Chapter 671: Yecheng's Unique Vortex Pattern!
Chapter 671: Yecheng's Unique Vortex Pattern!
"We must hurry to that place. If this Night City you speak of is as powerful as you claim, then this might be our only chance to defeat Gyutaro Kurumado."
After hearing about Night City's feats from Tanjiro Kamado, Tsuzuki's previously calm expression turned anxious. She quickly returned to her room, rummaging through various unknown potions and packing them into a medical kit.
Then, she asked Yushiro to carry the exhausted Tanjiro as they prepared to head towards the battlefield where Gyutaro Kurumado was fighting.
The reason for bringing the fatigued Tanjiro was primarily to have him as a strong witness.
After all, Tsuzuki was aware that her and Yushiro's identities as Man-Eating Demons might make the other party skeptical and hesitant to cooperate.
In this situation, having Tanjiro as a credible witness was essential.
On their way to the battlefield, Tsuzuki also informed Tanjiro about her history with Gyutaro Kurumado.
Tanjiro was surprised to learn that the one who had killed his entire family was none other than Gyutaro Kurumado.
"The 'Spirit Pillar' you mentioned is likely the strongest pillar the Demon Slayer Corps has had in centuries, and this can be deduced from the commotion their battles create.
In all these years, I've never seen anyone fight Gyutaro Kurumado head-on to this extent."
"However, even though Night City, the 'Spirit Pillar,' is incredibly powerful, defeating Gyutaro Kurumado is not a simple task.
Gyutaro Kurumado is also a master of medicine and modification. Over the past millennium, he has transformed his body into an almost immortal monster.
Ordinary humans and even Man-Eating Demons have only one brain and one heart, but Gyutaro Kurumado, through his medical knowledge, has created multiple organs.
Destroying just one of his heads or hearts won't kill him; he has five brains and seven hearts."
Tanjiro was already astounded by Tsuzuki's revelations, but she continued without pause: "And that's just a fraction of his power.
Gyutaro Kurumado's most formidable escape method is self-division, allowing him to split his body into 1,800 fragments like a self-destructing explosion.
Even if the divided fragments are destroyed, it's not a problem as long as one fragment of Gyutaro Kurumado survives. He can then use his unparalleled regenerative ability to fully restore himself."
Tsuzuki was one of the witnesses to the battle between Gyutaro Kurumado and Kei Ken Eiji many years ago. Even the powerful Kei Ken Eiji could only eliminate 1,500 of Gyutaro Kurumado's divided fragments.
Not only is Gyutaro Kurumado powerful, but his survival skills and tenacity far surpass human imagination.
Even if you defeat him, it doesn't mean you can kill him!
Tsuzuki understood Gyutaro Kurumado's personality well; she knew that if he perceived someone as a threat to his life, he would choose to hide.
Kei Ken Eiji had faced a similar situation, enduring until the end of his lifespan.
Tsuzuki's urgency in reaching the battlefield stemmed from her concern that if Night City defeated Gyutaro Kurumado, he might choose to escape through self-division.
If Gyutaro Kurumado decided to hide, finding him would be an arduous task.
After centuries of research, Tsuzuki had finally discovered a way to defeat and kill Gyutaro Kurumado—by using drugs to revert him to a normal human and then killing him!
Gyutaro Kurumado's strength and resilience stemmed from the power of the Man-Eating Demons.
As long as the source of power is eliminated, the opponent's seemingly immortal ability will naturally disappear.
Tsuzuki's research is not yet perfect, as she lacks high-quality materials like the Twelve Moon Ghosts.
However, the medicine she currently possesses is sufficient to temporarily suppress Gyutaro Kurumado's power as a man-eating demon.
If Yecheng is willing to cooperate, they might just have a chance to defeat Gyutaro Kurumado in Asakusa this time!
"Boom——————!"
Before Tanjiro Kamado and Tsuzuki could arrive, they saw from a distance Gyutaro Kurumado transforming once again into a colossal monster with a split outer surface, a mouth divided into two halves, and numerous sharp teeth.
Behind this gaping monster, there were also iron thorn bushes formed from Gyutaro Kurumado's blood, rapidly spreading in all directions.
"Roar——————!"
The monster let out a tremendous roar, and the sound waves instantly turned into a shockwave that spread outwards.
Under this shockwave, the ordinary people in Asakusa who couldn't escape in time instantly collapsed with blood gushing from their seven orifices.
As their bodies fell, they were also pierced by the blood thorn bushes on the ground.
These blood thorn bushes were formed from Gyutaro Kurumado's blood, and the fate of the Asakusa residents impaled by the thorns was clear to all.
Due to their slightly greater distance and strong abilities, Tanjiro and Tsuzuki only experienced dizziness from Gyutaro Kurumado's roar, without suffering from bleeding from the seven orifices.
However, when they regained their senses, they found that hundreds of freshly created man-eating demons had appeared around them!
Although these suddenly appearing demons were mass-produced by Gyutaro Kurumado, their strength was considerable due to being infected by Gyutaro Kurumado's complete form.
Compared to the Twelve Moon Ghosts, they might be inferior, but they were definitely on par with Suzu's previous level.
Tanjiro and Tsuzuki, who were about to reach Yecheng, saw the man-eating demons rushing towards them, and their expressions immediately turned grim.
"Spirit Breath - Quintet Form · Mad Butterfly!"
Ultra-high-speed multi-segment strikes erupted in the center of the battlefield, accompanied by blue butterflies made of spiritual energy fluttering in the air.
Whether it was Gyutaro Kurumado's whip tentacles striking towards Yecheng or the man-eating demon army surrounding him like a tidal wave, they were all instantly shredded by the chaotic sword energy that burst forth!
As the continuous high-speed slashes gradually subsided, Yecheng's body suddenly erupted with powerful materialized spiritual energy.
This was the first time he had unleashed a spiritual pressure burst since arriving in this world! In the past, his opponents were often too weak, and he could resolve issues with minimal spiritual energy and swordsmanship.
However, seeing the massive Gyutaro Kurumado before him, Yecheng felt that the opponent deserved his full attention.
As the spiritual pressure burst forth, black tattoos resembling demon patterns began to appear on Yecheng's skin, and his body temperature started to rise.
If there were any knowledgeable individuals present, they would undoubtedly be astonished to discover that the patterns on Yecheng's skin were not ordinary tattoos but a power known as "Vortex Patterns"!
