lingering fear on her face.
"Private Marseille! Private Marseille!"
Chapter 439 Return to the Surface
Realizing that her idea was completely unacceptable, Mitsuri resorted to traditional techniques.
They successfully gained Shinobu Kocho's forgiveness.
"But are we just going to do nothing like this?"
"So, didn't I already say we had to wait for reinforcements?"
"When will that be?"
Miri blinked her emerald-green eyes, a clear naiveté flashing in them, making her look like a freshman college student.
"Sigh—" Her adorable, dazed expression made Shinobu Kocho sigh softly again.
"Haven't you noticed that we've been talking here for so long, yet the surrounding terrain and space haven't changed at all?"
"Eh! Really!" Mitsuri's eyes lit up, and her gaze toward Shinobu Kocho held a hint of admiration.
But then, as if she had discovered something, her small nose twitched slightly.
"Um... Miss Shinobu, can you smell something sweet...?"
"No, you can't inhale this scent, or you'll become an idiot."
"Even though Shinobu has become a bit clumsy, she's still adorable~"
The sudden sound from behind startled Kanroji Mitsuri, who hurriedly turned around.
"Hey, it's Kanae-san!!!"
Suddenly, a figure appeared behind them, as if it had emerged from thin air.
She wore a haori with a butterfly pattern, a butterfly hair accessory, and a gentle smile on her face that made people feel as if they had been baptized.
It was Kanae Butterfly after she separated from Natsuhiko.
"It's too slow, sister!" Shinobu Kocho frowned, somewhat dissatisfied.
"And besides, you're the one who's clinging to childish ideals and acting silly, aren't you? Don't treat me like a child!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she noticed that Kanae and Mitsuri Kanroji had hidden to the side, pretending to be terrified, and whispered in a volume she could hear very clearly:
"How scary, so strict..."
“Mmm!” Kanroji Mitsuri nodded in agreement.
...Those two idiots!
The way the two were loudly plotting made Shinobu Kocho's forehead pop out with a thumbs-up.
"Oh right! Is Ms. Kanae the support Ms. Shinobu was talking about!?"
After being interrupted, Mitsuri, whose tension had completely disappeared, asked again.
"Oh dear~, calling me 'Miss Kanae' is too formal. Little Mitsuri, you can call me 'older sister' too~" Kanae said with a smile.
"After all, it won't be long before we're family."
puff--
Although she was mentally prepared, when Kanroji Mitsuri heard these words coming from Kanae's mouth, she was like a kettle that had boiled over, steam rising from her head.
Meanwhile, Kanae's smile took on a more sinister edge.
"I was indeed there to provide support, but it seems like we won't be needed right now..."
She looked toward the platform where Nakime was, her tone tinged with regret.
"After all, Shinobu and Mitsuri are so capable; they diverted all of Upper Moon's attention, making it easy for Tamayo-nee to succeed~"
Shinobu Kocho and Mitsuri Kanroji followed her gaze.
Behind the female ghost kneeling on the tatami mat, holding a pipa, appeared a beautiful woman in a kimono.
At this moment, she had rolled up her sleeves, revealing a section of her forearm that looked like a white lotus root.
Three bloodstains stood out on the snow-white arm, and the fragrance that everyone smelled came from the blood dripping from the wounds.
Blood Demon Art: Bewitching Blood - The Demonic Incense of Daytime!
Although she can borrow some of the Blood Demon Arts from other people, this is based on Tamayo's own tireless research into demons.
It is an achievement of science and technology.
She also possesses her own superpowers.
Blood Demon Art: Bewitching Blood.
The ability is to evaporate blood into the air, turning it into a fragrance, and using the scent to interfere with the enemy.
It's somewhat similar to illusion.
Due to some special modifications, her blood is now extremely potent, powerful enough to make Upper Moon Two completely obedient to her.
Nakime seemed to have drunk too much, swaying a couple of times before her eyes became vacant.
"Throw Muzan Kibutsuji, Kokushibo, and all the humans in the Infinity Castle outside."
Dangdang——
Upon receiving the order, Nakime gently plucked the pipa twice with her pick.
Rumbling--
In an instant, the entire Infinite City shook violently.
To everyone's astonishment, the ground beneath their feet was rising rapidly, the terrifying pressure making it impossible to move, while a large door appeared above their heads.
At the same time, Muzan, who was still asleep, was suddenly awakened.
"This is……!?"
"Narume!!!"
Although only a small portion of the toxins had been broken down, the abnormality was so obvious that he had no choice but to emerge from his cocoon prematurely.
Due to the medication, his once-perfect hair turned dry and white.
If it weren't for her still youthful face, she would look as if she had aged decades in an instant.
However, Muzan no longer had time to care about his physical condition!
"What are you doing?! Nakime!"
Muzan roared and questioned Nakime through his cells, but received no reply.
After all, Nakime was in a dreamlike state under Tamayo's Blood Demon Art.
Completely losing the ability to think, and only able to obey Tamayo's orders, he naturally had no way to respond to Muzan.
Realizing this, Muzan is preparing to forcibly control Nakime through his cells.
However, it was already too late!
thump—
With a deafening roar, the Infinite City burst forth from the ground!
The location is right where the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters is!
The mansion, now a ruin ravaged by explosives, was still emitting thick smoke. Combined with the part of the Infinite City that had burst out of the ground, it looked exceptionally messy, like a mountain of garbage.
In the middle of the ruins, Muzan, surrounded and forcefully observed by a group of Pillars, had a face so gloomy it looked as if water could be squeezed out of it.
Because he was focused on breaking down the poison in his body, he no longer had the energy to maintain the mimicry on his body surface.
The hideous appearance of a ghost is fully revealed.
It had a head of dry, white hair, was completely naked, and its limbs and lower body were covered in blood and hair. Its body was covered with huge mouths with sharp teeth.
It looks like a grotesque shape.
His face was still handsome, but paired with his monstrous body, it was even more terrifying!
At the same time, Nakime, who had just broken free of her restraints, was beheaded by a dazzling slash that was accompanied by a rain of pink petals before she could even pluck the strings of her biwa again.

"Hmm, it seems my swordsmanship hasn't gotten rusty yet~"
