Chapter 289 I Admit You're All Very Smart
When Kagaya Ubuyashiki said that he planned to perish together with his wife and Muzan, Ikuko noticed the calm expression on Amane Ubuyashiki's face.
This shows that they had long been prepared to die a heroic death.
Yuko wasn't questioning their awareness; she was simply hoping to save as many people as possible.
Even she herself felt that her idea was a bit too far-fetched.
“Of course I’ve thought about it…” Kagaya Ubuyashiki smiled naturally, not thinking that Ikuko’s idea was naive, but he sighed inwardly.
This person is indeed very kind.
As her husband recounted the scenes of their family that he had imagined, Ubuyashiki Amane's beautiful eyes widened slightly.
Yes, she had thought about it too.
Everyone successfully defeated Muzan, Kagaya-sama's curse was lifted, his eyesight was restored, and his health returned. The family happily chatted about the future with the Demon Slayer Corps.
Everyone, including Yuko, knows that these things are too idealistic, but everyone can't help but fantasize about them.
If only it were possible...
Yu Zi lowered her eyelids slightly: "Then don't always come up with ideas about mutual destruction."
"It's not about mutual destruction... cough cough..." Kagaya Ubuyashiki explained with a smile, "It's to create an opportunity for Ms. Tamayo to get close to Muzan."
Yu Zi's eyelids twitched, she glanced left and right, and said in a flat tone, "I see. You didn't consult me. Is this because you're afraid to see me?"
"I'll settle the score with that idiot woman later," Yu Zi muttered to herself.
I always feel like I owe the world something.
If only those idiots in power had this kind of awareness.
Yuko sighed inwardly.
"Cough cough." Kagaya Ubuyashiki couldn't help but cough twice, this time not as a curse, but because he couldn't help it.
"In short, these explosives are meaningless for killing Muzan," Yuko succinctly commented. "I dare not say that they can definitely kill Muzan, but they do have the ability to create opportunities for Tamayo to get close to Muzan."
She might even be able to force Muzan to inject those potions into her.
It was just a precaution, to prevent Muzan from being too wary.
She does have that much confidence.
The purpose of the gunpowder was to prevent Muzan from completing his super-speed regeneration, and to give him a big gift while he was weak.
But there's no need to risk the life of the Demon Slayer Corps leader for this.
At least that's how Yuko sees it.
"Furthermore, if you and Lady Tianyin both die prematurely, who will lead the final battle?"
If the battlefield were to be dragged into the Infinite Castle, where no one has any information, the only way to transmit information would be through Yushiro's Blood Demon Art.
The ability to discern this information is of paramount importance, and among the Demon Slayer Corps, only Ubuyashiki is capable of doing so.
“I’ve thought about this before,” Kagaya Ubuyashiki said weakly. “I’ll leave the command to Teruya.”
Yuko raised an eyebrow: "Kariji? Who is that?"
I feel like I've heard that somewhere before. Is this guy from the same clan?
Kagaya Ubuyashiki smiled and said, "My child."
Yuko glanced at the black-haired girl...the boy nodded slightly.
Yu Zi's face darkened: "If my eyes are not wrong, this child shouldn't be even ten years old yet, right?"
"Eight years old."
Yu Zi took a deep breath and said with a smile, "...I admit that your clan is indeed very talented in terms of intellect, but isn't this a bit too much?"
She had always known that this family was precocious; after all, one can only live for twenty or thirty years, and if one is not precocious, life will pass by unnoticed.
But even if you're precocious, you shouldn't let an eight-year-old command a battle, right?
Ubuyashiki Amane opened her mouth, about to explain.
Yuko raised her hand in refusal: "No need to mention it again. I'll go find Tamayo Ma now... and ask her clearly."
You mean to say you're looking for trouble, right?
The people present were secretly grumbling.
Yuko was genuinely a little angry.
Are all these people crazy?
She got up to walk outside, but before she could take two steps, she heard Kagaya Ubuyashiki speak in Tamayo's tone, calmly saying:
"Ms. Tamayo said that if Ikuko disagrees, then we should do as Ikuko says."
Yuko paused, then turned back.
She sat upright on the tatami mat.
"But then again, I also think there's a very high chance that Muzan will come to see you before the final battle."
"Just like you said, it's a grudge that's been going on for over a thousand years."
"Such a good opportunity for close contact may not come again."
Shinobu Kocho broke out in a cold sweat; the compromise had come far too quickly.
Two people.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki smiled and said, "Yes, it wouldn't be right not to send something to Muzan."
"Severely injure Muzan right here and weaken him."
Because Muzan has evolved to the point where he can only be killed by sunlight, the only option is to drag him out until the sun comes out.
If you can't kill an enemy, you have no better options than to restrict them.
Yuko nodded: "I'll come over as soon as Pillar's training is over."
"That will be troublesome." Kagaya Ubuyashiki responded softly, a memory unconsciously surfacing in his mind.
He recalled what Tamayo had said to him when she first joined the Demon Slayer Corps.
That was...
The laboratory that Miss Tamayo needed had just been built, and he and his wife came to visit her.
I also took the opportunity to visit Tamayo and ask her how she was doing here.
After some discussion, Kagaya Ubuyashiki became convinced that this person could bring more help to the Demon Slayer Corps and more hope to defeat Muzan.
But when they talked about Tanjiro, who had mastered the Breath of the Sun, Ms. Tamayo gave him a different answer.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki believed what Ikuko said about the hope of killing Muzan.
The breathing technique of the one who once drove Muzan to the brink of despair, the one that started the Breathing Technique.
They trusted the reassuring aura emanating from that boy.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki still remembers the situation very clearly.
This is what Ms. Tamayo said when they were talking about Tanjiro.
"Tanjiro?" Miss Tamayo seemed surprised by his topic. "Ikuko told you that, right?"
"She seemed to think highly of the child as well."
"It has inherited that swordsman's breathing technique, which is indeed worth paying attention to."
"That child is indeed very talented. He has no fear or disgust towards me or Yushiro, which is very rare."
"But I didn't choose to help the Demon Slayer Corps at this time because of that child."
