MTL - I Copy Under One Punch-Chapter 21 Target——Ghost Killing Squad Headquarters (for collection)
Chapter 21 Goal—Ghost Killing Squad Headquarters (for collection)
"I am the light of righteousness and the bane of evil. I wander around the world, cleaning up the filth in the world. My name is Aomori, and I am a hero who happened to pass by."
"So handsome!" To Aomori's surprise, Tanjiro and Tomioka Yoshiyuki's eyes sparkled and they expressed sincere admiration after hearing such remarks.
"In order to eradicate evil, endure loneliness and suffer the pain of leaving home for decades, how noble these are!" Tanjiro wiped his eyes, he was moved by his own brain power.
"Going on the road alone and facing the attack of evil spirits alone, is that why you are so powerful? No wonder you can defeat Wu Mi." Tomioka Yoshiyuki clenched his fists, his eyes sparkled, as if he had found the right way to become stronger .
"Well, almost." Aomori coughed twice, bringing the topic back to the right track: "As I mentioned just now, because Wuyou escaped, he might send his evil spirits here, so it's not safe here. Tanjiro, you and your family better get out of here with me and find a safe place."
"Agreed." Tomioka Yoshiyuki also agreed, "Just in case, you can't be too careful for safety."
"Yeah!" Tanjiro nodded fiercely, "I'll talk to my mother right now."
Seeing Tanjiro turn back to the house, Aomori said: "The safest place is the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Squad. I want you to take us there. I just want to talk to your lord about hunting Ghost Mai Tsuji. thing."
"Hunting Ghost Dance Tsuji Mucan?" Tomioka Yoshiyuki took a deep breath and said, "The headquarters is the most important place for the Ghost Slayer Squad. Even if I am Mizujo, I have no right to bring outsiders there. I have to report to the Lord first."
"It's okay, let's report. If I remember him, I must be able to see something by now."
"?" Tomioka Yoshiyuki didn't know, so he was stunned for a while, then called back his own crow, briefly wrote down what happened here, and sent the crow back to the headquarters.
After thinking about it, Tomioka Yoshiyuki said again: "I'll go to the town and hire a carriage. It's still quite far from the headquarters."
Aomori nodded slightly, watched Yoshiyuki Tomioka leave, and sat cross-legged on the ground.
Concentrating, emptying his mind, and closing his eyes, Aomori "sees" a gray and white world.
Except for the single color, this world perfectly matches the real world.
Aomori's perspective glanced over Absolu and Bibi Bird beside him, passed through the wooden house, saw Tanjiro talking with his family, and extended outward, saw Yoshiyuki Tomioka walking through the forest.
Quickly passed him, Aomori's perspective extended to the distance until he couldn't move.
This is a new skill [Mind Eye] that Aomori learned during the battle with Wu Mi, which can replace the naked eye to detect distant scenes.
This skill is the key to recapturing Wu Mi who is hiding.
Afterwards, Aomori tried the upward and downward directions again, until he was in a trance and could not persist.
‘The detection range on the ground is about a hemisphere with a radius of 200 meters. The underground seems to be blocked by the soil, and the detection range is only a quarter of that on the ground. Persist for about 10 minutes. '
In this case, one or two days is enough for Aomori to fully detect a small town, and it is only a matter of time before Wu Mi is found.
The next step is how to control Wu Mi so that he cannot escape.
Aomori raised his head to face the sun, closed his eyes slightly, and fell into deep thought.
Tanjiro's mother is reasonable, facing Tanjiro's words, she agreed without thinking.
"Tanjirou is a good boy, I believe in you, everything you do is for our own good, right?"
Tanjiro nodded vigorously with moist eyes.
Half a day later, Tanjiro's family had packed up, and it happened that Tomioka Yoshiyuki hired a large carriage from the town to come back.
Everyone put heavy objects into the carriage, Nezuko got into it with his mother and younger siblings, Tanjiro rode on Absolu like yesterday, Tomioka Yoshiyuki sat in front of the carriage, side by side with the driver.
Seeing that everyone has already sat down, Tomioka Yoshiyuki said to the uncle driver: "Let's go."
"Okay, everyone, sit still! Drive!" the uncle coachman shouted, swung his whip and slapped the horse's buttocks, and the two old horses neighed and took a step forward.
In the air, Bibi bird spreads its wings and flies high.
Tanjiro looked back at the wooden house, it was the place that carried all his memories, and when he was about to leave, the emotion of reluctance kept pouring out from the bottom of his heart.
"When Wu dies tragically, you can come back here. Soon." Aomori came over to comfort him.
"Well, I understand." Tanjiro restrained his reluctance, and returned to the original hot-blooded boy, raised his right hand and shouted: "Come on, Absol, catch up with mom and the others!"
"Lu!" Absolu ran forward with the wind under his feet.
"Hahahaha." Tanjiro spread his hands, enjoying the baptism of the wind.
"Ah, Tanjirou-san is so cunning, I want to ride a dog too."
"Me too, me too."
"Wait, I have to ask Absol."
Laughing and laughing along the way, like a family going on a trip, Aomori jogging and exercising behind him, unconsciously showing a little smile.
As night fell, the Aomori group failed to reach the next town, so they had to sleep in the wild.
The weather was cold, Yoshiyuki Tomioka and Tanjiro gathered some dry firewood and started a fire. Together with the clothes and quilts they brought, they were not afraid of freezing.
Aomori used his mind to catch a few hibernating snakes and gave everyone extra meals.
After eating and drinking, Tomioka Yoshiyuki asked Aomori about swordsmanship.
"I know that I am weak, completely unworthy of the title of Water Column, and useless in the operation of killing Wu Mi. Therefore, I want to become stronger, even if I have a little more winning percentage."
As a water column, Tomioka Giyuu actually feels inferior in his heart, but the desire for revenge surpasses everything else. He wants to do more to atone for his weak and cowardly self.
Aomori nodded: "Okay."
There were outsiders, and the two of them couldn't use it well, so they went to a place a little further away under the pretext of fetching water.
Tanjiro watched Aomori and the two leave, and originally wanted to follow along curiously, but seeing Nezuko and the others beside him, he decided to stay.
‘Brother Aomori and Mr. Tomioka are not here, so I have to watch carefully here. '
Ever since he knew that there were evil creatures like oni, Tanjiro was always worried that his family would be hurt, and even had nightmares during his nap in the afternoon.
In my dream, I didn’t meet Brother Aomori, and chose to stay overnight in the town. When I returned home the next day, I found my mother and Nezuko lying in a pool of blood.
After waking up from the nightmare, Tanjiro was extremely grateful to have met Aomori, he was even more grateful to him, and he valued the safety of his family even more.
‘Dad, I will definitely protect Mommy and the others. ’ Tanjiro swore firmly again.
"Lu." Absolu gently pushed Tanjirou with his head.
Tanjiro smiled and touched Absol: "Yes, you are still here, Absol, I don't worry anymore."
"Bibi!" Standing on the roof of the carriage, Bibi bird fluttered its wings and called arrogantly.
"Yes, Bibi Bird is also great."
Being interrupted by Absol and Bibi, Tanjirou felt a lot relieved. He looked in the direction where Aomori and the two left, thinking about whether he should learn swordsmanship or not.
Happy weekend everyone! Just ask for a recommendation ticket and a monthly ticket.
