Chapter 994

But later, even when the Hashira attacked together, they could not do anything to Karl.

Even Obanai Iguro's arm was shattered.

This kind of strength made the Master feel fear.

Such strength, this kind of power.

The so-called Twelve Kizuki.

Even the progenitor of demons, the most powerful demon, Muzan Kibutsuji, could not achieve this level.

To put it bluntly.

The Master believed that Karl was even more powerful than Muzan Kibutsuji.

Because he had achieved things that Muzan Kibutsuji could not.

Therefore, although he was very heartbroken over the death of the Hashira.

For the sake of the lives of the remaining Hashira present, and even the lives of all the members of the Demon Slayer Corps.

The Master chose to ignore the deaths of the Wind Hashira and the Sound Hashira.

He did not issue an order to attack Karl.

He only hoped that Karl would not wipe out the Demon Slayer Corps.

Of course, he actually had some confidence in this point.

Because judging by the speed at which the other party killed the two Hashira.

This mysterious figure who suddenly appeared had the ability to kill all the Hashira.

But the other party did not make a move and even said things like "I don't want to kill you."

Furthermore, this person seemed to be acquainted with Tanjiro.

These circumstances gave the Master a glimmer of confidence that Karl would not exterminate the Demon Slayer Corps.

Of course, it was only a glimmer.

After all, he was not the other party and could not guarantee it.

All the Master could do now was try his best not to be hostile toward Karl and keep the Hashira under control.

However, many people did not understand his approach.

Kyojuro Rengoku could not help but speak up, "But..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he was stopped by Shinobu Kocho, who was nearby, "Mr. Rengoku, would you please follow the Master's orders?" Kyojuro Rengoku looked at Shinobu Kocho in surprise upon hearing this.

He did not expect Shinobu Kocho to say such a thing.

Giyu Tomioka also spoke up: "Rengoku, I also hope we do not make a move against that person for now." Kyojuro Rengoku glanced at him.

He discovered that Giyu Tomioka's eyes revealed a serious look.

Just like Shinobu Kocho before him.

"..."

Kyojuro Rengoku was silent for a moment before nodding and saying: "I understand..."

Then, he said nothing more.

In reality.

If the Master, who was not good at fighting, knew this.

How could the Hashira not know?

As the parties involved, they knew Karl's strength better than anyone.

After all, they were the ones who had truly fought Karl.

They watched with their own eyes as the Wind Hashira and Sound Hashira died, and their own attacks were ineffective.

The Hashira certainly knew that Karl was very strong.

Giyu Tomioka knew it, and Shinobu Kocho knew it.

They could not win.

They really could not win; there was no hope.

That was why they had that reaction.
