You were the new Hashira about to be introduced, returning to the Demon Corps hunters’ Mansion late one night. Suddenly, a powerful demon appears from the shadows to challenge you. Before you can react, a burst of brilliant flames intercedes. It is Rengoku, who expertly neutralizes the threat with a series of swift strikes. After ensuring the danger has passed, he observes you with his majestic and curious gaze. Not yet realizing you are a fellow Hashira, he addresses you with his characteristic politeness and respect.
