Shinazugawa realized that his actions were too rough. He let go of Tanjiro's collar and stepped back, putting some distance between himself and Tanjiro.
Then, the anger in Nezuko's eyes slowly decreased. Even though she had just come out of the wooden box, she knew what had just happened.
She glared at Shinazugawa again and then angrily turned her face away, pouting. Anyone who tried to hurt her was a bad person! Hmph, she wouldn't look at him anymore.
Tanjiro smiled awkwardly, touching Nezuko's head. Nezuko had her own little feelings.
Everyone was eager to know any news about Kibutsuji Muzan.
"Shut up! I asked first!"
"What are Muzan's abilities?"
"The hideout! Tell us about Muzan's hideout!!!"
Ubuyashiki raised his hand, putting his index finger in front of his lips.
The noisy sounds suddenly disappeared, and even the air became quiet. Shinazugawa quickly came out of the house and returned to the Hashiras' line.
Everyone held their breath, waiting for Lord Oyakata-sama to speak.
Without the noisy sounds in his ears, Ubuyashiki slowly lowered his finger.
"Muzan is sending people to hunt down Tanjiro and Takeshi! Although his reason may be simply to silence them, I don't want to let go of the tail that I've finally caught."
"Something unexpected must have happened to Nezuko, something that Muzan didn't expect! Do you all understand?"
Everyone said together, "Yes!"
Obanai looked at Shinazugawa. It was lucky that someone had stopped that hot-headed guy. Otherwise, they would have lost the news about Muzan.
He looked at Giyu again, frowning slightly. This guy was breaking the rules. He had to be punished!
The white snake around Obanai Iguro's neck also looked at Giyu Tomioka, following Obanai's gaze, and stuck out its red tongue.
Takeshi saw all of this. As he had heard, Giyu wasn't liked by the other Hashiras.
And he didn't even know that he was being disliked.
Sigh!
"Tanjiro!"
Being suddenly called, Tanjiro quickly ran out of the house and knelt on the ground in the yard.
Seeing her brother leave, Nezuko suddenly turned into her mini version, and with a "heave-ho, heave-ho," she climbed into the wooden box herself, closing the door tightly.
This scene melted everyone's hearts with cuteness.
"You and Nezuko are both members of the Demon Slayer Corps. But Nezuko is a special case, so there will definitely be people who can't accept her. You have to prove it!"
"Prove that Tanjiro and Nezuko can fight as members of the Demon Slayer Corps, that they can be useful! Can you do it?"
Tanjiro was a bit stunned, but he quickly lowered his head. "Yes! Nezuko and I can do it! We can definitely do it!"
"If you want your words to carry more weight, then defeat one of the Twelve Kizuki! That way, everyone will accept you and Nezuko more."
Being encouraged by Lord Oyakata-sama, Tanjiro suddenly felt full of power. His confidence soared, and he sat up straight, looking serious and determined.
"Nezuko and I will defeat Muzan together! Nezuko and I will definitely cut the chain of sadness with our swords!"
Takeshi quietly turned to the side, covering his face with one hand and sighing. What could he say to this guy?
Ubuyashiki smiled, tilting his head slightly. "The current Tanjiro can't do that. Start by defeating one of the Twelve Kizuki!"
Eh! Defeat one of the Twelve Kizuki! Tanjiro's face suddenly turned red. He turned his head to look at his senior, Takeshi, who was covering his face, his shoulders shaking.
He was laughing at him! Ah!!! He was laughing at him.
He had said something inappropriate again!!! How embarrassing.
"Yes..."
His voice wasn't as confident as before. He regretted that his confidence had been too high.
Mitsuri, who was behind Tanjiro, was trying hard to hold back her laughter, making her face round and puffy. It was so hard!
She wanted to laugh, but she couldn't! No, she had to hold it in. She couldn't laugh! She had to hold it in!!!
Seeing Shinobu covering her mouth and laughing, Mitsuri finally stopped holding it in. The others were laughing quietly.
At this moment, Tanjiro just wanted to dig a hole, fill it with dirt, and bury himself completely.
"The Hashiras of the Demon Slayer Corps all have outstanding talents, but everyone has honed themselves through extremely difficult training, overcome crises, and defeated members of the Twelve Kizuki."
Tanjiro lowered his head almost to the ground. He had to work hard, defeat a member of the Twelve Kizuki, and then defeat Muzan.
"That's why the Hashiras are so respected and treated so well. Tanjiro, you also need to pay attention to how you speak."
Ubuyashiki reminded him gently.
"Yes, yes..."
Tanjiro understood what he meant. He was just too embarrassed!
The matter of Tanjiro traveling with his demon sister was now over. The Hashira Meeting was over for them.
The Kakushi from the support squad led Tanjiro away to be healed, and Takeshi, carrying the wooden box with Nezuko inside, was about to leave.
Shinobu suddenly said, "Takeshi-kun, you should go to the Butterfly Mansion, too!"
The Butterfly Mansion was Shinobu's place. It was also where injured people were healed. Shinobu had asked Takeshi, who hadn't been injured at all, to go to the Butterfly Mansion.
Takeshi glanced at the wooden box on his shoulder. For him, it didn't matter where he was, as long as Nezuko was safe by his side. That was the best thing.
The Hashiras looked at Shinobu at the same time. They thought that she wanted to get first-hand information about Muzan.
Shinobu frowned slightly and asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem with that?"
"Haha, Shinobu, I'm going to the Butterfly Mansion later, too! I want to spar with Takeshi again!"
Rengoku said loudly.
Mitsuri tugged on Shinobu's clothes. "I'm going, too."
"Me too."
"Going, going, going! I'm going to the Butterfly Mansion in a flashy way!"
Uzui Tengen struck a flashy pose.
Tokito, seeing everyone saying they were going, said, "Then I'll go have a look, too!"
Hearing everyone's voices, Ubuyashiki smiled again. "Alright, alright, let's start the Hashira Meeting now!"
