Chapter 12 of Kagurabachi delves into the Kamunabi elite group's scheme to bring down Sojo, as they track down his hideout and execute their plans.

Despite his physical limitations, Chihiro pleaded with the Kamunabi to allow him to join their mission. Against all odds, he was accepted into the prestigious group and made a solemn vow to rescue the young girl.

The sorcerer had hired someone to find Sojo's hidden lair. Upon discovering the location, the group would take necessary action. In Chapter 12 of Kagurabachi, Shiba observed Chihiro's strong determination despite his physical weakness. He also thought back to a pleasant memory of him, Azami, and Chihiro when he was 18, and this triggered something in his mind. Suddenly, Chihiro received a call from an unknown person, likely from the Kamunabi asking him to join them.

In Kagurabachi chapter 12, the focus shifted to Genichi Sojo. While he relaxed in the bath, the mafia boss reflected on Chihiro's words. It was hard for him to believe that Kunishige Rokuhira had a son, especially since there were no records of such a fact. What's more, he was unaware of the existence of the seventh enchanted blade.

In Kagurabachi chapter 12, Sojo's place was visited by three men, including the pack's leader who returned a sword that Sojo had sold them. Although they were successful in using the enchanted blade's replica to eliminate their target, it resulted in the death of their ace member.

Following a tense exchange of words, one of the men attempted to attack Sojo. However, the mafia boss swiftly took down all three men, resulting in blood splattering everywhere. After his bath and drying his hair with a hair dryer, Sojo came to the realization that he needed to gain a better understanding of the blade, Cloug Gouger.

Requesting the blade from his subordinates, he made his way outdoors, fully aware that the Kamunabi would be lying in wait for him. Ikuto Hagiwara, the bespectacled sorcerer, closely observed Sojo as he and the other Kamunabi members prepared to confront him.

Chapter 12 of Kagurabachi then shifted focus to a different hideout where Char was being kept captive. As a couple of guards patrolled the area, they suddenly spotted a strange black goldfish-like creature hovering nearby. Without warning, a shadowy figure appeared and launched a surprise attack, swiftly taking out two of the three guards. It was revealed that the mysterious figure was Chihiro Rokuhira. The chapter concluded with the protagonist looking down at the remaining stunned guard.
