Smokin Parade Vol 7

Youkou finally encounters the murderous, rampaging behemoth Spider known as the "Lord" in an effort to take it down.

Youkou lives in a future where organ transplants are common and available to all, but life's not as idyllic as it seems--it turns out a nefarious organization is using that technology for their own evil ends! Only the elite squad Jackalope has any chance of stopping them before it's too late.

As Amenotori’s fabricated Spider pandemic grips the globe, the Jackalopes focus on the very heart of the organization. Despite Amenotori’s attention and resources being spread worldwide, however, the organization has reserved an elite force for its defense, pushing the Jackalopes and their new Gears to their limits! And while fighting to expose the truth, one of the Jackalopes’ own must reveal their personal secrets—but what will it mean for the team?

Amenotori has pitted friend against friend and brother against sister, and its crimes have taken a toll on the Jackalopes, both mentally and physically. But the Shikagura were just a little white lie in the vast sea of Amenotori's sins. In the frigid north, the Jackalopes' regional base has requested backup to help confront a new enemy-one as extreme as the landscape!

Under Shiba's leadership, the Jackalopes launch a surprise attack against the Amenotori Manufacturing Facility, where the Shikagura are undergoing maintenance. Every one of the Jackalopes' moves has been carefully informed by their intel network, but the Shikagura prove themselves to be even more wily than anyone anticipated! United by bonds stronger than blood, the Spiders have woven a web of crazed malice-and the Jackalopes have walked right into it!!

Armed with Gears--superpowered battle-ready prosthetics--Youkou has joined the Jackalopes in their fight against the monsters known as "Spiders." Humans transformed as a side effect of their own Amenotori-supplied transplants, the Spiders are becoming more and more active--and destructive. But one distinct group of Spiders, the Shikagura, is more organized than their randomly ruthless brethren, and they're honing in on one particular target...the Jackalopes!

After the Shikagura's deadly attack, the Jackalopes are more driven than ever to flush out the Spiders. The horror of seeing normal humans transformed into monsters is made even more terrible when those people were once friends and loved ones. For Youkou, it is his sister. For Akuta, a friend. And for Midari, now held captive and being tortured by a young boy she once hoped to save, fate has perhaps the cruelest lesson of all...

After their excursion up north, Youkou and the rest of Jackalope have returned to headquarters. But then Kotoharu makes himself vanish, and a plague begins to spread like wildfire...

In the northern land where everything is frozen, the gigantic spiders are causing chaos everywhere. The fight within the cold is harsh, but that might be the last of their worries...

Caiman has left the Hole behind for the Sorcerers' dimension in an attempt to unravel the mysteries of his past. As the Sorcerers' "Blue Night" festival draws to a close, Nikaido finds herself taken captive. Supernatural crime-syndicate boss En has taken an inordinate interest in her abilities, which may be far different, and far more powerful, than anyone suspects. Oblivious to his best friend's danger, Caiman continues his quest to determine his true identity, picking up some unexpected help—and meat pies—in the process. But once he gets wind of her predicament, he makes a beeline for En's heavily guarded fortress of a mansion. Prison confessions, daring escapes, strange tattoos, unexpected reunions, and devils aplenty abound in this volume of Dorohedoro! -- VIZ Media

They are Sir Edward Leithen, lawyer, Conservative Member of Parliament (MP), and ex-Attorney General; John Palliser-Yeates, banker and sportsman; and Charles, Earl of Lamancha, former adventurer and present Conservative Cabinet Minister. Under the collective name of 'John Macnab', they set up in the Highland home of Sir Archie Roylance, a disabled war hero who wishes to be a Conservative MP.

These neighbours are forewarned that 'John Macnab' will poach a salmon or a stag from their land and return it to them undetected...
