In Chapter 139 of Chainsaw Man, we began by resolving the unresolved cliffhanger from the previous chapter. The stranger who introduced himself to Denji as the Sword Devil later disclosed that he was a hybrid under Makima's control who took part in the Control Devil and Chainsaw Man's final battle. The hybrid from Denji's past was then revealed to go by the name of Miri Sugo and to have transferred to Denji's school. This infuriated the main character since Sugo immediately attracted the attention of the female students.
Denji afterward conversed with Sugo while serving as a human chair for Fumiko, his bodyguard. Sugo revealed that several of Makima's weapon hybrids and himself are high-ranking members of the Chainsaw Man Church. He then made Denji an offer to join this company. Denji thought it over before rejecting the offer. Sugo then said that in return for saving Denji from Makima's clutches, he wanted to be his friend. He told Denji as he walked away that if he joined the church, he could have as many girls as he wanted to sleep with. Denji completely changed his mind in his answer and stated he would.
Expectation From Chainsaw Man Chapter 140
There have been a lot of fan theories after it was revealed that one of Makima's weapon hybrids is alive.
And also Denji was a little too attached to his freedom to support the cause. This left Miri feeling completely let down. With this, the focus of the following chapter will shift to Miri's efforts to persuade Denji to join his group. He might ask him to join it forcibly now that he has rejected the opportunity to do so peacefully. It is expected that the relationship between Miri, Denji, and the church will change, possibly exposing more about the goals of the church and Denji's function in the hybrid world. It will be intriguing to observe how the church fits into this narrative.
