Who are you?

Kiba...

Okaminosuke.

Kiba?

Kiba (teeth).

Like these.

Hey you!

Are you trying to interrupt the

Kazama Dojo's fighting practice?

It's a weird practice

also your skills are very soft.

Like this persimmon.

What?!

Are you trying to find fault

with our fighting style?

Isn't your style already faulty?

Damn you!

It's okay now.

You go home now!

But you can't go like that.

Okay, you go home!

Hey, stop it!

I'm glad!

Is she crazy?

- Kiba Okaminosuke?

He's a rogue!

Anyway, I wanted to report to you.

What fighting style

did he use?

I'm not sure,

but it was lai-Giri (Quick-draw).

He was very skillful!

Stand up!

- Huh?

Stand up, Gunbei!

- Sensei!

Draw your sword.

Attack me the

way he used lai-Giri!

Come on!

Did you understand?

The Kazama dojo teachings

will beat any lai-Giri.

Kiba,

I, Ikkaku will kill you!

We're going to take a break here.

- Yes.

- Hey, let's take a break!

Wait!

You can't drink that water!

Who are you?

You are irresponsible!

If you think I am lying,

you better try that first.

- He is right!

This water is from Mount Higasa

and it's contaminated with poison.

The farmers who lived around

here left because of that.

Hey, please give me water!

I don't care if it's contaminated or not,

because I am going to be a

sun-dried human body soon!

Shut up!

What are you complaining about?

My body is going to crack open very soon!

It's one of the punishments for you!

When you get thirsty,

you better think about what you've done!

Didn't your policy say that one

must respect even a bad wolf?

What's that?

Hey hey hey, who gave you permission?

Don't get so uptight and have one!

Hey, Karubei!

What's your name?

Kiba Okaminosuke.

I am the thief, "Black cat"

who broke into the house of a Samurai.

I am not just a petty thief

but big time.

Didn't you ever hear my name before?

No, I didn't.

Would you like to have some?

You have a weird name,

but you're considerate.

He so resembles him...

During his lifetime, my father

made his living by 'Dojo Yaburi'

(Raiding Dojos and beating them all up for money)

INN:

I was always hungry.

Hey hey, how long were you following us?

If you don't stop following us,

you will be arrested too.

Officer,

what did that ronin do?

This is very sweet!

You really don't know?

He is Kawazu Magobei who went after

a Shogunate official,

Mishina Mondo-san.

And killed him.

Mount Higasayama's gold mine

was closed down a year ago.

Mishina-sama was patrolling there

when Magobei killed him.

What for?

I think he killed him because

he just didn't like an officer.

Hey! Are you Takada-sama

who came from the castle town?

That's right.

I came from Nishida village over there

and the officers escorting

criminals were poisoned by bad water...

Bad water?

- Yes.

They must get to the administration

office in Arakawa by end of the day.

We know this is too much to ask of you,

but the chief who is very

sick hopes that you'll

let us join your group, Takada-sama.

Do you have the letter?

Oh, that woman is Oni-Azami Oren.

She had an affair with the

Magistrate of Nishida Town.

But in the end, she was dumped.

Her revenge was to kill him

and burn down his house.

Let's go!

Hey, can't you move more smoothly!

It'll be smooth at the office.

But after that, we don't know...

- Then, we'll all be crucified,

isn't that what you mean?

But can you bring us there safely?

Shut your stupid mouth!

Magobei, this is your final journey.

Look! Someone came to say good-bye.

Hello!

We're from Arakawa

to take over the escort.

Let's check their identities.

- Thanks.

Be my guest.

You're breaking our promise!

It doesn't make any difference if you

die here or if you're crucified in Edo.

Die now!

- You swine!

Even a child can kill

a man who is caged and helpless.

Withdraw!

Magobei, who were they?

I don't know.

- What?

There must be a reason

they wanted to kill you.

Tell me!

Stop it!

He told you that he

doesn't know, didn't he?

Anyway, if you don't move,

they'll come back again.

Kiba-san

can you escort them

to the administrator's office in Arakawa?

I will pay you.

How much?

How about 2 ryo?

Very well!

Please,

let me talk to him in private.

I want you to tell me

about your secret.

If I don't know who wants

to kill you, I can't protect you.

I was betrayed.

A man named Higasa Jinroku used me.

Higasa Jinroku?

He's hiding on Mt. Higasa.

He and his crews were digging

the secret gold mine,

I happened to be passing by

one day, and he used me

to kill the officer patrolling the mine.

And he promised to

keep me from getting in trouble.

Idiots!

We have so many,

but nobody can kill just one man?

It was waste to hire

the officers to spring a trap!

The reason he agreed

to kill the officer for you

was that he just wanted the gold.

If we don't kill that man,

the gold mine will be found...

- Father!

Father!

- Oteru!

Who did this to you?

- I did it.

Oteru was out of control.

She went out today and came back

in only her underwear...

- Moron!

He always screams at us,

but not Oteru, she's spoiled...

- Mind your own business!

She's your sister!

If you do this to her again,

I won't forgive you!

Listen,

we can't waste any more time!

If Magobei reaches Arakawa,

we can't do anything.

Jirota, this time you go!

Somehow, you must send him to Hell!

Why are you worried about me?

Have we met before?

Maybe we did.

You resemble my father a lot.

Your father?

Do I look so old?

I was just a child

when he was killed.

Was he a samurai?

A ronin.

Then, you are a Second

generation ronin, aren't you?

For sure, I don't want a Third...

My father specialized in

Dojo yaburi (Dojo breaking)

To make a living.

If I am not wrong,

it was right after his Dojo yaburi

in Koshu -

I was only Seven years old...

Sixth Year of Tenpo

(1835), late Autumn.

After that fight,

he became a wanted man.

And...

... he ended his life

like seaweed in the ocean.

I see... but I am not like

your father who was so nave...

Oddly, as I listened to your story,

I felt as if I knew him.

I'm sure that you know what

I am thinking now, don't you?

Let's be partners!

I'll pay you a lot of money.

And if I refuse?

Do you want to be a poor ronin forever?

Magobei, I'm following you

so I can see

how you free yourself from this cage.

What are you mumbling about?

Just keep your eyes...

Withdraw! Withdraw!

Kiba, we came here to get you!

The men who left were my students.
