According to the Sakamoto Days chapter 225 spoilers, the upcoming instalment of the manga is titled What I Want to Protect.

The alleged Sakamoto Days chapter 225 spoilers commence with Lu asking Shin why he left Heisuke behind. Lu reminds him that bullets don't work on the assassin and that Heisuke might die. However, Shin fully trusts his friend, who assured him that he would be fine. Just as Sakamoto once trusted him, he will do the same with Heisuke.

Shin Asakura knows that Heisuke won't lose. Sakamoto Days chapter 225 spoilers then show a brief flashback scene, where Shin asks Heisuke if he is fine. The latter replies that he is not powerful yet, but he wants to be strong so that Shin can count on him when it truly matters.

Following this, Sakamoto Days chapter 225 spoilers focus on a conversation between Kumanomi and Heisuke. Kumanomi says it's been a while since they last met in Thailand, and Heisuke identifies the girl as the magnet woman who killed Hyo from the Order. At this moment, Kumanomi blitzes past Heisuke to chase after Sakamoto, leaving him to the masked assassin named Kito.

However, Heisuke doesn't want Kumanomi to get near Sakamoto. So, he fires a bullet in her direction, which she evades at the right moment. Kumanomi also uses her magnet gloves to topple a vehicle in front of Heisuke. She wants to kill Heisuke in case he is eager to die. Yet, she reminds him that the sacrifices of the ones who have died would then be wasted.

At this moment, in Sakamoto Days chapter 225 spoilers, Heisuke remarks that Hyo's death wasn't meaningless. He has been thinking for a while about how he could repay Hyo and honor his death. The answer was simple: he should live the moment with everything he had.

In other words, he won't let Hyo's death be in vain. Following this, Sakamoto Days chapter 225 spoilers show Piisuke arriving at the scene. Heisuke then launches his counterattack with Piisuke's assistance. He fires a bullet at Kito, who takes it head-on. According to the spoilers, Kito believes in the philosophy of pro-wrestling, where one must take hits.

He believes in enduring every move of his opponent until they get overpowered. Meanwhile, Heisuke wonders how he can overpower Kito, on whom his bullets don't work. Then, Kumanomi reminds him that he can't beat them with the gun alone. Subsequently, Heisuke plunges into despair, wondering about his next actions.

Yet, he doesn't want to betray the trust Shin has shown in him. Suddenly, he observes gasoline on the ground. With that, Heisuke aims at Kumanomi and Kito and fires a bullet close to the ground, igniting the gasoline in the process. Sakamoto Days chapter 225 spoilers end with Heisuke determined to use all his strength to take his foes down.
