The spoilers for Kagurabachi chapter 55, titled “Joint Battle,”commence within a warehouse setting where the Masumi are urging Hakuri to take a break. One of the Masumi warns him that he’s still ten minutes from safely utilizing his sorcery without risking severe brain damage.

If he pushes himself, his ability to wield sorcery might be lost forever—or worse, he could face death. Meanwhile, Chihiro Rokuhira communicates with Uruha about an impending full-scale attack from Hishaku on the Senkutsuji Temple. Uruha shows concern, while the Masumi sense the urgency to start evacuating.

Alongside the evacuation efforts, the Masumi resolve to support Samura in his struggle against the Hishaku reinforcements. The spoilers depict the elite squad awakening their commander, who resembles a younger version of Samura.

The Masumi commander, reluctant to rise, initially expresses a desire for more sleep. Eventually, he rouses and lights up a cigarette, readying himself for action. Interestingly, the spoilers suggest that the commander appears childlike from an external perspective. The narrative then pivots back to Samura’s clash with the Hishaku sorcerer.

Amidst the confrontation, the blind swordsman discerns that his adversaries are employing the sounds of explosions and the smoke of gunpowder to befuddle his senses. The Hishaku sorcerer acknowledges Samura’s agility as he skillfully sidesteps these distractions and takes down several assassins.

Recognizing his opponent’s abilities, he hurls pine trees at Samura, betting that the blind swordsman will struggle to react to inanimate objects. Meanwhile, Uruha perceives the reverberations of the explosions, realizing they are Hishaku’s tactic against Samura’s echo-location strategy.

The ex-Kumeyuri user reflects that Samura must now rely solely on sensing the malevolent intent and hostility from his foes. He doubts how the Masumi could be of help, fearing the overpowering scent of gunpowder will further muddle Samura’s perception.

One of the monks at the temple advises Uruha that the Masumi elite squad possesses unique skills. As per the leaked spoilers, the Masumi excels in ninjutsu and stealth techniques, capable of masking their scent, silencing their movements, and concealing their killing intent.

When they engage in battle, they can effectively erase their presence from Samura’s awareness. It is also clarified that only the elite guards known as Makizumi can accompany Samura into battle. Suddenly, a sorcerer infused with Datenseki bursts into the warehouse.

Meanwhile, the Makizumi express concerns about whether they can eliminate every assassin, given their dwindling numbers. They realize they cannot sustain further losses. Just then, Uruha and Hakuri make their entrance onto the battlefield.

The Hishaku sorcerer, wielding Tree Sorcery, perceives their arrival as a trap meant to ensnare them. The spoilers reveal Uruha expertly executing his Iai sword techniques, fighting alongside Samura, who shows a hint of annoyance.

Meanwhile, a member of the Masumi suggests it’s an ideal moment to strategize an exit for Hakuri and the two sword-wielders. She thinks it’s best for them to hold back and let the Hishaku expend their Datenseki stones.

However, Hakuri is not on board with this plan; he insists on fighting alongside his comrades. The chapter concludes with Hakuri Sazanami activating his sorcery powers to join the battle beside the contracted sword bearers.
