Sword of the Mountain Tribes is the 508th chapter of the Kingdom manga.
Summary[]
Before the Breach[]
Bajio and his unit are at the foothold that was created by Sou Jin. When the Zhao try to attack them, Bajio enlarges the foothold with an aggressive counterattack. His men are also fierce fighters and push the Zhao back. The mountain people reach the stairs and rush down while breaking any kind of resistance and create a footing on the ground. Some warriors of the Bajio Tribe search for the gate control room. When they find the hidden door, they seize control of the gate and open it.
When Shin and Ten see how Bajio sweeps through the wall while decimating the Zhao and his men are descending in order to open the gate, they leave their place next to the mountain king and go to their men to prepare for the upcoming battle.
