Knox launched coordinated attacks in Japan, poisoning officials at a banquet and freeing experimental subjects from a government cargo ship. Japan's prime minister survived and ordered the CCG to mobilize against Knox.
As CCG and the Japanese government responded to Knox’s attacks, foreign embassies received traumatized people who threatened to expose Japan to international scrutiny. Tsukimi Shisui guarded Knox’s negotiations while the prime minister ordered an ambush, unaware that damaging allegations about the government were already trending.
Tsukimi Shisui ambushed Kishou Arima during negotiations between the Japanese government and Knox, turning the confrontation into a call for war. As the Washuu Clan scrambled to contain the exposure of its human experiments, Jackal prepared to exploit the weakness of its mountain stronghold.
As Knox exploited the downpour and Tokyo’s overwhelmed authorities to infiltrate the city and attack, Tsukimi Shisui transformed into a Kakuja while fighting Kishou Arima and escaped to seek more flesh. Aogiri Tree also mobilized against the invading Knox Ghouls in Tokyo Bay.
Aogiri Tree and the CCG formed an alliance to encircle Tsukimi Shisui and slow Knox’s advance, while Kuzen Yoshimura left Ward 20 to join the fighting. The chapter ended as the One-Eyed Owl and CCG elites blocked Shisui from returning to Knox’s main force.
Tsukimi Shisui fought to the limit at CCG headquarters and pressed the launcher, triggering a missile strike that destroyed Tokyo. He died in the blast, then opened his eyes in a messy single room after transmigrating.
