If it's done right,

we'll arrive in a day and a half in my estimate.

That's easier than done!

Yi Sun-shin can't be taken lightly!

There's one way to assure our victory!

Sailing the open sea and

approaching the capital to annihilate Yi with army

is the best strategy!

What do you think is about to happen here?

Why'd Hideyoshi sent for me, Wakizaka?

How dare you do that!

You should not utter his name!

Yi Sun-shin, will be crushed by my hand!

or maybe Konishi gets to the

capital first ahead of you?

I don't think there's a need

for this much tension.

Would you please forgive my men

for any hastiness?

Do sit!

Let's you and I work this out Kurushima.

One swing of this sword, blood will spread

Mother...

Father, it's Hoe.

Are you happy that you're here son?

I am.

But sir.

Speak freely.

You should get out of this mess.

Why not blame ailing

health and just return home?

We haven't even held a proper

funeral for grandmother.

We only have a temporary shrine.

Our men should join with the army.

You should go home

to be able to heal.

I can fell the resentment you harbor

towards our king.

The men tried to take your life from you.

How come you don't feel resentment?

Father.

We only have 12 ships to bring to battle!

We can hardly call ourselves a navy.

It's shameful.

Before

you somehow you do lead

these men to victory,

the king will surely abandon you again.

Why do you even consider fighting?

Loyalty.

But sir..

He doesn't even reciprocate it.

My boy..

a commander's loyalty

is forever with his king.

and His loyalty,

belongs to His entire nation.

but, what if he abuses it?

People create a nation, son..

A King has nothing without his people.

That's a problem.

They have no concern about any other people.

Please finish your dinner

before this precious.

Admiral.

Stay away to avoid beheading

Look at this...

Did you all see this?

That's Captain Bae..

Captain Bae Hong-suk!

Do not enter

Get them out of here!

Get them out!

Get out from there!

Now!

June 7th Kurushima

Michifusa 25 years

Tell me Kurushima! Did you really behead the prisoners

and send them back?

Only after I cut off their noses and remove their ears.

Well great! I see we're going to have to deal

with your foolishness.

What's the use of this senseless

provocation of the enemy?

Why not?

It'll at least be for an interesting fight.

Of course..

That assumes that they'll actually fight.

You learn the hard way.

Our enemy is strong and formidable!

You know. I hear your men talk of

Yi Sun-shin's prowess with good reverence.

Perhaps the fact that you are so

severely defeated in Hansan.

has shrunk your testicles.

That's the last you'll talk like that!

Let make this clear to you!

I'm here to Chancellor's direct request.

He knows what your doing to take

on the likes of Yi Sun-shin in the battle.

Don't be so reckless towards me..

Or your head might..

be the first one to fall.

My brother Michiyuki became a minion

and service to the chancellor,

He perished on his quest to conquer the capital city of Joseon.

I was facing the chancellor's wrath,

so he joined this war to save me,

His life was taken by Yi Sun-shin's own hand.

It happens now that the chancellor has fallen

ill and probably has a year left to the most.

That's why he's rushing to campaign along.

and in such a quick pace.

He's bound and determined to take on

Joseon once and for all.

I will make that city fall!

So you see.

Yi Sun-shi has to be made to suffer and perish.

Is that clear, Haru?

I hope that this will serve some sort of revenge.

My brother's deserving of his match.

Why did he do it?

Isn't that Oh Sang-go?

It is.

Oh Sang-go caught.

He got caught trying to flee.

We caught him trying to runaway near blood island Admiral.

Sir you have to understand that I lost all

of my comrades of six years in Chilcheollyang.

I'm here today to bury them with my own hands.

I just can't take this anymore.

I felt I had no other choice but to run.

I know that my death is unavoidable now.

Why must everyone of us

have to die for losing battle?

Are you about done Sang-go?

Understand this!

Discipline is crucial.

For everyone!

There's no backing out of this now I'm afraid.

He's willing to murder his own people.

Maybe so.. But...

We might have a way.

The strait creates a bottleneck here

which makes the

the current strong and unwieldy.

They say it can become so treacherous,

that no ship has a chance for escape.

I don't know about this.

They'll come this way if they'll

see it as an advantage. And probably

their thinking that it just

might be an advantage for them.

Look at those waves Admiral.

Theyll be able to ride those waves

and ram into our ships, tearing them apart.

We won't survive this.

That's why a working turtle ship is imperative!

You'll use it to break their front line.

Using our warships,

we'll fire our cannons from a distance.

It takes half a day

for the tide to change,

Can a turtle ship hold out that long?

When the tide changes,

the sea calms down considerably.

But that listen...

Can you hear that sound?

It's a different than it was before..

It's changed..

It's ominous..

Sort of like a man that's howling..

The real problem is the whirlpool.

You rarely hear that during the semi- diurnal.

But if you do you can be certain.

You're in for a lot of trouble..

Because that's when the whirlpool appears..

The semi-diurnal is in 2 days..

and so then...

Do you hear that sound?

I can certainly hear it.

It sounds like the howling of men

lost in Chilcheollyang.

I've been wondering..

Is the turtle ship your only tactic?

The problem is not my tactics.

It's the fear. It's quickly spreading

among my men. It is like a virus.

Can the men overcome this fear?

And what becomes of our force if they can't?

What about what you did today?

You beheaded one of your own man.

That's how you created discipline

How does that lead to victory?

Tell me...

How does that possible?

We can use it.

What?

You men the fear?

Admiral...

It is unjust...

Admiral...

Avenge us...

Avenge us...

Good to see you.

Welcome back, Hong-suk.

Captain Choi, Captain Lee...

Avenge us...

Come on in...

Please join me for a drink...

Please just stay for a drink..

Men...

Where are you all going?

Captain Lee...

Hong-suk...

Please!

Why must you rush off?

Watch out...

The turtle ship's on fire!

Admiral!

It's General Bae Seol's first mate.

Put out the fire!

Hurry!

Put it out!

Bring water!

Over there!

Ask yourselves!.....

Do you want to live?!

A dying man is

is leading us to the gates of Hell!

Listen now!,..

I'm making it so that we have a way out..

Do not let your life be taken away so senselessly!

Make a stand and join me!

This can't be..

It just can't be.

Admiral, it's too dangerous!

No... No,,,,...

No!

It can't be!

No!

- Admiral!

- Let me go!

No!

Our turtle ship!

Father, it's all over!

There's nothing any of us can do now!
