The Black Bulls need backup and Lucifero's regeneration and increased gravity attack are only making it difficult for the heroes to continue. The latest spoilers, leaks, and raw scans of "Black Clover" Chapter 316 are expected to arrive this Thursday.

The final panel of the last chapter teases Asta taking on Lucifero as the former draws the Demon-Slasher Katana. He is ready to battle against Lucifero and provide the much-needed support to his comrades from the Black Bulls.

In the previous chapter, titled "Ultra Giant Showdown," the Ultra Giant Bull punched right through Lucifero who appeared in his monstrous form. The Black Bulls were delighted as they cheered from the Bull's cockpit.

Meanwhile, Luck stated that he sensed the location of the coffins holding William Vangeance and Yami Sukehiro. The base's hand transformed and attacked the monster.

Elsewhere, Nacht, who was in his Unite Mode Equus, noted that Lucifero fused his body with the Tree of Qliphoth and had been using it as a vessel.

He figured Yami and William must be the core of the vessel, but he wasn't able to completely manifest yet. Nacht observed that if the Black Bulls are able to rescue Yami and William, they will be able to shut down the monster.

However, Nacht was shocked that Lucifer's monster form was incomplete yet he was able to use such vast magic. He confessed that no matter how much they absorbed, the magic continued to overflow making it difficult for them to catch up.

Even after using Rogue's power, they were barely able to protect the central area. Elsewhere, at the castle's gate, the members of the Resistance Force were getting impatient because they could not fight the battle against the devil.

The battle between Lucifero and the Ultra Giant Bull continued as the latter launched a Mana Corkscrew to the former's face. The attack was followed by several beams that tore apart Lucifero.

Unfortunately, Lucifero was able to regenerate and use more gravity to crush the base of the bull.

"Black Clover" Chapter 316 is scheduled for release this Sunday. Fans will be able to read the latest chapter online for free on Viz and Manga Plus. The physical copy of the chapter will hit the stands Monday.
