[Destructive Death: Final Form: Blue Silver Chaotic Afterglow]
This technique is similar in nature to Ryuji's Water Breathing, Twelfth Form: Dark Blade Slaughter; both are defensive counter-attacks. However, Blue Silver Chaotic Afterglow has a much wider area of effect.
"Water Breathing, Twelfth Form, Dark Blade Slaughter!"
Ryuji immediately used Dark Blade Slaughter to create a protective shield of water blades.
Despite this protection, Ryuji temporarily abandoned the idea of a decisive attack on Upper Rank Three.
Continuing the attack would be extremely risky, especially with Upper Rank Three's ice blades.
Furthermore, Upper Rank Three, having only lost a leg, still retained his fighting ability. Pressing too hard would only give him an opportunity.
After several exchanges, Ryuji understood that Upper Rank Three was exceptionally skilled at seizing opportunities.
Therefore, in his current state, Ryuji wouldn't use his usual aggressive style.
Protected by Dark Blade Slaughter, Ryuji quickly distanced himself from Upper Rank Three. However, Blue-Eyed Chaotic Residual Light was still active, and numerous ice blades shot out from the ice flower compass beneath Upper Rank Three's feet.
Once the water blade shield dissipated, Ryuji relied on agility and precise counter-attacks to deflect the incoming ice blades.
The derailed train's body was already struck by numerous ice blades—some embedded, others piercing through to the interior.
Fortunately, Tanjiro and Zenitsu had already moved the passengers to safety; otherwise, there would have been casualties.
Seeing Ryuji forced back, Upper Rank Three secretly breathed a sigh of relief; he had almost been defeated.
However, Upper Rank Three was puzzled. Why was his regeneration suppressed in Ryuji's presence? Why couldn't he immediately regenerate his severed limb at a crucial moment?
In a high-level duel, even a brief delay could drastically change the outcome.
The previous exchange was a perfect example. If Upper Rank Three had been able to regenerate his limb immediately, he would have maintained the initiative.
Even facing Ryuji's counterattack, Upper Rank Three wouldn't have retreated hastily but would have continued to press his advantage. He understood that his severed leg was Ryuji's opening for victory.
In such an intense battle, Upper Rank Three lacked the concentration to regenerate, especially with the regeneration suppression.
"You're strong! You forced me to use my ultimate technique!" Upper Rank Three, no longer displaying his previous composure, spoke without his usual smirk.
"I want to know if your blade is poisoned? Why can't my wounds regenerate immediately?!" Upper Rank Three voiced his question, though he didn't expect an answer.
