Chapter 28 - Slaying Enmu

Yamada glanced at the crowd lying scattered all over the floor and sighed helplessly.

"Although I'd like to let you sleep a bit longer, the smell in this car is getting more and more disgusting."

Yamada casually snapped his fingers, and the violent lightning-attribute Chakra in his body instantly surged through the soles of his feet into the metal floor of the car.

Lightning Release: Chidori Current!

Zzzzt—

The extremely frantic blue current instantly spread through the metal seats and floor of the entire car.

"Aaaaaah! I'm going to be fried!"

Zenitsu, who was still running hand-in-hand with Nezuko in his dream, was instantly shocked by this violent physical electrocution, jumping three feet high from his seat. His blonde hair stood on end like a bristling hedgehog.

"Enemy attack?! Where's the prey! I will hack him into mincemeat!" Inosuke was also shocked into jumping up, drawing his dual blades and looking around blankly.

Whoosh—

Kyojuro nimbly flipped up from his seat, his hand already drawing his nichirin blade. He looked at his slightly numb palm, then at Yamada who was still sitting opposite him, and instantly understood what had happened.

"How shameful! As a Hashira, to have unknowingly fallen for a demon's trick!"

"Yamada-san, thank you for your lightning wake-up service. If not for you, the passengers on this train would likely have met a grim fate."

Tanjiro also climbed up while clutching his numb back of the head.

Seeing the disgusting lumps of flesh writhing frantically around him, his expression changed drastically. "This... what's going on?! The train has turned into flesh!"

"That demon has already fused his main body with this train,"

Yamada instructed, "Rengoku, you and these three brats are responsible for protecting the rear cars. Hack away all those flesh lumps trying to devour the passengers. I don't have the spare time to care about their survival."

"Leave it to me! Even if I have to stake my life, I will never let a single passenger on this train die!" Kyojuro promised solemnly and loudly.

"Tanjiro! Zenitsu! Boar-head boy! Let's go!"

Watching Kyojuro rush toward the rear cars with the three brats in a flurry, Yamada finally turned around and looked toward the direction the train was heading—the locomotive.

"Since the neck has become the entire train, then just completely dismantling this scrap metal will do."

Yamada gripped the hilt at his waist with one hand and strode toward the locomotive.

"Don't think you're getting past!"

From both sides of the car, countless extremely thick, eyeball-covered disgusting flesh tentacles surged out frantically, sweeping toward Yamada in an overwhelming wave.

Although Enmu's spirit was damaged, his survival instinct still drove him to launch a frantic counterattack.

"Begone."

Yamada didn't even draw his sword, simply spitting out a word with extreme indifference.

Boom!

Extremely violent lightning-attribute Chakra instantly erupted with Yamada as the center.

Lightning Release: Chidori Current!

This time, it was no longer the weak current used to wake people up but a high-voltage lightning net as if a thunder god had descended.

Zzzzt!

Those disgusting flesh tentacles that tried to get within two meters of Yamada were instantly vaporized by the terrifying high temperature the moment they touched the lightning net. Before they could even scream, they turned into charred ash fluttering in the air.

Yamada strolled through the long aisle as if taking a leisurely walk, surrounded by lightning that seemed almost tangible. Any flesh and blood that dared to block his path was crushed into cinders.

This drove Enmu, hidden in the locomotive, into complete despair.

"Monster... this guy is simply a monster! Even the Upper Moons don't have this kind of terrifying destructive power!"

Enmu roared frantically, concentrating all the train's energy into the locomotive.

With a loud "boom," the iron door leading to the locomotive was brutally kicked flying by Yamada.

Inside the narrow locomotive cab, it had completely turned into a giant nest of flesh and blood.

In the center of the nest, an extremely large cervical vertebrae was faintly visible. That was Enmu's fused core body.

"Don't come over! You can't kill me! My neck is as thick as the whole train, your thin sword can't possibly cut through it!" Enmu let out a roar of despair, countless thick tentacles tightly protecting that cervical vertebrae.

"Is that so?"

Yamada looked at that giant tumor, a mocking curve curling at the corner of his lips.

The Kusanagi Sword, entwined with purple lightning patterns, finally left its scabbard completely.

At the same time, the Chakra within Yamada's body exploded.

"Who told you that killing demons must be done by hacking?"

Yamada raised the Kusanagi Sword with one hand, and frantic lightning instantly gathered and elongated on the blade.

Lightning Release: Chidori Sharp Spear!

Chiii—

A long spear over ten meters long, condensed from extremely high-density pure lightning, instantly surged out from the tip of the Kusanagi Sword.

This lightning spear was not only sharp to the extreme but also contained terrifyingly destructive high temperatures.

"Die, trash."

Yamada swung his wrist casually.

Swoosh!

That ten-meter-long lightning spear swept across smoothly.

Not only the thick tentacles protecting the front, but even that giant cervical vertebrae, and even the entire locomotive made of steel, were instantly split in two from the middle under this strike.

Boom!!!

Accompanied by a deafening explosion, the locomotive bisected by lightning instantly turned into a giant fireball.

Violent Lightning Chakra surged frantically into Enmu's body along the cut, electrocuting all his cells into completely dead charcoal.

"No... Muzan-sama... save..."

Enmu couldn't even finish his last words before his entire massive flesh body completely disintegrated in the lightning and flames, turning into ash flying through the air.
