Men!

With this gentleman here,

we have nothing to fear!

He cut down five

Banki-to men in a flash!

I'm not like Father.

I won't let the Banki-to

walk all over me!

I am Toraji

of the Shirakawa family!

So drink up!

You too, Master.

Ah, Kihachi!

You brought her?

Yes.

We've been waiting!

You're one beautiful goze.

What's your name?

Ichi, sir.

What shall I play?

Great Master?

No, I know nothing of music.

Just play something.

Yes.

'Again tonight I sleep alone...

'Imagining being rocked

on my mother's knee...'

No, no, no.

Not like that.

Something with more spirit!

Something to make

this gentleman liven up.

Yes.

That's it!

Right, Master?

Kotaro?

It's me. Toma Fujihira.

Sorry! Have you

been waiting long?

Oh, Coma...

It's 'Toma'!

Toraji-san paid us well.

Did you hear me?

It was a good job.

Wear this blindfold.

Banki seems to have weird tastes.

You greedy cow.

This is business, you know.

Make damn sure

you don't touch his face.

You do, and he'll be

your last 'business'.

Master!

You haven't touched your food!

Don't you like it?

No, that's not it.

Since the Banki-to came...

the inns of Bito

have wasted away.

When Boss Chobei was well...

the place was full of life.

But at this rate

the place will die away!

But, Master, if you will just

cut down Banki...

Everyone here

is hoping you will.

So eat your fill,

and build up your strength!

Eat lots.

Lots and lots!

Where's the toilet?

Down the hall.

I can't take it any more.

It's a waste of blood.

We won't know till we try!

We should ask the Magistrate...

to send a force

to suppress them.

Is the entertainment ready?

Of course it is!

But no bureaucrat will help us.

Round up all the nobodies

you want.

They won't be a match for Banki.

Master!

It's not that way.

It's down here!

Perfect!

Father!

This is Squire Fujihira.

He's very far from being a nobody.

We're counting on you.

May I speak with you?

Banki is not

your regular bandit warlord.

He was a samurai

of good name...

recommended to the Shogun

as an Instructor of Fencing.

So what made him a bandit?

His face was burned.

He is horribly disfigured.

His appearance

was so hideous, they say...

that he was driven

from his official post.

For his looks?

The Banki-to...

suck our blood, neither killing us

nor letting us live.

But we have reached our limit.

And Banki knows that.

So then...

Although as a yakuza

I am ashamed to say it...

I am afraid.

Toraji is a dear son.

I am terrified of losing him.

I wish I weren't growing old.

Quite the guy, huh?

A father like that...

makes you want

to blaze your own trail.

Boss Chobei told me

about this secret place.
