This is all we have?

We're a school.

You said you were a resistance.

Hmm.

In progress.

That's why we need you.

Hmm.

We're not prepared for this. We'll be slaughtered.

Perhaps we give them what they want. Protect the village.

That is not an option.

The longer they stay here, the less likely we leave here alive.

No one is leaving anything.

The girl came here for protection. So, we make a stand and fight.

He's here! The Dark General, he's here!

We thought they'd never find us. We were wrong.

We have little time now.

Are you sure he'll take the bait?

He will.

For all our sake, I hope you're right.

If not, I fear this day will end as it did all those years ago.

Ya- Yassan!

Saki, what's wrong?

- Get out of my head! - Saki!

Stay back.

The Daimyo is reaching out to her on the Astral Plane.

To do what?

The Daimyo is from the ancient times.

Even someone like her cannot live forever.

Saki's powers can rejuvenate her, helping her live another century.

Saki.

How do we stop it?

She must be using the Dark General as a conduit to connect to her mind.

How much time do we have?

Not long.

I may be able to assist, but she will have to fight this herself.

She's not ready for that.

You're no match for him, Yasuke.

Not with the Daimyo's dark magic on his side.

Will your men be in position?

They'll make it.

Bring her back.

I will.

Saki.

Help me!

Today, we fight for the future of Japan.

The village will not surrender to people like you.

I wish to settle this.

The old way.

Yasuke,

I should have killed you along with Nobutada,

but I granted you mercy that night.

Mitsuhide, what has become of you?

There's still time for you.

We can unite and save Japan from this horror.

You continue to follow the false teachings of a dead man.

Look at yourself.

It is the Daimyo that feeds you these lies.

She has twisted your soul and turned you against your own people.

It was Nobunaga who turned his back on our people when he took you in!

I helped liberate them from his toxic ways,

and now Japan lives.

Japan lives in fear.

The Daimyo's reign is hell on earth.

You don't know hell, but I will show you.

But first, I will break your spirit.

Then your body!

There is no honor to be had here.

Only pain and blood.

You stormed our gates with the enemy.

Your betrayal ate away at Nobunaga's heart.

He's dead because of you.

Or is he dead

because his loyal servant chopped off his head?

Saki.

I'm cold. I can't move.

It's okay. I'm going to get you out of here.

Are we…?

We are in the Astral Plane. A spiritual place between life and death.

What's happening?

Saki, I need you to listen to me. What happens next will be painful.

It will feel like being ripped in half.

You'll need to concentrate and try to keep yourself together.

I don't understand!

You don't have time to understand.

Morisuke.

You will not claim this child.

I already have.

The devil reveals herself from the shadows.

Just as the sun sets, darkness falls.

It is neither good nor bad, just the natural order of creation itself.

And now that balance tilts towards the night.

I am the dark.

This child is under my protection.

You shall not have her.

Is that all you got?

Perhaps your body will break before your spirit.

The old way does not suit you.

It never did.

You're right.

The old way does not suit me.

That's why I lied.

- What? - Now!

What is this?

You flanked us?

You were stalling?

Finally, a challenge!

Help me!

Hold on, Saki!

Your magic is impressive for a mortal,

but this is only your first visit to the Astral Plane.

I was trapped here for hundreds of years,

molded by it.

Saki, can you hear me?

I am communicating to you through a telekinetic link.

What is happening to me?

The Daimyo is absorbing you into her astral force.

When complete, your power will become her power.

What happens to me?

You will cease to exist.

Please, Morisuke. Help me!

I do not have the power to help you. She's too strong.

Only you can defeat her.

How? I can't move!

You are in the metaphysical world.

You don't have to move.

You are connected to all living things.

Their power is an extension of yours.

Tap into it.

I'm scared. I can't do this.

Yes, you can. Free your mind.

I can feel it.

Huh?

So, you learned how to tap into the life force.

And now I will defeat you!

Little girl.

You still have so much to learn.

Hmm…

We can help them.

It's too dangerous. If we lose you, we lose everything.

There's nothing we can do.

Maybe there is.

What is happening to me?

No. No, no. No!

Go through the mountain. Blast through the mountain!

It seems the Daimyo's dark magic no longer courses through you.

I don't need her magic to defeat you, servant!

Don't look surprised.

You really thought you could outmaneuver me in battle?

Now this village will fall, just like all the others.

No one can withstand our might.

Ice cold.

Please, no.

I hate to interrupt this dance,

but if you don't mind, I brought a lady to cut in with.

No holding back for once.

This I like.

Change to pulse rounds.

Affirmative, pilot.

It's over, Mitsuhide.

That's not my name, servant.

I am the Dark General!

The Black Samurai.

You will always be a servant,

no matter what armor you wear.

I serve no man.

Yassan!

You made it.

I went to a place called the Astral Plane.

It has colorful clouds and stars and black holes.

Wow.

Thank you for your assistance.

Where's the money we were promised for helping?

Hmm?

What money?

The girl spoke to us in our heads,

told us to come here and help fight, and we would be paid double our rate.

There's a lot we must catch you up on.

I'm sure we could come to some agreement.

She's so tall.

And strong.

So, you're a samurai?

Yes, I am.

A Black samurai?

And here I thought I'd seen it all.

Not bad, Chernyy.

Not bad at all.

Will you shut that thing up already?

The trackers indicate incoming.

Look for yourself, my friend.

Everyone is dead.

We killed them. Wouldn't mind doing it again, if you ask me.

Friend is a word used to describe someone you're happy to spend time with.

Yeah. I guess you could say that.

I enjoy killing people with you.

I guess that makes us… friends.

Hmm.

Yes, friends.

Okay, you're malfunctioning again.

It's fine. We all have our problems.

Readings indicate multiple targets incoming, and fast.

Where?

It should be here right about… now.

Do you see anything yet?

Ishikawa!

What was that? Rust Bucket, what's going on over there?

Huh? Ishikawa?

Friend?

Friend, sensors indicate that you are dead.

Is this a malfunction, Ishikawa?

l…

Cover!

- Are you okay? - Yes.

Friend.

Huh?

What?

Close the gates.

Haruto, come. The gates are closing.

Let's go, big guy!

No, Haruto!

Self-destruct sequence activated in

ten, nine, eight…

We have to get Saki to the temple.

This is no time to pray, old man.

It seems you made Daimyo very mad.

…four, three, two, one.

Goodbye, friend.

Let's go.

Nikita!

Let's see how many of you I kill.

This is not a plan, Morisuke.

We have to get out of here.

The Daimyo will never stop.

The Dark Army will always return as long as she lives.

Take this secret passage. It will lead you out past the ridge.

- From there, you must go to- - I know where to go.

Of course you do. Take the girl.

No, she stays.

- You can't defeat her. - I'll figure it out.

She's too powerful. You'll die. We'll all die.

When we were on the Astral Plane,

Saki drove the Daimyo back.

She has the power to defeat her.

She's our only hope.

There's no turning back once we leave.

All right, let's go kill a witch.

No, I need you to stay here and help defend the women and children.

Sorry, old man.

I don't do chains and dungeons.

I'll triple your rate.

You two kill the witch lady.

After all,

I believe that children are the future.
