According to rumors Shinichiro heard from a local gang, there is a homeless man who claims to be a time-leaper. The older Sano boy is determined to meet this mysterious man, hoping to find a way to save Manjiro from his tragic fate. Fans already know that Shinichiro will somehow achieve this goal, although it is not clear yet how.

Still, the biggest mystery concerning this third time-leaper is his identity. Fans have come up with a plethora of theories about who this enigmatic man could be, with the most popular theory claiming that Hanma is the person behind everything that has happened in the series. Due to his baffling behavior, the young delinquent has always been a source of controversy in the community.

If Hanma truly taught Shinichiro how to time travel, many mysteries that revolve around the boy would be solved. This could explain how he and Kisaki were aware of the existence of time-leapers before many important characters in the franchise. No matter who the third time-leaper ends up being, fans are almost certain they will appear in Tokyo Revengers chapter 271.

Tokyo Revengers chapter 270 started with Shinichiro and Baji talking in the former’s car as they headed to the prison where Sanzu would be released from. According to Baji, Haruchiyo was imprisoned for attacking his friends with a sword. Shinichiro explained that Sanzu was only defending Mikey from mockery. After picking up Haruchiyo, the group headed to the hospital.

There, they visited Mikey, who looked extremely ill and fragile. A month later, Manjiro passed away, leaving a broken Shinichiro behind. Takeomi invited the young man to have some drinks. Once in the bar, Shinichiro heard a gang talk about a time traveler, which interested him, and he beat the gang members up for refusing to give him information.
