A massive riot completely erupted, with stampedes and shootings occurring on every street. The screams of people, curses, cries for help, and the roars and growls of demons were ceaseless.
The guards of the The magistrate's office fearfully shot at the demons pouncing on people.
They were horrified to discover that even bullets that blew bloody holes in the demons' heads couldn't kill them; they regenerated quickly.
"I! I remember! My grandmother told me when I was little!"
"These are demons! Man-eating demons! Unkillable demons! You must burn wisteria incense at night to drive them away!"
"Run!"
At this moment, foreign newspaper reporters were fleeing in terror while taking photos with black and white cameras.
"Oh! My God! They are devils! Those are devils! Devils have crawled out of hell!"
A priest holding a Bible clutched the cross on his chest and prayed under his breath.
Meanwhile, the soldiers who had entered Tokyo had long forgotten their mission and were screaming as they fired at the demons.
Moreover, most of these demons were wearing the same military uniforms as them, making it impossible to distinguish whether they were allies or demons.
"Ahhhhhh! Demon! Don't come near! Die!"
Bang bang bang bang—
Boom!
Some soldiers even directly threw grenades.
"Meat! Human flesh! I want to eat! So hungry! Give it to me quickly!"
The soldiers who had turned into demons, without Kibutsuji Muzan specifically controlling their consciousness, all followed their instincts, their eyes red, wildly pouncing on and biting their former comrades.
"Monsters!"
"Shoot! Shoot!"
At this point, the soldiers' order had completely collapsed. They couldn't distinguish whether those in military uniforms were demons or not. In their fear, anyone wearing a military uniform shot at each other, leading to widespread casualties in an instant.
Bang bang bang bang!
Tokyo's order had completely collapsed.
Telegrams from major news agencies and various embassies were almost worn out from being sent.
"What! Devils have crawled out of hell!"
"Are you kidding me!"
"I'm not kidding!"
"I know! I've seen it!"
Gunfire and explosions echoed throughout Tokyo, drowning out people's screams. Amidst the explosions, the once bustling streets had become a purgatory.
The explosions set houses ablaze, and the crimson fire illuminated the entire Tokyo sky.
In the firelight and gunfire, demons pounced on and devoured humans, and red blood was visible everywhere in the streets and alleys.
The imperial family, military officers, and shogunate officials who had been turned into demons by Muzan continuously transformed ordinary people into demons. At this time, the number of demons in Tokyo had exceeded ten thousand.
Basically all of the imperial family, all of the children of the shogunate official families, and even most of the military officers had turned into demons.
Having turned into demons, their original thoughts were completely twisted. Now they only wanted to eat people, continuously eat people, to satisfy their desire for human flesh.
Soon, people discovered that the shogunate officials, the imperial family, and military officers had become demons.
"Oh my god! His Majesty the Emperor and the ministers are all demons!!!"
"This country is finished!"
…
The Ubuyashiki couple and the Demon Slayer Corps had all gathered in Tokyo.
However, it was already a bit late; the order of the entire city had completely collapsed.
All that could be seen were burning shops everywhere, and demonized soldiers gnawing on soldiers who hadn't turned into demons.
However, the only thing that made Yaozai Ubuyashiki feel fortunate was that most ordinary people didn't seem to have suffered much harm, mostly just bites or torn-off limbs.
It was clear without guessing that this must be the protection of Lord Xia Wei.
"Kibutsuji Muzan! You utterly depraved creature!" Yaozai Ubuyashiki's rage was beyond measure.
"Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen! Protect the civilians! Slay the demons!"
Earlier, Demon Slayer Corps members had already begun slaying demons, but now was when the majority had fully assembled.
However, even the Demon Slayer Corps, which had been passed down for thousands of years, had an actual strength of only just over a thousand people.
For the now chaotic city, it was merely a drop in the bucket.
"Kill! Kill! Watch my Boar Assault! Ah ha ha ha ha!"
A swordsman wearing a wild boar head shouted as he charged at a demon.
"Beast Breathing! Second Fang! Slice!"
A soldier demon that was gnawing on an arm had its neck instantly severed.
"Charge!"
"Slay the demons!"
Although the ordinary swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps were vastly different from the Pillars, they all possessed Breathing Techniques, and slaying these newly created demons was not that difficult.
As the Demon Slayer Corps collectively began slaying demons, some people who had heard rumors of 'Demon Slayers' cried out in relief after surviving the ordeal.
"It's the Demon Slayers! The legendary swordsmen who specialize in killing demons!"
"Great! They're here! We're saved!"
A yellow lightning bolt appeared behind a demon.
"Thunder Breathing! First Form: Thunderclap and Flash! Sixfold!"
After one demon was slain, two other demons not far away also had their necks quickly severed.
"Zenitsu! I'm counting on you here! I need to go over there! There are many demons over there!" Tanjiro Kamado shouted, carrying a wooden box on his back.
"I understand, leave this place to me," Zenitsu Agatsuma said indifferently, with snot bubbles, looking like he was sleepwalking.
Tanjiro Kamado nodded. Although Zenitsu was usually very timid, he was very reliable when facing demons, and Tanjiro felt reassured.
Looking at the demon in the distance that was pouncing on a woman, Tanjiro Kamado's anger was practically erupting from his eyes.
Kibutsuji Muzan! How much tragedy must you cause!
I must kill you, I must eradicate you from this world!
At the same time.
In the Infinity Castle, even though Nakime's Blood Demon Art of space manipulation was bizarre, it could at most only hold back the nine Pillars for a moment.
Iguro Obanai had already cut off Nakime's neck less than ten minutes after entering the Infinity Castle.
After Nakime's death, the effect of her Blood Demon Art disappeared, and the Infinity Castle directly emerged from a geisha house in Tokyo.
"Finally out!"
"Cunning bastard! Where have you run off to now!"
"Hey, hey! What happened! Why is Tokyo like this!"
"Damn it, what did Kibutsuji Muzan do!"
"Hurry and save people!"
The nine Pillars were incredibly furious, a rage they had never felt before, not even when their own families had passed away.
With the addition of the nine Pillars, the situation improved slightly, but not by much.
Because the imperial family, shogunate officials, and military officers were still continuously creating demons. Their minds were manipulated by Muzan, and they only wanted to frantically create demons and mobilize the entire nation's power to eliminate the Demon Slayer Corps.
After the Demon Slayers of the Demon Slayer Corps appeared, some demons frantically charged at the Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen.
…
Xia Wei stood above Tokyo at this moment, overlooking the great turmoil.
The golden pendulum clock phantom behind him continuously swung, and the disturbance of millions of people's fates in Tokyo made him feel how powerful he was at this moment.
Endless threads of fate converged into his Authority over Destiny. He was now the origin point of the destiny of these millions of people.
At the same time, another incredibly powerful destiny converged into a golden gear, which was the "Gear of Destiny."
This was something that appeared due to the complete alteration of the entire world's destiny.
It was a part of the destiny of all humanity in this world, and also one of the 'sovereignties' of this world.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to interfere with the destiny of millions of people in Tokyo.
This was one of the 'sovereignties' handed over when the world signed a contract with the "Gods"; another 'sovereignty' was "Celestial Phenomena."
However, it was unfortunate that the world's 'sovereignty' was limited to this world and would not be effective in other worlds.
"This country's military and old-era nobility are completely finished."
"It's time for the chaos to end."
"Let the whole world witness the existence of the gods! And be filled with awe!"
Xia Wei raised his hand high. The golden pendulum clock behind him disappeared, replaced by the silver mirror phantom.
"Projection Manifestation! Noble Phantasm: Solar Calendar Stone!"
