Wind Breaker chapter 160 recap

Wind Breaker chapter 160, titled Melting Snow, commenced with Tomiyama and Togame approaching Sakura. As both appreciated Sakura's efforts in saving Bofurin from the recent calamity, officials from Ropponichiza and Gravel approached Tomiyama, hoping to meet the leader of Shishitoren.
As these three exchanged greetings, Nirei showed his surprise over how the three gangs, which could have been their enemies, were now fast friends with Bofurin. The chapter shifted to the other side of the celebratory party, where Kouta and Hiiragi stood awkwardly next to each other, as both expected the other one to break the ice.

Kouta decided to break the ice by offering Hiiragi a drink as he was going to fetch one for himself. Hiiragi was surprised by Kouta's formal behavior and started thinking of the past when the latter snapped over trivial issues. Kouta started laughing after witnessing Hiiragi's thinking face. He then revealed that after the defeat against Furin, he was about to leave Shishitoren.
After their defeat by Furin, the entire Shishitoren gang broke, and everyone started fighting over small issues. However, with the insistence of some young members, the gang stayed together, and Kouta also found a home in Shishitoren. Kouta then continued with his apology and stated that his grudge against Hiiragi was completely personal.
What can we expect from Wind Breaker chapter 161? (Speculative)

The title of Wind Breaker chapter 161 is yet to be revealed. After focusing on the headliners like Umemiya of Bofurin and Tomiyama of Shishitoren, the next chapter might finally focus on the underdogs, the first years of Bofurin.
Although they weren't actively involved in battles and were present on the sidelines, the victory wasn't possible without their input. So, Wind Breaker chapter 161 might see them getting the credit they deserve.
