"Episode 18" "Episode 18" "Episode 19" "everyone!" "Please hurry!" "This is not war." "It's a rout." "Beasts who reject King Arthur's infinite mercy and dare to oppose us at least you can enter Nirvana in an instant through Ganapati's generosity!" "fire!" "Chandra Gupta's Giant War Armor from the Star of the West has begun to unleash its superior firepower to invade Takeda's lands." "Only the sorrow of the powerless people has been left in its wake." "Adjusting ley line reactor by 0.4." "Visibility is high near planned landing site." "t-minus 8 minutes until drop." "All men on combat standby." "Nobu..." "Ichihime-sama!" "This is..." "Takeda's banner." "Ichihime-sama..." "Ichihime-sama!" "Ichihi—" "It can't be!" "What child's play." "It seems assuming control of the Pillars of Hercules will pose no trouble at all." "Now that one looks like a worthy foe." "But given its spindly build..." "Battles are not won through size alone." "What?" "How did you—" "You will never reach enlightenment." "I can offer you..." "Expiation." "What is that?" "A murderous intent that threatens to overwhelm everything..." "How intoxicating..." "What?" "!" "Lord Kenshin has fallen?" "!" "my lord!" "Takeda's castle is lost." "Their lands are in ruins." "There is utter devastation." "Ichi..." "How could the mighty Lord Kenshin have been defeated?" "Who're we up against?" "I can only think of one man who could have defeated Uesugi Kenshin." "A man who is capable of conquering entire continents..." "Alexander and the embodiment of his ferocious spirit" "Gaia." "What power!" "Submit to me." "I am not here to end lives." "Will you use that strength to serve King Arthur?" "Submit?" "Inconceivable." "If I submit to you" "I can no longer fight you." "The terror that grips one's heart..." "That holds a blade to one's throat!" "I had all but forgotten it!" "This is what I consider an ideal battle to be." "I can never submit!" "As long as we are locked in a battle to the death it cannot end until one of us has spent his life force!" "Clashing with an overwhelming power then to finally perish!" "The joy of it!" "The sheer bliss!" "A warrior as mighty as you must understand!" "I cannot." "What?" "I have never experienced the fear of death in battle for I have yet to meet a foe against whom" "I would need to exert myself to the utmost." "That is most unfortunate." "I have yet to find the limits of my power." "Then I swear an oath to you that I will allow you to savor the joy of a true battle." "You're a strange one." "I will remember your name" "Uesugi Kenshin." "Do not forget to fulfill your oath." "Indeed." "I will not." "You'll take up the brush before war begins?" "Apparently you have some time on your hands." "I am not in a position to take up the sword." "Even should someone hold a blade against me" "I would still continue my own research." "Your words show quite the commitment." "What's this?" "Perhaps it can be called..." "the order of the universe." "It's good work." "Oh?" "You'd call unfinished work "good"?" "If you can't judge something with an uncertain future that means you can't take the measure of a man who still lives." "Some things are clear only when the future is not." "That may be true... an unclear future only creates greater uncertainty just as in you right now." "after all." "You're a shrewd man." "If doubt has taken root in your heart take a card." "Knowing yourself may clear your uncertainty." "I see..." "The Emperor." "The doubt that now fills your mind stems from overwhelming authority and power." "Alexander of the West is indeed capable of becoming an emperor." "I know." "A man capable of defeating Lord Kenshin no doubt." "without King Arthur" "Alexander would have conquered the Star of the West and become its king." "I will not retreat." "Facing him is an unavoidable battle if I am to rule heaven and earth no matter what sacrifices will be made." "I see." "I must report to Nobu right away that he must never engage Alexander in battle." "That man is a demon that will devour heaven and earth... is that you?" "You knew I was here?" "You just have a loud presence." "So mean." "too." "That was uncalled for!" "What do you want?" "It's not like you." "What?" "The leader should just look forward without hesitation." "His men merely follow him." "I think that's what Mitsu would say." "Letting doubts creep in because you've lost one man just isn't like you." "If you feel uncertain or even three men." "Is that not good enough?" "you talk big for a monkey." "I see." "in this way." "The Star of the West has summoned the Pillars of Hercules seized control of Yomotsuhirasaka and now seeks to use that as a base for conquering the entire Star of the East." "But the West had an ulterior motive..." "The lands where dragons dance have great power!" "When five points are linked the great Holy Grail will appear among us." "What is going on?" "What?" "The dragon of this star..." "This is..." "I see." "There they are!" "Ichihime-sama!" "Don't let them escape!" "After them!" "Crap..." "Ichihime-sama." "We will take you to Nobunaga-sama without fail." "even if it costs our lives." "Everyone..." "Mitsuhide?" "Mitsuhide!" "Ichihime-sama." "I am glad you have safely returned." "I would endure any disgrace to return to your side if it would allow me to protect you." "Mitsuhide..." "I'm so glad." "And what of Caesar-dono?" "Was he not with you?" "Are you worried about Caesar-dono?" "He is not an evil man." "He has remained on the Star of the West saying there was something he had to do." "I see..." "There is nothing to concern yourself about." "He is a shrewd man." "I am certain he has a plan." "Th-That's..." "Alexander!" "the..." "Don't say it." "I've never felt such oppressive force before." "He's mine." "Here I come!" "Azuchi preparing to enter combat-mode." "Deploying stabilizers." "activated." "Standing by in launch shelter." "The dragon of the East." "Nobu!" "You must not fight Alexander!" "He is completely ignoring me." "The arrogance." "I am not sure it is wise to let him face Alexander by himself." "too!" "Wait!" "Nobunaga wants to have a duel with the commanding general." "But..." "I have faith in him!" "I am afraid?" "Impossible!" "What's the matter?" "You won't attack me?" "Destroyer-King." "the louder its bark." "Nobu!" "What?" "!" "He intercepted Nobu's sword just using his fingertips!" "You're all show and no substance." "You're just like a child." "Silence!" "Let it resound like thunder!" "How absurd!" "then?" "be like fire!" "Futile!" "How tiresome." "No!" "That power would lay waste to the entire region!" "My betrothed!" "You must fall back!" "You are not even worthy of being the opening act." "Nobu!" "Nobu!" "Mitsu!" "Ichi!" "Why?" "!" "the Destroyer-King?" "I pity Uesugi Kenshin." "Gaia is absorbing the ley lines from the ground itself." "the planet could die!" "I'm going out." "I have to protect everyone!" "wait!" "lend me your Regalia." "Give this to Nobu-sama." "Understood." "Not yet." "I still don't have enough." "as well." "You must not!" "Activating four Regalia at once will be too heavy of a burden!" "Just give it to me." "this whole region will be blown into pieces!" "There's no other choice." "I am Oda Nobunaga." "Regalia of earth give me strength through our bond!" "Nobu!" "The Regalia won't activate..." "What is going on?" "!" "It can't be..." "Is the Regalia trying to devour my betrothed's very life?" "How pathetic." "Regalia that surpasses its wielder's capacity will destroy their mind and body." "and die!" "Nobunaga!" "The dragons in the earth are going berserk!" "this land... this star... will die!" "Nobu-sama!" "for you are worthy of having your life ended by me" "Destroyer-King!" "I will not let you kill Nobunaga!" "take Nobu-sama and run!" "I will hold him here!" "Hideyoshi!" "Bastard!" "Surely you can sense the difference in our power." "Why struggle so?" "Duh!" "It's because Nobu-sama's here!" "Nobu-sama is capable of ruling over heaven and earth!" "He won't lose to a low-life like you!" "you still choose to bluster?" "Monkey." "Hideyoshi?" "It is an honor to be dealt death by mine hand." "Savor it well." "Hideyoshi!" "Monkey... retreat." "Monkey will forfeit his life if we don't." "In honor of the idiot who chose to risk his life on his faith in you" "I will let you live this time." "I will not forget this humiliation." "Hideyoshi!" "no." "The rampage is causing the ley lines to run amok!" "This place is lost." "The Destroyer-King..." "The pitiless wheel continues to turn without end." "Its shaft has been broken lost without an axle." "Next time:" "The Wheel of Fortune." "Who will answer the dragon's question?" "0000"
