There's a shortcut. But I don't know if the horses can make it.

I don't care if they break their legs,

Hurry!

Can you see it?

When this hand points high, your soul will leave your body,

And the blood in your body will continue to live for the Emperor.

Think of it as an honor.

Are you worried?

No...

Be not afraid,

I hear Shougen is a great warrior, with many comrades at his side.

I am sure he will save the lord.

Can you do it?

The Wataoki and Kawashi armies are like brothers to me,

You won't need to worry.

I'm counting on you!

Leave it to me!

It's Jyuurouta!

Look! Lord Itadori has come too!

Lord Itadori!

We've been waiting for you!

What should we do?

Use the feudal lord as a shield and buy us time.

There's only two hours left until the ritual.

Th...the lord?

What a disgrace.

Shougen!

Is that you Shougen?

How can we attack now?

What does Lord Itadori plan to do?

Jyuurouta.

Shougen!

Don't panic!

It's time for you to ask your hearts!

Will you follow me?!

Or will you follow the dead lord?!

If you follow me, the country is as good as ours!

Bastard!

I will follow Lord Itadori!

What will you do?!

I'll follow Lord Itadori too!

Me...me, too!

I'll follow Lord Itadori!

Me too!

Me too!

We shall conquer this fortress!

What?

Unlike our Emperor,

To them a lord is just a descendant of a bloodline.

Useless as a hostage it seems.

Damn barbarians!

I'm leaving the ritual up to Kachuu.

Get down there and fight them off!

Fire!

Sh*t.

Damn.

Back!

Forward!

Forward!

I'll be going first.

Charge!

Lord Itadori!

After we've taken their heads,

I have a request!

You can have the princess to yourself!

Got you!

B*tch!

That's what you deserve!

Bows!

Aim well!

Split into two groups!

Yes!

Don't back down!

Now's the time!

Rush in while they're distracted!

Back down!

You guys go fight someone else.

This guy's my...

Prey!

I wouldn't try.

The spear is actually my true weapon.

It won't go like before!

I'm enough of an opponent for all of you!

I can't say I don't understand where you're coming from,

But it's an uneeded emotion.

This is the world we live in.

Our battle sounded the victory horn for our lord to become the new ruler.

This is all thanks to your hard work.

In all honesty,

I'm completely jealous.

Hurry up and do it, you coward!!!

It's time.

Tobimaru!

Kotarou!!!

That guy...

Move!

Move!!!

Tobimaru!

What's wrong? Come on!

I'm not feeling any pain!

Try to stab that sword through my heart!

Come on!!

Hurry up and get back here! Kachuu's dead!

I've taken care of the rest of them!

Tobimaru!

Let's go!

The ritual's been interrupted by someone!

The time has passed. What do you plan to do?

Isn't that obvious?!

We'll take back the child,

And we'll wait. Whether it's ten or a hundred years!

Leave it to me!

Seriously...

This isn't going to be cheap.

I knew it!

I heard you!

You called my name, right?

Damn it, you're late!

I told you I had a short patience!

Making me wait like that...

Alright, let's go. Don't fall behind.

I know.

I didn't say it to you.

I said it to Tobimaru.

Get back!

Nanashi!

Where's my sword?!

Where's my sword?

Nanashi!

Lord Rarou...

My...sword...

Lord....Ra...rou...

To kill Fuu and Suishin,

An impressive man.

Rarou!

You're in the way. Move!

Sh*t!

This is the end for you!

You bastard!

Have you gone crazy?!!

I am very sane.

I am now glad I came to this country.

I feel I've finally found an opponent who will challenge me.

I thank you for taking me on this journey.

You...!

Bastard warrior!

Rarou!

Planning to trick the Emperor and keep the drug for yourself,

You've thought this out well.

You are not worthy of immortality, you warrior!

The one who is worthy is a genius leader such as myself...

Haven't you already lived plenty?

What's happening?

The foreigner killed his comrade.

There's only...one left!

We met before.

Nanashi!

Use this....

USE:

DRUG:

PAIN:

GO AWAY:

I don't need it.

I feel like having the pain is what makes you feel alive.

That's great.

That's really great.

I like you more and more.

Nanashi!

This is the first time I've ever been cut.

The pain of a sword,

Somehow...strange...

Strange...

A strange feeling...

You've gotten pretty good.

Somehow...I feel like I'm walking on clouds.

You don't have to flatter me.

Are your wounds ok?

Yeah.

Even a treasure like that came in handy.

See?

Seriously...

What a boss.

Can you see the town yet?

Not yet,

I'm sure we're almost there!

Hey...?

Hey?

After you get better, how about we cross the sea and leave this country?

In foreign countries there won't be anyone who will bother you about your hair color, right?

A foreign country...

That doesn't sound all bad.

How will we save up the money?

We can be bodyguards, or thieves, or anything.

We can even start a pirate crew!

Man,

You're just looking for trouble.

I'm going to speed up a bit,

Hang on tight!

Alright.

Let's go!
