Description
Good Friends - Better Enemies
Arata believed his travails in Thailand were over, but Kishimoto has other plans. The moment Arata lets his guard down, his former colleague strikes, kidnapping Hakim and Sophie.
For the first time, Arata must contend with the imminent threat of a subordinate's death. Will he crack, or will he find a way to follow through under such pressure?
This gripping continuation is brilliantly captured in Marginal Operation: Volume 9 by Daisuke Kimura, Yuri Shibamura, and Ningen Ningen. It's a thrilling exploration of trust and survival, testing the limits of friendship amidst peril.
