Lone Wolf and Cub

Hurry up and catch it! Hurry!

Just be quiet!

Just hurry up and catch it!

Kanjyo Style

Hold it!

Lord Ogami!

I'm amazed you were able to split this stick in half.

We just wanted to test your skills as an assassin

before we hire you for a large sum.

I hope you can understand.

Please forgive our rudeness.

And who is it that you wish me to kill?

A senior statesman. Lord Yamashironokami of Kuze.

Plus everyone who serves under him.

Furthermore, the men of Kurokuwa.

The men of Kurokuwa?

Indeed.

The men of Kurokuwa are spies for the government.

If we don't do something, it will be

devastating for our Iwakidaira clan.

At Sukagawa in Mutsu, there is a placer for the government.

That gold is then carried to Edo gold foundry by passing

through the Oushu Highway.

Our clan is located off the highway, so we were not involved

with their gold business.

However, this year, they changed their route.

They decided to pass through our clan's territory.

And the reason for that is they want

to pay our sick lord a sympathy visit.

But his illness is not that serious.

Also, it is unusual for the lord

to accompany them while they transport the gold.

Everything they do is unusual.

Then there's only one ulterior motive for the government.

They plan to start an incident within our territory

and have someone attack their lord.

They will blame the Iwakidaira clan for letting their guards down.

Then they will confiscate our territory.

I want you to kill the lord before his men get into our territory.

Kill every single man.

You mentioned the men of Kurokuwa...

Yes.

The ones who will get into our territory

and attack the lord's procession.

That duty is accomplished by the government spies also known as

the men of Kurokuwa.

I want you to kill anyone who supports this scheme

and destroy all the evidence.

But...

Even if the government does not succeed with their plan,

they will not give up that easily.

I'm positive that they will keep coming back for more.

One day, you won't be able to fend off their attacks,

and they will end up seizing your territory.

I think this is totally useless.

Lord Ogami.

Are you familiar with the term, "Kanjyo"?

"Kan" means shield.

Yes, "kan" does mean shield.

A shield used to protect a castle.

Even if we know that a castle is about to fall,

we as samurai cannot neglect our duties to

protect the castle, and just watch the castle being taken over.

We will do whatever we can, even if we go down in defeat.

Even if you know that the castle is about to

fall, you're still willing to die for it?

Indeed.

I accept your offer.

Kanjyo...-"

Hold it!

Where are you headed?

To the charcoal lodge.

Charcoal?

A woodcutter and a hunter. What an odd combination.

We're just passersby.

You're not from Iwakidaira.

Don't be ridiculous.

Why would we be walking within this

territory if we're not from Iwakidaira?

You people live around here?

You people live around here? Yes.

Drop your goods.

Lord Yamashironokami of Kuze and his men

are going to enter this territory tonight at seven.

The lord already knows that we, the

men of Kurokuwa, are going to attack.

The men of Kurokuwa serve under the shogun, and they usually

carried the shogun's sandals or helped out with transporting goods.

But that's not all they do. The government possessed a dark side,

and they were acting as their shadow.

They do whatever it takes to get the job done.

Words such as unnatural death or cruelty applies to samurai.

But the men of Kurokuwa are not samurai.

We will attack them, but not too quick.

Make it look like we're after their gold.

I don't care if you kill two or three of his men.

After you attack his men, we will be

routed by Lord Yamashironokami of Kuze.

Listen. We're supposed to be thieves.

Lord Kuze and his men will pass through this shore by Myojin River

before heading into our territory.

I want you to kill every single one of them.

I could kill twenty men.

But if I miss even one of them,

then this job would not be accomplished.

Hey, can we get into Iwakidaira's territory by seven?

Yes, I'll tell them to hurry.

Hurry LIP!

Government Duty

Where's ltto?

They will soon be in the Iwakidaira territory.

What is ltto planning to do?

Men of Kurokuwa... They're really clumsy with their plan.

Is this within the territories of Iwakidaira?

No, we're not inside the territory of Iwakidaira.

Who could that be?

You insolent fool! I'm a chief retainer for the government!

Stop!

Protect the gold! Stay in your positions!

You brute!

Men!

Kill this bastard! Guard the gold!

Insolent fool!

Kanjyo style...

What?

You insolent fool! Is this how you treat a government officer?

I'm Lord Kuze, the senior statesman for the government!

Assassin "Lone Wolf and Cub" is here.

What?

Kanjyo style...

Kanjyo style is a form of Chinese military tactic.

Soldiers lure the enemy guards from the castle

and bum down the castle by setting it on fire.

One must put his life on the line in order to annihilate the enemy.

Daddy!

Lord Ogami, have you gone mad? Sending Lord Kuze's helmet with

the coat of arms to Iwakidaira...

Settle down!

The Kanjyo style is not yet finished!

But now we'll have to deal with the men of Kurokuwa.

Then we'll have to fight with you.

Did you not tell me to eliminate all the men of Kurokuwa?

Your job is to defend the castle.

Get out of here!

Itto Ogami!

You did this?

We, the Kurokuwa, kept thinking that your feud with the Yagyu

was none of our business.

But after learning that you killed a government officer,

we have no choice but to be your enemy!

Itto Ogami...

Daddy!

The person who killed the men of Kurokuwa

is ltto Ogami!

Hanroku left us a message before he died.

Itto Ogami killed the men of Kurokuwa.

He also killed a government official.

Itto Ogami. Remember that name.

We will get our revenge.

We'll kill him, even if we have to travel to the depths of hell.

We won't be satisfied even if we kill him many times.

Daigoro...

Daigoro!

My son!

I thought my dead boy came back to life.

I know it's impossible, but...

What's the matter?

Where are you from?

Where's your mother?

You got separated?

Are you alone?

What is it?

Oh, that.

So you were hungry?

You can have them.

Little boy.

If you're hungry, you can come to my place. Okay?

For daddy!

What?

Little boy! Come back!

Daddy!

Daddy!

This boy...

This boy got those rice balls for you.

Daddy.

Hey, come and play with us.

Come play with us.

What?

Itto?

Now is the best chance to attack.

No.

That man is not easy to kill.

I heard he killed many of the Yagyu while he was poisoned.

Haste makes waste.

Haste makes waste. But if his wound heals...

I'm not saying we should fight him fair and square.

We, the Kurokuwa, are not like the Yagyu.

There's no need to pocket our pride and show off like a samurai.

But ltto Ogami has one weakness.

We have to go after that weakness.

His one and only weakness.

DO you get it?

Across the mountain and across the river...

I can hear you. We can see you and your arms.

We can see your eyes.

Where have you been?

What have you been doing?

Oh, you got me at last!

Now I'm going to get you all! Come and get us if you can!

Sorry for the trouble.

That boy used to glare at me whenever I asked him something.

But look how happy he is now.

We're leaving now.

Already?

Who's the one with the mask?

That boy will be leaving today?

He was looking forward to going to the village festival.

Another child will be coming here soon.

He said he will wait for that child to go to the festival.

Daigoro.

My lord.

Thank you for everything.

I know it's difficult to buy kindness with money, but...

My lord, please stay two or three more days.

Daigoro looks exactly like my dead son...

Daigoro has to travel with me.

But...

Let's go to the festival!

Let's go to the festival! Yeah! Let's go!

My Lord, please let him go to the festival!

Hey, let's go to the festival!

Go with them.

"We have your child.

"Later on in the day, we will burn your child alive.

"The time will be the same time as yesterday

"when you slew our men at the riverbank.

"The place is Gojingake.

"At the appointed time, you will hear the tolls of a temple bell.

"We will set fire after the fifth toll of the bell.

"I have provided you with details of

where you can observe the execution.

"Kurokuwa."

Isn't Daigoro back yet?

I took my eyes off of him for a second, and...

Thanks for everything.

My lord!

Those men of Kurokuwa are cruel!

I can't believe they took an innocent little boy as a hostage.

It is our fault that we got you into this mess.

I know it is too bold to do you a favor,

but tell us what we can do.

It's just that I don't know this area

too well, and there isn't much time.

Tell me howl can get to Gojingake.

Well, I'm afraid it's impossible for a person like

yourself who is unfamiliar with this territory to get there.

Lord Ogami.

You can count on us.

We, the Iwakidaira clan, will be happy to help.

You risked your life to save our clan from the government.

This is the least we could do for you.

No, thank you.

We have traveled the path to hell. This does not concern you.

That's Gojingake.

There's only one road that leads to Gojingake.

This is a great place to camp.

With their backs to the cliff, one can

take out a hundred men from here.

That's why Gojingake means "camping cliff."

You can leave this to our clan. We can use our rifle squad.

There's no need to fight them hand to hand.

If they throw that torch,

Daigoro will burn to death.

Lord Ogami!

All or nothing!

That kid doesn't even scream or cry.

When I see him staying calm like that, it really gets me irritated!

We'll set the fire when that bell rings for the fifth time.

Can you count to five?

Five. After the fifth bell.

Little punk! cry!

Cry for us!

Soon this flame is going to burn you to a crisp.

Aren't you scared?

You're going to die!

That's the second one.

Is he coming?

Is Ogami really going to come?

He will!

Maybe he chickened out.

He will come.

Itto Ogami chose the path of an assassin for his son.

500 ryo for each kill.

He saves that money and sends it to the government to settle

the score with the Yagyu.

He raises his son to be his successor and revive the Ogami clan.

Itto Ogami will not stand by and watch his son burn to death.

Third one.

That kid isn't scared at all.

He doesn't even cry or scream. He just stays still.

Don't let your guard down! Be on the lookout for ltto!

The reason why that boy doesn't cry or shake with fear

is because he believes his father will come for him.

Itto is definitely going to come!

Fourth one...

Daddy!

Stay where you are, ltto!

I'll burn him alive if you even move a muscle!

We poured plenty of oil on that tree.

Your son will never make it out alive!

Itto! Drop your sword!

Itto! Go to your son!

We're going to burn you too! You and Daigoro can go to hell together!

The Ogami clan is finished!

Go to your son!

Hold it!

Take your hands off of that carriage!

Itto!

Push down that carriage this way!

Shoot him when I throw this torch.

Jump! Daigoro!

Jump!

Hurry!

Daigoro!

Itto!

I promise you that the men of

Kurokuwa will send you to hell!

Even if I die, the others will get you...

The man of Kurokuwa's last words resounded in Itto Ogami's head.

While having a feud with the Yagyu,

"Lone Wolf and Cub" now must face the men of Kurokuwa as well.

Their long path to hell just got even harder than before.
