The Flower and the Butterfly

I'll Go to Hell for You! - Part 2

The battles in the Infinite Castle continued. Zenitsu faced Kaigaku, the Upper Moon Six, and won, though he was quite injured. Tanjiro and Giyu fought against Akaza, the Upper Moon Three, and managed to win, still having the strength to continue the fight. Obanai was fighting alone against Nakime, the Upper Moon Four, who was controlling the Infinite Castle. The fight had not yet been won, but Yushiro was going to help him. Finally, the battle against Upper Moon One, Kokushibo, continued, with Tokito, Sanemi, and Gyomei confronting him... Meanwhile, Upper Moon Two...

-"Bullseye!! The crow's directions were right!! Let's fight!" Inosuke arrived to help in the battle. Mitsuri looked at him, somewhat confused...

-"Vali?... I thought there would only be humans here."

-"Haha, Mitsuri-chan, how funny you are... It's obviously a mask..." Inosuke looked between them. When he saw Mitsuri, he seemed a bit sad that she had helped him with injuries in the past, but now she was an oni; he couldn't let his guard down.

-"You!! You're Upper Moon Two! Your identity has been revealed!! Along with your evil plan with the girl!! You, the second from the top!! You will be defeated by the King of the Mountain!! Who will soon become a Pillar!!" Inosuke always spoke in an explosive manner. Everyone didn't quite understand his way of acting, but Kanao seemed more relieved...

-"I'm not hiding the fact that I'm Upper Moon Two. Besides, that girl chose to become an oni, or rather, she was forced by her beloved... What an interesting boy." Mitsuri kept staring at Inosuke and Douma, as if waiting for something... Inosuke noticed that Kanao was right behind him and then saw the hole in the girl's cheek.

-"You're... All hurt! What happened?! If you get hurt, you'll... You know! Shinobu will get furious!! She gets really furious!!"

-"Didn't he see me here?" I let out a little laugh, and Inosuke looked around, finally seeing Hayashi and me...

-"Inosuke, we have a way to bring Kanroji-san back, so don't kill her... And watch out for Douma's cold air, don't inhale it; it spreads through the fans."

-"Understood! You take care of the pink-haired girl, and I'll go after Upper Moon." Inosuke charged directly at the two. Then, he attacked Mitsuri with the nichirin reversed, throwing her away.

-"Inosuke! Don't go off on your own!"

-"As he said... I'll take care of you!" Mitsuri charged at Kanao again, and Kanao easily dodged her attack, as she anticipated it...

-"Uzumomo!" Right after dodging, she attacked Mitsuri's legs, managing to hit and cut them...

-"Damn!" Mitsuri had a much slower regeneration. The oni then, in order to attack, pushed off with her hands and jumped to the ceiling. She did the same up there... She increased her speed with each push until her regeneration was ready, and then began attacking Kanao with those pushes along the wall, ceiling, and floor...

-"Kekki Jutsu: Chugaeri!" She became faster with each attack. Kanao focused on defense until she managed to land a hit... After a few more blows, the opportunity arose.

-"Ada no Shakuyaku." She managed to hit her again. Even with that speed, Kanao succeeded, cutting Mitsuri in half at the torso. The oni threw herself away with her hands and clung to the wall to buy time to heal. Meanwhile, with Inosuke...

-"Kirikomazaki!" Attacks from above tried to hit Douma.

-"Hahaha, what a messy technique. You're making it work somehow with those chipped blades and strange sword handling skills, very interesting!" As Inosuke fell, Douma tried to cut his neck with one of the fans; however, thanks to the pig's flexibility, he managed to kick the fan away and dodge the attack.
