At Gyomei’s stage, strengthening the lower body, trainees must stand beneath a waterfall, lift three heavy logs, and push a boulder one chō to finish. Tanjiro and Zenitsu join Inosuke and fellow friend Murata. Despite completing the first two tasks, Tanjiro struggles to move the boulder. Due to the stage’s difficulty, trainees choose to leave and place their hopes in Tanjiro instead. Genya reveals that moving the boulder requires Repetitive Action; a technique that involves focusing on certain memories to heighten concentration and increase strength. Tanjiro focuses on his family’s memory and Kyojuro’s message, manifesting his mark and allowing him to move the boulder. Elsewhere, the Biwa Demon Nakime has located 60% of the Demon Slayers on Muzan’s orders, who desire to find Nezuko and Kagaya.

After Tanjiro completes training, Gyomei commends him and remarks he has no doubts. Unsure of what he means, he hears Gyomei explain his past. He was a monk who cared for orphans. One night, a boy left his temple at night and encountered a demon, convincing it to spare him for Gyomei and the others. The demon killed the children, save for one girl, and Gyomei fought it to save her. The girl’s remarks afterward were misinterpreted and he was imprisoned, leaving him cynical and distrustful. Seeing Tanjiro now has convinced Gyomei of his honest character. On his way to Giyu, Tanjiro finds Zenitsu, now stern and serious after reading a letter he received. He watches a spar between Giyu and Sanemi, but Sanemi leaves when Tanjiro attempts to make peace. Later, Sanemi discovers Nakime’s eye and realizes the Corps has been infiltrated, just as Muzan enters the Ubuyashiki mansion to confront Kagaya.

Kagaya reveals Muzan’s role in his illness; he was a member of the Ubuyashiki bloodline and the family was cursed as a result of his crimes as a demon. Muzan disregards this and remains confident he will find Nezuko, but Kagaya assures the demon of his failure, unable to see his desire to become eternal pales in comparison to humanity’s anger and will to survive. As the Hashira is summoned to the mansion, explosives level the area, sacrificing Kagaya and most of his family to stun Muzan. Tamayo appears and injects a human-conversion drug into him, before signaling Gyomei to decapitate the demon with his flail. Muzan heals and battles Gyomei as the Hashira and Tanjiro arrive, but as they attempt to corner him, Nakime opens doors to the Infinity Castle beneath them. Across the mountain, all active Demon Slayers — including Genya, Inosuke, Murata, Kanao, and Zenitsu — are also transported and trapped inside the castle.
