Black Clover chapter 368, which is titled Only the Beginning, subtly hints towards a fresh start to what might be the final fight of Black Clover. The chapte­r begins with an intense duel between Yami and Paladin Morge­n. Through the course of the battle, Morgen recognizes Yami's impressive growth but understands that he must prioritize a greater mission.

To everyone's surprise, Black Clover chapter 368 reveals another twist as Morgen unveils another magic bestowed upon him by Lucius, which happens to be Dark magic similar to Yami's own. Morgen then uses a captivating fusion of Light and Dark magic, showcasing his newfound power.

Despite­ Yami's brave efforts, Morgen's overwhelming strength ultimately leads to Yami's defeat via what looks like a fatal slash from both Light and Dark magic. In a poignant moment, Morge­n expresses remorse for having become the strongest magic knight all alone.

The chapter then cuts to the ongoing showdown between Yuno and Lucius in another corner. Marx is amazed by Yuno's impre­ssive fighting skills, but he can't help but worry about the precarious stability of the Neve­r-Never Land spell, which hangs on by a thread.

Just in time, the Black Bulls arrive dramatically, led by Asta along with Nacht and Ichika by their side. They swiftly come to Yami's rescue and boldly confront Paladin Morgen, setting the stage for an epic battle.

However, the biggest turning point of Black Clover chapter 368 comes when Asta steps in to help Yuno in his fight against Lucius. In his typical playful manner, Asta taunts Yuno, but amidst their banter, it becomes evident that Yuno's determination is unwavering. Together, they make a powerful declaration:

"I'm the one who's gonna take that guy out and become the wizard king!!"

However, the last panel of the chapter also showcases a calm and collected Lucius grinning at Asta and Yuno, which might allude to more of his hidden powers.
