Sengoku Youko (戦国妖狐)

Jinka.

I'll have you out of there soon.

The battle between the Tribe of the Void's army and the Thousand-Demon Chaos is nigh.

That will be your only chance to break the Tribe's grasp on Banshou-ou.

You'd better hurry.

The final battle begins now.

Are you certain, Elder Daigan?

Yes, without a doubt.

Shakugan has awoken from her rocky prison.

I see. Where did they take Shakugan and the rest of the villagers?

After the incident,

I expanded my spirit energy in order to track them down.

Just now, I discovered a very large and abnormal land.

Almost all of that land's spirit energy was devoured by something eight years ago.

Eight years ago. Could it be?

Sensei?

Let's go, Tsukiko!

The Tribe of the Void are responsible for abducting the Katawara.

Senya and Nau must be there too.

Right!

Don't worry, Elder Daigan.

Shakugan, everyone in the village...

I'll save them all!

Your soul shines bright.

Fate will surely lend its strength to a man like yourself.

That's right.

Here we go.

I know where Jinun, Banshou-ou, and the rest are headed.

Perfect timing, too. Just as our wounds have healed up.

Let's go.

The stage of the final battle. The Dangaishuu's head temple.

T-The Dangaishuu's head temple? You're really going?

Of course.

What, are you scared?

Get lost, Tago.

We don't need you.

Don't say that, Mudo.

Thank you for showing us the way.

Farewell.

Wait.

You still owe me for the musket.

He remembered, nau.

W-Will this be enough?

Not even close! This is a kid's pocket change!

Take me to the head temple with you and I'll let it slide!

It'll be dangerous.

Then you can guard me too!

Then we'll be even!

I don't know if I'll be able to keep you safe.

The head temple is also the location of the genius researcher Yazen's lab.

While everyone is fighting, I'll help myself to all of his stuff!

It'll be scary, but as they say, nothing ventured, nothing gained!

Wait!

You guys wait here.

We'll finish the party when we get back.

Get the sake ready!

Douren! Mudo!

Thank you! Good luck!

Leave it to us!

We've rounded up the monks, High Priest.

And when will the operation take place?

Lord Douren! It's Lord Douren!

We were just about to go reclaim the head temple!

Lord Douren has the power of one thousand men!

I'm glad you're here, Douren. And who are the others?

My disciple, and Jinun's disciple, Senya.

Senya?

Do you remember me?

We met a few times when you were small.

Um... Sorry.

I see.

And that disciple is?

Is he a dragon?

Who do you think you're talking to, damn monk?

You...!

How dare you?!

What are you doing to do about it?!

Enough!

Ouch...

Fine...

Their fighting spirit is incredible.

These three have enough spirit to rival that army.

We may reclaim the head temple, but can we deal with Banshou-ou?

High Priest.

What is it, Senya?

I believe the Katawara army is being controlled by the Tribe of the Void.

That's why...

"Don't kill them."

Right?

Yes.

Avoiding bloodshed is impossible.

We've retreated this far, but there have already been casualties.

Then we must not lose another person, another body!

You're asking us not to fight?

Then what did you come here for?

To issue an evacuation warning.

Leave this fight to the three of us.

You retreat back to the village and await news of our victory.

What?

High Priest!

I'll leave it to you, Douren.

Senya. Be careful.

Escape as soon as you sense danger.

If you hope to save each and every life,

please remember to think about your own life, too.

Thank you.

I'm ready. Let's go, nau.

Nau.

Let's go.

It's a wasteland.

There's nowhere to hide.

There's quite a distance to cover,

but we have no choice.

They're here.

There they are.

Well then, just as we promised, Jinun...

The old man...

My father...

...will be defeated by whoever finds him first!

Go!

Go forth, filthy ones.

Fallen Demon Princesses!

Let's get this party started!

Water?

Give me a break. You think this will stop me?

By the way, is it true that if you eat a mermaid's flesh

you can become immortal?

Come on, you started this fight. Don't run away!

Wait, damn it!

What is he doing...

Hmph!

My spirit fur armor is in top condition.

No time to go around. I'll take them head on!

Douren...

He's heading straight into the army of Katawara.

Senya!

That was close! My tail froze!

A blizzard? This could be bad news for a Water God like you, Nau.

I'll handle this.

Yuukaikanshou!

Stop!

I'm going to melt!

A Kasha? Everyone, douse it with water!

Beware of fire!

P-Pure white...

Nau, I want to drop off this Yuki Onna.

Okay. We'll put her down there.

She's awake.

Hold me! Let me melt in your arms!

I love you!

If you're all better then you need to run away and hide somewhere.

Don't leave me down there!

Take me with you!

Sit still!

What is Senya doing?

Looks like I'll be the first one there.

Even so, how did they get all these Katawara?
