Of devlopments and potential cures

The Hashiras all gathered at the Ubayashiki Estate for the meeting. The atmosphere was tense, as recent events weighed heavily on everyone's minds. Sitting in front of them was their leader, Kagaya Ubuyashiki.

"Thank you all for coming," Kagaya began. "We have much to discuss regarding the recent developments."

Rengoku leaned forward, his intense gaze fixed on Kagaya. "Master, what is the current status of the fight against the demons? Have there been any significant changes?"

Kagaya nodded. "Yes, Kyojuro. We have received reports of increased demon activity in several regions. However, we have also had a breakthrough that might be of interest to everyone here."

Mitsuri looked around the room with concern. "What kind of breakthrough, Master?"

Before Kagaya could respond, Shinobu spoke up. "If I may, Master," she said, her voice carrying a note of urgency. "I've been working on something that could potentially turn Nezuko Kamado back into a human."

The room fell silent as everyone turned their attention to Shinobu.

"Really?" Tengen asked, his voice a mix of surprise and skepticism. "How close are you to completing it?"

Shinobu sighed, a hint of frustration in her expression. "I've made significant progress, but there are still several challenges. The blood samples I've been able to analyze from various demons have helped me understand more about the demonic transformation. However, creating a cure that can reverse the process entirely is proving to be extremely difficult."

Muichiro furrowed his brow. "What kind of challenges are you facing?"

Shinobu glanced at him, her eyes reflecting her determination. "The main issue is stabilizing the cure. Every formula I've tested so far either has no effect or is too unstable to be safe. I need more information about the origins of the demons and their transformations. The more we understand about Muzan Kibutsuji and his blood, the closer we can get to a viable solution."

Sanemi crossed his arms, a skeptical look on his face. "And what makes you think this will work? What if it's all just a waste of time?"

Shinobu met his gaze evenly. "It's a risk, Sanemi, but one worth taking. If we can save even one life, if we can bring Nezuko back to her family, it will be worth it."

Giyuu, who had been silent up until now, spoke softly. "We should support Shinobu's efforts. Nezuko has proven to be an ally. If there's a chance to save her, we should take it."

As the meeting progressed, Mitsuri raised her hand to speak.

"Master, if I may," she began, her usually cheerful expression now serious, "there's another matter that we should address—Ayaka and the other traitor demons."

A ripple of murmurs spread through the room as the Hashira exchanged concerned glances.

"Yes, Mitsuri," Kagaya said, giving her a nod to continue.

"Recently, we've encountered demons who have expressed a desire to betray Muzan Kibutsuji and join our cause," Mitsuri explained. "Ayaka is the leader of this group. She and a few others claim they want to help us, but it's hard to know if we can trust them."

Obanai narrowed his eyes. "And what makes you think they can be trusted? Demons are masters of deception."

Mitsuri nodded. "I understand the concern, Iguro-san. Ayaka's blood demon art can eradicate Muzan's cells from a demons body."

Rengoku leaned forward, his intense gaze fixed on Mitsuri. "But what if it's a trap? We cannot afford to be complacent. One wrong move could be disastrous."
