"bitch!" "wait!" "Kenshin." "What's the next toss?" "with a 5 and a 6." "I'll buy it!" "Cho." "it's mine!" "looks like you're out of luck today." "You've lost a few tosses in a row." "Shit!" "too!" "What happened to your predictions from Hiten Mitsurugi Style?" "None of that was right!" "Even if they are both competitions... that they are." "Sano... that is?" "this is just a game between friends using spare change." "And each is a good friend from way back." "They're all good guys." "Though they look like thugs." "Mr. Sano." "No matter how you see it..." "Mr. Sano." "that I do." "don't be laughing!" "I won't leave you unharmed!" "Kenshin?" "Sano..." "Shit!" "Where the hell is she?" "That way!" "Wait!" "cho!" "cho!" "The toss!" "6..." "D'oh!" "han!" "I won again!" "I won again!" "Kenshin!" "even if by luck!" "but..." "You are such a... you sure are spirited about this today." "Of course!" "I have a little debt to Yoita the candy-man." "And I wanted to return that money with interest today." "whatever happened to him?" "He always came running over when he heard we were gonna gamble... guys?" "Yoita passed away..." "What?" "From illness?" "The guy who had nothing but good health?" "Unbelievable!" "Tell me what happened!" "I-It was... opium." "What..." "I don't know who he got it from but apparently he was told that it would be good for him..." "By the time he realized that it was opium it was..." "Who in the world sold Yoita opium?" "Please help!" "Bad men are chasing me." "Please!" "Help me!" "Megumi!" "You can't run away anymore." "And now men?" "What the hell?" "Shut up!" "We only have business with the broad!" "You keep outta it!" "No!" "I'm pissed off right now!" "Watch what you say!" "Y-You think you can get away with doing this." "We're personal bodyguards of Mr. Kanryu!" "watch what you say!" "Henchmen of Kanryu Takeda..." "Mr. Sano." "Kanryu Takeda?" "He seemes to be a young entrepreneur." "he has a few dozen bodyguards and is doing some pretty bad business." "A shady guy." "how are you related to him?" "I really don't..." "Megumi Takani!" "W-Who is it?" "When did..." "Trying to buy pity playing the role of an innocent woman... am watching you." "and tell him!" "I will make sure I escape no matter what!" "You are so cute..." "Especially how you think you can escape it all..." "Ginji!" "Tomo!" "I will use my spiral darts to blast out both your legs." "It will double as punishment." "Wha..." "I don't understand the situation well but I can't stand to watch people who hurt others out of mischief." "S-Shut up!" "I'll get you too next time..." "Bastard!" "You dare hurt my friends!" "Kenshin sure is late..." "He must be making a fortune." "What are you saying?" "Only delinquents gamble!" "I'll give them a piece of my mind!" "It may rain blood soon..." "I'm back..." "They're back!" "I really don't understand her... welcome ba... that is." "This is a pretty run-down place." "A kendo school?" "W-Who is this?" "this is Miss Megumi Takani." "Miss Megumi is being chased by villains..." "And dear Ken helped me out." "D-D-D-D-D-Dear Ken?" "he flirted with the woman he saved." "Kenshin?" "that really is not the case here..." "Then what is your excuse?" "A-As I was saying..." "Dear Ken was so handsome when he saved me!" "Gross!" "all smitten like that!" "Such a disgrace!" "you're an idiot!" "I'm surprised." "She is such a violent girl." "Dear Ken?" "how are you related to our Kenshin?" "Dear Ken is an important person who is going to protect me." "And how are you related to him?" "H-How I am..." "I'm sure that you can't be his lover." "such a sweaty little girl can't be what dear Ken looks for in a woman." "excuse me for sweating." "What of it?" "Kaoru!" "Don't kid with her too much." "This girl here is really simple-minded." "Unlike some cunning fox woman I know." "right dear Ken?" "Kenshin!" "Stop!" "What?" "Help us!" "Please!" "We won't screw up again..." "Please!" "Forgive us!" "We'll do..." "We'll do anything!" "Hey!" "Stop!" "I guess it's my nature as an entrepreneur." "I'm uneasy if I don't immediately get rid of things that are useless." "Commander." "I am the Commander of Beshimi and his comrades." "I will not have you trying to butt in." "I-I fully understand that." "I have no complaints if Megumi comes back to me." "you know where Megumi Takani is?" "she is in a school downtown." "All right." "You and Hyottoko go and help Beshimi with his job." "Yes..." "Beshimi?" "I won't allow for any more mistakes..." "I-I will engrave that thought into my heart..." "Commander." "She is my hen that lays golden eggs." "I cannot possibly let her go." "Kanryu has about 60 bodyguards..." "But the worst are the Commander's men." "Commander?" "separate from his personal bodyguards... defenders of Edo castle gave command to a 15 year old protegy just before the Revolution..." "Aoshi Shinomori." "But if dear Ken is with me I'd feel at ease even if those guys come all at once." "that I do." "even you..." "I guess I can't stay here long..." "Miss Megumi." "Miss Megumi?" "that is?" "that you should!" "I don't want to tell you!" "Only thoughtless men pry into a woman's past!" "that it is." "missie." "Your title of Kasshin Assistant Master is shamed." "but!" "Kenshin sealed himself in a room with her as soon as he came back!" "missie." "Kenshin is strong at swordsmanship but bad at dealing with people." "Especially women and children." "but... there are limits to how good a person can be... nothing." "I'm sure Kenshin will be all right." "Probably." "I won't settle for "probably"!" "there is nothing suspicious?" "nothing for now." "Considering that we face the Oniwaban group it's better to assume that they know of this place already." "that is." "The Oniwaban group!" "right?" "Looks like this isn't over..." "I didn't want to trouble Miss Kaoru..." "But all things considered there might be one or two incidents." "Miss Kaoru." "Kenshin..." "Kenshin!" "So there's gonna be something going on?" "Y-Yahiko?" "How cruel!" "You were gonna leave me out of it?" "I'm a member of the Kenshin group too!" "The Kenshin group?" "What's that?" "They can bring arrows and guns!" "will defeat them all!" "You're pretty arrogant for a kid." "What?" "I'll get you for that!" "Yahiko!" "Oh well..." "If there's infighting the Kenshin group will face a lot of problems..." "They're here..." "Calmly give Megumi back to us." "we'll take it easy on you." "I take it you're from the Oniwaban group?" "one of the Oniwaban group!" "which one is my opponent?" "Or both of you together?" "H-He's huge!" "huh?" "leave this guy to me!" "we are facing members of the Oniwaban group." "He's not just brute force..." "I don't care what he is!" "but I accept all challengers!" "So I start with you?" "it's useless if you can't hit me!" "Sanosuke!" "you loser!" "I see you managed to escape my lethal Fire Breath." "you won't be able to evade the second one!" "Nothing less from the best fire user in the Oniwaban group... after all..." "There is nothing he cannot burn!" "that is." "Playing with fire?" "that is." "I will burn you to a crisp first!" "Idiot!" "Do you think that you can withstand it like that?" "Have a taste of this and think about who is up to little tricks!" "Kenshin..." "Where are you going?" "That man is different from Beshimi from earlier." "There is no way he can win!" "Kenshin is fighting for your sake." "It would be cruel to escape while their attention is diverted." "The Oniwaban is a group who think nothing of killing people." "They won't even have mercy on women." "You might be killed by them too..." "Kenshin will always protect me." "Kenshin is not the kind of man to break a promise." "all of the oil... that it is." "He did it!" "That man..." "You bastard!" "I'm not done!" "Kenshin!" "Sano!" "I told you to leave this guy to me!" "Thanks for the help." "but let me have another go at him." "I've filled up on oil!" "over here!" "I'm sure to make a fireball out of you this time!" "An extreme Fire Breath!" "He surely can't escape it!" "What?" "Good decision." "Easier to attack and with less harm than haphazardly trying to dodge the flames." "Sano!" "This is the magic trick?" "And now what?" "You're out of tricks." "The fight is not over..." "Piece o' cake!" "you're hurt all over the place." "He's indescribably strong..." "What in the world are those two?" "My comrades I am proud to have." "are you two all right?" "this is bad!" "It looks like he bearly won!" "It looks that way." "What!" "you're the one..." "Comrades..." "Hey!" "too!" "Shit!" "That idiot Hyottoko lost so easily..." "This is another failure!" "that broad..." "I don't know why Kanryu Takeda insists on having you back... who made me feel this way..." "Who?" "...I'll kill you!" "What?" "Yahiko!" "too." "you know." "You don't have to grin and bear it!" "show me that wound." "Don't make a fuss over me..." "Scratches like..." "Y-Yahiko!" "That's what he gets for butting in!" "That kid won't last an hour!" "Death Poison Spiral Dart!" "Beshimi of the Oniwaban group!" "I'll get rid of all of you!" "Starting with that swordsman guy..." "To think that a swordsman like you still exists in this day and age..." "We were taking our opponents too lightly." "I am sure I will be fighting you myself someday." "we'll leave the match unfinished." "He's good!" "Yahiko!" "Yahiko!" "Yahiko!" "Yahiko!" "in any case!" "Stop it!" "What?" "Don't get in our way!" "Sucking poison out of a wound causes infections and makes things worse." "Out of my way." "This is not something normal people can do." "unconsciousness... and the eyes are dilated..." "This is the poison from a thorn-apple!" "have it brought here!" "boil some water." "And bring a towel and the medicine chest." "And... go to the store and buy as much ice as you can." "What are you standing there for?" "Detoxification is a race against time!" "Hurry!" "Y-Yeah..." "That it is..." "Yahiko!" "Hang in there!" "I don't want you to die!" "By the time Yoita realized that it was opium it was..." "Why does she have opium?" "Maybe she's the one to really watch out for..."
