Huh, that was easy!
As I thought, this is some incredible treasure.
I hope you won't hate me for this, Miss Shigure.
Who's that?
Ouch!
I gave this to the girl, not you.
I'm taking it back.
Right, old man?
You knew I was here.
Dakuan!
I was taking an evening stroll...
and I just happened to walk by here.
Jeez! I can't trust anyone!
You are full of it, old man.
I know you've been following me all along.
You go back to Miss Shigure...
and mind the fire like a good kid.
OK, OK.
Hey, Jubei.
I'll get you for this.
The wind has changed its direction.
The smell of sulfur is stronger now.
How about it, Jubei?
Will you be her bodyguard?
You can take care of her alone.
Who is she anyway, that girl Shigure?
Well, she is...
Oh, my, what is it?
Jubei.
I will get it back.
Please get it back, Jubei.
A monster!
It doesn't look like you were manipulating that root.
I won't let you move one step further.
What?
Such a blow has no effect on my body.
No use running away.
Give me back the other half of the Sacred Dragon Stone...
then I will spare your life.
Well, well.
For someone who looks like you, you do have a merciful heart.
Well, that's a kind offer, but I can hardly accept it.
Then, die!
I smell something.
It's a woman.
Even better, she is young and a rare beauty.
Are you one of the Kimon?
Sexy voice.
When you cry, it must sound even more...
Hand me over the Sacred Dragon Stone.
Is that your reply?
Then this is my response to you.
Karasemi trick.
Well done, well performed.
I will definitely make her mine.
Listen.
Find that woman!
Where are you?
I'm here!
When taken, it immediately works.
My sword is bitter to your taste.
The powder touched her.
I see.
Someone took that Dragon Stone.
Ohh, that's too bad!
Jubei has the other half.
Is that Dragon Stone such a precious thing?
Take this!
Oh, I see.
A maiden's naked body charmed by a tree.
This is some beautiful sight.
Trample beauty and rape her...
it's a wonderful moment, it's my ultimate pleasure.
Are you awake? My beautiful maiden.
Forcing someone like that, you are no gentleman.
She is the one who controls the roots.
And you with a burning desire have the Stone.
Give it back to me! The Stone!
Just as I thought.
I was getting tired of waiting, Kitsunebi.
Only half.
Well, that's fine.
Everything starts from now.
If I turn around to the leeward...
I can smell him.
How funny, the one I have to chase at dawn...
is the fireball guy!
I got it! I got his smell.
Listen, learn his scent well.
He is a tall man of about 6 feet.
Go!
Moths?
Crap!
The reason he turned around to the leeward was this.
It is daybreak.
Let's leave these woods for now.
Hey, hey, what are we going to do...
about that Treasure Stone?
For now, we have no choice but to trust him.
That guy?
He will come back.
I wonder.
You have a better idea?
Ohh... I don't know.
Jubei.
Sleeping potion?
If it goes on like this...
A smell of sulfur...
Well, then!
You can't get away from my trick.
After all, they are only insects.
What are you doing? Go! Go to him!
You are on the leeward, and I'm on the windward.
This is the pit of hell.
Even birds avoid flying over here.
Is that so?
But I have this one.
Go!
What?
Y-you!
Half the Dragon Stone is in the hands of someone else now.
Half doesn't mean a thing.
The two halves make one.
With his humongous sword, Kimonshu Zampa attacks Jubei.
Tsubute, who took a chance and got the Dragon Stone...
runs downtown.
On the way there he meets Tatunoske...
a young boy with an astonishing revelation about himself.
Where would this strange friendship...
born between the two of them go?
Next, on Ninja Scroll, "Kongo Doshi."
Don't miss it!
