チェンソーマン第5話

It feels so good.

What’s this?

Breast pads.

They’re magical items that make your boobs look bigger.

Come on. You got two more.

Okay. Last touch.

Okay. That’s it. The fun’s over.

Good, isn’t it?

Congratulations on getting to touch nice boobs.

Now we’re even.

Meowy is alive and kicking.

-I don’t have to be a Devil Hunter anymore -There’s a lot I want to say…

-but Makima would never let me go. -It’s weird.

I’ll be so good as to assist you.

Hope we can be good teammates.

Meowy, time for bed.

Is that it?

This is delicious.

I want another plate.

-Give me that if you don’t want it. -Hey you!

Where are we going to kill Devils today?

Hey.

Hey.

Hey!

Chop!

This is an apology for damaging buildings.

This is a confirmation of the usage of the Devil’s corpse.

And… This is from the Ministry of Transport.

Sign here, and here.

Is all this paperwork annoying?

You defeated Bat Devil, but it feels like a punishment.

Denji, is there anything on your mind?

I finally got what I’ve always wanted.

But it didn’t feel that great

when I got it.

If I want something else in the future, when I finally get what I want,

would I still feel like I’m happier during the process?

Then it’s just a load of crap, isn’t it?

What are you referring to?

I touched a girl’s boobs for the first time. It wasn’t as great as I thought.

Denji.

I think, for something like that,

the more you know the other person,

the better it’ll feel.

It’s hard to tell what they’re thinking.

So you have to look carefully at their hands first.

The length of their fingers.

Are their palms cold

or warm?

The shape of their ears.

Did anyone bite your finger before?

B-Bite…

Remember this.

Even if you couldn’t see,

you have to be able to tell it’s me

from how hard you get bitten.

Remember.

I will.

Denji.

I have a request.

Is that okay?

Yeah.

I want you to defeat the Gun Devil.

The Gun Devil…

It showed up in America 13 years ago. Current whereabouts are unknown.

Every Devil Hunter dreams to kill it.

It’s very strong.

But I think you can kill it.

Because you are more special than other Devil Hunters.

If you can kill the Gun Devil,

I’ll grant you a wish. Anything.

If I can kill the Gun Devil…

Ms. Makima will grant me a wish. Anything.

So… You mean…

As long as I kill the Gun Devil,

you’ll do anything I want?

Anything… Such as–

Anything, Denji.

Cool. Even dirty stuff?

This mission is hard enough for me to believe that you’d deserve it.

It was when the whole world tried to use guns to gain an advantage over Devils.

Guns started to get used in civil conflicts.

Such cases were all over the news,

which made the people even more afraid of guns.

There was a massive terrorist attack with guns involved in America.

That was when the Gun Devil appeared.

“This is where I live.”

The City Mouse said.

“That house is so big.”

-“The City Mouse’s family…” -Dad.

Let’s go play catch.

Taiyo doesn’t feel well.

Go play by yourself.

Taiyo is always like that.

He’s sick all the time.

Big Brother should care for his sibling. Go and play alone.

I…

I want to play with my big brother.

Don’t follow me.

You’re so annoying. Don’t follow me.

I want to play alone.

Take that!

Idiot. I told you to stop.

So cold.

Mom and Dad will kill me if you catch a cold.

Let’s play catch so our hands won’t get cold.

Go home and get your gloves.

Gun Devil killed 1.2 million people in five minutes

and has been staying under the radar till now.

From then on, their fear of Devils grew stronger.

The Devils got stronger than ever.

To keep the Gun Devil’s strength under control as best as we could,

the law forbids people to keep guns.

The government started to limit the news reports of such cases too.

I see. I’m not sure I fully understand,

but the gist is that it’s unbelievably strong, right?

Do you think you can defeat it?

Well, I guess…

If I try my very best,

there should be no problem.

Then our first step is to find the Gun Devil.

How do we do that?

Here are the pieces of the Gun Devil that we’ve managed to collect.

It moves at a very high speed so a part of its body burned and fell off.

When a Devil eats this,

it’ll get stronger because of the Gun Devil’s power.

See? It stuck back together.

The Gun Devil is very strong,

so that’s why when a piece of his body reaches a certain size,

it goes back to the original body.

When this piece gets bigger…

we’ll find the Gun Devil.

Found it.

This Devil ate a piece of the Gun Devil?

It is indeed too much for a low-level Devil.

Did it eat the piece? Or was it forced to eat it?

Whichever happened, it doesn’t change our mission.

We kill every Devil there is.

Then we can find it.

The Public Safety Sector got a mission.

Someone saw a Devil in a hotel.

The guests’ status is unknown.

Several civil Devil Hunters died trying to kill this Devil.

It probably ate a piece of the Gun Devil.

Tokyo Special Division 4 sent six members for the job.

The Devil is hiding somewhere in the hotel.

It’s not a regular Devil.

It’s probably a Devil who ate a piece of the Gun Devil.

It can probably be Gun Devil itself.

The bigger the piece, the stronger the attraction.

It can’t be the Gun Devil.

Right.

Sounds great. I’ll get it.

You forgot about honorifics.

-Huh? -Huh?

-Why? What do we get out of it? -Humans are so stupid and arrogant.

Mr. Hayakawa.

Sir.

Good.

Yeah!

-That’s easy. -Mr. Hayakawa.

Should we really trust them as our comrades

when battling the Devils?

A Fiend and a rascal.

I can’t trust them.

You don’t have to.

They are the first to face Devils in missions.

If they try to run away or betray us, we can just kill them.

Darn, that’s how you treat animals.

You have no human rights.

Why is he so grumpy?

Is it because of this morning?

Did that prank go too far?

That wasn’t a prank anymore.

I ought to kill you two!

Wow, scary. What happened?

Aki, don’t go so hard on these poor kids.

That’s right.

I almost got killed by Bat and I don’t even get to rest.

I want a reward.

Right. I’ll be so good as to offer something.

Whoever kills the Devil this time,

I’ll kiss them on the cheeks.

No. Please don’t do that.

How could a maiden…

Motivation only comes with reward.

Right?

I don’t need a kiss.

Don’t worry. I have my motivation.

What’s this?

I’ve decided who I’m gonna kiss.

I’ll collect whatever pieces just for her.

I won’t kiss anyone before I kill the Gun Devil.

Oh, my. I can’t believe you said that in front of Aki.

And someone gave me an important lesson.

Those things only feel good when you understand each other.

I don’t even know your name, so of course, I’m not interested in your kiss.

Really now?

Well Denji, if you kill the Devil,

I’ll give you a French kiss.

Hey! Stop!

It’s dangerous to act alone. Don’t run!

-It’s so fun to tease boys. -Did you hear…

What should I do…

I want to drink blood.

It’s dangerous! I told you to stop!

For the last six months, Ms. Himeno has been helping me and taking care of me.

How can a nameless rascal take her lips?

I’d rather get a kiss on the cheek.

Piss off!

Get away from me, stinky guy! Gross!

-What did you say? -Go to hell!

-I’ve something else that I want! -I want to join!

-Ms. Himeno. -Why would I care? -Can we use these rookies? -Come on!

Arai is not strong enough, but he’s motivated.

-Kobeni is not brave, but she’s strong. -Go…

Aki, do you think they can survive?

Let’s kill each other!

It doesn’t matter whether I think they are strong or not.

After a year, they’ll all either die or quit.

-That’s not what I asked. -I’ll kill you, Power!

-Don’t die, Aki. -I’ll kill you too, short guy!

Himeno.

He’s your new teammate.

He’s a little bratty, but good enough to use.

Do work hard.

I’m Aki. Nice to meet you.

Can we use you?

Probably. Who knows?

You’re my sixth teammate.

They all died.

They all died because they were all useless.

Don’t die, Aki.

There’s not a sight of the Devil.

Can we trust that piece you have?

I’m dozing off.

It’s coming.

Got you!

It’s floating!

Let’s fight!

Dirty Devil.

I scared you so much that you were floating.

No, that’s my ability.

What?

I made a contract with Ghost Devil.

I gave it my right eye to use its power. I can control its right hand.

My Ghost is invisible and strong. Isn’t that convenient?

How is it, Aki? Is there a piece of Gun?

No reaction. It’s not this one.

Yeah? Let’s go upstairs then.

Is it okay for you to tell me all about your ability like that?

I thought you were here to keep me under control.

It’s easier to work together if you know my ability.

And I’ve still got an ace up my sleeve. It’s fine…

Really?

What if I say I’ll kill this girl?

Put your weapon away.

I can kill you anytime if you try something funny.

I can’t touch it…

Let’s save all the trouble and be nice to each other.

One day I’ll eat you!

Don’t you dare. She’s gonna kill me.

You lot. The Devil is around here.

Be quiet…

Eh?

-What is it? -It must taste terrible to eat it raw.

We just went up from the 8th floor to the 9th.

-Yeah? -Whatever, idiot.

This is the 8th floor.

Maybe you saw it wrong?

No. Something’s wrong. I’ll go check.

Got it. I’ll make it a steak.

Steak?

I want to try that.

Eh?

Arai just went downstairs, right?
