"Don't die on me, Kyojurou."

The said name of the owner's eyes widen, blood was dripping from his head he felt the crucial pain stabbing his body from every part. No, he can't die. He hasn't yet expressed his feelings for him, but he can't also let this demon hurt the young ones.

"Even if you fight with the intention to sacrifice your body, it's all pointless, Kyojurou."

He took in some deep breaths, trying to cope with the extreme pain. Fighting is not pointless, he'd sacrifice himself just to save everyone.

"The wonderful slashes which you attacked me with have already completely healed."

Yes, cause you're an upper moon. Isn't that already obvious?

Upper moon three traces his fingers to where the slashes he received from the flame hashira, only for his wounds to heal in a matter of seconds. The demon looked up,

"But, how about you? Your left eye is smashed, your ribs are broken, and your organs are wounded. You can't recover from this anymore."

Blood dripped from his form as it landed on the ground along with the others. A normal person who'd have died by now with all this pain throbbing inside but as a Hashira like him who has trained for years, he can't let that go to waste just because of the pain.

"If you were a demon, you would be cured in a blink of an eye. If you were a demon, this would be just a scratch."

No

"No matter how much you struggle, humans can't beat demons."

'No, you're wrong Upper moon.' Kyojurou then slowly did his stance ' Never look down on human strength, you were once you human as well, Upper Moon. Even with a hundred of tries of yours convincing me to become a demon, I will never. I swore to live and grow old with the people I love. Being human is a beautiful blessing, cause you get to live your life to the fullest. Immortality is something only fools would want.' Kyojurou gripped firmly onto his katana 'He once told me that... I will never let your demons hurt anyone anymore! Even if it cost of losing my life!'

Kyojurou then smiled, his aura had gone ablaze causing the demon to slightly trembling from the amount of fighting spirit he emits "What a wonderful fighting spirit... You have so many wounds. Yet your drive, your fortitude... And your stance has no openings.." Upper Moon Three; Akaza amused, he too then take a stance.

"YOU SHOULD REALLY BECOME A DEMON, KYOJURO!! LET'S FIGHT FOR ALL ETERNITY!!

The two lower demon slayers watched in worry as the red flames exceed the blue light that came from the demon, a large gust of dust has blocked the view from the two, the burgundy haired boy called out to Rengoku from the flame that grew to where he presumes the two were. Kyojurou sliced the demon's hand and went next for the neck, only for Akaza to deflect, instead, it stabbed his chest. Kyojurou took this opportunity to slice it halfway before turning his blade and force it up.

Akaza grit his teeth as Kyojurou sliced a small portion of his head, his eyes landed on Hashiras chest and clenched his fist intent stab it through Kyojurou's stomach. But it falters when the red flames were then engulfed by blue ones.

A blue bright blade was thrust into Akaza's arm, the owner grabbed the handle and swing it; cutting his hand. Kyojurou's eyes widen as he tried to see who interrupted only for a hand abruptly wrap into his waist pulling him close to the unknown person. Akaza looked up and was met with enraged familiar ruby orbs.
