#208: Tsugikuni Yoriichi's elder brother
„Dá......”
In the slight landing sound, Riegel landed in a top layer of building.
This is a palace.
Riegel then falls in the open-air top layer of this palace, entered one somewhat to seem like the place of altar.
all around of altar inscribes the mural, particularly in which both sides, not only face each other across a great distance, and is the completely opposite content.
On the left mural is carving a Sun, is emitting the brilliance toward all around, under the brilliance is many people, they open the hand in the direction of Sun, is making the posture of paying homage, looks like is worshipping Divine Spirit, worships Hero.
On the right mural is carving a round of moon, in turning toward all around is sending out the ray, but under actually no one, without the beast, the lonely night scenery, looks somewhat bleak.
The position that Riegel stands is the solar mural front, the opposite is the moon mural.
„jade throne...... does not look like.”
Riegel whispering, immediately light opens the mouth.
„Upper Rank One?”
The voice same place, in the shadow of Riegel opposite moon mural, a form then walked slowly.
In his hand holds the blade.
He wears the kimono.
He keeps the black long temple to send high ponytail, wears black horse Chengku, has red veined mark left E and right chin to the nape of the neck place, on the face is having six eyes unexpectedly.
six-eyed Warring States Samurai, then appeared under the moon mural.
precisely Upper Rank One, Kokushibou.
„...... Is you?”
Kokushibou is opening three pairs of six eyes, is looking at Riegel's vision somewhat ice-cold, fills murderous aura.
„Is you...... said that is Tsugikuni Yoriichi......?”
Strongest Upper Rank Oni, comes, asks such question.
„What issue has?” Riegel also looks to the opposite party, said with a calm expression: „You thought I am unqualified?”
„.........”
Kokushibou has not answered this issue, but the blade of pulling waist slowly.
That is on a handle steadily eyes, seems a little the terrifying blade.
After drawing out such a blade, Kokushibou said.
„Actually to be qualified...... makes me give a try......”
Was saying such words, Kokushibou vanishes suddenly on the spot.
„Moon Breathing ——”
a form like opening out the bright moonlight of dark cloud, comes in Riegel front suddenly.
„First Form ・ Dark Moon ・ Evening Palace.”
This is Iai slash.
The speed quickly to not being able to see clearly blade, can actually leave behind Iai slash of crescent moon in the slash path.
It looks like with Moon Blade that Sun vies, has the chilly chill in the air, cut to Riegel's neck.
„Ding!”
the next moment, bringing blade of innumerable say/way crescent moon by two fingers blocking, was pinched by it in the fingertip.
„Hou?”
Kokushibou's six eyes narrowed slightly.
„So easily then kept off?”
Riegel that the only mark silk that Kokushibou's words, trades has not moved asked back.
„Is could it be that very difficult?” Riegel calmly and composedly said: „This degree of probing attack, in present Hashira/pillar also some people can under quite relaxed keeping off, really want to let the words that I cannot block, puts out a real skill to come is quite good.”
Saying, Riegel was loosening blade that pinches in the fingertip.
shortly afterwards, he sticks out suddenly suddenly, tramples, trampling ruthlessly approached Kokushibou's chest.
„Bang!”
In muffled sound, the Riegel sudden ferocity tramples falls on blade that in Kokushibou timely built, erupts astonishing power, made this Upper Rank One such as flying upside down, but general, the both feet is rubbing on the ground fiercely, withdrew from the old long distance.
The foot of Riegel, tramples Kokushibou directly returns to front of the moon wall, making him return to original place.
The Kokushibou gaze to shaking the hand of blade, that hand is shivering slightly.
It can be imagined, Riegel just that foot, actually erupted what kind of power.
„Extraordinary power......” Kokushibou solemnly said: „Before trivial human...... has such strong power unexpectedly...... so that's how it is...... no wonder, Upper Rank Five and first Upper Rank Six will die in the you hand......”
Saying, in the Kokushibou six eyes reveals actually does not feel relaxed, but is one type the emotion that is hard to get over an emotion.
Is similar, stands at present his is not Riegel, but is other anything exists general.
„this monstrous power that is unlike of humans...... is truly a bit like with him......”
Kokushibou coldly is speaking such words.
„But I must say that...... you do not have the qualifications to use that name......, even if you do not know where from studied Sun Breathing same still......”
hearing this, Riegel smiled.
„This saying by you also is really not the general satire.” Riegel was saying to Kokushibou: „, This name some people are at least using, not like you, discarded including own name, degenerates into this ugly appearance thoroughly.”
Kokushibou narrows the eye again, in the eyes releases stronger murderous aura.
„...... Do you know my matter?”
The Kokushibou sinking sound interrogated.
But the answer, naturally is the affirmation.
„Understood that Warring States period the people of Demon Slayer Corps history know existence of Tsugikuni Yoriichi, actually does not know, Tsugikuni Yoriichi actually has Elder Brother.”
Resounding of Riegel's voice slowly.
„He was once given the great expectations, longs for becoming powerful Samurai swordsman.”
„He was oneself Little Brother was once in favor, was regarded as the God's favored one of the family only successor by own father.”
„Because on own Little Brother birth forehead long had the relations of strange mark, in Little Brother nearly encountered under the condition that the family member shut out and abandons, he had should be all loves and all habitats of Little Brother.”
„But only a little, he in any event and not on own Little Brother.”
„That is the Sword Technique ability.”
Riegel's words, making Kokushibou shake the hand of blade slowly becomes tight.
Riegel just like has not actually discovered all these is the same, continued.
„He once was also like oneself Little Brother, joined Demon Slayer Corps, becomes Demon Slayer in Demon Slayer Corps.”
„To exceed own Little Brother unceasingly, his is disciplining own technique, finally not only opened mark, but also awakened Transparent World, enters into to Martials Artist long-awaited Domain of Supremacy, becomes powerful existence that in Demon Slayer Corps ranks among the best.”
„But, he cannot exceed oneself Little Brother, in the Little Brother dazzling achievement and unequalled natural talent can front, he only be able to look into his back from beginning to end.”
This is Tsugikuni Yoriichi's elder brother, is longing for powerful, is disciplining unceasingly diligently oneself, because actually throughout and on talented Little Brother did not produce the person of intense envy heart.
„Tsugikuni Michikatsu, this is the name of that person.”
Riegel to Kokushibou said such a line.
„Hears itself to abandon the name that how feels?”
these words, making Kokushibou close the eye.
Long time later, he again eye opening.
„Since is the discarded name...... that also has what good to yearn for......?” Kokushibou indifferently said: „Tsugikuni Michikatsu had died...... exists here only has Upper Rank One Kokushibou...... that is all......”
„Very said is actually relaxed.” Riegel said without any emotion: „Your Little Brother harming miserably.”
Initially, Tsugikuni Yoriichi will be expelled Demon Slayer Corps, even was requested to commit hara-kiri apologizes, for three reasons.
One was to let Kibutsuji Muzan runs away.
Let off on own initiative as Oni Tamayo.
there is still one, was assisted Kibutsuji Muzan with the close relative in Demon Slayer Corps, killed then Demon Slayer Corps acting lord.
These three matters, which regardless, place anybody body, is an unforgivable crime.
Like Zen'itsu's master, former Rumble Hashira, he merely is because the disciple turned into Oni to take the blame to commit suicide, before Tanjirou, was because harbored as Oni the relations of Little Sister, was almost requested to commit hara-kiri apologizes.
When these three matters completely centralized when person body, even if this person almost degenerates into the myth Tsugikuni Yoriichi, finally was given expel by Demon Slayer Corps.
Tsugikuni Michikatsu's betrayal, it can be said that presses the last straw in this handling.
Without this matter, has not had acting lord killed matter, perhaps then by the contribution and ability of Tsugikuni Yoriichi, will not have been expelled Demon Slayer Corps.
precisely because continually respected Lord by Tsugikuni Yoriichi's elder brother killing, the Demon Slayer Corps person will fall into the grief and indignation that is unable to extricate oneself, did not have the possibility of leaving a loophole.
Riegel said Kokushibou harming Tsugikuni Yoriichi miserably, but also has not really spoken irresponsibly.
only, oneself does not think obviously.
„What do you...... understand......?”
Kokushibou opens the mouth in a low voice.
„Can you understand that type unable to catch up with someone's feeling in any event......?”
„Can you understand that type to exercise finally actually and not on a feeling of others 's casual attempt at risk of life......?”
„Can you understand......, when all become the futile effort when...... privilege diligently was won continually that feeling......?”
The Kokushibou chest starts to fluctuate, stares at Riegel's eyes also to emit the blood threads.
„You do not understand......, because you and Tsugikuni Yoriichi same...... are existences blessed by heaven......”
Kokushibou truly very envy Tsugikuni Yoriichi, envy own Little Brother.
Because of this envy, his even hateful Tsugikuni Yoriichi, hateful to remembers the situation that he cannot bear be sick of very much.
His dream is to become powerful swordsman, finally, such dream was actually neglected Little Brother that and despised to be completed by others by from childhood with ease, that dropping variance, how can others understand?
If so, Kokushibou is also insufficient to degenerate is Oni, betrays Demon Slayer Corps, kills Lord.
Let Kokushibou decide to become Oni most basic reason, actually mark.
He opened mark.
veined mark on his forehead and neck, is mark.
When he knows when mark swordsman will die before age 25, the emotion that Kokushibou first has, is unwilling.
Does not have the time to exercise to feel unwilling regarding oneself.
Does not have the opportunity to exceed that person to feel unwilling regarding oneself.
Therefore, to obtain the eternal time to strive Martial Arts, Kokushibou accepted the invitation of Kibutsuji Muzan, becomes Oni, and cut the next present age Ubuyashiki Family Lord severed head.
And what is more, Kibutsuji Muzan later initiates being ruthless action of understanding of the Sun Breathing method, Kokushibou participated, assisted.
„Since you used his name...... to use his Breathing Style...... that to complete to come to understand......”
Kokushibou sends out terrifying imposing manner to come.
„I...... must kill you here......”
