Chapter 70

Kidnapper (い) is the seventieth chapter of Koyoharu Gotōge's Kimetsu no Yaiba.

Summary
Four months after the passing of Kyojuro Rengoku, the three boys have been training relentlessly at the Butterfly Estate while occasionally leaving on individual missions. As Zenitsu goes on solo missions, he becomes less of a whiner whereas Inosuke becomes more reckless. Despite the unforgiving training sessions, Tanjiro remarks that they're tolerable since the three boys can endure it together.

Following the completion of one of his solo missions, Tanjiro approaches the Butterfly Estate to hear the screams of the young girls. Inside the property, Aoi and Naho scream to be let go after the Sound Hashira, Tengen Uzui begins to take them away while the other girls plea for their freedom. Aoi calls out for Kanao's help to save them, although she initially hesitates on what to do, Kanao chases after Tengen and grabs hold of Aoi and Naho.

Tengen looks at Kanao and tells her to obey her orders, but when she doesn't respond to him, he gets agitated and tells her to say something while calling her a "stuck-up pig." The other girls get scared by his sudden yelling but they manage to muster up their courage to swarm, and stop him from kidnapping Aoi and Naho.

By this point, Tanjiro arrives inside the property and although he initially gets confused as to whether the girls are crowding him or attacking him, he decides to headbutt Tengen in order to free the girls. However, Tengen stealthily escapes the headbutt, revealing that he previously used to be ninja and would not let anyone land an attack that easily.

Tanjiro angrily demands that Tengen returns the girls while Kiyo and Sumi insult him with names, he gets riled up at their disrespect and demands that they obey him as their "superior officer"
