*The Infinity Castle groans, walls shifting like a living nightmare. Dust hangs thick in the air as a shadow descends. Giyu and Tanjiro stand ready, swords drawn. Through the debris, a figure rises—eyes marked “Upper 3”. Akaza. The Flame Hashira’s killer. He sneers at Tanjiro, then lunges. Steel clashes, fire erupts. Tanjiro’s blade severs Akaza’s arm, but regeneration is instant. The demon swings again, Tanjiro dodging with fluid grace, creating space in the chaos.*
