After staying in Asakusa for ten days, Iwabashira, Flamebashira, and Soundbashira still found no trace of the winding string, so they returned to the Demon Slayer Headquarters.
Nobuhiko still lives in Butterfly House and practices swordsmanship with Kanae every day.
To Nobuhiko, Kanae taught him her flower breathing technique.
Whether it was Nobuhiko's talent that was too strong or the difficulty of practicing the Flower Breathing Technique, it only took Nobuhiko twenty days to learn the Flower Breathing Technique and at the same time master all the sword skills taught by Kanae.
In this regard, Kanae also went to Ubuyashiki Yoshiya to explain the situation to him.
A genius like Nobuhiko might be able to reach the level of [Rock Pillar] in the future.
As for Nobuhiko, he wanted to see if there were other breathing methods that were equally suitable for him besides the Thunder Breathing Method.
Now we don’t know where Tanjiro lives, so there is no way to obtain the Sun Breathing Technique. Other breathing techniques are also very valuable to learn.
...
In the evening, in the backyard of Butterfly House, after Nobuhiko and Kanae finished practicing their sword skills, they sat on the porch and drank tea.
It has been a month and a half since I arrived at the Demon Slayer Headquarters.
As time goes by and chakra increases, Nobuhiko becomes more and more resistant to sunlight.
It is now fully possible to carry out activities during the day.
Of course, he is still a little uncomfortable with the hours when the sun is strongest in the afternoon, so he likes to do activities in the morning and evening.
He usually eats normal human food, but with an extra dish called 'Xuewang'.
Not to mention Nobuhiko, even the Butterfly Sisters and other members of the Butterfly House also like to eat blood.
The butterfly sisters subconsciously forgot that Nobuhiko was half-ghost.
After all, he is exactly like a normal human being.
Nobuhiko has never used human blood since he came to the Demon Slayer Corps.
"Miss Kanae, I wonder which pillar in the team is the strongest? Where do they live?"
Nobuhiko asked suddenly.
He naturally knows that Rock Pillar is the strongest, but the subsequent ranking is still open to discussion.
Most importantly, Nobuhiko discovered that the Demon Slayer headquarters was too big.
I have been in the Demon Slayer Corps for more than ten days and I have never seen any other pillars.
If you want to adapt to the fighting style of swordsmen as quickly as possible, you must either fight ghosts or fight with the strongest group of swordsmen.
After every all-out battle, when refining chakra, it is always faster than usual. This is the same in the world of Naruto.
Fighting is the fastest way to increase your strength.
Hearing Nobuhiko's question, Kanae smiled and said: "Nobuhiko, are you ready to challenge other pillars?
The Demon Slayer Squad does not allow internal fighting. This is a serious violation of team rules and will be punished. "
"Then it's not against the rules to ask the pillars to give me some pointers, right?" Nobuhiko asked.
Kanae was stunned for a moment and said: "There is really nothing I can do against you.
Among the current pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps, the strongest is [Iwazhu] Mr. Mingyuyu.
He was the one who saved Shinobu and me from the hands of ghosts.
Although they have never played against each other directly, everyone trusts and respects him.
Mr. Wei Mingyu has killed several low-level ghosts, and more than a hundred ordinary ghosts. "
Kanae, who understood Nobuhiko's strength, did not explain the A and B-level swordsmen to Nobuhiko, but started directly from the pillar-level swordsmen.
"Mr. Bei Mingyu has been staying by the waterfall in the back mountain. He rarely appears when there is no mission. If you want to find him, I can explain the situation to him first."
"Thank you, Ms. Kanae."
"Don't be so polite, just call me by my name."
"Yes, Kanae."
"Except for Mr. Mingmingyu, Mr. [Pillar of Flame] Mr. Purgatory, [Pillar of Wind] Mr. Immortal River, and Mr. [Pillar of Water] Tomioka are stronger." Kanae continued to explain:
"Mr. Purgatory lives in the Purgatory family's clan in the west.
He has a cheerful personality and is a very enthusiastic and helpful person.
If you are looking for him, just go and visit him directly.
As for the last two, forget it...
Mr. Fusukawa has a bad temper and is not easy to talk to.
If you go to him, it may be considered a provocation, and he will not show mercy. "
From the meaning of Kanae's words, it shows that he believes that the strength of Immortal Kawa Saneya is superior to Nobuhiko.
"I understand." Nobuhiko nodded.
Taken together, you can first go to the [Flame Pillar] Purgatory Anjuro who is the most talkative.
In Nobuhiko's opinion, his strength should be slightly stronger than [Wind Pillar] and [Water Pillar].
It's just that Purgatory Xingjulang died relatively early, and he died in the hands of Yiwozuo on the third string before the final battle.
But that's because he expended a lot of energy in order to save the hostages held hostage by Shangxian 1 before he faced Yiwozuo.
A whole train of passengers suffered almost no casualties because of the presence of Purgatory Anjuro.
Under the premise of consuming a lot of physical strength, Purgatory Xingshoulang fought against Yiwozuo who was in good condition. The fight lasted from dusk to dawn, and finally forced Yiwozuo to cut off his arms and escape to avoid being exposed to the sun.
But now the plot has changed a lot. The first one has been killed by Nobuhiko and Kanae.
"What about Mr. [Water Pillar] Tomioka?" Nobuhiko asked next.
In his opinion, Tomioka Yoshiyuki is also a very talkative person.
In the original work, after seeing Nezuko, who was a ghost, taking the initiative to protect Tanjiro, he gave up killing Nezuko and wrote a letter recommending Tanjiro to Nintaki Sakonji.
If Tanjiro had met other pillars at the beginning, the story would have ended immediately.
"Mr. Tomioka...he is a little unreasonable. Except for the master, he basically doesn't talk to us, so his relationship with everyone is relatively poor." Kanae explained, "If you go to him, you may Ignored.”
"..." Nobuhiko was stunned for a moment.
He remembered Tomioka Giyu's term because his senior brother Qio Usagi killed almost all the ghosts in Fujisei Mountain by one person. In the end, he was killed by the hand ghost due to excessive wear of the Nichirin sword and lack of physical strength.
And Tomioka Giyu, who fainted at the beginning, won directly like the others, and only Qiu Usagi died in that session.
Therefore, Tomioka Giyuu believed that he was not worthy of becoming a swordsman.
Although he later became stronger and stronger and became a water pillar, he still believed that he was not worthy.
However, this guy's naturally stupid character makes it normal for him to be misunderstood, and he himself doesn't seem to have the consciousness of being disliked.
"Nobuhiko, why are you laughing?" Kanae looked at Nobuhiko who was smiling and asked in confusion.
Nobuhiko shook his head, "Nothing, I thought of something interesting."
"What's something interesting?" Kanae also became interested.
At this moment, Butterfly Ninja quickly came to the backyard, "Sister, a swordsman is injured, come and help!"
When Kanae heard this, her face became serious, "It seems I can only hear about interesting things next time."
With that said, she took the first step towards the outside.
Butterfly Ninja stared at Nobuhiko suspiciously and followed him out.
Seeing this situation, Nobuhiko also walked outside, and he felt a very powerful aura.
"As chakra grows, my perception gradually recovers."
Nobuhiko's heart moved. After becoming a half-ghost, he did not obtain the vampire technique. Now it seems that it should be due to chakra.
His eyes gradually changed from pure white to light blue, which was a sign of opening the eyes of purity.
His dynamic vision has improved a lot during this period, otherwise he would not be able to easily defeat Kanae.
Because he sees things slower and slower.
When Nobuhiko walked to the front yard, he saw a white-haired boy standing in the yard with a violent expression. He had a white hedgehog hair, three long scars on his face, and a white feather with the word 'kill' embroidered on it. , the team uniform was open, revealing the strong muscles on his chest, which were also covered with scars.
Wind Pillar, Immortal Kawa Saneya!
Seeing the team members being carried in, Immortal Sakawa Shimi was extremely anxious.
Facing the butterfly flying towards him and about to land on his shoulder, he waved his arms very roughly to drive the butterfly away.
The butterfly ninja on the side frowned, but in order to treat the wounded, she didn't say anything.
"Huh?! Who are you?" Seeing Nobuhiko appear, Immortal Sakawa Saneya frowned, and he felt a strange aura on Nobuhiko's body.
Nobuhiko does not have a Demon Slayer uniform, but he wears a Nichirin sword on his waist.
"I am Miss Kanae's 'stepson', and my name is Nobuhiko Kitahara. First time we meet, hello, Mr. Fusukawa." Nobuhiko smiled slightly.
"Step-son?" Immortal Kawa Saneya was stunned for a moment.
Seeing that Nobuhiko's fair and handsome cheeks were spotless and without any wounds, he also noticed that Nobuhiko's palms were also as white as jade and looked like they had not been exercised at all, and he couldn't help but feel a little contemptuous.
If the lack of injuries on the body is due to his superb strength, then if there is no trace of exercise on his palms, it means he has not practiced hard enough.
"The aura on your body makes me feel very uncomfortable. If I must say it, it looks like a ghost!"
Immortal Sekawa Saneya's face instantly turned cold. If Nobuhiko was not Kanae's stepson, he would check it out.
The smile on Nobuhiko's face gradually faded, "Mr. Fusukawa, it's a bit rude of you to speak like this."
As he spoke, Nobuhiko suddenly took a step forward and moved the tip of his nose slightly, as if he was sniffing something.
As soon as he got close to Immortal Kawa Saneya, he felt a throbbing coming from the depths of his blood.
Immortal Kawa Saneya has thin blood!
And it is the rarest kind among thin blood.
Even though he wasn't bleeding now, Nobuhiko felt intoxicated.
However, he can completely restrain this level of physiological instinct.
Now chakra can completely hide the ghost's aura. Unless Tanjiro has a nose that is sharper than a dog, it is impossible for ordinary people to detect the abnormality.
The fleeting expression on Nobuhiko's face made Immortal Sakawa Saneya wary. Nobuhiko looked at him in a strange way just now.
"You...could it be you!" Immortal Sikawa Shiya suddenly thought of an astonishing possibility.
However, Nobuhiko suddenly spoke at this time: "Mr. Fusugawa, how long have you not taken a bath! You're already sour!"
Immortal Kawa Saneya was stunned when he heard this.
The members of the Butterfly House who were carrying the injured around were also shocked.
Is this guy crazy?
How dare you provoke [Wind Pillar]
Immortal Mikawa Miya is also famous for his violent temper among the Demon Slayer Corps.
Although he would not cause trouble for his teammates for no reason, no one was willing to touch his brow.
"You guy!" Immortal Sakawa Saneya was furious. He had just experienced a battle not long ago. Although no one in the team members he led was killed, many of them were seriously injured. He himself was very irritable. Now after Nobuhiko's provocation, It exploded directly.
He stretched out his hand to grab Nobuhiko's collar, wanting to teach him a lesson.
Nobuhiko took half a step back and avoided the catch of Immortal Kawa Saneya.
The reason why he said this was, on the one hand, to cover up the flaw that had just been exposed, and on the other hand, since he happened to meet him, he would try the power of Immortal Kawa Saneya's wind sword skill.
"It seems that I underestimated you!" Immortal Kawa Saneya's eyes were filled with red bloodshot eyes, and he was obviously very excited.
With that said, he rushed directly towards Nobuhiko.
"Mr. Fusukawa, please don't be impulsive." At this time, the Butterfly Ninja who came out to arrange for the wounded couldn't help shouting when he saw Fusukawa Saneya taking action against Nobuhiko.
Immortal Kawa Saneya made a move.
Butterfly Ninja continued: "We are still treating the wounded here! Please be quiet."
Hearing this, Immortal Kawa Saneya glared at Nobuhiko fiercely.
“I’ve always heard that Lord Fengzhu is very powerful, so I just want to learn about it today, and I wonder if Mr. Immortal Sichuan can give him a chance.
We can find a place where there are no people, no one will disturb us, no one will see us. "Nobuhiko immediately got angry when he saw that Immortal Kawa Saneya was leaving.
For people like Immortal Kawa Saneya, there is no use in trying to please him with gentle words. All he needs to do is prove his value to the Demon Slayer Corps with his strength.
"Hmph!" Immortal Kawa Saneya snorted coldly. The team member happened to be injured, and he was furious. Nobuhiko insisted on hitting the gun. As a senior, he would naturally not be polite and must beat him severely.
"I admire your courage, come with me!" Immortal Sekawa Saneya said coldly, and turned around to leave the front yard.
When Butterfly Ninja saw this, she frowned. She came out to rescue her just now, but she didn't expect that Nobuhiko didn't appreciate it at all. It would be better to let Feng Zhu teach Nobuhiko a lesson.
In her opinion, although Nobuhiko's talent is very strong and his current strength is not even inferior to his sister's, he will definitely not be able to please the powerful Immortal Kawa Saneya.
In fact, Nobuhiko is not sure of defeating the immortal Kawa Saneya.
After all, the other party has been a wind pillar for several years and is a genius swordsman in his own right.
But who will win and who loses will not be known until the fight begins.
Nobuhiko followed Shimiya Immortal to an empty grassland by the lake.
Immortal Sakawa Saneya stared at Nobuhiko with a gloomy expression, and suddenly said: "Since you have the courage to challenge me, you must make an agreement in advance. After you lose, you will not complain to the Lord, saying that I violated the team rules!"
Nobuhiko was stunned when he heard this, but he smiled secretly in his heart. It seemed that Immortal Kawa Saneya was also afraid.
In other words, he really respects Ubuyashiki Yoshiya and is afraid that Nobuhiko will accuse him.
"What? If you don't dare, leave as soon as possible!" Immortal Sekawa Saneya said coldly, holding the Nichirin Sword in his hand.
"Come on, please give me some advice." Nobuhiko drew out the Nichirin sword and pointed the tip of the sword diagonally at Immortal Kawa Saneya.
"Green sword, you also practice the wind breathing method?" Looking at the Nichirin sword with the same green blade as his own in Nobuhiko's hand, Immortal Kawa Saneya was slightly startled.
As Nobuhiko's breathing rhythm changed, the contempt in Immortal Kawa Saneya's eyes gradually disappeared.
Nobuhiko also mastered [Full Concentration·Constant Center], but it’s not a big deal because all pillars can [Complete Concentration·Constant Center].
Mainly because of Nobuhiko's state, he obviously practiced the Thunder Breathing Technique and had already mastered it.
"Then I'll take action first!" Nobuhiko looked solemn.
[Breath of Thunder·One type of thunderbolt flash]
laugh!
At the same time that the sound of breaking through the air rang in the ears of Immortal Kawa Saneya, a golden sword light appeared in front of him with the sound of thunder.
Clang, Clang, Clang——
After Immortal Kawa Saneya blocked Nobuhiko's thunderous first sword, he was followed by eight consecutive sword attacks from all angles.
"You are actually able to use nine consecutive strikes!" After receiving the nine consecutive sword blows, Immortal Kawa Saneya looked at his cut Haori with an incredible look in his eyes.
Even his predecessor, Mingzhu, couldn't do this.
And now Nobuhiko is still using the Nichirin Sword, which is not compatible with the breathing method.
Apparently he was a reserve member who didn't even participate in the trial.
"In this case, I won't hold back!" There was a hint of excitement in Immortal Kawa Saneya's eyes.
[Breath of the Wind·Two Type Claws·Koto Wind]
Immortal Kawa Saneya swung his sword, and four claw-shaped wind blades flew towards Nobuhiko.
[Breath of Thunder·Two Types of Rice Soul]
Nobuhiko counterattacked with the two-shaped sword skill, and counterattacked with five claw-shaped lightning.
The wind blade and the electric light collided together, producing a huge roaring sound, and then disappeared at the same time.
Seeing this, Nobuhiko was not satisfied with the power of the second type sword skill.
Immortal Sekawa Saneya frowned. Nobuhiko was able to fight him to a draw using the mismatched Nichirin sword. If he had used a matching sword, wouldn't he be at a disadvantage?
Thinking of this, Immortal Chuan Saneya did not hesitate at all.
[Breath of Wind·Seven Types of Strong Wind·Tengu Wind]
Immortal Sekawa Saneya was seen waving the Nichirin sword in his hand rapidly, and six huge tornado-shaped wind blades emerged from his body, attacking Nobuhiko from all directions.
Seeing this, Nobuhiko excitedly focused his chakra into the sword and used breathing techniques at the same time.
[Breath of Thunder·Seven Types of Fire Thunder God]
Nobuhiko waved the Nichirin Sword in his hand towards the sky.
There was a roar of thunder and lightning overhead.
Golden light filled the sky above, and the huge phenomenon attracted the attention of nearby swordsmen.
Nobuhiko was bathed in the golden light. He jumped into the air, holding the Nichirin Sword in both hands. His figure gradually disappeared into the golden thunder, and the whole person disappeared.
"Ho~!"
A golden thunder dragon composed entirely of thunder chakra and sword energy appeared above Immortal Kawa Saneya, sweeping towards the six tornadoes.
The nearly ten-meter-long Brontosaurus was swimming in the sky, and in an instant it collided with six tornado-shaped wind blades.
The flashing arc of lightning on the Thunder Dragon's body was like a sharp sword, quickly shattering the tornado into pieces and continuing to fly towards Immortal Kawa Saneya.
Seeing this, Immortal Kawa Saneya's face changed slightly, and he was about to use a special move.
At this time, a voice was suddenly heard from behind.
[Breath of Fire·Five Types of Flame Tiger]
Accompanied by a terrible heat wave, a huge tiger made of flames swooped from behind Shiya Kawasaki and hit the thunder dragon falling from the sky.
boom!
The Thunder Dragon and the Flame Tiger dissipated at the same time.
Scattered arcs and sparks left the grass in a mess.
Nobuhiko looked intently and saw a young man with long yellow and red hair, handsome sword eyebrows, and piercing eyes appearing behind Immortal Kawa Saneya, still swinging the sword in his hand.
Flame Pillar, Purgatory Xingjulang!
"Sure enough!" Nobuhiko's heart moved as he watched Purgatory Anjuro defeat his own Fire God.
It seems that Purgatory Anjuro's strength should be above him for the time being.
But when he changes to the Nichirin Sword, the power of the Fire Thunder God will be even higher.
"Purgatory, who told you to meddle in other people's business!" Immortal Kawa Saneya's face darkened.
"Internal fighting is prohibited in the Demon Slayer Squad! You have violated team rules, and of course I have to stop you!" Purgatory Anjuro looked matter-of-fact, spoke loudly, and looked full of energy.
"I'm just teaching the juniors, it's not considered internal fighting." Immortal Kawa Saneya retorted.
Purgatory Xingjuro said to himself: "You have just experienced a battle, your physical strength must be very exhausted, and your breath is very unstable. This boy is very powerful! If you continue to fight, you will definitely lose!"
Immortal Chuan Saneya's face darkened, this guy really couldn't speak at all.
After the battle just now, Immortal Sakawa Saneya already regarded Nobuhiko as an equal opponent in his heart.
Although his physical strength is very high, he has not used his special move yet, so he may not lose. However, Nobuhiko is not using the handy Nichirin Sword, so he is not in peak condition.
But Purgatory Anjuro insisted that he would lose, which made him very unhappy.
But knowing the character of Purgatory Anjuro, he was not prepared to argue anymore.
At this time, Nobuhiko suddenly said: "Mr. Fusukawa, I have benefited a lot from today's battle with you, but your current condition is not good, and I don't have the Nichirin Sword in hand. I will wait until I pass the trial to become a formal member." , I’ll ask you for advice then.”
Through the battle just now, Nobuhiko knew that he had underestimated the power of the wind sword skill, so he was a little moved.
Saying nice things now is naturally for the sake of meeting each other later.
"Huh, I'm always here for you." Immortal Kawa Saneya snorted coldly, but his complexion became much better. He sheathed his sword and turned around to leave.
Before leaving, he glared at Purgatory Anjuro.
Purgatory Xingjuro was confused, but he didn't understand, so he stopped thinking about it, smiled heartily, and said:
"Young man, your sword skills are very strong. What is your name?"
Hearing the tone and voice of Purgatory Anjuro's words, Nobuhiko only thought of one word in his mind: "Very energetic!".
Through the action just now, it seems that Purgatory Anjuro's strength is higher than Fengzhu, which makes Nobuhiko even more interested.
The five basic breathing techniques are all powerful breathing techniques. With his current talent, even if he learns them all, he is not unable to do them, and they are all valuable to learn.
The thunder breathing method is the fastest and has the strongest explosive power, but its endurance is not good; the water breathing method has super endurance but lacks explosive power.
Every breathing method has its key points and weak points.
Anyway, now that I have a super talent, I might as well learn all the powerful breathing techniques that I can learn, and maybe I can create a new breathing technique.
"My name is Kitahara Nobuhiko, and you must be Mr. Purgatory. I heard Miss Kanae mention you." Nobuhiko said with a smile.
"Are you Kanae's new 'step-son'? You're awesome!" Purgatory Anjuro said with unabashed admiration. He usually said what he had to say directly.
"Mr. Purgatory, I am very interested in the breathing method of fire. I wonder if I can ask you for advice?" Faced with someone like Purgatory Anjuro, Nobuhiko didn't need to beat around the bush and just got straight to the point.
Hearing this, Purgatory Xingjulang said without any hesitation: "Of course! But I have to go out on a mission now. When I come back, come to Purgatory's house to find me!"
"Thank you!" Nobuhiko smiled and waved goodbye to Purgatory Anjuro.
Sure enough, in order to deal with evil spirits, mutual communication is encouraged within the Demon Slayer Squad, and there is no rule against spreading breathing techniques.
It's just that he is lucky to meet such an easy-to-talk person like Purgatory Anjuro.
...
Nobuhiko provoked Fengzhu but returned unscathed, which naturally attracted the attention of the Butterfly House members.
"It's good that you're not injured, otherwise we would waste manpower treating you." Butterfly Ninja said angrily when he saw Nobuhiko.
"Thank you for your concern." Nobuhiko smiled lightly.
"Who cares about you! I just don't want my sister to have a conflict with Mr. Fusukawa because of you." Butterfly Ninja retorted. At this time, she also had a new understanding of Nobuhiko's strength.
After all, being able to deal with Xiexian's ghost is only the basic condition for Hashira. Fengzhu is very strong and will obviously not show mercy to Nobuhiko. Since Nobuhiko is not injured, it means that Nobuhiko is stronger than she imagined.
...
In the next two months, Nobuhiko began to constantly seek advice from Immortal Kawa Saneya and Purgatory Anjuro.
His current strength is similar to that of Immortal Kawa Saneya, and slightly inferior to Purgatory Anjurou.
Of course, he didn't use his ghost ability, otherwise he could drag the two of them to death.
During this period, he also found [Rock Pillar] Wailing Island Xingming once. It cannot be said that he was defeated by him, it can only be said that he was no match for him.
The gap in basic quality is a bit big.
However, Nobuhiko grew up very quickly and soon mastered some of the breathing techniques of fire and wind.
That's right, even Immortal Kawa Saneya, who always treated others with a cold face, taught Nobuhiko the wind breathing method and sword skills when he asked for advice.
Soon, Nobuhiko was waiting for this time's test at Fujisei Mountain.
Nobuhiko, who is wearing a pair of swords at his waist, is ready to set off for Fujisei Mountain.
The other red nichirin sword was given by Purgatory Anjuro.
In addition to Kanae, the people seeing him off were also Purgatory Anjurou.
Before leaving, Fusukawa Saneya suddenly appeared at the door of the headquarters and glanced at Nobuhiko.
"Immortal River, are you here to see Nobuhiko off too!?" Purgatory Anjuro said loudly with a look of surprise on his face.
It's not that he is yin and yang, it's just that his personality is like this and he talks like this.
"Hmph!" Facing Nobuhiko's gaze, Immortal Kawa Saneya snorted coldly and said with a straight face: "Don't get me wrong, I just happened to be passing by!"
"When you get the Nichirin Sword that matches the breathing method, I won't be merciful!"
With that said, Immortal Chuan Saneya said a harsh word and turned around to leave.
"Mr. Fusukawa! I'll find you when I get back!" Nobuhiko shouted loudly, and Fusukawa Saneya's pace suddenly accelerated a bit.
Kanae looked at the back of Immortal Kawa Saneya, and couldn't help but pursed her lips and chuckled. Immortal Kawa Saneya's residence was far away from here, and it was obvious that she had to take a long way to pass by.
She didn't know how Nobuhiko became so close to Immortal Kawa Saneya.
Immortal Sekawa Saneya has a bad temper. Most of the team members respect and fear him, and few people are close to him.
...
On the way to Fujirai Mountain, Nobuhiko encountered several waves of ghost attacks.
But they are all ordinary ghosts, not to mention compared to the nightmare in Part 1, even the two-headed ghost and sword ghost that attacked him before.
In this regard, Nobuhiko attributed it to the result of improved luck.
His luck value has risen to 35 points.
Arriving at the trial site at Fujisei Mountain, Nobuhiko was surprised to find Masaki among the crowd.
