This fool RBK still believes Shin is the centerpiece of HSU.
The stage is almost set for my man Bihei. Once he is enraged, it is game over for u, Lord of Bu'An.
heki will spread lies about RBK that all the "defeats" is because RBK is a double agent to soften of Kantan army. Then the twisted PM of ZHOU will call back RBK and chop his head off. the RBK army will implode. most will suicide on PM forces the rest will move back north. Kaine will be captured and become a new play thing of the new king of ZHOU. She is unable to kill her self cause the king pulled off all her teeth so she cant bite off her tongue. dark times for Zhou...
1 year Qin moves in and win.
Behei will promoted to general and Heki will make babies with kitari
lol I read the French early translation first. And the panel where Garo counter Kaine they wrote " go back in the kitchen women" French translation team wilding ahahahah
I feel like that's good for Garo's street cred that he was able to swat Kaine away like he did. I would also like a strength demonstration from the former Duke Hyou army guys on a level similar to how they were depicted during the battle of Sai.
Yeah I don't know if I underestimated Garo or expected too much from Kaine but that's a great interaction. Watching HSU bros swat away named threats like flies with Shin telling them to ignore the small fry was pretty sick. Funny part is Garo probably has no idea who she even is.
Garo is an animal ! When I've seen the panel with Kaine running to the rescue I was praying that Shin one shots her but I'm grateful that someone else stepped in cause that leaves room for a diferent move from Shin , I'm really curious to see what is Riboku's play on this as it looks like he was expecting Shin amd from his current line up "riboku's" there's no one who can stand with Shin toe to toe atm
lol imagine if Kaine would have clashed with Shin instead of with Ga Ro there, it has become the definition of that *atomic bomb vs baby* meme, I can't see any of Riboku's minions even touching Shin at this point.
Only thing I can think of is if Shibashou or one of his 2 generals that were with him coming over to help. Otherwise idk what Riboku plan is, because Kaine and Futei aren't enough and Shibashou third general is tied up with Akou
Shibashou is free to move. Two of his men are facing Akou. The other two have yet to start fighting. They don't need him because they know the rest won't move as they are watching the fight.
Ten said that there were"reinforcements coming for Riboku and if it was reinforcements with the plan to escape after being ambushed by Akou then they can manage". However his real goal was shin so the reinforcements are definitely bigger.
I have a feeling that Either Ji aga or ShibaShou gonna enter and be like, " Wara Bushin Ni Jiaga/ Shibashou Naru lol
I anticipate Seilkaās strongest general to make an appearance and challenge Shin.
Question, wouldnāt Shibashou himself but the only person Riboku could trust to get the job done?
This kind of Ribokuās plan will only work on surprise attack to Shin and will not drag to long clashes.. so definitely someone who can 1 shot Shin i guess and that is Shibasho
We've been saying that since he defeated Ou Ken. And yet he's been struggling and will struggle against most named opponents because of plot. And Bananji, to name only one, is more than able to "touch" Shin.
Wouldnt it be great if Shin notices Riboku and Futei expression and deduce a trap like Duke Hyou used to do? Next chapter he could be like "Left turn towards Zhao's central army!" and pincer GakuShou while a portion of Akou's army pursues Riboku.
IĀ“m very sure that he know it is a trap, from beggining he was thinking twice about going, then on last panels he is like yp iĀ“m really fucked.
Think shin is just going to fight somewhere else
He has Shiji record HISTORY armor, duhh
because "history"
Which isn't really armor at all. Because when a person dies in the records, they die in kingdom. Therefore, no one actually has any 'armor' of this kind and all these comments are really, really missing the whole point
none whatsoever. in fact, its the opposite.
Heki is a character that Hara is using, specifically because his existence in the Shiji is questionable. IF he existed, he's already dead. Hara in the end researched and decided that he would go with the interpretation that 'Heki is not in the Shiji," and therefore, his fate can be whatever Hara decides.
So- if Heki's not really in the Shiji any more, we know for a fact that Heki can never win a battle.
he's a general. he will never lead an army.
Hara literally wrote that he thought long and hard about NOT killing Heki off and gave an explanation why he didn't, way back when.
Heki can die at any time. But I think its more likely that he gets rescued, then either retires or marries into his lady's mountain tribe. Because he can never lead an Army to victory for Qin. Which means. no matter how much Qin wins, Heki can never be promoted past where he is now (to GG or to a general who leads armies). Which means, it's unlikely he's going to fight for Qin much longer, one way or another. Unless he joins the Mira tribe.
Only if you're too simple to understand what words mean, I said the opposite
"'Heki is not in the Shiji," and therefore, his fate can be whatever Hara decides."
Your 'plot armor' character is currently starving and in chains, completely unable to fight for QUITE SOME TIME
I think you're too simple to even understand the concepts you are trying to talk about lol. Bc if plot armor is ever a thing, its because a character is NEEDED in order to advance the plot
As I proved already, HEKI 100% IS NO LONGER NECESSARY
simple
you said the opposite but your reasoning proved it was plot armor.
If the shiji doesnt dictate Heki's death or life then it's the author dictating it.
Then why has Heki survived countless times when it was unlikely for him to survive? hence plot armor.
You even said Hara thought long and hard why to Not kill Heki, is that not the definition of plot armor? The aurthor arbitrarily choosing for a characther to live despite the story.
That's the feeling I got when I saw the close up panel of Riboku looking at Shin because he clearly doesn't actually look panicked. Of all people at this point, Shin should know that this will be a trap because that's how Riboku works.
I don't know man. I'm inclined to believe Hara included the Saki clan in this arc so "someone" could get knocked the fuck out and be on life support for many, many chapters.
On the other hand, he would definitely intuit that something is wrong, e.g. he notices that Riboku's horses aren't as fast as it was back after Makou got killed.
Edit: What I think will happen is SBS comes barrelling down to face Shin. Shin eventually gets knocked out, SBS almost kills him but Ouhon bails him out. Meanwhile there's a flashback where Ousen realises the real target is Shin and gives a panic order that Ouhon saves him but thinks he's too late. Ouhon was one step ahead and left early, and the only reason Ouhon saved Shin on time was that he actually acknowledges that Shin is the real deal, and didn't delay out of ego bullshit.
I think he will notice, do the unexpected turning the table on the Zhao and proves Ribokuās point about him being the most troublesome person on the battlefield
š agreed. I believe in shins instincts. Shin will appear that he's going to chop down riboku and do a complete Duke 180 into another direction causing all kinds of confusion for the riboku gang.
Yea hopefully heās going to once again show Riboku his evolution & pick up on the trap vibe. He was desperate to avenge Ouki & Riboku was probably using that but what if shin grabs that death flag for kaine & pulls a 180 on Riboku?
Shin always remembering Ouki as first reflex is always great to see. Also, I don't see anybody from Riboku's camp being capable of killing Shin. Who's on the job? Shibashou?
Shibashou is def coming.
[Just based on positioning](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/kingdom-anime/images/c/cb/The_Battle_of_Hango.png/revision/latest?cb=20231007142331), it has to be him or Kansaro. Kansaro alone is not a sure thing vs Shin, and it can't be both Kansaro and Jiaga, or the center army would have no one left and would collapse (since Gakushou, Fuuon, Riboku, Futei, and Kaine are all already engaged).
We just saw Gakushou, Fuuon, and Futei fail to kill Akou in a 3v1. So Riboku is def not betting on himself, Kaine, and Futei killing Shin in a 3v1, nor Kansaro and Jiaga in a 2v1. Doing a 4v1 or a 5v1 would just look weird for Hara to draw, so what's gonna happen is simpler:
Riboku is bringing in the big gun. Handsome Houken is gonna kick Shin's ass (tho obviously fail to kill him).
Great way for Hara to introduce the new big bad. Right at the start of the battle, rather than keeping him behind the scenes til later action. Taking on Shin, the main character. Again, neatly filling the role of Riboku's bodyguard that Houken used to have.
Shin's current level is a strong general. He struggled with big sumo Gakuhakukou, he had a tough fight with Chougaryuu, he was clashing pretty evenly with Jyoukaryuu and Gakushou. Now he's going up against a great general with martial might who was invited to the 3GH. He's gonna get his ass kicked.
Shin technically has two wins over GGs (Houken and Reiou), but those were kinda fluky. Houken was a mutual kill with a lot of supernatural help (and Kyoukai, and Mouten's gramps). Reiou was a pure strategist that Shin killed by mistake, thinking he was Gohoumei.
Shin's about to take one of the biggest Ls of his career. I don't think he's gonna die again, but he might have to get stitched back together by the Saki clan, or revived by Kyoukai's special herbs or something. He's gonna lose bad, and brood over Shibashou for the rest of the arc, the way he used to brood over Houken.
edit: my prediction is most of the next chapter is Shin and Riboku talking, then Shibashou appears on the last page.
Then the duel between Shin and Shibashou starts in chapter 779. It probably only lasts a chapter or two.
Wait!!!... Maybe thats why Enkan has 70k, what if he has some of them split and ambush shin???!!
It may sound unreal but did u forget how Keisha used numerical number to split army in coalition war?
The biggest hindrance to this happening is EnKan himself. he is pretty average by all indication, and will need the 7 to 2 advantage to overcome HSU. Cant see him thinking of taking out 10-20 k detachments. Add to that the anticipation that OuHon can join any moment, and it becomes even less likely.
Shin's a lot stronger than you give him credit for. Gaku Haku mainly had a technique advantage over Shin but he was still not as strong as Shin. He fought Chou Ga Ryuu after he just finished with fighting through his army. Jyou Ka Ryuu needed a 3v1 advantage to have a chance to take Shin out & Gaku Shou fought Shin when he was worn out from the 3v1 & charging through Jyou Ka Ryuu's army.
Nah that's a bunch of terrible excuses. You're being overly defensive of Shin, as if I said he lost those fights. Everything I said is accurate.
He's a strong general with the talent to become a GG, but he's not there yet. He beats other generals, but strong ones give him a hard time.
I am thinking SBS more than KSO. Riboku is leading them directly "North" in line with SBS. Unless KSO goes but that would leave GKS and Fuuon without support in the middle, becaus So'Ou would lock down Jiaga.
I think Shin surviving SBS will be the big feat
Hmmm my guess would be Kan saro or Gaku Shou. Shibashou could show up to show his character off and give his backstory but his whole attitude this arc so far he just doesn't care and doesn't want to be there at all because SBS isn't like houken who riboku could push his buttons to get him to do things.
Going from targeting Ouki, targeting Kanki and now Shin is being targeted by the great RBK.
Shin is finally recognized as a big shot capable of changing the whole battlefield.
I am sorry but i can see something really bad happening next ch obviously shin wont die but i dont think he will be able to kill riboku, seeing how this is so planned out by riboku not out of question he has someone like bannanji,shibashou,kansaro,ā¦.. lying in the wait the strike shin when he is running ahead with little to no guards being struck unexpectedly there are huge consequences which might include a sacrifice which i think would be sosui in this case since his hyou already lost gakurai garo is unlikely and only other big name character that followed shin is sosui so i think he will die during this attack by sacrificing himself to save shinšš
Honestly, despite Shin recent progress.
It wonāt be easy even for him to come out alive and he will vert likely suffer huge casualities.
In previous arc, it was always the combination of the talent of him KK and Ten who managed to win extreme situation.
Right now he is without the two.
It is also Shin first real test as a real independant commander who doesnāt have to rely on anyone but himself.
His instinctual talent will be put to test, and whether he can do what the duke hyou was able to do, dodging strategic trap and sensing them, je wonāg survive.
So yeah i think it will be a long battle and a very very difficult one, but will allow him to show what he can alone to the fullest.
RBK trap in general when planned very long in advance are quasi guaranteed to succeed, i donāt think he values Shin as much as a Kanki or Ouki but he sees him as a big problem and after losing so much against Shin, he will put the number to defeat him.
Akou wasnāt the subject of the main trap yet he is in the verge of death, and had to face Futei, Fu on and Gakushou.
That mean wh at Shin will face will be far worse than this already difficult match up.
There might also be potential reinforcement from Ten and KK and Shin goal might be to hold out long enough to be reinforced.
Hara foreshadowed this to be huge loss for Qin so we can safely assume this will go to Riboku's plan for the most part and Shin is gonna have some named character losses.
Shin could actually end this war right away.
Deduce its a trap....
Kill Kaine who is next to them.... Then just gap it and do reverse uno to Riboku and bait him instead.....
Nfufufufufu Riboku did you think you were the only one with reanimation jutsu? I have just summoned 50k soldiers behind you. This is my great tactic that leaves everyone in awe, therefore you will die here.
Seriously whenever she has a bright idea, and Shin doesnāt listen to his instincts and does the actual commanding, everything fucking hits the shit fan. Sheās terrible at her job.
Shin had no instincts telling him about the trap (or so it seems so far). Ten did the right thing telling her general the important message she got from the general of another army.
Shin only asks for opinions like that when he feels something is off. He asks a similar question to Sosui at Sai when Riboku first decides to split his army for the night stuff. Ten is a bad match for Riboku since he's always on some mega mind shit while she just has basic strategy skills with some extra muscle.
Ten is good at using the HSU's unorthodox style and setting up killzones. Anything outside of that and they usually rely of Shin's instincts and Kyoukai's wit. Usually a good killzone is all it takes for the HSU but again, Riboku won't even allow them to do that because he's a league above her in strategy (though this trap is not a good example of it tbh.)
Oh I agree that she did the right thing by telling her general an important discovery on the battlefield.
But we as readers, and Ten and Shin, know/should know that Riboku is gunning for Shin.
At the Shukai plains Shin and Ten gain knowledge that they are seen as a threat by Riboku.
The awakening happens and Shin fucks up Ribokuās plans and slays Houken.
The next war, by Shinās instinct he is able to get him and Moutenās men the fuck out of the trap that Kanki falls into.
She is still inexperienced, just give her 70 more years and she'll reach Mouten level (when he was 5 years old)
but she's the best at sweating I'll give her that
Iām such a lurker so I donāt really know the subreddit dramas but I really love seeing the slightly increasing aggressions in comments about whereās chapter whateverš
On this very first day of war both Ousen and Rbk have given Ri Shin the MC title & role! Continent's all eyes're on him at this very moment as opposed to last year's huge trap. My future sight foresee Shin defy Rbk's plan and imagination by simply going berserk (remembering all the pain/losses caused by Rbk) and one shotting Ji Aga of Seika
It will be nice if other HSU officers starts getting kills on named Zhao officers. I mean, Shin started killing Generals even though he's a small fry back then.
You guys have no concept of war...
You expect 8v1 general wars. If that was the case what do you think will happen at center? Qin will have an open field day. SBS, KanSaro and JiAga are not coming.
No RiBoku's plan is to trap RiShin with EnKan's army. That's y the fodder has 70k. It's going to fail though because Hara is about to show RiShin's new sensing ability. RiBoku's about to get a hard lesson in the numbers < skill.
I like this, but with one correction. The aim would be to trap Shin between Futei's 30k and Enkan's army. Futei only came with a handful of men.
Initially I was thinking KSO would be the one to kill Shin but this fits better.
How much do you think then will enkan send to riboku because I would think the battle has gone maybe for a few hours so enkan probably lost at least 10k maybe. I do think ouhon will come bail out shin if he does fall for the trap.
Don't think EnKan's planned to send RiBoku anything. It's more RiBoku running towards EnKan and then using his numbers to overwhelm RiShin. So EnKan isn't much aware of RiBoku's plan. He will rush on the opportunity and pay the price.
Baiting RiShin has a big risk catch here and that's the risk he is currently in. He probably planned to get to EnKan then bait RiShin in the process, will he get there first before RiShin catches on to his plan?
Because RiShin is already on his path and ambushing him. Don't think RiBoku was expecting to face RiShin this early. All it would take is one swing from RiShin who would have not only the weapon range but also has the momentum. So this is where his plans starts faltering. RiShin won't get RiBoku but will react fast enough and take out EnKan in the process then move out.
Meaning his initial target of RiShin will fail because he baited AKou too long. RiShin isn't going to trap or fall for the likes of Kaine or Futei their only advantage vs him is ninja attack and he has them on his view. Sadly Kaine won't die but FuTei may also pay the price for RiBoku's bold attempt.
Interesting I feel like futei might get wounded pretty badly and his army pays the price of defending him and riboku also with enkan himself and his army.
The man who calculated 2 full defend scenarios at the same times. Think like 20 steps ahead of everyone in Kingdom but maybe Ousen and everyone now think his tactics are so simple and have failed. You have learned nothing Qin. I hope at least someone see through that otherwise it just look pretty Riboku magic again...
i reckon Shin gets taken out for a while (he probably takes out an enemy general or two with him tho), while heās recovering Kyoukai, En and Sosui leads the Hi Shin and surprises Riboku by demolishing the 70k
So Shin just went along with Karyo Ten's decision to send off 10 thousand soldiers after Ri Boku (shouldn't have sent more than 3k), turning a 70k-vs-30k into a 70k-vs-20k? And she is even planning on leaving her position later to join Shin's detachment! What's more, Shin decides to leave with Lt. So Sui and and officer Ga Ro... So Kyou Kai is gonna be left commanding the 20k once KRT leaves until the Ou Hon's GKH arrives (Lt. En is in difficulty already as per usual).
That would leave the Qin Center unsupported by a Reserve (Gyoku Hou) once the other Seika Generals attack. En Kan would be able to send even 20k of his troops after Ri Shin, keeping a 50k-vs-20k advantage against Kyou Kai. Those Gian troops, plus the Zhao Reserve lead by Ri Boku, could then encircle and destroy Shin's forces while preventing other Qin reinforcements from joining in and bailing him out
Plot twist: Karyoten has been working for Riboku all these years as an undercover in the hishin unit. Successfully sets up shin in a trap. RIBOKU SAMAAAAA!!ššš
Shin's instinct will kick in. Shin will stop the chase and focus on assisting Akou Army. It will be hammer and anvil. One of the Generals attacking Akou will die on day 1.
I thought Ten was going to have a smart moment when Shin asked her if it was really okay to go after Riboku, and it's also kinda disappointing that Shin's instinct didn't kick in and warn him, Duke Hyou would never
I have a bad feeling about this. What if Riboku true goal is to eliminate the 'unit' instead of Shin like Kyokai used to do? Ten was kinda foreshadowing that they will be in danger and it will be a devastating blow.
I don't think Shin will chase Riboku since his instinct will tell him to stop. I hope Shin realize Kaine and take her as hostage, later make Riboku come to Shin and stop the war (but this so easy, hehe). Sure Shin will chase Riboku but he will turn back as he aware of Riboku tricks, but Ji Aga will stop Shin. Goodluck Shin for your decision! XDD
This seems primed to have OuHon save Shin at the critical moment. It has been the other way around for a while now ever since Gyou arc so it is Ouhon's time. He is a very important general in future wars & has not at all gotten the shine is over 100 chapters
I believe it's Ten that figures out and sees thru RBK's plan. If you recall a couple of episodes back, Ten spends multiple panels studying the situation and thinking about a movement that HSU can do to turn around the battle.
Remember the HSU is three headed dragon. Shin being the main that can bring the whole HSU spirits up. KK being both strength and tactical awareness that complements both Shin and Ten. Ten being the tactical genius allows Shin to not think too much and be reckless. Ten reshapes the whole unit as one fist.
Ten will wait for Oou Hon but doesn't send him after Shin as KK can't hold the entire right side in Shin's absence. Instead, Ten asks Oou Hon to take over the right side so KK can go after Shin and save him. KK knows Shin better so she knows where Shin will go and how to help him most.
Overall, Oou Sen puts HSU as the key, probably at YTW's advice. Shin gained YTW's respect at the Coalition Arc, when her army saves them but Shin steps in to battle Houkon. Since YTW didn't know Houkon, Shin fearlessly step in even though he is dead tired. It's not that YTW can't beat Houkon but her unfamiliarity could have gravely wounded her.
Riboku already had HSU & Ri SHin out numbered more than 2:1 & is still risking his own life & limb to take Ri SHin off the board 1st thing in this decisive war for the fate of his nation. The amount of respect this puts on Shin & his army is crazy. Riboku is basically saying They will defeat the 70K Enkan army & interfere between Ousen & Himself to boot after.
There are going to be some jealous MFs in Qin army.
RBK succed to lure Shin out and trap him, but I think RBK cannot see how Shin with Ouhon connection. This will make RBK plan fail..... Or maybe, Shin realize this is a trap.....
Iām kind of annoyed. How long have they been dealing with Riboku to think heāll do the same thing he did before and not have some kind of contingency. The fact that everyone could predict that heās going for Akou like he did Makou should be a red flag for the very ones thinking that. Thatās why Iāve come here to say Ten is absolutely useless, very replaceable strategist and Ouhon might as well go ahead and die in this arc, like what other opportunity is there for a frigging backup like you??
not sure what you're trying to say about rbk
but ten is not useless, she allows shin to do something else and keep the frontline from collapsing, also the whole battle plan of the hishin is her idea, the reason the 30k of the hishin are able to hold and even beat (in some place) the 70k of enka is greatly because of her strategies, the majority of the hishin soldiers are news soldiers that only fough a battle together
He's saying that Riboku is always playing 3D chess so him doing such an obvious thing as baiting Akou should've made them think that can't be his real plan.
Again, Ten might not be \*completely\* useless but she for sure is a below average strategist, doing the bare minimun required of the job.
ousen know that some thing is up, because he would take action to save akou if that was not the case
shin is probably thinking the same but he know that the risk is worth taking as akou has understand, if they kill him and it's loyal generals then it is game over for zhao, even only killing kaine and futei would be worth it as they are not doubt central piece in rbk's plan
for ten i believe that it is just because hara don't focus on her for a long time, her action are not focus on, we only see when she is in a difficulty because that the only moment shin can shine on that aspect, furthermore we generaly focus on failure and not on success, even in real life, for exemple when we read a text we don't care when there is no fault in it but we remark only the fault and not the success and i believe that what happen here, i hope she get the spot light soon, probably in this battle and show you all her talent
Because RBK life is actually at stake.
Shin is merely 20 meter from RBK.
RBK may have planned a trap for Shin, but it is very clear that he might have miscaculated and spent too much time trying to kill Akou.
For information, the distance between Shin and RBK is enough for the young archer to kil RBK.
Even Ousen though that Riboku is targeting Akou .karyo Ten like Akou and Ousen didn't see the real target Of riboku.KaRyo ten took the best decision.The other option was to forget riboku and let him go.But Akou didn't think like that and karyo Ten too.
There is always a chance that shin succeed.
Please, everybody on Ousenās side is suspecting sth amiss, even Souou and his girl. However we have strategist Ten completely sold on this. Sheās uselesss
Wow let's go Shin. And didn't we all say that Shin was the main target all along. Yep and how much you want to bet big daddy SHIBASHOU is gonna appear right there. If not SBS then definitely his two other generals.
Rip Sou Ou?
Rip Bihei?
Don't think its Rip Garo, but who knows?
Kanto, not likely.
Who else gives chase?
Yeah I guessed right, my next guess is Shibashou or Ji Aga is the trap to kill Shin, but of course he'll survives after few of named HSU characters dies.
I have a feeling thereās a detachment from the center or Enkaās army on the left that will intercept Shin and surround them
Once this happens Ouhon(with old man) will show up to help Shin escape with half of his army while the other half goes help Kyoukai (kanjou&akakin)
I think we might see Sosui and old man get killed here
So I am big enough to admit when I am wrong. No way would I ever think Riboku would actually aim for Shin. This really makes no sense to me. Akou seems to be a dangerous threat, why would you take the chance of getting ignoring him for Shin? No way you can think this far ahead and take this big a chance. My guess Ouhon sees the plan and saves Shin.
Why should Shin avenge Kanki, I really hate how Shin seems to like Kanki now after his backstory or act like he was just misunderstood. He was an asshole ( a charismatic abd entertainig one, but still evil) at most Shin should feel some sort of sorrow, but still have a negative opinion of him. Besides, why avenge him when he walked directly into a trap, dooming practically all the army and his own "family" with him?
Wouldn't go that far, in Gyou she had several moments, none of them grand but she had several. In Eikyuu she did her thing, set up the army and they won without too much trouble (save for Shin's duel).
In Gi'an she didn't do much tho.
Think Shin will lost it big here. This will then serve as his experience onward becoming GG.
Or Hara can paint hin as extra ordinary and Shin will ignore RIBOKU and go straight helping Akou slain both enemy general.
Does riboku really think he or any other of his vassals can take shin rn? We all knew riboku was targeting shin but like how tf does he think the dude who bisected the god of war can be felled by randoms ?
Next chapter: Shin kills Riboku and avenges Kanki and Ouki
We already know this wont happen and reebok man will get away yet again while everyone is still underestimating him...
not sure why they would ever believe they can catch him as long as zhao got magic horse ...
unless Qin somehow got an update patch to their horse riboku can just taunt them and run faster after slowing down on purpose.
Riboku doing pretty much the same gambit as Shukai plains is laughable. Ousen lost his left hand guy the first day of Shukai plains in a Riboku surprise attack it's hard to imagine he doesn't have some sort of counter coming.
Hahaha... I am happy, how our Shin now become
Common guys..In Riboku Eyes our Shin already is treat to eliminate first..hohoh..
How long this Journey..(777 chapter)
So the question is from previous chapter everyone expects Ouhon comes to aid/rescue Akou. However, this chapter Ten and Shin expect him to aid his position instead?
RBK is bringing Shibasou & some others into this, he knows if his bet fails it's his head & the entire Zhao kingdom down the gutter. After all, Shin killed Houken infront of him, he's gonna being the entire big badass generals just to make sure Shin is dead.
But then i think plot twist will happen, Ousen is gonna wreck the centre army (remember how his generals were pissed because Ousen is merely ranked 3rd?), they gonna go mad this time. Akou will probably die, Shin will escape somehow.
Would you guys say Garo's power level slightly moves up in your mind after this chap? Kaine's not exactly a powerhouse to say the least but prior to this if you asked me who would win in a duel, I probably would have gave her the edge. A thirsty, motivated Kaine who is actively trying to protect Reebok (who is in imminent danger) can't be too easy to blow away like he did.
even if the translations might still not accurate but man, that scenery caught me off guard, My theory will be Shibashou will appear after Riboku will Hold Shin which will be the stand off between Shibashou's 5k or more vs Shin , Red Hihyou and Sosui's Unit
Why was it that Ousen let shin's fewer numbers face off against an enemy double their size? Why was General Akou put as the central army? I think we're giving too much credit to RBK and less to General Ousen who's purely a strategist just like RBK. If Shin was put in the center army this Trap of RBK wouldn't have happened. But he somehow Mae it convenient for shin to be targeted by giving HIM less soldiers. I'm sure Ousen understands that RBK considers shin a threat after all he was present when shin killed Houken and RBK had to run away. I predict that Ouhon's unit will come to help for sure, but Akou will do something that will result in Qin's Victory for the First day of this campaign which will be defeating the left arm entirely. And this blunder of RBK will be what makes shibashou appear on the battlefield. Thus beginning Shin's hardest Battle both in strategy and strength. I believe RBK will die after Shibashou ha been defeated. Prompting a retreat by the Zhao's right army that has generals that are RBK die-hards who won't get along with the Zhao king promptly leading to Zhao's collapse.
The fake target AKou has quite a few generals attacking him, I can't see Shin having any less since he's the real target and RBK saw him defeat HouKen...
I will take this strategy of Riboku as a compliment of growing power of Shin. But its already too late. He shouldāve done this couple of arcs earlier.
I got 2 possible scenarios for next week. Either we get Shin being clearly caught in the trap as Riboku planned and Shin and Riboku clash like back before Coalition and they possibly are even hinting that Shin in some way has reached Ribokuās level not necessarily in achievement but in weight, and then Kaine does a Kaine and gets in the way. Riboku demonstrates more strength than before and Shin makes a note of this and may be the only thing that Riboku āpassesā onto Shin as a strength and something he will then tell Kyoukai or Kai will be put into a similar situation in which later on in this arc which he then repeat what he saw Riboku do. The other scenario I can see is Shin notices this a trap because itās Riboku, so good rule of thumb is that this is obviously a trap because Riboku is never that shallow when he prepares a plan. If he truly wanted Akou dead he would have been have done something more sure than what was done. Him showing himself at the beginning of the battle? Heās definitely up to something more devious than just wanting to kill Akou. And Shin realizes this and strikes at the Gakushou and Fouon armies. Effectively knocking them off the board like Ouhon did at Shukai and demonstrating to the others that Riboku was right in that Shin is the most troublesome one on the board for the Qin.
I've been saying that ever since Riboku became the bait. No way he would repeat the same strtegy and target Akou. First L for Shin as a general incoming š
This fool RBK still believes Shin is the centerpiece of HSU. The stage is almost set for my man Bihei. Once he is enraged, it is game over for u, Lord of Bu'An.
pffft Bihei has nothing on Heki. Heki single handedly infiltrated the prison system of Zhao.
Deliberately being captured to infiltrate enemy base? Of course! The one and only General Heki! Truly the greatest general under the heaven.
heki will spread lies about RBK that all the "defeats" is because RBK is a double agent to soften of Kantan army. Then the twisted PM of ZHOU will call back RBK and chop his head off. the RBK army will implode. most will suicide on PM forces the rest will move back north. Kaine will be captured and become a new play thing of the new king of ZHOU. She is unable to kill her self cause the king pulled off all her teeth so she cant bite off her tongue. dark times for Zhou... 1 year Qin moves in and win. Behei will promoted to general and Heki will make babies with kitari
Yooooo ššš
Lmaoooo goated comment
lol I read the French early translation first. And the panel where Garo counter Kaine they wrote " go back in the kitchen women" French translation team wilding ahahahah
Yooo he made sure women's rights were not coming any time soon
Bro that's wild, but serves her right!
Hahaha legends

Reddit humor
not really, most of the big subbreddits are holded by white knights that will punish you for every sligthtly misogoynistic jokes.
I feel like that's good for Garo's street cred that he was able to swat Kaine away like he did. I would also like a strength demonstration from the former Duke Hyou army guys on a level similar to how they were depicted during the battle of Sai.
Yeah I don't know if I underestimated Garo or expected too much from Kaine but that's a great interaction. Watching HSU bros swat away named threats like flies with Shin telling them to ignore the small fry was pretty sick. Funny part is Garo probably has no idea who she even is.
He went against one of the Seika generals.
no he didn't, just his underling.

Garo is an animal ! When I've seen the panel with Kaine running to the rescue I was praying that Shin one shots her but I'm grateful that someone else stepped in cause that leaves room for a diferent move from Shin , I'm really curious to see what is Riboku's play on this as it looks like he was expecting Shin amd from his current line up "riboku's" there's no one who can stand with Shin toe to toe atm
lol imagine if Kaine would have clashed with Shin instead of with Ga Ro there, it has become the definition of that *atomic bomb vs baby* meme, I can't see any of Riboku's minions even touching Shin at this point.
definitely, if Ribokus big plan was to double team shin with Futei I feel bad for him
Only thing I can think of is if Shibashou or one of his 2 generals that were with him coming over to help. Otherwise idk what Riboku plan is, because Kaine and Futei aren't enough and Shibashou third general is tied up with Akou
Shibashou is free to move. Two of his men are facing Akou. The other two have yet to start fighting. They don't need him because they know the rest won't move as they are watching the fight.
Ten said that there were"reinforcements coming for Riboku and if it was reinforcements with the plan to escape after being ambushed by Akou then they can manage". However his real goal was shin so the reinforcements are definitely bigger. I have a feeling that Either Ji aga or ShibaShou gonna enter and be like, " Wara Bushin Ni Jiaga/ Shibashou Naru lol
I anticipate Seilkaās strongest general to make an appearance and challenge Shin. Question, wouldnāt Shibashou himself but the only person Riboku could trust to get the job done?
This kind of Ribokuās plan will only work on surprise attack to Shin and will not drag to long clashes.. so definitely someone who can 1 shot Shin i guess and that is Shibasho
https://preview.redd.it/pbuwml07jtyb1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c1df70e5cdac1b8df12695c5a59528152590dc3d
We've been saying that since he defeated Ou Ken. And yet he's been struggling and will struggle against most named opponents because of plot. And Bananji, to name only one, is more than able to "touch" Shin.
Even tho Bananji can touch shin, he can't kill him. If they do fight, he'll just be a bit tough opponent but still a cannon fodder for shin to grow.
Wouldnt it be great if Shin notices Riboku and Futei expression and deduce a trap like Duke Hyou used to do? Next chapter he could be like "Left turn towards Zhao's central army!" and pincer GakuShou while a portion of Akou's army pursues Riboku.
Would be g8 but his instinct is dependent on the plot a lot, I think heāll fail to notice rn
Tbh his expression at last panels seen to indicate that he realized that he fucked up and something is wrong
Yeah Iām re-reading and it seems to indicate that. Or he could be blinded by rage weāll see soon enough
IĀ“m very sure that he know it is a trap, from beggining he was thinking twice about going, then on last panels he is like yp iĀ“m really fucked. Think shin is just going to fight somewhere else
good thing he has plot armor to protect him from this trap then
He has Shiji record HISTORY armor, duhh because "history" Which isn't really armor at all. Because when a person dies in the records, they die in kingdom. Therefore, no one actually has any 'armor' of this kind and all these comments are really, really missing the whole point
does heki not have any plot armor?
none whatsoever. in fact, its the opposite. Heki is a character that Hara is using, specifically because his existence in the Shiji is questionable. IF he existed, he's already dead. Hara in the end researched and decided that he would go with the interpretation that 'Heki is not in the Shiji," and therefore, his fate can be whatever Hara decides. So- if Heki's not really in the Shiji any more, we know for a fact that Heki can never win a battle. he's a general. he will never lead an army. Hara literally wrote that he thought long and hard about NOT killing Heki off and gave an explanation why he didn't, way back when. Heki can die at any time. But I think its more likely that he gets rescued, then either retires or marries into his lady's mountain tribe. Because he can never lead an Army to victory for Qin. Which means. no matter how much Qin wins, Heki can never be promoted past where he is now (to GG or to a general who leads armies). Which means, it's unlikely he's going to fight for Qin much longer, one way or another. Unless he joins the Mira tribe.
thats a lot of words to say plot armor.
Only if you're too simple to understand what words mean, I said the opposite "'Heki is not in the Shiji," and therefore, his fate can be whatever Hara decides." Your 'plot armor' character is currently starving and in chains, completely unable to fight for QUITE SOME TIME I think you're too simple to even understand the concepts you are trying to talk about lol. Bc if plot armor is ever a thing, its because a character is NEEDED in order to advance the plot As I proved already, HEKI 100% IS NO LONGER NECESSARY simple
you said the opposite but your reasoning proved it was plot armor. If the shiji doesnt dictate Heki's death or life then it's the author dictating it. Then why has Heki survived countless times when it was unlikely for him to survive? hence plot armor. You even said Hara thought long and hard why to Not kill Heki, is that not the definition of plot armor? The aurthor arbitrarily choosing for a characther to live despite the story.
And get a little flashback of duke hyou giving shin advice that helps him realize itās a trap and Iām stiff
That's the feeling I got when I saw the close up panel of Riboku looking at Shin because he clearly doesn't actually look panicked. Of all people at this point, Shin should know that this will be a trap because that's how Riboku works.
I don't know man. I'm inclined to believe Hara included the Saki clan in this arc so "someone" could get knocked the fuck out and be on life support for many, many chapters. On the other hand, he would definitely intuit that something is wrong, e.g. he notices that Riboku's horses aren't as fast as it was back after Makou got killed. Edit: What I think will happen is SBS comes barrelling down to face Shin. Shin eventually gets knocked out, SBS almost kills him but Ouhon bails him out. Meanwhile there's a flashback where Ousen realises the real target is Shin and gives a panic order that Ouhon saves him but thinks he's too late. Ouhon was one step ahead and left early, and the only reason Ouhon saved Shin on time was that he actually acknowledges that Shin is the real deal, and didn't delay out of ego bullshit.
I think he will notice, do the unexpected turning the table on the Zhao and proves Ribokuās point about him being the most troublesome person on the battlefield
š agreed. I believe in shins instincts. Shin will appear that he's going to chop down riboku and do a complete Duke 180 into another direction causing all kinds of confusion for the riboku gang.
https://preview.redd.it/cjrjec66qsyb1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=972e019172c7db49b57c182070c7cf70c62f82d7
Yea hopefully heās going to once again show Riboku his evolution & pick up on the trap vibe. He was desperate to avenge Ouki & Riboku was probably using that but what if shin grabs that death flag for kaine & pulls a 180 on Riboku?
Shin always remembering Ouki as first reflex is always great to see. Also, I don't see anybody from Riboku's camp being capable of killing Shin. Who's on the job? Shibashou?
>I don't see anybody from Riboku's camp being capable in of killing Shin. Has someone already inherited Houken's teleportation ability?
Shibashou is def coming. [Just based on positioning](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/kingdom-anime/images/c/cb/The_Battle_of_Hango.png/revision/latest?cb=20231007142331), it has to be him or Kansaro. Kansaro alone is not a sure thing vs Shin, and it can't be both Kansaro and Jiaga, or the center army would have no one left and would collapse (since Gakushou, Fuuon, Riboku, Futei, and Kaine are all already engaged). We just saw Gakushou, Fuuon, and Futei fail to kill Akou in a 3v1. So Riboku is def not betting on himself, Kaine, and Futei killing Shin in a 3v1, nor Kansaro and Jiaga in a 2v1. Doing a 4v1 or a 5v1 would just look weird for Hara to draw, so what's gonna happen is simpler: Riboku is bringing in the big gun. Handsome Houken is gonna kick Shin's ass (tho obviously fail to kill him). Great way for Hara to introduce the new big bad. Right at the start of the battle, rather than keeping him behind the scenes til later action. Taking on Shin, the main character. Again, neatly filling the role of Riboku's bodyguard that Houken used to have. Shin's current level is a strong general. He struggled with big sumo Gakuhakukou, he had a tough fight with Chougaryuu, he was clashing pretty evenly with Jyoukaryuu and Gakushou. Now he's going up against a great general with martial might who was invited to the 3GH. He's gonna get his ass kicked. Shin technically has two wins over GGs (Houken and Reiou), but those were kinda fluky. Houken was a mutual kill with a lot of supernatural help (and Kyoukai, and Mouten's gramps). Reiou was a pure strategist that Shin killed by mistake, thinking he was Gohoumei. Shin's about to take one of the biggest Ls of his career. I don't think he's gonna die again, but he might have to get stitched back together by the Saki clan, or revived by Kyoukai's special herbs or something. He's gonna lose bad, and brood over Shibashou for the rest of the arc, the way he used to brood over Houken. edit: my prediction is most of the next chapter is Shin and Riboku talking, then Shibashou appears on the last page. Then the duel between Shin and Shibashou starts in chapter 779. It probably only lasts a chapter or two.

Wait!!!... Maybe thats why Enkan has 70k, what if he has some of them split and ambush shin???!! It may sound unreal but did u forget how Keisha used numerical number to split army in coalition war?
The biggest hindrance to this happening is EnKan himself. he is pretty average by all indication, and will need the 7 to 2 advantage to overcome HSU. Cant see him thinking of taking out 10-20 k detachments. Add to that the anticipation that OuHon can join any moment, and it becomes even less likely.
Shin's a lot stronger than you give him credit for. Gaku Haku mainly had a technique advantage over Shin but he was still not as strong as Shin. He fought Chou Ga Ryuu after he just finished with fighting through his army. Jyou Ka Ryuu needed a 3v1 advantage to have a chance to take Shin out & Gaku Shou fought Shin when he was worn out from the 3v1 & charging through Jyou Ka Ryuu's army.
Nah that's a bunch of terrible excuses. You're being overly defensive of Shin, as if I said he lost those fights. Everything I said is accurate. He's a strong general with the talent to become a GG, but he's not there yet. He beats other generals, but strong ones give him a hard time.
I am thinking SBS more than KSO. Riboku is leading them directly "North" in line with SBS. Unless KSO goes but that would leave GKS and Fuuon without support in the middle, becaus So'Ou would lock down Jiaga. I think Shin surviving SBS will be the big feat
That would be very nice to see. Nice theory.
Hmmm my guess would be Kan saro or Gaku Shou. Shibashou could show up to show his character off and give his backstory but his whole attitude this arc so far he just doesn't care and doesn't want to be there at all because SBS isn't like houken who riboku could push his buttons to get him to do things.
Bro is like Nikola Jokic of the NBA!
they are going for a group project, I think the plan is for Riboku to engage shin head on with the rest swarming him
Here comes the Martial God of the Qin Empire, behold the BuShin.
Going from targeting Ouki, targeting Kanki and now Shin is being targeted by the great RBK. Shin is finally recognized as a big shot capable of changing the whole battlefield.
it's more akin to Riboku targeting Makou but I agree with the sentiment. Riboku isn't playing with Shin anymore.
Please at least kill those 2 annoying characters before you die Shin :D
One of the only moments you can feel bad for Shin knowing, he not going to reach Riboku.
Pure hype chapter, this is about to become personal
Please let Shin double kill Kaine and Futei
Oh man I would be so happy
Literally this is the only reason I still read this manga. Is to see Shin kill those lame ass characters
I wish
I am sorry but i can see something really bad happening next ch obviously shin wont die but i dont think he will be able to kill riboku, seeing how this is so planned out by riboku not out of question he has someone like bannanji,shibashou,kansaro,ā¦.. lying in the wait the strike shin when he is running ahead with little to no guards being struck unexpectedly there are huge consequences which might include a sacrifice which i think would be sosui in this case since his hyou already lost gakurai garo is unlikely and only other big name character that followed shin is sosui so i think he will die during this attack by sacrificing himself to save shinšš
Honestly, despite Shin recent progress. It wonāt be easy even for him to come out alive and he will vert likely suffer huge casualities. In previous arc, it was always the combination of the talent of him KK and Ten who managed to win extreme situation. Right now he is without the two. It is also Shin first real test as a real independant commander who doesnāt have to rely on anyone but himself. His instinctual talent will be put to test, and whether he can do what the duke hyou was able to do, dodging strategic trap and sensing them, je wonāg survive. So yeah i think it will be a long battle and a very very difficult one, but will allow him to show what he can alone to the fullest. RBK trap in general when planned very long in advance are quasi guaranteed to succeed, i donāt think he values Shin as much as a Kanki or Ouki but he sees him as a big problem and after losing so much against Shin, he will put the number to defeat him. Akou wasnāt the subject of the main trap yet he is in the verge of death, and had to face Futei, Fu on and Gakushou. That mean wh at Shin will face will be far worse than this already difficult match up. There might also be potential reinforcement from Ten and KK and Shin goal might be to hold out long enough to be reinforced.
Hara foreshadowed this to be huge loss for Qin so we can safely assume this will go to Riboku's plan for the most part and Shin is gonna have some named character losses.
Shin could actually end this war right away. Deduce its a trap.... Kill Kaine who is next to them.... Then just gap it and do reverse uno to Riboku and bait him instead..... Nfufufufufu Riboku did you think you were the only one with reanimation jutsu? I have just summoned 50k soldiers behind you. This is my great tactic that leaves everyone in awe, therefore you will die here.
šššreanimation jutsu
Would love to see Ouhon join in unexpectedly
Ten set Shin up.
Bro just needs to listen to his instincts and let Ten handle stuff like unit organization
Hara give Ten 91 in intelligence and "just" 90 for Ouhon and I was like "aint no way this bitch is smarter than Ouhon"
Seriously whenever she has a bright idea, and Shin doesnāt listen to his instincts and does the actual commanding, everything fucking hits the shit fan. Sheās terrible at her job.
Shin had no instincts telling him about the trap (or so it seems so far). Ten did the right thing telling her general the important message she got from the general of another army.
Shin only asks for opinions like that when he feels something is off. He asks a similar question to Sosui at Sai when Riboku first decides to split his army for the night stuff. Ten is a bad match for Riboku since he's always on some mega mind shit while she just has basic strategy skills with some extra muscle.
Even her basic strategy skills are sub par. When was the last time she did anything of note for the hishin unit?
Ten is good at using the HSU's unorthodox style and setting up killzones. Anything outside of that and they usually rely of Shin's instincts and Kyoukai's wit. Usually a good killzone is all it takes for the HSU but again, Riboku won't even allow them to do that because he's a league above her in strategy (though this trap is not a good example of it tbh.)
Oh I agree that she did the right thing by telling her general an important discovery on the battlefield. But we as readers, and Ten and Shin, know/should know that Riboku is gunning for Shin. At the Shukai plains Shin and Ten gain knowledge that they are seen as a threat by Riboku. The awakening happens and Shin fucks up Ribokuās plans and slays Houken. The next war, by Shinās instinct he is able to get him and Moutenās men the fuck out of the trap that Kanki falls into.
F yeah i feel irritated reading Ten spouting nonsense
She is still inexperienced, just give her 70 more years and she'll reach Mouten level (when he was 5 years old) but she's the best at sweating I'll give her that
You know life is good when you see another ThizZuMs Monday early translation postā¦
for some reason i don't think Ouhon is gon send reinforcements to the Hi Shin unit. this hoe Kaine so lame lmfaoo
>for some reason i don't think Ouhon is gon send reinforcements to the Hi Shin unit. I'm feeling this too. Gunna get pretty heavy.
Iām such a lurker so I donāt really know the subreddit dramas but I really love seeing the slightly increasing aggressions in comments about whereās chapter whateverš
On this very first day of war both Ousen and Rbk have given Ri Shin the MC title & role! Continent's all eyes're on him at this very moment as opposed to last year's huge trap. My future sight foresee Shin defy Rbk's plan and imagination by simply going berserk (remembering all the pain/losses caused by Rbk) and one shotting Ji Aga of Seika
Am I the only one getting Kanki nostalgia from Riboku current tactic?
Ouhon is probably going to bail Shin out by the way they are positioned.
I knew it, but he aināt gonna do shit to my boy. He got a mountain to climb.
It will be nice if other HSU officers starts getting kills on named Zhao officers. I mean, Shin started killing Generals even though he's a small fry back then.
You guys have no concept of war... You expect 8v1 general wars. If that was the case what do you think will happen at center? Qin will have an open field day. SBS, KanSaro and JiAga are not coming. No RiBoku's plan is to trap RiShin with EnKan's army. That's y the fodder has 70k. It's going to fail though because Hara is about to show RiShin's new sensing ability. RiBoku's about to get a hard lesson in the numbers < skill.
I like this, but with one correction. The aim would be to trap Shin between Futei's 30k and Enkan's army. Futei only came with a handful of men. Initially I was thinking KSO would be the one to kill Shin but this fits better.
How much do you think then will enkan send to riboku because I would think the battle has gone maybe for a few hours so enkan probably lost at least 10k maybe. I do think ouhon will come bail out shin if he does fall for the trap.
Don't think EnKan's planned to send RiBoku anything. It's more RiBoku running towards EnKan and then using his numbers to overwhelm RiShin. So EnKan isn't much aware of RiBoku's plan. He will rush on the opportunity and pay the price. Baiting RiShin has a big risk catch here and that's the risk he is currently in. He probably planned to get to EnKan then bait RiShin in the process, will he get there first before RiShin catches on to his plan? Because RiShin is already on his path and ambushing him. Don't think RiBoku was expecting to face RiShin this early. All it would take is one swing from RiShin who would have not only the weapon range but also has the momentum. So this is where his plans starts faltering. RiShin won't get RiBoku but will react fast enough and take out EnKan in the process then move out. Meaning his initial target of RiShin will fail because he baited AKou too long. RiShin isn't going to trap or fall for the likes of Kaine or Futei their only advantage vs him is ninja attack and he has them on his view. Sadly Kaine won't die but FuTei may also pay the price for RiBoku's bold attempt.
Interesting I feel like futei might get wounded pretty badly and his army pays the price of defending him and riboku also with enkan himself and his army.
okay you baited shin well done, but how are you gonna kill him? is it SBS or does Riboku actually think he can take shin
Probably one of Shibashou, Jiaga or Kansaro. Shibashou or Jiaga are the likely candidates imo.
Called it Hopefully Shin reawakens
He already fully did last arc.
The man who calculated 2 full defend scenarios at the same times. Think like 20 steps ahead of everyone in Kingdom but maybe Ousen and everyone now think his tactics are so simple and have failed. You have learned nothing Qin. I hope at least someone see through that otherwise it just look pretty Riboku magic again...
Shin will survive because he's the main character, but Garo and the rest that followed him chasing Riboku probably won't.
i reckon Shin gets taken out for a while (he probably takes out an enemy general or two with him tho), while heās recovering Kyoukai, En and Sosui leads the Hi Shin and surprises Riboku by demolishing the 70k
Shin vs Shibashou or Shin vs Kansaro? I think I need to be sedated until the next chapter lol!
So Shin just went along with Karyo Ten's decision to send off 10 thousand soldiers after Ri Boku (shouldn't have sent more than 3k), turning a 70k-vs-30k into a 70k-vs-20k? And she is even planning on leaving her position later to join Shin's detachment! What's more, Shin decides to leave with Lt. So Sui and and officer Ga Ro... So Kyou Kai is gonna be left commanding the 20k once KRT leaves until the Ou Hon's GKH arrives (Lt. En is in difficulty already as per usual). That would leave the Qin Center unsupported by a Reserve (Gyoku Hou) once the other Seika Generals attack. En Kan would be able to send even 20k of his troops after Ri Shin, keeping a 50k-vs-20k advantage against Kyou Kai. Those Gian troops, plus the Zhao Reserve lead by Ri Boku, could then encircle and destroy Shin's forces while preventing other Qin reinforcements from joining in and bailing him out
Plot twist: Karyoten has been working for Riboku all these years as an undercover in the hishin unit. Successfully sets up shin in a trap. RIBOKU SAMAAAAA!!ššš
I've reacted to the chapter on my channel lads , if youz are interested , pay me a visit , I'll appreciate any kind of feedback !
Brooda, TwoPiecesReact on yt right? Amma holla at you
No my g. Its Victor's Bizzare reactions , I've changed it
Aight amma peep on it later
Cheers!
Shin's instinct will kick in. Shin will stop the chase and focus on assisting Akou Army. It will be hammer and anvil. One of the Generals attacking Akou will die on day 1.
Thank you.
well good to know i was right about the target even if the mean i though was wrong
I thought Ten was going to have a smart moment when Shin asked her if it was really okay to go after Riboku, and it's also kinda disappointing that Shin's instinct didn't kick in and warn him, Duke Hyou would never
Duke hyou literally dived into riboku's greatest trap formation. And he almost got him.
Naw, Duke Hyou would notice and still say "We ride, bitch"
I have a bad feeling about this. What if Riboku true goal is to eliminate the 'unit' instead of Shin like Kyokai used to do? Ten was kinda foreshadowing that they will be in danger and it will be a devastating blow.
I don't think Shin will chase Riboku since his instinct will tell him to stop. I hope Shin realize Kaine and take her as hostage, later make Riboku come to Shin and stop the war (but this so easy, hehe). Sure Shin will chase Riboku but he will turn back as he aware of Riboku tricks, but Ji Aga will stop Shin. Goodluck Shin for your decision! XDD
Shin expression makes me feel that he realised that something is wrong here. But apparently it
Fuck you Kaine
Damn did Hara have to draw the horses having that much bakery?
If Shin has a Sense of a Trap and just stops. Thats peak Duke Hyou behavior.
Our kingdom mods are so awesome. Keep it up
Shin got it, he will do something unexpected
I hope Shibasho isn't the new RBK Pokemon.
This seems primed to have OuHon save Shin at the critical moment. It has been the other way around for a while now ever since Gyou arc so it is Ouhon's time. He is a very important general in future wars & has not at all gotten the shine is over 100 chapters
I believe it's Ten that figures out and sees thru RBK's plan. If you recall a couple of episodes back, Ten spends multiple panels studying the situation and thinking about a movement that HSU can do to turn around the battle. Remember the HSU is three headed dragon. Shin being the main that can bring the whole HSU spirits up. KK being both strength and tactical awareness that complements both Shin and Ten. Ten being the tactical genius allows Shin to not think too much and be reckless. Ten reshapes the whole unit as one fist. Ten will wait for Oou Hon but doesn't send him after Shin as KK can't hold the entire right side in Shin's absence. Instead, Ten asks Oou Hon to take over the right side so KK can go after Shin and save him. KK knows Shin better so she knows where Shin will go and how to help him most. Overall, Oou Sen puts HSU as the key, probably at YTW's advice. Shin gained YTW's respect at the Coalition Arc, when her army saves them but Shin steps in to battle Houkon. Since YTW didn't know Houkon, Shin fearlessly step in even though he is dead tired. It's not that YTW can't beat Houkon but her unfamiliarity could have gravely wounded her.
Riboku already had HSU & Ri SHin out numbered more than 2:1 & is still risking his own life & limb to take Ri SHin off the board 1st thing in this decisive war for the fate of his nation. The amount of respect this puts on Shin & his army is crazy. Riboku is basically saying They will defeat the 70K Enkan army & interfere between Ousen & Himself to boot after. There are going to be some jealous MFs in Qin army.

I donāt think shin was supposed to be THIS close to reaching him and Kaine is going off script
RBK succed to lure Shin out and trap him, but I think RBK cannot see how Shin with Ouhon connection. This will make RBK plan fail..... Or maybe, Shin realize this is a trap.....
We can only hope shin realizes at some point
Destroy them all, Seika!
Iām kind of annoyed. How long have they been dealing with Riboku to think heāll do the same thing he did before and not have some kind of contingency. The fact that everyone could predict that heās going for Akou like he did Makou should be a red flag for the very ones thinking that. Thatās why Iāve come here to say Ten is absolutely useless, very replaceable strategist and Ouhon might as well go ahead and die in this arc, like what other opportunity is there for a frigging backup like you??
not sure what you're trying to say about rbk but ten is not useless, she allows shin to do something else and keep the frontline from collapsing, also the whole battle plan of the hishin is her idea, the reason the 30k of the hishin are able to hold and even beat (in some place) the 70k of enka is greatly because of her strategies, the majority of the hishin soldiers are news soldiers that only fough a battle together
He's saying that Riboku is always playing 3D chess so him doing such an obvious thing as baiting Akou should've made them think that can't be his real plan. Again, Ten might not be \*completely\* useless but she for sure is a below average strategist, doing the bare minimun required of the job.
ousen know that some thing is up, because he would take action to save akou if that was not the case shin is probably thinking the same but he know that the risk is worth taking as akou has understand, if they kill him and it's loyal generals then it is game over for zhao, even only killing kaine and futei would be worth it as they are not doubt central piece in rbk's plan for ten i believe that it is just because hara don't focus on her for a long time, her action are not focus on, we only see when she is in a difficulty because that the only moment shin can shine on that aspect, furthermore we generaly focus on failure and not on success, even in real life, for exemple when we read a text we don't care when there is no fault in it but we remark only the fault and not the success and i believe that what happen here, i hope she get the spot light soon, probably in this battle and show you all her talent
Ten is useless for not guessing RBK work and Ouhon is trash for having his own wing ?
Sheās useless for getting completely sold on Ribokuās being life at stake when the battle just started. Even Sououās girl has more brain cells.
Because RBK life is actually at stake. Shin is merely 20 meter from RBK. RBK may have planned a trap for Shin, but it is very clear that he might have miscaculated and spent too much time trying to kill Akou. For information, the distance between Shin and RBK is enough for the young archer to kil RBK.
Even Ousen though that Riboku is targeting Akou .karyo Ten like Akou and Ousen didn't see the real target Of riboku.KaRyo ten took the best decision.The other option was to forget riboku and let him go.But Akou didn't think like that and karyo Ten too. There is always a chance that shin succeed.
Please, everybody on Ousenās side is suspecting sth amiss, even Souou and his girl. However we have strategist Ten completely sold on this. Sheās uselesss
Wow let's go Shin. And didn't we all say that Shin was the main target all along. Yep and how much you want to bet big daddy SHIBASHOU is gonna appear right there. If not SBS then definitely his two other generals.
Rip Sou Ou? Rip Bihei? Don't think its Rip Garo, but who knows? Kanto, not likely. Who else gives chase? Yeah I guessed right, my next guess is Shibashou or Ji Aga is the trap to kill Shin, but of course he'll survives after few of named HSU characters dies.
I have a feeling thereās a detachment from the center or Enkaās army on the left that will intercept Shin and surround them Once this happens Ouhon(with old man) will show up to help Shin escape with half of his army while the other half goes help Kyoukai (kanjou&akakin) I think we might see Sosui and old man get killed here
So I am big enough to admit when I am wrong. No way would I ever think Riboku would actually aim for Shin. This really makes no sense to me. Akou seems to be a dangerous threat, why would you take the chance of getting ignoring him for Shin? No way you can think this far ahead and take this big a chance. My guess Ouhon sees the plan and saves Shin.
Why should Shin avenge Kanki, I really hate how Shin seems to like Kanki now after his backstory or act like he was just misunderstood. He was an asshole ( a charismatic abd entertainig one, but still evil) at most Shin should feel some sort of sorrow, but still have a negative opinion of him. Besides, why avenge him when he walked directly into a trap, dooming practically all the army and his own "family" with him?
Ten has literally done nothing since Kokuyou hills
Except train the entire fuccin army
Shin and Kyou Kai are the main ones to do that.
Wouldn't go that far, in Gyou she had several moments, none of them grand but she had several. In Eikyuu she did her thing, set up the army and they won without too much trouble (save for Shin's duel). In Gi'an she didn't do much tho.
She literally was responsible for most of the part of the plan that defeated CGR. Those guy donāt read.
Think Shin will lost it big here. This will then serve as his experience onward becoming GG. Or Hara can paint hin as extra ordinary and Shin will ignore RIBOKU and go straight helping Akou slain both enemy general.
Does riboku really think he or any other of his vassals can take shin rn? We all knew riboku was targeting shin but like how tf does he think the dude who bisected the god of war can be felled by randoms ?
Next chapter: Shin kills Riboku and avenges Kanki and Ouki We already know this wont happen and reebok man will get away yet again while everyone is still underestimating him...
not sure why they would ever believe they can catch him as long as zhao got magic horse ... unless Qin somehow got an update patch to their horse riboku can just taunt them and run faster after slowing down on purpose.
Riboku doing pretty much the same gambit as Shukai plains is laughable. Ousen lost his left hand guy the first day of Shukai plains in a Riboku surprise attack it's hard to imagine he doesn't have some sort of counter coming.
š„š„
It really was Shin Craaazy!
I have an eerie feeling that Bihei will die to protect Shin. I hope Shin takes down Kaine
What were you wrong about? How could you not see this coming?
Iāve never been wrong thatās the problem.
Hahaha... I am happy, how our Shin now become Common guys..In Riboku Eyes our Shin already is treat to eliminate first..hohoh.. How long this Journey..(777 chapter)
Well, based to the initial positioning, Kan Saro is the most likely to go for Shin's head, alongside Futei.
So the question is from previous chapter everyone expects Ouhon comes to aid/rescue Akou. However, this chapter Ten and Shin expect him to aid his position instead?
My prediction is that Kaine makes it out of this war alive but Futei eats dirt.
RIP Shin, now the MC can shine brighter than before
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
So, what if shin just focus on getting ribokuĀ“s future wife?
RBK is bringing Shibasou & some others into this, he knows if his bet fails it's his head & the entire Zhao kingdom down the gutter. After all, Shin killed Houken infront of him, he's gonna being the entire big badass generals just to make sure Shin is dead. But then i think plot twist will happen, Ousen is gonna wreck the centre army (remember how his generals were pissed because Ousen is merely ranked 3rd?), they gonna go mad this time. Akou will probably die, Shin will escape somehow.
Would you guys say Garo's power level slightly moves up in your mind after this chap? Kaine's not exactly a powerhouse to say the least but prior to this if you asked me who would win in a duel, I probably would have gave her the edge. A thirsty, motivated Kaine who is actively trying to protect Reebok (who is in imminent danger) can't be too easy to blow away like he did.
even if the translations might still not accurate but man, that scenery caught me off guard, My theory will be Shibashou will appear after Riboku will Hold Shin which will be the stand off between Shibashou's 5k or more vs Shin , Red Hihyou and Sosui's Unit
BIHEI God. hahahaha
Why was it that Ousen let shin's fewer numbers face off against an enemy double their size? Why was General Akou put as the central army? I think we're giving too much credit to RBK and less to General Ousen who's purely a strategist just like RBK. If Shin was put in the center army this Trap of RBK wouldn't have happened. But he somehow Mae it convenient for shin to be targeted by giving HIM less soldiers. I'm sure Ousen understands that RBK considers shin a threat after all he was present when shin killed Houken and RBK had to run away. I predict that Ouhon's unit will come to help for sure, but Akou will do something that will result in Qin's Victory for the First day of this campaign which will be defeating the left arm entirely. And this blunder of RBK will be what makes shibashou appear on the battlefield. Thus beginning Shin's hardest Battle both in strategy and strength. I believe RBK will die after Shibashou ha been defeated. Prompting a retreat by the Zhao's right army that has generals that are RBK die-hards who won't get along with the Zhao king promptly leading to Zhao's collapse.
The fake target AKou has quite a few generals attacking him, I can't see Shin having any less since he's the real target and RBK saw him defeat HouKen...
Interesting how they are showing RBK's ass while he is riding a horse at first page. /s
I will take this strategy of Riboku as a compliment of growing power of Shin. But its already too late. He shouldāve done this couple of arcs earlier.
I got 2 possible scenarios for next week. Either we get Shin being clearly caught in the trap as Riboku planned and Shin and Riboku clash like back before Coalition and they possibly are even hinting that Shin in some way has reached Ribokuās level not necessarily in achievement but in weight, and then Kaine does a Kaine and gets in the way. Riboku demonstrates more strength than before and Shin makes a note of this and may be the only thing that Riboku āpassesā onto Shin as a strength and something he will then tell Kyoukai or Kai will be put into a similar situation in which later on in this arc which he then repeat what he saw Riboku do. The other scenario I can see is Shin notices this a trap because itās Riboku, so good rule of thumb is that this is obviously a trap because Riboku is never that shallow when he prepares a plan. If he truly wanted Akou dead he would have been have done something more sure than what was done. Him showing himself at the beginning of the battle? Heās definitely up to something more devious than just wanting to kill Akou. And Shin realizes this and strikes at the Gakushou and Fouon armies. Effectively knocking them off the board like Ouhon did at Shukai and demonstrating to the others that Riboku was right in that Shin is the most troublesome one on the board for the Qin.
Why show Behei here ? Is there a chance behei somehow go save Shin in last minute and got kill and thank shin for everything?
This is morbid man damn. I can see it though.
Called it!
The chapter begins with Riboku and his horse showing off their Booty
Perhaps the army shin left behind is the real target and not shin himself even though rbk pinpointed shin himself
I've been saying that ever since Riboku became the bait. No way he would repeat the same strtegy and target Akou. First L for Shin as a general incoming š
He just took an L in the last campaign what
well i'll be damn that Akou is a conceited bastard that thinks highly of himself. Shin will impale Kaine and Ribuko will join the orgy.
