It's been a few days since the battle against upper moon 6. Since I'm a hashira now, I have more responsibilities to carry out. I need to get stronger. "It's about time i learn Thunder Breathing" I set out and eventually find Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke. "Hey Guys!" They all turned to me. "Oh hey Tatsuya!" Tanjiro says. He pauses and looks at what I'm wearing. "WAIT A MINUTE! You're a Hashira now!?" He asks. "Yeah! It's only been a few days but it feels good!" I replied.

I looked over at Zenitsu. "Hey come here" I said. "Me?" I nodded my head and he walks over. "I need you to teach me Thunder Breathing" He looks shocked. "M-Me? Train a Hashira!!!!?" He asked. "Yes, I'm trying to master a lot of breathing forms so I can get stronger" I explained. "Oh. Um ok then I'll try my best to help you. I only know the first form though." He explained. "I know, that's fine since that's the most important form of the Thunder style" I said.

About a few days after training, I mastered the first form: Thunder Clap and Flash. I've also mastered Thunder clap and Flash Sixfold, which is another part of the first form. "CAWWW FLAME HASHIRA TATSUYA SAITO, TANJIRO, ZENITSU, AND INOSUKE! YOU HAVE BEEN ORDERED TO HEAD TO THE SWORDSMITH VILLAGE! AN UPPER MOON HAS BEEN SPOTTED! CAWW!"

I look at Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke. "Well, are you guys ready?" I asked. "Well, uh. I've never fought an upper moon demon before" Tanjiro Said. "It's fine Tanjiro, I've defeated 2 upper moons so far. But let me warn you, if you underestimate them even once, you'll be dead within a second." Tanjiro looked nervous but he eventually calmed down. "Let's go everyone, it'll be a few days til we get there"

We eventually get to the Swordsmith village and when we arrive, we are greeted by a man in a mask. "Welcome to the Swordsmith Village Hashira. We've heard much about you, we are grateful you're here" the man said. "I am Tatsuya Saito, The flame Hashira. And you are?" I asked. "I am Sakonji Urokodaki" He replied. Later that Night, We were staying in a beautiful room and suddenly we heard a loud crash outside.

"AAAAAHH WHAT WAAS THAT!!" Zenitsu Screamed. Tanjiro smelled the air. "I smell blood. Lots of it." I closed my eyes and tries to focus. "There's a powerful demon, this is the upper moon we're looking for" I said. "Let's go" We ran outside and saw someone standing there. "Thunder Breathing 2nd Form: Rice Spirit" Suddenly A bunch of black Lightning came out of the demons sword and destroyed Multiple buildings killing many people in the process"

Zenitsu Widened his eyes. "N-No way. It's him." I looked over at Zenitsu. "Do you know who that demon is Zenitsu?" I asked. Zenitsu looked over at me and said "I-I Do" he replied. "He trained under the same master as me, he knows every form of Thunder breathing except for Thunder Clap and Flash" He explained. "Is that so? Then I guess I'll learn as I fight" I said. "W-WHAT!!? N-NO WAY!" He yelled.

"What? Why not? I've slayed other upper moons I'm sure I can take this" I explained. Tanjiro put his hand on my shoulder. "Remember what you said to me?  You said to NEVER underestimate an upper moon because the second you do, you die within a second" Tanjiro said. "I know what I said. I'm a hashira, let me deal with this" Tanjiro looked hesitant but allowed me to continue.

"If you need any help, we're going to jump in" Tanjiro said. "I know you will. After all, you did that when I was just a farmer" I smiled and moved on. "Ohhh a hashira? Never expected to meet one all the way out here! You must be the one who killed the previous upper moon 6 and Upper Moon 3" He explained. "So they already got replaced?" I asked. "Why yes of course. By all new demons as well! Very beautiful in fact. I'm the new Upper Moon 6 Kaigaku. He explained.

I got annoyed. "Enough Talking. Let's get this fight over with" I gripped my sword but suddenly a wave of black Lightning appeared right in front of my face. I dodged out of the way just in time. "Man that was a close one" I said. "Wow I'm surprised you actually dodged that one" Kaigaku stopped and looked over and Saw Zenitsu. "Oh my. Is that Zenitsu? HA! YOU NEED A HASHIRA TO DEFEAT ME FOR YOU!? HOW PATHETIC! HAHAHAHA" He yelled.

I suddenly Dashed towards him. "Flame Breathing First form: Unknowing Fire" I slashed my sword down but Kaigaku easily dodged it. "You're going to need to be a lot faster than that if you want to defeat someone like me!" He said laughing. "You want faster? I'll give you faster" I suddenly Unleashed my Demon Slayer Mark and Pressed the button on my sword. "Thunder Breathing and Also Flame breathing" Yellow Lightning surrounded one sword as The other sword lit up in flames.

I dashed towards Kaigaku and swung both of my swords Down on both sides of his neck. "Blazing Flash!" Kaigaku started to look frightened and suddenly "Thunder Breathing 5th Form: Heat Lightning!"

 "Blazing Flash!" Kaigaku started to look frightened and suddenly "Thunder Breathing 5th Form: Heat Lightning!"

A huge Wave of black Lightning flew out of Kaigakus Sword forcing Me to back off. "Thunder Breathing First form: Thunder Clap and Flash!!" I dashed towards Kaigaku and cut off his right arm but he instantly regenerates. "Wow! So your actually fast enough to catch me off guard!" He says. "It's time to end this" I ready both of my swords. "Flame Breathing and also Thunder Breathing" As before, Both swords light up in different Breathing styles.
"Thunder Breathing 3rd form: Thunder Swarm"

    "Blazing FLASH!" I dodged every attack Kaigaku threw at me and slammed my swords on both sides of his neck

    "Blazing FLASH!" I dodged every attack Kaigaku threw at me and slammed my swords on both sides of his neck. I suddenly cut his head off but something is wrong. He connected his head to his body with his Black Lightning. "Very well, it looks like I have to go all out" I said. "STOP ACTING LIKE YOU WEREN'T TRYING" Kaigaku screamed. "Come oh I defeated Akaza upper moon 3, you? You're an ant compared to him" I explained.

Kaigaku made a very mad expression. "Fine. Then I'll go all out as well" I ready my swords and Kaigaku readies his. "Thunder breathing 7th Form" Zenitsu looked shocked. "What! No way! But Thunder breathing only has 6 forms! Don't tell me that he created his own form!" Zenitsu questioned. "Thunder breathing 8th form"  We both Dashed at each other at the same time. "BLAZING DRAGON GOD!" Kaigaku Screamed. "THUNDER CLAP DRAGON ROAR!"

Both of our attacks clashed together but luckily mine was stronger and was able to pierce through Kaigakus attack and Behead him once and for all. I look over at everyone and they're in disbelief at what they see. A single person took down an upper moon. Zenitsu looks relieved like some sort of weight has been lifted off of his chest.

"CAWW CAWW FLAME HASHIRA TATSUYA SAITO! YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN FOR ANOTHER MISSION CAWW! HEAD TO THE HASHIRA MANSION FOR THE DETAILS! CAWW" I've been summoned for yet another mission. "I guess I should get going. Be safe everyone" I say.
