Lin returned to headquarters and met Kagaya Ubuyashiki once again.
Although only a few days had passed, Lin noticed that the purple scars on Kagaya Ubuyashiki’s face had spread further.
If things continued like this, he feared it would not be long before the man’s other eye went permanently blind.
Lin could not help but sigh.
The will of this world simply bullied the weak and feared the strong.
A monster like Muzan Kibutsuji, who defied the laws of nature, had appeared within their family, yet the Heavenly Dao dared not target Muzan Kibutsuji directly.
Instead, it placed a curse upon the Ubuyashiki Family.
What kind of logic was this?
It acted timid and submissive in the face of Muzan Kibutsuji, but landed heavy blows against the Ubuyashiki Family.
Sensing Lin’s gaze, Kagaya Ubuyashiki waved his hand and spoke with calm indifference.
“There is no need to worry about my condition.
I have already received the reports from Kyojuro Rengoku and Sanemi Shinazugawa.
You truly did a wonderful job killing Lower Rank Three and Lower Rank Six in Tokyo Prefecture.” Kagaya Ubuyashiki looked at Lin again, paused for a moment to gather his thoughts, and asked, “As for that matter you mentioned, what was the outcome?” Lin recounted both the incident of “Muzan Kibutsuji logging in from a different location” and “Kokushibo almost losing his head.” Kagaya Ubuyashiki’s emotions suddenly became agitated.
“Mr.
Lin, you really did it!
For me and the Demon Slayer Corps, this is truly a monumental surprise!
Repelling Upper Rank One has never happened in the last hundred years of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Such an astonishing feat!” Lin smiled and shook his head, “A surprise is not just repelling Upper Rank One.” Facing Kagaya Ubuyashiki, Lin did not need to be as tense as he had been with Kokushibo, and many memes came easily to him.
“Let me translate for you what a real surprise is.
The surprise is that Muzan Kibutsuji has been scared like this, and he definitely will not dare to appear again for a short time.
The frequency with which his underling demons attack humans will also be greatly reduced.
Muzan Kibutsuji’s focus will surely shift to how to overcome the sun and increase his strength.
At the same time, the Demon Slayer Corps’ extermination missions should be greatly reduced, temporarily freeing the Hashira from the work of hunting demons.” Kagaya Ubuyashiki blinked suddenly, “By then, Mr.
Lin, your strength will surely increase once again.” Hearing this, Lin looked slightly embarrassed.
Dealing with such intelligent people was the most annoying; any secrets he had would be seen through by the other party.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki was right.
This was indeed Lin’s plan.
From the moment he first transmigrated here, he had only 10% synchronization.
Up to now, after just repelling Kokushibo, Lin’s synchronization had increased to 49%.
Calculating based on this progress, he estimated it would not take long before he could directly raise his synchronization to the limit.
At that time, the only difficult problems left before him would be how to find Muzan Kibutsuji and how to prevent him from splitting into over 1,800 pieces to escape again.
As for how to find Muzan Kibutsuji, Lin already had some ideas.
As for the latter, how to prevent Muzan Kibutsuji from splitting and escaping, that was something Lin needed to discuss with Kagaya Ubuyashiki.
“I have an idea, but I need your cooperation.” Kagaya Ubuyashiki’s expression shifted, “Is it about going to the Swordsmith Village?
I can arrange that now.” Lin said in a deep voice, “Going to the Swordsmith Village is also a part of this plan.
Perhaps, when the time comes, all of the Hashira will need to head to the Swordsmith Village.” Kagaya Ubuyashiki could not help but show a confused expression.
“You mean that all of the Hashira need to go to the Swordsmith Village?
Doesn’t that mean their weapons will all become damaged and need maintenance…” Kagaya Ubuyashiki suddenly stopped.
Just now, Lin had mentioned that the Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps could be temporarily freed from demon-hunting work, and now he had mentioned that perhaps the Hashira would collectively head to the Swordsmith Village.
Although he had already vaguely realized in his heart what Lin’s next plan was, a feeling called “surprise” still struck him once again.
Sure enough, he heard Lin smile and say, “The Demon Slayer Corps has lost some traditions over the years, and I happen to know a little about these things.
So, I am preparing to provide training for each of the Hashira.” As mentioned before, Lin was definitely not someone who liked to keep things to himself.
Moreover, his many skills all originated from Yoriichi Tsugikuni, not honed by himself.
And Yoriichi Tsugikuni himself was an existence who never kept things to himself and carefully guided every swordsman.
Lin still remembered that it was mentioned in the original work.
No matter who it was, Yoriichi Tsugikuni would teach his sword techniques and Breathing Style without reservation.
Even the reason why there were other derivations of Breathing Style had to do with Yoriichi Tsugikuni guiding the swordsmen of that time, helping them improve according to their own areas of expertise.
Passing these skills on to the Demon Slayer Corps once again, Lin believed that if Yoriichi Tsugikuni himself were here, he would make the same choice.
Thinking of this, Lin’s heart suddenly stirred.
He checked his synchronization, only to find that just from this thought, it had risen to 50%.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki could not help but ask, “So, what are you preparing to teach them?” Lin had long considered this question.
Breathing Style, Transparent World, Demon Slayer Mark, and Bright Red Nichirin Sword were known as the four-piece set for killing demons in the Demon Slayer world.
Among them, the one that was relatively easy to master and could rapidly increase combat power was the Bright Red Nichirin Sword.
In the original work, there were theoretically four ways to activate the Bright Red Nichirin Sword: mastering Sun Breathing, Nezuko’s Blood Demon Art, grip strength, and weapon collision.
Because of his appearance, the Kamado Family was able to survive, so Nezuko’s Blood Demon Art could be crossed out first.
As for the methods of activating the Bright Red Nichirin Sword through grip strength and weapon collision, although there was a claim that one must activate the Demon Slayer Mark in advance, Lin felt that they could try it first even if the Hashira did not yet have the Demon Slayer Mark.
If they could successfully activate the Bright Red Nichirin Sword, that would certainly be a good thing.
Even if they could not activate it, Lin had a fallback method for activating the Bright Red Nichirin Sword.
He would first find Yoriichi Tsugikuni’s sword, and after fusing it, obtain the complete Bright Red Nichirin Sword effect.
Then, after using Sun Breathing to activate the Bright Red Nichirin Sword himself, he would use the “passing the flame” method to collide his weapon with those of the other Hashira in turn.
In this way, he could also achieve “everyone with a Bright Red Nichirin Sword”!
Thus, Lin said in a deep voice, “I will teach them about the Bright Red Nichirin Sword.” After saying this, Lin explained the effects of the Bright Red Nichirin Sword in detail to Kagaya Ubuyashiki.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki subconsciously held his breath.
He finally knew just how astonishing this “surprise” truly was.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to thank him, but Lin suddenly reached out to stop him.
“Alright, no need to thank me.” Kagaya Ubuyashiki took a deep breath and slowly pushed down his agitated emotions.
He tacitly followed Lin’s lead and changed the subject, “Speaking of which, don’t you intend to go to the Butterfly Mansion to see the Kamado Family?” …
