Dragon No Yaiba Heroes

by Peter JM Gamer

This crossover takes place after the Goku Black arc Dragon Ball Super and at the start of Kimetsu no Yaiba. Also it's an alternative Dragon Ball Super timeline part involving non-canon characters. Plus Dragon Ball Heroes is also involved. 3 chapters between chapter 24 to endings don't exist. Discontinued.

7. Spider Demons, old enemies and old power

I don't own Dragon Ball and Kimetsu No Yaiba Dragon ball is owned by Akira Toriyama and Kimetsu No Yaiba is owned by Koyoharu Gotouge.

Last time Zenitsu and Inosuke have joined Tanjiro, Goku and Nezuko. But Goku senses a bad familiar ki has they go off to Mt. Natagumo.

Chapter 7: Spider Demons and attack of another old enemy and new enemy revealed and old power unlocked.

Somewhere in the Dragon Ball Universe hidden from the Time Patrol:

Well it's to bad that Towa and Mira both died oh well I guess I now have send some of Goku's old enemies at him and hopefully they kill him. I don't want Gokus and Vegeta interfering with my experiments. Even know I shouldn't have but Goku here anyway even after I weaken him he's still leagues above all the demons there. But he does currently lack stamina which gives the demons a chance after Goku is done fighting his old enemies. Said Fu.

Time nest:

Corona says of course the barrier is still up because of Fu he must be the reason why it's still up. Bardock arrives after finding his mask. He says Supreme Kai of Time I have found the mask. Corona says good now let's see if you can now get pass the barrier? Bardock says right I need to save my son. Corona goes Bardock what's your maximum form? He replies with Super Saiyan God! Why? Corona says because you might need it against the old enemy Goku's going to fight against and you might also have to fuse with your son. Bardock says wait fuse with my son? Okay I will do that but only when it's necessary. Corona says alright then good luck.

Bardock buts on the mask and successfully passes through the negative barrier entering the Kimetsu No Yaiba universe.

The Kimetsu No Yaiba Universe:

Tanjiro, Zenitsu, Inosuke and Goku all have arrived at Mt. Natagumo and the sun has set. Zenitsu says hold up! Would you mind waiting a second? Tanjiro goes Zenitsu what's wrong? Zenitsu says I'm scared, alright? Now that we're nearing our destination, I'm so sacred! Inosuke says why the hell is he sitting? How creepy is that? Goku says really Zenitsu can you just please man up. Zenitsu says easy for you to say Goku since your above the demons. Goku says true but I think I have to go and fight an old enemy.

Goku starts flying. Tanjiro, Zenitsu and Inosuke all go wait your flying? Goku says yes almost everyone can fly in my Universe. Plus I managed to get my ability to fly back at the Wisteria House.

Goku sets off into the direct of the Ki he's sensing. The enemy senses Goku coming and goes oh he has made himself able to fly again. A least it doesn't make me have to do a ground battle. I want revenge on him for blasting me into the sun and blowing me up with Vegeta on Namek. After all he can't transform at the moment. Goku arrives and says Cooler why did it had to be you? Well Goku shall we begin? Goku thinks (I better go all out time Kaio-ken times 10). Goku goes Kaio-ken times 10 has he dodges an attack and lands one. Cooler says is that all you got? Goku goes Kaio-ken times 20 and lands another attack but has a massive toll on his own body. Goku tries his best to hold out.

Back with Tanjiro, Zenitsu and Inosuke:

Tanjiro says I hope that Goku will be alright! Zenitsu says how can he just leave just like that. Tanjiro says it might be because of he wants to keep us safe. Since he's old enemies could easily kill us I guess! Zenitsu says well that's a good thing for us but Goku might die and don't tell me you're not getting any vibes from that mountain! Tanjiro and Inosuke turn around and look at the mountain. They turn to the left and see Goku getting beaten up. Tanjiro shouts Goku. Wait I am picking up a new scent it's similar bit different to Goku's. A guy who looks like Goku knocks Cooler away and says leave my son along.

Zenitsu says wait did he say son? That must mean that man is Goku's father. Cooler says dammit another monkey. Let me guess your Goku's dad. Bardock says that's right I am Kakarot's father has he turns Super Saiyan. Cooler powers up and Bardock and Cooler clash and Bardock says son get out of here I got this. Goku says thanks dad. Tanjiro I am going with you my father has got Cooler under control I hope. Goku lands next to Tanjiro and Inosuke.

Tanjiro says to Zenitsu still, what good will it do to just sit there? Inosuke says I told you, he's creepy. Zenitsu responds my saying I am not in any way creepy! I'm normal! I'm the normal one! You guys are abnormal! Goku says look out. Everyone moves dodging a ki blast. They look at the battle. Tanjiro asks is that sparks coming off that guy. Goku says yes that's because he has gone Super Saiyan two. Tanjiro asks what's the difference between Super Saiyan and Super Saiyan two? Goku says Super Saiyan two is double the power of Super Saiyan and Super three is four times Super Saiyan 2.

Tanjiro and Goku both look back at the Mountain. Goku says I sense multiple demons in the forest. Goku starts flying in the air and says well I guess I can now fly since you all know that now. Zenitsu says what? What's wrong? Hey... Tanjiro says what is this smell? Goku says I sense someone there plus what's this weird aura I am seeing? Tanjiro moves a bit ahead. Zenitsu shouts Tanjiro! Inosuke also runs off. Zenitsu goes come on! Don't leave me here my myself! Especially with that battle going on! Don't leave me has he runs after them. All three of them stop when they see someone on the ground. Goku says my dad's ki has spiked up he must have gone Super Saiyan three.

Cooler goes so you have another transformation let me show you mine. Cooler turns into his form above his brother's. Bardock but on his mask while staying in Super Saiyan three. Cooler goes so that mask has further increased your power. Both of them clash again. Cooler breaks the mask. Bardock goes dammit I better go to the next level. Aaahhhh Bardock transformed into Super Saiyan God. Cooler says red hair hmm and what's this pressure. Goku says I can't feel my fathers ki but I do feel familiar pressure so I think he's gone Super Saiyan God!

Bardock is now beating up Cooler until Cooler goes do you think this is my final form. Cooler transforms and says feast your eyes on Golden Cooler. Dammit said Goku. Goku looks at the potara earrings and flies up to Bardock and says here take this earring. Bardock says I can't believe I have to do this but I have no choice. Bardock puts the earring on his left ear and Goku puts the other one on his right ear. Both of there bodies fuse into one. Alright says the fusion okay so Bardock and Kakarot make Bardrot!

Cooler says oh you too have fused I see and Bardrot is a stupid name. Bardock powers up and turns Super Saiyan Blue. Cooler goes blue hair now hmm. Bardrot punches Cooler so hard in the chest which causes cooler to cough up blood. Bardrot says I am ending this now super kamehameha blaster canon times 10. Cooler is engulf by the blast and is destroyed. Bardrot says I might have over done it but at least he's now dead has he powers done to base and defuses. Goku says I don't know how our fusion turned Super Saiyan Blue. Bardock says without that mask I am now stuck here too. Goku says I got to get back to Tanjiro and Inosuke they have entered the forest and Zenitsu hasn't. I see you later dad. Bardock says stay safe Son. Goku says I am glad that my dad is here. But I now detect another old enemy dammit. Wait it's lord slug oh he's not that much of a threat.

Back with Tanjiro, Inosuke and Zenitsu:

The guy on the floor goes help me. Tanjiro says he's got our uniform on! He's a Demon Slayer! Something must've happened! Zenitsu freaking out says hold up! Tanjiro goes are you alright? To the guy on the ground. What happened? All of a sudden something drags the guy away. The guy says they were attached to me, too! Help me! Goku appears and manages to save the guy. The guy thanks Goku. Tanjiro picks up a bad scent. Goku lands and says the threat of my old enemy has been taken care of.

Tanjiro says I'm going. Inosuke says I'll go on ahead. You can follow me, shivering. This is making me hungry. Goku says I better not fly I don't want the demons to know that I can fly. Tanjiro says Inosuke... Zenitsu frightened says this is challenging enough for you, right? Inosuke says let's go with Tanjiro running behind him. Leaving Zenitsu behind. Goku goes come on Zenitsu you have to come too. Zenitsu says no way! Goku says I wonder what Nezuko will think of the way you're acting. Zenitsu says don't say that wait Tanjiro has her on his back the idiot taking a young woman in danger. Goku says well that got him going has he laughs.

Zenitsu catches up with Tanjiro and Inosuke. Goku keeps up with them. Spider Demons are sitting in trees and there's people tied up in webs. There are multiple Spider Demons it's like a big family. Goku says I sense so many demons. But I also detect another old enemy but I think this old enemy isn't that much of a threat.

Tanjiro, Inosuke and Zenitsu are walking along. Tanjiro says Zenitsu you did come with just. Zenitsu says because Goku reminded me about Nezuko. And I don't like it that you're bring her into danger. Tanjiro says Zenitsu she's a demon remember so she will be fine. Goku says you worry too much. Remember I have the power to destroy planets so the demon's don't stand a chance against me unless a mysterious force increases their power. Tanjiro asks like what do you mean? Goku says I am now sure that this is Fu's plan to get rid of me. They all ask who's Fu? Another demon from my universe but he loves to do experiments and mess with time.

All four of them are walking along. Inosuke looks at his hands and says what the hell is this? All four of them look around and Goku says its just a spider web. Inosuke says jeez, this place is full of spider webs! What a pain! Goku says I do sense like thousands of spiders. Zenitsu goes thousands of spiders in a sacred voice. Tanjiro goes Inosuke? What do you want? Thanks. You said you'd come with me, and I felt encouraged. I am also more encouraged that Zenitsu has also come too. Goku says because of me and I sense someone not that far away! Tanjiro says that twisted, ominous scent I was picking up from the mountain... It made me freeze a little. Thanks. Inosuke doesn't know how to respond. Goku says oh I smell that too. Inosuke remembers the old woman at the Wisteria house.

Inosuke said Tanjiro. Everyone turns and sees someone. Let's go said Tanjiro. Right says Goku I am still going to hide the part that I can fly unless I have too. Tanjiro touches the guys shoulder. Tanjiro say we've come for backup. I'm Tanjiro Kamado, Rank Mizunoto. Goku says I am Son Goku and I am also rank Mizunoto. The guy says Mizunoto... Mizunoto? Why didn't they send a Hashira? No matter how many Mizunoto they send, it won't help! It's pointless! Inosuke punches the guy in the face. Tanjiro shouts Inosuke! Goku says please I am just enough myself to beat these demons. Has he powers up and shakes the area. The guy says wow did you just the area? Goku says yes. Inosuke says as far as pointlessness goes your existence itself has no point at all! Now tell us what's going on, you spineless fool! Goku puts his hand on the guys head and reads his memories (like he did with krillin on Namek). Goku goes so that's it hmm. The guy goes who the hell is this guy? Did you forget that I have seniority? The crow gave us the order! And ten of us Demon Slayers came here. Not long after we entered the mountain, the Slayers... The Slayers started killing each other! I... I...

At the Demon Slayer Corps HQ a exhausted crow has shared info. A man says you did well to return. So, most of my children have been slaughtered? We might find the Twelve Kizuki there, then. It seems I'll have to send in some Hashiras. Giyu is behind him with a woman. The guy says Giyu... Shinobu... Both at the same time say As you wish! Shinobu says if only humans and demons could get along. Don't you agree, Tomioka? He says impossible... As long as demons eat humans.

Zenitsu has somehow gotten lost away from Tanjiro, Inosuke and Goku. He shouts Tanjiro, Inosuke, Nezuko, Goku!

Tanjiro asks what is this sound? The guy says there it is again. It's this sound again! I heard this sound, and the next thing I knew, everyone started killing each other! Goku says I think a demon is controlling them with string. Now I want the Demon to attach the strings to me. Tanjiro asks why? Goku says I have a plan instead of going to the demon I will bring the demon to us. Tanjiro says how? Goku responses just watch me. But where's it coming from? Said Tanjiro.

They turn and see multiple people coming towards them. They try to attack everyone. Everyone dodges. Expect Goku who breaks their swords with ease and cuts the string. This makes all of the bodies fall on the fall since Goku cut all of the string with such speed. Inosuke says these guys are all morons! They don't know that it's taboo for us Demon Slayers to fight each other! Goku says what part of a demon is controlling did you not get! Inosuke goes oh so I just cut the strings them. Goku says yes same with Tanjiro. Wait what's your name? And where is Zenitsu? Don't tell me he got lost.

Tanjiro says so the demon is manipulated them? Yes said Goku. Can I go through with my plan. Tanjiro says fine. Inosuke says I'm gonna slash them to ribbons! Tanjiro says you can't do that! They're alive! Goku says I just be over here getting on with my plan. Tanjiro says some of them are still alive. Goku says just throw them trapping them in the trees. Tanjiro talking says besides, we can't harm the corpses of our teammates! Inosuke says stop denying me at every turn! Has he headbutts Tanjiro's chest.

The other guy is having some trouble. And Inosuke stops him from getting hit in the back along with Tanjiro has they both throw the body to the ground. Tanjiro says a strange sweet scent from his back! Tanjiro slashes at the strings cutting them. Tanjiro says it's the threads! They're being manipulated by threads! Slash the threads! Inosuke slashes multiple threads dropping bodies to the floor. And says I already knew that before you caught now. Goku says I noticed first. Try is it hard to get the threads on me! Never mind. Threads are attached to Goku. The demon goes now I got this guy under my control waiting why can't I move him. Goku goes I knew it I am to strong for the demon to control me with the threads.

Goku grabs the threads on him and pulls so hard that the demon is sent off her rock into a tree. Tanjiro goes Where's the location of the demon controlling them? Goku says I think I am pulling the demon towards us. Wait the demon cut the thread dammit. Well I am going after the demon since I can sense it's location. Tanjiro says go on them. Goku at high speed rush off in the demon's direction and comes across her. She says dammit they found me. Goku says so your the demon who controlled those people. She goes oh no I am dead. Wait I will be released from the pain. Goku stops and goes wait I sense sadness and pain from you and its enough to make you accept death. Goku thinks (well first time for me to use water breathing I use the one to give a peaceful death.). Goku goes fifth form... Blessed Rain After the Drought! The demon goes this is. (It feels like I'm being showered by a gentle rain. It doesn't hurt at all. It's not agonising. I just feel warm. I never dreamed that my end would be this tranquil. And now, I'll be released.

Small Flashback. She is crying with her hand on her eye. Saying I'm sorry! I apologise, so please forgive me! What made you angry? What caused you such displeasure? The other demon says it's your own fault for not realising what made him mad. She says but how could I? And demon says Mom's in trouble with Dad again! She gets her hair pulled and she says Stop it! No! No! End of Flashback. Goku is looking at her with a sad face. She goes (those eyes... Such kind eyes... Back when I was human, I think someone used to look at me with kind eyes. I wonder who that was. I can't remember. It was someone who always treasured me. I wonder how that person is doing now.). Tears come from her eyes. She says there's a member of the Twelve Kizuki here. Goku quickly goes thanks for telling me this. She says be careful has she finally disappeared.

Tanjiro and Inosuke and the other guy have stopped fighting since they stopped moving. Tanjiro says Goku must have got the demon alright. What's this? What an irritating odor! Though it was just for a second! What's this? So, the spiders are attaching them to the puppet strings. That means. But nothing happens. Tanjiro goes Goku has got the demon under control. That acrid smell again. What is it anyway? It's being carried here by the wind!

Inosuke says so what do we do now. By the way what your name? The guy says his name is Murata! A shadow appears above Tanjiro. Tanjiro looks up. A demon is walking on thread. The demon says don't disturb my family's peaceful life. Tanjiro thinks (he's floating! No. He's standing on the threads! What did he mean by "family"?). Mother will kill you all right away. Mother? Tanjiro asked. Inosuke says well I am sure she might all ready be dead I think that Boku got her. Inosuke attempts to jump attack but can reach. The demon says what do you mean dead alright? Tanjiro says Son Goku has already killed her.

Zenitsu is going around still shouting Tanjiro, Nezuko, Inosuke, Goku!

Tanjiro and Inosuke go on ahead has Murata says with the wounded Demon Slayers. Tanjiro says good luck taking care of those wounded Slayers me and Inosuke after going on ahead. Tanjiro and Inosuke see a bunch of other wounded slayers and a girl crying other them. Tanjiro and Inosuke both go to aid the girl and the wounded Slayers. Rui goes to there his mother was and sees the clothes. Rui is annoyed at his mother's death.

Zenitsu is trying to catch his breath. He says Nezuko! Where are you? And starts crying. Nezuko... Tanjiro... Wild Boar... Goku... Chuntaro! Where did you all go? I'm sorry for everything, okay? Zenitsu continues to cry. Chirp. Chuntaro? Chuntaro is on Zenitsu head with an angry look in his eyes. Zenitsu goes you mean you came after me? You're so adorable! Second only to Nezuko but still! While hugging him. I'm sorry for everything! Alright, let's go look for Nezuko together!

Meanwhile far away:

Bardock is training. He says I must get that form that my fusion with my son went in Super Saiyan Blue was it. Hmm I have to be careful since it's a full moon. Await who is this he looks like Kakarot? Hey you there who are you and I sense something odd about you. Goku Black says oh hello there I see your training. My name is Goku Black but I have to hide from the Demon Slayers ever since I was turned into a Demon against my will. Bardock says Black hmm what's that about? Black says fine I am a supreme Kai who stolen your sons body from another timeline. Bardock says is that so. Black says yes but I have turned good I have broken free from Kibutsuji's curse since I can say his name. Right I can help you train if you want. Bardock says okay you can train with me.

Tanjiro and Inosuke have came across a river.

Zenitsu shouts Nezuko! Where are you? With Chuntaro repeating what Zenitsu said. Zenitsu stops to get his breath back. And says where the hell are you Tanjiro, Inosuke, Goku? Don't just leave me here all by myself in this terrifying forest! Zenitsu freaks out when some birds flew out of some trees. What was that? You know what? This is starting to make me really mad! I'll find Nezuko as soon possible, and then it's so long, scary forest! Shouts Nezuko! Has he continues walking. A spider looks at Zenitsu.

Goku comes to Tanjiro and Inosuke and says I have killed the demon and she warned me that a Twelve Kizuki is here. Tanjiro goes (the blood of the Twelve Kizuki should have a high degree of, Kibutsuji's blood. If I can extract it, the medicine that will turn Nezuko back into a human can be completed sooner!).

Goku goes at least I did save the life's of other Demon Slayers. Tanjiro thinks (what's the deal with this mountain anyway? With one of the Twelve Kizuki present... And a demon family living here... But I thought demons never herded together!). Goku then says I have to go and fight one of my other old enemies! Stay safe!

Zenitsu still looking for everyone goes ouch! (Something just pricked me! What the hell? This is so annoying! I can't find Tanjiro, Inosuke and Goku anywhere! This sucks! Where did they go? Which way? Has he comes across two paths one going left and the other going right. Zenitsu also says and it stinks around here, too! Stinks! I think I'm gonna cry! And this sound of spiders rustling around is so creepy! I'm sure these spiders are doing their best to survive, too, but still! Zenitsu gets a chill up his back and turns around saying dammit! Shut up! Just stay still! Zenitsu sees a spider with a human head. And goes is this even possible?

Zenitsu is running away in panic saying that's a spider with a human face! What's up with that? What's up with that? Please be a dream! Please be a dream! Please be a dream! If this can just be a dream, I promise to do my best! If I wake up to find myself resting my head on Nezuko's lap, then I promise to give it all I have! I'll even plow fields! I'll be glad to plow a whole acre, no, even two acres! So, please! Let me wake up from this nightmare! Zenitsu stops running and looks up and sees bodies handing on threads. (What the heck is that? Are those humans who got turned into spiders? Is that house floating? I can see a glimpse of something, but are those threads? And it really stinks! Talk about pungent! This would kill Tanjiro with his keen sense of smell! This smell is making my throat ache! I'm tearing up! My eyes hurt, too!).

Lord Slug goes hmm who's this boy with yellow hair? I might go and kill him. Goku appears and says Lord Slug your not going to hurt that boy. (Dammit I can sense that Zenitsu is poisoned.). Zenitsu turns and sees Goku and says Goku am I glad to see you! But who is this? Goku says get out of here this is one of my old enemies. Before Zenitsu can get to safety a demon comes out of the house which is held in the air by threads. Goku and Lord Slug see this and both go what the? Zenitsu goes it's huge! It's huge! It's huge! It's so huge! That thing is too huge! Goku goes I agree with Zenitsu there.

Goku and Slug end up battling. Goku dodges multiple punches and says is that all you got? Lord Slug says I am more powerful than our last encounter! Goku says same here but I have improved a lot more than you! Has he lands multiple punches on to Slug's chest. Zenitsu has to face the spider demon while Goku fights Lord Slug. Zenitsu says that the demon you know what! I refuse to speak with anyone like you! And starts to run away. The demon laughs and says it's no use running away. You're already losing. Zenitsu goes what are you muttering about? I don't wanna hear it, so stop talking to me! I don't like guys like you, all right?

The demon says you already know how dire your situation is, don't you? Zenitsu says what are you talking about? Take a look at your hands. Zenitsu goes my hands? What's wrong with my hands. Goku goes wow slug your more powerful than I thought. Kaio-ken! Slug decided to go full power and Goku goes kaio-ken times 10. Lord Slug starts beating up Goku and says I am going after your new friends after I am done with you. Goku goes I won't lose anyone one again in pure rage. Goku hair starts glowing. Goku has finally gone Super Saiyan again. Goku goes (finally I am a Super Saiyan again now to end Lord Slug I don't want him going giant.).

Zenitsu looks at his hands. Goku says wait I sense three strong human ki's coming this way and I recognise one of them. Zenitsu sees a spot on this hand with some purple. What's this? The demon says it's poison. You got biten by a spider, right? Same with the other guy. Goku goes what!? The demon goes how are you not poisoned? Goku says possibly because my skin is to tough. Goku goes right Slug I am going to end you here. Goku punches Lord Slug into the air and goes super kame-hame-ha times ten. Goku has successfully killed Lord Slug but falls into his base form out of stamina. Zenitsu goes well there goes my help! The demon says to Zenitsu that poison will turn you into a spider, too.

With Bardock and Goku Black:

Bardock gets a vision and in the vision he sees almost everyone dying in a town to Kibutsuji. With Goku defeated with an old enemy above him. The version ends. Goku Black asks what's wrong Bardock? Bardock goes I had a version of the future and it doesn't look good. I have to warn Kakarot about this enemy! Black asks what enemy? Bardock says Cell! Black goes that's not good. Anything else? Yeah Kibutsuji has mostly like ends up killing everyone else. Black goes well we must try and change the future for the better. Bardock says agreed.

Back to Zenitsu:

The demon says in another 30 minutes, you'll be my slave, crawling all over the ground! Laughs. Look at this. It's a clock. Do you understand? By the time this long hand goes around once, you'll have become a member of the spider clan! When the needle arrives here, you'll start to feel tingling and plan in your limbs. When it's here, you'll also feel dizzy and nauseous! Here, you'll experience intense pain, your body will start to shrink, and you'll black out! And by the time you wake up... Goku barely conscious (this doesn't sound good for Zenitsu at all but I need to rest and get stamina back meaning Zenitsu is on his own dammit and I have to get back to Tanjiro.). Zenitsu screams in panic. And sees multiple spiders with human heads coming towards him. Panicking. Running. The demon laughs and says running away... Zenitsu says is futile! Right, right, right! I know that, all right? I know that! Has he climbs up a tree. What do you think you're doing? Said the demon. Zenitsu goes shut up! Just shut up! There's no need to be afraid. Once the poison makes its rounds and you turn into a spider, you'll lose all intelligence, too!

Zenitsu goes no! That's just what I don't like about this! Why can't you understand that, huh? I have no friends or girlfriend, all right? No one will like me! The demon says huh! I can see that you want an extra dose of poison to turn into a spider faster. Zenitsu responds my saying no! No! I don't want to turn into that! Zenitsu hears a voice saying get a hold of yourself!

Flashback: Stop crying! Stop running away! Said an old man. Doing that won't get you anywhere! Zenitsu! Zenitsu is crying in a tree. The old man continues come down from there! We're going to continue training! Zenitsu goes oh no! I'm sure I'll die if I do any more training! I'm sure that I'll die, so... The man says you won't die! Not from this level of training! Come down from there, you little moron! Zenitsu says Gramps! The man goes call me "Master"! Zenitsu says but I love you, Gramps! Which makes the man brush. Zenitsu says when the girl I loved made me raise money so she could run off with another guy, you did rescue me from my mountain of debt! Well, maybe all you wanted was to train a swordsman! I want to live up to your expectations, too! But it's totally beyond me! I do feel terrible about the fact that I'm like this! Just so you know, I've been training on my own in secret, too! I haven't been getting any sleep! But I have absolutely nothing to show for it! What does this mean? I mean, really, what does this mean? Has lightning appears in the sky. The guy says calm down, Zenitsu! You do have the ability to... Zenitsu says I've had enough! And gets hit by lightning. The old man shouts Zenitsu! Zenitsu falls out the tree.

End of Flashback. (I was thankful just to be alive, but... I... I hate myself more than anyone else. I always think I have to get my act together, but I end up cowering, running away, snivelling. I want to change. I want to be a competent person. Even still!). I'm doing everything I can all right? He said out loud. Still talking out loud saying so, why do I have to end up going bald and turning into a monster? It can't be true, right? It so can't be true! Goku thinks (I can't rest with his shouting!). The demon thinks (what's up with this guy?). Has the spiders with human heads are getting closer to Zenitsu. Zenitsu goes oh, crap! Don't climb up here! Just leave me alone for a minute! Just for a minute, all right? Zenitsu pulls some hair from his own head and goes (my hair's falling out already? My hair is falling out. Hey, he never mentioned that part to me!).

Zenitsu blacks out. Goku goes to himself (just great he passed out I need to help him wait I sense a change!). The demon thinks (who is this guy? Isn't he a demon hunter who came here to kill our family? Did he just faint? I can't believe how spineless he is.) Zenitsu falls out of the tree. (He's going to fall onto his head and die. What the hell?). Something is happening with Zenitsu. Zenitsu breaths deeply and says Thunder Breathing, First Form. And goes into a position jumping off the tree towards the demon spider drawing out his sword. The demon is shocked at this and spits out acid saying Poison Sputum! Zenitsu twists dodging the Poison Sputum which hits and part dissolves a tree. Goku goes man! I don't want to be hit by that and what's happen to Zenitsu all of a sudden? Wait is he doing this in his sleep? What a weirdo!

The demon in his mind goes (did he just twist his body in midair to dodge that? Such quick reflexes! It's like he's a totally different person!). Zenitsu gets back into position and goes Thunder Breathing, First Form. The demon says hey, you guys! Pounce on him! Zenitsu is dodging the spiders. Zenitsu again goes Thunder Breathing, First Form. The demon again shots more Poison Sputum and Zenitsu dodges. The demon thinks (he's been assuming the same stance over and over. No question about it. This guy is only capable of that one attack!

The voice of the old man goes that's all right, Zenitsu. That's good enough for you. Small Flashback. If you can master one, that's cause for a celebration! If you can only do one thing, hone it to perfection. Hone it to utmost limit! End of Flashback. Zenitsu goes (hey, but Gramps... Just a little while ago, you were hopping mad. Because Thunder Breathing has three forms, and all I can manage to do is one. Back to the old man. He says to Zenitsu do you know how to forge a sword? While hitting Zenitsu on the head. Zenitsu (I have no idea. Will you keep hitting me? I think I'll cry.). The old guy says the thing about swords... You, strike and strike and strike to get rid of impurities and anything you don't need, and to increase the purity of the blade, so a durable sword can be forged. Zenitsu (so that's why you keep clobbering me day in, day out? But I'm not made of steel, am I? I'm living flesh, you know.).

The demon is laughs and thinks (you're not much of a threat, are you? You call yourself a demon hunter? Any minute now, you'll be rendered immobile by that poison. Goku thinks (I wonder if I can use my ki to slow the poison in Zenitsu down?). The voice of the old man goes Zenitsu, perfect it! It's all right to cry. It's all right to run away! Just don't ever give up! Just believe. You endured all that hellish training! You'll be rewarded for that without fail! Hone it to the utmost limit! Sparks start coming off Zenitsu. Become the most durable blade of all! Goku goes wow Zenitsu's power has massively spiked up and he has lighting coming out of his body too. Still old man's voice hone that one thing to perfection! Has the demon spits out more poison. Which Zenitsu dodges.

All of the spiders with human heads all jump at Zenitsu. Zenitsu hears another voice saying get out of my sight. Small Flashback. A guy is biting into a piece of fruit. And says don't make me repeat myself. Get out of my sight. You know what I'm talking about. Aren't you ashamed of crying like a baby all day long? You laggard... Any time spent on you is wasted. Sensei is an extraordinary man. Zenitsu says but Gramps said. Has the fruit is thrown at him. The guy says "Gramps"? Don't speak of him in that familiar way! Sensei is a former Hashira! Someone who earned the highest title in the Demon Slayer Corps! Almost no one ever gets the chance to be trained by a former Hashira! The time Sensei spends training you is all for nothing! You're an eyesore, okay? Get out of my sight! Why are you here? Why do you insist on clinging here?

Zenitsu in his mind goes (I have no parents, so no one has any hopes for me. There's no one who dreams that I'll grasp or accomplish something one day. That I'll prove myself useful to somebody. That I'll manage to protect somebody and make that person happy, just once in my life. Not even a, simple future like that.) Has he sees those three kids from early and Nezuko in his mind. (There's no one who hopes that I'll have one. If you fail, cry and run away even once, they say, "oh, this guy's no good," and they walk away. But not Gramps! Time and time again, he steadfast reprimanded me. All those times I kept running away... Time and time again... He'd drag me right back. Clearly, he did smack me around a bit too much. But he never abandoned me! Goku is crying because he can read Zenitsu's aura and can part tell what Zenitsu had been through.

The demon says piece him! Inject him with more poison! The spider demons with human heads pull out there tongues with poison on the end. Zenitsu dodges. But blood comes out of Zenitsu's mouth. Tones of demon spiders cover Zenitsu. The main demon says that should do it for him! But lighting forms around Zenitsu blasting the spider demons off him. The demon (what's this? The air is vibrating.). Zenitsu eyes are glowing white. The demon goes on the floor. Zenitsu goes Thunder Breathing, First Form... Thunderclap and Flash! Sixfold! The demon goes back into the air with a thread he shot and spits more acid at Zenitsu who dodges and is also going so fast. The demon panicking goes he vanished? Zenitsu is going so fast tree to tree to tree and finally jumps off some thread towards the demon and successfully cuts the demons head off winning the battle. The demon dying goes (did I get slashed? Me? Slashed? By him? By a guy like him?

Zenitsu's body lands on the wooden house which is held up by threads. The demon says But that's absurd! By a guy who can barely move his arms and legs? Goku was about to say something but the demon's head has already disappeared. And the clock on the floor breaks. Goku jumps up to Zenitsu and says wow you really don't look good at all. Zenitsu thinks (dream it's a happy dream. I'm powerful. More powerful than anyone. I can help the weak and anyone in trouble. Anytime. Everything that Gramps taught me, all the time he spent on me... It wasn't for nothing! A dream that, thanks to Gramps, I became powerful and helped out a lot of people. But now, it's all over! Chirp. Zenitsu says Chuntaro... I'm so sorry. Chuntaro flies off it tears. Goku is sat there trying to think of what to do. Goku senses his father coming.

Bardock goes I want to see why I felt my sons ki was so high along with the of ki which is fading now. Bardock arrives and Goku goes up to him. Kakarot what happened? An old enemy and a spider demon. My friend is up their poisoned and it's turning him into a spider! Can you please use your god ki to save him? Bardock says alright son I heal him. Zenitsu closes his eyes. And hears don't ever give up! Zenitsu opens his eyes and controls he's own breathing to try and slow down the poison. Don't ever give up. Use the breathing technique to slow down the poison as much as you can. Even if it's painful, even if it's agonising, don't try to take the easy way out... Or Gramps is gonna let you have it! Right. And Tanjiro's gonna yell at you, too.

Bardock goes well you really don't look so good let's fix that. Bardock goes Super Saiyan God and puts his hands above Zenitsu and starts to slowly heal him. Bardock stops and says done I got rid of the poison I think and healed him a bit now he just needs a little bit of rest. Bardock goes oh right Kakarot I have to warn you. Goku says about what? Bardock says about the future I had a version that Kibutsuji has like almost killed everyone and you fall against Cell. Goku says what I fall against Cell and everyone else almost falls too Kibutsuji! Well I have to make sure that doesn't happen. Bardock says well I got to get going since I am trying to get Super Saiyan Blue. Goku says yeah good luck with that father and I will train hard myself!

Tanjiro goes what was that sound? Did lightning just strike? Inosuke says how should I know? But I'm not smelling any thunderclouds. The acrid odor in the air is stronger now, so I can't tell and I wonder how Murata is getting on with those other injured Slayers. Inosuke! I think I'll go that way. Inosuke says go ahead and do whatever you want! Tanjiro says but it's better to stick together. They both turn and look at the other side of the water and see a female demon. Tanjiro (a demon. Because of the odor wafting all over this mountain, I couldn't pick it up at all!). Inosuke goes I'm gonna tear you to shreds, you damn demon! She starts running away. Come back here, dammit! Said Inosuke. Tanjiro shouts Inosuke! The demon shouts father! Inosuke says who are you calling "father"? Tanjiro shouts Inosuke! Had a huge spider human looking demon appears. Inosuke avoids getting hit with a back flip. Tanjiro and Inosuke are both terrified. The demon says don't come near my family! Stay away! The her demon says I'm leaving the rest to you, Father. The demon goes to punch Inosuke and Tanjiro goes Kaio-ken and Water Breathing, Second From! Water Wheel! And strikes the demon's arm and fails to cut through.

Giyu and Shinobu see a lot of wounded people in the area there in. Shinobu says so I see that these hunters all survived like they were saved. And we were advised that several rookie Mizuntoto had joined the battle, but they could possibly be dead by now, don't you think? But it was said that one looked like a pillar we lost. Giyu says let's go. Shinobu says right we'll have lower members take care of these injured people. She says isn't the Moon lovely? Since we've been given this joint mission, let's try to get along. Giyu says I'm only here to slay some demons. Shinobu says how callous of you! All right, then, let's split up here. I shall proceed from the west. Giyu says agreed. Shinobu takes off by jumping. Has Giyu continues running.

Back with Tanjiro and Inosuke:

Tanjiro says it's no good! The blade won't go through even with the kaio-ken! Has the sword is like almost halfway through the arm. The demon is going to punch Tanjiro and is stop when Inosuke slams his swords at the second arm. Inosuke says so hard! The demon roars and knocks Tanjiro and Inosuke back. Tanjiro managed to land on boulder instead of in the water. Tanjiro says I can't slash him even if I use an attack! What should I do?

Goku is currently having a small rest to get some stamina back. Goku has turned back into his base form shortly after getting back Super Saiyan Stage 4 (perfected Super Saiyan). Goku goes I must get back to Tanjiro and Inosuke I sense a bad ki near them and a good ki that might not make it in time. Dammit I have to leave Zenitsu behind I do sense another good ki coming his direction any so he might be in good hands. Goku starts running off into Tanjiro's direction.

Back with Tanjiro and Inosuke:

Tanjiro going what should I do? The demon says don't come near my family! Stay away! While charging at Tanjiro. Tanjiro manages to dodge a punch. Inosuke goes what are you looking at? I'm over here! Curse you! Has he goes in for an attack just to be slapped away and lands in the water. Inosuke says ouch! All that force with just one swipe of its arm! It's no good! I'm not at full power! Not to mention, the little bit of bleeding's that got water in them is making me stumbled with stinging pains! The demon starts chasing Inosuke. Tanjiro goes Water Breathing, Second Form... Improved, Horizontal Water Wheel! At a tree cutting it. The tree falls on the demon. Inosuke goes what was that? What's going on? Tanjiro shouts Inosuke! You okay? Inosuke, (he did that? That was some move, dammit!).

Tanjiro goes all right. Has the demon is trying to get out of the water. (I should be able to chop off that tough neck now! Water Breathing... The final and most powerful form!). Tanjiro heavily breathes in. Inosuke (he's got a different air about him now. He's about to do something totally mind-blowing!). Tanjiro (now I'll finish him off! Total Concentration... Water Breathing... Tenth Form! And Kaio-ken!). The demon stops Tanjiro's attack by using the tree. Inosuke shouts look out! Tanjiro is launched away. Inosuke shouts Kentaro! Tanjiro shouts Inosuke! Don't die until I get back! That's one of the Twelve Kizuki! Don't die! Don't die! Whatever you do, don't die! Inosuke is shocked. The demon roars at Inosuke and Inosuke goes oh, crap! Goku goes dammit Tanjiro's ki is now somewhere else I must get to him.

Zenitsu is still resting but there is still a little poison left that Bardock missed but luckily Zenitsu is slowing it down with his breathing. It was like the poison was reset along with the time so Zenitsu isn't in a really bad way. But is still fighting to say conscious. Zenitsu goes (it's getting really hard to breathe now. That weird guy somehow give me like an extra five minutes. I have no feeling in my arms and legs anymore. Nezuko... I'm sorry.). Hear hears don't give up! Don't give up! Don't give up! (Don't give up!). Has eye part opens his eyes. He part saw some images of a butterfly. Shinobu lands next to him. Zenitsu says who are you? Shinobu says yoo-hoo! Are you alright?

Back with Tanjiro who's still falling. Tanjiro goes Water Breathing, Second Form! Water Wheel! He did that to break his fall. But still hits a tree. Tanjiro (I managed to land somehow! Tanjiro hears some screaming. A voice goes I beg of you! Please stop! Tanjiro part walks forward a bit and crouches down. A demon girl is bleeding. With a demon boy standing in front of her. Tanjiro is part shocked. The demon boy looks over at Tanjiro and says what are you looking at? This isn't some show, you know. Tanjiro asks Wh-what are you doing? Aren't you two allies? The demon boy says allies? Don't put us in the same category as something that flimsy. We're family. We're joined by a powerful bond. And besides, this is between me and my sister. So don't interfere. Or I'll carve you up. Goku is part watching a bit further back out of site and is having so energy bars.

Tanjiro says you're wrong! Whether it's your family or an ally, if you have a strong bond between you, then either one should be just as precious! Calling it flimsy if you're not related by blood... That's not true at all! Not only that, but those who have a strong bond give off the scent of trust! But all I'm picking up from you two is the scent of terror, hatred and repulsion! That's not what you call a bond! It's counterfeit! It's forged! Goku thinks (boy Tanjiro isn't wrong and I think being around him is part changing me and in a good way!). This makes the demon girl gasp. And part shocks Rui. Rui says you...

A another demon slayer appears and says hey! Look at that, a demon that's just the right size. Goku thinks (that fool he's going to get himself killed!). The guy continues even I can take down a kid demon like this one. Tanjiro goes hold up a second please! The guy says you can just back off! I want to take the safe route up the ladder. Since once you move up, you get more money from the top guys. My unit's practically been wiped out, but I'll slay myself a decent-sized demon and head down the mountain. Take this! Tanjiro shouts Don't do it! Stop! The guy is cut into pieces. Tanjiro mind (shattered to pieces in an instant! But how did he?). Goku throws up and goes dammit I wish I hadn't had those energy bars now! Part gone to waste.

Rui says hey, what did you say? Look, you... What was it that you just said? Tanjiro (just look at that intimidation factor! The air just got heavy and denser! Inosuke, I'm sorry! Hang in there, okay? Just a little longer! I'll be there as, soon as I defeat this demon! I'll come save you no matter what!). Rui says hey, you... What you said just now... Let's hear you say it again. Come on. Say it, will you? Tanjiro says sure! I'll repeat it as many times as you want! Your bond is forged!

Back with Inosuke who's hiding behind a tree. The demon is looking for him. The demon notices a blood trail on the floor. Inosuke goes oh, crap! The demon is coming towards Inosuke. Inosuke (dammit! Hiding myself in a place like this... How pathetic is that? Still, I gotta come up with a way. How do you slash someone who's sword-proof? What should I do? What should I do? Just how do I slash it?). Think! Think! Think! Think—. Inosuke moves when the demon destroys the tree with a punch. Inosuke running away goes whoa! This is bad! This is really bad! Until... Until he gets back, I gotta somehow... He stops and goes what the hell kind of attitude is that? Don't mess around, dammit! Has he runs at the demon. Jumps and puts the sword into the demons arm. Inosuke says curse you! (Looks like I got infected by Tontaro's germs! Messing around like that... That was way too close a call! Using my head? That's so not me!). Has he cuts the demon's arm off my slamming one sword onto the other. All right! Slashed you! It's really simple. If you can't slash something with one sword, all you gotta do is pound it with another sword! I mean, look! I have two swords! I'm the almighty! The demon runs away Inosuke goes are you running away on me? Hey you! Come back here, dammit!

Back with Tanjiro battling Rui. Tanjiro blocks an some thread with his sword. Tanjiro has got some small cuts on his head and is gasping for breath. Rui says I just want to let you know... I won't kill you in one blow. After ripping you to shreds, I'll carve you up. But... If you take back what you said just now, I'll do you a favour and kill you at once. Tanjiro says I won't take it back! What I said was the truth! Goku goes (well I better help him wait why has my power dropped I can only use like 1%! Dammit the negative barrier has been increased that's why I better go Super Saiyan. Dammit the barrier is stopping me. Dam you Fu! Well I still have Kaio-ken and so does Tanjiro. I do feel 400 times stronger after I gone Super Saiyan.). Tanjiro continues you know who's not making any sense? It's you! You're the one who's mistaken!

Hidden part of the Dragon Ball Universe:

Fu goes I am so sorry Goku but I can't let you interfere with this part of that dimensions history even know I want him too so I can absorb the energy. But Goku can't have Tanjiro's and Nezuko's moment. I might also have to sent someone I know who can kill Goku and has killed multiple versions of course evil Goku. Evil Goku goes so Fu you want me to kill another good version of me? Fu says that's right. But first I have to make sure that the barrier doesn't affect you so you have to wait a bit! Evil Goku says fine I'll wait. Fu goes (dammit after Goku went Super Saiyan the power of Super Saiyan three divided off his base has been undone which is why I have massive increased the negative barrier effects on him. I am surprised that over two years Goku hasn't noticed the negative energy inside him which makes the negative barrier more effective on him. Plus that stolen power I can put on a demon so Goku doesn't stand a chance. To bad I can't take the Kaio-ken away from Goku. Which is a pain! I can't do anything about Bardock though. Why do the Time Patrollers always have to get involved!).

Back to Tanjiro and Rui battle:

Tanjiro is part breathing heavily. Goku goes (I have to beat this barrier dammit! Wait. Goku looks inside himself and goes dammit there's negative energy in me which increases the effect of the barrier and it's also stealing my power. That's why I am so weak! Focus Goku fight the energy!). Goku manages to get rid of the negative energy and starts slowly getting back to full power. But the negative energy is going to try and possess a demon when the time is right. Tanjiro gets into stance to fight Rui.

Inosuke is running after that spider demon. Inosuke goes (Damn! That bastard... Where the hell did he go, dammit?). He says I'm telling ya, this doesn't hurt! What doesn't hurt doesn't hurt! Now that it's come to this, I'll sniff it out for sure! Inosuke buts his hands up and goes aaaahhh. Then looks up and says so, there you are! You idiot piece of crap! How high did you climb up? Has the demon is in a tree and is like in pain?. Inosuke says damn you! So, you're plotting to make me use my head again, huh? In your dreams! What the... Oh, I get it! He's trembling with fear and dread at the sight of me, huh? Well, it's a little too late for that!

The demon's appearance has changed. Inosuke goes what the... Now what? D-did it just shed its skin? The demon jumps and lands in front of Inosuke. Inosuke (jeez. Come on, that's bulking up way too much! This is looking really bad for me! I've never sensed this much force from an opponent before! I'll get crushed just by his force!). The demon roars. Inosuke (it's no good. I can't win.). He lowers his hands in defeat. The demon is coming in for a punch. Inosuke (I'm gonna die. I'm gonna be killed.). Inosuke then hears Tanjiro's voice going "don't die! Don't die until I get back!" he then hears the old woman "always live your lives with great pride. I wish you luck in battle!". Inosuke (I'm not gonna lose!). No way am I gonna lose! I'm Inosuke Hashibira of the Demon Slayer Corps! Just bring it on, you dirtbag! He said out loud.

The demon hits Inosuke into multiple trees. Inosuke says so fast! I can't see it! Inosuke lands into a tree and just managed to dodge another punch from the demon. Inosuke goes Beast Breathing... Fang Three, Devour! He hits the back of the demon's neck and both swords break. Inosuke goes it snapped! And is smacked into another tree by the demon. Inosuke says oh, crap! I failed to go on the defensive with my breath attack! The demon picks up Inosuke and says don't come near my family! Stay away! While trying to strangle Inosuke to death. Inosuke says I'm not gonna die! Beast Breathing Fang One... Take this! Pierce! Inosuke has managed to get the broken blades into the demon's neck. Inosuke goes they're in! They're in, but... What the hell? This thing isn't even flinching! The demon put his hand holding Inosuke away from his body and starts crushing Inosuke head. Inosuke starts seeing a young woman and the woman says I'm sorry while crying and holding a baby boy. She says I'm sorry, Inosuke. And them sees a image of Tanjiro, Zenitsu, Goku and the old lady from the Wisteria house. Even a bug on his finger. And he sees the young woman saying I want at least you to survive, Inosuke. Inosuke says wh-who are you? Had blood comes from his mouth.

All of a sudden the demon's arm is cut off which saves Inosuke. Inosuke goes (what was that? Did he slash it? That guy? Who is that? Who on earth...). So Giyu has arrived and saved Inosuke. The demon grows it's arm back. And charges at Giyu. That's fast! Though Inosuke. Giyu goes (Water Breathing, Fourth Form... Striking Tide!). Giyu has easliy killed the demon. Inosuke goes (holy crap! I-I've never seen anyone... As incredible as this guy!). Accidentally forgetting about Goku.

Tanjiro is mostly continuing to avoid most of Rui's attacks. By jumping onto branches and going back to the ground. And well mostly jumping. Tanjiro goes (got it! The acrid odor's starting to fade, so I now can detect the scent of the threads! I can take him on now! Wait I pick up Goku's scent very close by and he's weak. Rui thinks (he's smarter than I thought. He doesn't flinch back in fear. Well, not that it matters anyway. Rui attacks Tanjiro with threads Tanjiro dodges and goes (Water Breathing, First form... Water Surface Slash and Kaio-ken times 2! The sword hit the thread and broke. Tanjiro is lucky that the thread only did a small cut to his head, because he is lucky to have a really hard head. But Tanjiro still bad roles. Tanjiro goes (now way! My sword!). He gets back up.

Back with Inosuke and Giyu:

The Spider demon has disappeared after Giyu cut it too bits. Inosuke is trying to get his breath with his hand on his own injured throat. Inosuke (amazing! He's on a different level! The force of his stroke is in a different class! He's head and shoulders above the rest! He slashed that tough-as-nails monster like tofu! Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! Who is this guy? I still have goosebumps, dammit!). Giyu turns and sees Inosuke staring at him. Giyu then turns and starts walking away. Inosuke goes hold up a second! Fight me, Mismatched Haori! You beat that Twelve Kizuki! And I'm gonna beat you! That's how I've drawn it up! If I can do that... That'll make me the most powerful of all! Giyu says go back to training, idiot. This shocks Inosuke. Inosuke goes what the... Giyu says that was no Twelve Kizuki or anything close to one. You can't even tell that much? While undoing some rope. Inosuke shouts sure I can tell! I never thought that scrub could be one of the Twelve Kizuki, either! It was Tanjiro who said it was one of the Twelve Kizuki! All I did was repeat what he said, all right? Has he been tied up to the tree when he finished his sentence. Inosuke goes what's going on? Did he just tie me up? So quick! This guy's so quick! Wait, you! Come back here! Giyu says stay out of battle if you don't even realise how hurt you are. Inosuke goes I can't hear you! Your voice is too soft, and you walk too fast! I said hold up a second! Untie these ropes right now! Hey! Hey! Hey! But he said the last hey so loud that he lost his voice.

Back with Zenitsu and Shinobu:

Zenitsu is still breathing to slow down the poison. Well Bardock healed him but didn't get rid of the poison which did make the poison have five minutes less affect. Shinobu says yoo-hoo! Are you all right? Zenitsu says Gramps... Shinobu then says who are you calling "Gramps"? Zenitsu says just now, Gramps showed up, and told me not to give up. Shinobu says you saw your life flashing before your eyes. According to one theory, the reason one sees such images just before death is because you're searching for a way to avoid death by going through all your past experiences and memories. Well, not that I can say for sure, since I've never experienced it myself. Has she pulls out a needle she got out of a box which was in her kimono. She puts her finger on Zenitsu's head and says right, you did a good job slowing down the poison's path with your breathing. If you hadn't been able to do that, you would've turned into a spider long ago. I'll inject you with the antidote now, okay? Zenitsu has the antidote put in him.

Hears voices from below. Hurry! Over here, over here! Are you all right? Zenitsu turns his head away sees people below. Can we get them down? Said one below. Another one says be careful, okay? Another person says it's all good! Everyone's still alive! Before Zenitsu goes to sleep he says I was part helped by a guy with who has a scar on his face, with a red thing wrapped around his head, weird spiky hair and I if I remember correctly I think I heard the guys name was Bardock. Zenitsu them falls asleep. Shinobu gets thinking (strange spiky hair. Kakarot black had strange spiky hair hmm. No it can't be him unless he's become on demon. But I never heard of anyone called Bardock!).

Back with Tanjiro, Goku and Rui:

Tanjiro is trying to get his breath back. Tanjiro (my sword got snapped! I can't believe it! The threads this boy is controlling... Does this mean they're even tougher than the body of that demon I couldn't slash? Forgive me, Mr. Urokodaki, Mr. Haganezuka! Thanks to my inexperience, my sword is now broken! And I am to injured and tired to use the Kaio-ken so I have to use all the energy I can!). Tanjiro dodges so thread attacks. Tanjiro (no, this isn't the time for that! Think! Think! If I can't slash those threads, then let me get right up in his face!). He dodges some more threads. Tanjiro (it's no good! Those threads have a life of their own, and I can't get through their attacks! Even though he's holding back enough not to kill me, he's still overwhelming me to this degree!). Rui says well? Do you still refuse to take back what you just said? Fine. In that case, you'll get slashed to ribbons. Rui does a Web like cage attack. Tanjiro (I can't dodge them all!). Goku (oh no Tanjiro!). Blood goes around the place. But Tanjiro, Rui and Goku are shocked. Nezuko has came out and shielded Tanjiro from the attack. Tanjiro and Goku both shout Nezuko! Tanjiro grabs Nezuko and takes her behind a tree. Goku (that's it I had enough I will use all the energy I currently have to help!). Tanjiro goes Nezuko! Nezuko! You protected me! I'm sorry!

The demon girl says a girl emerged from that box on his shoulders. But she has the aura of a demon! So looks and sees Rui shocked. Rui says hey, you... Is that... That girl... Is she your sibling? Tanjiro says so what if she is? (The wound's so deep! Her left wrist is about to fall off! Hurry up and heal! Hurry up and heal! Hurry up and heal!). Goku goes okay plants, trees and other living things share your energy with me! Goku starts forming a small spirit bomb. Rui says siblings... Siblings... The sister's been turned into a demon. Yet, she stays by his side. The demon girl says Rui? Rui continues the younger sister protected the elder brother. Risking her own life... That's a genuine bond! I want it! Goku thinks (well at least he's attitude has changed which gives me a bit more time.). The demon girl says wait a minute! Wait a minute! Please! I'm your elder sister! Don't desert me! Rui shouts shut up has he cuts his sister apart. Which also knocks down a tree causing Goku to move a bit.

Goku goes that was close! Out loud. Rui says none of you ever managed to fulfil the roles you were given. Never. Not once. She says wait. I was the elder sister you wanted, wasn't I? Give me a chance to redeem myself! Rui says in that case, go kill those people wandering all over this mountain. If you do that, I'll forgive you for what just happened. She says fine. I'll go kill them. But what about that other guy there with his hands up in the air? Has she runs off with her head in her own arms. Rui goes hey you over there with your arms in the air how long have you been here? Goku goes (dammit I have been spotted!). Goku says has long has the boy you have just been fighting. Rui goes well I am going to kill you. Goku goes good luck with that. Goku goes the spirit bomb is ready. Goku absorbs the Spirit bomb. Rui goes what did you just do? Goku says I just absorbed some energy that's all and I am not jumping in yet after all I will jump in when needed too. Goku thinks (oh no I sense another familiar ki and it's really, really bad! Even me fused with my dad wouldn't be enough! Why did it have to be him I am sick of hearing him shouting my name Kakarot all the time!).

Rui puts his attention back to Tanjiro and says boy... Boy, let's talk. Come on out. Tanjiro thinks (boy? Talk?). Rui says the thing is, I was really moved. Seeing the bond you two share gave me the chills. I doubt there are any words in this universe that can describe how moved I was. But now the only thing left for you and your friend is death by my hand. It would be sad if it were to come to pass, rthing Goku says I believe that the word you are looking for is astonished. Rui goes what? Goku says well you did says words from this universe and I am not from this Universe. Rui just goes back talking to Tanjiro and says but there's just one thing. Just one thing that will let you both escape that. Your sister... Give your sister to me. Goku thinks (okay I think his demon last lost it.). Rui continues if you hand her over without a fight, I'll at least spare your life's.

Tanjiro says I have no idea what you're talking about! Rui says your little sister will be my little sister. Starting today. Tanjiro says you don't actually think I'd ever agree to that! Not to mention, Nezuko's not a thing! She has her own feelings and will! There's no way she'll ever be your sister! Rui says it's alright. No need to worry. Because I'll will create a bond between us. I'm stronger than you. I'm talking about the bond of terror. I'll teach her what will happen if she defies me. Goku says yes you are stronger than Tanjiro but your no where near my level! Rui goes you want to test that boy! Goku says not yet this is, Tanjiro's fight I jump in if I have to save him. Tanjiro goes I've had enough of this crazy talk! Using terror to shackle someone hand and foot is not a bond of a family! Unless you fix that basic misunderstanding, you'll never get what you desire! Rui says so irritating. Would you mind not shouting? We don't see eye to eye, do we? Tanjiro takes the box off this back and walks from behind the tree and says I'll never hand Nezuko over to you! Rui says that's okay, I guess. I'll just kill you and your friend and then take her. Tanjiro replies by saying I'll cut off your head first! Rui says that's the spirit! I'd like to see you both try it. That is, if you can actually defeat a Twelve Kizuki like me! (Lower Moon Demon Five).

Rui goes family. A father has his role as the father, and the mother has her role as the mother. The parents protect the children, and the elder brother and sister protect their younger siblings. No matter what. At the risk of their own lives. The way I see it, if you don't understand your own roles, there's no reason for you to live. What about you? What is your role? Your role is to relinquish your younger sister to me and disappear. If you can't do that, your only option is to die. Because you can't defeat me.

Goku says well I grew up without my parents and my older brother tried to kill me and kidnapped my son. You don't know how much pain I have been through I have been to other dimensions and made and lost new friends and I am not that far away from turning fifty years old actually. Tanjiro goes wow Goku I didn't know that you had been through so much pain. Tanjiro (Lower Five... Just as I thought! That power... This kid is a true Twelve Kizuki! It won't be easy to slash those threads. What should I do? With this broken sword... If that kid's neck turns out to be tougher than the threads...). Rui says I don't like that look in your eyes. Glittering like that... What a fool you are. Don't tell me... You think you're going to beat me? Has he grabs hold of Nezuko with the threads. Tanjiro shouts Nezuko! Rui catches her and head locks her. Alright, I've taken her now.

Goku goes (wait I have seen this battle in the manga Goten read Tanjiro doesn't win but Giyu the Water Pillar does I might has well kill Rui before Giyu arrives so Tanjiro doesn't get a injured.). Goku says that's what you think! Rui says now, do you recognise what your own role is? Tanjiro goes let her go! Rui says but I told you I'd spare your life, at least, if you didn't defy me. Nezuko tries to break free. Nezuko hits Rui's pressure point on his shoulder and throws him to the ground. Tanjiro dodges Thread that's launched at him. Goku says told you. After all I did teach her my martial-arts along with weak points of the body. Tanjiro stops and ducks. Tanjiro (Nezuko's gone!). Blood lands on what's left of Tanjiro's sword.

Tanjiro looks up and sees Nezuko being hanged up by threads. Goku goes well now that's going too far. I am now going to jump in. Tanjiro shouts Nezuko! Goku says Tanjiro she is safe from getting hit by my sword while she's up there. Also can't she just heal? Rui says stop that hollering. I'm sure that's not enough to kill her. After all, she's a demon. But it looks like I'll have to teach her a lesson after all. I'm going to let her bleed for a while. If she still doesn't learn to be docile, I'll just leave her like that until daybreak... And let her roast a bit. Tanjiro goes you let Nezuko... Let her go! Tanjiro charges in. Goku starts going kamehameha, right I am going to fire once Tanjiro is out of the way.

Tanjiro part gets hit by some threads. Rui kicks Tanjiro. Tanjiro starts coughing up blood. And is punched in the head. Tanjiro is having trouble standing. Rui goes look, you... I'm sure I'm mistaken, but... You don't think that if you get close enough to me, you can chop off my head, do you? Fine by me. Here. Give it a shot. Tanjiro swings and missed and is hit on the head. Tanjiro hits Rui's neck but nothing happens. Tanjiro (the blade... Won't go through!). Rui goes didn't I tell you? You have no chance against me. Tanjiro is kicked away really hard. Rui says my body is more durable than any thread I manipulate. Goku goes (wait so how in the manga did he cut his own head off them I am so confused.). Rui saying if you can't even slash those threads, you don't have a chance in hell of slashing my neck. Nezuko is trying to break free but can't. Tanjiro (so powerful. His power is on a whole different level than any other demon I've fought! So, thid is a Twelve Kizuki's... The power of a, demon closely related to Kibutsuji? Rui goes your making too much noise. Quiet down a bit. He tightens the thread around Nezuko. Nezuko is screaming in pain. Tanjiro shouts stop that! Rui says I'm your elder brother now. Enough of that infernal wailing. Tanjiro goes (clam down! Don't get emotional! If you keep this up, you'll be playing right into his hands!

A big light hits Rui. Rui gets up damaged and heals he looks at Goku and goes why you! Rui attacks Goku with a thread cage that Nezuko saved Tanjiro from earlier. Tanjiro shouts Goku! Goku breaths and grabs the hold of the threads shocking Rui. Goku goes you think that you can get be with some weak threads! You flies up to Nezuko and gets hit on the back by thread. Goku goes well I guess I have to take you out first and by the way that trickled. Rui sees that Nezuko has gone asleep. Rui says did she pass out? Is she asleep? This demon has a unique aura. There's something about her that's not like the rest of us. Interesting.

Tanjiro goes (Concentrate! Control your breathing! Unleash the most precise, final Form! Total Concentration...). Rui goes you don't realise how futile it is? Goku goes (I better stay out of Tanjiro's way. For now.). Tanjiro has started to cut through the threads which part surprises Rui. Tanjiro goes (Water Breathing! Tenth Form! Constant Flux! And Kaio-ken times 2!). A water dragon appears from the sword. Goku goes (that's the final form hmm. It looks cool I guess.). Tanjiro is cutting through the threads. Tanjiro {I slashed them! I was able to slash the threads!). Rui (Gathering force with each rotation... This could be trouble. And what is this red light around him too.). Tanjiro (I can do it! If I can keep closing the distance between us, I can defeat him!

Rui says hey... You don't think these threads are at maximum strength, do you? Demon Blood Art Cutting Thread Cage. I have no more use for you. Goodbye. Goku shouts Tanjiro (wait I know what happens Tanjiro has a flashback and switches breaths. I have to let this play out and cut this demon's head off once Tanjiro is down!). Tanjiro (no good! I can't slash these threads! I'm still not getting enough spin even with the Kaio-ken! These are giving off a totally different scent than the other threads! But I can't afford to lose no matter what! I'm gonna die! I'm gonna lose! I'm...) Tanjiro's life flashes in his eyes. He sees young Nezuko and himself playing. With he's dad watching. Father! Said Tanjiro. Tanjiro's dad says Tanjiro... Breathe. Get your breathing under control and become Hinokami. Tanjiro them sees his mother talking to him. She says Tanjiro look. It's your father's kagura dance. Our family works with fire, so to ward off injuries and disasters, we offer this dance to Hinokami, along with our prayers, no New Year's Day. Young Tanjiro asks hey, Mother... How can, Father dance like that in the snow for so long when he's so frail? I bet my lungs would freeze.

Tanjiro's father says there's a breathing technique. A way to breathe so that you won't exhaust yourself, no matter how much you move. Tanjiro says breathe? Right. If you can master the correct way to breathe, you'll be able to dance forever, too. The cold won't bother you, either. Tanjiro, if nothing else, make sure this kagura and these earrings get passed down to you uninterrupted. That's what I promised. Tanjiro changes breathe style. Tanjiro (Hinokami Kagura... Dance!). His dragon changes from water to fire and he cuts through the threads. Rui (the threads...). Rui throws out more threads. Tanjiro (don't stop! Keep running! If you stop now, it'll bring on the repercussions of forcibly switching from Water Breathing to Hinokami Dance Breathing! When that happens, I'll be immobile for a while! That's why I gotta do it now! And especially with the Kaio-ken. Run! You gotta protect Nezuko!).Goku goes (you get him Tanjiro). Has he turns Super Saiyan getting ready to end it.

Tanjiro is cutting through the threads. Rui (this guy...). Rui starts jumping back. With Tanjiro in pursuit. Tanjiro (I see the Opening Thread! You gotta take him down now! Even if it means... Getting slashed by him at the same time! Nezuko starts hearing her name. It's her mothers spirit saying Nezuko... Nezuko... Wake up, Nezuko. You have to save your brother. I know you can do it now, Nezuko. Do your best. Please, Nezuko. Or your brother will be killed, too! Nezuko wakes up and goes Blood Demon Art... Exploding Blood! Rui is shocked and Goku smiles. Tanjiro hits Rui's neck. Rui (no way! The threads burned and snapped! Tanjiro says the bond between Nezuko and me... Can't be... Severed by anyone! Has Nezuko's blood on the sword ignites and Rui's head is cut off. But Goku noticed that Rui cut his own head off with threads.

Tanjiro falls to the ground. Nezuko burned herself free from the threads and Goku catches her. And gentally places her on the Ground. Tanjiro goes Nezuko! Nezuko! I won! I won! My father saved me! I'm not sure why I was able to unleash that attack with the kagura that's been in our family for generations. But that was what saved me! I was able to beat him! Huh? I can't see Nezuko and Goku! (Is it because I took way too many breaths? This ringing in my ears is brutal! My whole body is throbbing with pain! I gotta heal up fast! I'm still not done fighting! I gotta save Inosuke! Right away! And why does Goku have that look in his face and why does he have yellow hair and green eyes?). Tanjiro picks up a scent and says the scent of blood just got stronger! (come to think of it, it didn't give off the smell of ash. Don't tell me...). Even know I chopped off his head? Rui with his head on thread says you thought you'd defeated me? Poor kid! Did your pathetic delusion bring you joy? I cut oof my own head myself with my own threads... Before you could chop it off. Enough. I'll kill both you and your sister. I haven't been enraged in a long time.

Tanjiro (get up! Get up right now! Get your breathing under control! Hurry! Right now!). Rui says but I wonder why you're not burning up. It was only me and my threads that caught fire right? Has he reattached his head. I don't know if it's your sister's power, but thanks for getting me super annoyed. Now I can carve you up with no regrets. Tanjiro (if you use the correct breathing technique, it makes no difference how exhausted you are!). Rui goes Blood Demon Art... Murderous Eye Basket! Goku goes are you forgetting someone like me!? Threads start appearing around Tanjiro. Tanjiro (don't panic! Don't let it disrupt your breathing! Calm down... If you can calm down! I can't raise... my arm! Tanjiro gets multiple cuts. Giyu comes in and free Tanjiro from the threads.

Tanjiro (someone else is here. Is it Zenitsu? Giyu says you did a good job holding out until I got here. Leave the rest to me. Tanjiro is shocked. Rui say you're like a endless stream... Of lowlifes always getting in my way! Goku goes straight up to Rui and cuts his head off. Rui dammit so fast I couldn't see him! Goku goes back to base form. Giyu is shocked seeing this. He thinks (did this guy just easily kill a twelve demon moon! And did he go from yellow hair and green eyes to black eyes and hair? And why does he look like Kakarot black?). Goku says sorry I almost lost myself in anger and if I did you all would be dead. So be thankful I kept my anger under control. Tanjiro has managed to crawl to Nezuko.

With the Demon girl running to kill the others. She thinks (I messed up! I messed up! And I was the only one who never messed up until now in this "Pretend Family" game! She has a flashback. She is running away from a group of demon slayers and falls over. One slayer says we finally drove her into a corner! Another one says hey, look at that. They see Rui stood on top of a house roof. The slayer says a demon? The other one says it's just a kid. But even if it looks like a kid, it's still a demon! If we let it, it'll devour humans! Rui says hey... Hey... You want me to save you? In return, will you do what I ask? She says I'll do anything! I'll do whatever you want, so please save me! Rui says then, become a part of my family. She says I will! I'll do it! One of the slayers says what are they talking about? Alright, it's over for you! Rui kills all of the slayers at once. She turns and sees a lot of other demons. Rui appears at her side grabs her hand and says welcome. Starting today, you're part of my family, too.

Rui buts a bit of his blood in a blow mixed with water. The other female demon says drink this. Our family's power belongs to Rui. Since we were all weak demons, Rui shared his power with us. Because Rui is one of that person's favourites, he gets special permission to do this kind of thing. She drinks the blow and starts changing. Rui says do you feel it? You don't have to fear those demon hunters anymore. Now then, time for the finishing touches. She gets her face ripped off. She has changed. Rui says alright, you can look up now. Congratulations. You're truly part of the family now. Another female demon says we're only playing house. She says what? Another female demon continues we have no blood ties. We're just a clan of assorted strangers

Outside they hear another female demon saying I'm so sorry! I'll do better, Rui! I'll practice! Forgive me! I'm so sorry I couldn't do it well! It's just that I revert by accident sometimes! Rui puts a thread around her neck and says I don't want to hear your excuses, Mother. Play role of mother like you should. She says I know what I must do, Rui. The other demon says we were all so scared of the demon hunters and just wanted companions. It's not like we wanted to take part in this baffling "Pretend Family" game. But those who fail to go along with Rui's demands and orders get carved up or have their intellect taken from them or get strung up, exposed to the sunlight. I've had enough of this.

The demon having the flashback says I'm going to pretend I never heard you say that– the other demon says I know you're not a fool. Unlike all the others. Let's run away together. I wouldn't say this to anyone but you. You're the one person I truly think of as my younger sister. They are both running holding hands. Tomorrow, Rui is going to be summoned by that person and descend the mountain. That's our chance to escape. They both run into Rui. And the one having the flashback ends up standing next to Rui and crosses her arms. The other girl is now all bloody and hanged up. Rui says how disappointing. And walks away and she still has her arms crossed. The sun comes up. The demon hanged up starts crying has she burns to death. The demon with the flashback says they were all fools, but I'm not like them! Even so, I messed up!

A small flashback: she says Rui! Rui! Mother's been killed! And our older brother, too! What should we do? Rui says I already know about mother! She continues the demon hunters aren't far behind. Listen... Shouldn't we make a run for it? Don't. Rui slashed her and says you know, don't you? I really hate it when your face reverts. And of course with Tanjiro watching well and Goku who's out of sight. Rui says what are you looking at? This isn't some show, you know. End of flashback. She is still running. She goes (I only got my face slashed, so I got off easy!). Murata who has left the other hunters who are in care. Goes a demon! What the... Has he got wrapped up in a ball of thread. She says it's futile. You'll never cut through them. You see, my Ball of Yarn may feel soft, but it's extremely hard. He shouts whaaa... She says first, the solvent will melt those clothes out of the way. And then, it'll be your turn. You'll be reduced to mush in no time, and then I'll feed on you.

Shinobu appears behind her and says how amazing! Do you release those threads from the palms of your hands? Good evening. The moon is quite lovely tonight don't you think? The demon girl tries attack Shinobu and she just easily dodges using her own kimono kind of like butterfly wings. Shinobu ends up kicking and pinning the demon. Shinobu says I can see you have no intention of being my friend. The girl demon says W-W-Wait! I beg of you! I'm being forced to do this! If I defy him I'll be slashed to shreds! Shinobu says is that right? That does sound tragic! I'll spare you! Let's be friends! The demon girls says you're going to spare me? Shinobu says yes! But in order for us to be friends, I must ask you a few questions. Sweet young girl, how many people have you killed? The demon girl says five. While starting to cry. But I was ordered to! I had no choice! Shinobu says there's no need to lie about it. Because I already know. Help m! Somebody! Coming from the Yarn ball. Shinobu continues that spell you cast to turn one of our men into a cocoon wa3s most impressive! You've devoured at least eighty humans, haven't you? The demon girl says no, of course I haven't eaten that many. I only killed those five.

Shinobu says but I came here from the west, you know. The west my dear. On the west side of the mountain, I saw hordes of cocoons hanging from the trees. The human captives inside had been liquefied. All massacred. In that spot alone, I counted at least fourteen cocoons. Fourteen humans. All dead. Oh, it's not that I'm angry. I'm only trying to confirm the accurate toll. The demon says what good will it do you to confirm that? Shinobu says you'll receive the penalty you deserve and be reborn! The demon goes penalty? Shinobu says that way, you and I can become friends. If you go unpunished after having taken all these lives, your victims will never get justice. I could gouge out your eyeballs or slash your stomach to rip out your organs. For every person you've killed, I shall torture you. And after you've suffered through all of the pain and agony, your sins will be forgiven. Let's both give it our all! Don't worry! Since you're a demon, my dear, surely it won't kill you and neither will there be any after effects!

The demon girl says who do you think you're kidding? Die! You damn witch! Shinobu dodge the attack and says I can see that we'll never be friends. Oh, what a pity! Has she pulls out her sword. She disappeared out of sight by jumping in high in the air and attacks. The demon girl sees lots of butterflies fly pass her. With one landing on her finger. Which then turns into blood but with blood spreading around her body. Shinobu did Insect Breathing Butterfly Dance... Caprice. There's multiple cut marks on the demon girl. Touches her own neck and thinks (my head... Hasn't been cut off! That's the sword she's using? I see. She's too tiny and has no arm strength, so beheading is beyond her. That's someone I can defeat!) she ends up going into so much pain and looks at her own hand and starts heavily bleeding with purple appearing on her body and falls to the ground dead. Shinobu says you mustn't think you're safe just because you haven't been beheaded. Because there are swordswomen like me who use poison. She skilfully spins her sword and says Demon Slayer Corps, Insect Hashira, Shinobu Kocho. I may be the only swordswomen among the Hashiras unable to decapitate demons, but as I've created a poison lethal to demons, I'm also rather awesome. Oh! Pardon me! You're dead, so you can't hear me, can you? Careless of me! She frees Murata from the Yarn and says are you alright? Murata says just barely! What happened to the demon? Shouldn't you finish it off? Shinobu says I killed her with wisteria poison. She's already dead, so if we leave her, she'll rot. I'm a pharmaceuticals expert! Your clothes did get dissolved, but your body is more or less unscathed! I'm so glad! Murata tries to cover himself and slowly moves away in panic. Shinobu says now then, as for the whereabouts of the demon that forced this girl to do his bidding... Did Tomioka beat me to it, then?

Going back a bit with Tanjiro, Nezuko, Giyu and Goku:

Tanjiro is go Nezuko... Nezuko! Has Goku chopped Rui's head off surprising Giyu. Rui thinks (I'll kill them! I'll kill them! I'll kill those siblings no matter what! Siblings!). Rui has a flashback mother demon says what is it that you want to do, Rui? What do you mean by "family"? Rui says I don't know. Because I have no memories of when I was human. She says Is that why you made us pretend to be your family? Rui respond is I thought that if I could feel a family bond, my memories would come back. The bond of a real family... While seeing Tanjiro with Nezuko and Goku standing close to them. That's right. I... Tanjiro says Nezuko!

Meanwhile in the Dragon Ball Universe:

Gohan goes hey Bulma when is the machine going to be ready? Bulma says well it's finished being built but it would take a while to full it up with fuel. Gohan asks why would it take so long? Bulma answers by saying well it needs enough fuel to do four trips. Gohan goes why four trips? Bulma says well one trip to the other dimension will take you to there time that's on par with ours. So the second trip will be going into that dimensions past where Goku is. Gohan says oh and the other two are return back to that dimensions time on par with ours and the fourth one is to get back home. Bulma says that's right. Gohan says how long is left? Bulma says a roundabout so where between one to two weeks. Gohan says somewhere between one to two weeks oh man well I better get some training in. Tell me when it's ready. Bulma says don't worry I will.

Back to the Kimetsu No Yaiba Universe:

Rui has a flashback of this human memories. There's three kids playing in the snow. A human Rui is watching them. He tries walking towards them and trips over his own feet and starts coughing because of the cold and roles over and looks at the beautiful clear sky. Someone says Rui! Rui! Rui! Has they ran up to him. She says what are you doing? You know you're not supposed to be outside! Rui says I was always very frail ever since I was born. I'd never even run. Just walking was a struggle. Until Master Muzan appeared. Muzan says you pitiful thing. Let me save you. Rui continues my parents weren't happy about it. Because now that I'd acquired a strong body, I could never expose myself to sunlight, and I had to devour humans. Rui's father says what have you done? What on earth have you done? Rui! Rui's mother is crying behind his father.

Rui goes (Long ago, I heard a wonderful story. There was once a father who died trying to save his drowning child. I was deeply moved. Such astounding parental love. And such a bond, as well. This father who drowned in the river had fulfilled his role as a parent. And yet, for some reason, my own parents... My own parents tried to... Kill me. All my mother did was sob, never lifting a finger to protect me as I was about to be killed. Rui woke up in bed just to see his own dad stab him. At night Rui looks up to the moon after he killed his own father and his mother is slowly dying. Rui goes (they must have been imposters. The bond between us wasn't real. He looks at his dying mother who manages to say sorry... Rui (she's saying something. So, she's still alive?). She continues sorry for not giving you a strong, healthy body. I'm so sorry. This shocked Rui. Rui goes (those were my mother's last words before she died. She died.). Rui then remembers what his father said before he got stabbed. He said it's all right, Rui! We're going to die with you! Rui goes (I was so enraged that he'd tried to kill me that my father's words went over my head. But in that moment, I realised that he meant to die with me to atone for my sin of having murdered another. It was a genuine bond. And that night, I severed it with my own two hands. Even so, Master Muzan gave me words of encouragement.).

Muzan said it was your parents' fault for refusing to accept you. Take pride in your own strength. Rui goes (I had no other choice but to look at it that way. I couldn't bear the weight of what I'd done.). Rui held his head in frustration. Rui continues (even knowing that I only had myself to blame...). Rui's head as hit the floor. With his disappearing body going towards Tanjiro and Nezuko. He continues (every single day... I miss my parents so much that I could barely stand it. Even after creating a fake family, the feeling of emptiness wouldn't go away. Since I was the one with the most power, there was no one who could protect me... who could shield me. The more powerful I became, the less I remembered about being a human.). Giyu is watching the body move towards Tanjiro, Nezuko and Goku. Rui continues (and I was losing sight of what it was that I wanted to do. Seeking a bond that I could never claim for myself.). His body falls over and lifts up his hand but his body is dying to fast. Rui (even though it was simply out of my reach no matter how I strained to get my hands on it.). Tanjiro turns around and sees the dying body close to him.

Tanjiro thinks (that small body... is giving off a scent of a grief too overwhelming for him to bear.). This causes Tanjiro to start crying. Goku goes (I sense an overwhelming amount of grief which is for him to bear.) Goku also has started crying. Both Goku and Tanjiro put a hand on the dying body. Rui goes (so warm. Both hands are as gentle as sunlight. Now I remember as clear as day. What I wanted was to apologise.). Goku quickly gets a blood sample before the body fully disappeared. The cat appeared and Goku put the sample in the bag on it's back and it disappears going back to Tamayo. Rui continues (I'm sorry. I was... I was the to blame for it all. I hope you can forgive me. But since I've killed scores of people, I'm going to hell, aren't I? Father... Mother... I can't go to the same place as you, can I?). He hears his father say that's not true. We'll be going together even if it's to Hell. Rui... Rui says Father... Mother... She says Rui... No matter where you go, we'll be with you. Has the demon disappears away from him. He cries. They all hug and Rui says it was all... It was all my fault! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Has there all go together. Rui's body has finally disappeared.

Giyu stands on the clothes that only remain. Tanjiro gasps. Giyu says don't waste any sympathy on a demon that devoured humans. It doesn't matter if it looks like a child. It's still a hideous monster that's lived for decades. Tanjiro says to avenge the people who were killed, to make sure there are no more victims, of course, I'll bring my blade down on any demon's neck without mercy! But as for those for whom being a demon meant despair, those who regretted their own actions... I will never trample over them! Because demons were once human, too! Just like me, they were human, too! Please step off him! They're not hideous monsters at all! Demons are hopeless creatures! They're tragic creatures! Goku says I agree with everything Tanjiro said and my race conquered planets and I never ended up like them. I even made one turn good and he's my rival that I train with and he even has a family. Heck even Goku Black turned good and he became a Demon Hunter.

Giyu looks down and sees Nezuko and realises and goes you're... Has he remembers when he met them both. But Shinobu comes in trying to kill Nezuko causing Tanjiro to panic. But Giyu protects them. Goku thinks (just great I have to protect Nezuko even more now! Why can't I get a period of peace!). Shinobu says oh my... Why would you get in my way, Tomioka? After telling me that we could never be friends with demons... How should I put this? That's exactly why... No one likes you, you know.

Meanwhile where Zenitsu is Demon Slayer Corps staff are curing people. The staff person says man, this antidote of Lady Kocho's is effective! A female staff member says that's right. And she prepared it after one look at this situation. She's truly amazing. That goes for him, too. Zenitsu is being taken down on a stretcher. The staff member says oh, that guy? The female says because he defeated that demon, it slowed the circulation of the poison just a bit. Another staff member says alright! This should do it! Zenitsu's whole body is wrapped up and has a piece of paper saying finished treatment on it. He says looking good! Chances are, they'll all pull through. Same with all of other injured slayers we helped. The female staff member says still, I'd like to wrap things up quickly and leave this place as soon as possible, wouldn't you? The guy says yeah, me, too. I mean, this place really, really stinks!

Back to Tanjiro, Nezuko, Goku, Giyu and Shinobu:

Shinobu says alright, Tomioka, please move out of the way. Giyu says I'm not... I'm not disliked by people. This really shock Tanjiro, Shinobu and Goku. Shinobu says well, I'm sorry. You haven't even realised that people don't like you, then? That was uncalled for. Please forgive me. This really shocks Giyu, Tanjiro and Goku. Tanjiro and Goku look at Giyu. Shinobu says little boy and his friend! Yes said Tanjiro and Goku! Shinobu says what you're protecting there is a demon. I don't want you both to get hurt, so please move away. Tanjiro says You're mistaken! I mean, you're not mistaken, but... she's my kid sister! She's my kid sister, so... You see... Shinobu says is that right? Poor thing. In that case, I shall use a gentle toxin to kill her, so she won't suffer, alright? Goku says wow I promised to protect her and I may have broken a promise in an other dimension but I won't fail to keep this one, you heard me!

Shinobu goes wait a minute you look like Kakarot Black! Goku says that's because who you call Kakarot Black was a rouge Supreme Kia that stolen by body from a different timeline. Shinobu says I have no Idea what your talking about. Giyu says to Tanjiro can you move? Make yourself move even if you can't move. Take your sister and run. Tanjiro says Tomioka... Sorry for the trouble! Thank you very much! Tanjiro starts running off carrying Nezuko in his arms and Goku is along side him. Shinobu says isn't that against the Corps rules? Giyu stares at Shinobu. Tanjiro and Goku are running. Tanjiro grabs Nezuko's box. Tanjiro (my whole body is aching! It's so painful! I want to scream from the pain! Deal with it! Deal with it! Deal with it! Deal with it! Deal with it! Deal with it!). Nezuko wakes up. Goku thinks (I am too tried and drained but I have to keep my promise.). Tanjiro and Goku both think (does this mean we both have to quit the Demon Slayer Corps?). Tanjiro (even if she's my sister, there's no way they'd let one or two of their swordsmen travel with a demon!). Goku (even know I don't want Nezuko to die to any other slayers even know they don't stand a chance against me). Goku goes Tanjiro look out someone is jumping through the trees. Tanjiro says thanks for the warning.

Shinobu and Giyu are still fighting. Shinobu says I see you're dead serious, Tomioka. Who would've thought a Hashira would ever defend a demon? Tomioka doesn't say anything. Shinobu says whether you're dead serious or not, I'm not going to join you in stalling for time. So, good day to you. She starts jumping tree to tree. Giyu runs after her. She says is that your attempt at catching up with me? She jumps so high and says I don't mind you trying to stop me, but don't forget about the other one! Shinobu is shocked that Giyu managed to jump so God dam high.

Tanjiro goes (don't stop running! Keep moving! You gotta run away as far as you can! But I might not be able too. With someone jumping tree to tree after us.). A young girl managed to land and hit Tanjiro's back and Goku shouts Tanjiro! Tanjiro is on the floor and goes (not good! What happened? It was all I could do to just keep running! Nezuko!). He sees the girl. (A Demon Slayer!). The girl is ready to kill Nezuko. Tanjiro drags her back. Tanjiro says run, Nezuko! Run! Make a run for it! Don't get caught matter what! Hurry. The girl knocks Tanjiro out. Goku grabs her and says you have to go through me to get her. But Goku is so low on Energy that the girl managed to hit Goku on a part of his neck also knocking him out. The girl catches up to Nezuko. Nezuko looks back and turns into a toddler avoiding getting hit. The girl goes (she shrunk and turned into a child.). Nezuko continues to run. Dodging sword swings. The girl thinks (all she's doing is running away. Not a single attack. But why? No need to ponder. My only job is to slay this demon as I was told.). Goku comes back around and says dammit. And. Nezuko is running with her arms it a T position. It would be better if she ran with her arms behind her back for more speed like I do when I can't fly. Plus I know a Ninja who runs like I do but I can't remember his name. Anyway I am pooped and I am to tried and hungry that I might pass out. Goku passed out to Hunger and tiredness.

Giyu has hold of Shinobu. Shinobu says Tomioka? Are you listening, Tomioka. Since the purpose of my attack was to slay a demon and therefore justified, I don't believe it could be constructed as a violation. But what you're doing is against the Crops rules. You're preventing me from slaying a demon. Just what are your intentions here? Giyu ends up with a certain look on this face. She continues don't you have anything to say? This is your final warning. They didn't even know that Goku Black is flying above watching the situation. She says give me a reason at least. Two crows are watching. Goku Black stays out of sight listening. Giyu says if I'm remembering this right, it was two years ago. She says please don't start some long, rambling story that far back in time. Are you just being spiteful? Are you perhaps still angry that I pointed out how people don't like you? Giyu is shocked by this. They both hear a familiar voice saying let him say about the story! They both go that voice it can't be or is it someone else who's interested in hearing it. The voice said I am interested. Shinobu goes no. A blade is outside of Shinobu's sandal. Giyu noticed. But a crow arrives saying Message! Message! Goku Black disappeared using instant transmission.

The crow goes I have a message from headquarters! Tanjiro, Goku and Nezuko are to be taken into custody and brought back to headquarters! Giyu and Shinobu are shocked at the message. Tanjiro, Goku and the demon, Nezuko, are to be taken into custody and brought back to headquarters. Tanjiro, dressed in a checkered haori, with a scar on his forehead! Goku who's dressed in orange haori, with weird spiky hair! Nezuko, a demon girl with a bamboo muzzle! Bring them back! Bring them back! The girl goes are you Nezuko? She nodes yes. Giyu and Shinobu have put there swords back in there holders. The crow goes bring them back! Bring them back! Tanjiro, dressed in a checkered haori with a scar on his forehead! Goku dressed in a orange haori, and with weird spiky hair! Nezuko, a demon girl with a bamboo muzzle! Bring them back! Bring them back!

Goku Black goes they where the only energy I could lock on to use instant transmission to escape the place believed to be called the infinite fortress. Thank God I got it back when I was hiding for so long. It's a pain not being able to be out in the sun. And I find it a pain not to go after human blood especially with the combination of Demon and Saiyan hunger and I am meant to be a supreme Kia for crying out loud. Well a least I secretly killed some demons protecting so villages until I got trapped in that building. I am happy that I got away.

Muzan goes how did that traitor get away and most importantly out of the infinite fortress. No one has ever escape out of here this is a first.

Bardock is in a area hidden from the sun for Goku Black's safety. Goku Black appears and Bardock goes were have you been? Black says I will tell you what happened after you left to check on your son.

Flashback:

Black goes alright Bardock good luck helping your son! Thanks said Bardock. Black goes well I sense a demon close to a village and it's night time. Oh well I guess I have another village to save from demons even know I think they are on a look out for me. Never mind it's not like they can catch me. Black arrives at the Village. The demon there is thinking (right so if that traitor comes I have to try and get this beacon on him). The demon sees Black and says wow I am that lucky. Black goes stop there I don't want you to harm anyone in that village. Black engages the demon easliy chopping it's head off but Black goes dammit what's this he put on me. Oh no it's so kind of beacon. Goku Black all of a sudden finds himself in the Infinite Fortress. Uh what is this place and did the room just switch wait I am being teleported by a sound of an musical instrument. Muzan says finally we have caught you traitor. Black tries to fly away and Muzan says you can't escape no matter how fast you are! I want to kill you personally by destroying your cells by my hand since you somehow broke free from my curse. But your not the only one who broke free but I need to find out more information about that demon first.

Black goes well I can't let you touch me them which is easy since I can fly. Oh crap is that a mouth coming out of his hand? Black avoids getting hit by a sword. Black says I got to get going. (Dammit I currently can't lock on to any ki's to escape. Wait I found two ki's.). Bye Muzan I will get my revenge. Black removes the Beacon and disappeared using Instant Transmission. End of Flashback.

Black says well before here I did end up at the mountain you left. I did see two Demon Hashiras fighting each other I did sense Goku there but weak to weak to lock on to so I think they might have been arguing about the demon girl Goku and Tanjiro are travelling with. I left after a crow arrived with a message and here I am now with you again thankfully. Bardock says well at least I know your a Target but I might have to keep an eye on my son while staying out of sight. Black says good luck with that you might need it. Bardock says thanks. But now let's get on with so training! Black says agreed.

Back at Mt. Natagumo:

People who work with Demon Slayer Corps says he has a scar on his forehead. And this guy has weird spiky hair. Alright, take them both into custody. Look. His jawbone seems to be broken, doesn't it? And this guy has damaged ribs and leg. The guy says I feel bad about tying them up. Another male staff go wh-who the hell is this? I don't know. A demon? Couldn't be, right? Is it a human? He's wearing our uniform trousers while poking with a stick. Oh hey, this is a mask! He's a human! All right, let's bring him in. This guy's really banged up! Why's he strung up like this? Inosuke mind (there was nothing I could do... On my own, I couldn't bring down even a single demon! You know what? Maybe I'm not that strong.

Zenitsu is awake with wrapped up with Chuntaro happily chirp on his head. Zenitsu says they wrapped us up like mummies. (Who are these people? They seem to be cleaning up this place really efficiently. And that girl there... Isn't she the girl from the Final Selection? She has the same kind of hair ornament as the lady who wrapped us up.). A guy asks the girl should we bring them to the Butterfly Mansion, as well? She says yes, bring all of the wounded to our place. I'll be hunting down demons in the area so you can work without any worries. Zenitsu thinks (come to think of it, I've heard about them. The cleanup crew, the Kakushis. The unit that cleans up after the Demon Slayer Corps battles demons. They say that most of its members are people who have no swordsmanship skills.). Chuntaro chirps and Zenitsu looks the sun is rising. Zenitsu says it's daybreak. Giyu and Shinobu are both walking and Shinobu stops and looks at the sun rise. The other girl is also looking at the sun rise. Three people are walking one is carrying Tanjiro, another one carrying Goku and another with Nezuko in her box on their back. Everyone leaves the mountain.

Someone is saying wake up. Hey, I said wake up! Wake... Hey! Both of you! Come on, you both! Come on! Are you both going to sleep all day? Wake the hell up, you two! Tanjiro and Goku both wake up. The guy says you both are in the presence of the Hashiras!

TBC

Author notes: okay I am to date with the manga which is why Bardock part saw what happens then in the future. He mostly sees what Muzan did to the pillars and others in Chapter 191 and sees Goku underneath Cell, yes Cell. But Bardock vision ended so he didn't see Tanjiro get back into the battle and he also doesn't know what happens with his son Goku.

This chapter has took me longer to do than I thought it would. I so far have been using the anime and making changes but Episode 19, 20 and part of 21 made me cry still and I rarely cry. I also did have to do something with Goku Black.

Yes there is also an evil Goku that Fu is going sent after Goku. How and Dragon Ball Z Broly is going to be involved in the train arc and there's going to be some twists in there that changes lots of things.

Chapter 8 will take some time too do. I mostly work on this fanfiction when I am bored and that's being happening a lot more than normal. But I am still waiting for the Hospital to go for brain scans but there taking a painful time. So Chapter 8 will contain episodes 22, 23, 24, 25 and 26 with changes. Mostly with the trial. I don't know when I will have that done and released. So please be patience. I will also have to part use the Manga for the train arc. I already have plans on what Goku's dream is going to be.

I am also sorry this chapter came out late mostly because of life things first and that I have started to make the Five Way crossover so I don't forget about it and how I planned that out. But this fanfiction has to be finished first along with the second one allowing the five way one to make sense.
