Chapter 255 MJ

Rengoku looked at the helpless demon. He couldn't believe that there was a day when someone could do something like this to a demon.

"Is this really the slasher?"

Rengoku asked Ichigo.

"Yes, I think he is the one we are trying to find, as he likes slashing things."

Ichigo had locked away all of his power so he was no different from ordinary humans.

"D—Demon, there are really demons in this world."

Fuku, the young girl who sold Rengoku snacks, accidentally saw Ichigo drag the demon to the train station when she was going home. And because she couldn't stand her curiosity, she followed him to the train station.

Ichigo knew that she had followed him, but he didn't say anything. It was better for her to follow him rather than do something dangerous.

"Yes, the demons are real, so from now on you have to be careful, understand? Don't follow someone who drags the demon anywhere." Ichigo said to the young girl.

She nodded her head quickly, and she said that she would listen to him.

"That's a good girl."

Ichigo smiled and couldn't help but pat her head. Fuku felt shy but didn't refuse his head-patting, as she felt it was good.

"Head—pat"

Nezuko, who was on his side, felt jealous, so she came in between them. Ichigo thought the jealous Nezuko was cute, so he patted her head as well.

"You are really spoiled, are you, Nezuko?"

Of course, Zenitsu was still crying bloody tears while Inosuke ate snacks like nothing happened. Tanjirou was there, and he just looked at the demon curiously. He wondered if he were to fight with the demon, would he be able to defeat it.

"Kill me human! No matter what you do to me, I will never tell you anything."

The demon was loyal to his progenitor. He would rather die than tell them anything.

"Really, then what about this?"

Ichigo thrust his hand through his chest, and then he pulled his soul out of his body. The demon in soul form screamed in agony as Ichigo held him tightly in his grasp.

"You were saying?" Ichigo's eyes glinted with cruelty.

He might have a soft heart, but that was only for younger sisters.

"I will never!"

"Such a good subordinate. However, you chose the wrong person to put your devotion into."

Ichigo didn't need to ask him anything. He found a trace of someone inside his soul. He then traced it and found the owner of this hidden soul piece.

It was a man wearing clothes like Michael Jackson.

"MJ?"

Ichigo was surprised, and Michael Jackson was shocked. He could perceive that someone was looking at him.

And when he looked back, he saw an endless abyss with a pair of enormous eyes staring at him menacingly.

The counterfeit MJ immediately cut off the connection. Ichigo could see that he vomited a large amount of blood from doing so.

"Well, he was smart enough to cut off the connection before I could see where he was. Hum, he was inside a place that was in a separate space. It would be troublesome if I wanted to find him."

Ichigo couldn't control the authority of space and time yet.

Rengoku didn't know what he did to the soul of the demon, and he didn't know who or what MJ was, but he believed that Ichigo had extracted information from the soul of the demon.

And if Ichigo couldn't get any information, then it was useless for him to try.

"Ichigo-sama, I think we can't find any more information from him. Should we end him now?"

Rengoku didn't think they could get any information from the demon. This wasn't the first time he caught a demon to interrogate them. Only the demons of the upper moon rank should hold important information.

Ichigo nodded. Now the demon was useless, as he wouldn't tell them anything, and he didn't know anything worth their time. Ichigo put his soul back into his body, then, with a swift motion, ended him with his POD.

Rengoku and everyone thought they were used to Ichigo's power but seeing POD, they were shocked once again.

Ichigo didn't need Nijirin to kill a demon. He disintegrated him into nothingness with his dark crimson energy.

"I have dealt with the slasher, but I think there is something more to it. I think we should investigate further. There might be a lower moon demon or an upper moon rank demon who was behind him."

Ichigo wanted to see the MJ of this world again to see where he was. He had to catch a stronger demon, so MJ couldn't cut off the connection easily.

Rengoku nodded, as he also thought the same as Ichigo.

"Then we will wait here until the Mugen train operates again. Then we will catch the rest of the demons."

They would stay at the inn near the train station and wait for the Mugen train to operate again.
