Akaza says that he finds them hard to understand, especially since only those who are chosen get to become Demons. They clash, and Akaza leaps up in the air, saying that none of the Hashira he's killed so far used flames and that none of them ever agreed to his invitation to become a Demon. He quickly dashes towards Kyojuro and the Hashira returns his advance, readying the Flame Breathing, First Form: Unknowing Fire attack, and Tanjiro notes that they're moving so fast that he can't follow them with his eyes only seeing sparks in the process. Īkaza unleashing his Technique Development, Destructive Death: Compass Needle.ĭisappointed, the Upper Rank begins to use his Technique Development, Destructive Death: Compass Needle, Akaza says that he will just kill Kyojuro if he won't become a Demon. Kyojuro looks the Upper Rank in the eyes and tells him that he will never ever become a Demon, no matter the explanation. What humans call strength, the Hashira says, isn't a word that they use in regards to the body, and that Tanjiro is not weak and should not be insulted by Akaza. Kyojuro says that growing old and dying is the very beauty of being human, going on to explain that people are only lovable and precious because of this aspect. Akaza says that if he becomes a Demon, Kyojuro can keep training for hundreds of years to become even stronger than he is right now. The Upper Rank then goes on to explain that, despite him being so close to it, Kyojuro will never reach supreme territory because he'll just grow old and die before it can happen.
Kyojuro says that he is the Flame Hashira, Kyojuro Rengoku, and the Demon introduces himself as Akaza. Kyojuro immediately declines, but the Upper Rank doesn't back off, saying that he knows the Hashira's strength just by looking at him and that he's getting close to "supreme territory". Kyojuro responds that the two appear to have practically complete opposite moral values, and the Upper Rank then asks if Kyojuro would like to become a Demon himself. As he smiles, the Upper Rank says that he hates weak humans too and that they disgust him.
The Upper Rank says that he just thought Tanjiro would get in the way between himself and Kyojuro, to which the latter responds by asking if they had something to talk about and saying that he despises him despite it being their first time meeting. The Demon immediately reassembles his arm and compliments Kyojuro's Nichirin Blade while licking the blood off his own arm, whom the latter then asks him why he was targeting an injured person. Kyojuro quickly unleashes the Flame Breathing, Second Form: Rising Scorching Sun, which cuts the Demon's arm in half and causes him to leap backwards, away from the Demon Slayers. Before adding on to his confusion, the Upper Rank almost instantaneously dashes towards Tanjiro swinging his fist to crush his skull. He then becomes incredibly perplexed to why an Upper Rank would be here of all places. The dust clears to a strange human figure with glowing eyes to which Tanjiro looks at and sees the specific kanji in his irises revealing it to be Upper Rank Three, deeply horrifying him. Just as Kyojuro starts to tell Tanjiro that he doesn't need to push himself any further because everyone's been saved, something jumps down just behind the two Demon Slayers with a great force, scattering the dust around them. The Flame Hashira tells Tanjiro that if he can master his breathing, he'll be able to accomplish many more things and become stronger tomorrow than he was yesterday. Kyojuro then notices that Tanjiro is bleeding from the abdomen and tells him to focus his breathing in order to heal himself, which the young Demon Slayer manages with some guidance from Kyojuro. He applauds the young Demon Slayer for his recently-acquired ability to use the Total Concentration: Constant ( 全 ( ぜん ) 集 ( しゅう ) 中 ( ちゅう ) ・ 常 ( じょう ) 中 ( ちゅう ), Zen Shūchū Jōchū ?), and says that this is the first step to him becoming a Hashira. After Tanjiro Kamado and Inosuke Hashibira have successfully defeated Enmu and escaped the out of controlled Demon train with Nezuko Kamado, Zenitsu Agatsuma and Kyojuro, the Flame Hashira checks on an injured Tanjiro as Inosuke goes to rescue another passenger.
