The latest chapter of Kaiju No.8 is back with more information on the battalion’s current status, and this article will cover exactly that.

Kaiju No.9’s Past

The chapter began with a quick reveal of Kaiju No.9’s past, where he looked much smaller than his current self.

However, this mindset of his changed when he suddenly realised one day that he was significantly stronger than humans.

Back in the real world, it was confirmed that Kaiju No.8’s core was destroyed. Despite this, Hibino still showed some signs of retaliation. Headquarters detected the signal of an entirely new monster of unknown resilience from within No.9.

After this, No.9’s face split from the middle, revealing several eerie eyes within. Right after this, a mysterious mark appeared on Kafka’s arm, and almost immediately, the arm blew off, causing a ton of wreckage behind him.

Right after this, a similar mark appeared on Kafka’s chest right where he got stabbed, and the same phenomenon occurred again: a huge hole was punctured in No.8’s chest, and he was sent flying backward.
