"Unforgettable Memories!" "A Time of Birth" "There are three great powers in the Demon Realm..." "and Raizen." "and Yusuke." "challenged him to fight right from the start." "wouldn't you be better off not being so reckless?" "Shut up!" "and fight like you mean it!" "It's not training otherwise!" "There's no way I'm giving up until I put my damned old man's nose out of joint!" "And you guys are going to come at me with that same kind of determination!" "what will we do with him?" "Hmph." "Miserable die-hard." "What a disgraceful display." "how is he doing?" "Him?" "Oh... named Hiei? fighting with the subordinates." "has it been half a year already? he could be dead." "how long has it been since you became my Number Two?" "I guess." "instead of 500." "why are you so interested in this man?" "He's just an ordinary A-Class Yokai..." "Damn!" "Are we the only ones who survived?" "Let's go!" "We can defeat him if we move now!" "Wait!" "He's about to go into hibernation!" "All right!" "Let's all take him at once!" "Now!" "You're all ours!" "You guys are pushovers." "which is enveloped in thick clouds." "Hina gave birth to twins!" "One of them is a baby boy!" "What?" "Did you say a baby boy!" "?" "Abominable child!" "It is an abominable child!" "Hina had an affair with a man during the time of division that happens every century!" "dreadful young woman!" "An Ice Maiden's lifetime is infinitely long." "we give birth to a single child  without any help from anyone." "and are all female  so long as there are no relations had with men..." "A twin boy and girl...!" "This is the first time this has happened among the Glacial Village!" "what shall we do?" "and my ears heard..." "I may even have had enough power to burn alive the old women" "I heard in my ears... give me my child back!" "you have violated the prohibitions of the Ice Maidens. an abominable child came upon us." "I do..." "Baby girls are our sisterhood." "baby boys are abominable children!" "They will surely bring disaster upon us!" "I will leave the village." "I will raise the child." "give him back to me!" "We will not!" "Abominable children are cast out!" "There is a reason why Ice Maidens are forced to live their lives adrift in a wandering castle." "only boys are born to them." "brutal natures." "without exception." "It is done out of fear for the preservation of the Ice Maiden species." "I know that you and Hina are close." "there is no need for pity." "You know how many of our sisterhood have been killed by abominable children." "Still..." "You need not pity him." "Don't!" "I had the self-confidence to survive." "and I was glad for that." "I would kill all of the glacier women!" "Tch!" "That dream again?" "are you awake?" "huh?" "How about you try going one-on-one with one of the warriors directly beneath me?" "I didn't think you would progress this far in just half a year." "You're something else. you rotten monster..." "What the hell kind of Yokai are you?" "What does your face look like?" "Would you like to see?" "don't be impatient." "It's not as though I'm going to say "I am your father!" or something." "maybe it is about time for you to see what I look like." "All right." "I'm going to go bring one warrior here." "He probably has about the same level of power that you do." "I will show you what I look like." "right?" "That's right." "I always keep 77 carefully selected warriors with me as my attendants." "There isn't any deep meaning to that number..." "I just like it." "I'm going to bring one of those warriors back here." "I will show you what I look like." "I will bestow upon you his title of Warrior." "you bastard." "I don't need any title." "don't say that." "It'll be convenient for you. most Yokai will become cooperative towards you." "too." "I'll be back in five minutes." "What an utterly creepy bastard..." "He acts as though he can see right through everything... take this with you." "right?" "please take this with you." "It's a memento of my mother." "they shed one tear. and is given to the child that is born." "shed two tears. and my brother should have the other one." "You're lucky that pig bastard didn't steal it from you." "I had it hidden inside my stomach." "Why would you give me your memento?" "My brother is said to have been encircled with a fiery Yoki." "It was so bad that he couldn't be held unless his whole body was wrapped in curse-confining talismans." "That's what Rui-san said." "Rui?" "A friend of my mother." "She's the woman who tossed me." "Brother...!" "I think my brother is of a race similar to yours." "I'd like for you to give it to them." "please tell them that I am in the Human Realm." "He has to be dead." "right?" "I'm sure he's alive." "Why do you think so?" "It's something else Rui-san said." "That boy knew about us." "he will come to take revenge." "too." "Come back to us alive... would you?" "That will be all I can do to make this up to Hina." "Rui?" "You need not pity him." "If it means having to let your hearts freeze over then I'd rather I'd rather it was destroyed." "That's what I think." "Hmph..." "So that's the reason you fled from your land?" "That would mean your story about the Land of Glaciers huh?" "Listen to me." "Don't pretend to be so helpless." "do it yourself." "Don't go counting on some brother who you don't even know is alive or dead." "You're right." "You really are. he'd tell me the same thing!" "My Hirui stone has my Yoki infused within it." "even with my Jagan." "There's a pretty good chance that someone is concealing it within their stomach." "Thanks for waiting." "You...!" "Shigure!" "550)}"Shigure (Late Autumn Shower)" "Since when were you one of Mukuro's men?" "Since right after I performed your Jagan transplant." "You know each other?" "that's all." "I also showed him the barest forms of swordsmanship." "It appears that he has polished that into a form of his own." "I see." "I am surprised." "Did I really perform an operation on you?" "The Jagan transplant alters ones abilities... it signifies a rebirth." "one's spectral power sinks down from its previous level to that of an infant. reducing you from an A-Class Yokai down to the lowest level of Yokai." "To think that you would appear before me with even greater spectral power..." "You truly surprise me." "Hmph." "Is that right?" "I became as strong as you are?" "It appears that you've already located the Hirui stone you were looking for." "This one isn't mine." "Ho?" "That would make it your sister's stone. it means that you have found one of the things you were looking for." "That sounds interesting." "Tell me more. he requested that I perform a Jagan transplant on him." "Two?" "where his sister was." "that was a memento of his mother." "I judge whether or not I accept such requests based on whether or not" "I am drawn to the life of the patient." "I take a part of the patient's life afterward." "The fee for services that I accepted from him he could not tell her that he was her brother." "I will return to you your payment for services! I never intended to reveal who I was in the first place." "The heart is a variable thing." "that's enough reminiscing." "A fight is a fight." "You will stake your lives." "regardless of one's capabilities. the journey taken by both sides blossoms and scatters like fireworks." "Begin!" "Hiei's hidden past has become more and more clear." "Standing before his eyes" "Shigure!" "this inevitable battle is speeding him toward his fate."
