Sakamoto Days Chapter 168 Recap

In the previous chapter, Sakamoto was faced with the task of caring for Nagumo, who was unconscious, suffering from hypothermia, and had lost a considerable amount of blood. Despite his own injuries, Sakamoto attempted to carry Nagumo on his back, but was unable to complete the entire journey. Luckily, Shin arrived and helped by carrying both Sakamoto and Nagumo. As they were making their way, they came across Amane, who was being pursued by Osaragi. Fortunately, Seba showed up and scared Osaragi away.

A week had passed, and Sakamoto regained consciousness, stirred by the enticing aroma of strategically placed food. Granny Miya had been tending to him, while Shin, Wutang, and Lu were also in attendance. Nagumo had also awoken, and they soon learned that the JAA had launched a search for them and Uzuki, who were now considered Special Class-A Extermination Targets.

Wutang inquired Sakamoto about the occurrences at the museum. According to Sakamoto, it was revealed that Uzuki was responsible for Takamura’s death. However, it was not Uzuki himself who caused the old man’s demise, but instead his Takamura persona that had surfaced due to the trauma of losing his friends and feeling scared. This clarification was logical, considering Takamura appeared to be the only one capable of taking his own life.

At the same time, Shishiba, Osaragi, and Kamihate met with a new individual who was already waiting for them. This person was Oki, a member of the Order known for their enigmatic nature. They had a tendency to be excessively fussy and were not pleased with the group’s slight delay. Oki even went as far as to mention that the time wasted could have been used to eliminate Shishiba. However, when challenged to carry out the threat, they declined, citing their unwillingness to work without compensation.

Despite being abroad, Oki was informed of the unfortunate events that had occurred – the deaths of two Order members, the resignation of two more, and the destruction of multiple JAA branches. Feeling disappointed, he took it upon himself to take responsibility for these outcomes and vowed to end his own life after completing his current mission. However, he also made it known that he intended to seek retribution against Sakamoto, Nagumo, and Uzuki before carrying out his final act.

What to Expect from Chapter 169 of Sakamoto Days (Speculative)

According to Wutang, the worst-case scenario would be for Uzuki to adopt Takamura’s personality. In Sakamoto Days chapter 169, it will be intriguing to see where he is and what he is doing, as he has faced significant setbacks while attempting to carry out Asaki’s assassination.

Despite the likelihood that Oki will focus on Sakamoto and Nagumo before anyone else, readers can anticipate gaining insight into his skills and abilities.
