Chapter 303: Jet Bullet VS Hand Demon!
"That mask is the symbol, that Fox Mask!"
"Is it called the Exorcism Mask?"
"Just because they wore it, all of Urokodaki's disciples were eaten by me. They're all in my belly. So it's like Urokodaki killed them."
"Hehehehe."
Tanjiro's Chest heaved violently with anger as he listened to the Hand Demon's mocking laughter, which suddenly erupted from his mouth as an ultimate roar.
"Uwaaaah!!"
Mumei, hidden in the shadows, was instantly speechless seeing this scene. Could it be that this kid didn't see that the other party was deliberately provoking him?
Or was it that the flesh-colored haired boy and the black-haired Girl the Hand Demon mentioned earlier, who left the deepest impression on him, were very important people to him?
"What to do now..."
Mumei watched the blue-clothed boy waving his Nichirin Blade, frantically cutting and slashing at the arms the Hand Demon shot towards him, looking like he was desperately trying to get closer to the opponent, and muttered to herself in a low voice.
"This..."
Gu Shiwen thought she was Speaking to him, which made him a little flustered. His survival instinct made him want to leave immediately with Mumei, but his moral burden prevented him from saying anything cold-blooded.
What he didn't know was that Mumei was actually asking Captain Raschi, who was hidden in deeper shadows.
"You want to save him?"
Soon, a cold voice appeared in her Earphone. Mumei stared at Tanjiro, who was increasingly disadvantaged In the Court and beginning to resist with difficulty, gently nodded, and pursed her slightly Nervousness lips.
"I saw Ikoma in him."
Ikoma is also that kind of big idiot who would desperately save people who have nothing to do with himself.
"If I say no, will you stand by and do nothing, turn around and leave?"
At the same time.
Just then, with a muffled 'bang', Tanjiro not far away was immediately struck by Boxing from one of the Hand Demon's arms. Crying out in pain, his entire Body flew out and crashed heavily into a tree trunk.
When he landed heavily, the Fox Mask he wore on his Head shattered across the ground. A bleeding Wound appeared on his forehead, staining half of it Blood red.
He seemed to have fainted, closing his eyes without any movement.
On the other side, the Cadet who had been saved by Tanjiro, seeing this scene, chose to abandon him. He thought to himself that he should quickly escape while the Hand Demon's Attention was focused on his 'savior'.
"Ah, that Bastard!"
Gu Shiwen gritted his teeth in anger at this sight. Although he also really wanted to run, suddenly he heard Mumei say in a deep voice: "I won't!"
"Huh?"
Gu Shiwen turned his Head in confusion, only to see the Girl casually snatch the Nichirin Blade from his hand, then transform into a pink Afterimage and rush out, leaving only a sentence echoing in his ear.
"Lend me your Blade, hide well!"
"Hehe, hehehe~~"
Inside the Court, the Hand Demon walked up to Tanjiro, squinting its pale yellow Demon Eyes, grinning as it covered its mouth with two hands adorned with red Fingernails, looking very Excited.
"Urokodaki's brat is going to die again, ah~"
Thinking back to how that Bastard caught it and brought it here, trapping it for nearly fifty years Time, its Heart grew increasingly angry, but on the surface, it wore a wide grin.
"That guy, seeing his Child can't return again, what kind of Expression will he have? What kind of Expression will he show? Hehehe~~"
"Ah~ I really want to see it, I really, really want to see it~~"
While laughing, it extended one of its many arms and slowly reached towards Tanjiro on the ground, anticipating in its Heart what the taste of this 'little Fox' would be like.
[Swish——]
A streak of pink flashed past. The extended arm was severed in two by a single Blade in the blink of an eye. Thick Corrosive Blood and the severed limb splattered across the ground. The Hand Demon was momentarily stunned by the sudden pain.
The next moment.
A short-haired Girl in a pink short skirt, possessing extremely high cuteness, appeared before it.
In the shadows.
"Nonsense!"
Lucci on a certain tree helplessly Shake Head.
If it were an adult CP teammate, he would likely be very angry right now, and might even consider finding an opportunity to eliminate them directly for disobeying Order.
But Mumei's age always made him think of his daughter, Kalifa, who is only three years old this year.
"Yo, what a beautiful little girl, are you also a candidate? You look really tasty, hehehehe~"
The Hand Demon paid no mind to the severed hand. Instead, it moved its massive, disgusting Body, looking at Mumei with surprise.
At this Time, Tanjiro, awakened from his coma by his deceased younger sister, opened his eyes just as a petite pink figure came into view.
"You are..."
"You two, I will eat both of you!!"
Suddenly.
The Hand Demon couldn't hold back anymore. The dark yellow arms Coated in layers on its Body opened their Demon Hand smeared with red Fingernails and shot out rapidly as if propelled by jets.
The swishing Whistling Sound echoed endlessly.
"Hmph!"
Mumei glared at the Monster, let out a cold snort with her little nose, and without a word, went to meet it.
As she moved at high Speed, her figure seemed to float. Her movements were incredibly swift. The Nichirin Blade in her palm flashed with a sharp, cold light under the Moonlight. The attacking Demon Hand, like cutting melons and vegetables, sprayed foul Blood as they fell to the ground.
Although she hadn't received extremely Professional Swordsmanship Training, she possessed basic Blade skills. When her swinging Speed increased, only a Swordsmanship master could discern anything amiss.
"So amazing"
Gu Shiwen in the forest and Tanjiro behind him were already dumbfounded.
"Dodged it... Dodged it again... What agile movements, her Speed is even faster than that little girl before!"
The Hand Demon's focus wasn't on the severed arms. After all, if one is cut off, two can immediately grow back; it just stings a little.
What it truly cared about was Mumei's Ability to remain completely untouched, like a fluttering pink butterfly, amidst the siege launched by numerous arms from different angles.
Even the few hands that wrapped around behind her Head were casually dodged with a Turn Sideways!
"Hehehe, you can only cut off my hands or dodge them, but you can't defeat me, oh. You should know, up until now, no person or Demon has been able to injure my Neck."
The Hand Demon was very confident in those two tough arms wrapped around its Neck. This was a brilliant method it had spent decades thinking of.
Even Urokodaki couldn't possibly defeat the current me!
Mumei completely ignored its words. She didn't have the habit of spouting nonsense during Combat. She quickly stepped on the opponent's extended arms and closed in.
Relying on her Observation Haki's Perception Ability with no blind spots, whether it was Demon Hand attacking from the front, wrapping around to the side or back, or even slender Demon Hand newly sprouting from the arms along the way, she effortlessly dodged them one by one. Those she couldn't dodge were directly cut off. It was an utterly overwhelming Aura.
For some reason, the Hand Demon, who had been full of confidence just moments ago, looking at the expressionless Mumei, felt its Pupil subconsciously contract.
It actually became Nervousness!
"How is that possible? Such a small Girl, where would she have the strength to cut through my arms and Neck?"
Just at this Time, Mumei performed a flying leap and flip, dodging the grabs of the Demon Hand, and flexibly jumped onto the back of the Hand Demon's Head. Her entire Body was hanging upside down in mid-air.
From this angle, the latter couldn't see the Situation behind it at all, and with its bulky Body Size, it couldn't turn around in Time either. It could only control those arms to chase after her from several directions.
But it didn't notice that in Mumei's left hand, a strangely shaped Short Musket had appeared.
[Bang!!]
As she pulled the Trigger, the Gunshot that echoed throughout the entire court rang out.
From the Gun Barrel, the Jet Bullet from Another World, in a flash of Gunfire Flash, instantly pierced through the tough Demon arm, which was like Iron and stone, and the Neck within it, even shooting out from its Throat.
"This, how is this possible..."
The Hand Demon, covering its Neck where Blood was spraying, was dumbfounded. Immediately after, intense terror showed in its eyes.
[Swish————]
The next second.
As the Nichirin Blade in Mumei's Right Hand became a streak of Blade Light and slashed across its completely defenseless Neck, the huge and terrifying Head immediately separated from its Body, flew into the High Altitude, and met Mumei's eyes for just a second.
Finally, it landed heavily, and after rolling a few times, stopped in front of Tanjiro. Right next to it was the shattered Fox Mask.
At the same Time, its Body, which was still standing not far away, began to turn into charred ash along with the Head.
"Damn, damn, my Body is gradually collapsing, I can't stop it. Am I finally going to die?" The Hand Demon looked blankly at the Mask fragments before its eyes.
"My strength indeed couldn't cut through your Neck, but Ikoma's Jet Bullet could!" Mumei looked proudly at the Moon above her Head and thought to herself.
