Butterfly Kanae quickly walked through the alley with Nobuhiko in her arms, and came to a dead end of an alley with no one around.
The Butterfly Ninja grabbed Masaki and quickly chased after him.
"Sister, didn't you say you were looking for Miss Zhuyo? This is..." Butterfly Ninja looked at the wall in front of him with a strange expression. This place was clearly a dead end.
However, Butterfly Kanae did not answer her sister's question. Instead, she took out a letter from her chest and said to the wall:
"Ms. Tamashii, I am Kanae, the butterfly of the Demon Slayer Corps, and I am here to deliver a message on the order of my lord.
We met a young man on the way who was attacked by a ghost. He was seriously injured trying to protect his sister. We would like to borrow your medicine to treat him. "
After Butterfly Kanae finished speaking, she stood there, staring at the wall.
After a while, a water-like texture appeared on the wall in front of him.
A young man walked through the wall and came out. He looked about sixteen or seventeen years old. He had short indigo hair. He was wearing a white upper and black suit with a gray shirt underneath. His expression looked very... Seriously, when he saw Butterfly Kanae and others, he frowned and seemed a little unhappy.
It was Tamashi's assistant Yushiro.
"It's a ghost!" The Butterfly Ninja was shocked when he saw Yushiro appear, and pulled out his Nichirin Sword and blocked it in front of Kanae.
"Shinobu, don't do this." Kanae quickly advised.
Under her sister's authority, Butterfly sheathed her sword and retreated. After careful sensing, she finally came to her senses.
Yushiro's body did not have the disgusting rancid smell of cannibal ghosts, and the smell of blood was almost undetectable, indicating that he had never eaten people, but how could a non-cannibal ghost survive?
Looking back, it was the lord who asked his sister to deliver the letter, so he obviously knew about the ghost living here.
Butterfly Ninja quickly suppressed the doubts in her heart. She just saw a ghost when she took action, and subconsciously protected her sister.
"Sorry, I apologize to you on behalf of Ren." Kanae showed an apologetic smile.
"Come in, and leave immediately after delivering the letter and curing the injured. Humans are not welcome here!" Yushiro said with a straight face, looking like he really disliked these people, but he still took it from Kanahu's arms. He passed Nobuhiko and walked towards the wall.
Kanae, Shinobu, and Masaki also followed.
Passing through the wall, the perspective in front of me suddenly widened.
The three of them came to an empty courtyard with cherry blossom trees planted in it. There was a Western-style two-story villa directly in front. There was a note with a red texture on it directly above the door. The Butterfly Ninja felt it from above. The breath of vampire magic.
Yushiro stopped when he reached the door, suddenly turned around, and said extremely seriously: "Listen, you can treat me whatever you want, I don't care, but you must not be rude to that adult!"
His eyes mainly fell on the Butterfly Ninja.
Kanae nodded solemnly and gave the butterfly ninja a look.
Butterfly Ninja also nodded. She was not an impulsive person. She just drew the sword because she was concerned about her sister's safety.
There is the aura of another ghost in the house, probably Miss Zhushi.
Yushiro led the three of them to the second floor, handed Nobuhiko to Kanae, and then knocked on the door respectfully.
"Please come in." A gentle female voice came from the room.
"I'm back, Lord Tamashi." Yushirou pushed open the door and entered.
"Welcome back."
The speaker was a beautiful woman with long black hair, parted in the middle and combed into a large, low bun, which was held in place by a flower hairpin. Wearing a purple kimono and a white doctor's uniform.
He looks like he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and his eyes are gentle and quiet, like light pink mist. The red lips contrasted sharply with the pale face. The whole person looks dignified, elegant, and generous.
"Ms. Tamashii." Kanae put Nobuhiko on the hospital bed.
"His injuries are serious!"
After Zhushi checked for a moment, he frowned slightly and looked at Yushiro beside him.
"Yoshiro."
Just giving Yushiro a look, the tacit understanding of getting along for many years made him react and go to the side to prepare the medicine.
"Miss Tamashii, our father is also a pharmacist, let's help together." Kanae said softly.
"Okay, I'm sorry to bother you." Zhu Shi nodded.
Later, Tamashi treated Nobuhiko, while Yushiro, Kanae, and Shinobu assisted him. Masaki stood aside at a loss, not daring to express his anger.
"We are out of danger for the time being." Zhu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and then sighed: "His lungs were seriously injured. Even if he recovers, I'm afraid he won't be able to be a swordsman."
"How could this happen?" Kanae's expression changed. She rushed to support him only after seeing Nobuhiko's Fire and Thunder God Sword Skill.
In particular, Nobuhiko was able to fight one against three without the Nichirin Sword, and one of them was one of the twelve demons in the last quarter of the moon.
It is a huge loss for the Demon Slayer Corps that such a genius cannot become a swordsman.
"I can only try my best to help him with treatment." Zhu Shi apologized. Although she is a ghost, she is a sworn enemy of the ghost king Muzan. The goal of the Demon Slayer Team is to eliminate Muzan.
The physique of the young man in front of him is far beyond that of ordinary people, and he has obviously practiced breathing techniques.
"It's all my fault! If my brother hadn't fought tooth and nail to protect me, he would definitely not have been injured!" Zhen Shang on the side received the news, his face full of self-blame.
Kanae was about to comfort her, but she heard a pop, and Masaki also fainted.
The Butterfly Ninja on the side hurriedly stepped forward and supported Maoshan. He was relieved when he found that she was just overtired and had a heavy heart, so she temporarily fainted.
After settling in, Tamashi asked Kanae about the purpose of sending her to the Demon Slayer Corps leader, Uyashiki Yōya.
Since Zhu Shi was being chased by the Demon King Muzan, and he was a ghost himself, although the goals of the Demon Slayer Corps were the same, in order to avoid the misunderstanding of those swordsmen who joined the Demon Slayer Corps because their families were killed, this secret could only be kept until The family of Yashiki Yōya, the main product, knew about it.
Even the contemporary pillars are known to only a few people.
Because for hundreds of years, the Demon Slayer Corps has always been at a disadvantage when facing the Demon King Muzan.
Humans have a limited lifespan, but ghosts can easily live for more than a hundred years. As the number of cannibals increases, they can live longer and become stronger.
Under the circumstances, there are more and more ghosts, and they are getting stronger and stronger.
A large number of Demon Slayer members will be eaten in every generation, and even pillars are not spared.
Therefore, Ubuyashiki Yōya must unite all forces to deal with Muzan.
Because Butterfly Kanae is kind-hearted and hopes that humans and ghosts can live in peace and has no prejudice against ghosts, Ubuya Shiki Yōya sent her to deliver a letter to Tamashi and told her the inside story.
Zhuyo took the letter from Kanae and read it, then destroyed the letter, smiled at Kanae and said, "Sorry to trouble you."
"Miss Tamashii, we want to wait until this boy recovers from his injuries before taking him back to the Demon Slayer Squad, so we need to stay with you for a while, sorry for bothering you." Kanae said.
"Of course." Zhu Shi nodded.
On the other hand, Yushiro looked unhappy.
He was not happy that these ugly women were allowed to stay.
In his opinion, except Lord Zhushi, all other women are ugly, and he just wants to stay with Lord Zhushi.
"Yoshiro, you can't be rude, go and clean up the rooms of Kanae and Miss Shinobu." Tamashi said seriously.
"Yes!" Seeing Zhu Shi speak, Yushirou immediately obeyed.
...
Butterfly Ninja lived in the same room as her sister Kanae. Before going to bed, she finally couldn't help but ask:
"Sister, didn't you hear Miss Tamashii say that the boy named Nobuhiko can no longer be a swordsman? Why did you bring him back to the Demon Slayer Squad?"
Kanae's expression suddenly became serious and she replied: "If I read it correctly, that boy used the Thunder Breathing Technique.
I have seen the former Lord Mingzhu take action. This young man gave me the feeling that his strength is not inferior to that of Lord Mingzhu.
If he had the Nichirin Sword, he should be able to easily kill the 1st demon he encountered today! "
"If he had the strength of a pillar, why didn't he join the Demon Slayer Corps?" The Butterfly Ninja's eyes also became serious. After all, she knew very well what an additional pillar-level swordsman meant to the Demon Slayer Corps.
This young man named Nobuhiko was able to withstand the siege of three ghosts without the Nichirin Sword. She absolutely couldn't do it, and I'm afraid her sister couldn't either.
Especially his behavior of fighting to the death to protect his sister also made Butterfly Ninja have some affection for him.
If it was for her sister, she would be willing to give her life.
"I don't know. Maybe he acquired the breathing technique by accident. I have never seen the sword skills he used tonight. I'll ask him again when he wakes up." Kanae thought.
"Yeah." Butterfly Ninja nodded.
"Shinobu, do you want to sleep with your sister?" Kanae took off her clothes to prepare for bed, and suddenly looked at her sister Shinobu with a smile.
Butterfly Ninja frowned with a heroic brow and couldn't help but said angrily: "Sister, I am no longer a child!"
"Ah, ah, what a pity." Kanae smiled and lay down.
But she soon felt another petite body slipping into the bed.
"Shinobu, how can you get married in the future like this!" Kanae teased her sister.
"I don't want to get married! I want to be with my sister forever." Butterfly Ninja whispered in a very firm tone.
Recently, the number of outings on missions has increased, and the dangers have become higher and higher.
Her sister always rushes forward to protect her, and she is afraid that her sister will get hurt.
Especially today's scene where Nobuhiko was seriously injured in order to protect his sister Masaki, Butterfly Ren was deeply touched.
After her parents were killed by evil spirits, her sister was her only spiritual support.
"Then what will Shinobu do if my sister gets married?" Sensing her sister's uneasiness, Kanae turned around and held her sister tightly in her arms, stroking her head gently.
If she died while hunting ghosts, she just hoped that her sister would stop being a swordsman, find a good family to marry, and live to the age where her hair would be completely white.
It's just that she naturally couldn't say such words. Her sister looked strong, but she was actually very fragile inside, so when Kanae's words came to her lips, she turned into a joke.
"Then...then I also want to be with my sister!" Butterfly Ninja said firmly.
"Okay." Kanae responded, without saying anything more, she just hugged her sister tighter.
After a while, Kanae was about to fall asleep when she suddenly felt her sister struggling in her arms, and then she broke free, panting heavily.
Kanae looked down, reacted, and smiled sheepishly.
...
Early the next morning.
Nobuhiko woke up from his slumber.
The wound on the left chest was still very painful, but a real cooling sensation came from the wound, which relieved the pain a little.
"You're awake, how do you feel?"
Hearing the voice in his ear, Nobuhiko turned his head slightly and looked towards the bed.
I saw a petite girl, who looked to be at most 1.5 meters tall, standing next to the bed. She had short black hair with purple tips. She wore a mint-colored butterfly hairpin with dark purple edges. Her beautiful big eyes were deep. Purple, her brows were raised, and her expression was a little serious. Wearing a black slim-fitting uniform, although he is short, his body proportions are very good.
What a heroic girl!
Butterfly Ninja.
Nobuhiko reacted quickly.
The current timeline is before the butterfly ninja's barrier butterfly Kanae died, so the butterfly ninja has not changed from a tsundere girl to a yandere.
It was their sisters who saved themselves.
"Is he awake?" Hearing the noise, Kanae, who was preparing potions at the side, came to the bed.
"Thank you for saving me." Looking at the decoration of the room, he vaguely heard Kanae say that he was looking for Tamashi before he fell into coma last night. This should be the place.
"You must be hungry, Shinobu, go prepare some food." Kanae told the butterfly Shinobi beside her.
The Butterfly Ninja nodded and went to prepare food.
Kanae, on the other hand, found Tamashi.
Tamashi and Yushirou came to the room together.
Seeing Tsumuyo lift the quilt and inspect Nobuhiko's exposed upper body wounds, Yushiro gritted his teeth with a look of jealousy, as if he wanted to strangle Nobuhiko to death.
Nobuhiko looked calm and had no distracting thoughts in his mind.
Because he is sensing the condition of his body.
As a ninja with a very high level of medical ninjutsu, this injury was a bit tricky.
Although he escaped fatal heart injuries, his lungs were penetrated and two of his ribs were broken.
An average person would definitely die.
Because he completed [Complete Concentration·Changzhong], his physique has been greatly enhanced, and he is also protected by chakra.
If this were his true form, he could directly enter the immortal mode, and then use the immortal technique Yang Release Chakra to treat him, and he would be able to recover in a short time.
However, his current body has only been integrated with the [Chakra Soul Seed] for four months, and the chakra is not strong enough, and has not reached the basic amount for practicing the sage mode.
And he still doesn't know if magic can be used in this world.
In his current state, he probably wouldn't be able to refine chakra. He would have to lie in bed for at least a few months relying on the naturally recovered chakra.
Considering that his luck value is only -5, Nobuhiko doesn't want to gamble on luck and must become stronger as soon as possible.
"There is no danger anymore, but it will take half a year of rest to fully recover. Your physique is very good, and you woke up several days earlier than I expected."
Tamashi's conclusion took a little longer than Nobuhiko expected. After all, she didn't know that Nobuhiko had chakra.
He was injured by the ghost's weapon, and he was very lucky to survive. He woke up the next day, and Jushi was also surprised.
"Then after he recovers..." Kanae couldn't help but ask.
"Even if he recovers, he can no longer be a swordsman. His left lung has residual power from the Vampire Technique, which cannot be completely eradicated. It is difficult to use the breathing method again." Zhu Shi sighed.
Hearing this, Kanae couldn't help but feel worried. As a swordsman, especially one with such strength at a young age, it would definitely be very uncomfortable if she could no longer hold the sword.
Thinking of this, she changed the subject and asked what happened to Nobuhiko.
Nobuhiko was also shocked when he heard Tamashi's conclusion.
After examining the body with chakra, it was found that there was indeed residual alien power in the lung lobes.
But since the sealing technique used by Chakra can be effective against ghosts, there must be a way to solve it after recovery.
Thinking of this, he immediately thought of a way.
Nobuhiko told the process truthfully, but he clarified the origin of his breathing method a little bit.
When Kanae heard Nobuhiko's answer, she was surprised and said: "You mean, your breathing method and sword skills were passed down from your ancestors?"
She had never heard of the surname Kitahara in a family of ghost hunters, especially when Nobuhiko said that the Thunder Breathing Technique and the seventh type of sword skill, Fire Thunder God, were a little confused. Aren't there only six types of Thunder Sword Techniques? ?
Seeing Kanae's question, Nobuhiko felt convinced and immediately explained: "My father also told me about this breathing method and sword skills before he died, saying that they were passed down from previous generations of our Kitahara family.
He never believed in the existence of evil ghosts in the world, so he never practiced cultivation. Before he died, he told me that he was just following the rules of his ancestors and continuing to pass them on. "
"You mean it's only been four months since you started practicing the breathing method?!" Kanae suddenly discovered the point and asked with a surprised look on her face.
The butterfly ninja on the side also looked in disbelief.
It took her sister several years to practice the Flower Breath derived from the Water Breathing Technique and become a 'Flower Pillar'. This speed is considered very good among the Demon Slayer Corps.
Thunder breathing method is still the most difficult to practice among the five basic breathing methods.
And it only took Nobuhiko four months to practice to great success?
What an exaggerated talent!
It's a pity that they arrived too late, otherwise the Lei Zhu of this generation would have to be Nobuhiko.
For a moment, both sisters felt a little sorry.
"Yes." Nobuhiko nodded calmly. He felt that the reaction of the two sisters was normal. After all, it was a talent that he spent a lot of potential points to redeem, and with the assistance of chakra, how could he stretch his crotch.
"Before he died, my father also said that the original surname of our Kitahara family was 'Jiguo'.
It is a branch of the Jiguo clan during the Warring States Period. However, it has been hunted by an unknown force in recent years, so it remains anonymous.
I heard that there were two sets of breathing methods passed down from our ancestors' time, but my father died before he could finish explaining the other set of breathing methods.
Later, I searched for a long time at home, but could not find another set of breathing methods he mentioned. "
Nobuhiko continued, anyway, when the original father was seriously injured, Masaki was not around, so he was alone, so he could make up whatever he wanted.
He is naturally a staunch demon slayer, and increasing his strength is also a good thing for the Demon Slayer Squad. Now this is a white lie.
Thinking of this, Nobuhiko's expression became more natural.
"Jiguo!"
"Sun Breathing Technique!"
Tamashii and Kanae exclaimed at the same time and couldn't help but look at each other.
Both of them thought of the legendary user of the Ancestral Breathing Technique Sun Breath, Jiguo Enichi, who drove the Ghost King Wu Pai to a dead end, so that he did not dare to show up when Jiguo Enichi was alive.
In particular, Nobuhiko said that his family was a branch of the Jigoku clan during the Warring States Period, and he was obviously the same clan as Jikoku.
As for being hunted incognito, that's normal.
Because since the death of Ji Guoyuan, the ghost king Wuhan began to look for the descendants of Ji Guo's clan and the inheritance of the Sun Breathing Technique. He would rather kill ten thousand by mistake than let one go.
According to the Demon Slayer Intelligence Network, there are almost no families named Jiguo in the entire country.
It would have been a great joy to have found the successor of the Sun Breathing Technique, and his talent was so powerful, but it was such a pity that he was injured and could no longer be a swordsman!
Feeling the surprise of the two, Nobuhiko continued to answer their questions, then suddenly looked at Tamashi and said:
"Miss Zhushi, please forgive me, I feel a different aura in you. Are you also a ghost?"
"Yes." Zhu Shi was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"What do you mean? Tamashi-sama is different from those guys!" Yushiro said excitedly, thinking that Nobuhiko was going to say something rude.
"Yoshiro, don't interrupt!" Zhuyo frowned and raised her voice slightly, because she felt that what Nobuhiko was about to say was very important.
"Yes." Yushiro retreated unwillingly.
Nobuhiko didn't pay attention. After reading the original work, he knew that Yushiro was also a good person, but his appearance was a little colder. He then asked: "Although you are also a ghost, you are not controlled by Mukai. At the same time, you can maintain life without eating people. How can you stay alive?" Do you have the powerful physique and self-healing ability of a ghost?"
"Yes." Zhu Shi responded, gradually showing a surprised look, because she vaguely guessed what Nobuhiko was going to say next.
"Then, if you can! Please turn me into a ghost!" Nobuhiko struggled to sit up and said with a sincere expression: "I want to pick up the sword again to protect my family and at the same time take revenge on Wuhan!"
"This..." Although he had already guessed it, Zhu Shi was still shocked when he heard Nobuhiko's sincere words.
"As you said, any injury has corresponding medicines and treatments, and ghost transformation is actually a physical change.
As long as I do some research and find the right method, I will be able to turn back into a human sooner or later.
Even if I can't change back, as long as I still retain my humanity, I will still be human!
And I don’t think becoming a ghost is an unfortunate thing. What’s unfortunate is that ghosts who become ghosts lose their humanity! "
Nobuhiko said firmly.
Kanahu and the Butterfly Ninja sisters were moved by Nobuhiko's words.
Zhu Shi's eyes flickered.
For a time, Zhu Shi couldn't find a reason to reject Nobuhiko.
But she still hesitated.
Because Nobuhiko is too strong, it will be a disaster if he cannot resist the temptation of human blood after becoming a ghost.
However, Nobuhiko is a descendant of the Jiguo clan and has a firm belief in protecting his family, which makes her very hesitant.
I feel like I shouldn’t doubt it.
Because before, in order to save the terminally ill Yushiro, I had asked him for his opinion and asked him if he was willing to become a ghost.
Now that Nobuhiko has such a firm belief and actively requests to become a ghost in order to destroy ghosts, she seems to have no reason to refuse.
"Miss Kanae, Miss Shinobu, if I become a ghost, can I also join the Demon Slayer Squad?" Nobuhiko looked at the two sisters aside.
Kanae was stunned when she heard this. Although she wanted to coexist peacefully with ghosts, most of the Demon Slayer Team probably couldn't do it, but she believed that the Lord would definitely understand.
"I will send a message to the lord, he should agree!" Kanae replied.
"If it doesn't work, it doesn't matter. I just hope you can get a Nichirin Sword. As for my sister, I will leave it to you to take care of. The Thunder Breathing Technique is not suitable for her. I hope you can help her find a good teacher." ." Nobuhiko continued.
"We can promise you this, and I will definitely do it!" Kanae's voice was still gentle, but her tone was very firm.
The Demon Slayer Corps is willing to unite all forces, because many of us have been persecuted by ghosts and lost our homes. The addition of new members is like adding another family member to the big family.
"Thank you." Nobuhiko said with a smile, and then looked at Tamashi, "Please!"
Anyway, his ultimate goal is to score points. Since he is in the Demon Slayer camp, he naturally wants to become stronger as soon as possible and kill Muzan.
Months of training had a great impact on his strength. Transforming into a ghost was the fastest way to reduce the recovery time of his body.
As for refraining from cannibalism, Nobuhiko believed in his own will and could definitely do it.
What's more, turning into a ghost through Zhushi is different from Muzan. It only requires a small amount of blood.
Of course Nobuhiko can accept not cannibalism but blood transfusion, because modern medicine requires blood transfusion from other people if he loses too much blood. The two are similar.
"Okay! I promise you, but I need time to prepare." Zhu Shi finally made up his mind, this may be a turning point.
