Chapter 171: Sun Halo Dragon Head Dance "Deal with all of us?" Upon hearing Riezel's bold statement, all the demons first exchanged glances, then, except for Sekido and Aizetsu, they all laughed heartily. "I mean, do you even understand your situation right now?" Daki was the first to mock. "Although you don't look bad, you're being a bit too optimistic, aren't you?" "Interesting, that's quite a bold statement." Karaku even clapped his hands "Facing three Upper Ranks, a mere human dares to speak such bold words, it's amusing!" Meanwhile, flying in the air, Urogi burst into laughter. "I know you, Tsugikuni Yoriichi, you defeated Akaza not long ago and chopped off his head, right? So, you think you can defeat us, who are beneath him in number, just because you handled the Upper Three?" Urogi chuckled. "If that's really what you think, then it's indeed amusing!" "Indeed, solely based on strength alone, Akaza surpasses any one of us here. If you can defeat him, naturally, you can defeat us." Karaku chimed in. "But let's not forget, you're not facing just one Upper Rank, but three. Whether you can deal with us or not, it's simply impossible." Urogi continued. "Do you think we're like Akaza, dead just because our heads got chopped off?" Sekido, gripping his tin staff, glared angrily. "Having such naive thoughts is truly infuriating!" "Indeed, when it comes to survival capability, whether it's us four, Gyokko, or even Gyuutarou and Daki, we all surpass Akaza..." Aizetsu shook his head, sighing. "Although Gyokko was almost killed by you, saying you could deal with us is truly nonsense. Failing to recognize this reality, as a mere human, is truly sad." Listening to their mockery and sarcasm, both Kagaya and Kyoujurou felt a sinking feeling. Riezel also knew that these demons could indeed speak with confidence like this. After all, solely by survival capability, Akaza truly couldn't compare to these three Upper Ranks. For Gyokko, even though he had just narrowly avoided being killed by Riezel, generally, with scales harder than diamond, he could block a hit from a Nichirin Sword and could even shatter it. Not to mention, even if someone's strength surpassed his, he could just retreat into his vase and teleport to another one. Gyuutarou and Daki were the same. Although they were only Upper Six, the lowest among the Upper Ranks, especially Daki, whose strength couldn't even be compared to any Upper Rank, and at most, she was just slightly stronger than a Lower Rank, as siblings, they were demons symbiotic with each other. Killing one of them wouldn't work; only by simultaneously beheading both of them could they be killed. On the other hand, Hantengu and his clones were even more troublesome. Not only could they not be killed even if beheaded, but when they were beheaded, they only grew stronger as the number of their clones increased. In terms of survival capability, Upper Five Gyokko, as well as Upper Six Gyuutarou and Daki, could not be compared to Upper Four Hantengu. In terms of strength, they couldn't match Akaza, but solely based on survival capability, Akaza truly couldn't match them. Of course, it seemed like Akaza had also achieved a breakthrough in his power since, according to Tamayo, after he was beheaded by Riezel, he should still be alive. Perhaps his survival capability was now no weaker than these three, maybe even stronger. But at least, before this, Akaza was relatively 'fragile' compared to these three. As long as someone's strength could overpower him, they could kill him. In contrast, these three Upper Ranks wouldn't be easily killed even if their strength were overwhelmed by someone. Moreover, as long as they did not die, they could just drag the battle out until their enemy tired, and they would emerge as the victors. "We won't get tired!" "Our lives are infinite!" "We'll regenerate even if we're injured!" "Fragile humans can't possibly win against us in the darkness!" Karaku, Sekido, Aizetsu, and Urogi spoke successively, their words dripping with superiority and arrogance. "In this world, no human can fight against multiple Upper Ranks, let alone emerge victorious." Daki remarked, tilting her head while grinning widely. "Though I don't know why Lord Muzan values you so much, if you think defeating Akaza makes you superior, then you're a fool." *Whoosh!* *Whoosh!* *Whoosh!* Perhaps bolstered by their comrades' words, Gyokko, covered in burns and scars, struggled to rise, emitting a burst of harsh laughter. "Hyo, hyo, hyo! That's right! A mere human can't possibly defeat three Upper Ranks alone. We'll drag you down until you're nothing but a lifeless corpse before the sun rises!" Gyokko exclaimed with glee. Clearly, the attacks from the four clone demons were incredibly powerful. Coupled with Gyuutarou's attack, they tore through the earth, lifting, destroying, and ravaging everything in their path, engulfing countless stones, debris, and dust storms. The entire Ubuyashiki Estate seemed to be struck by a natural disaster, with lightning flashing, wild winds raging, shockwaves, soundwaves, and blood-red blades dancing wildly, lifting the mansion's roofs and shattering its walls, swallowing even Daki's sashes. "Master!" Kyoujurou, witnessing this disastrous scene, had no time to think and rushed to Kagaya, shielding him. "Ugh!" Shinobu could only protect herself, crouching on the ground and shielding her head, before being blown away entirely. Facing this disastrous scene, humans indeed felt small and insignificant. Even those revered as Hashira would feel the same. Amidst such a disastrous attack, Gyokko's attack seemed rather inconspicuous. "Blood Demon Art - Killer Fish Scales!" Gyokko, at an astonishing speed, repeatedly jumped amidst the disastrous scene, using his smooth scales to make his movements unpredictable, heading toward Riezel's direction. He didn't unleash any spectacular attacks like the others but instead, concealed within the disastrous attack, reached out his hands toward Riezel. If anyone wondered why he used his hands, it was simply because they could turn anything they touched into fish, which was Gyokko's hidden killing move. In this way, Riezel simultaneously faced the killing moves of seven demons and was instantly engulfed by them. 'We won!' All the demons witnessed this scene, confirming it in their hearts— Until a blaze appeared—a dazzling blaze. *Whoosh!* Like a fiery dragon, it first emerged amidst the disastrous attack, then, as if dancing, tore through the air at an astonishing speed and roamed extremely fast through the courtyard. Many demons only saw a sudden burst of sparks before the fiery dragon had already danced around them, leaving behind a dazzling trail in the crumbling courtyard as if frolicking around them in a circle. A moment later, Riezel appeared in the center of the blaze, transformed into the head of the fiery dragon. With a sword emitting fierce flames in his hand, Riezel halted his dancing figure as he arrived behind the group of demons. Soon, the fire dragons that had danced across the courtyard slowly dissipated into the air. Everything froze in this second. "Sun Breathing - Eleventh Form..." Riezel's voice faintly rang in the silent courtyard. "Sun Halo Dragon Head Dance." As his voice fell, Riezel sheathed his sword. *Click!* *Splurt—!* One by one, heads flew into the air, blood spattering everywhere.
