The battle between the Hero of Hell and Public Safety will continue in Chainsaw Man chapter 173, set to be released on August 6, 2024. Despite the hype surrounding the new special division squad in chapter 171, they were swiftly defeated by Chainsaw Man. He went on to vanquish another squad and consume the Ear Devil.
Chapter 172 concluded with the Hero of Hell devouring the Ear Devil and erasing the very existence of ears from the world of Chainsaw Man. While some fans speculate that this could be a permanent alteration, others theorize that it could potentially lead to a showdown between Yoru and Chainsaw Man, where Yoru may force him to regurgitate all the concepts he has consumed.

Chainsaw Man: Chapter 172 Recap
In chapter 172 of Chainsaw Man, the frenzy persists as Denji, now transformed into his Hero of Hell state, begins a rampage following the destruction of Barem Bridge. The recently formed Special Division, specifically designed by Public Safety for this exact situation, is faced with a more difficult obstacle than expected.
After easily defeating the Special Division, the Hero of Hell faces an explosion from Special Division 6, which unleashes the Centipede Devil to attack Denji. However, he quickly slices it into pieces.
Despite the Public Safety department’s efforts to eliminate the Hero of Hell, he easily defeated both squads from the special division and consumed the Ear Devil. The chapter concludes with Yoru and Katana Man attempting to discuss Denji’s disappearance, only to discover that their ears had mysteriously vanished.
What to expect from Chainsaw Man Chapter 173 (speculative)
In chapter 173 of Chainsaw Man, Yoru may confront Chainsaw Man directly in an attempt to make him expel all the concepts he has consumed and erased. It is also plausible that the Hero of Hell will face off against multiple other devils, as it has been revealed that the Devil Hunter has a hidden agenda for targeting Chainsaw Man, even at the risk of losing his own ears. The Chainsaw Man manga will be taking a one-week break, with chapter 173 set to be published on August 6, 2024.
