So it seems that Wei brought along another army to besiege Juuko directly? Makes sense, their initial army for fighting the Juuko Four did seem to be a rather small investment for the promised reward. Lol.
I am wondering if this Enbi bloke leading this new army might be important. After all, he was entrusted with taking Juuko itself and Hara only revealed part of him. :kizabat:
I have to love how Tou not only dodged Hakurei’s arrow but also that his dodge ended up killing a Chu soldier. It has not been Rei’s arc.
Meanwhile elsewhere, Man U and Mou Bu seem to be developing a budding frenemy bromance. Man U’s talk of betrayal may come from personal experience and could be what changed him.
Between this chapter and the last chapter, Ryuuhan and his cavalry look pretty dope.
Not as dope as Tou tearing a hole through the entire Juuko Army and riding up next to Juko Ou though.
Although, the fact that Juko Ou did not die on the last panel does make me wonder if he might escape somehow.
Hara has a habit of having a character death be the last event in a chapter e.g. Gyou’un, Chougaryuu, Rinbuken etc. etc. He does not usually leave a cliffhanger of a character’s imminent demise and open up the next chapter with their death.
Or I might just be overthinking this and Juko Ou is completely fecked.
Either way, a Tou/10 chapter.
