How is the kills value being changed? Is it on the client or server.

Maybe add some prints around to check the data when its being saved, and when its being loaded. If any of those show 0, then its not getting the data correctly.
For example,

local DataStoreService = game:GetService(“DataStoreService”)
local DataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore(“DataStore”)
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Plr)

local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder", Plr)
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"

local Kills = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
Kills.Name = "Kills"

local data
local success, errormsg = pcall(function()
data = DataStore:GetAsync(Plr.UserId)
print(data)
end)
if success then
	print(data)
	Kills.Value = data
	print("Worked")
else
	print("Error loading data")
	warn(errormsg)
end
end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Plr)

local success, errormsg = pcall(function()
	print(Plr.leaderstats.Kills.Value)
	DataStore:SetAsync(Plr.UserId, Plr.leaderstats.Kills.Value)
end)
if success then
	print("Saved Data")
else
	print("error")
	warn(errormsg)
end
end)
