Yasutomi suggested an idea she accepted.

At this time, the vassal Tada Soji,

dispatched by the Nagaoka clan,

was staying at his house

and was Yasutomi's last hope.

He told him his secret.

It was his only chance.

I'm expecting you

to attack Fujiko's palanquin.

You will kidnap Fujiko.

You will ger het pregnant.

Yasutomi hoped that

lord lida would eventually

come back on his decision.

And feel pity for Fujiko

if he learned she had given birth to a baby.

Everything happened as Yasutomi wanted.

Fujiko and Tada, who lived hidden,

finally got a child after a year.

They were happy.

Their happiness only lasted for a year.

But for your mother,

this year was enough

to give a

life worth of love.

Unfortunately,

it didn't cool lord lida's anger down.

Wakayama was a bad woman.

But lord lida loved her madly.

His hatred towards Fujiko

was as strong as...

his love for his concubine Wakayama.

Poor Fujiko

was sentenced to death.

But no vassal was willing

to execute their lord's verdict.

Tada Soji

finally volunteered.

Father!

Fujiko...

was happy to die

by the hand of her lover.

Father!

Then Yasutomi confided you to

our Lord safekeeping.

Father!

And our Lord asked me

to raise you as my own son.

Father!

Shingo!

Let Shingo go.

Don't chase him.

Sad is his destiny.

Nagaoka

Shingo!

Father!

I left this world.

You must be miserable.

- No.

- Why?

I'm with her.

With your mother.

We're living together.

Fujiko, Shingo is here.

Shingo came to see us.

I killed your mother.

I brought her body here

to bury her.

I never had another wife.

People think I'm sad.

But they're wrong.

When I close my eyes,

I can feel Fujiko's sweet warmth.

This beautiful woman

always watch over me.

She's alive.

I'm living with her.

We're living together.

One day I'll join her in her grave.

This day, I'll really be able to live.

Just thinking about it

warms me up.

Father...

So you're happy.

I am.

Father...

My son, where do you intend to go?

Where will I go?

Farewell, father!

Please forgive us for such

an unexpected visit.

We need you.

Open the door.

What's the matter?

I'm...

Tadokoro Mondo from Kofu clan.

Our father was condemned.

But we have the proof

he was innnocent.

We ran away

after having killed the magistrate

who deceived our father.

The clan is on our tail

to smother the matter.

I'll try a diversion

for at least my sister to survive.

I'm asking you to hide her.

Please forgive this rash request.

I'll do it.

I'll never forget you.

My sister.

Go!

Thank you!

Come.

Tadokoro Mondo, get out!

I'm here. I'm not hiding!

- Get out!

- As you wish.

- Where is your sister?

- Not here.

You're lying.

- Are you going to kill a woman?

- Shut up!

She stabbed the magistrate.

Don't move. It's too late.

My brother!

I promised to protect you.

Let go of me! My brother...

Do you want to die?

My brother! They're gonna kill him!

No!

What are you doing?

Mondo, run!

Sister!

You must live!

Mondo, go away!

Kill her!

Shame on you!

Edo

Chiba's training room

Your thrust is unstoppable.

I give up.

Put your talent

to a clan's service.

I can recommend you to one.

What do you think?

I left this world.

I don't want to serve anyone anymore.

No, you're still well alive.

Your sword is alive.

You must live with your art.

It went astray.

I know.

Why did you pick my dojo?

To find someone stronger than me.

Someone who would kill me,

me and my sword.

I could have killed you.

But without parrying your thrust.

Yes, you would have died.

You can regain uprightness.

I'd like to...

The Shogun's councellor Matsudaira

is looking for a reliable man.

Go see him.

I'm Matsudaira.

Takakura Shingo.

Master Chiba recommanded you.

Do you want to serve me?

Thank you.

Are you married?

You're living alone?

Why?

I don't want a wife.

You must start a home and family

now that you have a master.

I will never marry.

By loyalty to someone?

Yes. To three women, even.

Three?

They're all dead.

There's my mother.

There's my sister.

And there's...

Year 1 of Bunkyo era

(1861)

Activist patriots of Mito clan

are attacking the British consulate

At this moment,

a great confusion

is prevailing within Mito clan.

Since the death of their suzerain Nariaki,

the struggle for power

between extremists and moderates

developped in a way

that's worrying the Shogun.

Even if Mito is a clan

from the Shogun's family,

he can't support such schemes.

He sent me to Mito as a mediator.

Within the hour!

I'm throwing myself into the lion's jaws.

I may not come back out of this alive.

Sir Matsudaira,

we have to take your life!

Don't worry.

Wait for me there.

Mito

What an incredible coolness!

How long have you been at my service?

It's been three years.

Time goes by so fast!

Three years already?

Each day, it's a pleasure to serve you.

Those words go right to the bottom of my heart.

Thank you.

We hire people

and pay them for their service.

What a sad relationship!

Yes.

I had a son of your age.

If he was still alive...

Me too, I had a father of your age.

If he was still alive...

Really?

I didn't know.

Mito is a quiet place.

Appearances can be deceiving.

The bottom of those lakes

is stirred by violent swirls.

We've been appointed to this

charming house,

but even our slightest moves

are being watched by hundreds of eyes.

It's a very quiet prison.

I can bear such a pleasant prison

without problem.

Tomorrow we're expected at Mito's castle.

It's time for me to act.

For a start,

I'll speak to consul Okitsu Shinzaemon.

Your laissez-faire policy towards the extremists

shows that you're supporting

their movement against the Shogun.

You didn't even arrest the rebels

who attacked the British consulate.

If you don't take any

emergency action in this unrest,

I'll have to refer to the Shogun personally.

Takakura Shingo.

How we meet again!

Shoji Kahei!

You defeated me at the tournament.

I want my revenge.

I accept another duel.

- One versus one?

- Of course.

Or versus all of you?

Did you leave the Komoro clan

to become a Shogun's guard dog?

I'm protecting Matsudaira

against Mito's infamous rebels.

You talk too much!

To the river!

And your famous thrust?

No need to use it against you.

- I want it.

- No.

I'll parry it.

I'll defeat you fairly.

Come closer!

Today I'm going to meet

an important man from Mito clan.

Takeda Shui, the 1 st counsellor.

Our affair might be settled

by tonight with him.

My mission will be accomplished

and we'll go back to Edo

tomorrow morning.

I'm pleased to hear

everything went alright.

It wouldn't have been possible without you.

Thank you.

Don't.

What are your plans

once we'll be back to Edo?

Me?

Do you want to remain at my service?

I see what you mean.

I'll be at your service

for as long as you wish.

Settle in Edo

and find yourself a wife.

I'm used to live alone.

What would you think of marrying my daughter?
