Nezuko pov:
For the past few days, kanae and shinobu adopted me, and this is the first time i met kanae, I've heard about her, glad i finally get to meet her in person. Upon walking back to shinobu after getting some groceries i noticed some people talking about how some rice farmers have gone missing, i checked my phone and 12 rice farmers has gone missing. I went to shinobu and she said that i'd have to investigate it with some other slayers.
There were at least 10 of us and Zenitsu and inoskue were both with me. But inoskue being inoskue still being loud as ever, and Zenitsu still being a simp. When we arrived at the location with my group, we saw a rice hat float by the river, it had a blood stains on it. Then one our slayers got shot by an arrow? Who still uses arrows these days? But the more concerning thing was that we were in an open field, there was no way for anyone to ambush us and the forest was like an hour away from us on foot. Then another arrow came straight towards us but the arrow went through another slayer and curved towards the next then the other till it was about to hit zenistu till i destroyed the arrow. And the arrow turned to ash, "w-what was that?!" Asked one of the slayers as Zenitsu screamed "KYAAAAAA!! WERE GONNA DIE!!! AAAAAAAAAH" "look out!" I yelled as another arrow came towards us but this time inoskue destroyed it. "BAHAHAHA TRY ME!" insokeu yelled as more arrows were manifesting and began attacking from all directions, we were fighting it off, well, except for Zenistu. Inoskue then used one of his forms, "find the demon? Easy!" Inoskue yelled "breath of beast, Seventh Form: Spatial Awareness" The user utilizes their sense of touch to identify the position of enemies and their weaknesses by feeling small disturbances in the air. This technique was so strong that Inosuke Hashibira could sense all the demons spread out through a whole mountain.
"FOUND IT, TO THE FOREST!" yelled inoskue as we all began running towards the forest but by the time we arrived, only me, inoskue and Zenitsu were left. Our other allies were dead, as we saw a group of 5 slayers arrive as reinforcements. "What happened here?" One of the slayers asked while running towards us until the 5 of them got shot by one arrow and we saw him, a demon with a pair of antlers and a rice hat. We saw his eyes and they read
'uppermoon 6'Narrator pov:
"I want to make this quick, now begone" uppermoon 6 said before launching several arrows and at that moment giyuu arrived and destroyed the arrows but some arrows still scratched giyuu. "Finally, a pillar! This is what i needed!" Uppermoon 6 said as he pointed towards to the sky and shot his arrow "blood demon art, arena dome" as it created a dome around giyuu and uppermoon 6. "Tomioka-san!!" Nezuko yelled while trying ti break the dome. "This dome will not break until either one of us dies" uppermoon 6 said then that was when uppermoon 6 got ready to shoot, what seemed like 1 arrow turned into over 10 arrows towards giyuu. "Breath of water, eleventh form: dead calm" The user ceases all body movements and enters a state of complete tranquility, deflecting, blocking and cutting any incoming attacks with imperceptible speed with his blade.
This technique impressed uppermoon 6 "I have never seen that before!" Uppermoon 6 exclaimed "No wonder why master wants you dead! What is your name? I am Imari, uppermoon 6" "i am tomioka giyuu" giyuu responded as he got ready to attack again, "breath of water, Second Form: Water Wheel" The user leaps and vertically spins forward in the air while releasing a flowing attack in a circular motion. But because of uppermoon 6 sharpened bow he used it like a close range weapon and dashed in a blink of an eye injuring giyuu but because giyuu was using water wheel, Imari lost his arms but healed in a blink of an eye. "Your the best water hashira i've fought yet!" Then he readied his bow again and shot more arrows. Giyuu was holding out but due to the dome, the arrows were stronger and faster.
Nezuko, Zenitsu, and inoskue were trying to break the dome, until they saw the sun rising, blood demon art Doesnt work in the sun, so when the sun was rising the dome turned to ash, they noticed that uppermoon 6 wasn't burning right away and he immediately retreated deeper into the forest to escape the sunlight, giyuu was way too injured. "Ill be fine" giyuu said before nezuko, Zenitsu and inoskue carried him back to the estate.
Infinity fortress
Imari pov:
I cant regenerate, this is my punishment for failing to kill a hashira. "Please forgive me my lord!" I begged as i felt the lords eyes glare at me "you fail to kill a hashira and it was just one! The uppermoons are failing to kill just one hashira and are only creating wounds" lord tanjiro said to me and the rest of the uppermoons.
Narrator pov:
Tanjiro was furious "I should just replace the uppermoons if they're unable to kill one hashira" tanjiro said as the other uppermoons bowed while godo yelled "please forgive us master!" While uppermoon 1 who was always kneeling didn't beg but she was calm and expected that from tanjiro. "Instead of creating chaos outside of the city, cause chaos inside, wether the humans discover us or not will not matter." Tanjiro said as all the uppermoons bowed their heads and left the fortress. And that was when tanjiro left and went to the city.
Timeskip nighttime
Nezuko was walking through the city at some areas it was more crowded, she was with Zenitsu, inoskue, kanao, and Aoi walking through the crowded area, it was like a festival, they were having fun until nezuko felt a presence. A familiar one as well with dark aura. She immediately rushed to that area with her katana to her waist, "wait up! Nezuko!" Yelled Aoi as the others followed her and nezuko saw a familiar green and black checkered haori and grabbed his shoulder. And when the figure turned around it shocked nezuko and her other friends and saw him. "Tanjiro..." nezuko said as tanjiro had a surprised expression.
