TM Chapter 29

Break Out (ブレイクアウト, Bureikuauto) is the forty-ninth chapter of the Trigun manga. It is also the twenty-ninth chapter of Trigun Maximum.

Summary
We're briefly shown Hoppered's past when he was a normal resident in July when he took care of a disabled woman.

Fast forward to the present, Hoppered and Midvalley plan on ambushing Vash. Unbeknownst to the two, Wolfwood is close by and plans on using his cross gun to foil their plans.

Vash finally makes it to Meryl's location and she tries to warn Vash that he's stepping into a trap. From the ceiling, Hoppered readied himself to dive-bomb onto Vash while Midvalley readied himself for his own. Wolf, however, closes in on the unsuspecting Midvalley. When the two launch their attack, Midvalley is struck with Milly's own attack diverting Midvalley's sonic waves. Hoppered manages though to crash into Vash's back, while Midvalley and Wolfwood, have each other in a stalemate.
