Chapter 55 Long Time No See
Chapter 55 Long Time No See
"What a pity."
Chu Wuji reached out and picked up the test tube rack on the table, looking at the four different colored medicines inside against the light.
These are the four drugs that Tamayo researched: [Demon Transformation Reversal Drug], [Rapid Aging Drug], [Splitting Inhibitor Drug], and [Cell Destruction Drug].
Currently, due to his involvement in research and development, Chu Wuji has mastered all drugs except for the [Rapid Aging Drug]. However, he simply cannot understand how the [Rapid Aging Drug] is made.
Just like Gintoki making sushi in Gintama, the ingredients are clearly rice and sashimi, but with a little kneading, it turns into a parfait sundae.
Chu Wuji was just as bewildered as Shinpachi watching Gintoki make sushi when he saw Tamayo developing this drug; one could only say that Demon Slayer's mysterious medical techniques had really kicked in.
Fortunately, the system was not bad either. After watching and learning it several times, Chu Wuji also learned the weakened version of the [Rapid Aging Drug]. The original drug could make Muzan age fifty years in one minute, while Chu Wuji's weakened version could only make the user age for several months in one minute, and the effect varied from person to person.
If Chu Wuji had studied a little longer, he should have been able to learn the original version, but unfortunately, Tamayo is going to die tonight.
Because she had become a demon hundreds of years ago and unconsciously killed and ate her husband and son, Tamayo, in a fit of despair, stood by Muzan's side and aided him in his evil deeds.
Now she has a chance to atone for her sins. Having already resolved to die, she never thought she would come back alive during this mission.
During the few days that Chu Wuji and Shinobu Kocho were researching the potion, Chu Wuji had given them hints, but he couldn't change Tamayo's mind.
"Good evening, Mukichi-kun." Shinobu Kocho, wearing a white coat, pushed open the door and entered. After looking around, she asked, "Hasn't Tamayo-san arrived yet?"
"Hmm, maybe she has something to do."
"Is that so? However, the drug is almost ready. Miss Tamayo, you can study it some more. All that's left is to conduct repeated live experiments."
Just as Shinobu Kocho put on her gloves and picked up a white mouse to inject it, a crow suddenly squeezed open the window and flew in, its cry filled with urgency and panic:
"Emergency assembly! Emergency assembly!"
"Ubuyashiki Mansion Attacked!"
"What?!" Shinobu Kocho's pupils dilated suddenly, and the syringe in her hand shattered on the ground.
She immediately took off her white coat, pushed open the door, and rushed out.
"Too slow, let me do it." Chu Wuji appeared beside Kocho Shinobu like a ghost, grabbed her belt, and hoisted her onto his shoulder: "Excuse me."
Shinobu Kocho didn't react to Chu Wuji's actions, but anxiously shouted, "My sword!"
"I brought it."
Chu Wuji lightly touched the ground with his toes, and the terrifying push almost made Butterfly Shinobu vomit her dinner. However, a surge of "qi" enveloped her immediately afterward, relieving much of the force.
Wow, so fast!
----------
"I didn't expect you to listen to me for so long."
"Thank you, Muzan."
Muzan didn't realize the intention behind those words; he simply thought the man in front of him was provoking him.
Before Muzan could do anything, countless spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the ground, from which terrifyingly high-temperature flames spilled out.
"boom!!!!"
The horrific explosion spread outwards from below the three people, turning the entire Ubuyashiki mansion into ruins.
Muzan, who was originally wearing a white suit with a black sable shawl, was instantly blown into a charred mess and fell onto the scalding ground with the shockwave.
"I...Yashiki!"
Muzan's body began to heal rapidly, but the speed was much slower than usual due to the high temperature.
Before he could fully heal himself, countless iron spikes rained down from the sky, pinning him to the ground.
At the same time, Tamayo's figure appeared out of thin air and punched Muzan into his body with a fist containing the drug.
"What?!"
at the same time.
"call......"
On the verge of explosion, Chu Wuji's figure transformed into a streak of light and appeared beside Shinobu Kocho, holding two identical white-haired children in his arms.
"This is... the lord's child?"
Still reeling from the shock of the Ubuyashiki mansion explosion, Shinobu Kocho's mind went completely blank when she saw this scene.
"What's going on?"
"It's just a small favor your lord asked me to do."
The TNT explosion was too fast. If the two children hadn't been placed on the edge of the explosion by Kagaya Ubuyashiki, even Chu Wuji wouldn't have been able to save them.
Chu Wuji snapped his fingers again, activating Blood Demon Art: Save Point, which respawned Ubuyashiki Amane, who had died at the center of the explosion, back into the Butterfly Mansion.
After doing all this, Chu Wuji waved to Shinobu Kocho and rushed into the sea of fire first: "Hurry up and go in, Muzan is still inside."
Shinobu Kocho, who was initially completely confused, instantly forgot all her questions upon hearing these words and flew out like an arrow.
----------
The edge of the explosion was still some distance from the Ubuyashiki residence, so Chu Wuji, who was the fastest, arrived at the center first.
As soon as Chu Wuji arrived in the center of the sea of fire, he witnessed the famous scene of Himejima Gyoumei transforming into an armed helicopter and smashing Muzan's head to pieces.
Muzan's flesh and blood surged from his neck like foam, instantly forming his skull and eyeballs.
His self-healing speed was much faster than Chu Wuji's.
However, this is to be expected. Chu Wuji's current self-healing speed relies entirely on stacking his [Essence] attribute talent and drinking clone rare blood. It is still somewhat inferior to Muzan's thousands of years of cannibalism.
The eyes, which had not yet grown eyelids, should have been focused on Beimingyu Xingming, but the pupils suddenly dilated the moment they swept over Chu Wuji.
"It's you!"
"It's me." Chu Wuji waved to Wu Can. "Long time no see."
Before he could finish speaking, Chu Wuji had already transformed into a bolt of lightning and disappeared from the spot.
"Nakome!!!"
As Muzan screamed in utter despair, the sound of a biwa (a traditional Chinese stringed instrument) inexplicably rang out in the air.
"Ding~"
A Japanese-style double sliding door appeared out of thin air at Chu Wuji's feet, but before it could be opened, Chu Wuji's figure had already left the area of the door.
"Ta-da!"
The urgent sound of the pipa opened door after door, but they couldn't even catch a glimpse of Chu Wuji.
Seeing the blade so close at hand, Muzan had no choice but to let Nakime take him into the Infinity Castle.
But he was still a step too late; he had already entered Chu Wuji's attack range!
The blade flashed like rain, striking a thousand times in an instant!
Am I... going to die here?
"Get out of here!!!"
Blood Demon Art: As soon as it was activated, a powerful shockwave that distorted vision erupted like lightning, centered on Muzan, and forcefully deflected Chu Wuji's slash slightly.
The aging drug hadn't taken effect yet when Muzan's shockwave even blew off half of Chu Wuji's body.
"Pfft!" Chu Wuji and Muzan coughed up blood at the same time. Muzan, who had been cut into several pieces, was about to smile when he discovered that Chu Wuji's injuries were also recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"The same to you!!?"
