Chapter 784: Another World Outside the Story: Demon Slayer: Ripple Warrior
"What world is this?"
Cui Ze stepped through the [Any Door], left the pirate world, and started a new journey.
Although [Any Door] has successively merged the fishing harvest of three superhuman fruits, [Door Fruit], [Piercing Fruit] and [Time Fruit], it has the powerful ability to jump dimensions and timelines at will.
However, the "Any Jump" ability of [Any Door] is only limited to "under the concept of the current world." When leaving the current world and going to a different world, [Any Door] cannot actively choose a strange world that it has never arrived before.
.
But conversely, as long as you arrive at a certain world, [Any Door] can record the time and space landmarks of that world for subsequent travel back and forth.
Cui Ze closed the [Any Door] and looked around, trying to judge the general background of the current world through the surrounding environment.
The moon and stars are sparse, and the magpies fly south.
The bright white moonlight depicts the twists and turns of Ozawa's shadow on the bumpy dirt road.
"No dangerous places have been found yet."
Cui Ze slightly lowered his guard against arriving in a strange world, but he still did not leave the [Isolated Utopia].
Although its various abilities have basically reached the limit of the light screen panel, it also possesses immortality and resurrection abilities such as [Death River] and [Death Evolution].
But Cui Ze does not have any special hobby of "tasting death" or "embracing death".
When entering a strange world, Cui Ze will not let go of the vigilance and defensive posture that he should have.
[Listen to the Sound of All Things] opened quietly, and Cui Ze's perception spread rapidly.
"My abilities are basically not suppressed by other worlds. This is really great!"
Cui Ze clearly perceives his own strength status, and his perception is boundless.
"Ah... so small! Is this an island? Wait, this shape... Japanese islands?"
Cui Ze's emotions were a little subtle. [Listen to the Voice of All Things] was replaced by [Speed Force], which had a wider range of perception and faster perception speed. The shape of the current world was clearly sensed by him.
"Sure enough, it's the earth!
"I returned to Earth for the first time, without any needles poking me!"
Even if the Earth Lord is treated differently in each world.
But overall, this can still be regarded as a "familiar world", and Cui Ze is in a relatively happy mood.
Even though Cui Ze's [Speed Force] sensed a slightly "not quite earthly" supernatural aura.
But the level of strength exuded by these auras, the highest intensity is only C level according to the light screen evaluation.
"Is it a world with special abilities? It's just a little weak!"
Cui Ze's eyes fluctuated slightly, he restrained the [Speed Force], directly activated [Destiny], and the figure disappeared from the spot.
[Destiny] You can freely travel through space on any island.
The Japanese Archipelago...is also an island.
The next moment.
Cui Ze suddenly appeared in front of a team that was continuing to move forward.
In his perception, there is a special individual in this queue, whose strength far exceeds the other beings in the queue.
If we apply the light curtain evaluation system.
The strength level of this individual is probably...
It's E-level.
Cui Ze looked at the person at the head of the queue.
The strange girl with a delicate face has medium-short black hair, the ends of which show a coquettish rich purple color. She wears a gorgeous butterfly-like hair accessory on the back of her head. She wears standard clothing and a jacket with a pattern of butterfly wings.
wearing a white haori, with a samurai sword slung around her waist.
With just one glance, Cui Ze was able to identify the other party's identity through this iconic appearance, and at the same time, he also locked onto the current world background.
'It turns out to be...the Blade of Pillar Destruction!'
‘Who is it?!’
The Butterfly Ninja who was part of the Demon Slayer Squad at the time, the Insect Hashira looked at the handsome man who suddenly appeared on the road ahead in horror and inexplicable horror, his crystal clear purple pupils expanding and contracting subconsciously.
'It's so fast that I can't even react! It's like it appeared out of thin air!'
The Butterfly Ninja recalled the instructions given by the Demon Slayer Squad's main character, Uttarayashiki Yōya, before the mission.
Almost all the members of the Demon Slayer Corps sent to Nada Spider Mountain were annihilated. There may be twelve ghost moons in Nada Spider Mountain. The opponent's strength level has far exceeded the point where the regular Demon Slayer members can compete. It must be "
"Pillar" just takes action.
Because of this, Ubuyashiki Yōya also dispatched Mizubashira Tomioka Giyu and Insect Hashira Butterfly Ninja to Nada Spider Mountain.
On the one hand, it is to kill the evil ghosts in Natian Spider Mountain and the twelve ghost moons that are likely to exist.
On the other hand, it is to save the Demon Slayer members who were damaged in the Nada Spider Mountain.
Giyu Tomioka, who has stronger head-on combat capability (and is not disliked at the same time), enters the Nada Spider Mountain first to face the evil spirit.
Ninja Butterfly, on the other hand, led the logistics department of the Demon Slayer Corps to "hide", preparing to rescue members of the Demon Slayer Corps who had been damaged in the Nada Spider Mountain along the way.
But I never thought that before the Butterfly Ninja led the team to officially enter Natian Spider Mountain, they would encounter a strange enemy!
'Appearing out of thin air...is it some kind of special vampire technique?'
Vampire magic.
A special ability that only evil spirits can master.
It is also the target that the Demon Slayer Squad must kill!
She was horrified and alert in her heart, but Butterfly Ninja still had a smile on her cheeks, as if nothing in the world could make her stop smiling.
"Moxi Moxi (hello), sir, the Spider Mountain in Natian is very dangerous right now. It's better for you to leave here as soon as possible."
Butterfly Ninja's iconic voice and the place name revealed in the other person's mouth completely confirmed Cui Ze's speculation just now.
only……
Cui Ze calmly looked at Butterfly Ninja.
"Miss, your murderous aura is so full that it overflows."
"Yeah?"
The butterfly ninja lowered her eyes slightly, gritted her teeth, and wisps of white mist sprayed out from between her lips. It was actually an extremely strong breath flow.
The Butterfly Ninja's petite feet stamped hard on the ground, using the powerful reverse propulsion to gain a superb movement speed. The whole person's steps were unpredictable, like a centipede, bending and wandering in all directions, moving strangely close to the opponent's position.
And her white palm is already holding the mint green handle of the knife, and the specially made Nichirin sword is about to be unsheathed, stabbing at the weak point of the enemy's body.
"It would be impolite to draw the sword."
Cui Ze didn't make the slightest move, but an inexplicable force emerged out of thin air, and he pressed Butterfly Ninja's right wrist that was about to draw the sword, and pressed the Nichirin Sword that was about to be unsheathed back into the white scabbard.
Not only that, this force generated out of thin air directly locked the Butterfly Ninja's delicate body in mid-air, making her unable to move at all.
Butterfly Ninja's purple pupils instantly shrank to a pinprick point. The effect of this strange and unpredictable ability made her think that she had completely understood the identity of the other party.
'Sure enough, it's some kind of special vampire technique!'
Until this moment, the smile on Butterfly Ninja's face completely disappeared, and his expression was extremely serious.
"Everyone in the hidden force! Evacuate as quickly as possible! Leave Natian Spider Mountain!"
"Leave? If you leave, what will happen to the injured people in Natian Spider Mountain?"
Apart from anything else, what should we do with the little angel Zenitsu?
If I remember correctly, it was the Butterfly Shinobi in front of me who provided emergency treatment to the dying Zenitsu, who was poisoned!
Cui Ze didn't want his wife Zenitsu, a little yellow-haired boy who "cuts twice in a season and becomes handsome with two swords in a season", to end up in Natian Spider Mountain because of his own reasons.
"You'd better go into the mountains and rescue people quickly!"
"The Demon Slayer Squad doesn't need outsiders——"
Butterfly Ninja's tone was no longer as gentle as before. She was about to scold the evil spirit in front of her harshly, but she suddenly reacted.
"Wait a minute, evil spirit, why are you—"
"Evil ghost?"
Cui Ze interrupted Butterfly Ninja and looked at him with a frown.
“Just now you called me ‘Sir’ in a gentle and gentle tone, but now you just call me ‘Evil Ghost’?
"When did you have the illusion that I was an evil spirit?"
Butterfly Ninja looked intently at Cui Ze's eyes, but did not find any words in the other person's eyes - all twelve ghost moons, whether they are on the first or last quarter, will have corresponding words engraved in their pupils to show their status.
.
The man in front of him had black hair, black eyes, and deep pupils, and did not have any of the symbolic characteristics of an evil spirit.
But the blood ghost technique just now was not an illusion...
An unbelievable thought arose in Butterfly Ninja's heart, followed by a despair that nearly suffocated her.
"You are... Kibutsuji Muzan!"
The leader of all demons, the legendary king of demons, and the ultimate goal of the Demon Slayer Squad - Muzan Onimushuji!
Only the Ghost King, who is superior to all evil ghosts, can have such terrifying and powerful strength!
Cui Ze black-bone chicken and mackerel.
"Who are you calling a scumbag?!"
Butterfly Ninja is not a dull, natural idiot like Tomioka Giyu who can't read the atmosphere.
At least, she could see Cui Ze's unhappiness and speechlessness.
That feeling...
It's like calling the other party Kibutsuji Muzan...
It's like the ultimate humiliation...
'Who...is this guy?'
The suspicion and suspicion in Butterfly Ren's heart gradually dissipated, replaced by a touch of curiosity, and he truthfully expressed his feelings.
"I'm just a casual traveler."
Cui Ze saw that the atmosphere between them was not as hostile as before, so he removed the restraints on Butterfly Ninja.
He was really worried about conflict with each other.
After all, Cui Ze hasn't faced an E-level enemy for a long time.
If you are not careful, you may crush the butterfly ninja to death like a bug...
Ahem.
Cui Ze recalled the first time he went fishing, the [Breath of the Beast] that had been of great help on Kamen Island (Zombie Island), and said lightly.
"Based on my past experience, I will provide a certain degree of help to the Demon Slayer Corps' ghost-killing plan."
"help……"
Butterfly frowned imperceptibly.
After the test just now, she fully recognized the other party's strength, but in the final analysis, the other party was too mysterious.
Mysterious and difficult for people to approach or trust.
"This, sir."
Butterfly Ninja easily changed her words, and the formulaic smile appeared on her cheeks again.
"If you are willing to join the Demon Slayer Corps, I can introduce you to the Lord of the Demon Slayer Corps!"
"Let's forget it, miss."
Cui Ze sneered.
“Japan in the Taisho Era…
"If I really stay here for a long time, I'm still a little worried that I won't be able to help myself and sink the Japanese archipelago!"
This time, he was speechless. It was Butterfly's turn to endure.
She could feel that the other party was not joking.
And what's even weirder is...
The other party's arrogance and confidence from the bottom of his heart when he talked about the "Sunken Islands"!
This man's strength is absolutely unimaginable!
Butterfly Ninja adjusted his mood.
"Sir, what do you mean by 'help' just now?"
"I have learned a skill before, called [Breath of the Beast], well, it can be regarded as a branch of [Breath of the Sun] - no, [Breath of the Wind]."
【Breath of the Sun】?
Butterfly endured his gaze.
What is that?
[Breath of Wind] sounds familiar.
But what is [Breath of the Beast]?
Which Demon Slayer member created his own breathing style?
Cui Ze's words continued, and the butterfly ninja had no choice but to suppress the curiosity in his heart.
"[Beast Breath] has given me a lot of help. Considering this relationship, I plan to share a new breathing method with the Demon Slayer Squad, called [Ripple Qigong]."
"[Ripple Qigong]?"
"Yes, [Ripple Qigong] that can imitate the energy of the sun!"
