Give me your sword.
So, this is an ocean, huh?
You've never seen an ocean before?
Yeah, I grew up in a mountain village.
Say, I guess there's a land beyond this ocean, right?
I wonder what kind of place it is.
Every place is the same.
There is a sky, and there's a ground...
and people living there.
Hmph. Don't be such a bore.
Huh?
Hey, Jubei, isn't that where we're supposed to go?
And where the hell is that old fart?
What took you so long?
Oh, there he is.
I've been waiting here for so long.
Are you kidding?
You have no idea what we had to go through to get here.
You better be grateful we even made it.
That's fine. I've already told them about you two.
Get on the ship.
He's so annoying.
Are you all right?
Hey, we were here before you.
Huh!
What was that all about?
We are traveling to Kyushu with an official mission.
What's wrong, old man?
I know him.
Help! Get me on the ship!
Let me go!
What are you going to do with me?
Well, I just want to show you something entertaining.
Have a good look at them!
Those Hiruko bums, the scum of society, have gathered.
I feel sick.
Already seasick? What a sissy.
Shut up!
You must be Jubei Kibagami.
I would like you hand over to me...
the so-called Hiruko treasure that you possess.
Who are you?
We don't need to tell you who we are!
Just hand over the Dragon Stone.
No, thanks. I hate snobs.
I see.
Then we have no choice.
Oh, no.
What's with this kid?
Hey, come on!
Hey!
I guess I have to do this.
What was that all about?
Gotcha!
Wow. I found something cool.
What?
My goodness!
Hey, kid, stop!
Get her!
You little brat!
I'm over here! Come and get me!
She's over there!
Hey, stop!
Wait! Wait up!
Where did she go?
Come and get me!
You brat!
Stop, you little brat!
See this? I'm over here!
Damn you!
Go through here and get that girl!
Why me?
Just hurry and get her before they do!
All right, all right, I'll go.
You sure make me do the dirty work.
You go around that corner. I will go this way.
Right.
I'm not going to play hide and seek with that brat.
You are Renya Yagyu, right?
Why are you after the sacred stone?
What will you do with it?
I feel sick.
Where's that kid?
I lost sight of her.
What a useless bum you are.
Lord! Lord!
What happened?
What's the matter?
Who did this?
It looks like we are not the only passengers...
aboard this ship.
Now the show begins.
You should enjoy this immensely.
Why?
It's because you are the Light Maiden...
the royal princess of the lost ancient Kingdom of Hiruko.
In order to protect you...
those lower-rank Hirukos will happily die in vain.
Damn. Where did she go?
Such a brat!
She's got to be somewhere on this ship.
Sooner or later, we'll find her. Come on, let's take a break.
What a disgusting little man.
So... why is Master Yagyu on board this ship?
They must be after Shigure as well.
Maybe there's another reason.
Huh?
His face has that knowing look to it.
As always, you sure don't miss a thing, huh?
I don't feel good.
Just like the other one.
You might be next.
What's this?
There!
Where is that old woman?
What?
Whoa!
There she is, the little brat!
What's wrong?
A scary old woman took my treasure and went away.
What? She took the Dragon Stone?
Oh, my God!
Come on, Jubei! We've got to find her!
I'll be right along.
It hurts!
You'd better stay still.
Here you go.
How's that? Does it still hurt?
Pain, pain, go away!
I got rid of the Hiruko scum.
We can now speed along and head for Kyushu.
I am so sorry, everyone. I'm so sorry.
If it weren't for me...
What? Are you still sick?
Shut up.
Huh? Why did you bring the brat with you?
You!
So, did you find that old woman?
Nope.
Hey, Master Yagyu...
what are you guys planning to do with the Dragon Stone?
Don't waste your breath, Jubei. He won't say anything.
Even when his men died, he stayed absolutely quiet.
He's a heartless monster.
Come on, let's find that bitch and get the Stone back from her.
That girl... could she be?
Ah...
I bet that old bitch has gotten off the ship by now.
What's the matter?
What happened to that brat?
She must've gotten bored.
She is probably off playing somewhere.
Well, if she doesn't have the Dragon Stone anymore...
we've got no use for her.
Jubei, come over here!
Whoa!
Damn!
What?!
Jubei! Tsubute! Take the Stone away from her!
The Stone, the Dragon Stone!
I won't let you have the Dragon Stone.
That useless bum.
Stop it!
As I suspected.
Oh, my God. She is a Hiruko.
Pain, pain, go away!
Give me the Stone.
No!
I guess she doesn't like you.
That sacred Stone is a key...
to the hidden place of enormous Hiruko treasure.
I can't let you have it.
Don't hurt him!
Pain, pain...
go away.
You!
Land! Thank God!
Wow! I'm on land, I'm on land!
