Kyojuro Rengoku was preparing for his next mission when he was met by Shinobu Kocho. The Flame Hashira had explained that a powerful demon has suddenly appeared and that several Demon Slayers had been sent to slay the demon but they had all been killed and defeated and with the Corps losing personnel they couldn't stand by and do nothing.
'Do you think it could be one of the Twelve Kizuke?' asked Shinobu.
'It could even be an Uppermoon' added Kyojuro. That made Shinobu worry for her fellow Hashira, if it is indeed an Uppermoon then this mission will be extremely difficult and dangerous, but Kyojuro is strong and capable he will comeback alive and victorious, thought Shinobu brushing aside her concerns, she was confident in Kyojuro's ability.
'So what are you gonna do with those Tsugikuni siblings Shinobu?, i heard the you are looking for more Tsugukos' asked Kyojuro.
'It's not as if i'll gobble them up' Shinobu jokingly answered, Kyojuro agreed and laughed heartily as he left Headquarters, Shinobu bid him to be careful as she watched him leave.

Back at The Butterfly Mansion
Zenitsu was complaining about taking his medicine again. The head caretaker Aoi Kanzaki reminded Zenitsu again that he was the most injured and demanded that he take his medicine now!. 'Ahhh thank goodness at least you two are all right dealing with this yellow brat is exhausting enough!' said Aoi as she turned to Tanjiro and Nezuko...she found Zenitsu's antics unbelievable and things would have been worse if Tanjiro and Nezuko were also injured then she wouldn't have their help dealing with Zenitsu. 'Shhh be quiet we're in a hospital ward' said Tanjiro reminding his friend to quiet down.
'Ah Tanjiro, Nezuko you two look well' said Murata as he entered the room,the siblings were relieved to see him, 'So are you feeling alright Murata?' asked Tanjiro. 'I almost melted but otherwise i'm ok but the same can't be said for your friends there' Murata said pointing at Zenitsu and Inosuke. Murata tried to talk to Inosuke about his injured throat but Tanjiro told him to let Inosuke be...the poor boy had been through so much already. Zenitsu had Interrupted their conversation asking who Murata is, Tanjiro explained that Murata is the Demon Slayer who fought with them on Mount NATAGUMO.
'Zenitsu what happened to your arms?!' asked Murata, Zenitsu told him his horror story of how he almost got transformed into a hideous spider,causing Aoi to jump in and remind Zenitsu to take his medication, much to Zenitsu's plight. 'There is only so much gross a person can take!!!!' protested Zenitsu, Aoi just looked at him with anger and said 'Then don't come crying to me when you're arms don't grow back!'. Zenitsu thought that Aoi was being cold but Aoi said that Zenitsu has it easy compared to some of the other patients in the Butterfly Mansion, all Zenitsu had to do was just take his medication and get plenty of sunlight and he will make a full recovery and not endure any long term effects, 'Ha Ha Ha you two seem to be having tons of fun' said Murata his voice dripping with sarcasm as Zenitsu hid behind Tanjiro to escape Aoi's verbal lashing, shocking Tanjiro, Nezuko and Zenitsu with his despondent expression, Murata explained how he was also summoned to report on the Mount NATAGUMO incident to the Hashira, Murata gave his report at the Hashira meeting shortly after Tanjiro and Nezuko were finished giving their own report, and unlike Tanjiro and Nezuko, Murata was verbally beaten down and eviscerated by the Hashira who were so enraged by the new weaker Demon Slayers because some of them did not fallow orders on the mountain, Murata also mentioned how he was unfairly asked so much for someone of his rank. As Murata began to speak about how the Hashira terrify him, someone walked up behind Murata and it was non other than the Insect Hashira herself Shinobu Kocho. Frightened by Shinobu's sudden appearance, Murata quickly greeted her and then left the room in a hurry.
