The Sakamoto Days manga has been running in the pages of Weekly Shonen Jump since November 2020. VIZ Media publishes the manga in English and describes the story like so:

Sakamoto Days Plot
Time has passed peacefully for Sakamoto since he left the underworld. He’s running a neighborhood store with his lovely wife and child and has gotten a bit…out of shape. But one day a figure from his past pays him a visit with an offer he can’t refuse: return to the assassin world or die!
