Mitsuri Kanroji after arriving and saving the villagers meets up with Tanjiro again and goes ahead to face Zohakuten. She stops just before the manifestation of hatred confronting him. "Hey you! You've caused enough trouble tonight! Now let Nezuko and Genya go!"

"Keep your mouth shut, you shameless harlot!" Zohakuten replies. "There is only one person who gives me orders and you're not him."

Mitsuri was shocked by the demon's insult. 'Sh-shameless harlot?! Is he talking about me?! Unbelievable! How could a child use such a word?! He's about the same age as my younger brother! Oh... but demons can never age their bodies. Still, I can't forgive him for what he said!'

Zohakuten bangs on his drums.

Crazed Cry of Thunder Death

Then two dragons unleash a combined blast of Sekido's lightning and Urogi's sonic screech.

"Mitsuri!" Tanjiro cried out.

Love Breathing, 3rd Form:

Catlove Shower

Mitsuri leaps into the air and slashes the attack, cancelling it out. "That was it! I won't hold back when it comes to demon, despite your child-like appearance!"

'This girl can shred down my attacks.' Zohakuten thought. 'She is indeed dangerous.'

Tanjiro was stunned by Mitsuri's Nichirin blade. 'I-I can't believe it! Her blade is twice as long as an original sword! It's extremely thin and flexible! Her technique speed could be even faster than Uzui's! It's now only that. Her own flexibility. I'm guessing that her blade is unique. If anyone else tries to use a whip blade could cut themselves. She's the only one who can use a weapon like that.'

Uchiwa Blast

Another dragon unleashes Karaku's wind blasts at Mitsuri, but the Hashira leaps away evading his attack. Another dragon charges at her and she dodges.

Love Breathing, 2nd Form: 

Lone Pangs

Mitsuri cuts down the wooden dragon as another launches Aizetsu's Weeping Spears

6th Form: 

Cat-Legged Winds of Love

She then blocks the attack with a layer of slashes.

'I'm starting to hate how she can keep up with my attacks! So... I'll just have to ensure that she has no more movement!'

Blood Demon Art: Countless Striking Trees

Zohakuten then forms even more wooden dragons.

'Kyaaah! A wide area effect attack!' Mitsuri panicked.

As Tanjiro was watching his Hashira comrade fight the clone, he notices that the wooden nest hiding Hantengu was trying to discreetly leave the battle; he then tries to pursue it, but more wooden dragons block his path. 'Dammit! We can't let it get away!'

'Can I overcome this?!' Mitsuri thought. She then backflips into the air with the dragons chasing after her.

Love Breathing, 5th From:

Swaying Love Wildclaw

Mitsuri blitzes through the dragons shredding them down as she Zohakuten, wrapping her blade around his neck. Tanjiro was astounded by her abilities. 'She's so fast! But it's not going to help...' Zohakuten opens his mouth, charging up for another attack. 'What is he trying to do?' Mitsuri thought. 'It doesn't matter. Just slice his neck and we win!'
