Chapter 19

Eye of Invisibility (不可視の隻眼, Fukashi no Sekigan) is the nineteenth chapter of the Trigun manga.

Summary
The names of the Gung-Ho-Guns are announced and Legato notes that Chapel isn’t there. Back on the bus, Vash describes to Wolfwood Legato’s appearance. The insurance girls but in on the conversation and note they have no clue who Legato is, even though, they were there when he was. Disconcerted by this fact, Vash fathoms that them having no recollection of Legato is a part of his plan.

Arriving at their destination of Jeneora Rock, Wolfwood parts ways with Vash and the group. Noting the queer and ominous silence that surrounds the city, Vash dashes to an open shudder that a woman tries to close. Vash beseeches the lady to answer if the man responsible was someone that fitted Legato’s description. The woman then closes the shutter on one of Vash fingers. Noticing a large pool of blood on the outskirts of the town, Vash deduces that Legato is there. At that moment, a woman appears before Vash and claims that she could have killed him 3 times by then. 3 buttons then fall off of Vash’s coat and the woman introduces herself as the 3rd Gung-Ho-Gun, Dominique the Cyclops. The backstory to the pool of blood is elaborated on by Dominique, which infuriates Vash. However, he then notes that he could have groped her 5 times by then as her shirt becomes unbuttoned.

Vash then demands to have an audience with Legato, to which, Dominique agrees to if he manages to take her half of the coin from her. Dominique, though, is confident that she’ll win and apparently teleports in back of Vash firing behind him. Regaining his composure, Vash tries to aim at Dominique, but she effortlessly dodges.

Elsewhere, Wolfwood hears gun shots, but pays no mind to them. Upon entering the town church he’s ambushed by a trio of masked assailants.

Back to the fight between Vash and Dominique, Vash is caught in an embarrassing position. Dominique comments how predictable Vash is the kind she doesn’t like and Vash agrees that Dominique is the same to him. Focusing his attention on a single feeling, Vash manages to finally land a hit on Dominique on her eye patch.
