Spoilers for chapter 85 have already been released, and in it we can follow the climax of the fight between Chihiro and Samura . So, it seems that with Iori and the Masumi group appearing, Samura is leaning towards changing his mind!
First of all, it's important to summarize the last chapter! There, we see that Samura even considers the possibility of breaking the swords, but he is determined and doesn't want a boy to take on such a heavy burden!

Furthermore, we see that our hero's Enten can copy the abilities of other swords! With this, Chihiro manages to buy time with Masumi, who is the Samurai's natural enemy. In the end, Chihiro actually manages to crack Tobimune.

Now, judging by the image spoilers, we can see that the first thing Samura does is get Iori and the Masumi out of there with his sword. Meanwhile, the fight continues, and we see glimpses of Samura's thoughts!

The fact is that he's afraid of a future with his daughter and doesn't feel worthy of it all. Towards the end, we see that Iori seems to catch up with her father, and he'll probably give up on his plan.
