Sayabito Vol. 7: Swords of Destiny (Kodansha, 2026)

Forced to disband by pressure from above, the Protettori hide from the authorities while tracking down the unseen enemy responsible for their downfall... but their only lead is an old acquaintance of Rivia's-one whose life she inadvertently ruined. As they close in on the truth, Leon unveils a shadow of his past that haunts him and Rivia to this day. The same person who now wants him dead was once torn from him-a loss that shaped his ideals and forged the connections that fuel his fight to protect sayabito.
