"The contain the list of the disciples of the Yagyu Shinkage school." "In no case, can they harm the policy or trouble the order in the country." "I'll ask the question again." "It is said that they're made of three scrolls." "Where are they?" "Please answer me." "I have no idea." " Don't you know?" " No." "You're the head of the Yagyu family." "You probably know it." "I only know that one of the three scrolls is in my house." "We're in presence of the Shogun Iemitsu." "I wouldn't lie." "I noticed a few things." "Last year, a scroll was stolen from the Nabeshima clan." "The thief was Sandayu Yuge, one of your disciples." "People say that the one who killed Sandayu to take it back was your son, Jubei." "I wasn't aware of that." "One more thing." "The third scroll was at Great Counsellor Yabu's house." "By coincidence, it ended in Okubo's house and a man pretending to be princess Yu stole it." "He was probably a member of your clan." "Do you have anything to say about it?" "All of this has been made up." "I don't know anything about it." "I have some evidence." "The weapons that the thief left at Okubo's house." "They belong to your family." "Tajima Yagyu, answer me." "What shall I answer?" "Tell me what secrets these Chronicles contain." "Your wisdom is well known." "Why does a man as smart as you are... pay so much attention to the Martial Chronicles?" "You're mistaken." "It's very amusing." "You still deny the obvious despite all those pieces of evidence?" "In the name of the Yagyu family," "I swear that I don't know anything." "No, in the name of the Yagyu Shinkage school." "Me too, in the name of my family..." "Stop it, Izunokami!" "You haven't prepared your questions well enough." "I'm ordering you to put an end to this debate." "Wait!" "Please, let me continue." "That's enough!" "Halt!" "Hurry!" "Let me pass!" "Quiet!" "I'm Hikozaemon Okubo." "I'm known as "the Dispenser of Justice"." "The Shogun gave me the authorization to come with a palanquin to the entrance." "I ahve an urgent matter to settle." "You're going to regret your gesture." "Izunokami..." "How was the meeting?" "I've been dismissed from my post." "What?" "I realized that" "I wasn't as clever as Tajima Yagyu." "But it's insane!" "Well, I'm going to talk to the Shogun." "The time as come to justify my nickname." "Okubo, don't you understand?" "I don't hold Tajima Yagyu in higher esteem than Izunokami Matsudaira." "I fear that revealing the secrets of these Chronicles might drive Tajima to rise up against my family, the Tokugawas." "How?" "The Yagyus aren't so powerful." "They're not the only ones that I fear." "What are you telling me?" "The Yagyu family is protected by the imperial court." "These secrets are extremely compromising." "It could trigger new civil wars." "So you can see that the Martial Chronicles are embarrassing for both the Shogun family and the imperial court." "And that's not all." "If the three scrolls fall into enemy hands, the Yagyu will be compromised too." "Izunokami," "Shogun Iemitsu dismissed you from your post for a simple and very good reason." "He plan to secretly investigate the mysteries contained within these Chronicles." "You have the reputation of a wise man." "The time has come to prove it." "There are three scrolls." "The Yagyus have one and a half." "The other half is in the hands of Fugetsusai Yamada." "Where's the third scroll?" "Princess Yu of the Ryuzoji clan, and a ninja called Tasaburo might have left Edo with it." "If it's true, then let's find Princess Yu instead of going to Edo." "Fine." "Do you have any idea about where she can be?" "It's easy to find a traveller." "Let's send several groups." "Jubei Yagyu is also looking for them." "HE must not find them before us." "There's one too many men!" "There's a spy among us." "Faithfulness or loyalty?" "Faithfulness nº3!" "Next!" "Faithfulness nº7!" "Next!" "Faithfulness nº5!" " Next!" " Faithfulness nº8!" "Faithfulness... nº8..." "That's him!" "You fell in the trap." "Who are you?" "Show your face!" "One moment." "Show your face too." "Who are you?" "You're not working for the Yagyus or for Izunokami Matsudaira." "You're not ordinary rats." "What?" "On him!" "You'll regret it." "Who are you?" "Your name!" "You probably know it." "I'm Senshiro of the Kasumi!" " A Kage school ninja?" " Exactly." "Now that you've revealed yourself, you'll stay here." "Where's your brother, Tasaburo?" "I don't know." "I want to see the face of your leader." "I'll find out who you are, sooner or later." "Stop!" "These men were probably hired by Yabu, the Great Counselor at the imperial palace." "Thanks to you, Senshiro, we now know that Tasaburo and princess Yu escaped with the Chronicles." "They should have gone to the Sagami river." "Don't worry about that." "Follow me." "I'll never leave you." " Are you happy?" " Yes." "What a pleasure to be alive." "I only want you, nothing else." "I'd like to have a child." " What's up?" " Someone is here." "There's nobody here." "You must have dreamed." "No, I'm certain." "Someone wants to get us." "Why?" "For the Chronicles." "We don't have them anymore." "They believe the opposite." "The Yagyus and the Fugetsusais are convinced that I have the scroll." "Don't you trust me?" "I'm here, whatever happens." "Don't worry." "You're not a princess and I'm not a Kasumi ninja anymore." "Our life has changed." "My brother doesn't have the Chronicles." "Go and tell Fugetsusai." "I'm staying here to look for them." "All right." "I don't know who are those men but they want Tasaburo." "We must find the scroll before them." "Stay on your guard!" "Those guys are dubious." "Shall we kill them?" "No." "Now we know that the princess is around here." "Who are you?" "You won't pass!" "Shoot." "Don't worry." "It's just a coincidence that I'm here." "Get your strength back." "Is there anybody with you?" "You probably have a good reason to dress up like a man." "No, I won't ask you any question." "I'll find your friends." "Wait!" "Dubious-looking men are following me." "Stay with me." "My name is Sanshiro Kozuki, a young samurai." "I can help you if you want." "Princess!" "You're safe and sound!" " Who are you?" " Wait!" "Stay here and don't make any noise." "Get back in!" "I'm happy to see you again." "Is it you, Jubei?" "Yes, Jubei Yagyu." "Forgive my behavior." "But you must talk." "I don't have the Chronicles." "I know." "Start by giving me your sword." "Otherwise..." "I'll break her arm!" "I did what you asked, let her go!" "I want one of you to tell me where the scroll is." "I have no idea!" "Princess, talk!" "Or else, Tasaburo will die!" "I don't know either!" "Do you have a personal grudge against us?" "We've got nothing to do with that." "Shut up!" "Go!" "Stop!" "Harder!" "Where did you throw it away?" "Talk!" "You're vile." "We don't know where they are." "You're ruthless." "Hit me instead!" "Kill me if you want!" "Very well!" "I'll kill you if that's what you want." "No objection, Tasaburo?" "Stop!" "Let's go!" "Yu!" "I understand your pain but moaning is useless." "You won't see her again." "I will." "She'll always be alive in my heart." "I could only think of fighting." "She taught me to live like a man." "We always face death." "Two orphans left to themselves can only have a tragic fate." "We keep suffering when we try to lead a peaceful life." "You can't understand." "You'll never understand." "You don't know anything about love." "Yes, you're right." "But love is an illusion." "Fighting is the only thing that matters." "We must fight..." "fight to the death." "Tasaburo, don't you want to come back to our group?" "No." "Then what will you do?" "I'll kill Jubei Yagyu." "And avenge her?" "I'll act alone without any help." "I'll become a demon to avenge her." "You must be kidding!" "How can a carrier have so much money?" "You stole it." "I swear I didn't." "I told you that I sold a scroll that I found." "I never lie." "What was written in this scroll?" "Talk!" "I already told you." "I have the reputation to be honest but unfortunately I'm illiterate." "I'd do something else if I knew how to read." "Idiot!" "What was in it?" "Don't try to muddle us up!" "Lock him up." "I told you the truth!" "I work for Izunokami Matsudaira." "I have a few questions to ask him." "Let me talk to him." "Do you recognize the scroll drawn here?" "Yes, it looks like it." "Was it red or green?" "Red, I'm sure of it." "With two green balls on the tips." "I see." "What about the man who bought it?" "He had a moustache." "It was a fat man." "An ascetic from the mountains." "He was with a woman." " Where did they go?" " West." "Hey you, wait!" "What?" "What do you want?" "You're with a woman, aren't you?" "Take off your hats." "How dare you ask that to priests?" "Who are you?" "You're not priests." "Don't argue!" "Damn it..." "Go!" "Stop!" "Forgive my brutality." "Are you hurt?" "Who are you?" "Why did you take me here?" "I just saved you, without any specific intention." "My name is Sanshiro Kozuki, a young samurai." "Liar!" "If that's what you think then how would you want me to be called?" "You're trying to find my identity." "You're a spy." "I don't care about your identity." "You'd hide the truth anyway." "I don't need to know who you are and where you're coming from." "I like you, that's all." "The gods are mischievous." "What do they seek by arranging for us to meet?" "I'll keep you in my heart." "Go out later without being seen." "Ise sea" "Limpid, limpid is its shore" "Sea shells" "We're picking sea shells, We're picking perls" "In Mino mountain" "The cranes are gathering in great numbers" "Play in the fields" "Play with the flowers, Play with the grass" "Ladies and gentlemen, throw her some coins!" "Throw them and watch her catch them!" "She never misses them!" "Come on, throw her some coins!" "Here!" "I don't care about your rank." "When we'll be older, we'll get married." "But I'm only the daughter of a vassal and you're the son of the lord Yagyu..." "It's not Rika." "But she looks exactly like her." "Rika watched over me day and night after my operation." "I abandonned her when I left the house." "Young master!" "I can't live here anymore!" "I rebelled against my father." "Why didn't I take her with me?" "I thought my father was inhuman but I couldn't see that I was just like him." "We were expecting you." "You..." "You seem to be the son of Tajima Yagyu." "Don't be surprised." "I saw your family blazon painted on your box." "Am I right?" "What if I said no?" "Your family is so famous that you're hiding your origin." "I don't want to reveal mine either." "Would you like to join us and be our fellow traveller?" "The sky is becoming overcast." "I hope it won't rain." "Rain is very bad for business." "You're pretty." "Are you a servant of the inn?" "Let go of me." "I'm a customer." "Oh really?" "I'm sorry." "Forgive me." "What's your name?" "It's pretty, isn't it?" "Very pretty." "My room is here." "Come to see me if you want." "I have an object which is very important to the Yagyus." "Should I tell you more?" "What is it?" "Show it to me." "No, I'd like you to promise me something first." "What promise?" "I'm not asking to lead the Yagyus." "I only want to be hired as a shogun samurai with a 5000 koku pay." "I think the object is worth it." "Who's there?" "Don't you want to show it to me?" "It seems that you're still doubting me." "We'll continue this conversation when we'll know each other better." "Where did Maya go?" "I must talk to you." "Quick!" "Listen." "Get as close as possible to this man." "Try to seduce him." "Snuggle up to him and when he'll make advances to you, let him do it." "Understood?" "Don't you want to obey me?" "You're really terrible." "It's important." "We have no other choice." "Are you willing to sacrifice me?" "You're taking it too far!" "Come on, hurry." "I'll go out for a walk." "I'll be back at dawn." "Okay?" "I'll cast a spell on you if you don't obey!" "Then do as I said!" "Do you think I'm evil?" "I heard everything he told you." "Who is he to you?" "Your master?" "Or your father?" "My husband." "Your husband?" "You're married?" "Why did he ask you to give yourself to another man?" "I have no idea." "Absolutely no idea." "He forced you to marry him, didn't he?" "Who is he?" "He seems to have something belonging to the Yagyus." "What is it?" "Wouldn't it be the Martial Chronicles?" "His name is Hogen Tendo." "He's a monk." "He casted a spell on me." "I can't escape." "A wizard?" "He knows everything I do, even when I'm far from him." "What?" "You're a good man." "God damn it!" "You're just a slut." "You sold yourself to me." "So now I can do whatever I want with you." "Stop!" "Woman, turn around and lie down on the ground." "Who are you?" "I'll spill your guts if you scream." "You have a scroll of the Martial Chronicles." " Give it to me without resistance." " I..." "Don't deny it!" "Take off your clothes." "Take off your clothes!" "You see?" "I don't have it." "It's a bad misunderstanding." "I know that you have it." "You want to trade it for a 5000 koku samurai post." "Is it at the inn?" "Probably not in your belongings." "Where did you hide it?" " Shall I pierce you?" " Wait!" "It's in the ceiling of my room." " Aren't you lying?" " No!" "I'll kill you if it's not true." "Wherever you hide, wherever you go," "I'll kill you." "Turn around." "This way!" "Did you get the lesson?" "I'm the one who'll get you." "I paralyzed you." "Say your last prayer!" "Why don't you sleep?" "I should have gone to another inn." "Tell me, do you like me?" "Why do you ask?" "You can do whatever you want with me if it pleases you." "I like you." "Because you look like someone I loved." "Do I look like a man who would take advantage of you?" "What's going on, Maya?" "Leave the inn at once." "Or else he'll kill you!" "What?" "Kill me?" "I beg you, go away!" "Or spend the night with me if you don't want to leave!" " I don't understand." " Hurry!" "Hurry!" "Make up your mind!" "I trust you so I'll leave." "Maybe we'll meet again." "Take care of yourself." "Come on, hurry!" "Damn..." "Hello, sir." "Did somebody leave?" "Yes, the man who was with you." "What?" "You let him go?" " No..." " Liar!" "Maya, go on guard." " Thank you very much." " Thank you." "See you soon." "Maya, do you know the samurai who is following us?" "Don't you dare lie to me." "Understood?" "Come." "Why are you following us?" "Because you lied to me." "What lie did I tell you?" "Think carefully." "I don't know." "Where ?" "When?" "Last night, on the first floor of the inn." "You casted a spell on me." "It was you?" "You finally recognize me?" "You're not so smart." "I didn't find the scroll." "I told you that I would follow you until I get it." "And of course, I'll kill you after." "Calm down." "You don't have much time." "Go, move." "I'm following you." "Show yourself, wizard!" "Fight me with a sword!" "Don't be ridiculous!" "I'll throw my weapon and kill you if you get any closer!" "Throwing weapons are my specialty." "You'll be riddled with holes with my ninja stars." "Are you ready?" "I'm gonna get you!" "Stop!" "Move!" "Maya, stop!" "It's dangerous." "Move!" "I'm coming, wizard!" "You're lucky to have such a woman." "She's protecting you even though she wants you dead." "She won." "But, one day, I'll steal the Chronicles from you." "Princess!" "I saw the man from the other day." "I'm sure that he's following us." "We'd better leave." "What are you saying?" "Doesn't he look dubious to you?" "I made up my mind on him." "He's fooling you!" "Don't forget our mission." "I'd like it if he was fooling me." "What?" "Pull yourself together." "He's not just a simple samurai." "To fool or be fooled is part of our mission." "But, princess..." "Excuse me." "It's you..." "Can't you guess what kind of woman I am?" "And you, can't you guess what kind of man I am?" "A smart man." "I can't tell if your good or evil." "I am what you see." "You're just like me." "Me?" "You're a spy." "You're looking for something." "What?" "I don't know, but maybe we're looking for the same thing." "Why are you doing that?" "You could mean trouble if I don't kill you." "Do you think you can do it?" "I stand no chance." "You're a Kasumi ninja." "Whatever my identity is and whatever yours is," "It doesn't matter." "Bastard!" "Stop!" "This man is dubious." "Wizard, are you here to rob me?" "No, I want to make you an offer." "What offer?" "I give you the Martial Chronicles." "In exchange we become allies." "You're not as bas as I thought." "You're wrong, I'm a villain." "The reason I give them to you is for power." "You're not made to serve." "You can seize power." "You're really weird." "I like you." "I fell under your charm." "According to this letter," "Senshiro of Kasumi is going to Owari with a scroll." "He's with a wizard called Hogen and is being followed par Yabu's men." "Now that he has the Martial Chronicles, why doesn't he go to Fugetsusai?" "It's strange." "The great Izunokami doesn't have an answer?" "Calm down!" "Wait!" "Fugetsusai Yamada?" "That's right." "I'm meeting my enemies to give them an advice about what to do." "Interesting." "Do you know that Tajima Yagyu is secretly sending the Chronicles to his Owari family?" "To Hyogonosuke Yagyu?" "So?" "Do you want to know the plan I have to offer?" "Yes, go on." "Catch him!" "Intruder!" "Guards!" "Intruder!" "Guards!" "He's wounded." "Go to the other side!" "Hang on." "Take heart!" "Where does Senshiro intend to go with the Chronicles?" "To Owari." "Owari-Nagoya" "Martial arts school" "Yagyu Shinkage Dojo" "What are you doing here?" "Don't be upset." "He's the new gardener." "A new gardener?" "Go, quickly!" "It doesn't look good." "You're bringing the manure?" "Put it here." "Thank you." "Excuse me." "Where is the grandmaster of the school?" "He mustn't be far." "How does he look like?" "I don't know exactly." "You're a disciple and you haven't seen him?" "He's tall with a large head and he's very hairy." "He also has big eyes." "Do you know the sandals of the god of war?" " He looks like them." " You must be kidding me." "Let's have a break." "Sir Jubei just arrived from Edo." "Good." "Matajuro, your elder brother is here." "My brother?" "You rebelled against your father." "You don't have to see him." "Do you want me to hide it in my house?" "At my father's demand." "Men are fighting and dying trying to get it." "It's ridiculous." "How can you say that?" "You're a Yagyu." "If these secrets are revealed, you won't be a weapon master any longer and you'll have to commit hara-kiri." "Doesn't it bother you?" "No, but I don't want to take advantage of the Chronicles to have an influence on politics like my father." "Why don't you burn it?" "If one of the three scrolls is gone, they won't be deciphered." "Your father might then lose his post of Great Inspector." "As long as he'll be able to use the Chronicles to put pressure on the government and the court, he'll take advantage of them." "Apparently peace seems to persist but can we really talk of real peace?" "What do you think, Jubei?" "Do you approve of your father?" "I'm not up to me to decide." "I must eliminate those who want to get the Chronicles." "Please keep them in a safe place." " Matajuro?" " Yes." "Come in." "Uncle, you should burn them." "So you heard us." "Since you don't share my father's opinion, why don't you destroy them?" "It's not so easy." "Our family's fate depends on it." "I must talk to your father." "Can you tell me... their secrets." "Maybe now is the time to tell you." "Within these Martial Chronicles, are the names of the disciples of the Yagyu Shinkage school." "They're scattered over Kanto, Kansai and Kyushu, acting in the shadow." "They pick their mission randomly." "Only the man concerned knows about it." "Spying on the Satsuma clan..." "Disbanding the Ryuzoji clan..." "Killing Chunagon Ichijo..." "The Yagyus accomplish these tasks to strengthen the power of the Tokugawas since three generations." "But the Tokugawas aren't the only partners." "Plotters in the court asked them to assassinate the eldest and youngest sons of emperor Gomizunoo." "You believed your family dedicated to martial arts." "I understand your disappointment." "But listen, Matajuro." "I don't want the Yagyus to live only for that." "I understand very well." "Me too, I'd like... to be proud of my family." "Really?" "Hogen probably managed to infiltrate them." "He won't be back soon." "He's a strange man." "He's ambitious but doesn't accomplish anything." "He'll spend his whole life dreaming." "Why are you only talking about him?" "Because he's better than me." "No, you're both different." "Of course." "I live and I'll die in the shadow." "Him, he has dreams." "Don't talk like that." "You're a man of quality." "Me?" "Fool." "I could have been someone during the civil wars." "But what can an orphan do in a time of peace?" "I always run like a rat." "Don't talk like that!" "I was kidding." "I'm here for you." "I'm coming." "Who are you?" "You're Jubei Yagyu." "Your name?" "Tasaburo." "You killed my wife." "I had decided to quit fighting but I'm back as a demon to avenge her!" "I don't care about your reasons." "Fight!" "Of course." "That's what I intend to do." "Get ready!" "Are you scared?" "Tasaburo," "You're still very talented." "Let's call it a draw." "No!" "Let's finish it!" "I have a mission to accomplish." "Can we postpone our duel?" "I won't hide." "What do you think, Tasaburo?" "You're smart, Jubei." "All right." "I give you a month." "Fine." "Use it to practice." "What's going on?" "Do you have regrets?" "No." "What's on your mind?" "We promised not to worry." "In times like this, we're just... a man and a woman." "A woman... can't stop herself from thinking about some things." "About happiness..." "No need to think so much." "We're living hidden." "I know." "If I hadn't met you," "I would have remained strong." "Why did I become a spy?" " I have to go." " Wait!" "Don't you want it?" "Your mission would be over." "I won't have any reason to see you if I take it." "What are you doing here?" "I'm the new gardener." "I'm not familiar with the place yet." "I'm lost." "Raise your head and look at me." "Do you see the sandals of the god of war?" "Stay here!" "I know him." "He's dubious." "There's no house without rats." "Let him go." "Be careful." "Don't put too much trust in our master." "Why?" "Remember that Fugetsusai ordered you to kill your brother, Tasaburo." "He'll kill you once he'll get the scroll that you have." "Do you understand?" "Why help him?" "We're ninjas." "We must stay alive." "What an exemplary behavior!" "I'm impressed." "Nevertheless, Senshiro, what would you do if you knew that your master betrayed you?" "Fugetsusai allied to a member of the government," "Izunokami Matsudaira." "He's not looking for justice." "He's only ambitious." "Let's have no remorse to betray a traitor." "So this is your intention?" "Fortunately, you have the Chronicles." "You can fight both the Yagyus and Fugetsusai with them." "Did you never consider it?" " Never." " Liar!" "It probably crossed your mind." "Be true to yourself." "Let's team up." "I'll be on your side if you kill him." "You're not talking." "Don't you agree?" "Or would you rather act alone?" "You too, one day, you'll be murdered..." "Fugetsusai will kill you." "What you just did proves that you've chosen your side." "Are you determined to act?" "Are you prepared to fulfil the dream of your life?" "Hogen, are you on my side?" "Then you're ready to die with me?" "This guy is dubious." " Who's sending you, you dirty spy?" " Spy?" "How insolent!" "Kill him!" "Help!" "Intruder!" "Help!" "Don't panic!" "It's just a stroke." "Tell Jubei that we'll meet in two weeks." "Good evening." "What's on your mind, Senshiro?" "Nothing." "I was dreaming." "You were dreaming?" "You happen to have dreams?" "Dreams... it's been a while since I had one." "Good evening." "When did you arrive?" "Are you still working like a rat?" "What?" "If you enjoy this way of life, at least become a refined rat." "I'm talking to you brother to brother." "Get out of the sewers." "You look a little different." "Do you finally want to be a respectable rat?" " Stop lecturing me." " Wait!" "One last thing." "The important thing for a man is to have a good death." "How?" "Do you want to challenge the Yagyus?" "It's a little reckless." "Am I not capable of killing Jubei?" "No, that's not what I mean, but..." "We'll each bring our scroll of the Chronicles and the winner will get the scroll of the loser." "Do you think that Jubei will accept to duel you?" "Yes, if he's a true samurai." "But... wouldn't it be smarter to wait for the right time to steal his Chronicles?" "I want to fight." "Tajima Yagyu, Izunokami Matsudaira," "Great Counsellor Yabu and Fugetsusai Yamada..." "I'll risk all I got against those influential characters." "My first objective is to kill Jubei Yagyu." "Very well." "Your determination is impressive." "I didn't make a mistake when I chose you." "Bring this letter." "Our future depends on Jubei's answer." "Give it to Maya." "Jubei." "What?" "Are you here?" "I didn't think I'd see you but I have to talk to you." "What do you want to say?" "Stop behaving like a ninja." "What?" " Dedicate yourself to martial arts." " That's really arrogant of you!" "I only think of Yagyu family's welfare." "That's enough!" "What's going on?" "A dubious woman is bringing a letter." "It's a challenge to a duel." "In the name of the Bushido," "I challenge the Yagyu Shinkage school." "I, a ronin called Senshiro Otsuki, want Jubei Yagyu to duel me." "Each of us Will be able to bring one witness." "We won't use any reinforcements." "I have in my possession a scroll of the Martial Chronicles." "Jubei Yagyu will have to come with his." "The winner will get the Chroniles of the other." "I let him choose the date and the place." "I'm waiting for his answer." "I would be grateful if he gave it to my messenger." "Senshiro Otsuki" "How pretentious!" "He's really presomptuous to dare challenge you." "Let's get rid of him!" "Wait." "I have an idea." "Keep this woman here." "Treat her decently." "Jubei..." "I've made my decision." "Matajuro, do you want to be my witness?" "So you'll fight alone?" "As samurai's code of honor dictates." "I'll answer him." "You'll give my letter to this woman." "I owe you." "I'm happy to have seen you again." "Go quickly." "She's over there!" "What are you doing?" "We're following her." "Don't do it." "This behavior is unworthy of our school." "Is it an order from Jubei?" " No..." " Then go back inside!" "Get inside!" "We can't allow ourselves to make the slightest mistake." "Those last six months were fruitless and this trip was useless." "We've been given an important mission but we're about to faile." "That's why I think it's time to make a final decision." "Princess, we would like to hear your opinion." "Why do you remain silent?" "Fine." "I'll talk on her behalf." "We didn't get any result because there's a traitor among us." "Right, princess?" "Who is it?" "Our princess knows it." "You all know the fate reserved to traitors." "The princess and I will take the necessary measures." "You're the heir of the Nagai clan and you're leading our group." "I can't kill you." "You can kill yourself here or meet Senshiro one last time and kill him to regain your reason." "Wait!" "Don't go!" "Hogen doesn't care about you." "Stop trying to rebel against your boss and let's run away!" "I..." "I love you." "You're my life." "Don't go!" "Wait!" "Matajuro, if anything happens to me, try to keep calm." "It's the samurai's golden rule." " Always keep calm." " All right." "It might be the last fight of my life." "Watch carefully." "Wait!" "This way or we might run into Jubei." "He won't let us intervene." "We must take a detour." "If Senshiro and Jubei fight each other, one of them will die." "It doesn't matter who wins." "We must get the scrolls at all cost." "Listen everybody." "Jubei is an enemy of our Kage school and Senshiro killed one of us." "You must succeed." "Why did you do that?" "I'm happy... to die by your hand." "You tried to kill me?" "I came here for you to kill me." "Why?" "I wanted to put right... the mistake I made." "Poor girl..." "It must have been hard to betray your group." "No..." "I was happy." "When..." "When I was with you..." "I was happy." "Don't die!" "I can't hold any longer." "I can't breath." "Give me the deathblow." "No!" "Me... and your... your child... will go." "My child?" "No!" "Boss, give me some sake." "We were about to close." "Are you alone?" "Give me something strong." "Strong enough to consume my heart and kill me." "Hogen!" "Be careful." "You'll be sick." "I want to die." "I want to put an end to my life." "Are you single?" "I'm married... and I love another man." "But he's going to die tonight!" "He's going to die?" "He's going to duel someone." "A fight between yakuzas, isn't it?" "What?" "Between yakuzas?" "Not at all." "His opponent is Jubei Yagyu, of the Shinkage school." "Woman, are you telling the truth?" "Tasaburo!" "Jubei will fight Senshiro?" "Yes!" "You're his brother, aren't you?" "Please, help him!" "Jubei will fight Senshiro?" "Where?" "Boss!" "Some horses!" "Find us some horses!" "Will you save him?" "He must not kill Jubei!" "Senshiro, you came as agreed." "My witness will be Hogen Tendo." "Mine is my brother, Matajuro." "Here are my Chronicles." "I brought mine." "A duel will dishonour our family." "We must dissuade Jubei from doing it." "Bring me a horse." "A horse!" "You fight as well as your brother." "Consider the scrolls mine." "Braggart!" "My technique of the severed fingers." "I won." "No, I won." "Jubei!" "I'm the winner." "Coward!" "Jubei, you're a coward!" "I didn't ask them to come." "Stop!" "Jubei!" "Jubei Yagyu!" "Where's Jubei?" "Where's Jubei?" "Is seriously wounded." "Jubei..." "Tasaburo, save Senshiro!" "He's in danger!" "Tasaburo, Senshiro is..." "Stop!" "Quick!" "You're a traitor." "You must pay." "Come on!" "Senshiro!" "Stop!" "Senshiro!" " Senshiro!" " Tasaburo!" "Hogen..." "Senshiro!" "Treat his wounds immediately." "The Martial Chronicles..." "The Martial Chronicles are the cause of many deaths." "Senshiro, don't die." "Senshiro, don't die!" "Come." "Senshiro!" "Tasaburo!" "Senshiro!" "THE END"
