A year had passed since Giyuu had last thought about his life without Ren.

His son was now a lively two-year-old, bringing joy and a new sense of purpose to his days. Despite the responsibilities of motherhood, Giyuu continued his duties as a Demon Slayer.

Giyuu Tomioka and Shinobu Kocho were dispatched to Mount Natagumo, a place shrouded in ominous fog and a haunting aura.

They moved swiftly and silently, their senses on high alert as they approached the eerie forest.

"Nee Nee, Giyuu we should split up" Shinobu suggested, her voice calm but serious. "We'll cover more ground that way."

Giyuu nodded in agreement. " mn..be careful," he said softly before they went their separate ways.

As Giyuu navigated through the dense woods, he came across a fierce battle. Inosuke Hashibira, a fellow Demon Slayer, was fighting a powerful demon but was clearly struggling.

Giyuu intervened swiftly, his blade a blur as he struck down the demon with precision. Inosuke, panting and exhausted, looked at him with a mix of surprise and relief.

"Hey! Who are you?" Inosuke demanded, though his tone held a note of gratitude as Giyuu only stared at him

"Whatever fight me!" But no answer from Giyuu, Inosuke grumbled before a second later he was tied up in the tree .

Continuing his path deeper into the mountain, Giyuu soon encountered Tanjiro Kamado and his sister, Nezuko. They were locked in a desperate struggle against Rui, the Lower Moon Five. The air was thick with tension and the scent of blood.

Rui's threads of deadly silk were everywhere, slicing through the air with lethal intent. Tanjiro fought valiantly, his determination unwavering despite his injuries, while Nezuko, in her demon form, protected him with ferocity.

Giyuu assessed the situation quickly. He knew Tanjiro and Nezuko from previous encounters and respected their strength and bond. But Rui was a formidable foe, and they needed help.

Without hesitation, Giyuu sprang into action, his movements fluid and controlled. He dodged Rui's threads with ease, closing the distance between them. Rui's eyes widened in surprise as Giyuu appeared before him, his blade poised to strike.

"Water Breathing, Eleventh Form: Dead Calm," Giyuu whispered, his voice calm and steady.

In an instant, the chaos around them seemed to freeze. Rui's threads were severed effortlessly as Giyuu's blade cut through them with perfect precision. Rui barely had time to react before Giyuu's sword struck him down, ending the battle in a flash.

Rui's body crumbled, disintegrating into ash. The threat was eliminated.

Tanjiro, breathing heavily and supporting Nezuko, looked at Giyuu with immense gratitude. "Thank you, Tomioka-san," he said, his voice filled with relief.

Giyuu nodded, his expression as stoic as ever. "You fought well, Kamado. Both of you."

Nezuko, now back in her more subdued form, gave a small nod, her eyes reflecting her gratitude.

As the dust settled over the aftermath of the battle on Mount Natagumo, Giyuu stood quietly, his eyes scanning the area to ensure all threats had been eliminated. Tanjiro and Nezuko were catching their breath, the tension easing slightly now that Rui was defeated.
