Sakamoto Days Chapter 159: Release Date, Speculation, Read Online

In chapter 158 of “Sakamoto Days,” titled “Super Sumo,” Shin challenged Haruma in a sumo match. He concluded he couldn’t beat him in a death match, so a sumo fight following the rules was his best chance of winning. He used a freeze bomb he found earlier to render Haruma immobile and burst his eardrums with his attack. 

This was to affect his balance in the fight so that throwing him out of the ring would be easier. Shin punched him with all his force but was met with an unmovable wall. Haruma broke his fingers, and when Shin was internally screaming for him to stop, something unthinkable happened.

As we wait for Chapter 159, here is everything you need to know-

3. Chapter 159 Speculation

Ever since the explosion happened from the bomb, Shin’s ESP wasn’t working, and he had to fight Haruma with just his power-enhancing gloves. However, something weird occurred near the end of the latest chapter. As Shin screamed inside his mind for Haruma to stop, his opponent’s body suddenly froze, defying all logic. 

This might be a coincidence and an aftereffect of getting his eardrums blown, but we can’t rule out the possibility of Shin’s ESP evolving into something much more significant. Hopefully, in the next chapter, we’ll learn what happened. 

3. Recap of Chapter 158

Shin challenged Haruma to a sumo fight, thinking it was his only chance to smash Haruma with all his power. Harume was surprised Shin still hadn’t given up on the fight, even with all those injuries. He asked him why he was going so far, and Shin replied that someone he admires had trusted him to watch his back, and that’s enough reason not to give up.

Seeing his sportsmanship, Haruma accepted his challenge. He surrounded the arena with blades and added a rule that whoever gets pushed out of the circle dies. Haruma leaped towards Shin as soon as the battle started, but to his surprise, suddenly, the fountains below him began working. This was precisely what Shin had been hoping for.

Earlier, he noticed one of Natusuki’s freeze bombs in the rubble and picked it up. When the fountain water hit Haruma, Shin threw the bomb at him, freezing him in mid-air. Shin was no fool, and he knew if he directly hit him like that, it wouldn’t do much but release him from his ice prison, so he clapped his hands as hard as possible, resulting in Haruma’s eardrums getting busted.

This action wasn’t to make Haruma deaf; he did it to disrupt his balance. Since this plan worked, Shin quickly went in for an enhanced punch to throw him off, but Haruma caught his fist like it was nothing. He broke Shin’s fingers along with the enhancing glove with tremendous force. Shin groaned in agony, but he knew he couldn’t give up.

Something unexpected happened next. As he screamed “Stop” inside his mind, Haruma’s whole body suddenly froze. Shin was unsure what happened but couldn’t let this opportunity go to waste. He grabbed Haruma’s head and twisted it to throw him out of the ring.
