Chapter 12:Rehabilitation training

After meeting Hashira and Kagaya he tells him that he will rest and then begin rehab training with Shinobu

Hiromo agreed but first he has to rest

Hiromo was sleeping and then he slowly opened his eyes as his room started to appear and he saw that he was lying on the bed and he tried to move his right arm but he felt pain

One person who was in the dark introduced himself as kakushi and when Hiromo asked him what his real name was he said that he was not allowed to say

Hiromo remembered that he broke his arm when he fell off the train during the fight with Enmu and that it hurt him

After a few minutes someone opened the door to the room and it was Shinobu who asked how he was feeling while Hiromo himself said that he was fine but that his arm hurt

Shinobu says that she gave him an injection and that his arm will heal in a few days, but that he can walk now because there is no problem with his legs.

Hiromo thanked her and asked her where Zenitsu and Inosuke were and she said they were in the next room and they also broke their arm but had cuts but everything went well

Hiromo got up and left his room and went to the room where Inosuke and Zenitsu were lying and asked them if they were okay but Zenitsu immediately went wild when he saw that Shinobu had bandaged his wound as well

Inosuke then says that when he gets up he will beat them both and Hiromo says that he will recover in three days

While they were talking a girl with black hair came into the room who introduced herself as Aoi and said that she was in charge of their clothes

Hiromo said that he was glad and introduced himself and Zenitsu said that she is very beautiful and that she will marry him while she angrily replies that there is no way and says to give them her clothes except for Inosuke because he definitely does not wear clothes

They all changed and were given pajamas which Hiromo says are very comfortable while Inosuke says he's never worn them and will take them off as soon as he gets better while Aoi says she doesn't care

Inosuke gets angry and then the two fight as Zenitsu and Hiromo say that Inosuke is really dangerous

And then three little girls run in and tell them to stop because maybe Shinobu will come and get angry

Hiromo laughed and asked the girls what their names were and they just laughed and said that he is very kind and that Inosuke is not at all like him but Inosuke hears that and says that it is not true and that he is also kind

While Aoi denies it and then the fight starts again but then when Shinobu comes in they immediately all stop and Shinobu says that she hopes they get along but that she heard a noise while Aoi says that it's not true

Shinobu tells them to forget about it and notes to Hiromo that they have breakfast to eat so they can heal

They had time to eat but while Hiromo and Zenitsu ate slowly Inosuke ate 5 plates in less than 10 minutes while

Hiromo and Zenitsu look on in disbelief and Inosuke tells them if they don't want to eat theirs then he will gladly eat for them

Zenitsu said with visible anger that he was just like a wild pig and when Inosuke heard that he attacked him saying that he was so afraid of demons that he would die for a while

Zenitsu said in amazement that it wasn't strange at all while Inosuke was frustrated and asked him angrily why he became a demon slayer in the first place

Zenitsu suddenly calms down as Hiromo looks on in amazement and wonders what has come over Zenitsu all of a sudden

Zenitsu says it's because of his grandfather who is also a former lightning Hashira aka Jiguro who scolded him all the time because he's afraid of demons but grandfather thought I was his rightful heir but now I'm stuck with you two and he almost forgot that had his senior named Kaigaku

Who was very different from him and who, unlike him, was fearless but constantly scolded him but he still respected him

When Hiromo heard that he said he was sorry for being asked that but he just smiled and said not to worry and that everything is fine

But then Inosuke says he can't believe he's such a loser and Zenitsu gets so angry that he asks him if he'd like to fight him

Inosuke says he agrees and tells him that he will mop the floor with him as Hiromo tries to calm them down but to no avail and the argument goes on for most of the night until Shinobu comes in and tells Hiromo to go out with her for a bit and sit down

They were sitting on the roof as Hiromo asked what he wanted to talk about and Shinobu said that she really admired him for still being happy and full of energy even after the death of his family

Hiromo then smiled and said that his parents and sister would also like to see it

Hiromo then asks what is so special about him being a fire breath user as Shinobu says that the last time such a fighter appeared was over a hundred years ago and no Hashira had seen him in those 100 years until then

Hiromo said in amazement that he is actually a special demon slayer and Shinobu says that it is the most powerful breathing technique right after the sun breathing,from which all breathing techniques were created

But only Hashiras and most likely Muzan know that there is a hidden breathing technique called fire breathing and that he is the second and most likely the last user of that breathing technique

Hiromo then says that he can't believe that he has so much history among demon slayers and that now he will have to train even more to become even stronger and Shinobu backs him up

Hiromo says he has to go now and is glad they talked as Shinobu says the feeling is mutual

While the night was still going on and everyone was sleeping, Hiromo was still wondering about what Shinobu was telling him, saying that he was the inheritor of that breathing technique.

Hiromo gets serious and vows to work harder and train harder to be strong enough to kill Muzan Kibutsuji

The night passed and the day dawned and it was beautiful as Hiromo stretched and noticed that his arm no longer hurt and asked how Inosuke and Zenitsu were doing but both of them kept silent and slowly said that it was because of their fight last night

But then Shinobu came and said that they will have to rest for another day and that they will only start training when they recover, but Zenitsu says that it doesn't matter and that Hiromo can continue without him

While Hiromo says he's glad to hear that and tells Shinobu he can start training

Hiromo was supposed to train but he wasn't well so he came the next day and it turned out they didn't break their arm and they recovered right away

Shinobu then excitedly said that now they can start training
