Dumping such critical information, having an entire flashback and reconciliation between 2 rivals that raises a giant death flag, and then drop the death right at the end of the chapter. Meanwhile Ippo hasnt even gone to 1st base with Kumi in the 30 years its been in publication. And Kazucuck is floundering about talking about how sexy Chorizo's toothpaste, bathwater, and panty line were for the past year. The duality of manga pacing

Maybe he body double'd his way out but then his talk about human nature doesnt seem he would use one. Even so, maybe he found wisdom in that and saves his ass anyway. Historically he dead from what spoiler posted before right? Oh well.

introduced him, built him up, recruited him and talked about how much Qin would benefit from him and then killed him off within a couple chapters...

what was even the point?

I wondered how that would be handled. Happened sooner than I expected

Can't the messengers deliver their message with calm and collectiveness for once???!! I swear every single one of them just barge in the door in a hurried panic!

I'd guess they didn't want for a non-battle arc to drag for too long? If not that, Kan Pishi has served his purpose for the story, and it was great and impactful. If he stayed longer it wouldn't have had that same impact. I personally wanted this kind of story-telling instead of the usual large-scale battles though.

I mean... I kind of expected Kan Pishi to die. I figured the circumstances would be far different from history so I'm not bummed he's dying. I'm more interested what this would mean. I like this Spy Arc.

Unless is to deceive that quadruple agent, that would be the only way that the character can set a trap for him to pass false info... the situation is... damn... quite serious here if he was really killed.

even though i greatly mourn the loss of my boy who ive only known for like 5 chapters, i do see a lot of importance in this little arc. It gave Shin a way to internalize his feelings about the whole kanki deal. Han getting discovered to be spying on Qin is a good segue-way into them gunning for han next. Youka's ties with Riboku is kind of a huge deal too, and it really explains why Riboku had so much trouble dealing with Kanki since Kanki was very reserved with his plans even among his right hand men

Thank you for the translation.

Hot damn stuff is happening quickly, I am liking this arc so far and looking forward to the next chapters.
