Ch 316 of Black Clover Reveals Asta’s 4th Sword: Yami’s Demon Slasher
All of you who were falling out of your seats out of excitement for Asta’s fourth sword, congratulations, Tabata-sensei has granted your wish. Chapter 316 of Black Clover showed Asta wielding Yami’s Demon Slasher katana.
Although the previous chapter had already given us a glimpse at Asta holding the sword, the latest one shows us the full power of the combo. Has the student already surpassed his teacher?
As soon as Lucifero started manifesting, Asta fused with Liebe. He used Devil Union along with Yami’s sword, the Demon Slasher.
All of Asta’s original three swords have their own powers. From reflecting, borrowing to absorbing magic, his swords are unique when combined with anti-magic.
So when Asta used Yami’s sword, the katana acquired the ability to cut only what it chooses to. The blade doesn’t cut what it wants to protect. Since it’s a magical world, I do not doubt that a smart-katana can exist.
Fans who were expecting the Equinox are also happy to see its anti-magic version.
Both Nacht and Yami are seen having a proud parent moment in the end as Asta has achieved what the whole Black Bulls squad couldn’t.
Now that Asta has used Yami’s sword to defeat Lucifero’s kaiju form, will he have to give it back? Yami has already let him use it multiple times in the past, it won’t hurt to let him use it again, right?
Still, being the goody-two-shoes that Asta is, I doubt he will want to have his captain’s sword.
Asta’s sword collection – Which is the strongest?
Although Asta abruptly stopped Lucifero’s manifestation, I doubt it’s over just yet. The grand battle can’t just end so soon.
I expect Lucifero to take even more drastic steps to manifest, or maybe he will send his spawn from the other realm?
