Chaos ensues in the Yoshiwara District. People run away from the battle with Makio and Suma evacuating people. As they help the civilians escape to safety, Makio spots Tanjiro. "Hey, Demon slayer! Over here!" Tanjiro spots them and runs over to them. "Makio? Suma?" They both nod answering him. "It's good to see that you're both safe!" "Is that girl on your back alright?" Suma asks looking at Nezuko's condition. "She went through a lot emotionally. She lost control and fell into her anger." Tanjiro replied.

"Falling into anger?! That demon is so despicable!"

Makio then pulls on Suma's cheek. "Will you pipe down?! We can't have any more panic!"

"I know you both have much to handle, but can you please keep my sister safe?"

After a moment of hesitation, Makio spoke. "Sit her on the wall here. Once we cleared out the entire district, we'll keep her safe."

"Thank you both so much." Tanjiro said as he bowed. He rested Nezuko along the wall and ran back to where his comrades were at. 'I can still fight. I won't run away. I'll ensure that they'll be defeated. I have to hurry back. For a moment I smelled poison!'


Tengen and Genya were face to face with Daki and new demon Gyutaro. "You have a lot of nerve flaunting your cocky attitude, amazing looks, and your three wives."Gyutaro said to Tengen. "You're different than the other Hashira that died against us. I can tell that you were born special. Blessed with amazing talent. I'm extremely jealous, that I want to slaughter you as soon as possible!"

"Talent?" Tengen wondered. "What makes you think I even have talent? You have a pretty rosy outlook on life if that's what you think. But the fact that you've been in Yoshiwara for hundreds of years, I believe that you have an ignorant view of the world. Japan's a big country, teeming with incredible people. I happen to know some, like men with mysterious strength that are enigmas, and some who picked up the sword, becoming a Hashira after two months. So, you say I'm chosen? Bullshit! You don't know how much I've lost over the years! What anyone in the demon slayer corps have lost! Especially this guy right next to me!" He pointed to Genya, who for some reason has Gyutaro shocked. 

"No. No way! Why isn't he dead yet?! My sickles are dosed with poison, but for some reason, scar boy's fighting the effects! Why aren't you dead?!"

"How about I tell you my secret, after you tell me yours." Genya replied breathing heavy.

"Wait. Now I get it! The poison is working! You're just fighting it with everything you got. I almost thought that you were immune to it!"

"Then how come I'm at top condition?! Your poison's useless. I've been through much to get to where I am! Even went through the Insect Hashira's experiments! I feel like I can fight you without fearing for my life!" Genya pulled out his marksman pistol and fired at the demon siblings. 'Nichirin bullets. Specially forged for me. I have incredible accuracy. But it wasn't enough for me back then. I won't make the same mistake twice!'

Genya pulls the trigger firing two bullets surprising the demons. Daki attempts to block the bullets but was unable to account for their speed as it shreds through her obi going through Gyutaro.

Wanting to take advantage of this opportunity, Tengen rushes towards them blocking Gyutaro's sickles while kicking Daki off of her brother.

"How dare you lay your feet on my sister!"

"Don't you dare shoot my brother; you scum!"

Tengen scatters bombs around him and Genya. "Genya, do it now!"
