Be prepared!

Miyamoto Musashi.

I don't know who you are, but do me a favor.

If you just let us pass through, I will not take your lives.

You are desperate to avoid fighting us.

You're more of a coward than I've heard.

Just as our brothers had told us.

Your brothers?

That's right.

We're the Yoshioka Sisters.

We shall avenge our brothers!

The Yoshioka Sisters?

Let's go!

Know for yourself our art of assassination which we perfected in the darkness!

Look up!

Musashi!

Sayo!

Sayo!

ONIMUSHA

YIN SOUL

Sorry... I'm sorry...

How was it?

It wasn't poison.

Okay.

But she has a high fever, probably from fatigue.

I'm going to go get some herbs to reduce her fever.

Right now? It's foggy out there.

But the sun hasn't set yet.

There's a river nearby, so we can't walk around at night.

I need you to wet this cloth and put it on her forehead.

Understood.

Will you stay on the lookout, Sir Musashi?

Those women may show up again.

Sir Musashi?

- I'll be outside. - It's foggy out there.

I can still train.

I'll leave her to you.

That sword style...

It was surely Yoshioka's.

That's also the Genma's power.

The Genma's power and the huge amount of gold...

Iemon, what are you up to?

I can't see it.

What are you doing?

Hey, wait!

Are you awake?

Are you injured?

No.

You're from the red-light district, right?

Yes.

Why were you searching for a sword?

A samurai stayed overnight,

so I thought I'd return his sword to his family at least.

Don't lie to me.

When you were looking at the sword,

you didn't seem like you were thinking about such things.

Tell me the truth.

Why were you searching for a sword?

I wanted to own it.

Were you going to steal it?

Sir, there were no corpses around the sword.

A samurai who runs away leaving his sword behind has no right to carry it.

Well...

The owner of that sword is named Iemon.

He is my pupil.

He was found dead this morning.

Why do you want a sword?

Do you want to become a samurai?

Answer me.

I feel like I want to, but at the same time I don't.

Raise your head.

A sword is a samurai's soul.

You don't have what it takes to own it now.

Come at me.

You must not drop your sword.

And you absolutely must not let your guard down.

In the battlefield...

You're very interesting.

You can stay here for a while.

I'm going to attend the funeral.

I like fire.

It's constantly flickering.

It just keeps burning and keeps anything or anyone away.

I hope everything burns down.

When will I get to see Musashi?

Don't worry. He'll be here soon.

I will not forgive you if you let him get away.

Get away? There's no way he'd run away.

- Alfred. - Yes, sir.

People can't stay away from exciting things.

Life is tough and sad, so we all seek excitement

no matter how immoral it may be.

People are naturally drawn to exciting things.

Did you not like it, sir?

Gold is nothing but desire.

And Genma is power.

As long as I have these two, I can create a better world.

So exciting! How exciting!

Nobody can stop doing such exciting things.

Then, just get on with it.

Why do you have to wait for your old friends?

I learned swordsmanship from my master Matsuki Kensuke.

He had many pupils.

They are my only family who have shared both joys and sorrows.

I thought I could share this excitement with them.

Don't you have someone like that, Sir Sasaki?

Sure.

There's one.

Please don't die...

Although we trained together,

I feel so useless.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

- Sorry. - Forgive me.

I'm sorry.

Why am I still alive?

Sorry.

What am I living for?

Forgive me!

Stop!

You're awake now.

Are you all right?

How's your fever?

Where's everyone?

Sahei went...

to get some herbs.

And Heikuro...

Wasn't he with you?

No.

Forgive me. Forgive me!

But...

But just...

Just what can I do to help?

What?

Nothing.

It's not that interesting to watch.

My friends from the village loved to play samurai.

They said they wanted to become samurais.

They did?

Musashi, many samurais admire you, right?

You don't look like it though.

No one ever admires me.

Musashi, why are you practicing?

To become stronger.

But you are strong. Do you want to be stronger?

Go inside and get more rest. You've been injured.

When Sahei returns, you can chat with him.

He is not easy to talk to.

I am weak.

I'm so weak that I tend to rely on this.

And I feel like this will take over me.

If you become stronger, what do you want to be?

Same as your friends.

I want to become a samurai.

Impossible.

Even with Sir Musashi, I don't think we can win and make it back alive.

Iemon was always different from us!

He's a different being!

That is why...

we sought alternative paths besides swordsmanship.

Why did Master Matsuki summon us?

Why did he call me?

I want to go back.

I want to go back to those days when we trained together.

I don't want to die in the mountains like this.

No.

You shouldn't come with us.

Or stay here at least.

From here on out, it's a battlefield.

I...

I have to go there.

Why?

If this is a war, the one who started this...

is me.

I am the one

who brought back gold

from the mountain.

Six months ago,

when I was playing in the mountains with friends,

I got lost and went deep in the mountains.

I found gold in the river, and the gold mine up the river.

Then, I brought a chunk of gold back home.

My parents were happy to see me come home.

But the villagers became blinded by the gold.

Since then, everyone in the village has changed.

Please be careful.

Then Dad and Mom were taken away.

And my grandparents died.

Everyone else died, too.

The village was ruined

because...

I brought...

the gold back home.

Yeah.

That was your fault.

But you're not the only one to be blamed.

They were blinded by gold. They were taken away and killed.

You are not responsible for all of that.

You shouldn't be burdened with it.

You'll just have to face yourself.

That's all you have to do.

Leave the rest to us.

I trust you.

Just don't forget your strong will when we met.

We'll take care of the rest.

My bad.

I will not run away again.

Did we keep you waiting, Musashi?

Behold our enhanced skills at our best!

I'm going to kill you with a single blow this time.

You'll die instantly if these shuriken hit you.

Let's see if you can dodge these.

It's on!

All right, let's do this.
