Sakamoto Days Chapter 138 Expectations:
As Heisuke calculates his odds of winning a battle against the world’s best sniper, Sakamoto, Shin, and Natsuki continue to change locations to evade Kamihate. Amid this, Shin notices Kamihate’s thoughts emanating from a nearby building. It turns out they weren’t the only ones changing locations.
Shin starts reading Kamihate’s thoughts, which appear to be a story about an event nine years ago. Kamihate was targeting a psycho assassin who used girls’ internal fluids for his paintings. The assassin was approximately 8 kilometers away from Kamihate, and making the shot would have set a world record.
As he prepared to take the shot, he noticed Sakamoto standing behind the painter. Nevertheless, he pulled the trigger, and when he examined the scene through the sniper scope, the target was lifeless on the ground. A surge of excitement coursed through Kamihate as he had just set a world record. Following this shot, he gained recognition from the Guinness Book and became the only Japanese listed among the world’s 100 most influential assassins.
One year after achieving this milestone, Kamihate notices that the same painting the assassin was creating is on display at an exhibition titled ‘Assassins of the Century’ in France. Intrigued, Kamihate travels to France to view the painting for himself. To his astonishment, he discovers a bloodstain on the artwork.
This perplexes him because the bullet he fired had passed through the canvas before hitting the assassin, implying that someone behind him had fired a shot. The only person positioned behind the assassin was Sakamoto. Kamihate soon realizes that the world record was not solely his accomplishment. Devastated by this revelation, he resolves to prevent Sakamoto from seeing the painting.
The chapter returns to the sniping battle, where Kamihate gains the upper hand with accurate shots. Heisuke faces a disadvantage as he worries about the potential danger to civilians due to his shooting angles. Kamihate, a hermit, believes that solitude makes him stronger while trusting and depending on others weaken Heisuke.
Still confused about how to outmatch Kamihate, Heisuke suddenly has an idea: to follow the path of Kamihate’s bullets and shoot in that exact direction. While executing this plan, Kamihate’s bullet narrowly misses Heisuke’s face, but at the exact moment, Heisuke manages to land a shot at Kamihate. Heisuke could only hit Kamihate because he trusted Kamihate’s trajectory.
Conclusion
The battle, leaning in Kamihate’s favor, now appears to be evenly matched. The sniper showdown will continue in the next chapter of Sakamoto Days, expected to be released on October 8, 2023.
