Shit was about to go down. The moment Akaza called out his technique, a giant blue snowflake appeared beneath him with kanji markings at the tips. Upper moon three launched himself at Rengoku with insane speed. However, the Flame Pillar was quick to match him. "First Style: Sea of Fire!"

Tanjirō was shocked. I can't follow them with my eyes!! He wasn't the only one. Enmu and Rui couldn't help but notice the difference in strength between Akaza and them. He wasn't deemed an upper moon for no reason.

The only one who could keep track of their ninja speed was (Y/n). She had lifted a small portion of her blindfold so her left eye can analyze them. Rengoku was indeed a perfect match for someone like Akaza.

Sparks of red and blue were seen clashing through the smoke. "Of all the pillars I've killed, I've never met anyone who wielded flames, and none of them ever agreed to my offer! Why is that!? As someone who trains in the same martial arts I find them hard to understand! And they same only those who were chosen can become demons!!!"

Rengoku cut his forearm off, but Akaza easily regenerated it. The speed it took to heal his harm was nothing compared to a lower ranked demon. Upper Moon Three began punching Rengoku's sword repeatedly.

Enmu watched silently, "There's no way a Hashira can win against an upper moon. They're level is far beyond." This was the level he wanted to reach....but...

Rui clenched his fists, he knew how strong an upper moon was. He was having doubts on Rengoku, but it wouldn't hurt to have a little hope that maybe...just maybe...the flame pillar can beat Akaza.

"This is unbearable!! Someone with wonderful talents is going to have an early decline!! Just die, Kyojuro! While you're still young and strong!!" Akaza jumped in the air, "Destructive Death: Air Type!" He swiped at Rengoku.

Rengoku was knocked back by a strong invisible force. He gritted his teeth, strengthening his hand on his sword, "Flame Breathing, Fourth Form: Blooming Flame Undulation!!"

Explosions were heard as both Akaza's and Rengoku's attack clashed simultaneously in flashes of blue and red. His attacks reach me when he fires into open air with his fists. He's moving at a fraction of a blink. If he keeps his distance while fighting me, it'll be more difficult to cut his head off. If that's the case, I'll have to get close!!!

Rengoku appeared in front of Akaza, who was impressed by his determination and will to fight. The two continued to trade blow after blow in a heated concentrated battle.

"What a wonderful reaction speed!! Same goes for your swordsmen skills!! All will be lost if you die, Kyojuro!! Isn't that sad!?" Akaza shouted passionately.

"Of course not!! It's a natural part of human life!!" Rengoku argued back.

Tanjirō was about to make a move till (Y/n) placed an arm on his shoulder, "Don't." He looked at her in confusion and worry, "With the way this battle is going, you'll only be a liability to him and only get injured more. Stay down and recover." She patted his head comfortingly just as Inosuke rushed up to them.

Rengoku glanced back at (Y/n), knowing she must have told him not to interfere and focus on his wounds.

Enmu and Rui were too concentrated by the battle before them as they wondered who would win?

Rengoku managed to throw back Akaza into the forest, running after him while the others tensely waited for what would happen.

In a matter of seconds, Rengoku was thrown out back and slammed into the train, the impact causing dust to arise.

(Y/n) waved her hand to clear it away, watching Akaza come out the forest, his attempt of convincing Rengoku to become a demon was tiresome.

"I'll say it again, Kyojuro. Become a demon. You have what it takes to do that." Akaza held out his hand, waiting for the flame pillar to accept his proposal.
