Fires were called “The Blossoms of Edo."

But the fiercest fire in Ed was ”Furfsoo'e Fire, ”

which was started from a burning “furisode“ kimono

at a town girl's funeral, and carried by strong Winds.

At about the same time, in Marijuana, Ed castfe,

a conspiracy that shook Japan was in progress.

THE MAN VVITl-l TVVO FACES (Fujitsu no Kano no Tokyo)

It should indeed come to an end.

To repair this corrupt administration,

this person must be removed.

Jiroemon is right.

All the loyal men from the previous Shogun's time

have been torn away from Shogun letsuna's side.

If Lady Honri-in wasn't around,

he would appoint himself as the Shogun.

Elder, you make it sound so easy,

but the one we're dealing with is...

That's just it.

He's a very careful man.

We just have to find an opportunity in the castle.

With Lady Honri-in's approval...

I myself will kill him.

Good for you!

If you, the Shogun's fencing instructor, wish it,

it's as good as done.

No!

I appreciate your concern for the country,

and the Tokugawa family, but...

Puckish Diagonal (Great Councilor) is related to the Tokugawa.

If you spill blood in the castle,

it will undermine letsuna's authority, and spread chaos.

Then what do you suggest, Lady Honri-in?

Well...

Lady Henri-in Takako came from the noble Takatsukasa family in Kyoto,

and was the widow of third Shogun, lemitsu.

A fire...

It's burning furiously.

Your Excellency.

Mother! - It's not good for you to be here.

But, when I think of the people who've lost their homes in this fire,

I despair of my weakness, unable to do anything.

L-low I wish I could truly run this government,

for the sake of my nation and my people.

Your Excellency...

As the saying goes, know heaven, the land, your people.

Your love of the people will bear fruit someday.

Your Excellency, the fire is approaching the castle.

What? Will it burn down the castle?

Please move to the Nishinomaru Wing for now.

All right.

Fourth Shogun letsuna was the son of lemitsafs concubine.

Sickly as a child, he was unabie to properly administer government.

This pui him in the hands of a few key vassals,

and this worried Lady Henri-in Takako.

Everybody! The fire's spreading this way!

Please get out! Quickly!

Calm down! Panic, and you'll get hurt!

Han! Put out the fire!

It's not that easy!

What bad timing!

THE CASTLE STOREHOUSE

Get going! - Move it!

Get going!

Close the doors! - Closing the doors!

Intruders! Stop them!

What's that commotion?

Please, don't budge from this room.

Intruders!

Marume Sagan...

Ironmonger...

You've become over-confident.

You must be Lady l-lonri-in Dakota!

I have come for your life!

Damn you!

MY |ad¥ Please! Run! Quickly!

Sir Ono!

Protect our lady!

Lady Honri-in!

Lady Honri-in!

Lady Honri-in!

Lady Honri-in!

The fire burned down a third of Ed,

and killed over 100,000 people.

The Shogunate gave food and shelter to its victims,

trying to help them,

but chaos gripped the city.

The police are here!

More of them are coming!

Living alone, on the edge...

The first crossing of the River Styx...

Give your regards to the Lord of Hades.

Will it go well? Oh, no.

Everybody, step aside now.

Hurry!

Everybody! We brought you some rice-balls!

Don't fight now!

Don't worry, you'll have two rice-balls each!

I see you're all eating!

The bath will be ready soon! You can freshen up!

Han, hovv about a rice-ball? - Thanks.

Dear Han, my future looks bleak.

This won't bring my business back.

The fire spread to the Shogun's castle,

and the former Shogun's wife burned to death.

I'm too young to see the end of the world.

Ma'am, don't lose heart.

We're here to help you.

Ma'am, we're here for you.

I'll help you, too. - You've got us.

I hear you! You're all kind people!

But can we live on kindness alone?

You're eating well enough.

Ma'am, Ivlenukiya is here!

He brought bodyguards. - He's here already?

The money-lender? - That's right!

I haven't paid last month's interest yet.

What can I do?

Ma'am, lie down.

You want me now? So early in the day?

Don't be silly! Just lie down.

Some blankets! Quick!

Ma'am, just play dead.

Don't move a muscle.

Everybody! Start crying!

Hey!

ls the Madam in?

Who are you?

I am Menukiya Sunrise.

I'm here to make the monthly collection.

That's unfortunate for you.

As you can see, the fire took her last night.

She's dead?

She couldn't get out in time.

And she was so good!

Please, pray for her repose.

And please, leave some condolence money.

Surely you jest! Are you her clerk?

Yes, I'm Han-ko, the charcoal burner.

I see...

Listen!

You'll have to pay 8 yo in full within three days.

Otherwise, Surat-no-yew bath-house will be mine.

But that's unreasonable!

Are you refusing to pay?

No, but...

we can't afford to pay it.

Don't joke with me!

Oh, Han!

L-low dare you strike him'?!

So, you are alive!

Demon! - Madam! Stop!

L-low dare you try to trick me'?

Now, you have three days to pay me!

Three days! Got it?

SHADOW WARRIORS III

Hyobu, is it true the intruders were after Lady Honri-in's life?

Yes.

But why would they want her dead?

What a terrible calamity

She wasn't the type to incur such rage.

Lord Amatory, did we find her body'?

The bodies were reduced to ash,

so we can't identify them.

By the time I rushed in,

the place was a sea of flame.

I am certain Lady Honri-in has died.

The intruder was skilled enough to Kill Ono Ironmonger.

He couldn't have been an ordinary man.

Hyobu, you saw the intruder, didn't you?

Tell us what you can.

Yes.

Any detail, however small, will help.

It's useless to question him.

He's a hopeless fool who couldn't protect the Lady.

I doubt he can recall anything about the intruder.

You're a disgrace to the Minamoto.

If I may speak,

I heard Ono Ironmonger call him by name.

What? Who was it?

Marume Sagan.

Ivlarume Seigan? That's the name Ono called?

Yes, sir.

The swordsman named Marume Sagan,

served as fencing instructor to Puckish clan.

He was dismissed three years ago, for misconduct.

He has no connection to the Kishu clan today.

Then who hired him, and who's pulling his strings?

If Ivlarume was the intruder,

it must be a hidden conspiracy to entrap me.

A conspiracy to entrap you, the Lord of Kishu?

You, who let Lady Honri-in die in the castle,

and let this Marume Sagan escape, can't be forgiven!

Slit your belly at once!

Yes, sir.

Lanolin...

I must assume responsibility for this incident...

and com m it purse.

I've failed to protect the Shogun's castle from fire,

and I've let Sir Ono die, and Marume Sagan escape.

So, I must be punished.

They won't let you strike back at Seigan?

Humiliated as I am, I can do no more.

I will die with you.

NO, I forbid it.

Why?!

There's a reason why I escaped from the fire.

I bring you a message from Lady Honri-in.

From Lady Honri-in?

That's right.

ls Lady Honri-in alive?

Lady Honri-in thinks very highly of you.

So do I.

This may be a mission more painful than dying.

Will you fulfill it, for our country and our people?

Lanolin, please.

Do you understand?

Yes.

KISHU CLAN'S UPPER MANSION

It's been three years since I left the clan...

Now I've found a fire, to burn the whole country.

We must remove all obstacles now,

or the Shogun's post won't fall into Kishu's hands.

Your name came up in our interrogation.

You must act with extreme caution.

Have no fear.

By the way, my lord...

there's a serious problem. Lady Honri-in is alive.

What?

Sagan, is this true'?

Yes.

As the fire subsided, I searched the room.

I found a secret passage.

Secret passage?

That means Ivlakino Hyobu lied, at Lady Honri-in's order.

We must prevent his purse...

and question him again.

Lanolin!

Finish me!

Hurry!

Lanolin!

Burglars!

Burglars!

I assumed it was your work.

Are there more?

Yes, it's selling well.

Why make products just to help the rich?

Because they have the money.

Money isn't everything!

What else is there?

Well, you could help the needy.

They're not my problem.

You're a cold fish.

I have my passionate side.

Care to try me?

You're disgusting!

Now here's our signal.

She's pretty.

She's samurai class.

Must have her troubles.

What is your request?

Well... - No, wait.

Let me guess.

To stop your husband's fooling around?

No.

To cure an illness?

I want to take revenge for my late husband.

A vendetta?

I want help with it.

Will you help?

Sir Shouni?

No need to ask twice.

Were you to ask me to hand you the sun,

I couldn't possibly refuse.

However...

Depending on your story, my fees may vary.

I'll pay you a thousand yo.

A thousand!

SHADOW WARRIORS III

See Han-KO at Surat-no-yew bathhouse in Nfhonbashf.

Out of my way!

Oh, I'm sorry!

I was in a hurry, I'm so out of breath!

Get away!

Han!

Forget the fire and come in here!

Han!

Yes! Did you want me to wash your back?

I've been waiting! Hurry!

Han!

I'll do your back.

Hey! Han!

What a pest!

Don't say that.

Oh, you heard? Sorry.

Han, there's a woman here to see you.

What? A visitor?

With a hood on... She's not just pretty,

but she's very striking.

Oh, really?

Miss, please excuse me.

Come back quickly, now.

She's pretty!

Are you Han-ko?

Are you the boss?

No, I'm just a messenger.

Where is the boss?

We've never seen his face.

We have to do all the talking.

He's an arrogant guy.

Please pass on a message, then.

I want to avenge my husband at all cost.

My enemy is a famed swordsman.

No ordinary man will be able to defeat him.

What is his name?

Former fencing instructor to the Puckish clan...

Marume Sagan.

Ivlarume Seigan?

He's a tough one, all right.

An awesome swordsman from the Taiga bloodline.

You know a great deal, for a stoker.

He's famous isn't he?

I've heard a lot of stories about him.

I wish to hire your boss to help in my vendetta.

If a thousand yo isn't enough, I'll pay more.

All right. I'll give the boss your message.

For tonight, please go.

So, you're an lag ninja, after all.

Who are you?

Tell your chief...

If he wants to live, just stay out of this.

Insects should know their place in life.

Such an interesting device.

Can this tell you his location?

If you blow the whistle within 12 miles.

He's about a block from here.

A lumber yard?

Chief!

I found out who she is.

Makino Lanolin.

She's the wife of Makino l-lyobu, a Minamoto samurai.

She used to serve Lady Honri-in.

Lady l-lonri-in strongly opposed Puckish Diagonal,

who wished to make his son the Shogun.

I'm told she may have been assassinated

on the night of the fire.

If the assassin is Marume Sagan,

that would explain it.

What's wrong, Sasuke?

Chief! I just bumped into Marume Sagan.

Ivlarume Seigan?

Where?

He showed up when I was tailing the lady.

He's warning you to stay away.

He had a killer's smell about him,

it froze my blood.

Our opponents are worth our high prices.

There's someone behind this Lanolin, as well.

Who is it?

I can't tell.

Whoever it is, he knew enough to send her to me.

SHADOW WARRIORS III

Are you Ivlakino Ivliyuki?

I am Marume Sagan, former fencing instructor

to the Puckish clan.

Tell me, is Lady Honri-in alive?

Or is she dead?

Answer me.

Answer me...

or you will die!

Where is Lady Honri-in?

She will be here soon.

Don't trifle with me.

So, the insects have arrived.

Taiga men, fight us!

Marume Sagan!

Are you Tara l-lanzo'?

Hanzo...

Don't start a fight you can't win.

I'll challenge you.

Lady Honri-in!

Lanolin!

I followed your orders.

Well done.

My body is steel...

My mind is empty...

Evil shall be destroyed!

Chief! - I'm ab' right!

Wait a moment!

Are you the lag chief, Tara l-lanzo'?

You fought well tonight.

Hanzo, let us have a long talk.

Among these grieving, nameless graves.

All of you, go.

Let's go.

Will you help me?

Help you?

Shogun tunable is sickly,

and cannot properly attend to governing.

There's no one in the cabinet to support him.

This can only cause chaos in our country.

I've succeeded the will of my late husband, summit.

But the key vassals that I counted on for help,

have all fallen to the Puckish lord's conspiracy.

I have left the castle, to fade into the earth...

so that I may help the country and its people.

But, I need your help.

Sadly, the lag ninja were deemed useless

in this time of peace, by the Tokugawa Shogunate.

My comrades and I only care about money.

Earlier you said your mind is the air.

Your lack of desire for money and power,

enabled you to defeat Sagan.

You must have the same burning desire I have.

You fought magnificently against Sagan.

Do the lag ninja burn to fight evil'?

The heart of the ninja is the heart of the blade.

The lag ninja will take orders from no one.

No one can buy us, never again.

If you will excuse me now.

Hanzo!

I will abandon hope of controlling you.

But I still believe you will stake your life

for the love of our country and its people.

All right.

But, whether to help or not, will be my decision.

And some day, some time...

I may yet become your enemy.

When that day comes...

l'll be sure to kill you all.

When you're done, be sure to pay your rent.

I know.

If my house hadn't burned, I wouldn't rent here.

So, why not go back to Kamigata?

That's too bad for you.

Look, I bought you goldfish.

L-low cute! They swim so gracefully.

It's spring already

Why are you talking? Will you get to work?

If you don't work, you'll be fired!

That mean debt collector will be coming.

Okimi!

We can't live on goldfish! Just throw them away!

But... - Just do as you're told!

Don't get excited because he touched your bottom.

Ma'am! The goldfish!

What?

They're gold coins!

Our goldfish turned into gold coins!

Gold coins?

Mimi, get every bucket we own!

We're going to catch more! Hurry!

Mimi, what do you think you're doing'?

I'm going to catch some big goldfish!
