Chapter 111 Demon Slayer final battle part 3
I announced my presence in the main battlefield by kicking Muzan in the back of the head with a black flame coated heel kick and with the force of my bringing said heel onto his head with all the force of my descent the demon king's head literally bounced atop the rock they were fighting upon as all the soil had long ago been blown aside.
"I got Muzan you deal with your brother!" I yelled at Yoriichi who nodded thankfully at me and continued to combat with his older brother as I felt he would be happy at the end of day if anyone killed Muzan but his brother turning into a demon was a deep shame to his family, so he would want to deal with him personally.
Even as me and Muzan clashed in a battle of the titans with me cutting off his bladed whips, he would almost instantaneously regrow them without any care, but I could tell he was feeling the strain of generating so much biomass as well as wasting the biomass that he was passively losing even closing to my flame wreathed form.
Unfortunately, anyone or anything except the upper moons and the Hashira would die if they came within my flame's radius or around Muzan's wildly swinging whips as I chased down Muzan with him actually dodging around me and wanting to attempt to make this a battle of attrition as he knew I had killed Nakime so he wouldn't be able easily escape.
"Did you become a demon or something Yoriichi, if so, that would make you the biggest hypocrite? Or are you some foul demon art who was able to puppet my brother's essence." Kokushibo snarled as his inferiority complex reared its head and Yoriichi could only sigh at how his brother has fallen.
"My Brother Michikatsu, you have truly fallen into the pits of hell..." Yoriichi said tiredly as he dashed around one of the moon beams Kokushibo slashed at him and then used a front flips momentum to cut off one of Kokushibo's arms.
"I have abandoned long that name when I became a demon! There is only Kokushibo now! If you were never born, mother wouldn't have gotten sick, and father would never have been conflicted on who to pass our household onto!" Kokushibo screamed out hysterically as Yoriichi's inhuman grace and strength made a mockery of the strength he had gained over centuries being a demon. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
Even as I was fighting Muzan I could hear Yoriichi's heart break and firm into steel as he responded to Kokushibo's ravings. "Very well... Then demon named Kokushibo, I am going to cut you down now." He said solemnly cutting off any prior bonds of blood they may have had.
I was no longer able to continue paying a bit of attention to their battle as Muzan had snapped at the constant frying by my flames and mutated into a massive baby bigger than an elephant which tree trunk thick bladed tentacles with mouths lining the sides of the tentacles.
"I came here to fight demons. Not Bloodborne monsters!" I yelled throwing several Holy Hand Grenades at the screaming mass of flesh as I didnt even want to get close to it with how I couldn't cut through the two-meter-thick flesh tentacles without the blades and mouths trying to grab ahold of me.
But despite them being called demons the holy attribute didnt do all that much but thankfully the grenades made several large craters in the flesh of Muzan's mutated form.
Muzan collapsed for a few moments allowing me to catch my breath, but I could see his flesh visibly growing where the craters the grenades landed so I flashed in front of the head of Muzan and then used a fire coated space blade to split the mutated monster in half.
"No! I shall not die! I am eternal!" Muzan's monstrous form screamed, and I was honestly very curious how he could even speak with how I had split him in half. But just like last time I had split him in half from top to bottom I went to move his halves away from one another to burn them.
"We got this half Jake!" Tengen Rengoku and Gyomei yelled and as I looked over at them, I saw Rengoku and Tengen helping bind Muzan around onto Gyomei's chain and then with a yell they rolled the writhing form away from the other half and fell upon it chopping into the screaming pile of flesh with their Nichirin blades.
"I do not merely breathe the sun's glory... I am the suns light." Yoriichi said solemnly and before Muzan could throw him away with his melting titan form's arm the greatest demon slayer to walk this world sprinted forward and over his arm covered in a silver glow with what looked to be a wing on his side and said wing glided through the melting flesh of Muzan's neck like it wasn't even there.
'Yoriichi literally just burnt away his soul to do that.' I thought sadly as Yoriichi turned toward us after he landed and Muzan's head fell to the ground.
"Jake. I left all my teachings with Tanjiro while you planned this battle so don't leave them behind when you leave this land." He said and I only nodded as he didnt really know me all that well, so it wasn't unexpected for him to want to tie me further to the family he once gifted the sun breathing art to.
"I am not fucking dead yet Yoriichi Tsugikuni!" Muzan yelled out and we all looked as Muzan in his human form exhaustedly crawled out of the large head that fell to the ground as the rest of large form was melting away.
I not wanting to ruin the moment, flash stepped behind the exhausted demon with the last of mana and with a powerful down swing of my sword I removed Muzan's head from his shoulder and then punted it away as his body attempted to franticly reach for it.
"No! You are cheating! I was supposed to be immortal! This world was mine!" He cried out and Muzan didnt die screaming as he killed the majority of the Hashira... No, he died whimpering like a bitch as all his forces were slaughtered by the humans he despised as his lesser and his own hands.
Within a couple seconds the wretched crying form of Muzan faded way as his head and body dissolved so fast I didnt even have time to stash it into my space ring though it was probably for best as who knows if he had some nonsense to get around my space rings, time being frozen internally.
But even as all the Hashira screamed out in joy and some in tears at the losses the battle has taken with both Obanai, Sanemi, and his brother Genya dying in the battle my eyes were locked to Yoriichi who gently waved to me as his soul dispersed into nothingness and I had no idea how his soul was mangled when he ignited it to attack Muzan.
"Just let the old man have his rest, Jake." I said sighing at the waste of not bringing him into my Familia as he very firmly told me that he didnt want his wife Uta's eternal rest to be disturbed and was very noncommittal about coming back to my world.
Shinobu and Mitsuri slammed into me for a hug and even if the rest of the Hashira grumbled and if Rengoku had to drag Giyu into it we all shared a celebratory hug before collapsing to the ground in unison from exhaustion.
"Anyone hurt or lost any limbs..." I said tiredly and yes basically all the Hashira had several broken bones, so I passed out the elixir's I had but thankfully no one had lost any limbs as me and Yoriichi kept Muzan and Kokushibo occupied allowing the Hashira to double team the other Upper Moons with me killing Gyokko, Nakime and several dozen weaker demons.
Mitsuri the love pillar just pushed her face into my shoulder as we all laid onto the ground, and I could feel her tears falling onto my shirt as I had taken off my armor when they went to hug me.
"Jake, can you break back Obanai and Sanemi." She asked wetly as she cried at the loss of her friends.
"Yes, just let me rest for a bit Mitsuri." I said gently and patted her head and then I closed my eyes confident Tamayo wasn't going to do anything stupid and the horde of lower ranked demon slayers were cleaning up the battlefield as well.
