A Cook, A Doctor, A Ghost and A Ronin.

Black Leg Strikes Again!

*Earlier*

"Hey! Let me go! Let me go! I can walk by myself!" Genya keeps on struggling. He ordered Nezuko to let him go. He can still fight. He's not going to let someone like Tanjiro steal all the glory by himself. He's the one who's going to be a Hashira, not Tanjiro!

"Hmmh!" Nezuko replied. She insist on not letting go and to brought Genya to safety and to ask for reinforcements. She's not letting her brother's sacrifice going in vain. Her brother is doing everything to hold the Upper Rank at bay. 

"Listen to me! I'm not injured or anything! Your brother is just worrying for nothing! I'm okay! So let me go!!" Genya insisted that he's fine. Nezuko ignored him. 

"Look! I'm okay! I don't need any medical attention! I'm good as I am right now!" He showed her his abdomen that was supposed to be wounded after being stabbed with a spear. Nezuko is surprised. Just a few minutes before this, he got a fatal wound in his abdomen, then it disappeared only bloodstain that is left.

"Hmmh?" Nezuko is sure that Genya is badly injured. How did the wound just disappeared. Genya isn't a demon, he's a human. He can't heal that fast. It's impossible. 

*Swoosh!*

"Hey! Little lady! Mohawk!" A voice shouted at them from the sky. A figure landed to the ground from the sky. Nezuko facial expression is full of joy and comfort seeing that man again. Genya is still wondering how did this guy just fell from the sky. Did he just fell from the sky?

"Where's your brother, little girl?" Sanji proceed to ask where's Tanjiro. Tanjiro wouldn't let his little sister running around like this without any supervision. Nezuko's face turned bitter. She just rushed at Sanji and hugged him. 

!

Nezuko then hold Sanji's hand and pointed her finger at the direction of where they were running from. Sanji understand what's point that she brought. Her brother's in trouble. Looks like the kid got in some sticky situations himself.

Sanji run as fast as he could. Lead by Nezuko to save her poor big brother. Hold on Tanjiro, I'm coming! Sanji could only hope that Tanjiro is still alive and well by the time they got there. He needs to prepare for the worse.

*Present Time*

"Say, who were you going to kill again?" Sanji looked at them with a death stare. If looks could kill, Sanji is definitely done with them. The Upper Rank Four is frozen for a while. All four of them had a different reaction to Sanji's death stare.

Sekido is severely annoyed and were shocked by the Sanji's sudden appearance. They couldn't sense Sanji's presence until now. He's really angry. One after another human keeps on interrupting their mission. He can't afford anymore distractions. There's only few more hours before dawn.

Karaku on the other hand, is bewildered and excited. The blonde's death stare made him understood that the blonde is no joke. He can't wait to play with this new playmate of his. Aizetsu's face is full of despondency and dejection. It seems that another human had arrived to die.

Urogi's reaction is similar to Karaku. He also wanted a good fight. He seemed to view the entire battle against the Demon Slayers as nothing more than a game or as a source of entertainment with his face full of constant glee and enjoyment.

"Hello? I'm not talking to wall aren't I?" Sanji puffs out a cloud of smoke to the air, tobacco aftertaste resided in his tongue. Sanji demands a reply from them. Who is still wondering how a mere human could simply sneaked up on them. 

"You got a lot of nerv-

*Bam!*

Before Karaku could finish his sentence, Sanji raised his knee and delivers a powerful kick to Karaku's neck. Sending him off the rooftop to the ground below, not giving Karaku a single chance to counter back.

"Whoops, I forgot. I'm here to beat your ass, not to have some empty pointless chat." All of them was stunned. It happened so fast that they didn't even noticed that Karaku wasn't here anymore. They were genuinely shocked. That was so fast! I couldn't see him move at all! Aizetsu thought.

"Urogi! Aizetsu!!" Sekido shouted to Urogi and Aizetsu. He called them both and they heeded the call. Both of them took immediate action. Aizetsu thrusts his spear alongside Urogi who pounces with his sharps talon like an eagle.

*Fwoosh!*

Sanji's feet touch the spear tips and redirect the spear to the right to the other way using the thrusting momentum by Aizetsu. Sanji then send a stabbing kick right on Aizetsu's chest that's powerful to send the demon away.

*Bam!*

"Urghh!" Aizetsu was thrown away with his spear. This was the first time Aizetsu sees someone redirect a tip of a spear using his feet. This man is no ordinary human. 

Urogi drops down to pounces on Sanji to slash the man with his claws. Sanji drops down into a one-handed handstand position, he kicks Urogi hard in the ribs leaving the demon gasping for air.

*Dush!*

*Kra-Koom!*

"Hey! Let me join in too!!" Karaku leaped a great height from the ground towards the rooftop aiming for the cook as he drops down the rooftop with a powerful slam. Sanji retreated few meters away.

"Gladly" Sanji replied. Both parties dashes towards each other and clashed.

*Kh-Toom!*

"Not bad! To think there was a human with a strength equivalent to us demons!" Karaku smiled and complimented the cook. He was happy that there is someone that could play with him on a similar level. 

"Thanks!" Sanji thanked him for the compliment. Then, from Sanji's left and right two shadows appeared. It was Sekido who's flanking Sanji from both sides while he's busy with Karaku. Sekido is planning to stab Sanji with the Khakkhara staff and electrocute the cook.

"Just die already!" Sekido told Sanji to just die as he attempted to kill Sanji by stabbing him with the Khakkhara staff.

 "You think I didn't plan something incase something like this happened?!" Sanji already expected this since its four-on-one. They would always search for openings.

"Party Table Kick Course!" Sanji drops down again in a handstand. He then spins around rapidly to deliver a kick to the face of anyone within range. The attempt failed miserably. 

When Sekido set his eyes on Sanji again, he find the cook to be nowhere. Aizetsu, Urogi and Karaku  also couldn't find the cook anywhere. He immediately disappeared the split second they take their eyes off of him. Where's that damn guy?!

When they look down to the first floor of the inn, Sanji is taking care of Tanjiro who's wounded by the four earlier. Sanji helped Tanjiro to stand. "Are you okay?" Sanji asked if Tanjiro is alright. Tanjiro nodded.

"Thanks for coming." Tanjiro is grateful that Sanji is here to help him.

"Save your gratitude for later. Can you stand?" Sanji told Tanjiro to thank him later and ask Tanjiro if he could stand properly. Tanjiro could barely stand properly. His kneecap is in a bad condition.

"Nezuko, Mohawk, take care of Tanjiro." Sanji ordered Nezuko and Genya to take care of Tanjiro and bring him out from here. Genya wanted to refuse and join the fight but its an order from Sanji. He can't do anything against the order of his superior.

"Wait, I can still fight!" Tanjiro insisted that he could still fight. He doesn't want to just sit there and do nothing. Sanji just shakes his head.

"As if. You could barely stand your ground. Sit here, rest." Sanji told Tanjiro to just stand down.

"But they could use Haki!" That piqued Sanji's interest. Those guys, they can use Haki?

"So what? Just because they use Haki, doesn't mean I'm going to lose. You've done well in standing your ground kid. But leave the rest of the show to me." Sanji smiled.
