Upon Chihiro's inquiry about Char and Hinao's condition, Shiba provided reassurance that they had successfully saved Hinao's life. Although Char's whereabouts remained unknown, Shiba maintained hope for her survival.
Kagurabachi chapter 11 then witnessed Shiba informing Chihiro about the details he had obtained from the Cylinder Head sorcerer. It was unveiled that Sojo possessed Datenseki, the raw material for the creation of the Enchanted Blade.

The chapter details the discovery of the unique ore during the Seitei War and then shifts to Sojo's base in Kagurabachi chapter 11. There, he reveals the ore's secret to one of his lackeys, explaining that the Datenseki constantly increases the spirit energy within the ore, posing a danger to human bodies. He also mentions that even using the ore to make blades would have the same result.

Kunishige Rokuhira (Chihiro's father) achieved the remarkable feat of stabilizing this power and crafting the legendary blades. According to Shiba, Sojo was convinced that he could harness the DNA of the Kyonagi clan along with the ore to create such Katanas, which is why he kidnapped Char.
The Kamunabi members in Kagurabachi chapter 11 then revealed that the cells of a Kyonagi clan member are crucial for stabilizing the chaotic power of the ore. Following this revelation, the chapter depicted Char being imprisoned for experiments. Meanwhile, at the hospital, Shiba expressed regret to Chihiro for failing to anticipate Sojo's attack.

Azami promised Chihiro and detailed his formation of a specialized Kamunabi unit to take down Sojo and his Cloud Gouger. Recognizing Chihiro's proficiency with an Enchanted Blade, Azami expressed his desire to include him in the squad.
In chapter 11 of Kagurabachi, five Kamunabi members arrived at the hospital. One of them informed Chihiro that they had investigated one of Sojo's bases, only to find it empty. They planned to conduct another search and relocate once they obtained new information.

Subsequently, the Kamunabi sorcerers approached Chihiro for details about the Cloud Gouger blade in order to devise a more effective strategy. Although the protagonist agreed, he expressed his desire to be involved in their plan.
Many Kamunabi sorcerers were initially opposed to the idea, but they changed their minds after hearing about his accomplishments in the battle against Genichi Sojo. However, in Kagurabachi chapter 11, it was revealed that Chihiro's left arm muscle fiber was shredded after his battle with Genichi Sojo.
Consequently, he was unable to wield the blade for a month. But Chihiro was not one to idly stand by. The sorcerer from Kamunabi, sporting glasses, took note of the protagonist's determination and revealed their main strategy for taking down Sojo. He instructed Chihiro to infiltrate and save the girl while they confront the Mafia boss. Chapter 11 of Kagurabachi concluded with Chihiro joining Kamunabi for the ambitious plan.
