The latest chapter of Takeru Hokazono’s hit manga Kagurabachi has arrived, and it delivers one of the most brutal fights in the series so far. Kagurabachi Chapter 120 hit digital shelves on April 26, 2026, bringing non-stop action and a shocking ending that left fans speechless.
The chapter titled “The Irishima Talks, Part 4” continues the intense battle between the Soga clan fighters and Aryu Mikaboshi, the crown prince of the Mikaboshi. What started as a negotiation quickly turned into a fight for survival, and this chapter shows just how outmatched the heroes really are.
Aryu Mikaboshi Shows He is on Another Level
The chapter opens with darkness surrounding everyone. The narration explains that Hiroto Soga’s body has reached the peak of human ability. He has the highest muscle strength and agility possible, which lets him use Kurotsuchi effectively. But even with this power boost, he cannot dodge Aryu’s hand. Aryu simply presses him down to the ground like he is nothing.
Shiba tries to use his teleportation sorcery to help, but Aryu is immune to sorcery effects. He easily dispatches Shiba, showing that raw power alone will not win this fight. The Mikaboshi prince makes everyone look weak. He punches Hiroto with a one-handed flurry of blows that brings back memories of Jojo’s famous “ora ora” attacks.
The Hidden Trick Behind Aryu’s Speed
While the others rush into battle, Yoshinojo Sorga takes a different approach. He steps back and watches carefully, trying to understand what makes Aryu so fast and strong. He figures out that Aryu is using numbing toxins in the air to dull his opponents’ senses. This makes Aryu look faster than he actually is.
Yoshinojo makes a bold and painful move. He bites his own tongue off to snap out of the poison’s effects. This brutal act clears his senses so he can fight properly. The moment he makes this discovery, Aryu gets upset. He does not like being figured out.
Teamwork Reaches Its Peak in Desperate Attack
With Yoshinojo holding Aryu in place, Hiroto and Mashiro launch their strongest attack. They compress an entire ironclad ship into a massive, dense sphere. This is not magic or sorcery. This is pure physical force on an unbelievable scale.
Mashiro uses his Akuu ability to blow up the ship, and Hiroto gathers all the steel toward their target. Even as Aryu cuts through Yoshinojo’s right hand and pushes his hand through his chest, Yoshinojo refuses to let go. His grip strength is so strong that Aryu cannot pull away.
At the very last second, Shiba appears from behind and teleports Yoshinojo, Aryu, and the compressed ship underwater. A gigantic explosion follows. The chapter ends with everyone wondering if Aryu Mikaboshi is finally dead.
Fans React to the Intense Chapter
Social media exploded after Chapter 120 dropped. Readers praised the incredible teamwork and the high stakes. One fan on MangaDex wrote, “Compressing an entire ship and slamming it down like a meteor? Finally, a cool attack.” Another reader added, “Ok ngl that was awesome but I doubt it’ll work.”
Japanese fans on Anime based share the excitement. One commenter said, “They really are the best unit. Please don’t die.” Another wrote, “Mashiro and the others are fully ready. They look absolutely cool.”
What Happened in the Previous Chapter
Kagurabachi Chapter 119 set up this intense fight by revealing that Ariu Mikaboshi had survived when most readers thought he was dead. The chapter also showed Hiroto using his inherited sorcery in new ways. Chapter 119 ended with everyone realizing they were facing something much more dangerous than expected.
The story has moved beyond simple revenge. The enchanted blades that once seemed like symbols of justice now look more complicated. The Mikaboshi are not simple villains anymore. Their power system, based on the Datenseki and insect-like survival rituals, adds a primal and brutal layer to every fight.
