Wondering if anyone read this manga? I discovered it by chance and the story gets really interesting with each new chapter. There's currently 19 chapters translated and it's still ongoing in Japan with 4 volumes published.

I have to highlight the latest chapters

Spoiler for ch 14 and onwards:

With Tenka's execution (he had a death flag but I didn't expect him to die that way and so soon) and the evolution of the other 2 brothers after this development (Choutaru surprised me the most).
And the Orochi is still there so Tenka was killed for nothing.
