Chapter 65 - 65: Healing Ripple Regarding Jotaro, Uzui Tengen knew very little. The unexpected defeat of Sanemi Shinazugawa shocked him immensely. An evil demon whose strength was unknown in depth, along with two muddle-headed rebellious teammates, at present, the situation was extremely unfavorable to him. Without much thought, the moment Shinazugawa fell, he made a decision. The urgent task was to eliminate the demon with a thunderous speed that catches even the ears off guard. Thinking this, he grabbed his blades and instantly charged out, to the point where the exclamations of Shinobu Kocho and Giyu were not heard by him at all. "Uzui-san!" Shinobu wanted to stop him, but it was already too late. In her view, continuing the fight would only cause unnecessary losses and held no meaning. Uzui Tengen, holding his dual blades, originally moved at extremely fast speed, but on the way of approaching Nezuko, instead slowed down. To be honest, Sanemi Shinazugawa fell too fast, he simply didn't know what had happened. So now he proceeded cautiously, intending first to test the opponent's depth. Just as he raised his blade preparing to slash down, from the pitch-black night sky came the loud cawing of a Kasugai crow. "Urgent message! Urgent message! Bring back Kujo Jotaro, Nezuko who turned into a demon, and also Tanjiro and the others to headquarters." "Oyakata-sama!" Uzui Tengen's movements halted. Nezuko, who turned into a demon, was it the small one in front of him? Did this mean she must not be killed? Just as he was thinking about this, the fist of Star Platinum's golden star already struck heavily onto his face. "ORA!" The massive force made his face instantly deform. A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out. The dazed and unaware Uzui Tengen was seriously injured and fell to the ground. This punch's power was even heavier than the one used to strike Sanemi. During the search for Muzan's clues being interrupted, Jotaro couldn't help but feel furious. However, this couldn't entirely be blamed on Uzui Tengen. In front of Jotaro, that demon girl naturally didn't dare to reveal any flaws. But after he left, she thought of ways to escape. The iron box that bound her, and the outer chains, looked very sturdy, but her Blood Demon Art could seep through the iron box's gaps to the outside. When Uzui Tengen arrived, her entire body was almost out. Seeing a demon at the important Butterfly Mansion, he immediately attempted to slash the opponent down. He had no idea this demon was of great importance. Oyakata-sama's orders arrived just in time, and Shinobu felt relieved. Although quite a few swordsmen were injured, besides the Wind Hashira and the Sound Hashira, Jotaro didn't go heavy-handed on the others at all. All this could have been avoided, but Shinazugawa was too impatient and simply did not give her a chance to explain. However, she could also understand him. The mission of the Demon Slayer Corps was to kill demons. If she hadn't personally seen Nezuko overcome her desire to eat humans, she probably would have acted the same. If someone tried to stop her from killing a demon, she too would have drawn her blade. She sighed, crouched down, and seriously began examining Sanemi's injuries. Looking at the shocking wounds on his palm and body, she let out another light sigh. "With injuries this severe, even for Shinazugawa-san, I'm afraid it'll take half a month to recover." Of course, this was under the premise of her administering medicine. Just as she planned to help Shinazugawa up, Jotaro's tall figure suddenly stepped between her and him. "Mr. Jotaro?" She blinked in slight confusion. "Step aside." Jotaro half-knelt down, one hand supporting Shinazugawa, and golden ripples flowed from his palm into Shinazugawa's body. Ripple energy could heal some simple wounds and also relieve pain. A warm sensation filled the entire body, Sanemi's tightly shut eyes twitched slightly and then opened in a daze. Seeing this, Jotaro immediately let go and tossed him to the side. Having no personal grudges with Shinazugawa, he didn't need to go too hard on him, but Shinazugawa's tenacious spirit even made him admire him. He understood this kind of person, if you don't completely defeat them, even if they have a sliver of strength left, they will stand up again. Using full strength to knock down this kind of person is not an insult, but respect. Ripple flowed through the body, Sanemi, now clear-headed, felt a strange sensation. The wounds on his skin were scabbing over at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, after reaching a certain point, the healing stopped. "What is this!?" Seeing this miraculous scene, Shinobu was extremely surprised. "Mr. Jotaro, could this also be the ability of Star Platinum?" Possessing overwhelming destructive power, and still being able to heal the wounded, wasn't such a person exactly what the Demon Slayer Corps needed? Ask yourself, who wouldn't love a healer who can also deal damage. She had already made up her mind to have Jotaro stay in the Demon Slayer Corps. "No, this is Ripple," Jotaro replied flatly. "Ripple? Not a Stand ability?" Shinobu asked curiously. Jotaro replied, "Ripple is very similar to the Breathing Techniques. Both are methods that utilize breathing to make the human body produce great power." However, compared to the Breathing Techniques that only pursue destructive power, Ripple's development of the human body is clearly more refined. Sanemi Shinazugawa suddenly widened his eyes. Compared to the external injuries, what surprised him more was the change inside his body. Though Breathing Techniques could enhance cell activity and allow the body to surpass its limits, this method comes at the cost of damaging cells. It could be said that inside his body, many cells were already overwhelmed. The stronger the swordsman, the more obvious this condition became. However, under the effect of Ripple, those weakened cells inside his body regained vitality. Though heavily wounded, he had a strong feeling, if he now used Breathing Techniques, the techniques he released would definitely be much stronger than before. Shinobu, skilled in pharmacology and toxicology, also had top-tier medical knowledge. She sharply sensed the changes in Sanemi's body. Although Sanemi wasn't very old, the moment Ripple flowed into his body, Shinobu clearly felt that he became younger and more vigorous. "Compared to Breathing Techniques which squeeze life force, Ripple is more like the wonderful rhythm of life energy." After using Ripple frequently these past days, Jotaro had developed some of his own unique insights. Shinobu remained silent. With her excellent medical skills, how could she not know the damage Breathing Techniques did to the body? But to fight demons, they had no other choice. ═❀═❀═❀═❀═❀═❀═ patreon.com/XenosX ????Joining Patreon keeps me motivated and eager to work diligently, so please consider joining.????
