As Tanjiro, Nezuko, Muichiro, Yuichiro, Kaigaku, and Genya now joined by Mitsuri continue to fight against Kishi and Nikushimi, Zohakuten, Yui, and Suzume are having trouble fighting Fukitoko. Zohakuten is now trapped in a sandy pot with Suzume and Yui trying effortlessly to breakthrough the Sandy Blood Demon Art.

Fukitoko: Ha-ha-ha-ha! It really is amusing watching you struggle against heavy sand!

He taunts.

Fukitoko: Whether you stab or slash at the Sand Prison Pots, it will never break with your attacks. It really is fun watching you try to escape boy. So, I wonder what creative ideas are popping up in my head!

Refusing to give him the satisfaction, Zohakuten gives him a stoic face.

Fukitoko then sighs.

Fukitoko: As much as I want to watch you fight for your lives, you six were running  towards that shed. I wonder if the village chief's hiding in there.

Zohakuten starts to lose his composure and tries even harder to escape the sandy prison, while Suzume and Yui feels conflicted on either stopping the Upper Rank or save their fellow senior.

Zohakuten: (With the amount of air left in my lungs, I can muster at least one attack.)

Forest Breathing, 1st form: 

Piercing Pine

Zohakuten tries using a breathing technique, but it was all for nothing

Zohakuten tries using a breathing technique, but it was all for nothing. Fukitoko's prison technique was too powerful.

Zohakuten: (It's no use. Not even multiple thrust attacks can break through. I suppose that's the result for using a chipped katana.)

He starts to come with his fate

Zohakuten: (I guess... this is where my journey ends. I do suppose it would be a miracle if backup were to arrive. Forgive me for dying without accomplishing anything, Oyakata. At the very least, four more Hashira should be sent as reinforces.)

??: What makes you think that?

Zohakuten then sees a visage of an older boy that looked like him standing in front of him

??: We can't predict what the future holds.

Suddenly the pupils in Zohakuten's eyes start to come back.

Zohakuten: (What? Who is that?)


In the shed Kozo stands in front of the Upper Rank holding a knife acting as defense.

Kozo: Stop! I can't let you get inside!

Fukitoko: Hyo, Hyo! Why do you even bother your only wasting my time! Could it be that you are foolish enough to think your capable of fending me off.
