Demon Slayer World, Infinity Castle.
"What is this?" Kibutsuji Muzan frowned slightly. As she watched these scenes, she wore a very puzzled expression.
Didn't it say Ultimate Life Form? Did the Ultimate Life Form appear right at the start of the video?
That muscular guy with the flowing long hair is the Ultimate Life Form? Is this a joke?
Although Kibutsuji Muzan thought so, she could feel that this purple-haired guy in the video... seemed to have truly undergone some kind of metamorphosis.
Muzan, who considered herself the Ultimate Life Form, now actually had a bizarre feeling.
That bizarre feeling was very clear—so clear that Muzan didn't dare to think about the implications.
"How scary, this guy."
At this time, Doma, who had been called over by Kibutsuji Muzan earlier, showed a very surprised expression. He wasn't the type to make such a face.
Normally, he would only show a harmless, gentle smile.
After all, because of his background and becoming a demon, Doma had absolutely no human emotions, and his own attitude toward combat could be described as very subtle.
To put it simply, he was strong, very, very strong. As Upper Moon Two, combined with his Blood Demon Art, he could be said to be the Demon Slayer Corps' greatest headache.
Even those at the 'Hashira' level couldn't pose much of a threat to him.
Yet now, he actually said the words 'how scary' with a surprised look on his face.
This caused Kibutsuji Muzan to glance at him.
"Muzan-sama, this guy in the video has the power to 'eat' us."
Doma spoke; this was his instinctive feeling. He felt that if he encountered Kars from the video face-to-face...
It would be much like he himself was a piece of bread.
Kars could casually pick up this 'bread' and eat him in one bite.
As a demon, Doma could clearly sense this, which was why he was so surprised. Because if even he was like this...
Then Muzan-sama might... "Keep watching, I'll talk to you later," Kibutsuji Muzan said, her face a mix of solemnity and joy.
The solemnity was due to Kars's power.
The joy was because if she became an Ultimate Life Form that didn't fear the sun, would she be just like Kars in the video?
demon slayer, Demon Slayer Corps.
"Is that Hamon/ripple?"
Tanjiro, who was lying back in his hospital bed, sat up. Then his face contorted; clearly, this movement was quite painful for him.
Due to the Upper Moon attack a few days ago, Tanjiro, whose wounds had been almost healed, was hospitalized once again with new injuries.
However, with the Hamon/ripple Breathing Technique given by Mr. Joseph, Tanjiro felt he would be fully recovered in a few more days.
But now, he recognized at a glance that the place where Kars was injured in the video was a wound caused by a Hamon/ripple attack.
"What a strong guy."
On the other side, Flame Hashira Kyojuro Rengoku, also lying in bed, watched Kars in the video with a solemn expression.
Kyojuro Rengoku said very seriously, "Such a terrifying fellow is even more frightening than the Upper Rank One who appeared a few days ago. If I were to go up and fight, I might be killed by him in less than a second."
It was terrifying. Before the video started, Rengoku even felt he might be able to cut off Kars's head.
But now, after Kars had completed his 'metamorphosis', Rengoku felt the man had been reborn.
The strength of the two might not even be in the same dimension anymore.
"...So strong."
Beside him, a beautiful young man with long hair, also wrapped up like a mummy, looked at the screen with hollow eyes and said in a flat tone, "If I went up, I'd die. There would be absolutely no chance to fight back."
"We know that without you telling us."
On the other side, a man covered in scars looked at the screen with fierce eyes and said, "This guy is no longer on the level of a 'demon'. Even that Muzan isn't as terrifying as him."
In the battle a few days ago, more than half of the Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps were heavily injured. Those with light injuries had left after some simple bandaging.
Those remaining here were all quite seriously injured.
On the other side, Kyojuro Rengoku spoke up again: "Let's keep watching the video! Everyone! This might contain the secrets of 'Hamon/ripple', so everyone needs to watch closely."
In fact, even without Rengoku saying so, the others knew this.
In that battle a few days ago, which could 'almost' be called the final decisive battle, the Hamon/ripple Breathing used by Tanjiro had shocked everyone.
Now, naturally, no one would miss an opportunity to learn Hamon/ripple.
Inside the video.
Straizo's words encouraged the soldiers, making them all pull themselves together.
"Use the ultraviolet radiation device again!!! This time, we must completely destroy him!!"
Straizo waved his hand and looked at his subordinates, saying, "Get ready, quickly!!"
"Yes!"
The soldiers nodded hastily and began to adjust the ultraviolet radiation device.
Chapter 90
On the other side, Kars watched them act without saying a word, silently looking elsewhere.
This scene puzzled the others.
"This guy, what on earth is wrong with him?!"
A young Black man looked extremely confused, not understanding what Kars was doing.
Kars, however, focused all his attention on an owl not far away and a squirrel that had jumped out from nowhere.
"What is Kars looking at?"
Speedwagon also seemed exceptionally perplexed, not quite understanding what Kars was watching.
"Th... That! Look at that!!" the young Black man, Smokey, shouted in shock.
The scene shifted slightly; green bubbles emerged from Kars's hand, and then his hand transformed into a squirrel!!
That's right! Kars's hand had turned into a squirrel.
"Wh... What's going on here!!!" the young Joseph voiced the thoughts of most people.
No matter what world it was, the fact that your hand could turn into a squirrel was truly shocking.
The squirrel detached from Kars's wrist, jumped up, scurried over to Kars's cheek, and nuzzled against it, appearing exceptionally close.
"Is it an illusion?!" Speedwagon was shocked, his voice tinged with terror. "Kars's arm turned into a squirrel!?"
*Swish—!!*
Just then, the squirrel jumped up and landed on the ground nearby.
Another squirrel saw this and made a 'lovestruck' expression, clearly taking a liking to its fellow creature.
Smokey watched this heartwarming scene and said with a subtle tone, "Haha... it feels kind of cute."
"Oh no! This is bad!!!" the young Joseph shouted, as if he had discovered something abnormal. "Watch out for that squirrel!!!"
"Huh?! Ah!!"
Accompanied by the shocked expressions of the crowd.
The squirrel, which had looked so 'gentle' and 'affectionate' just a moment ago, transformed into a terrifying monster in an instant.
It bared sharp teeth and began to frantically devour its 'fellow kind,' as if enjoying a feast.
This gruesome scene caused cold sweat to break out on many people's foreheads.
