Tanjiro stared at Shinazugawa angrily. 

"Grrr.." Tanjiro growled.

"What's the matter, demon? Come on. I know you want it." Shinazugawa taunted.

"Grrrrr...." 

"Ngh!" Nezuko struggled.

She tried shaking out of his grip, but Iguro's elbow was too strong.

"Iguro, you're digging into her too hard. Ease up a bit please." Shinobu asked.

"I'm only holding her down because she's trying to move." Iguro said.

"Ngh.!" Nezuko struggled.

"Kamado, if your use any breathing techniques while your lungs are being squeezed, your veins will burst." Shinobu warned.

"Her veins will burst! I like it! Sounds flamboyant! Start bursting!" Uzui exclaimed.

"Ahh.." Kanroji looked at Uzui like she had seen a ghost.

"Mmm... poor soul. Such a weak, pathetic child... Namu Amida Butsu." Himejima prayed.

"Grrrr..." Tanjiro growled.

"Hahaha!" Shinazugawa laughed.

"Gahh!" Nezuko screamed.

"Kamado?" Shinobu wondered.

"Ahhh!" Nezuko screamed.

She broke free from the restraints and knocked away Iguro's arm.

"Ngh..!" Iguro exclaimed.

He tried to restrain Nezuko again, but Tomioka grabbed Iguro's wrist.

"Ah.." Iguro gasped.

"Ngh... Ugh!" Nezuko groaned.

She got up quickly to run up to Shinazugawa and Tanjiro.

"Ngh... Tanjiro!" Nezuko screamed.

"Grrr..." Tanjiro stared intently at Shinazugawa's arm.

He remembered when he was transformed into a demon.

"He's my brother! He's my older brother! Tanjiro is different! Though I don't know how it happened!" Nezuko had shouted at Tomioka.

"All humans are your family. Protect humans." Urokodaki had told him.

'Humans are to be protected and saved. Never hurt them... I will never hurt them!' Tanjiro thought, "grrr..."

Tanjiro stared intently at Shinazugawa's arm and then flicked his head to the side, as if he was saying 'no'.

"Hmph!" Tanjiro huffed.

"Ah..!" Shinazugawa was taken aback.

"Haaa..." Nezuko gasped.

"Ngh... Ngh... Ngh..." Tanjiro growled.

"What just happened?" Kagaya asked.

"The demon boy turned his head back in disgust." Hinaki said.

"Although he had been stabbed three times by Shinazugawa, and despite his flaunting of his bloody arm in his face, he restrained himself and did not bite." Nichika finished.

"Tsk.." Shinazugawa rolled his eyes.

"So now, it's been proven that Tanjiro won't attack humans, right?" Kagaya said.

"Ah.." Nezuko sighed.

"Ngh.." Iguoro groaned.

He ripped his arm out of Tomioka's grasp.
