Chapter 40

No pain, no gain is the fortieth chapter of the Tokyo卍Revengers (Manga).

Summary
Sitting in his classroom, Takemichi thinks about his task, along with Mikey's threat. Akkun, Yamagishi, Makoto, and Takuya walk in, congratulating Takemichi on becoming an official member of Toman. Takemichi tells his friends that being in Toman is not as good as it seems, and informs them of his promise with Mikey, admitting that he has limited knowledge about the conflict between Toman and Valhalla.

Yamagishi explains the structure of Toman, which is composed of around a hundred members, divided into five divisions. Because Pah-chin got arrested, Peh-yan is now in the Second Division, much to Takemichi's chagrin, as he is scared of him. To replace Pah-chin as Third Division Captain, Kisaki, a former member of Moebius, was appointed. Furthermore, Yamagishi says that there was a split in Moebius between those led by Osanai, who were born in 1988, and those led by Kisaki, who were born in 1990. Since Mikey sucessfully defeated Osanai, Moebius disbanded, with Kisaki's group joining Toman, increasing the number of members to 150 and leaving Kisaki's Third Division as Toman's largest division.

Makoto asks what happened to the rest of the Moebius members, those born in 1988-89, and Yamagishi explains that they have joined Valhalla, serving as an anti-Toman force, under the acting leadership of Hanma. Valhalla currently has 300 members, but no one knows who the "true" leader of Valhalla is, represented by a headless angel.

Takemichi decides that he has no choice but to meet Baji in order to bring him back to Toman, but is unsure how. Yamagishi continues to explain the structure of Valhalla. Just as he explains that the anti-Toman force is gathered under Valhalla's number 3 guy, Kazutora, Kazutora walks into the classroom himself, as he has been looking for Takemichi.

Kazutora, who is a grade above Takemichi, appears thrilled to see him, planning to bring him to Valhalla's hideout. In the hallway, they encounter two other members, both on crutches. Kazutora explains that they are his most trusted subordinates, and that he is the reason as to why they are on crutches, which horrifies Takemichi. Kazutora tells Takemichi to relax, as he will be introduced to everyone, and Takemichi wonders if that includes Baji.
