While Senku is bedridden and recovering, Chrome has begun the preparations for building a drill to dig an underground tunnel. Dr. Xeno, not holding back, is determined to capture Senku’s ship and is currently developing a secret war machine? Catch the latest chapter updates with us!
1. Chapter 162 Discussions and Predictions
With his roadmap ready, Chrome has started building a drill machine! Senku is still recovering, but according to his plan, Gen has bought enough time to evade the enemy’s attack. But during this time, Xeno continues to build his mysterious machine.
Its race against time for the scientists because everything now depends on which side will attack first! The reader’s question, what exactly will Zeno do with the little present Senku sent him, the Medusa. Senku and the rest inevitably sent that to him to buy time, but the main question is, does Zeno have the equipment to study the device?
But due to the battery being dead, it was not going to work in Xeno’s hands anyway. Still, we cannot be sure yet as Xeno has superior equipment and the platinum ring to try and find a way to understand Medusa’s operative factor.
There have been discussions about Xeno’s secret weapon being a missile, but considering that making biofuel with the corn they had, it could take a month. Whereas, Brody stated he would be done with the weapon in two weeks, so the timeline is a mismatch.
However, readers are satisfied with Chrome’s character growth, acknowledging that he had learned amazingly form Senku and his brilliant mind for inventions without prior knowledge of the machine!

4. Recap of Chapter 161
I. Gen buys time
Chapter 161, titled “Craft Wars,” begins with Chrome preparing a roadmap of a secret subterranean tunnel to sneak into the enemy camp! On the ship, Ryusui tells the crew that Xeno’s gang will surely try to get them to surrender, but they should make the enemy think that a quick strike would be risky and that being patient was wise!
Senku plans to make Ukyo send a Medusa shot at Xeno’s castle. Dr. Xeno receives the present, and Gen convinces Xeno that it was a petrification device! He explains the enemy that they found a bunch of it on the Southern island, and since it was out of power, they did not turn to stone.
He perfectly tells a lie, according to Senku’s expectations.
II. Xeno’s mysterious machine?
Ray doubts Gen’s credibility, but Xeno confirms that the small device on the table surpassed the old world’s technology. Stanley tells Gen to give him the device’s specifications, but Gen nods his head, indicating that he was unaware.
Xeno asks Brody how long it would take to complete their secret weapon, which would allow him to take over Senku’s ship before they could even use Medusa. Brody answers him that it would be complete in two weeks.
III. Chrome’s Kingdom of Science
On the other hand, Chrome and gang design their new warcraft machine. Chrome works hard at arithmetic and estimates the length of their tunnel. Chrome officially creates a road map for his first significant invention and stuns everyone!
He flaunts the most robust machine, which was an essential part of his plan and calls it ‘Diggerific rotating impelling land-eating loop knife.’ After taking one look, Tsukasa and Ukyo guessed that it was a drill and shock Chrome instead.
