Welcome to Sugar Park! is the seventh chapter of Sakamoto Days and part of the Amusement Park Arc. A family trip to the theme park turns into a quiet gauntlet as two assassins test whether the retired Taro Sakamoto is really the legend they have heard about, with Shin stepping in to guard the day.
Summary
A family outing to Sugar Park frames this chapter, with Taro Sakamoto quietly uneasy about the bounty that has recently made him a target while his wife Aoi and daughter Hana enjoy the rides unaware. Shin and Lu Shaotang tag along as hidden protection, hoping to keep the day uneventful. Shin confirms the surroundings are clear for the moment and explains the reach of his telepathy: he can pick up the thoughts of anyone within roughly twenty meters, and would-be killers stand out because their emotions run high, though the ability works like tuning a radio and demands focus to catch a signal.
His scan soon flags an approaching threat, and he passes the warning to Sakamoto. The assassin Kurii Ningu strikes while assuming his mark is oblivious, but Sakamoto, without even turning toward him, plucks a pen from Kurii's own pocket and drives it into his chest, dropping him almost instantly. Watching Sakamoto neutralize the attacker without inflicting a fatal wound leaves Shin and Lu impressed.
Key Events
A second killer, Tatsu, sizes up the unconscious Kurii and openly doubts that this ordinary-seeming man is truly the fabled assassin. Wary of Shin's mind-reading, he grows curious about how the boy would fare against an opponent whose head holds nothing to read, and he sets up a test. Tatsu trails Shin and Lu onto a roller coaster, and once the harnesses lock, Lu notices the stranger seated ahead of them. Shin senses the danger too late, since Tatsu has already fired a shot that shatters Sakamoto's glasses. As the ride nears its loop, Shin frees himself from his restraint, leaps onto Tatsu, and drags him from his seat, the two of them tumbling onto the track. Shin declares that since Sakamoto is off duty for the day, this fight belongs to him.
