Captain!
Ancient China.
After learning that the era of saints had ended,
human desire was unleashed.
And a storm of violent wars erupted for 500 years...
until over one hundred states were reduced to merely seven.
And now, a wind of great history gusts from the State of Qin in the far West.
This is the tumultuous tale of a nameless boy and a young king who brought the warring era to its end!

The Power of the Sword
Xin... Xin!
Piao?!
Finally awake?
Huh?
Ah... My head got hit...
Now we're tied again.
Dammit!
Look, Xin.
It's a corpse.
Zhuxiong. I remember!
I beat him.
Well, another guy gave the finishing blow,
but he would've died by the wounds I gave him anyhow.
I avenged you!
But just you wait.
I'm about to get real revenge...
Zhuxiong was plenty enough for revenge.
What comes next is a different matter, Xin!
Piao, where're you going?!
Piao, wait!
Piao?
Zheng!
What's wrong, Xin?
How long are you intending to sleep?
Sheddep. My body's so beat up I can't move!
I'm astonished to hear that from the greatest general under the heavens.
Wh-What was that, bastard?!
I'll beat the shit outta you!
If you feel frustrated, then hurry and wake up.
I told you... Even if I want to, right now my body won't...
Xin.
I don't believe it...
Even though he'd lost the will to fight, with one word from Chengjiao...
A rare species of ape unlike any you've ever seen...
That's what the black market merchant that sold me Lankai said.
At first, I just took care of him out of curiosity, but what do you think now?
In just a few years he grew into this monster.
Because I scrupulously trained him since he was a child,
he'll listen to anything I say.
Anything!
What?
What the hell is with you?!
I saw lots of different kinds of people in Heibei Village,
but there wasn't anybody as much of a lowlife bastard as you!
It seems the insects are chirping.
Hey, insect, don't exhale out any more smelly breath. You're dirtying the royal palace.
You people foolishly and selfishly deceive, kill, and steal.
You're vulgar creatures that immerse yourself in the idea of taking advantage of others.
A kingdom is made up of the side that rules and the side that are ruled.
The moment I am higher and you all are lower
is the moment the country gains wealth and stability.
All you need to do is prostrate yourselves before me.
That is the true form of the controlled side!
Our duty is to fortify the royal bloodline,
climb to further heights, and build a stable country...
But Zheng disregarded me, who has purer royal blood, and took the throne.
That's why he was removed!
The royal family must be inherited by one who is worthy of carrying the royal family!
That's the problem with countries!
Is there anything you'd like to say back?!
Brat of the ignorant masses?!
What the hell is... "the problem with countries"?
Xin!
What...?
You're still alive, bastard?
Alive and kicking.
Chengjiao...
You took advantage of Lü Buwei being away, attacked Zheng, and stole the throne.
"Deceive, kill, steal"?
You're just like one of the ignorant people you just described!
I'm amazed to hear that from a pure blooded member of the royal family!
No matter what you say about your blood,
you just had a lot of unjustified anger at Zheng for taking the throne, didn't you?!
What do think you're asking, you ignorant commoner?!
Removing Zheng was the right thing to do for the country...
I'm not gonna understand the complicated details!
The thing I understand perfectly is...
that no matter how high and mighty you act,
there's not one person who'll put themselves on the line to protect you!
When it comes down to it, the only thing that obeys you is an ape that doesn't know any better!
You people are disgusting!
Those are just the cries of a loser, Lord Chengjiao!
Hey, someone. Bring him to me.
The king wishes to personally take his head.
B-But he has a sword!
You guys are remarkably good at escaping death anyhow!
Or would you rather all be food for Lankai?!
This is Lord Chengjiao's command.
Capture that boy at once!
Okay, let's go.
My eyes!
H-Hey, what happened?!
Are you all right?!
Now then, ain't it about time you got down from there, Chengjiao?
Zheng is pretty mad outside!
Not yet!
Your highness, forgive me...
Totch, Fuuji.
Protect the Qin King.
Do not allow any possibility for the worst!
M'am!
Ramauji, watch their backs.
M'am!
As I thought, him having the high ground puts me at a disadvantage.
Changwenjun!
If I keep blocking Weixing, I'll lose.
Against such numbers, the morale boost the king gave us will soon reach its limit!
We're running out of time! Hurry, Xin!
Watch out!
You're in the way! Get over there!
Where is "over there"?!
That ape monster's rampaging all over the place!
Dang, it's really not working.
What the hell is with his body?!
Are you okay, Xin?!
He just got a couple ribs.
Lankai, finish them!
D-Dammit... What do I do...?
That ape's almost dead...
But my sword... Is my sword no good?
That's not so!
Have more faith in your sword!
But the sword hasn't been working on him!
That's just because your skill is still immature!
What?!
The sword has been honed by 500 years of Chinese history, it's the strongest of all weapons!
Among all the weapons that exist,
the sword has done nothing but evolve for the goal of defeating enemies.
Everything depends on the person using it!
That is the essence of the weapon known as a sword!
You should know that!
It depends on the person using it...
Lines and... a point.
I see.
Not bad!
Hey, are you gonna go at him with the sword again?
Diao, tie my right hand with the ribbon from the scabbard!
By the way, Diao,
when this is over, how much do you think you're gonna rake in from Zheng?
I haven't thought about how much or anything yet.
Why bring it up at a time like this?
Oh, is that right?
Well, you'd better start thinking about it!
Captain! Could you find some way to stop that big ape from moving?!
Until you can count to 10... No, just 5 is fine!
If you can do that, I can take him down!
All right, then.
Shunmen!
Crush them, Lankai!
Run!
Tajif!
How's this, boy?!
That's plenty!
It's not about strength...
I need to become one with the sword
and without one bit of deviation
make it point straight down
to make this one point
pierce!
Anybody who doesn't feel like fighting should go to bed!
What're you doing, Lankai?!
Stand up!
Why don't you get up, you ape monster?!
Stand up and crush those insects!
If you don't, I'll punish you!
Threats ain't gonna work now.
He can't stand up anymore.
It's over, Chengjiao!
How...?
How did this happen...?
Ying Zheng, Changwenjun, Wang Qi...
Yang Duan He, Mountain People, and that riffraff brat.
What is the cause for their victory?
Everything... If they were missing any one element, this would not have happened.
Did they walk a tightrope to reach this point, as well...?
It was mortifying...
Having to kneel to a shitty brat like that Chengjiao...
And the work of exhausting every means to rise to the position of chancellor...
My dream of killing Lü Buwei and ruling over the State of Qin...
has all vanished... All of it...
Y-You bastards!
Don't run! You need to fight!
Death! You will all be punished with death!
What are you doing, hurry!
Don't push! We can't pull the door open!
No, it won't open!
It's all over!
Over...?
No! It has not ended!
I-I'm still not done!
Out of the way!
Chancellor! Pushing your way through won't...
Shut your mouth!
I'm not done yet!
If we can escape the castle, there are 80,000 soldiers on standby!
Open it! Open this door!
You sure are pathetic, ain'cha?
You bastards, you don't intend to...
Do you ignorant commoners actually intend to kill me, a member of the royal family?!
What else would we be doing?
Don't screw around! Are you an idiot?!
Do you honestly think something like that can be forgiven?!
I am the king of the State of Qin!
Such a thing cannot happen!
Yeah it can.
Because this is war.
Unfortunately, I cannot let you through here.
By the orders of my lord, I will be cutting down anyone who approaches this door.
Wh-Why is Wang Qi's lieutenant...?
No, more importantly...
Don't let Jie Shi get away!
We need his head to end the war!
Understood.
Me, die?!
Oh no!
It turns into a maze past that door!
If he gets in, we'll definitely lose track of him!
Out of the way, insect!
I'll crush you under my foot!
Don't miss, Diao!
Like I could miss this!
D-Don't fuck with me!
I am a leader of the Great State of Qin,
Chancellor Jie!
We did it. We finally did it!
Jie Shi, the man even Lü Buwei couldn't assassinate, has been killed!
Th-The exit...
There's no way... I'll die...
D-Diao!
Y-You bastard!
Xin! He's running! Follow him!
Go after Chengjiao, Xin!
He's got nowhere left to run.
He has a pulse.
Hey, Diao.
Just a little further and you'll get all the money you want.
A great life, totally different from the one you lived in that awful village, is waiting for you...
You can't drop dead in a place like this!
Brother Bi!
Take care of Diao!
Right.
A mistake...
This must be some mistake...
I'm the king of the State of Qin, Chengjiao!
I'm the king... I'm the king...
I'm the king!
I'm sorry, Diao.
I'm sorry this had to happen to you...
Diao... Please don't die!
Shit! Anyway, I need to stop the bleeding!
Maybe I can still make it!
Chainmail...
I'm no match for you guys.
You really are some incredible boys.
It's okay, Tajif.
The wound isn't deep.
Diao, I'll stop the bleeding right now, okay?
Diao, you're...
Lord Chengjiao!
What are you doing out here alone?!
What on earth...
Did something happen in the inner palace?!
Please tell me. Why did you come here alone?
What happened to the chancellor and the other ministers?!
Jie Shi was... killed.
What?!
What is it you said, my lord?!
There's simply no way the chancellor could have been killed!
Just who is it you say killed him?
Who could have?!
The monkeys that came in from the corridor!
They got past Zuoci?!
No... it can't be!
Lord Chengjiao, I'll ask once again.
Has Chancellor Jie lost his life?!
If there's any chance he's still alive...
Do you think there's a human that can live as a head?!
Chancellor Jie has died...
Doesn't that mean we've lost?!
Shi Shi! You're the chancellor's officer, aren't you?!
Can't you do something?!
Please stop, Lord Chengjiao.
Chengjiao?!
Why is he here...?!
Could it be?!
General Wang Qi...
General Wang Qi!
Did you say General Wang Qi!?
General Wang Qi!
When did he come into the palace...?
No, why's he coming here?!
General Wang Qi!
I have something I wish to ask you!
Why did you present us with a fake head?!
Do you have any satisfactory answer?
If not, you'll die where you stand.
Wang Qi, having falsely presented Changwenjun's head,
is already clearly our enemy.
Weixing, just what I'd expect from my right hand.
If this turns into a fight with the Wang Qi army,
we cannot have victory without taking Wang Qi's head.
Right now he's mounted on a horse and has the higher ground.
There isn't a sliver of a chance that Weixing could lose!
There's no need for mercy, even if your opponent is a general!
Kill him!
Th... This is...
Wang Qi?!
I wonder if rain will fall from these clouds or not...
I really wouldn't mind it.
Why did you come here, Wang Qi?!
Might you be betraying Chengjiao and joining our side?!
Quite the jest.
Your sweet little squabble was dragging on a little much,
so I thought I'd dirty the field up a bit.
What did you say, you bastard?!
Just how much do you intend to mock us?!
General.
If you have business with us, hurry and say it.
We are busy.
We do not have time to spend on you right now!
I came to take your life.
