Chapter 83 Headquarters Trial
Chapter 83 Headquarters Trial
......
Lei is the demon he values most in the lower rank because his experiences are similar to his own, and he is also very talented.
With proper training, it has a high chance of becoming a high-ranking officer in the future.
Fearing that the gathering of ghosts might threaten his rule in the future, he ordered all ghosts to act alone and not in groups.
Lei is the only exception; he can gather other ghosts at Nata Spider Mountain and play house.
However, what he didn't expect was that Rui, the fifth Lower Moon, was actually killed, and more importantly, he died at the hands of a Pillar.
Instead, he died at the hands of a strange human boy.
The boy didn't use poison or a Nichirin Blade, but rather a technique similar to Blood Demon Art, which instantly killed Rui.
Although he hadn't experienced it firsthand, he felt that he would probably be in danger if he were to be hit by it.
What's more troublesome is that if the Demon Slayer Corps were to master something like Blood Demon Art, their strength would inevitably increase significantly.
"Nakime, gather all the Lower and Upper Moon demons at the Infinity Castle!"
Muzan Kibutsuji turned his head to look at a one-eyed female demon behind him who was playing the biwa for him.
Although the one-eyed female demon is not one of the Twelve Demon Moons, she possesses the strength of an Upper Moon demon and is a demon he values.
His Blood Demon Art involves spatial abilities, allowing him to bring the Twelve Demon Moons into his stronghold, Infinite Castle, at any time.
Killing the tired boy made him uneasy; he had to find out more about the boy.
But he couldn't possibly do it himself, because he was afraid of dying.
Indeed, as the most powerful demon in the world, his greatest fear is death.
Even though he was strong enough to easily kill any one of the Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps, or even wipe out the entire Demon Slayer Corps, he never dared to take action himself.
He simply kept transforming himself into a demon to fight against the Demon Slayer Corps.
Because back then, he encountered a Demon Slayer Corps swordsman named Yoriichi Tsugikuni, and he thought he could easily kill him.
He was almost killed by the other party, just a hair's breadth away, and even now, thinking about it still makes him feel lingering fear.
Yoriichi Tsugikuni died long ago, but the knife wounds he left him still haunt him to this day.
Therefore, he would never personally deal with the Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen unless he was absolutely certain of victory.
I'm just afraid I might run into Yoriichi Tsugikuni again.
Meanwhile, Goku followed Mita and all the members of the Demon Slayer Corps to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.
The Demon Slayer Corps headquarters is located in a mountainous area far from the city. Goku, who is not a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, was asked to wear an eye patch on the way.
Little Wukong didn't mind at all.
Mita told him that this was a necessary measure to prevent the headquarters' location from being leaked.
If Goku is willing to join the Demon Slayer Corps later, he will be able to freely enter and leave headquarters.
The Demon Slayer Corps headquarters is quite large, almost comparable to a typical human town, and has many wooden buildings.
Little Wukong was put in a separate room that night.
As for dinner, Mita knew how much Goku could eat, so he didn't go hungry.
The next day, Goku woke up in the white space and entered the world of Demon Slayer, appearing in a room at the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.
He pushed open the door and saw Tanjiro carrying a box, as well as the blond-haired man and the boar-headed man.
The blond-haired guy is named Zenitsu Agatsuma, and the pig-headed guy is named Inosuke Hashibira.
"Good morning!"
Little Wukong enthusiastically raised his hand in greeting.
"Hahaha, don't cry, let's duel! If I defeat you, I'll be the strongest!"
Upon seeing Little Goku appear, the pig-headed man immediately charged excitedly towards him, like a wild boar running wildly.
"Pigs swooping in!"
Thanks to Goku's appearance yesterday, none of the three suffered serious injuries, and Goku even helped treat them along the way.
So when they got up today, their injuries had fully healed.
However, because their Nichirin Blade was broken by their father, Oni-chan, they are currently without any swords.
Therefore, when the boar-headed man charged at Goku, he was unarmed.
"Dueling is my favorite thing!"
Goku was in a great mood when someone challenged him to a duel first thing in the morning.
With a light leap, Little Goku dodged the pig-headed man's sudden charge, and then delivered a whip kick, knocking the pig-headed man unconscious to the ground.
"Inosuke!!!"
Only then did the scarred boy and the blond-haired boy realize what was happening. They rushed over and bowed repeatedly to Little Wukong, apologizing profusely.
At the same time, I was once again shocked by Goku's strength; Inosuke was actually defeated in one move.
No wonder he's the boy who killed Lower Moon Five and defeated the Insect Pillar.
"No need to apologize. I love dueling, but he's too weak. He needs to train harder."
Little Wukong waved his hand, not minding at all.
"Wukong!"
Just then, a familiar voice rang out, and it was Mita walking over.
Good morning, Uncle Mita.
Little Wukong raised his hand in greeting.
"Good morning."
Mita responded with a laugh:
"Wukong, our lord wishes to see you and has something to discuss with you."
Last night, after arranging food and lodging for Little Wukong, he left headquarters and was summoned by the lord for a private audience.
The lord is not always at headquarters; he only appears occasionally, and many orders are conveyed by crows.
Even though he had been a member of the Demon Slayer Corps for so many years, this was the first time he had been summoned by his master alone.
The lord summoned him mainly to learn about the entire process of how he met Little Wukong and all related information.
He could understand that Goku had the strength to defeat the Pillars and possessed various other abilities.
No amount of attention from our lord is excessive.
The reason the Lord is meeting with Goku this time is probably to personally invite Goku to join the Demon Slayer Corps.
"OK!"
Little Wukong nodded and did not refuse.
As Uncle Mita said, since the Master is the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps, he must obtain the Master's permission to join the Demon Slayer Corps and learn Breathing Techniques.
"You come too. You must explain the situation honestly in a moment, only then will there be any chance to save your and your sister's lives."
Seeing that Goku agreed, he turned his head and looked at Tanjiro, who was carrying a box, with some sympathy.
Goku went to see his master because he was invited to join the Demon Slayer Corps.
Tanjiro's current destination is to face the joint judgment of the Master and the nine Pillars.
If things go wrong, Tanjiro and his demon sister Nezuko might be killed on the spot by the Pillars.
Some of the pillars have rather bad tempers.
"I see!"
Tanjiro took a deep breath and said to the blond-haired man next to him:
"Zenitsu, take Inosuke to rest. I'll be back after I see the lord."
"Tanjiro..."
The blond-haired boy looked worried, but after being comforted by the scarred boy, he nodded and dragged the pig-headed boy away.
So, led by Mita, Goku and Tanjiro, who was carrying a box, arrived at the courtyard of the largest building in the headquarters.
Meanwhile, someone was already waiting in the courtyard.
However, it wasn't the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps, but rather one of the nine strongest Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Seven of them stood in the center of the courtyard, each exuding an imposing aura.
There were two others, one of whom was standing in the corner; he was none other than the taciturn Yoshiyuki Tomioka.
The other was Snake Pillar, a young man with yellow eyes who was half-lying on a tree trunk in the yard, entwined by a white snake.
