Chapter 364 What do you take life for!
At first, as his instincts kicked in and he realized the situation was rapidly deteriorating, Doma's confident smile vanished completely. His seven-colored eyes narrowed slightly as he tried to make out the figure of the newcomer through the swirling dust, attempting to discern the other party's identity and strength.
However, the words that came from the dust, especially that familiar questioning tone...
For some reason, it subtly touched the depths of Doma's soul...
Or rather, it is that painful memory, imprinted deep within Muzan Kibutsuji's cells, that is an absolute taboo and nightmare!
As his pupils trembled violently, images flashed before Doma's eyes, finally settling on a swordsman with an angry expression who bore a resemblance to Kokushibo!
Although Doma was quite certain that he had never seen this unfamiliar swordsman before...
But for some reason, the swordsman's figure appeared and disappeared in that brief moment.
The oppressive feeling spanning hundreds of years caused every cell in Douma's body to wail and cry out uncontrollably, generating the thought that the newcomer was extremely powerful and that he absolutely could not fight against him and must flee immediately! This thought, in his own eyes, was utterly absurd and laughable!
While Doma was deeply shocked, he managed to restrain his urge to run away, relying entirely on his pride and dignity as an Upper Moon.
With a slapping sound, the swirling smoke and dust quickly dissipated under the strong wind, revealing the scene outside the hole.
The first thing that catches the eye is an unfamiliar figure wearing a black, tight-fitting combat suit that clearly outlines his muscles, giving him a powerful look.
He wasn't wearing a Nichirin Blade, but his peculiar attire and the terrifying power he had just displayed—power that even demons couldn't match—were enough to set off alarm bells in Doma's mind!
So much so that Doma, who was holding a folding fan and staring intently at the unfamiliar figure before him, looking as if facing a formidable enemy, subconsciously overlooked...
The stranger who appeared to be alone was actually a young man with a flame-shaped scar on his forehead not far behind him. He was leaning against a broken wall, pale-faced, and vomiting violently.
The other young man, though seemingly expressionless, stood there calmly, as if he were not uncomfortable at all.
But a closer look reveals that his eyes are vacant and unfocused, as if he has been ruined and lost his sparkle. His chest barely rises or falls; a simple check of his breathing reveals that he has actually been gone for quite some time!
It was only thanks to his naturally expressionless face that he was able to maintain the last shred of dignity and image as a "pillar" under the watchful eyes of everyone!
Without a doubt, the three people appearing before Doma at this moment are none other than Riley, Tanjiro, and Giyu Tomioka, who were the first to successfully form a team in the Infinity Castle dungeon!
Knowing the plot well, in order to avoid Shinobu Kocho dying tragically at the hands of Doma like in the original story.
After Riley completed the map of the Infinity Castle in Justice, so that he could refer to the intelligence provided from the rear and determine the approximate location of the participants, he carried Tanjiro and Giyu Tomioka, one in each hand, around his waist.
Then, relying on the pure numerical beauty of his power, coupled with his already astonishing running speed even without the Rabbit Talisman's amplification, Riley, transformed into a human demolition crew, led Tanjiro and Giyu Tomioka, rampaging through the Infinity Castle. They reached Shinobu Kocho's location in the shortest possible distance!
