Demon Slayer: The Journey That Began When I Became Yoriichi's Sister

Chapter 291 He Can Hear

Before long, she looked up at everyone, especially Ubuyashiki Amane, whose calm expression was tinged with a hint of expectation in her eyes.

He said, "This idea is worth a try."

"At least it won't get worse, will it?"

"Then I'll trouble you, Miss Tamayo and..." Ubuyashiki Amane showed a hint of joy as she glanced at everyone.

Yuko interrupted her: "Don't say thank you. If he dies, who will command the battle against Muzan?"

Ubuyashiki Amane smiled slightly and said nothing more.

Yu Zi clapped her hands: "Then let's not delay, let's give them anesthesia first."

"Cough cough..." Kagaya Ubuyashiki coughed twice and said weakly, "Aren't you going to ask for my opinion?"

"Let's wait until you can stand up before giving your opinion," Yu Zi glanced back at him and said calmly. "If word gets out that you're lying here like this, people will say I'm bullying you."

"Cough cough cough..." Kagaya Ubuyashiki coughed even more violently.

What? If he could stand up, would he be able to beat you or something?

Seeing that her husband seemed to have been through a lot, Ubuyashiki Amane opened her mouth as if to say something but then stopped herself.

Tamayo smiled subtly: "Let's try it on your arm first, and see if we can use your blood to complete the regeneration."

“There shouldn’t be any problem with that,” said Shinobu Kocho. “We just tried it with our lord.”

"We didn't peel or cut the meat earlier, so let's be on the safe side."

From a professional standpoint, let's try removing one of Kagaya Ubuyashiki's arms first.

Although the presence of Yuko's blood meant that even a less-than-ideal experimental environment wouldn't matter, adhering to professional principles, the group still carried Ubuyashiki Kagaya to the operating room.

"This is my first time entering the operating room as an assistant. Are there any rules I need to follow?" Yu Zi looked around curiously, reaching for her white gloves. "Like, wearing white gloves or something?"

Tamayo slapped her hand away, snatched the white glove that had escaped the attack, and said indifferently, "No need, whatever makes you happy."

Yu Zi clicked her tongue in annoyance and awkwardly withdrew her hand.

"Don't beg me when they're going to bleed me later."

Tamayo ignored her and put on her white gloves, saying, "It doesn't matter, let's just watch him die."

Ubuyashiki Yaoya: "..."

He only received local anesthesia, not general anesthesia.

He's just a little slow at speaking, but he can hear!

……

Never mind, let's just pretend we didn't hear it.

Shinobu Kocho gave an awkward, ambiguous smile.

Theoretically, she shouldn't be laughing, but she just couldn't help it.

These two are so interesting.

Seeing how naturally and playfully they communicated, Shinobu Kocho felt a pang of envy.

But then I thought about it again, and Tamayo probably never saw Ikuko's cute side either.

Uh-huh.

She didn't even know that Yuko could grow bigger or smaller.

Shinobu Kocho had already mentally rehearsed the entire plot, completely ignoring the fact that her lord had been ridiculed.

Tamayo slowly and methodically dismantled the flesh on Kagaya Ubuyashiki's arm, the sharp scalpel slicing away piece by piece the rotting, decaying flesh that exuded a putrid stench, the blood inside even turning a darker color.

Tamayo frowned even more deeply. She had seen many difficult and complicated diseases over the centuries, but this was the first time she had ever seen such a strange curse.

"Give it a try." Tamayo first used a scalpel to make what appeared to be a serious cut on Kagaya Ubuyashiki's arm.

The putrid, foul-smelling blood flowed out like rotten water from a sewer.

Yuko quickly manipulated the bloodline to begin repair.

Tamayo was not surprised to see these blood-red threads, because she had also discovered changes in Ikuko's blood while studying it.

As soon as Yuko's blood touched the putrid blood on Kagaya Ubuyashiki's arm, it quickly spread and covered it, suppressing the putrid blood, and the flesh on his arm regenerated rapidly.

Unlike the rotten purple patches, the regenerated flesh was the same color as normal flesh.

Soon, the patch of flesh on Kagaya Ubuyashiki's arm completely returned to its healthy color.

Shinobu Kocho's face lit up with delight: "It worked."

As the head of the Demon Slayer Corps, Kagaya Ubuyashiki received a great deal of kindness from both ordinary swordsmen and Pillars.

No swordsman wished he could recover his health.

Tamayo examined it closely for a few minutes, but no change occurred in the arm.

"Prepare the anesthetic."

It is indeed possible to delay the curse of Ubuyashiki through Ikuko's blood.

……

This procedure requires removing most of the rotten flesh from Kagaya Ubuyashiki's body. However, since there is no precision involved and it is done under general anesthesia, even if too much is cut, there will be no pain. Ikuko's blood will completely restore the body once it is applied.

When Tamayo removes a portion of the rotten flesh, Ikuko quickly replenishes the blood.

Otherwise, if you wait until the person is bleeding profusely before treating them, they will probably have bled to death and become a dried-up corpse.

Aside from being somewhat too gory and unsuitable for children to watch, the surgery progressed very smoothly.

By the time the last bit of tissue on the body's surface was repaired, it had unknowingly turned from afternoon into morning.

Looking at Kagaya Ubuyashiki, whose body had returned to its flesh-colored state, Yuko couldn't help but sigh, "Do you think that if people find out what my blood is used for, they might capture me and use me for experiments?"

Tamayo and Shinobu Kocho were slightly taken aback, and both cast strange glances at each other.

"...Why are you looking at me?" Yu Zi was a beat slow to react, blinking before she realized what was happening.

It seems like I've already been experimented on...

Yu Zi's face darkened, and she promptly shut her mouth.

Shinobu Kocho observed Kagaya Ubuyashiki's physical condition: "He looks no different from an ordinary person now, but the curse deep beneath his skin has seeped into his bones."

Tamayo added, "Fortunately, we have Ikuko, so to some extent, the curse of the Ubuyashiki family's short lifespan has been half resolved."

Yu Zi raised an eyebrow: "What kind of solution is this?"

"With your blood supply, at least I wouldn't have died so young."

"..."

Forget it, she can't handle another one.

As if she had heard what Ikuko was thinking, Tamayo casually picked up a plate filled with rotten flesh that had been cut from Kagaya Ubuyashiki's body and handed it to Ikuko.

"Eat if you're hungry."

Yuko's face darkened: "I think it would be better to leave such delicious food to you."

Spare her, she's about to throw up just from the smell.

As it turns out, even ghosts can't withstand this thing.

She felt that being hungry might be more comfortable than eating this.

Anyone who has ever played with a pet knows that you can just tease it casually; there's no need to keep teasing it.

Otherwise, it may become distant from you.

Tamayo took the plate back and said to Shinobu Kocho, "Push him out."

"Once you're fully awake, you should be able to run and jump again. If you're still worried, you can rest for a couple of days."

Shinobu Kocho smiled slightly: "Then let's rest for a couple of days."
