Kimetsu No Yaiba: Storm in Hell, Strongest Story of Marechi

The Cursed Successor (FIN):So Still Alive Or Not?

Kinbouyama, Kumamoto

After seeing the scale of the attack that the devil could unleash before him, Hideki who had been reluctant to return to Kinbouyama had to go back there. Because the combination attack between lightning and fire belonging to Kojiro can be said to be very terrible, and it is also impossible that he and Kyojuro remain in the center of the crowd. In addition, the sword skills possessed by Kojiro can be said to be very good, even Hideki had thought if he was dealing with Kokushibo alone.

But in order to protect everything, Hideki considers that the ability shown by Kojiro is not all. But with that assumption as well, this Jogen Kizuki no Roku has caused Kinbouyama to experience severe forest fires, and this is clearly very detrimental for Hideki and Kyojuro.

Among the smoldering sea of flames, the sound of clanging metal quickly continued to fill the silence of the burning forest. Both Kyojuro and Hideki, who had fought between the smoke and the sea of fire, were exhausted. Because even though the external injuries from both Hashira were not so severe, the smoke and temperature around here clearly disturbed both. Not to mention Hideki who slowly heard the voices of residents who panicked because of the forest fires here.

"Half hours of fighting in these conditions. You were great as well" Kojiro said. Hideki grinning.

"Meh, there's no way I'll lose to you, Kojiro!"

"Your! We'll end this right away!"

"Well! Try it if you can! Kekkijutsu, Nichobotsu Raiu!"

Along with the growing fire, now created 16 ball lightning behind Kojiro. With just one finger movement the balls launched an electrical voltage towards Kyojuro and Hideki. With just this situation alone, while avoiding the barrage of electric voltage that was trying to grab the two, Kyojuro and Hideki exchanged glances and nodded. Both Hashira must put an end to this madness before things get worse.

Even though the electrical voltage barrage was like it did not have a pause and gap, because it had also been stung several times Kyojuro. While Hideki who tried to serve Kojiro from a close range, namely by fighting a sword, now even get a diagonal slash from the left shoulder to the right waist. Meanwhile on the other hand Kojiro was already bare-chested as his old uniform was slashed by Hideki horizontally.

Kyojuro who finally managed to escape from the pursuit of electric balls that continue to chase him ran to the back of Kojiro and kicked his head to the left with all his strength. But instead of bouncing, Kojiro instead salted and shot towards Kyojuro with nichirin gilded with black fire and electricity. Kyojuro who just realized that Hideki was already in the air now lowered his head and targeted Kojiro's neck.

Deep in the recesses of his heart, Kyojuro continues to pray that this way can solve everything. Since it should be Full Breathing from him and Hideki can behead Kojiro, though of course after that both need to move quickly to destroy his head to ensure the death of this one demon.

"Kori no Kokyu, Go no Words: Nadare!"

"Hono no Kokyu, Ni no Kata: Nobori Enten!"

Kojiro laughed in satisfaction, then directed the lightning balls that had moved away to get closer and attack the two nearby Hashira. But even though both were forced to receive multiple electric shocks for a few seconds, the balls disappeared, making it easier for them to slash Kojiro's neck in the opposite direction.

Hideki who had run out of energy fell into the cliff. Even though Kyojuro had gasped, the man unraveled the fire without hesitation using his fifth technique to smash the head of Kojiro who was still in the air. But when the brown bead sees the appearance of a shoji door from above the ground, Kyojuro reflexively jumps back, letting Kojiro's body and head pull in.

Now there was only one question that was entrenched in his mind, which was about the continuation of his fight. But because Kojiro's existence seems lost to the earth, Kyojuro finally decided to sheathe his nichirin and look for Hideki.

"Shoji's door, what the fuck was that? Ah yes, Date-san!"

Soon Kyojuro runs down and slides down the cliff where he last saw Hideki. The two beads roam around to find the white-haired companion, until finally the two neutrals catch the existence of Hideki unconscious with a face down near a burning tree.

With just one quick move Kyojuro returned nichirin Hideki into his scabbard, then desperately tried to raise Hideki to his back without caring about the fact that the white-haired man was much taller than him, and this obviously made Kyojuro a difficulty.

So in the end, when both ears heard the crack of a branch from the top of the tree, the fire-like haired man managed to raise this young blue-fashioned fellow to his back.

Being aware of the situation, Kyojuro who still has energy decided to use Full Breathing to go down the mountain. Deep in his heart, the man who had always been full of vigor was truly hopeful that someone from the union had been waiting for him.

Residents are now working together to put out the fires in Kinbouyama along with the Kakushi. Meanwhile, Ryunato who had just arrived at the foot of Mount Kinbou instantly also fell to his knees with both eyes that were bulging.

His instincts say that if Hideki did bring the demons at Kumamoto Castle here, after all there are ice chips scattered everywhere. But the state reflected by her two young brown irises was already very exaggerated. Fire filled the mountain, and smoke soared high into the sky.

Meanwhile, the young brunette young man's mind was already not connected to his body and heart. His mind and heart cried out to explore this mountain and search for Hideki and Kyojuro.

"Someone came down from the mountain!"

"That's Rengoku-sama!"

Actually, Ryunato's steps were also followed by several Kakushi and local residents. But Ryunato no longer cared, after all he could be said to be much faster than them, so the first to approach Kyojuro was himself.

Even Ryunato swore if he would not forget the eyes of the man with hair like fire when he saw it. After the Fire Hashira moves the unconscious Hideki to Ryunato's back, they all descend the mountain until they reach a place untouched by fire and smoke.

Kyojuro continues to call for it, because neither he nor Hideki have inhaled too much smoke. As a result, some Kakushi, Kyojuro and Ryunato carrying Hideki on their backs are now heading to the banks of the Kouchi River and hastening to provide first aid to the two Hashira.

Ryunato also helped the Kakushi, even though it was just lighting firewood to boil water or other menial work, because indeed the young brunette man was not so shrewd in terms like giving first aid. Kyojuro who from the beginning kept watching Ryunato could only smile faintly, then waited until Ryunato sat between his places and Hideki lay down.

"Date-san must have survived, Ichizaki-kun. His determination is much stronger than mine" Kyojuro said. Ryunato did not turn his head at all and just clenched his hands together.

"What's he doing? How strong is the devil?" asked Ryunato in a raucous voice. Kyojuro stared at the cloudy sky, trying to string the word.

"The devil is very strong. I was less able to measure it, but she was stronger than the previous Jogen no Roku that Uzui had told me."

Ryunato was clearly struck by Kyojuro's words. Not only because Hideki is close to Tengen so he is also close to the former Hashira Suara. But because Tengen did only explain every detail of the fight to people he fully trusted including himself. Ryunato shivered slightly, although that response instead made Kyojuro smile.

Just a few seconds away from Kyojuro's words, his brown slices could see that Ryunato was fully on his back. Not without reason the young brown-haired man did it, but his happiness and sense of legality are now in the midst of. Thank you for the sound of Hideki's cough that always boomed, and it even made Ryunato cry.

"Baka Ryu, just caught up with me and cried instead. Your habits" muttered Hideki. Ryunato was still sniffling.

"Next, Hideki-san, you-"

"Don't crybaby. I'm doing fine. I'll definitely be back."

Ryunato quickly wiped his tears with the backs of his hands, then smiled faintly. The young brown-haired man said he was very relieved because Kyojuro and Hideki managed to get off the mountain alive.

Ryunato also said that before he came here, the sturdy man had also gone to Kumamoto Castle and seen the thick black liquid in Honmaru Palace, which was a mouthwash was a poison. Ryunato apologizes for following the two to Kumamoto.
