# WebtoonLib — Chainsaw Man #190 ## Series - title: Chainsaw Man - slug: chainsaw-man-60cd22 ## Chapter - number: 190 - release_date: 2025-05-29 ### Summary The sound isn't a roar. It's a sharp, mechanical cough. \*RRRRRRIP.\* Barem’s head snaps up. The desperate fury on his face melts away, replaced by a slow, spreading beatific grin. The flames from his arms sputter and die, plunging the street into a sudden, eerie quiet, broken only by the wet shuffling of the mob. He heard it. He got what he wanted. "He's here," Yoru's voice is a flat line in Asa's mind. A statement of fact. Asa scans the rooftops, her heart hammering against her ribs. "Where?" The shuffling stops.

He hits the pavement with a heavy, graceless thud, his knees buckling slightly. The sea of bodies parts for him, a silent, reverent corridor forming between him and Barem. He starts walking. Not running. Just a steady, deliberate pace, his eyes locked on Barem. The fanatics don't cheer. They don't attack. They just watch, their heads tracking his movement. A few reach out, their fingers brushing his torn shirt, but he doesn't react. He is an anchor of purpose in an ocean of madness. "Don't you see the glory of it?" Barem continues, his voice ringing with zealous conviction. "This pathetic life was a prison!
