Racing through the Kirimise section of Yoshiwara, Tengen races towards Hinatsuru who was last seen in said area. He swiftly moves through, checking house after house, until he finds his wife bounded by the same sashes behind the disappearances. "Hinatsuru!" He cuts her free and gives her an antidote seeing how she looked very ill.

"Forgive me Lord Tengen."

"Just breathe slowly. And then tell me everything that you know."

"The Orian Warabihime, was truly a demon. But by the time I learned of her true colors, she began to view me as suspicious and kept a close eye on me. I couldn't find a chance to send any messages. So, I was forced to drink the poison to fake my illness, that way I could escape the Kyogoku house. But Warabihime stopped me, giving me an Obi, that was a spy. So, I had to keep taking poison, because I could be finished instantly. Lord Tengen don't worry about me. Please go. I'm sure you heard that massive sound. That demon's on a rampage."

"Are you truly alright?"

"Yes. I apologize for my failure."

"I'm sorry, but I'm staying here until you can stand on your feet again. Once the antidote takes effect, leave Yoshiwara. Understand?"

"But what about the demon? It has Makio and Suma hostage."

"I didn't come out here alone."

"You brought Zenitsu?!"

"I did. He cares much about you three. He'll save them." He holds Hinatsuru close as tears appear from her eyes.

"Lord Tengen!"


(Entertainment District)

Zenitsu zooms through the district using his hearing to feel everything around him. 'Someone's fighting! But where?! I need to move fast!' He lands in the middle of the district feeling a hollow location underneath him. 'There it is! I can hear noises in a large cavern down there. But the entrances are narrow that someone with flexibility or a small child could enter.' Wasting no time, Zenitsu leaps high in the air dropping small explosives in a straight line above him.

Synchronized Breathing Style

Thunder Breathing and Sound Breathing, Third Form:

Flashy Lightning Cannon

Zenitsu slashes the first bead creating a chain reaction of explosions and electricity.

At the Tokito House, Daki feels the tremor as she faces Tanjiro. "That was a loud sound. Just how many demon slayers are out here child?! Am I to assume there are seven of you including the three spies?"

"I will never tell!!" Tanjiro replied.

"Listen Hashira, because you fought valiantly, I will spare your life, only if you answer my question. I mean look at that sword you're carrying. The blade is already chipped. What a weak weapon made by an inferior swordsmith."

Tanjiro looks at his blade realizing that Daki is right. Haganezuka's work was broken in such little time as the battle started, but still stayed affirmed to ignore Daki's insults.

"You're wrong! The man who forged this blade with his sweat and passion is incredibly skilled!"

"So, how come it chipped?" She felt a second tremor rattling the entire district. "What is happening?! You know what, forget it! I'll just kill you and be done with it! Afterwards, I'll deliver your head to Lord Muzan."
