Kingdom Chapter 780 spoilers: What will happen?
According to spoilers leaked on Reddit, we’re going to uncover more about Ri Boku’s true motivations. With Ri Shin, not Akou, revealed to be Ri Boku’s principal aim. Which makes sense, as based on their history together, Ri Boku foresaw that Ri Shin would become one of the most dangerous and unpredictable characters in the war.
Given Shin’s previous experience with Ri Boku’s men, the spoilers reveal that we can expect him to inflict some kind of damage on his army, while skillfully avoiding the ambush. And, a battle between Shin and Futei or Kaine is also predicted for this chapter. But will Shin kill Futei? After successfully navigating Ri Boku’s trap, it’s believed that it’ll be only a matter of time before he inflicts some kind of devastating blow to his enemies.
Kingdom Chapter 779 recap
While you wait for Chapter 780, in the previous chapter we saw the Qin army celebrate their triumph over Zhao’s forces, as Shin’s remarkable battle feats propel him to the rank of general. And as the war continues, we saw Ousen steer his army towards Khutan (the city at the heart of Zhao).

However, Zhao also made some moves. Toujou, Zhao’s ruler, decided to imprison Riboku under accusations of treason. But Riboku remains as composed and resolute as always, asserting that Toujou’s authoritarian rule weakened Zhao, leaving it vulnerable to the Qin army invasion.
Further clues about the Qin army’s plans to eliminate Kantan also emerged, with this chapter laying the groundwork for what’s to come in the ongoing conflict between the two clans.
