-Tanjiro’s POV-
Suddenly my thoughts got interrupted when Uzui grabbed the collar of my uniform and threw me behind him as (Y/n) swung her blade horizontally to the sickle, having to go to the left. Multiple hits and exchanges were thrown between the three as I wasn’t quite able to keep up with their speed.
I ended up landing on the floor missing the chance to catch myself as I noticed I was just getting in the way. ‘What was I doing? I ended up holding them back because they were protecting me!’
Suddenly I felt something borrowing through the roof and saw countless sashes come from above. As the sashes surrounded the demon brother, the brother stated, “Kukuku. The whole successor thing is a lie, isn’t it? You guys don’t have control over your own movements. You're totally incompetent.”
‘The sashes and blood slices are a deadly combo. If I’m not one hundred percent, I will only be in the way.’ I thought as the attacks were sent upwards toward the ceiling where Inosuke and Zenitsu were at.
-Tengen’s POV-
As the blood blades were sent up to the ceiling, the rumble started crumbling. ‘It’s collapsing! I can’t see my surroundings because of the rumble.’ Me and (Y/n) started cutting the rumble before some of it exploded from my blades.
Gyotaro then came forward after (Y/n) swiping his arms in a forward-down motion as she deflected all his blows. ‘Wow.. Truly amazing… Just like Kyojuro-san.’ I then thought of a time where Kyojuro came over to my estate so we could have a friendly spar. Everytime we would start he would always play defensive as I seemed to always play offensive.
I would lose every single time as I suddenly have my attacks used against me. Why didn’t I see before how her movements are like his. She did redirect my blade to cut off the demon’s hand earlier.
Back to the heat of the moment I saw that blade sickles were sent behind me and (Y/n). I also had some sent in front of me, but (Y/n) had uppermoon six in front of her. Tanjiro then appeared behind me and redirected the blood sickles away from us.
I was about to help (Y/n) before I saw that she put her katana in her mouth before she grabbed the wrists of the upper moon and flipped herself to where she was behind the demon holding his hands far behind him. The blood blades then hit Gyutaro as he didn’t have enough time to redirect them.
I was truly amazed and shocked at how bad ass of a move she just did and how she still had the demon pinned slightly. Gyutaro then went to move his hands sideways trying to cut the wrists that were restraining him. (Y/n) responded to this well as she kicked her legs back pushing the upper moon in my direction.
His unbalance gave me enough time to use a breathing technique. ‘Breath of The Sound: Fifth Form, Symphony of Shrill Strings! I started spinning my blades around toward all of the remaining blood blades exploding them with ease going toward the unbalanced upper moon who quickly regained himself.
As I was keeping up with the demon, sashes then came out of nowhere surprising me but I quickly composed and sliced them up. The Kamado kid then stabbed some of the sashes, giving me some relief and time focusing on the demon ahead of me. ‘That boy’s in bad shape. It’s a mystery how he’s even able to move. That wound on his shoulder is probably quite deep. He probably couldn’t even hold his sword if he didn’t tie his hand to the hilt.’
I continued to match the demon as (Y/n) joined me soon after making some flashy combos and she would use her feet, arms, or katana to change the trajectory of the chain blades having some make scratches or even cut deep. But (Y/n) was the first to cut off a limb of the upper moon even if it was just a hand.
‘Not to mention I got poisoned. I’m not even sure how damaged (Y/n) has taken, but her wound on the head hasn’t stopped pouring blood since I saw her. I’m not even sure how she is still awake, even yet alive, but I am positive that she broke a rib or two since she isn’t breathing fully. She might be doing this so she doesn’t puncture a lung.’ I thought, swinging my blades around giving slight explosions every now and then.
Suddenly the wall of the room broke and we all took this outside. Sashes and blades were everywhere as my wife Hinatsuru then shot kunai toward the demon, as I got what she was wanting to do.
The demon seemed hesitant at first but then created a dome with his slashes. I ran forward toward the demon taking a kunai to the shoulder and the right cheek swinging my blade towards his legs cutting them off. One kunai then hit Gyutaro in the neck preventing him from regenerating immediately because of the poison that they are coated with.
Tanjiro then appeared swinging his sword towards the demon's neck. “Blood Demon Technique: Round Slashes Of Death: Splatter Sickle.” Suddenly blood blades surrounded the demon's arms as he was about to attack Tanjiro. ‘He’s slashing without moving his arms!! And it has a far reach! Am I going to get the kid out of the way in time!?’
