Naomi's P. O. V:

A Hashira with his white hair in a ponytail muses, "I heard he was a demon slayer with a demon in tow. I was expecting someone with more flare. But it's just some ordinary looking kid. Too bad." That's Tengen Uzui, the Sound Hashira.

Kyojurou Rengoku, the Flame Hashira, says, "We must see that this boy is put on trial to be judged! So it must be!"

"What... who are these people...?" Tanjiro gasps before the Kakushi presses his head to the cobbles.

"Don't open your mouth until you're told! Do you know who you're in the presence of?! These are the Hashira!"

"Where even am I?!" Tanjiro gasps.

Shinobu tells him, "This is the Demon Slayer Headquarters. You're here because you, Tanjiro Kamado, are to be put on trial. Before we begin the trial, why don't you explain the crime you've been accused—"

"There's no need for a trial!" Kyojurou interrupts hotly. "Protecting a demon is a clear violation. We can deal with this on our own. We shall execute them both!"

Tengen volunteers, "In that case, I'll decapitate them with style. I'll show you the most dramatic spray of blood ever! It'll be a spectacle!"

The Stone Hashira, Gyomei Himejima says, tears leaking down his cheeks, "Alas, to see such a pitiful creature as this... I grieve for him. Perhaps it would've been better if he hadn't been born."
