TOEI COMPANY LTD.

OGATA CASTLE, OMI PROVINCE

My lord...

Is anyone around?

What is going on?

We have a crisis!

We are under attack by traitors!

What? Traitors?

They have banded with ninja

to overtake the Ogata clan.

Who is behind it?

The leader is...

Me, Yuuki Daijo!

Ogata Samanosuke, you

shall die by my hands!

Save Ikazuchimaru!

Kuya!

Kuya...

My lord!

How did it go?

I have killed everyone

who has stood in our way.

This castle has fallen.

Ikazuchimaru...

Kill Ogata's son to avoid future problems.

Don't show any mercy to the young child.

I won't.

Ikazuchimaru is missing!

He has escaped!

I won't let him get away.

That despicable Yuuki Daijo!

I shall protect Ikazuchimaru...

and return to get my revenge for the lord.

The burning castle looks pretty.

Young lord!

What is that?

Ikazuchimaru, it's my defeat.

Pardon me.

I have raised you for 14 years.

There is nothing more I can teach you.

I owe it all to you.

Would you like to decend the mountains?

I do not want to leave your side.

You are kind.

If he is a shadow of the night...

then you are the light of the day.

Who are you talking about?

My former pupil.

Do I have a senior?

Where is he now?

The villagers might come

up to pick herbs tomorrow.

Just be prepared.

Very well.

He has been persistently

watching me for the past few days,

but that should take care of him.

Are you thieves?

I have nothing valuable on me!

You have one thing!

What is that?

Your one and only life Ikazuchimaru!

I'm shocked that you know my name!

Which means, you won't let me off easily!

You will die here!

Aren't you going to give up?

How pesky!

Take this! One more time!

He wasn't much.

Why did you come after my life?

Tell me!

So he bit his tongue.

You are a woman.

I'm no one suspicious.

I saw what happened when

I was passing by so I

got scared and ran away.

Sorry about that.

But, what are you doing

in this desolate place?

I'm looking for my long-lost father.

I heard he used to live

here in Gamagatake before.

So I thought I might

be able to find a lead here.

You are here to see your father?

Yes.

What is his name?

I don't know what he

looks like or his name.

This amulet is the only

clue that I have on him.

I haven't heard of anyone living here.

I know!

My teacher might know something.

Who is your teacher?

He is called Gama Dojin.

He is a bit too old to be your father.

But he has been living

in Gamagatake for decades.

Please let me see him.

I'm sure he will help you.

I'm Ikazuchimaru, his pupil.

I'm Tsunade.

Didn't that hurt?

No.

I'm sorry.

My teacher lives beyond that valley.

Why did you come back here?

I came to see how you,

my great benefactor, are doing.

There isn't a day I haven't

worried about you.

Please forgive me for staying

out of touch for so long.

If you had such sincerity in you...

You wouldn't have deceived

me and stolen the Shoryu scroll.

I'm not as blind as to

see what you are after.

I don't believe my ears!

I have no ulterior motive.

Hearing that Ogata's son

have matured into a man...

you have shamelessly come back!

On what grounds do you say that?

The proof is...

the scar on your forehead.

I know what you want!

Since you have seen through me...

I won't hide it.

My men should have killed him by now.

I'm going to take your life.

Fool!

I give up.

I won't put up a fight.

As evil as you are, you

are my former pupil.

I do not want to kill you.

Take your own life!

Teacher...

I won't hear of any excuses.

I have nothing to say

in my defense at this point.

Just...

What is it?

I want to return the Shoryu

scroll that I stole from you.

That is admirable of you.

Please verify it.

This is indeed the scroll!

I won't lose it again!

That's right...

No matter what happens...

Orochimaru...?

You are doomed!

Die!

You tricked me!

You are helpless, after being

bitten by a poisonous snake!

You have outlived your time!

Ikazuchimaru...

Teacher!

I ran into some trouble along the way.

I will prepare dinner right away.

Blood!

Teacher!

What happened?

Who did this?

Please bring some water.

Teacher...

I am going to die.

Please brace yourself.

I do everything I can to save you.

It's useless.

Let me certify you while I am still alive.

Sit me up.

Thank you.

Look in the right eye of the great statue.

It contains the transformation technique.

Here, take it.

Regarding your identity...

Yes?

You are the son of Ogata,

the guardian of Omi.

Your father and mother

were killed by Yuuki Daijo,

a vassal of the Ogata family.

My father and mother...?

I was planning to tell you this later,

and go with you to Omi to help you.

But this had to happen...

Teacher, why are you so kind to me?

Because my former pupil

named Orochimaru...

had lent a hand to Yuuki

Daijo's evil conspiracy.

What's frightening is...

Daijo had sent Orochimaru to kill me.

Teacher, did my senior do this to you?

Get revenge on Yuuki Daijo!

I shall get revenge for

you and kill Orochimaru!

Orochimaru is a frightening man.

Be on your guard with him.

Yes, I will.

Teacher!

Use this.

You are...

Teacher!

Dojin!

Teacher...

Teacher, I'm going to Omi.

I will get revenge for you and my parents.

Ikazuchimaru...

Tsunade...

Now you have no lead on your father.

It's all right.

Are you going now?

We have met by some strange fate.

I doubt we will see each other again.

But...

What is it?

I will never forget you.

I pray that you will find your father.

I will be going now.

Please be careful.

Ikazuchimaru...

So the old man's passed away.

Grandmother!

He was an old friend of mine.

There goes another talking companion.

Dojin was killed by someone...

Is that right?

The poor man...

Tsunade, have you found your father?

No.

Will you forget about him?

Your mother was my only daughter.

He left your mother and

abandoned you as an infant.

And you still want to see

your coldhearted father?

Yes, I want to see him.

I want to inform him

of my mother's death.

You may or may not

be happy after seeing him...

Yet you want to see him.

I guess I can't stop you.

Go and see him.

Do you know where my father is?

He came from Omi.

That's your lead.

Omi Province?

Go and see for yourself as

to what kind of man he is.

I won't stop you.

But if you get hurt after seeing him...

Be sure to come back to me.

Yes, Grandmother.

You will be traveling alone

to an unfamiliar place.

Tsunade, let me give you something.

What is it?

Take this with you.

In time of danger...

This spider ornament will protect you.

But it will only work once.

Grandmother...

Good girl.
