[00:02] Fugen
    Hey, Bo, do you remember?
[00:05] Fugen
    That time we took Kokin
    and went on a little adventure?
[00:10] Taikobo
    Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about that.
[00:14] Taikobo
    But why bring that up?
[00:16] Fugen
    We put a sleeping drug in
    Master Genshitenson's food,
[00:19] Fugen
    stole Kokin, and went
    to play in the human world.
[00:24] (Flashback) Both
    Goodbye!
[00:35] Fugen
    I was just reminiscing a little...
[00:38] Fugen
    Really, I was thinking about how nice
    those days without any fighting were.
[00:45] Fugen
    Anyway, are you hungry?
[00:47] Fugen
    Bunchu will probably be showing up soon.
[00:49] Fugan
    Let's have a snack while we wait.
[00:51] Taikobo
    Oh, sesame dumplings!
[00:58] Taikobo
    All right! Let's go, Fugen!
[01:01] Taikobo
    Wait... Huh?
[01:03] Fugen
    Sorry, Bo.

[03:02] Bukichi
    Master!
[03:04] Taikobo
    Looks like everyone's watching.
    This is a great opportunity!
[03:05] Bukichi
    Master!
[03:07] Taikobo
    I'm gonna show them how powerful I am!
[03:15] Kokutenko
    Things have gotten interesting,
    haven't they, Shinkohyo?
[03:18] Shinkohyo
    You still don't get it, Kokutenko.
[03:20] Shinkohyo
    It's my policy to make things even more fun.
[03:25] Shinkohyo
    We'll go and watch after
    I've made a few preparations.
[03:29] Kokutenko
    Preparations?
[03:33] Tenka
    So that's Taikobo?
[03:36] Hiko
    Yeah.
[03:36] Tenka
    I had heard about him,
[03:39] Tenka
    but this will be my first
    time seeing him fight.
[03:43] Koyuken
    Get back, everyone.
    I can handle him on my own.
[03:57] Koyuken
    I am Koyuken, one of the four
    Shisei of Kuryu Island.
[04:01] Koyuken
    Taikobo of Konron, you will fight me.
[04:05] Taikobo
    H-Hang on! I have one question!
[04:08] Taikobo
    I heard that you once fought Dakki.
[04:10] Taikobo
    Dakki is my enemy too,
[04:12] Taikobo
    so can't we join forces and
    take down Dakki together?
[04:16] Koyuken
    I'm afraid not.
[04:17] Koyuken
    You are an enemy of Master Bunchu.
[04:20] Koyuken
    I have reason to oppose you for that.
[04:22] Koyuken
    Besides, I'm having fun! I haven't
    cut loose like this in a long time!
[04:27] Taikobo
    Crap, he's not going to back down?
[04:30] Ri Koha
    Damn, that looks like fun!
[04:33] Ri Koha
    I want my turn to fight soon, too!
[04:37] Taikobo
    We won't have a chance to
    fight back at this rate!
[04:40] Ohma
    There's no need for all of
    us to fight these guys.
[04:45] Ohma
    Koyuken! Ri Koha and I
    are moving out to attack Seiki.
[04:50] Ohma
    You and Yoshin can finish off Taikobo!
[04:54] Taikobo
    Seiki?!
[04:56] Ohma
    Take care of the rest.
[04:57] Yoshin
    Sure.
[05:00] Nataku
    I'll go after those two.
[05:02] Nataku
    That one is the strongest of them.
[05:05] Nataku
    I can smell it.
[05:09] Taikobo
    We'll chase them, too!
[05:11] Taikobo
    Up, up, down, down, left,
    right, left, right, B, A!
[05:13] Supushan
    I don't know what you're saying!
[05:15] Koyuken
    It's no use.
[05:34] Bukichi
    Master!
[05:38] Ri Koha
    You know, Ohma...
[05:40] Ri Koha
    Master Bunchu told us to kill
    the Buseioh and his group,
[05:43] Ri Koha
    but he didn't say anything
     about destroying Seiki.
[05:46] Ohma
    Only incompetents don't take
    the initiative to go above and beyond.
[05:48] Ohma
    We will destroy Seiki for
    Master Bunchu, who loves Yin dearly.
[06:02] Ri Koha
    Leave this one to me.
[06:03] Ohma
    Right.
[06:04] Nataku
    Hold it.
[06:06] Nataku
    You're the one I'm after.
[06:16] Ri Koha
    Got a problem with fighting me?
[06:20] Nataku
    Interesting. I'll take you out
    first, then go after him.
[06:31] Yozen
    You there.
[06:34] Ohma
    You...
[06:35] Ohma
    You're... You're the genius Doshi, Yozen!
[06:39] Ohma
    You came down here, too?!
[06:42] Yozen
    You'd best turn back, Shisei.
[06:45] Yozen
    Or are you really so intent
    on rushing to your death and wasting
[06:49] Yozen
    your thousand years of kung fu training?
[07:03] Koyuken
    One down.
[07:05] Koyuken
    Now, who's next?
[07:16] Bukichi
    Master!
[07:19] Koyuken
    How are you still alive?!
[07:20] Taikobo
    Ha, ha, ha! Not good enough!
[07:23] Taikobo
    Leaving water beneath me is
    like giving me a free escape route!
[07:27] Taikobo
    Ha, ha, ha!
[07:28] Taikobo
    Now this is where it gets real.
[07:31] Taikobo
    If you use that same move at this
    distance, it'll hit you, too.
[07:35] Koyuken
    Close quarters combat? Actually...
[07:38] Koyuken
    That's exactly what I want!
[07:44] Taikobo
    It won't come off!
[07:45] Supushan
    What?!
SIGN    HAKYU HOSHIN ENGI
SIGN    Choka
[07:58] Bunchu
    What are you doing here, clown?
[08:00] Bunchu
    I have no intention of fighting you.
[08:03] Shinkohyo
    Oh? I see you know your place, Bunchu.
[08:07] Shinkohyo
    I do like that about you.
[08:09] Shinkohyo
    But you see, I came to let you in
     on a little something.
[08:14] Shinkoyho
    The Shisei intend to attack Seiki as well.
[08:17] Bunchu
    Don't be foolish. I ordered them to
    kill Hiko before he reaches Seiki.
[08:21] Shinkohyo
    That's true,
[08:23] Shinkohyo
    but Ohma is currently fighting
    him in the skies over Seiki.
[08:26] Shinkohyo
    There will be civilian casualties.
[08:29] Shinkohyo
    You don't wish to stop him?
[08:32] Bunchu
    Is that true?
[08:36] Supushan
    Master!
[08:38] Supushan
    If that doesn't come off,
    you'll drown in a very silly position!
[08:41] Supushan
    How pathetic!
[08:47] Supushan
    Master!
[08:49] Tenka
    All right, then. Let's go!
[08:54] Yoshin
    Chi!
[09:01] Hiko
    Tenka!
[09:04] Koyuken
    Hey, Yoshin. It's wrong to kill
    people who aren't Sennin or Doshi.
[09:11] Koyuken
    I mean, I've done it too, but...
[09:12] Yoshin
    This isn't good.
[09:14] Yoshin
    Our paopei techniques are too broad.
[09:17] Yoshin
    They're perfect for destroying
    large armies or fortresses,
[09:20] Yoshin
    but when the target is small, it's impossible
     to keep track of in the midst of this.
SIGN    Seiki
SIGN    Choka
[09:29] Ohma
    Yozen...
[09:31] Ohma
    Defeating you would make me the
    most famous of the Shisei.
[09:35] Ohma
    And...
[09:36] Ohma
    It would bring even more
    glory to Master Bunchu.
[09:39] Yozen
    Listen, why don't we refrain
    from fighting here?
[09:44] Yozen
    If we fight here, the people
    of Seiki will be in danger.
[09:47] Yozen
    I've heard you Shisei use
     rather grand techniques.
[09:50] Ohma
    All the better.
[09:54] Ohma
    I'm here to destroy Seiki anyway!
[09:57] Ohma
    Go, Kaitenju!
[09:59] Yozen
    No!
[10:05] Ohma
    Did you see that, Yozen? You're next!
[10:16] Yozen
    You're taking this game too far, Ohma.
[10:20] Ohma
    Intimidation?
[10:21] Ohma
    Am I actually letting him get to me?
[10:25] Yozen
    If that's really your intention,
[10:26] Yozen
    I'll just have to fight so
    as to minimize the damage.
[10:30] Ohma
    Y-You really think you can manage that?
[10:35] Ohma
    If you think you can, then just try it!
[10:47] Ohma
    I did it!
[10:50] Ohma
    I killed Yozen!
[10:52] Yozen
    Listen well, Ohma.
[10:54] Yozen
    That explosion was caused
    by me destroying Kaitenju.
[10:57] Ohma
    Y-Yozen?! Where are you?!
[11:00] Yozen
    Very close to you.
[11:02] Yozen
    I'm disguised as one of your Kaitenju.
[11:03] Ohma
    What?!
[11:05] Ohma
    Don't lie to me!
    All of these Kaitenju are real!
[11:09] Ohma
    They move as I will them to!
[11:11] Yozen
    Of course. I've transformed to do just that.
[11:16] Yozen
    This is my transformation technique.
[11:18] Yozen
    My true power.
[11:21] Ohma
    Then I'll figure out whether they're
    real or not by destroying Seiki!
[11:26] Yozen
    Too bad.
[11:35] Yozen
    You see now?
[11:38] Ohma
    Again...
[11:39] Yozen
    Ohma.
[11:41] Ohma
    I can't face Master Bunchu again
    if I let it end like this!
[11:44] Yozen
    I do admire your spirit,
[11:47] Yozen
    but it would be best to give up and go home.
[11:50] Yozen
    This is my final warning.
[11:53] Taikobo
    S-Supu...
[11:56] Supushan
    Wh-What is it? Your last words?
[11:59] Taikobo
    Beesh...
[12:00] Supushan
    Beesh?
[12:03] Taikobo
    Beesh!
[12:05] Koyuken
    What are you—

    into top quality liquor.
[12:23] Taikobo
    I have to say, your technique
    was quite delicious!
[12:29] Koyuken
    You defeated my technique
    with a move like that?!
[12:37] Tenka
    I need to take you guys out fast,
[12:40] Tenka
    or I could lose what matters most to me.
[12:44] Koyuken
    Very well. Let's take this fight seriously.
[12:47] Koyuken
    Yoshin, heal me.
[12:51] Yoshin
    Hekichiju, share with me
    the power of the earth.
SIGN    Koyuken has been healed
[13:03] Taikobo
    Impossible!
[13:05] Tenka
    Taikobo! I'll help you, too!
[13:08] Taikobo
    Right!
[13:19] Yozen
    What is this sensation?
[13:22] Ohma
    I-It's... It can't be...
[13:26] Yozen
    Wait!
[13:28] Yozen
    The air is trembling...
[13:30] Yozen
    with great power, and great anger.
[13:37] Yozen
    Nataku!
[13:38] Nataku
    Aren't you...
[13:39] Yozen
    Let's go.
[13:40] Yozen
    Taikobo is in danger!
[13:43] Supushan
    Master...
[13:45] Taikobo
    Be careful, Supu.
[13:47] Taikobo
    You feel that intimidating
    sensation, don't you?
[13:50] Supushan
    The air feels prickly.
[13:53] Taikobo
    Has he already...
[13:56] Taikoho
    Oh no! I'm not ready for that!
[13:59] Ohma
    Koyuken! Yoshin!
[14:01] Koyuken
    Ohma?
[14:02] Yozen
    Taikobo! Are you all right?
[14:05] Taikobo
    Oh, Yozen! It's been a while.
[14:07] Taikobo
    But that aside...
[14:08] Yozen
    Yes, I've never met anyone who gave
    off such an intimidating aura.
[14:13] Nataku
    This one...
[14:14] Nataku
    is even stronger than me.
[14:30] Taikobo
    What is this?!
[14:42] Hiko
    Bunchu!
[14:47] Bunchu
    Child's play.
[14:55] Bunchu
    Are you Taikobo?
[15:01] Shinkohyo
    What do you think, Kokutenko?
[15:03] Shinkohyo
    It's even more interesting now, isn't it?
[15:06] Shinkohyo
    Bunchu's paopei, Kinben, is a simple attack
    that hits enemies within a few kilometers.
[15:13] Shinkohyo
    And that's exactly what makes
    it a challenge to defeat.
[15:20] Kokutenko
    Shinkohyo, you have too much free time.
[15:24] Bunchu
    Taikobo, why are you trying to destroy Yin?
[15:28] Bunchu
    You're just like Dakki.
[15:30] Bunchu
    You're trying to control the human world
     with the power of Sennin and Doshi.
[15:34] Taikobo
    You're wrong!
[15:35] Taikobo
    The reason I'm gathering allies
[15:37] Taikobo
    is to expel all the Sennin and Doshi
    who serve Dakki from the human world!
[15:41] Bunchu
    Then...
[15:43] Bunchu
    Why are you trying to destroy Yin?!
[15:46] Bunchu
    Would defeating Dakki alone not be enough?!
[15:49] Taikobo
    That's what I thought, too!
[15:50] Taikobo
    But things aren't that simple anymore.

[15:55] Taikobo
    If things go on like this, it's inevitable
    that the Four Lords will revolt.
[16:00] Taikobo
    And if war breaks out,
[16:02] Taikobo
    there'll be even more casualties
    at the hands of Sennin and Doshi.
[16:06] Taikobo
    We're on the brink of a war as it is.
[16:08] Taikobo
    The people of the nation desire a new king.
[16:12] Taikobo
    And so...
[16:13] Taikobo
    I must at least get rid of all
    the Sennin and Doshi in Yin!
[16:18] Bunchu
    If Yin improves, the problem will be solved.
[16:21] Bunchu
    That means defeating Dakki!
[16:22] Taikobo
    It's too late for that!
[16:24] Taikobo
    King Chu has already lost the people's trust.
[16:27] Taikobo
    You know that!
[16:28] Bunchu
    It's not too late!
[16:29] Bunchu
    Yin will be reborn again and again!
[16:39] Bunchu
    Hiko!
[16:41] Taikobo
    Hang in there!
[16:42] Hiko
    B-Bunchu...
[16:44] Hiko
    It's true that the king is still the king,
    even under Dakki's control.
[16:50] Hiko
    But does that really justify all this?
[16:53] Hiko
    Don't you get that there are more important
    things than protecting some rotten country?!
[17:01] Hiko
    Come with us.
[17:04] Bunchu
    Shut up!
[17:06] Bunchu
    Traitor!
[17:09] Bunchu
    I'll finish you!
[17:10] Tenka
    Stop!
[17:12] Tenka
    Stop it, Grand Preceptor Bunchu!
[17:14] Tenka
    I won't let you take this any further!
[17:17] Yozen
    Grand Preceptor Bunchu.
[17:19] Yozen
    I apologize for using
    our numbers against you,
[17:22] Yozen
    but we can't afford to lose Taikobo now.
[17:24] Nataku
    You guys are in my way. I can—
[17:27] Bukichi
    I'll protect my master!
[17:30] Bunchu
    It doesn't matter how many of you there are.
[17:32] Bunchu
    If you want to speak of ideals,
[17:34] Bunchu
    you need the strength to back it up!
[17:38] Bunchu
    And none of you have that!
[17:58] Ohma
    Master Bunchu is amazing...
[18:01] Bunchu
    Shisei, finish them.
[18:03] Shisei
    Y-Yes, sir!
[18:06] Taikobo
    W-Wait.
[18:10] Bunchu
    You can still move?
[18:11] Taikobo
    I-I won't let anyone be killed!
[18:20] Yozen
    Taikobo...
[18:23] Yozen
    He's protecting us with a wall of wind.
[18:27] Yozen
    Honestly... I can't believe you.
[18:31] Yozen
    You really are someone...
    I can entrust with my heart...
[18:43] Bunchu
    Such a large whirlwind can't last long.
[18:47] Bunchu
    But...
[18:52] Bukichi
    Master!
[18:53] Supushan
    Master!
[18:54] Supushan
    Thank goodness!
[18:56] Supushan
    If you'd never woken up,
    I don't know what I would've done!
[19:01] Taikobo
    Supu... Bukichi...
[19:04] Ki Sho
    Taikobo, Yozen informed me of what happened.
[19:09] Ki Sho
    I'm glad you've returned alive.
[19:11] Taikobo
    Bunchu...
[19:13] Taikobo
    He was fighting for Yin with all his heart.
[19:17] Taikobo
    I assume something happened in
    his past that led him to swear loyalty to Yin.
[19:22] Taikobo
    His conviction is unbreakable.
[19:25] Taikobo
    In that case, why am I fighting?
[19:36] Taikobo
    The Kyo...
[19:38] Taikobo
    Oppression...
[19:39] Taikobo
    Death...
[19:41] Taikobo
    Isolation...
[19:42] (Flashback) Old
    Are you angry, Lord Ryo Bo?
[19:46] (Flashback) Old
    Do you want revenge?
[19:48] (Flashback) Old
    Don't bother. It's no use.
[19:53] (Flashback) Old
    Unless everything changes,
    this will go on forever...
[20:04] Taikobo
    I...
[20:06] Taikobo
    will create a safe human world.
    One without Sennin or Doshi.
[20:15] (Flashback) Bunchu
    You would keep using your paopei
    until you cough up blood,
[20:18] (Flashback) Bunchu
    Taikobo?
[20:22] (Flashback) Bunchu
    You are too great a man to give to Seiki.
[20:29] Taikobo
    I don't remember anything after that.
[20:33] Shukotan
    Taikobo.
[20:34] Shukotan
    We of Seiki have made up
    our minds to fight against Choka.
[20:38] Shukotan
    Recently, one of the Shisei attacked Seiki,
[20:43] Shukotan
    and we lost good people that day.
[20:45] Ki Sho
    We cannot overlook the atrocity
    of involving innocent civilians.
[20:49] Ki Sho
    No, even if we remain silent,
    the people will not!
[20:53] Hiko
    I'd like you to include
    us in this conversation.
[20:57] Ki Sho
    Now, this is reassuring!
[20:59] Hiko
    We're all yours, Ki Sho.
[21:01] Guy
    Yeah!
[21:02] Guy
    We'll help with anything!
[22:37] Ohma
    Master Bunchu...
[22:39] Ohma
    Why didn't you kill them?
[22:42] Bunchu
    I was only repaying a debt.
[22:44] Bunchu
    Sennin and Doshi power was used
    against the people of Seiki, after all.
[22:49] Bunchu
    That sin can never be fully atoned for.
[22:52] Ohma
    We took things too far.
[22:54] Bunchu
    What's done is done.
[22:58] Bunchu
    I will return to Choka.
[23:00] Bunchu
    Things will be very busy soon.
[23:02] Koyuken
    Master Bunchu...
[23:03] Bunchu
    Shisei.
[23:05] Bunchu
    The upcoming battle will
    be even more violent.
[23:07] Bunchu
    I'll need your help again. Get healed.
[23:10] Shisei
    Y-Yes, sir!
[23:12] Bunchu
    He fights for Seiki, and I for Choka.
[23:15] Bunchu
    We've chosen opposite paths,
[23:18] Bunchu
    but both will be difficult...
[23:21] Bunchu
    Taikobo.
