"He will die?!" They all said it in shocked.

Asta just nodded as a reply.

"Then, we have to stop him right now!" Magna said and they were about to run to help Tanjiro out but Asta stopped them.

"Stop!"

"Let him decide it. If we interfer, we never if he will regret it or not. He might hate all of you if you do that." Asta said to convince them but he can't convince Genya.

He stand up and punched Asta. "I rather have him hate me than losing his life for a bunch of bastards like you." Genya said that to Asta's face and walked towards Tanjiro and the guy.

"Stop, Genya." the familiar voice was heard by him make him stop.

Then, he just managed to catch a glance at the familiar guy who talk to him just now and shocked. "You are...!"

"Just chill now. I will take it from here." the mysterious familiar guy said to him and he walked towards Tanjiro and the guy.

Genya just stared the familiar guy's back and kneeled down. "Please save him!" he begged while crying.

The familiar guy chuckled and grinned.

"Got it."

"Huff! Huff! Huff!" Tanjiro is panting really hard now as he was fighting with the guy without a break but there's none of the punches landed.

The guy laughed devilishly and kick, aiming at Tanjiro's face but Tanjiro managed to block it. He grabbed the guy's right leg and pull until his elbow and the guy's knees is in a straight line. He's planning to break the guy's leg.

"NNGAAHH!!" he was about to break it.

"What makes you think you can defeat me?" the guy said as he jumped one leg and kick Tanjiro's head with his left leg. Tanjiro was sent flew by the kick.

Tanjiro felt like he's losing conciousness and blood is coming out from his head. "Ngghh!" He tried to get but suddenly, the guy is already him as he grabbed Tanjiro's shirt and pick him up.

The guy lifted him up pretty high that his feet can't reach the ground.

"Oi oi, are you done? You're no fun." the guy said and punch Tanjiro's abdominal.

Tanjiro just hold in the pain as he glare at the guy. "I will kill all of you even if I have to give my life, Sukuna!!" he shouted makes Sukuna irritated and he chuckled.

He pull back his hand to punch Tanjiro's face. This attack will decide who will win. The alliance will lose if Tanjiro's life was taken.

"Any last word?" Sukuna asked.

Tanjiro was struggling to get of the grip but he suddenly saw someone approaching. He was shocked that he saw his father in that someone. "Father...?"

He then realized who is it and chuckled. He look down to the ground and laugh. Sukuna was confused why Tanjiro is laughing.

"Any last word, you say?"

He said that and look up in Sukuna's eyes. He put up his right hand and lift the middle finger.

"Fuck you."

Sukuna is angry with Tanjiro as he punch Tanjiro's abs and pull his fist back once more. "Die!!"

He throw the punch in a straight line to Tanjiro's face. Within an inch, the punch stopped. Sukuna is suprise as he saw someone hook the punch so it won't reach Tanjiro.

"Sorry for stepping in, but can you let me continue?" the mysterious guy said to Tanjiro and he smiled.

"You're late, Eren."

It was Eren that talked with Genya before and the one who stopped Sukuna's punch. Eren locked Sukuna's hand under his armpit and launch a high kick to his face. The kick hit it and drag Sukuna to the ground.

Eren help Tanjiro to walk towards where the Hashiras is at. "Tanjiro!" Zenitsu and the others shouted as they run to him.

"Why the hell you did that?! You almost throw your life away, you know!?" Zenitsu scolded him and Inosuke punched Tanjiro's abs.

Then, Genya approached them.

Tanjiro look at him and smiled. "Sorry for making you guys worry." he apologized as Genya tears pour down on his cheek.

"Idiot. You're really reckless."

Eren clapped his hand to stop the skit. "Let's save this moment for later okay? You guys should treat him." he said and the alliance approached him.

"You bastard! Where have you been?" Jean yelled as he punched Eren but he blocked it.

"Like I said, save this for later." he said. The serious look on his face means that he's not taking his taking his enemy lightly.

"Now, just wish me luck." Eren said and walked away.

Asta, Deku, Armin and the other were left dumbfounded. "What the hell is that bastard talking about?! Wish me luck?! Go to hell with that!" Armin yelling in angry.

"Calm down, Armin-kun." Deku tried to calm him down but failed.

"You telling me to calm down?! That idiot just come and spoutibg nonsense! Why the hell should I wish him luck?!" Armin continue and the others also agreed cuz' they also angry with Eren sudden missing and suddenly appeared. But Asta don't have that in mind.

He's thinking of something else.

"No, I'm afraid that we have to." Asta said makes the others more angry.

"HUH?!"

"The Eren we see right now is deadly serious. Cuz' he acknowledge his opponent means Sukuna is stronger than him. So what he thought is he will put his life on the line to win it. So we better pray for the best now." Asta explained it to them.

Without any doubt, they all believe in what Asta said cuz' he know Eren the best than any of them.

"You better win, Eren." Armin prayed.

Seeing Eren sent Tanjiro away makes Sukuna laugh. "Are seriously going to fight by yourself?" he asked.

Eren look at him and smirked as he slowly walk towards Sukuna. "I'm alone can bring you down to your own grave!" he yelled and run.

Sukuna laughed as he also run towards Eren. "Entertain me!"

Both of them clashed with a high kick, hit each other leg. They pulled back their kicks and rush into a close-combat. Eren threw straight punch but Sukuna dodged it and do a hook punch aiming the ribs. Eren blocked it and try to hit Sukuna's body with his knee, Sukuna pushed it away makes Eren to spin and Sukuna launch a high kick to hit Eren's head but Eren bend his back as both of his hands stand on the ground and his leg at the top. Sukuna know what Eren about to do so he prepare his hand to block it.

"WOORRAHH!!" Eren shouted as he kicked Sukuna's blocking hand and pierce through it.

*SMACKK!!

The kick hit Sukuna's face and makes him to stumble back.

"YEAHH!" All the alliance shouted as Eren's attack landed on the enemy leader.

"Show them what you got, Eren!!" The Titan Shifters are cheering for him. Armin, Asta and Deku are stunned by the epic performance by Eren. But they are also impressed with Sukuna cuz' the two of them are fighting in a high pace. For someone normal, they can't catch up with the fight cuz' it's ultimately fast.

Asta is the most shocked. "Eren is on par with him?!"

"No." Tanjiro denied the statement.

"What do you mean?" Armin asked.

"Eren is not on par with him. Instead, he's growing bigger than Sukuna." Tanjiro explained why he denied it. Cuz' Eren is now has overpowered Sukuna.

Suddenly,....

*THWACKK!!
