Chapter 171 Kyojuro's Teachings
After Nanako left, the room suddenly became quiet. Inosuke lay on the bed blankly, looking at the ceiling, and kept mumbling.
"That woman, why... why did she become stronger again? Damn it, she became so strong in just three days!"
Feeling the dull pain coming from his abdomen, Inosuke couldn't help but clenched his fists. ♦♦ ♦♦
"Inosuke, are you okay?"
Tanjiro came over and asked.
"Tanjiro, what can he do? Girls are pursuing him. He may not be happy! Damn it, why does someone like this guy? I don't have a girlfriend yet!"
Zenitsu shouted.
"Shut up, you soft-footed shrimp! I'm not...wait, what did you just say, you like me?"
Inosuke was about to get angry, but he quickly reacted and stopped the fist hanging in the air.
"Tanjiro, look, look, there are people who like this guy with such a bad temper, why don't I!"
Zenitsu cried while hiding behind Tanjiro.
"Tell me again, what do you like about me?"
Inosuke suppressed his anger and cursed.
"It's Nanako, she's so kind to you, can't you feel it?"
Zenitsu said, rolling his eyes.
"What is love? Tell me quickly, soft-footed shrimp!"
Inosuke grabbed Zenitsu's collar and stared at Zenitsu fiercely.
Zenitsu felt terrified in his heart when he stared at him, and said tremblingly: "It's just...it's...the love between men and women...just like your father and mother, they only love each other to give birth to you..."
"But I don't have a father or a mother, I only have a mother!"
Inosuke said as he recalled the wild boar mother who had nursed him.
"Are you lying to me?"
Inosuke's boar hood spurted a stream of heat onto Zenitsu's face.
> "Let me go, I can't explain it to you. I like what I just said. I didn't lie to you!"
Zenitsu slapped Inosuke's hand away and quickly hid behind Tanjiro.
"Okay, okay, Inosuke, don't embarrass Zenitsu."
Tanjiro persuaded at this time.
"I don't want to like it, I want to become stronger, the strongest in the world!!!"
"Whether they are women or men, I will beat them down one by one!"
"And that woman, I must take revenge and fight her back! Take off her pussy! Let her see how powerful I am, hahahaha!"
Inosuke stood on the bed with his hands on his hips and yelled.
"Kamamon boy, come here!"
At this time, Purgatory Xingjulang spoke.
"Hey, Mr. Purgatory, what's the matter?"
Tanjiro and the other three immediately became quiet and moved closer to Anjuro's bedside.
"I'm so happy for you to see the bond between the three of you!"
Anjuro smiled.
"I remembered something from a dream. You can go to Purgatory's house where I was born. There are notes left by Yanzhu of the past generations. My father used to read those notes often, because I didn't read them. I’ve passed it before, so I don’t know the content…”
"As for the clues you mentioned about the God of Fire Kagura, there may be records in the notes..."
"Note... Do you want me to go to your house with you?"
Tanjiro asked.
"Yes, maybe the clue you want about the God of Fire Kagura is there, what you really want to know
If you say so, you can come back to my home with me! "
Anjuro said.
"Also, Kamado boy, your sister Nezuko, I agree that she is a member of the Demon Slayer Corps. I saw blood on the train, trying to protect humans, risking her life to fight evil spirits, and protecting humans. She, no matter what others say, is still a member of the Demon Slayer Squad. She must live with her heart in mind and become stronger! "
Tanjiro's eyes widened and tears continued to fall.
"Mr. Purgatory, thank you, thank you for recognizing my sister..."
At this moment, Tanjiro seemed to have been redeemed in his heart, and his original sense of inferiority towards the members of the Demon Slayer Corps who fought with him as a ghost sister was released. 🄲
"No matter how weak and useless I am, no matter how hard I hit you, I will burn your hearts. Grit your teeth and move forward. Keep getting stronger, keep moving forward, protect your sister, and protect all humans who are weaker than you. !”
"As a strong man, it is natural to be a shield for the younger generation. Therefore, since I am the pillar, no one will make the same choice. I cannot let the younger generation lose it, even if it means sacrificing my life!"
"So don't feel guilty because I lost my arms!"
"Kamado boy, pig-headed boy and yellow boy, you must continue to work hard. I believe that in the near future, you will become the pillar supporting the Demon Slayer Squad. I believe in you! I believe in you from the bottom of my heart!"
Tanjiro was reduced to tears, while Inosuke and Zenitsu were trembling.
"Just like my mother said to me, the responsibility of the born strong is to protect the weak. You cannot use the talents given by God to harm others or enrich your own pockets. Your talents are very powerful. I believe in you. You can do it better than I can!”
"Mr. Purgatory!"
<
br> Tanjiro yelled, lying next to the bed and crying loudly!
"When we were fighting against that ghost, it was Mr. Purgatory who tried his best to protect our safety..."
Zenitsu said choked with sobs.
"Mr. Rengoku, who is so powerful... lost his arms to protect us and became an ordinary person... Why would an upper-rank demon go there..."
"God is so unfair..."
"It's all my fault... Senior Brother Fengyu has taught me everything and given me the strength to defeat the Twelve Demon Moons, but I didn't make good use of it. It's all my fault... I haven't made any progress and haven't achieved the task assigned by Senior Brother Fengyu..."
"Can I... really become as powerful as Mr. Rengoku and Senior Brother Fengyu..."
Tanjiro cried.
"It's okay, Kamado boy, you still have a long way to go. As long as you don't give up, you can reach this point!"
Kyojuro comforted.
"It's the same for you. The strong become stronger step by step. No one can reach the sky in one step. In this process, we will encounter many things, but as long as we don't give up on ourselves and stick to our original purpose of becoming stronger, we can continue to be strong!"
"Stop making a fuss. Why are you crying? Since he said we can do it, we can definitely do it!"
Inosuke shouted.
"Hahaha, yes, we need to have the confidence of the pig-headed boy!"
Kyojuro laughed. In them, he saw his past self. He had asked himself countless times whether he could become as powerful as his father. But when he thought of what his mother said, even if he studied the book of Breath of Flame alone without anyone to teach him, he could step by step reach the strength to fight against the upper demons.
