As Kokushibou's eyes fell upon his daughter, standing resolute and determined against him, an explosive mix of emotions washed over him.
Disappointment, anger, and disbelief were apparent in his eyes.
"Sucks that we share the same blood, no? I thought I'll get absorbed in you when I teleported" She almost laughed.
Kokushibou did not find this funny. With disgust in his voice, he speaks..."It is a disgrace we share the same blood. Your existence is a disgrace in itself, unlike your name... Megumi."
Sanemi and Gyomei were absorbing what had unfurled before them in the span of the last ten seconds, 'Tenshi- no...Megumi... this is her name...and she is the daughter of this demon? upper moon 1?' Sanemi thought to himself.
'Is killing her father the motive of her life...that she talked about during hashira training...' Gyomei wondered.
But both of them knew that their victory over Upper Moon 1 was guaranteed with her presence.
Kokushibou continued, "You are no daughter of mine, you were pathetic as a human, and as pathetic as a de-"
His words were cut short when she thrust her blade into his mouth and maintained her distance. "I'm not here to have a tea-time discussion with a ronin."
Kokushibou's blood boiled at the mention of the word "Ronin". After all, it was a disgraceful term used to refer to a Samurai who has fallen from grace, the ones looked down upon by society.
Megumi landed the most fatal attack on this man, a direct hit on his ego.
Megumi signalled Sanemi and Gyomei to be on their guards, she sensed him preparing for another attack.
"Seventh Form: Mirror of Misfortune, Moonlit"
A series of shock wave-like slashes, left a lasting impact on the ground, in every direction, as with this attack Kokushibou wanted to ward off the three Hashira surrounding him.
This attack shook even a beast like Gyomei, he thought, 'This speed, with this attack range...it's bad...'
Sanemi was totally in the defensive position, 'His attacks are even stronger now, I can't do anything but ward them off with my sword.'
As both the men were in their defensive positions and just taking in the sudden changes, Megumi draws her amethyst-tinted sword again,
"Breath of Eclipse, Sixth form. Horizon Domain"
Before the spectators could even understand, Megumi cut off the left leg of Kokushibou.
Sanemi was stunned, 'I and Gyomei were able to cut his fucking ear and tear his damn kimono after fighting our fucking asses off, and this demon woman got the leg in the first blow... Is she an actual fking Goddess or is he being lenient on his daughter?!'
It was weird to Megumi as well. 'The leg is...chopped off? This easily? I don't care, I'm going for the neck, the sooner the better...'
'Breath of Eclipse, Fifth form. Arc of Cresent.'
To Megumi's surprise, Kokushibou didn't regenerate his leg, not yet, 'Why isn't he regenerating?.. What are you thinking-'
'He's focusing the blood flow to his shoulder! he WILL go for my neck! I should cut his arm-'
She was barely able to scratch his shoulder while Kokushibou slashed his daughter from her torso.
'He is DEFINITELY not being lenient towards his daughter, it was a trap-' Sanemi was worried.
