We begin in a mountain at north. A red haired boy was there looking down silently at the bugs. It was currently raining and he has no time to dry his clothes. At first sight the boy would look much not. But believe it. He was blind a blind--
16 Years Ago.
" I.. im sorry tanjiro , you might have to live alone " a female with green highlights said as she touches the boys cheeks
" Tale care " but before she could say goodbye she was killed her head was destroyed by a whip with sharp bone
Then he finally stared into the boy smiling happily. He was about to touch him when the supposed dad had died but no. Muzan stepped back. Despite the father having a large hole in his stomach he managed to cut him slightly but the father was also losing too much blood. But there he stood straight up but now it was really late. The father was now dead too next to the wife. As muzan approached the baby. A flame like thunder struck down at the boy it was too a big one and on the horizon was the sun rising and he has no time to risk for a dead child.
The child wasn't dead but. That lighting was the reason for his blindless , but also the reason for the gifts he had recieved. He see dead people , he smell them , he feels them and hears them. That was the gift.
Thats how he has always been.
The sensitive touch of his only by touching the ground he can locate and visualize his opponents body positioning and movements. Even if such slight movement he can feel the touch of it in the air.
His sense of hearing is so impossible to have , that he can hear people from miles , hear the heartbeats , the blood flows and even the blood vessel pulse.
His sense of smelling is also humanly impossible , having such great smelling ability that he can smell blood , water , food and even emotions of others.
But not only that using all three of his great senses he can envision the persons future movements.
That lightning that struck him when he was only a baby. Caused him to not see anything he cant even use see through world. But he can see dead people and they helped him throughout his training.
What training you might ask. A Breath Style by Yoriichi Tsugikuni , Breath Of The Sun. But to think that he befriended a few animals such as Butterflies , Birds , Snakes and Bears that helped him to create his own fighting styles.
( Current Time )
Tanjiro was there hugging the katana of his ancestors as his wide eyes just looked like it was staring at something.
" I should get going " the misty voice like the night but bright tone like the day changed the whole atmosphere
So he starts walking around like a normal person. Tanjiro does things differently than others since he was blind but has these great three senses. His mind almost works like a machine.
' 1 step on the grass should be very careful and dont weight my foot heavily then move at the speed of -- never mind i should just dash ' the red haired man dashed like a spinning bullet
Arriving at a very weird town. Most people there he felt , hear and smell them differently than other people in cities.
He by touching the ground he felt the temperature drop. Meaning the moon is arriving soon. He can feel that almost everyone that walks pass by him is mostly staring at his katana. So he is in high alert.
After a few thinking he realised he had smelled this type of thing before.
' a blood demon art? , so a mind control ive got to find this demon '
Not near there was a wolf like man running towards the village.
" A HUNTER! HAHAHA! A DEMON HUNTER HAVE DARED TO CHALLENGE ME-- " upon realising it the demon was already decapitated and his eyes was wide open seeing the red head hunter had just killed him he knew he wasn't dreaming but just a few seconds ago he was 1 kilometres away from him
A lot of questions entered the disintegrating demons mind. He knows he was also blind , but it was just impossible for someone to get there in just seconds.
As tanjiro kept walking he realized he was going up , so by touching the ground he detected 5 demons. They were all gathered , so as soon as he stood straight he sprinted fast. So just by feeling it the demons got on high alert but was too late. They already saw their reflection on a long metal. There were a trail of flames of the sword that they saw before dying and not even getting the chance to talk.
Tanjiro realised there was someone else there with his strong spirit he asked.
" Who are you? " after tanjiro asked he realised that he was no threat but he will be abig deal to kill because he smell like wisteria flowers , he also smell like his nichirin sword
" I am Ubuyashiki Kanata and you have just killed a lower moon with ease , therefore you will be a pillar "
" What is a pillar? , and lower moons " after the girl heard it she was quite shocked
" Are you not from the demon slayer corps? "
" Demon slayer corps? " now she was even more questions in her head
" Forgive me , but i dont recognize both those things , but could you explain it to me here? "
Tanjiro and the little girl sat. As she looked at him and tries to think asking herself where had she seen someone with that red flame mark , that crimson eyes , black with red burgundy hair. But also that golden handguard.
" The demon slayer corps is an organisation in which they slay demons with special swords and Abilities , with special crows also known as kasugai crows , there are 10 ranks in total - Mizunoto , Mizunoe , Kanoto , Kanoe , Tsuchinoto , Tsuchinoto , Hinoto and Hinoe. There is also a higher position Known as the pillars or hashira. That special Abilities and Sword that are made in special ore known as Scarlet crimson iron sand and scarlet crimson ore , that can only be found in the sunlight mountain , in which where the mountain is bathed by the sun throughout the year just like yours. As for the special abilities which is known as a breathing style-- " but before she could continue she was cut off
" I know that one but thank you for explaining , its no problem now the question is would you like to join the demon slayer corps and become a pillar? "
" Will it be okay to refuse that one? " she finally nodded
" Id like to continue my ways could i request one thing too? " The girl looked at him and finally asked
" But why do you keep looking at the ground , I havent asked your name? "
" My Name is tanjiro tsugikuni and was always blind , can we also keep this as a secret kanata san? "
" Of course tanjiro san , pls take care and do as much as you can " the blind man nodded and disappeared in an instant
" KANATA SAN! " she looked at her side to see
" Ah.. mitsuri san? "
" Oyakata sama was so scared and thought that something had happen to you, are you okay? "
" Yes i am " the green haired girl with pink tips grabbed her hand and continued their way and kanata finally thought of someone
' The Battle Doll in the swordsmith village , yoriichi type zero, were they related? '
After kanatas meeting with tanjiro, she realised that him and that battle doll has the exact same mark and burgundy hair except that his eye color is pale maroon and his red mark on his forehead has strange lightning strikes inside his mark but nevertheless they are so alike.
There she was sitting next to his mother as both his other siblings stand next to their father.
In the estate every pillar was there listening to their leader while an army of flesh eating demons were heading towards there place.
" Caw! Caw! Trouble at mt.rishiri a group of demons that is estimated to be 500 is on the move "
Every pillar was in deep horror 500 demons moving towards mt.rishiri.
" But i thought demons dont team up?! " asked by a white haired slayer with scar on his head they turned to the leader who nodded and they all left all together
Three crows headed towards a mansion where a blond , a boar head and two girls with butterfly hairpin. Stands in the backyard screaming.
" Caw! Caw! Go near south of mt.rishiri! Be ware 500 demons on the move "
" 5--5..500 QHHDJDB!! " the blone screamed
" AHAHHA! THE KING OF THE MOUNTAINS WILL KILL YOU ALL!! " screamed by the boar head as he dashed out of the room
" I.. inosuke wait! " The girl with a light red hairpin went to go with him so did the pink one
" W..wait! I cant leave two girls to fight all alone! " the blonde followed while being scared
As the four rushes towards hokkaido they met a strangely person with a katana on his waist and they didn't mind since the pink one replied.
" Must be something from his family " making the three agree
Just a few minutes of running they met 10 people.
" T..the hashiras?! " the ten of them looked at them
" Ara.. as seems like kanao and her friends were all also called "
" Yes kanae san! " the dark pink girl replied with enthusiasm
" Dont let us down future hashiras!! " the blonde with red tips smiled
" Yes! I will become a pillar! "
" *sighs* i wont even ask if this boar head turned to a hashira since there is a possibility that they will manage to kill 50 demons " replied the one with the snake
" O..oh come on now iguro san at least we will have more to help us defeat muzan! "
Going back near the butterfly mansion. Tanjiro was there who just touched the ground and felt more than 500 demons. 501 to be precise, and he knew that 501th demon was no ordinary demon with abilities. So he starts running while dodging trees like it is his playground.
While running he braced his feet tot he point where veins where appearing and in one push he dashed like lightning. Of course since he has that mark.
In the middle of the forest he stopped and starts walking like a normal blind person. As he walked he noticed that they are getting closer.
As for the demon slayer corps they saw a blind person with a katana.
" W..wait didn't we just passed by him? " Kanao asked
" E..ekk! His a ghost! a dead person!! " screamed once again by the blonde
" But what is a.. " they all had their eyes widened when demons started appearing out of the trees
" Shit! " they were about to launch an attack but realized that the person in front of them has already his katana out
In just matter of seconds the white haired with a bandana and the blonde swore they heard 70 swings. As for the black haired who was also blind but has a great ability saw what happened. He saw countless sword slashes that can't be done by a normal person, or an average demon slayer and even a pillar, it was too impossible to copy that amount of sword strikes.
It was quiet until everyone saw a the blind red head with blood on his katana hands and even his hair and face. As they saw multiple cut limbs, sliced upper body, legs, and even heads. Which shocked everyone.
" W..what just happened "
" Did he just "
" A.. amazing "
But the rest of the demons appeared. Which they can only look at how many but once again the guy walked towards them.
" S..should we help ? " Asked by the pink haired, the white haired with scar was about to rush to him when stopped by the strongest pillar
' Dragon Sun Halo Head Dance ' tanjiro said as his crimson sword was followed by a trail of flames
" A BREATHING STYLE?! " everyone saw the powerful swings, his incredible fast swings, his ravishing flame trails
They were all watching as the blind man continuesly swings his sword left to right, up to down and diagonally. This even shocked everyone when his continues attack stopped when a head of dragon appeared in his sword that disappeared. The demons was just continuing appearing but the person was continuesly swinging his red sword continuesly, it was like woods being throwed into a put of fire that would just burn instantly.
It was then they realised that the demons have decreased by 95 percent in just 5. There were 23 demons left and they all can see that it was like nothing to him no sweats and not even going to his full potential which they cant even imgaine how strong he is.
That is when there were no demons left which made everyone really speechless and there yet there he was standing unscratched and not even tired. Just by looking at him they can see that he can go for 50 more rounds of 500 demons. But no an upper moon appeared.
" Ten Thousand Leaves Flashing Willow " a pink haired demon targetted him but it didn't hit the him he had already jumped backwards
" Hoh i have not seen anyone dogde my attack like that but to think someone like you exist makes me excited! A blind person killed 500 demons! State your name! "
" Tanjiro "
" Good, Good! Tanjiro i will remember that! I am akaza by the way and it will be the last thing you will hear! "
The demon then charged towards tanjiro as for the pillars they could move and they had no reason for it all they know is they need to discover more of this tanjiro.
The pink haired demon then attacked him with great speed and immense strenght that he was able to overwhelm him for a short amount of time. As for tanjiro he then swinged his sword aiming for the neck--
" Crown Splitter " a reverse rising axe kick managed to intercept it making tanjiro defenseless from the front as he was about to punch tanjiro his sword suddenly came out of nowhere and sliced his hands
This made akaza on high alert and jumped in the air backwards. But as soon as he did he realised blood was spilling from somewhere and thats when he knew his leg has been cut off making him more happy.
" That's amazing! Show me more tanjiro!! "
" Eight Layered Demon Core " the demon then started punching with high speeds and both hands which the boy managed to feel through his great sense of touch
Tanjiro then did a slide sword stance and slashing it downwards diagonally creating a tornado of flames that deflected each of his attack that made akaza confuse to why did his attack looked similar to someone he knew it wasn't him that felt it but something made him realised. He had that same attack as that man that muzan was talking about.
" Final Form : Blue Silver Chaotic Afterglow " a very fast and strong attacks produced by akaza
" Shit! " the demon slayers launched backawards as the demons attacks destroyed some of the surrounding trees but not the blind person who was just dodging everything effortlessly
' reach him with that new form ' the boy then thrusted his sword backwards and slashing it starting from behind reaching the demon
' he.. reached me '
' 13th Form : Rising Dawn Of Daylight ' a delay trail of flames that represented the sun appeared out of nowhere
Everyone watched as the demon got decapitated by a blind person and watching as the sun literally rised which made everyone even shock a soon as the sun rised the person was gone and the demon was left it was just the demon.
" Where is he? / H..he disappeared?/ HES A GHOST!! A GHOST!! "
" Who has their kasugai crow? " asked by the bulk pillar
Someone then whistled it was kanae. A crow came flying.
" Wow.. since when did your crow did that sister? "
" Since / CAWWW!! " it screamed loudly as kanae only smiled
" Sorry but can you tell this to oyakata sama-- "
At the ubuyashiki estate sits the leader. A crow came in and starts talking.
" A boy with hanafuda earrings have singlehandedly killed 500 demons and an upper moon " this made the leader head go up
" Call the pillars a pillar meeting "
The crow with a scarf flew away and so did the other crow the person just sit there. As a white haired woman sit beside him and looking silently as the woman watched the sunsets. The male was blind since he had an illness more like a curse of the ubuyashiki family.
" Its beautiful / is the sun rising? "
" Yes "
When the pillars and the slayers who were there arrived they talked about what had happened they knew it was no blood demon art they were in it was reality. One person explained his looks it was the tsuguko of the flower pillar explained.
His hair was mostly brown but has a bit of dark red highlights , his eyes were pale crimson since he was blind , he also worn a green kimono with a red haori , he had a hanafuda earrings on both ears , he had a red katana with golden handguard. She had explained everything clearly. As for the pillars they told him that if had killed an upper moon meaning he could kill the upper moons also, but it was just a hypothesis since they only saw him fight for a few minutes.
" What do you suggest us to do now oyakata sama? "
" We find him "
