Kamado Tanjiro Vs Muzan Kibutsuji

Chapter 39 { Family }

(Rui's POV)

I say, 'In a family, a father has a distinct to set responsibilities and a mother has her own specific role to play. Parents must protect their children and the elder children must protect their younger siblings... even at the risk of their own lives. This is how a family should works. I believe that people who don't fullfil their roles have to die. They have no rights to live nor have a family. How about you? Do you know what your role in life is? Your role is to give me your sister and dissapear from my sight. Is that simple. If you can't do it, you must die.'

He replies, 'I don't care about your beliefs! You don't even know what real family are! They care for each other, make each other happy! They always be by your side when you are feeling down! That is what are family for, always accompany you to the very end! They don't care what happen to you in life and they still love you as their child! I will defeat you and chop off your head! I will not hand over my precious sister!'

I chuckle sarcastically, 'Kekeke... do you think you can win?! You too early to ever kill me!' I swing my arm upward and threads begin to burst through the ground where the boy is standing.

(Tanjiro's POV)

I roll to the side and quickly stand up. I look around my surroundings to find Nezuko but she is nowwhere to be found. I look at Rui and my eyes widen in shocked and anger. He capture my sister! How dare he!

I immediately rush toward him with rage blinding my jugdement while yelling, 'Let go of her!' Nezuko suddenly claws his face and he let go of her. When I got close to him, I take a high sword stance and slash him. He uses his hand and block my slash. My blade was stuck in his hand and he punch me in the gut sending me flying back several metres. I quickly got back up while enduring the pain in my stomach. Where's Nezuko?! Suddenly some blood drip down from the sky. I quickly look up and saw Nezuko was trapped in wires in midair. She is bleeding a lot!

The demon says, 'That won't kill her but she must learn her new role so I'll let her bleed for a while. If she still haven't learn her role, she'll burn to death by the sun.' I clench my blade very hard and trying to keep my emotions in check.

I take in a deep breath and yell, 'Total concentration! Sun Breathing! Twenty Third Style Sunbow Full Sun!' I bring down a downward slash with my blade and then produces a powerful sixfold slash crashing down on him, the attack itself is powerful enough to create several miniature craters where the slashes have landed in the forest. One of the slashes cut his arm and leg.

He fall onto the ground and immediately place his palm on the ground and yells, 'Blood Demon Art! Cutting Thread Cage!' He created a rotating cage of crimson blood red threads infront of me and gonna diced me up. I quickly filp backward and avoid the attack. He quickly regenerate his limbs back and quickly release a wave of threads toward me. I take in a deep breath and begin to cut all the thread really fast. I slash my blade to the left and to the right. Then I continue to swing my blade up and down continuously with out stopping. When I finished countering all his threads. I quickly take my breath and get into a offensive sword stance immediately.

He jumps back a metres and yell, 'Blood Demon Art! Roaring Bloodly Threads Wave!' All the threads in the area begin to glow bright red and they went straight toward me faster than before.

I harden my grip on my blade and release another sword technique, 'Third Style Scorching Crimson Sun!' I unleash two horizontal burning slashes that defends me from his attacks from the front and the side. Some of the threads cut me a little but I was able to avoid them. I focus all my blood flow through my legs and make a mad dash toward him. He created some thread barriers that is harder than steel.

I yell another sword technique, 'Ninth Style Solar Halo Dragon Sun!' My blade's fire turns into a fiery dragon head and I spin my blade like a writhing dragon increasing each strike of my slash. I cut through the barriers one by one until the last one.

When the last barrier is down, I quickly switch to a high sword stance and yell, 'SunBreathing! Twelfth Style...' Suddenly he put his palm out and it started to glow bright red.

All the threads in the area gather to his hand and he yells, 'Blood Demon Art! Broodmother Black Arachnia!' His threads suddenly expand quickly forming a giant spider shape. I widen my eyes in shocked. Huh?! A massive spider! He just form a massive spider!

Damn it! His attack is too close and too wide to even dodge it! I'm gonna get dice and slice up at the same time then die! I can't give up now! I still have to protect Nezuko! I can't stop here now! Think Tanjiro! Think of a way! There's a theory that the reason your life passes before your eyes... Just before death... is to give you a chance to search all your experiences and memories to find a way to escape from death.

Suddenly I saw my father image in my vision. He says, 'Tanjiro, your breathing. Control your breathing. Become like a sun. Take your breathing to the next level. Make your body's temperature shoot up as hot as you can. Reach a new level of strength that nobody have reached before.'
