Pitou vs(?) Hantengu

"HIIIII!!!!! What was that?! Where am I?! Ohhh why don't people just leave me alone, why did Lord Muzan have to call little ol me to this place?!?! I'm not a fighter! I'm more of a coward anyway…. I don't know why he would call me anyway…. Maybe he just wanted me to get killed by the Demon King of the West?!?! NOOOOOO!!!!! I DON'T WANT TO DIE!!!!!!" The rather depressed and cowardly Upper Moon 4, Hatengu, shouted out in fear of death that was looming over him.

"…. You know your a rather large Crybaby for an Upper Moon you know that?" He suddenly hears a woman's voice and jumps up in fright and crawls rapidly backwards away from her.

"Who Are You! When did you get here?!?! Are you here to kill me too?!?! Why! Why! Why! I-I never did anything wrong to you did I?!" He says rather fearfully as he holds his arms up in front of his face.

Pitou put her finger to her chin to think as she sat down to think, "Hmmm…. No you haven't done anything to make me attack or hurt you…." She said as her tail lazily moved back and forth.

"Right? Right! You see I'm right! I haven't done anything to you so you don't need to attack me right? Right?!" Hatengu said back relieved but still scared as he could feel the strength from the woman before him.

"No I don't need to attack you, in fact I'm a lazy person by nature, after all I am part cat…." She says before changing position to lying down on her side as she was getting sleepy from this 'fight' being uneventful.

"See! That's great! Even better that your a…. A cat person?" He says excitedly as he won't die, hopefully, before stopping as he remembers part of what she said and gets a better look at her.

Cat ears, and a moving cat tail, there were a few strange things but what he was seeing was a real life cat person and was genuinely surprised, even showing through his naturally cowardly personality.

"…. C-can I touch your ears?"

"…."

"…."

"No."

"Ugh!" He falls over dramatically as he clenches his chest as if he got shot through the chest.

"It's the lump isn't it?! It's because I'm ugly that you don't want me touching you isn't it?! I didn't choose to look like this you know?! Even when I was in my 30's when I was a human I looked like a malformed, decrepit old man! I didn't choose this you know!" He says as he voices his regrets and wails as his hits the floor with his fists In frustration for his bad looks.

"The only man who can touch my ears is my Lord and no one else, and your right it is also because your ugly that I really don't want you even thinking about touching me either." She said deciding to lay out the brutal truth to him as well.

"UGGGGHHH!!!!" He clenches his chest dramatically as he took critical emotional damage from what she said as he fell over and curled up into a ball while he began to shiver a cry to himself.

"Damnit! Why does this happen to me huh?! I was always chased around and bitten by dogs as a kid so I hate dogs and came to love cats, but when I became a demon most cats won't come anywhere near me and just hiss and scratch my face if I try to hold them…. I can't bring myself to kill those adorable little fur balls…. But now hearing from an actual cat person that I'm ugly really hits me in the kokoro…." He said quietly to himself as he began to rock and sob in sadness.

"…. I'm pretty disappointed, I thought someone of the rank of Upper Moon would be strong, but if Muzan allowed you into these ranks then he must be an idiot, no wonder my King will end up killing him soon enough." Pitou was expecting an epic battle between her and one of the Upper Moons, but no she got this instead which was rather upsetting, hopefully this could end Soon and she could go fight one of the other Upper Moons instead.

"Muzan…. Killed….?" He says quietly as he starts scratching at his neck slowly before he starts to forcibly scratch deeper digging into his skin as he starts to rip apart his own flesh.

Suddenly Pitou's instincts kick in as she leaps up and jumps far backwards as she activated her Nen at full power with the use of Terascora upon herself.

"Muzan…. Lord Muzan can't die! I won't allow it you BITCH?!" Hatengu shouts out as he rips off his own head as his body is forcibly split in two as blood splatters everywhere as from the two separated body parts began to change and transform into new but much younger versions of Hatengu himself.

"You seriously pissed me the fuck off! No holding back! We ain't got time to enjoy this bastard Lord Muzan needs us!" One version Hatengu, Seikido, shouts at his other self.

"Ahhh…. I wanted to enjoy myself sometime today, but even that coward wants us to get serious, so who am I to judge?" The other more laid back one, Karaku, says with a shrug before they both proceed to cut off their heads as well.

Seeing this Pitou knew Hatengu was planning something so she kept her focus up to watch the ritual of his to the end.

Soon the two became four, and without saying anything they all re-emerges with one another before a completely new version appeared one that is to say is Hatengu's strongest form, Zohakuten, the personification of Hatengu's Hatred given living form.

"Huh…. I guess you can get serious when you need to you weeping coward, now you can make this interesting at least!" She said as she flexed her muscles to the highest degree as she readied herself to pounce on her prey.

"What did you say cat bitch?! To you just bad mouth my main body?! I'll break your body for that!" Zohakuten shouts out enraged before summoning wooden dragon bodies that appear straight out of the floor themselves before opening their mouths wide preparing their attacks.

*Kuuuuuuuuooooooooooohhhhhhh*

She inhaled as orange lightning wrapped around her body as her arms and legs turned pitch black from getting really serious.

"Now-"

*Boom! Thoom!*

She launched herself with such speed and force that if her old King was alive today he would be proud that she could keep up at his speed.

""DIE!!!"" They both shouted out as her claw swipe and his immense sound wave attack that came out of his mouth just from shouting collided with one another leaving them in a stalemate to see who could attack the other.

"Gotta, I gotta get out of here! Even if I'm a coward I can't let Lord Muzan Die! I-I must help!" A tiny Hatengu said to himself as he ignored the clash between Pitou and his clone as he tried to make a tactical retreat from the room they were in, however….

"What?! N-No L-Let me go! Let me out of here?!?!" He shouted out in vain as his tiny body was dragged into the darkness that brought him here originally before reappearing in the corner of the room but being trapped within a cage of darkness where he couldn't escape.

"Zohakuten! Save me!!!!" The tiny Hatengu shouted out to his clone as they both separated from their confrontation in a draw.

"…." (Zohakuten)

"…." (Pitou)

"H-Hey! Don't look at me like that! I-I was just trying to go help Lord Muzan is all! I don't need you two judging me! Especially you since you are me!"

"…." (x2)

"Stop looking at me with those eyes of Pity!!!!" He shouted out, but then-

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!*

They all look in the same direction, and this freaks out Hatengu even more.

"What are you doing?!?! Hurry up and deal with her! Lord Muzan needs us! I don't want to die today!!!" Hatengu shouted out as the coward he was and he was deathly afraid of death after all.

And so the fight continues with even more ferocity than before as both of their Lords begin the battle for their lives had only just begun.

******

I took a bit of a different approach with this 'fight' with how much of a coward Hatengu truly was and him being pitted against Pitou, a woman who only gets serious for people she seems as dangerous so I have this chapter a more comedic take as Hatengu took his sweet time to actually get serious himself instead of just staying cowardly the entire time.

Thus it resulting in them not starting their fight until much later compared to the others as a result, and surprise it wasn't hard for the Chimera Ants to learn both Haki and Hamon which will be great assets in fighting the Upper Moons and taking them down permanently if need be.

I'm also surprised at myself that I was able to get a chapter out this fast, mind you this won't happen often so be happy I did.

And by that I mean give me your stones now, like I said a few chapters back I want this fic to get into the top 50 this week at least which would be nice if that happened.

Next chapter
