(The next day)

Giyu Tomioka's POV

I'm now training Tanjiro as Shinazugawa left, I'm teaching him from my footwork, to timing, to being calm in stressful situations

"Tanjiro, have you tried the eleventh form yet?"

I ask

"But I previously thought that there were only ten forms of water breathing?"

He replies

"I made the form myself when I wa-"

"CAWWW CAWWW!!! EMERGENCY BROADCAST!!! ATTACK AT THE UBUYASHIKI STATE!!! CAWWW CAWWW!!!"

I was cut off by the Kasugai crow

Our eyes immediately widened as we dashed towards the state which was quite far

"Hurry Tanjiro! This is it!!! It's now or never!"

I shout at him

"Yeah!!! Let's go Tomioka-san!"

He replies as we run

A few minutes of running, we are nearing the state when suddenly

*BOOM!!!!!!!*

A huge fireball suddenly erupts from the state

My eyes widen in horror, as I ran as fast as I can, catching Tanjiro off guard, he soon caught up as he was distracted by the explosion

"What was the explosion just now Tomioka-san?!"

He asks

"I don't know but what I do know is this isn't good!!!"

I replied with a panicked tone that I never thought that I would hear from myself

We picked up the pace to arrive at the flaming debris of the place once known as the Ubuyashiki state

Himejima was attacking a demon with his weapon, smashing the head into tiny pieces, the body was impaled with multiple phalanxes of spikes

I turn my head to see the other arriving

"THIS IS KIBUTSUJI MUZAN!!! HE WON'T DIE EVEN IF HIS HEAD IS CUT OFF OR DESTROYED!!!"

Himejima shouts at us

Our eyes widen at this

We all used our respective breaths to attack Muzan, Tanjiro even joining on the spearhead assault...

"Total Concentration Water Breathing Third Form!"

We were about to end Muzan when we felt the ground give way, all of us fell into a dimensional place of some sort, I managed to grab onto a handle and hoist myself up as I see Tanjiro falling above me, as he was about to use a breath, I catch him by his haori, barely supporting him, I help him up then we took a breather...

"Thanks Tomioka-san..."

He said as I see a demon behind him

"Tanjiro! Behind y-"

He finished it off before I was able to finish

After the demon fell, more demons appeared from a room beside us, they were huddled together so they should be an easy target

"Water Breathing Sixth Form"

I heard Tanjiro speak as I adjusted to his actions

"Water Breathing Third Form"
