Part of my issue with narratives like this is, while absolutely true events have happened in his life which warrant this descent into despair and such, the series of events which led up to this were... unbelievable.
And we, the audience, are largely fine with this, because, suspension of disbelief. This is a manga about marital arts, combat, and comedy. We want to see that, so we accept the bizarre contexts which need to be manufactured to create these moments.
My issue though, is now it feels like we're being asked to take all of those things, retroactively, very seriously. And that feels cheap. It feels unearned.
Every chapter just feels more and more dour, and I don't think the author knows how to pull us out of this tailspin.
Honestly after this chapter, I don't want to know what comes next. I just want to drop the series.
Who of these characters am I supposed to be rooting for? What direction could the story go at this point that would rekindle what I originally enjoyed?

To be fair, our boy has not yet had the chance to practice his marital arts, really.

I like that the author realizes that the government put him in this position and that offering him a job would be beyond fucked up
"hey, we might be the one who created the disease but we are willing to sell you the cure!" type of shit.
