Chapter 91

"Water Breathing·Fourth Form·Tide!"

Under the sunlight, the surface of the wooden sword glowed with a pale blue light, and the endless tide-like attacks came at Shinichi from all directions.

Facing this powerful move of Tomioka Giyuu, the originally lazy Shinichi had to pay a little attention. He clenched the wooden sword in his right hand and grabbed a shorter wooden sword in his left hand.

"Forest Breathing·Thirteenth Form·Niten Ichiryu·Wolf Soul!"

The endless light formed a green giant wolf, roaring and crashing into the endless tide.

The shadow of the sword flickered, and the ground was cut into gullies one after another. The air waves raised by the two people were wrapped in a lot of smoke and dust, making it difficult to see the specific situation of the fight.

Beside the open space where Tomioka Giyuu and Shinichi fought, there were also two petite figures watching nervously.

There were two figures, one was Shinobu Kocho who was frowning with her arms crossed, and the other was a girl wearing a team uniform, with dark green medium-length hair, and a very gentle and lovely appearance. Her green eyes were full of worry when she looked at the fight between Giyuu and Shinichi.

Her name was Makomo, and she was also the senior sister of Giyuu Tomioka and Santo. When Makomo learned about the final selection of Fujiki Mountain, she was very worried and found her junior brother Giyuu. Sure enough, Giyuu had changed a little after this incident.

He became silent. Every time Makomo looked for him and hoped to write a letter with him to greet the master and Santo or go back to Sagari Mountain, Giyuu always found an excuse to escape. He seemed to be afraid to face Santo.

But correspondingly, Tomioka Giyuu also became the most dazzling one among the swordsmen of that session, growing at an astonishing speed. Within a year, when the swordsmen of the same period were still hovering at the Geng-class and Xin-class levels, he had become a rare A-class swordsman like a rocket, and even killed more than 30 evil spirits.

Such an excellent performance made Shinkomo proud of Tomioka Giyuu, but also very worried about his situation, because Tomioka Giyuu, whose personality had changed, had a habit after joining the Demon Slayer Corps.

Whenever he had time, he would take a knife to challenge Morihashi Shinichi, and he would not say anything regardless of winning or losing. If Shinichi did not agree, he would stand outside the door of Shinichi's family with a wooden sword until late at night or when he left for a mission.

When Tomioka Giyuu came to challenge Shinichi when he was still a Gui-class swordsman, everyone would secretly laugh at him for overestimating his own abilities, but it has continued to this day, and even the most mean people will admire his perseverance.

Take back the words and turn your eyes back to the scene of the fight.

Crack! Cough! The sound of a wooden sword breaking and a muffled groan were clearly heard by Shinobu Kocho and Shinkomo, and the outcome was already decided.

As expected, when the smoke and dust cleared, Giyu Tomioka was leaning on the broken wooden sword with one hand and covering his chest with the other hand, panting violently, and his hair and uniform were wet with sweat.

On the other hand, Shinichi, who looked like nothing had happened, carried the wooden sword and walked straight to Giyu Tomioka, and took the initiative to extend his hand, "You fought well, you have improved."

The outcome was obvious.

Seeing that Giyu was not injured, Shinkomo was relieved, and Shinobu Kocho next to her had a calm expression. Although she thought that Shinichi had many shortcomings, she was very sure of his strength in terms of strength.

However, Giyu Tomioka's progress was also obvious. At least when he fought with Shinichi a year ago, Shinichi had never taken the initiative to use the double sword style. It was already amazing to force Shinichi to use the double swords seriously.

Tomioka Giyu ignored Shinichi's outstretched hand, stood up in silence, and said coldly after a long while, "I lost."

Shinichi has heard this sentence "I lost" 35 times, no, it should be 36 times including this time.

Shinichi retracted his outstretched hand and looked at the black-haired boy in front of him with some emotion. Sometimes, you can't judge a person by appearance. I didn't expect that the boy who was not very eye-catching at the beginning had such great potential.

Tomioka Giyu, who lost, grabbed the broken wooden sword and turned to leave. He was always so straightforward. Seeing Giyu was about to leave, Shinkomo hurried over, first bowed respectfully to Shinichi, and then asked Giyu if he was okay.

However, facing the senior sister who cared about him, Tomioka Giyu was also very cold, and only said two words occasionally.

Shinichi dropped his wooden sword and shouted at Tomioka Giyuu's back: "Tomioka Giyuu! Don't come over here again! Wait until you become a pillar before you challenge me. Remember! You are just this short of the barrier now!"

Tomioka Giyuu paused for a moment, but finally left Shinichi's house steadily.

"Stinky boy!" Shinichi said unhappily. Shinobu Kocho also walked to his side, looked at Tomioka Giyuu's back, and then looked at Shinichi again, "Hey, Shinichi, will he listen?Didn't you say something similar? But he still insisted on challenging you."

Shinichi smiled and handed the wooden sword in his hand to Shinobu Kocho, "This time is different. From the fight just now, I can see that his water breathing has not reached its peak. He should have felt it himself. Mr. Urokodaki and I have discussed that Santo is the best inheritor of water breathing, but Tomioka Giyuu will be the new guide of water breathing."

Shinobu Kocho looked at the somewhat lonely figure, raised her head slightly, and snorted softly, "My sister will definitely become a pillar before that guy! "

Indeed, the two most famous swordsmen in the Demon Slayer Corps recently, in addition to Tomioka Giyuu, the other is Kocho Kanae, Shinobu Kocho's sister. With her ultimate mastery of Flower Breathing, Kanae has also completed quite a few tasks while leading the Butterfly House, killing more than 40 evil spirits. She is also the A-class swordsman with the greatest hope of becoming the next pillar.

Shinichi tilted his head and looked at Kocho Shinobu, and asked with a smile: "Is that so, Shinobu? But I think that although Kanae is powerful, she always spends extra time trying to make friends with evil spirits, so she may not become a pillar before Giyuu."

"Huh? ! Shinichi Mu, that's too much, how can you say that? Obviously, our relationship is closer to you, okay? You actually speak for outsiders!" Kocho Shinobu protested.

Shinichi held back his laughter and teased: "Really? Then can you help me, let Kanae and I stay together for a while, every time we chat, you come over, so we don't have a chance to chat. "

"What!? No!" The excited Kocho Shinobu was like a hedgehog with its hair standing on end.

Shinichi couldn't help it and burst into laughter.

In fact, Shinichi and Kanae had already seen Kocho Shinobu's misunderstanding, but they didn't care and just laughed it off, treating it as a child's thoughts.

At least so far, Shinichi has only seen the Kocho sisters as friends and sisters, and Kanae also sees Shinichi as a trustworthy friend. There is no such feeling between the two as Kocho Shinobu misunderstood.

However, it is fun to tease children occasionally, so neither Shinichi nor Kanae explained it to Shinobu, so Shinobu still has such a misunderstanding in her mind until now.
