------------------------------------------------
"Kibutsuji Muzan escaped, so I'll fight you guys first!"
Seeing himself surrounded, Little Goku roughly understood what was happening, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
As long as the owl was there, after dealing with these Upper Ranks, he would be able to find Kibutsuji Muzan again within a night.
Moreover, dueling with Upper Rank Demons was also a form of training.
"Forget it, I'll fight you later. I'll go deal with another troublesome guy first."
Just as he struck a fighting pose, he thought for a moment and immediately used Apparition to disappear from the spot.
When he reappeared, he was back in the Demon City.
His range of sensing Ki was fifteen kilometers, but that didn't mean his Apparition distance was only fifteen kilometers.
The maximum range of his Apparition could span an entire country.
So even if he was teleported to a very distant underground cave, he could use Apparition to return.
After reappearing this time, he immediately sensed the location of the demon in the center of the Demon City and disappeared again using Apparition.
"What!"
Seeing Little Goku appear before her, Nakime thought, "This is bad," and was about to pluck her biwa again to use her Blood Demon Art to teleport Little Goku away.
But her speed in plucking the biwa was clearly not as fast as Little Goku's attack speed.
"Breath of Wind, Eighth Form: Primary Violent Wind Slash!"
Little Goku used the Breath of Wind technique, making his already terrifying speed even more terrifying. He used his hand as a blade, transforming Ki into a cutting edge.
Before Nakime's hand could even touch the biwa strings, he had already unleashed thousands of slashes.
Nakime's body instantly turned into thousands of fragments.
Nakime, who possessed the strength of an Upper Rank Demon despite not being one, still didn't die even after being cut into thousands of pieces.
Instead, she was diligently squirming and gathering. If given a few minutes, she could fully recover.
But Little Goku clearly wouldn't give Nakime that chance. He raised his hand and unleashed a single-handed Energy Wave, instantly vaporizing the thousands of squirming pieces of flesh.
This demon, who could use spatial Blood Demon Art, had to be killed first. Otherwise, if he painstakingly found Kibutsuji Muzan with the owl,
and Kibutsuji Muzan was teleported away again, it would be very troublesome.
"First, warm up with those Upper Ranks, then fight Kibutsuji Muzan."
With a decision made, Little Goku once again used Apparition to arrive at the cave.
"Alright, now we can begin."
"Finish him quickly; don't give him a chance to use his spatial abilities to escape!"
Kibutsuji Muzan's angry voice echoed in the minds of the seven Upper Ranks. They immediately unleashed their strongest Moves again, surrounding Little Goku.
Just now, when they clashed with the Nine Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps, the Nine Pillars were completely overwhelmed and struggling.
If they hadn't been teleported away, in a little while, they would have directly annihilated the Nine Pillars.
So at this moment, they were quite confident in their strength, believing that as long as Little Goku didn't get a chance to unleash that initial Move again, they could definitely cut him down on the spot.
And Little Goku indeed did not unleash another Kamehameha.
On one hand, using Kamehameha consumed a lot of stamina; even he couldn't use it many times at full power.
On the other hand, the burst speed of Kamehameha, unless it was face-to-face, made it easy for Upper Ranks to dodge.
The correct way to use Kamehameha is to first hit the enemy through close combat, and while the enemy is stunned and unable to dodge, then use Kamehameha to finish them.
However, not using Kamehameha didn't mean that the Upper Ranks' attacks could do anything to him.
Kokushibo's crescent moon energy blades, shot out, couldn't even break Little Goku's defense.
And the demon sword that swung at him was smashed open by Little Goku's punch, breaking the demon sword instantly.
Doma's ice crystal flow only hit the afterimage left by Little Goku, completely unable to hit Little Goku's main body.
The huge Ice Bodhisattva was also blown apart by Little Goku's punch.
Akaza's terrifying punches were all precisely caught by Little Goku.
Hantengu's hundred-meter wooden dragons were all blown apart, one punch each.
Gyutaro's blood blades and Daki's sashes couldn't break his defense at all.
Only Gyokko's Pot of Wrath Hand had an effect.
"Hahaha, you've been hit by my Pot of Wrath Hand! No matter how strong you are, you'll eventually turn into seafood!"
Gyokko, whose hands had been blown off and were rapidly recovering, watched as Little Goku's Physical Body began to twist, and immediately burst into triumphant laughter.
He was the last demon to attack, pretending to sneak attack Little Goku from behind with speed, only to have his arms blown off by Little Goku's casual wave.
But this perfectly fell into his trap.
Because his Blood Demon Art, Pot of Wrath Hand, would turn anything it touched into seafood.
Although Little Goku had just blown off his hand, it also meant he had touched his hand, so he naturally fell victim to his Blood Demon Art.
However, Little Goku's Physical Body was too powerful, and the Ki within him resisted the effects of the Pot of Wrath Hand, resulting in a stalemate for a time.
"All Curses End!"
Little Goku chanted a spell, and a blue magic light flashed over his body, immediately dispelling the effect of the Pot of Wrath Hand.
"Alright, now it's my turn. Let me try the new Move I just created!"
Little Goku took a deep breath like a whale, combining the Ki in his body with the inhaled oxygen.
Together, they were transported by his blood to all parts of his body, maximizing his physical functions.
"Ki Breathing, First Form: Flowing Violent Strike!"
Little Goku's muscles instantly swelled, and his figure, like flowing water, swiftly circled the seven Upper Ranks who were ganging up on him.
Each time he passed an Upper Rank, he delivered a punch.
This was no ordinary punch; it was a punch infused with Ki and breathing techniques. The punch itself created a sonic boom, accompanied by a massive fist print formed by Ki.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
In the blink of an eye, Little Goku returned to his original position, and seven explosions sounded almost simultaneously.
The bodies of the seven most powerful Upper Ranks instantly exploded, turning into pieces of minced flesh.
"Still not very proficient."
Looking at the minced meat all over the ground, Little Goku took out the needle Tanjiro had given him earlier, drew some blood, and then raised his hand to unleash several single-handed Energy Waves, annihilating all the minced meat.
Yesterday, after learning the Water Breathing techniques from Uncle Sanda, he had been trying to integrate the Ki in his body into them.
After sparring with the Wind Pillar this morning, he gained a deeper understanding of breathing techniques.
Coupled with half a day of practice on somersault cloud, he finally created his own Ki Breathing First Form before entering the Demon City.
This form incorporated the elusive movement technique of Water Breathing, like flowing water, as well as the dual enhancement of Ki and breathing on the Physical Body.
And the Ki from the final punch, which, upon impact, caused explosive destruction within the enemy's body.
The power of this strike was such that even his own current body would explode if hit, let alone the Upper Ranks whose Physical Bodies were far inferior to his.
"Now, only Kibutsuji Muzan remains!"
Having dealt with the Twelve Kizuki, Little Goku's figure flashed and disappeared from the underground cave.
