Reincarnation 256

Reincarnation 256: High Spirits and Fate (大精霊と運めと) is the 256th chapter of the Shaman King manga.

Short Summary
Despite Tao Ren's resolve to fight with killing intent, Asakura Yoh claims that he and his teammates have survived the attacks because there is the smallest doubt in Team "The Ren"'s hearts. However, Ren questions if Yoh is another Elemental Warrior. Johann Faust VIII heals Yoh, who then attacks Ren, but Usui Horokeu blocks it and continues the fight.

Meanwhile, Goldva and the Patch Officiants discuss the tournament and the Five Grand Elemental Spirits. Namari points out that Gandhara is still plotting to steal the spirits.
