53, Taisho era

Over 100 years old.

Hazy's two maids, Chiyoko and Rina, have long since died.

He didn't even see them.

Because from the end of the Edo period, Hazo began to travel around the country alone at the age of dozens of years, and Chiyoko and Rina at that time were too old to accompany him like they did when they were younger. Therefore, almost all of them spend their time alone.

On the one hand, he used the cards to simply transform the number of ghosts, and on the other hand, he found the inheritors or the more talented juniors of the ghost killing team, and used the experience cards on them.

The increase in combat experience is also more conducive to the evolution of ghosts, or the swordsman to study the art of tuna.

Hao is also paying attention to the news of the prostitute Taro, for more than 40 years, the prostitute Taro and the fallen Ji have been hunting for the upper wind, but so far, the twelve ghost months have killed a lot, but only one jade pot has been killed in the upper wind. The jade pot became the upper wind at the end of the Edo period, earlier than the time when the prostitute Taro became a ghost, but it didn't come to prominence at first, so it was not noticed by Haki.

And because the jade pot became a ghost relatively early, he did not directly have in-depth exchanges and collisions with the ghost killing team and inheritors in the ten years of the last days, so his strength was much weaker.

It is also the reason why the prostitute Taro was able to find him and kill him.

As for the other four, they have all been honed all the way to where they are today... The strength is stronger than the original, and due to the complexity of the situation, it is also very cautious, and it is not easy for the prostitute Taro to find their traces.

Even the ghost killing team has been taking a few windings all these years, and there is no way to do it, Tong Mo and the others are very good at hiding.

However, now the miserable side already knows about the existence of the prostitute Taro.

Half a year ago, he even formed a group of subordinates to design a trap to capture the prostitute Taro, but it didn't work.

It was Tong Mo and Bantengu who were dispatched, and a few lower strings.

If it's a single wind, it may be devoured by the brother and sister of the prostitute Taro.

As for the situation in the world.

It's the Taisho era now.

The shogunate was overthrown... However, it is impossible for the inheritor to take advantage of anything.

It is still humans, not ghosts, who take over the power.

Therefore, for the inheritors, they are still very far from what they want to achieve.

The most important difference between the Taisho period and Edo was the political system.

One belongs to a centralized system, and the shogunate is whatever it wants, and the other promotes democracy, and power begins to decentralize... This also made many high-ranking officials lose their right to speak and be unable to speak. Naturally, he also lost the aura of a retainer of the shogunate, and he could no longer use some official maneuvers or gather information, but for him, these were no longer important.

The state of the world he wants to change, after decades of development, has long been finalized, and he does not need to interfere anymore.

And with the protection of the ghost slayer team in the back, it is extremely difficult for the inheritors to attack the upper echelons of the human race.

The people of this world have acquiesced, and even become accustomed to coexisting with ghosts.

There are two species in the world: ghosts and humans.

And human beings are undoubtedly the party that represents justice.

……

Sanyang Road.

An area not far from Kyoto.

At this time, a smoke-filled war had just ended.

The scene was very tragic, and at least hundreds of soldiers died.

The remaining survivors were uniformly dressed, and the style of clothing was very similar to the familiar 'modern' of Ha.

The most significant changes in the alternation of the times are reflected in clothing, food, housing and transportation, as well as the open-mindedness.

In addition to the traditional katana worn at the waist, there are also people who carry antique-style firearms.

This war is a game between humans and ghosts.

It's an official ghost hunting army, and after these people join the organization, they will be trained by the swordsmen of the ghost killing team... Has a certain ability to slay ghosts. Most of them know how to breathe, but they don't know how to breathe, and they don't belong to the Demon Slayer...

Tuna has become the core force of the Ghost Slayer Team.

As long as it's not a member of the ghost killing team, the Sanyashiki clan won't leak this method... Because the condition for entering the ghost killing team is to inherit the will.,Have a strong obsession with ghosts.。

And these civilian soldiers or some samurai, if they want to have power, they all want to have distracting thoughts.

Doesn't match the philosophy of the Demon Slayer.

The Sanyashiki clan also did not want this kind of power to 'bring chaos' to the peace of the world.

If it is said that the original Sanyashiki Hisano and Hideo are still unable to adapt to the situation caused by Hazy, especially the cooperation with the official... Now, after several generations of hard work and maintenance, the Ghost Slayer has finally found the balance of the world.

Strictly speaking, they are still separate from the authorities and do not interfere with each other... Cooperate by helping the official train soldiers and avoid the spread of ghosts.

Such cooperation was absolutely impossible in the hegemonic Edo period.

But in the more democratic Taisho era, there was not much trouble.

The conditions for killing ghosts are very harsh, and it is difficult to take advantage of relying solely on the basic breathing method, which involves the Forging Knife Village, and with the manpower of the Forging Knife Village, there is no way to cast the Wheel Knife on a large scale, and it is already very difficult for the knife caster to satisfy every member of the Ghost Killing Team.

So, the key to these soldiers being able to kill the ghosts in front of them is the weapon... Their weapon is not a Nichiren knife, but a new type of item.

Something called the Ghost Hand.

It's also a knife ... It has a certain restraining effect on the cells of the miserable, although it is not as powerful as the Nihon Knife, and it is enough to kill ordinary ghosts.

To put it simply, it is a weapon formed by a person who has made great achievements in the art of vomiting, using the internal circulation to transport internal breath into the cells, and then smelting it with his own blood when forging the sword. There are two main points to achieve this condition, one is timeliness, the ghost hand can kill ghosts for a long time, because the blood will disappear and dry up, which is different from existing in the human body. The second is the will, like the cell that suppresses the miserable, if you want to hit the ghost cell hard, you must have great faith and spiritual strength, otherwise you can't create a ghost hand at all.

This shows that after so much time, the inheritance will of the Ghost Slayer Team has become more amazing.

Because the situation they face is also completely different from the plot of the original book.

The Ghost Slayer has also evolved over the years, otherwise how can it compete with the inheritors and Wu Miao?

That's what Hao wanted to achieve in the first place.

He heard that several of the pillars of the Ghost Slayer Team had already reached the level of 'Penetrating the World' through Tuna.

Zebra, the knife, the transparent world... All appeared in advance.

It also includes the Ghost Hand, a resource that does not exist in the Demon Slayer World.

This situation is exactly what Hao has been trying to promote...

But for now, it's not enough.

He wants more than that.

"Sir!"

The soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield in an orderly manner, when a swordsman suddenly noticed a figure walking slowly in the dark night in the distance.

couldn't help but be surprised, and suddenly turned his head to report to his boss.

Everyone immediately drew their swords and waited for the battle.

Before the battle began, the army had already been prepared and briefed, and there would be no irrelevant people.

Even if it's just a figure... It's also likely to be a ghost.

What they eliminated this time was the power of the inheritors to whom they belonged, not the unmiserable subordinates.

Unlike the inheritors, the ghosts controlled by Wu Miao are basically alone and do not form groups.

"Old man?"

However, when the officer who led the team saw the face of the comer, he immediately frowned.

This is an old man with gray hair and thin bones, but his appearance and skin are very young, and although there are wrinkles on his face, there are not many.

Especially those shining eyes, it seems that there is no old-fashioned, but full of energy.

"This outfit..."

As if remembering something, the officer's pupils shrank and murmured.

The other party was wearing a black haori, and he was wearing a samurai uniform with a sense of age, which is rare today, and he stepped on clogs.

Although people wear two-toothed clogs nowadays, they are generally worn at home or during the New Year's holidays, and only put on their feet when the layman is on a short trip. Moreover, the clogs worn by the old man are the kind of thick and heavy plates, and it is extremely rare to see straw sandals or cloth shoes that are not derived from clogs.

"Black Haori... Are you the god of imperial martial arts? ”

The officer then lost his voice in shock.

Hearing this, the surrounding soldiers were also stunned.

The god of imperial martial arts is a legend.

It is said that the best samurai among the human race will be favored by the god of Gokenmu, and will be able to gain great power.

No one knows the origin of the god of imperial martial arts, or even what his identity is, whether he is a human or a god...

I only know that if I meet him, it means an opportunity.

To this day, even many samurai worship the god of Gokenmu, praying for this 'creation'.

The reason why the god of Yu Jianwu is so famous is because in this era of ghosts, there are many strong people in the human race who have been enlightened by this god are still alive, and a lot of information has been passed out of their mouths... Many of them are even regarded as 'ghost slaying heroes'.

Hazy walked up to the officer step by step, who was already flushed with excitement and knelt down instantly.

The soldiers around him didn't even dare to breathe.

Apparently, their ruler was chosen by God.

"Take your mission to slay ghosts and become stronger..."

Hao has long been accustomed to the name of the former.

He said indifferently.

Immediately after, an extra card appeared on the fingertip and disappeared into a streamer.

Of course, this magical scene is invisible to others.

The officer who was affected by the experience card suddenly exploded his brain, and a huge amount of information and pictures merged into the sea of knowledge.

When he recovered his spirits and came to his senses, the old man in front of him was gone.

There are only envious or excited glances cast from the vicinity...

"Divine power... It's really a divine power..."

The officer swallowed and said in disbelief.

He clearly felt the change in himself.
