Chapter 558: SFDI - 558
Tanjiro coughed violently, suppressing the severe pain, and stood up to face the Upper Rank Six siblings with Drake.
Drake stretched his wrists and said, "Like I said before, you have to cut off both of their necks at the same time to truly kill them. So let’s each take one!"
Tanjiro bit his lip and said, "Drake, I want to try!"
Drake of course knew what Tanjiro wanted to try. The original plan was for Drake to deal with the stronger Gyutaro, and for Tanjiro to deal with the weaker Daki.
In the battle just now, Tanjiro had only managed to cut off Daki’s neck by luck. The training time was still too short after all. With just his raw strength, it was hard to say that Tanjiro was confident in killing Daki on his own.
But Tanjiro wanted to switch opponents with Drake, and have him deal with Gyutaro. Of course, Tanjiro wasn’t making this request out of childish bravado.
After fighting Daki, he had already understood the power of the Upper Rank demons. And Daki was just the weakest of the Upper Ranks.
Tanjiro of course also knew that if it was Drake, he could kill all the Upper Rank demons alone, and even Muzan might not be Drake’s opponent.
But Tanjiro couldn’t feel at ease handing everything over to Drake.
So Tanjiro knew that his strength was far from enough now, and he had to become stronger. Even if it was just to help a little in the battle, Tanjiro was willing to put in a hundred times the effort.
And Drake had already told him all the methods to become stronger.
Tanjiro also understood that what he needed was a battle that could force him to overcome his limits.
And Daki couldn’t give Tanjiro that kind of pressure. Only Gyutaro could do it.
Drake looked at Tanjiro’s serious eyes and said with a smile, "Since you’ve decided, then let’s do it that way!
But don’t just die! Your sisters are still waiting for you."
After saying this, Drake teleported to Daki’s side and kicked her flying with a horizontal kick.
When Gyutaro slashed down with his sickle, he didn’t even touch the corner of Drake’s clothes. Seeing Drake chase after the flying Daki, Gyutaro was blocked by Tanjiro.
And Drake easily caught up with Daki, and the light in his hand shone, condensing into the imposing blade of Martial Saint.
Although Daki was spoiled by her brother, she still had strength that was much stronger than the Lower Ranks.
Several sashes stretched out from her back, two of them plunged into the ground to support her body, and the other four sashes attacked Drake directly.
Martial Saint rotated in Drake’s hand, and the flames it brought up formed a fire wheel, directly shattering all the sashes.
With one hand holding Martial Saint upside down in a classic statue pose, Drake stepped forward and slapped Daki in the abdomen.
A ring of fire spread out from the spot where Daki was hit, her eyeballs rolled up instantly, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.
Just then, a crack suddenly opened on Daki’s forehead, and an eye with the character "Six" written on it opened, looking at Drake.
On the other side, Gyutaro had closed one eye, and could observe from his sister’s perspective and control his sister’s body to fight.
And under Gyutaro’s control, Daki’s movements finally became much more decent. Well... at least it wouldn’t make Drake so bored.
The huge hole that Drake had punched in Daki’s abdomen healed quickly, and at the same time, a dozen sashes flew out and slashed at Drake frantically.
The sound of Drake inhaling air was like thunder, and at the same time, the great sword in his hand had already been slashed out.
The red crescent moon appeared, cutting off all the sashes. Drake also took the opportunity to step closer to Daki.
The blood vessels on Daki’s face bulged out, creating more sashes, attacking Drake from all directions.
The ground and all the surrounding buildings were cut to pieces, but Drake curled his lips in disdain.
This kind of attack with scattered power did look quite intimidating, but to Drake, it was full of flaws.
The blade of Martial Saint drew a mark on the ground, and Drake gripped the hilt with both hands and swung it.
The long sword, which was more than two meters long, turned into a fiery dragon, circling around Drake, emitting a huge dragon roar!
In the sound of the dragon’s roar, all the flying sashes shattered, and disappeared into black ashes in the air.
After this period of tempering, Drake had completed his own breathing technique, and had integrated the martial arts he had learned at Shenlong Temple.
Once he integrated the magic power system as well, Drake’s new combat form would be completely completed.
However, with just the completed breathing technique, it was more than enough to deal with Daki.
The fiery dragon turned back into a long sword, and after drawing an arc in Drake’s hand, it slashed straight at Daki.
But just then, a violent sound of wind rang out behind him. Drake twisted his waist, driving the great sword to cut open the flying blood blade.
Gyutaro was still maintaining the state of swinging his sword, and the Tanjiro on the opposite side was covered in wounds.
Gyutaro was very strong. When he was still human, he worked as a debt collector, a job that often required him to face people with blades.
Even if the number and physique of his opponents were stronger than him, he was always the one who won in the end.
After becoming a demon, his sickle became even more terrifying.
Although Drake had prepared an antidote in advance, so Tanjiro didn’t have to worry about the deadly poison if he was scratched by the sickle, Gyutaro’s speed and power were enough to suppress Tanjiro.
In just a few rounds, Tanjiro had more than thirty wounds on his body. The deepest one almost cut open his chest.
Not to mention killing Gyutaro, he hadn’t even been able to stop Gyutaro from supporting Daki. It was clearly him who had proposed to switch opponents, but he had instead held them back.
Tanjiro gripped his sword, and began to silently increase his body temperature.
Under Drake’s guidance, Tanjiro had discovered long ago that when the operating efficiency of the breathing technique improved, his body temperature would gradually rise.
At this time, his senses would become more sensitive, and his power would also become stronger.
Including before, when he cut off Daki’s neck, his body temperature had also risen to an unprecedented level.
So he began to consciously raise his body temperature, enhancing the operation of the breathing technique.
But it had to be said that doing so was quite painful. It felt like his nasal cavity and lungs were burning, and all the muscles and bones in his body were being crushed.
Tanjiro’s cultivation wasn’t enough, and he hadn’t even been able to achieve Constant before he began to climb the limits of the breathing technique. This pain was the price!
But Tanjiro endured it. Even though the pain made him want to roll around on the ground and scream, he didn’t stop his breathing technique, and didn’t relax his sword form.
In this way, as the breathing technique broke through a certain limit, he suddenly felt his body relax.
The world in his eyes seemed to slow down, and Gyutaro’s action of swinging his sickle to continue attacking Drake seemed to become slow motion.
At the scar from the burn on his forehead, the flame patterns spread out.
Tanjiro’s suddenly strong aura also attracted Gyutaro’s attention at once, and the dark red marks also made him see the emerging Muzan cell memories.
But he didn’t lose his mind like Daki, but instead launched an attack at the first moment.
"Blood Demon Art: Flying Blood Sickle!"
Gyutaro slashed out a large number of blood blades, as if he wanted to cut Tanjiro to pieces.
But Tanjiro just raised his Nichirin Blade, and swung it with extraordinary calmness.
"Hinokami Kagura: Setting Sun Transformation!"
The fire dragon wound around, shattering all the blood blades, and the dragon’s head happened to come before Gyutaro.
Gyutaro saw the pitch-black blade with flames slashing straight at his neck.
