Well, there was some secret that Rafaela mentioned to Claire before the whole mess occurred. I hope we finally find out what that is, and it might even give Claire a power-up.

Chinese spoiler for ch128

Spoiler for Chinese:

title: 聖都の存亡

没有什么劲爆打斗的一话（？）好多好多对话（翻译：什么！？摔—）


开篇的第一页所有人就已经上岸了，所以完全没有所谓的航海剧情(ps,新10，新7新8目测都不在队伍中~ ~~)

小分队在圣都周围遇到很多人形觉醒者，而且并非泛泛之辈，miria推测他们应该全部都是以前的上位个位排 名的战士，而且从他们口中得知，几日前城市中撤走了全部居民，只有少量人员留守，圣都如今已经 无一居民了

海伦质问道，那为何你们会在这个时间点在这个地方出现？

对方回答：好奇心（晕..
有人补充说是被前所未见过超越深渊的力量(你们懂的)吸引而来，大家一起来围观的

（中间出现的人有，男性时代的no4克洛诺斯和no6拉兹，ps，都不帅）


然后大家进了城....小金库开始卖萌卖的内牛满面，就差扑miria怀里了。。

其他熟面孔一一登场，包括miata，嘉拉迪雅，还有飞刀和格古


废话不多说，嘉拉带着一行人前去看肉团...
呈现在众人面前的是，即将...破肉而出的槑的觉醒体姿态！！！

嘉拉解释说，10天前这团肉肉开始发生变化，5天左右的时间已经完全的上端人形形成了~~如果这家伙完全跑 出来那圣都就....


之后米里雅和圣都中继续留守的众人跑回去开会商讨对策~~（中段有小金库的可爱表现><)


最后一幕是留守在圣都周围的那些原战士，发现卡卡迫近的速度变快了~~

然后本月没了

Pretty tired. Pardon the poor translation attempt.

Spoiler for translation:

Life or death of the Holy city.


Not much fighting in this chapter. On the other hand, it is very
dialogue heavy.


From page one, all members of the team had already made the
landing, so there was no sailing story. (Ps:
the #10, #7 and #8 of the new generation were not in the ranks. )

The team encountered many awakened beings in human forms near the
holy city, and they were no push overs. Miria suspected that they
all used to be warriors of upper ranking or single digits. From
them they learned that almost all people of the city have
been evacuated, only few stayed on guard and no
residents remained in the city.

Hellen asked then why they appeared there at such a time?

The answer was simply curiosity. Someone added that they were
drawn here to witness the unprecedented power that surpassed even
abyssal ones.

Among them there were No.4 Cronus and No.6 Laz of the male
generation. Neither was handsome.

Then everyone enters the city. Clarice was so excited to met
everyone again that she was in tears, and she almost flied into
the arms of Miria.

Then the familiar faces all showed up, including Miata, Galatea and the guards duo.

Without further delay, Galatea led the team to check out the
blob. In front of everyone was the awakened form of Priscilla about to break out of the blob.

Galatea explained that since 10 days ago the blob started to
change, and the upper torso of a human form appeared in about 5
days. If it is unleashed from the blob, then Rabona will surely
meet its destruction.

After that Miria held a meeting to discuss the counter measures
with everyone remaining on guard in the city. Amid it there was a cute scene of Clarice.

The end scene shows the former warriors staying near the holy city discovered that Cassandra had accelerated toward the city.

End of chapter.

Spoiler for Someone posted this as a ch 128 spoiler pic... but no name given or anything, some suspect it's from another of Yagi's works but it's clearly his art style:

EDIT: Reread the post it was posted on on baidu, her name is Octavia... she is probably one of the high ranking ABs from the spoilers (meaning she'll be dead any chapter now, *sigh what a waste of a dress)

[Tempest35]

^ Wow, she's incredibly cute! I'd like t- *guts ripped out*

Why are the cute ones the ones that want to eat you (and not in the good way)!?

You mean "what a waste of a cute girl!".

Why is it that all the characters other than the ghost 7(expect maybe Cynthia) are cute.
The 7 are at best very average, not to say one wouldn't find them appealing tho.

[Tom Bombadil]

Chinese scan out at the usual place.

[Tempest35]

Well, Miria was the best looking one, in my book, until she got scarred up. Now she seems to have an 'in spite of' beauty to her - inner beauty, I guess it can be called. I never thought the Claymores were suppose to be 'cute', but rather 'comely' (older English word).

Well not so much cute as say a "looker".
Again it's not that 7 aren't lookers just they tend to pale in comparison to alot of other characters(mostly ones that appear after them).
Alot of other character's have a bit of flare to their looks, as for the 7 they are all pretty plain.
I know that since they are main character's you want to keep details down but going that little bit extra can make a world of difference.

[Mizuno]

Someone already colored the page with her in it.

[GundamZZ]

Isn't she wearing apron? Does she make "lovely wife bento"?

I thought that #4 guy(big beard guy) was killed for sure. Since Organization sent Isley, Rigardo, Duff and Riful to kill him, I thought he's dead for sure. Instead, he's bragging as one of survivors now.

It seems awakened beings other than rank #1 have high survivor rate. It probably they have very efficient information network. Their downfall could be their curiosity.

Spoiler:

Before Miria's speedy arrival, they already knew that the .ORG bust and the birth of new dark pit thing. They also learned the awakened being who's beyond the dark pit. and

she's breaking free. It leads to city's evacuation.

Overall, this chapter has an interesting plot. I'm anticipating to see the outcome.

Enjoy!
Warning! I may get some of the translation or things incorrect.

Spoiler:

The Holy City's Destruction

In order to save Clare the warriors headed for the Holy City, they need to get there before the awaken Dust Eater.

-Helen asks if this is for real. They headed out from the organization and only needed 10 days to reach Rabona. If they were to travel on foot, it would have taken them at least 20 days. The ship is incredible Helen says. Miria says that since they don't have to climb mountains and go through forests that is one of the reason as well.
-Tabitha senses that Cassandra is still very far away and because she is not traveling at high speed, they have arrived before Cassandra in at least 6 or 7 days.
-Miria says that they should have enough time.
-Raki wants to go on ahead first to check on Cid and Galk.
-Octavia is like oh! good afternoon. Raki asks if she is a citizen of Rabona, she says no as she came here from the west. Raki asks if she is going to Rabona, and if so they could go together since they are heading there.
-Octavia says that she is fine here since they are no longer any citizens inside Rabona. Raki asks what happened and why is there no one?
-Deneve tells Raki that it doesn't look like she wants to fight them, but they should still keep their distance. Raki looks around and realize there are many people surrounding Rabona.
-Deneve says that all of them are awaken beings. Raki is surprised. Deneve tells Raki that he may have encountered some when he was with Clare and perhaps from the organization as well. When the warriors lost their human hearts they become those monsters.
-Miria says that these awaken beings don't look like the average ones, they are probably all once single digits and they all possess high ranking levels of power.
-Miria asks Octavia if there are no citizens in Rabona, then what have they done? Octavia replies that they haven't done anything because since a few days ago all of the citizens have evacuated the city and only small number of troops remained. Octavia tells Miria if they want the detail they should ask the troops that have stayed behind and perhaps their comrades are inside as well. Tabitha senses that Galatea, Clarice, and Miata are inside Rabona.
-Helen asks what the hell are they doing here and why are they all gathered here. Chronos replies that it's probably due their curiosity. A power that is not just beyond theirs, but beyond that of an Abyssal Ones as well. Someone with this power is probably the strongest one in all of the warriors' history, and thus they want to witness it and see it with their own eyes.
-Chronos says that they want to see the faces of the ones of have destroyed the organization as well. Miria asks why. Chronos replies that they are not stupid, the conflicts between the abyssal ones and how the organization make their moves have direct effects on their life and survival, and thus they naturally would gather information on the organization. They never dreamt that the organization would be destroyed. Chronos says that is the reason and they have all gathered here out of their own free will and they have kept their distance in case something happens they each are confident that they could escape on their own. Chronos says that they are a group of old foxes that have gathered here to see a show and they are all eagerly waiting to see that interesting thing.
-Miria says let's go. Helen asks if it's ok to just leave them like that. Miria tells them that the guy that was talking is No.4 Chronos and the guy standing behind him is No.6 Lex or Rax from the male generation. The girl that first greeted them is probably past No.2 Octavia (she has a nickname but not sure how to translate it correctly). The others are probably past No.3 and No.5, they are not awaken beings that could be dealt with easily.
-Miria says that their curiosity as the reason for them to be here may not be a lie. They were all once warriors themselves with battle experiences, they wanted to see the awaken form of the strongest warrior may not be too unreasonable. Miria says that if things do go unexpectedly, then how many of them could really escape unharmed and there is no needs for them to ask.
-Clarice cries to Captain Miria! Helen asks why is she calling captain all the sudden. Clarice asks what happened and what is the going in the surrounding area? Miria tells her to calm down and that they are ones with questions.
-Galatea says that it is really frightening, never thought Miria would really come back alive. Miria apologizes because of her lone action she have caused Rabona to be attacked by awaken beings. Galatea says let the past be the past, and comparing to this, the matter at hands is more urgent. Miria asks Galatea that she heard from the group outside that all citizen are gone and asks what had happened. Galatea replies it's faster and easier for them to see than it is for her to tell them.
-Cid teases Raki saying that he is still alive and he has grown even bigger and he is catching up to Galk soon.
- Miria asks about the ground troops that stay behind. Galatea replies that they are volunteery troops as she told them that they are enough, but the troops still insist on staying in Rabona because they wanted to guard it themselves and they are prepared for death.
-Miria asks what is that. Helen says impossible, you must be kidding, this one's half of her body is already coming out! Miria asks Deneve if this is the one. Deneve replies that is her and it is a face she never wants to see again, and that without question that is the one that is beyond an Abyssal One.
-Galatea tells them that as you can see, this thing started to change its shape around 10 days ago and around 5 days ago it has become this humanoid shape. Galatea has thought about stabbing Priscilla with a sword or bring this thing somewhere else, but she is not sure how it would affect Priscilla. In the end, she has decided to just kept the blob the way it is. Miria asks if the citizens have evacuated to the another city and that the choice Galatea made was correct. Miria says that if she just stab Priscilla, it may have affect the traveling speed of the distance Abyssal One.
-Miria wants to tell the volunteery troops and even Raki to evacuate with the citizen to somewhere safe and it be best for them as the Holy City Rabona would perhaps become ruins and nothing would be left in there in a few days.
- Cid says that he is happy that he just meet up with old friends, but now he hears devastating news. Miria apologizes and tells him that even if they try their best, she think that the possibility that everything would go according to their plan might be very low. She wants the troops to evacuate the Holy City just like the citizen did.
-Cid tells Miria that they have reject Sister Galatea's suggestion to evacuate. Everyone that have decided to stay have firmly made up their mind, doesn't matter how the situation have changed, they would not change their mind. Miria tells them that she understands and sorry for asking them again.
-Clarice asks what should Miata and her do. Miria tells her that they have taken over Galatea's work as the eye, and so Miata and Clarice should meet up with the Rabona citizens. Clarice says that if it's possible she wants to stay in Rabona as well.
-Helen screams at her asking what did she say, and that she knows very well that it is a life and death situation here, and what can a colored hair like her do. Clarice replies that everyone in the city have treated her kindly and she really like this city very much. Clarice says that even her if only a little she wishes to help protect this city. Miata tells mama Clarice don't cry.
-Miria apologizes to Clarice, she tells that her that she is just like them, she is truly a full fledge warrior. Miria tells Clarice to guard the Holy City Rabona with the troops and remind her a city is still a city without citizens living in it. Deneve tells Helen to remember to go apologize later on.
-Cid tells them that before the monster comes, feel free to use Rabona as they need and help themselves to the food.
-Cid tells Miria that the thing she ask him to do before, since only he went before so he could only bring back one or two, but now he had used the whole troops, they have gathered all of it together that were left inside the city. It is up to them whether they want to use it or not. (Not sure what Cid is referring to.)
-Chronos says that the Abyssal One (Cassandra) has started to accelerate her speed.

I added this to my first post on the first page.

Well, several members of the ghost are actually rather attractive, and I'd file both Yuma and Cynthia under cute.

Both Clare and Miria strike me as two of the better looking characters in the story.

[Mizuno]

Miria's attractive in her own way... >_> Could have done without the scar though.

The color page is actually part of the routine of the Claymore scanlation group. Most release contains a colored page of the chapter. It has been this way for some time now, which is really impressive considering the speed and the quality of the scanlation itself.

[potchip]

DBZ has arrived.

[ShiroiRyu]

Oh man...
That really look a badass final boss.
Priscilla began to move more and more !

[Ryus]

English scan is out...

[Yorae_paladin1]

Priscy is back

[Tempest35]

Y'know, while I'm glad for the lil 10-day fast forward, I do wonder what happened on that boat for ten days...

Probably just a huge Q&A session.

And the heck, the swords are getting skinner...

EDIT: Heh, Yagi, really? Fail on pages 13 and 16 - look at Miria's face...notice anything?

[Ryus]

^I don't notice anything . Oh wait that was your point Miria's scar is gone, yet again, but then back the next page... Yagi kinda did this in his last series Angel Densetsu too but to a far less degree. Personally I was hoping Tabitha would have healed it on the TEN day boat trip but nope...
