That isn't what your mother was hoping for!

Did your mother...

tell you to take revenge and kill people?

She didn't want you to take revenge!

What do you think? Isn't it beautiful?

Hey... look! So many people have gathered here!

For me... and for you.

Excuse me.

Good work, everyone!

Does anyone need water?

Does anyone need water?

Does nobody want to sing?

Eh?

Nobody?

I will.

Oh, Tokugawa.

Come, start!

People... fifteen years...

Right!

Kill him.

Do it in front of all the people.

Let everyone see that Hideyoshi has died...

And throw this world back into war.

And if you take advantage of the disturbances...

you will be the one...

who gets closest to the governmental power.

Dream... illusion's...

Give me your fan!

People... fifteen years...

People... fifteen years...

Someday I will stop all the fighting.

I will create a world with no fighting.

I'm dancing for the sake of that day.

I'll make you dance!

Dance!

I'm not searching for revenge, am I?

That's what I've said.

What happened?

This way!

Thank you.

Come!

I'm alive!

I can't go.

Please go, Goemon.

That shinobi...

He's still alive.

Please go.

Please go!

Wait!

Don't kill him!

Spit out the name of... your employer!

If you want to save the life of your family,

you'd better not open your mouth!

How dare you doing that to Hideyoshi!

Understood?

It seems they've brought him to Sonezaki.

Master...

Please stop this.

I'm sure, even Saizou was prepared for this.

Tell us your name, OK?

Spit it out!

If you try to save him there...

You'll get in real trouble.

Think of it as God's will...

Do you really understand that?

Yes.

I understand!

So we meet again, right?

Don't kill me.

What?

He escaped?

Bring him back, no matter what it takes!

I think you understand,...

that I've just let you live.

We're in trouble, master!

What, have they found us?

No.

They're heading to...

Saizou's house.

What's the problem?

That's what I've meant!

When I said that you'd get in trouble!

Okichi!

Okichi!

Saizou...

Look!

This is the freedom you were speaking of!

This is the price of your freedom!

If you want to save your child's life, come to the castle!

Please step aside. Please step aside.

What?

So? Do you want to tell me your name at last?

If you do so, I will at least...

spare that child's life.

Hey, Saizou!

Please step aside! Hey!

Hey!

My name is...

My name is...

Goemon!

Goemon?

Yes!

I'm...

the great master thief...

Ishikawa Goemon!

Stop it!

I've done many terrible things up to now...

I've lived an interesting and amusing life.

But I ran out of luck when I tried to...

slaughter Taiko Hideyoshi and make history that way.

I'm Goemon.

I'm Ishikawa Goemon!

But...

Nice to see that so many of you have gathered here.

What a superb view!

You!

You want to know why I had tried to

slaughter Taiko Hideyoshi?

You wanna know, right?

Just look at this world.

Didn't it get out of order?

One after another appeared...

Obsessed with the idea of obtaining the governmental power.

They killed each other and shed blood.

But everyone was just babbling the same thing...

They just kept saying that it was the last time.

But they haven't kept this promise just once, have they?!

How is it?

Stop it Saizou.

And whose blood was shed the most?

It was your blood, right?

Yes! Yes!

That's enough, Saizou!

Please burn me in front of all these people!

Stop it!

This is Ishikawa Goemon's final drama!

Hm, you're feeling lonesome, don't you?

How many times did I tell you...

to stop?

I've told you countless times that you'll get in trouble!

I...

I cannot follow you any longer.

Mitsunari.

Yes.

That shinobi...

He told me, his name was Saizou.

He was your shinobi, right?

Hey... Who are you?

You must... be confusing something.

I don't know him.

Have you come, Goemon?

Please don't try to look cool all alone.

You're not the only one who's sad that we've lost Saizou.

Please leave this to us and go ahead.

Understood.

Don't die!

Have you started to move, Goemon?

So... will it be Chacha who kills Hideyoshi

or will it be someone else?

Did you really think that I would believe that

you'd become my concubine willingly?

Did you?

How could you do this to Nobunaga...

Right.

I still have a score to settle with you!

The same techniques won't work on me this time!

So that jointly sealed covenant did still exist?

So Akechi Mitsuhide was cautious?

But...

What do you try to achieve by killing me?

Do you want to throw this world back into war?

You can't stop the fighting.

Nothing will change, no matter how much time might pass.

So you've finally come, huh?

Long time no see.

Sorry to make you wait.

I've come from hell to pick you up.

What do you think? Shall we...

have a drink before that?

What a nice view...

Right...

That's the reason why I let it build here.

How was it...

How was that governmental power?

Quite good.

But not as good as this sake.

Why did you kill Nobunaga?

You were his best vassal...

I was hungry.

As you already know, I was born as a peasant.

Since I was a child...

I was so hungry that I couldn't stand it any longer.

I wanted to fill my stomach just once.

In order to do that...

I even desperately endured Nobunaga's unreasonable demands...

I've worked hard... and succeeded.

But, you know...

now matter how much I ate, I couldn't get enough.

My stomach was always empty...

I was so hungry that I couldn't stand it any longer.

So, in the end...

I've tried to eat the governmental power.

That's all.

Is there anything left you want to say?

How did it feel? That thing you've called freedom?

Fifteen years ago you've run away.

To find that thing called freedom...

You've run away from your own destiny.

And? Have you found it?

Have you become free?

Come.

Kill me.

I won't run away anymore!

From my destiny.

Has Mitsunari already raised the army?

Is this going to be a war?

No...

Just a contest.

About the feed called governmental power...

We've got an important announcement!

This jointly sealed covenant shows clearly,

that our Tokugawa Ieyasu...

is the legitimate successor of Nobunaga.

After Taiko Hideyoshi had died...

who else than Ieyasu should...

rule this country?!

I leave the rest to you!

Do you want to avenge your friend?

Or is it your loyalty to a patron?

They don't want that to happen.

Take this...

and please...

please come back, no matter what!

Sortie!

Force them back!

You're having something really dangerous there.

I'll go with you!

Hey...

Do you know this story?

There once was a woman who opened a box that

mustn't be opened out of curiosity.

What do you mean?

Inside of the box were various calamities.

Incurable diseases, war, hatred...

They all jumped out of it and made

many people suffer.

But there was one thing the woman didn't let out of it.

Because of that, the people weren't

annihilated and could live on.

Do you know what that was?

What?

It's something that I didn't have.
