On an ordinary (and not very unusual) morning in 1997. Denji, a 16-year-old boy, is leaving the old apartment his parents left behind to go to work.

Following in his footsteps was a small dog with a saw protruding from its head and its name was pochita, walking a short distance pochita suddenly barked loudly warning of danger.

Denji: The devil needs to be defeated, pochita quickly hide in a corner so I can deal with it.

After saying that, Denji went straight to the demon with a nonchalant face and bare hands

___________________

Denji has defeated the demon and is standing on its corpse

Denji: this one is a tomato demon, it will come back to life from the root so let's burn it

Owner: good job, its corpse in the market will sell for a good price, the remuneration is 40,000.

Denji: great!

Landlord: minus the brokerage fee and other things, it's 17,000 VND

Denji (screams): hey, you pay so low, motherfucker, it's getting lower and lower now!

Owner: sorry, this year has been difficult with all that.

Denji takes the money and leaves with pochita.

Denji: I also have to pay for electricity and water, at this rate, it'll just make my mouth shut. Pochita, you go back first so I can buy food.

pochita: woof!

On the other side, the owner and his driver were watching the denji.

Driver: why hire that bald brat as a demon hunter?

Owner: This kid is pretty strong, but he's pretty stupid so I can pay for it

Driver: he raised a demon, can he take on the job of a demon hunter?

Landlord: he's a quick guy...; we yakuza only move bodies

Owner: Besides, this guy's weakness is quite hostile.

Denji: Hey, why are you guys following me?

Driver: we are not following you

Denji: is that so?

Denji: "Never mind, let's go buy some food"

Denji page on the way home

Denji: "it's also been 3 years since I started practicing, I practiced so hard that I lost all my hair, to the point that I thought I was dead and my mind was going crazy and finally I have mastered the power within me. I have become the demon hunter I wanted to be."

Denji: "but since I became a demon hunter, their numbers have not shown any sign of decreasing but nothing to be sad about".

Denji: "but recently there's something bothering me".

There was a cat on the side of the road, he crouched down to pet it, but the cat ran away.

Denji: "Every day that passes, my feelings fade away".

Denji: "fear, stress, anger...I can't feel anything anymore".

Denji: "Is it possible that in exchange for strength, I have lost a very important part of a human?".

Denji: "before, I still had strong emotions when fighting against the enemy: fear, panic, anger"

On the way, when denji saw a demon man harming people, he destroyed it with a single punch.

Denji: "but now all it takes is one punch"

Denji: I'm going home pochita, let's eat egg rice tonight

Pochita:woof

Denji: "every day I go home without a wound, wash my clothes, take a shower".

Denji: "I no longer care too much when going out to fight demons"

Denji: "Demon hunting for me is just a hobby"

Denji: "in short, as long as you feel proud, everything is fine"

Denji: let's sleep pochita.

Denji hugs pochita and goes to sleep.

*knock Knock knock*

A knock on the door woke them both up.

Denji: Who's knocking on the door at this hour?

Employer: the devil has appeared, let's go to work

_________________________________________

Denji: Are there really demons here? Can't see them anywhere or are they hiding? (with pochita in hand)

Denji: Hey old man! I'm asking the old man.

Owner: demons..., we have to thank them

Denji: what?

Landlord: you're too hostile to Denji

Denji: Huh?

Landlord: and I hate opponents!

When denji didn't understand what was going on, he was slashed in the back by a slash.

Employer: we are yakuza, we made a contract with zombie demons and in return...

Demon zombie: ...DEATH OF THE HUMAN HUNTER!!!!!!

Demon zombie: you are so stupid! so stupid!

Demon zombie: get the demon's power! and you will become my slaves!

Demon zombie: everyone tear him up and throw him in the trash

The zombie army rushes like a zombie island

Denji is still holding his pochita and standing like heaven, not because he's scared but because he's regretting his shirt, he's not injured but the shirt is torn.

Denji: Did you know that this shirt is ONLY OFF!?!?!?!?!

Denji swings his fist, with just one punch he makes a bunch of zombies turn into a mess

Demon zombie: what the hell! who are you?!?!?!

Denji: a guy who works as a demon hunter for fun

Denji put the pochita aside and rushed towards the demon with an extremely fast speed and unleashed a punch that killed the demon before it had time to react.

After finishing the boss, he saw the zombies approaching him.

Denji: punches repeatedly with one hand.

In short, all the zombies are dead.

Denji: oh my god! From the torn shirt to the pants stained with blood, now there is only water left. Wow, that costs money!

After saying that, denji turned to where the corpses were lying, an evil thought appeared in his mind.

Denji: It's not illegal to take money from bad guys, right?

Morning came and a car was parked in front of an abandoned factory. 3 people got out of a colored sedan. A woman and two men in business suits go inside the abandoned building.

When they entered, they saw only a pile of corpses lying on their faces. The woman was frustrated and annoyed about the thing. But what caught her attention were the shoe and dog paw prints on the ground and a large hole in the wall.

She then smiles at the upcoming events that will bring her closer to the Chainsaw Man.
