A battle sword indeed.
You have such a good sword.
I'm taking this! Hey, hey, hey! Why don't you say something? If you don't say something, I'll cut off your son's head! I heard this Goumori posting station is located in a remote, hot-springs resort but it works well for your body.
Well, whatever.
Even if you decide to leave now, we won't let you! You saw us kill that guy! Come with me! Move! You're one unlucky guy, you know that? You two came to take a bath in hell You've got some guts.

She's not responding.
Oopsie daisy.
Help me! Come on! Come on! He says he wants to take a bath, so I brought him over.
He saw us killing Minokichi.
We can't just let him go.
I took away his sword, and he'll do anything since he's with a kid.
It seems like I've met you somewhere before.
Well? I somehow recognize him but I don't recognize you.
I see Maybe I mistook you for someone else then.
But it doesn't seem that way.
I thought he would be good since he has a dotanuki but he was distracted by the cup I threw at him first.
He's no good.
Listen up! If you defy us in any way, you and your kid are gonna get daggers in your throats! All right! Take them to the bath hut! Yes.
Come on! He's really good.
That man What? He wasn't perturbed by your throwing daggers and he just sat there.
No, it's his eyes.
He was looking calmly at you as if he was looking at water.
At least he's more talented than you are.
All right then! Stop it, Monnosuke! Mr.
Shigarami.
You're saying that my throwing daggers had no effect on him? I didn't say that.
It's just that he was looking at you with frighteningly calm eyes.
I just described things just the way it was.
Fine! If what you say is true, then I'll go see how good he really is! Monnosuke! Boss, you should let him do as he pleases.
If he's that good, then it will make things difficult for us.
We better take care of him soon.
Daddy! Where's your wife? Did she leave you? Ronin like you can't make much money.
That's why your wife left you.
Why don't you just get rid of that kid? You must be crazy to take that kid along with you! You can probably tell by now that we're wanted criminals.
If you defy us, then you know what happens, right? Get in! Hey! You got a new guest! Hey, old man! He just might be willing to help you farmers! You should ask him to help you.
Get in! This place is small enough as is.
Plus he's got a kid.
What if the kid wets the bed? The futons are He's probably better than your monkey.
He pees all over the place.
What did you say? I trained my Taro really well, you know! At least he's not a prostitute who spreads filth like you! Now, don't get so angry They say that meetings by chance are the result of karma.
Excuse me Yes, the person that just came here.
I see.
Looks like you're a samurai.
I can tell by your smell.
Well, do you want me to give you a massage? Don't listen to what he says, mister.
He'll pick your pocket while pretending to massage your shoulders.
If you fall asleep, he'll even try to cut your throat! What are you talking about? You're a crook too, you know! You stole my tobacco pouch last night, didn't you? That's Jirokichi all right! He's a professional thief, you know.
You see, I'm a high standing High standing yakuza? Please.
Stop this already! Why did I end up here? There are guards, so I can't just flee.
There are two samurai here, so I thought they could be helpful.
But one's sick and the other one has a kid! I have such bad luck! You're right, Kinpachi.
Why is everything so bad in this world? You're already bad to begin with! Damn you! How dare you pick on a poor, miserable man like me? Stop yelling! You bastard! Stop it, you two! Hey there! Such an innocent kid.
You're almost there, almost there! I want to fight you! Get up.
Get up! Get up! Why you! Get up! Get up! Get up! I see.
You don't care what happens to your kid, huh? If you won't fight me, then I'll just kill your kid! Wait! What? Why don't you stop fooling around.
Who would be stupid enough to fight criminals like you? It's like tossing away your life.
Even though he looks like a worthless scum, he's still a samurai.
You think a samurai like him can say he doesn't want to fight or cry "help me" and ask for mercy in front of us? That's why he has his eyes closed, willing to do things as you please.
Give him a break.
Plus you're trying to make him fight by tormenting the kid.
Don't you think that's a bit immature? Well, well.
You make witty remarks for a prostitute who steals from others.
All right.
I'll let him off the hook.
But you have to make love to him.
What did you say? Make love to him! We'll watch you do it in front of us! That's a good idea! That'll be quite a sight! Stop fooling around! I won't do such a thing! Osen.
Selling your body is what you do.
You pretend to fall for a man and steal their money pouch.
Why don't you show us that great technique? No way, you bastard! Yo u' I' e 'awn 9 h Q$ Even if it means death! Even if it means death! I see.
Then, die! Are you gonna do it or not? Kill me.
I'm not scared of that thing! What? Why you! Wait! Don't tell me you're going to I see.
If you don't mind a woman like me She looks like a virgin! She's probably feeling like a goddess of mercy by helping him! Wet goddess of mercy! Yeah! This is hell Hell on earth Amitabha Buddha, Amitabha Buddha, Amitabha Buddha Stop that, you stupid priest! If you keep praying like that you're gonna make me feel sad and hopeless! Even if we keep going like this, it's still hell on earth.
Hey, when those people leave what's going to happen to us? We're the only ones residing in this hut but they have dozens of farmers at this posting station.
You don't think they'll kill them, right? No, I think they're going to slaughter them.
It can't be! Why is that? As you can see, they're all wanted criminals.
The reason why criminals like them came to a remote place like this is to spend the cold, winter months here and to stay out of sight until rumors about them die down.
I don't think I need to tell you this but they consist of thieves, murderers and ronin and vagabonds who have been accused of arson and kidnapping women.
An ex-convict who was released from prison thinks it's easier to get the job done with other criminals.
They're just a group of outlaws! It's like they came straight from hell.
Plus there's a bounty of several hundred ryo on all their heads.
Which means they're all worth lots of money.
But you know something? I heard this from a traveling medicine merchant before coming here.
He said that an Eto clan is after their heads.
Eto, the zodiac animals like rat, cow, and tiger Among them are a samurai, a ronin and even a priest and a yakuza.
But they're very skilled and killed all the wanted criminals so far.
We also have a priest, yakuza, and a samurai.
Plus a ronin as well! But you people are useless! Why am I so unlucky? Hey Taro You're the only one I can count on.
Right, Taro? We'll die together.
Sorry for giving you so much trouble over the years.
Kinpachi, you still have me.
When you die, I'll die with you too! Shut up! If I die with you, I'll never be able to rest in peace! Get away! Idiot! I said go away! You grim reaper! I'm begging you! I'm just a miserable blind man! Please help me! Hello? Master samurai! Master ronin! Please! Even if everyone else dies, I still want to live! Please Master samurai! Master ronin! Please! Stop wasting your time! Stop harping on like that! Besides, that ronin has feels no shame! You saw him before, didn't you? He had sex, just like they told him to! A man without any shame is much worse than that monkey! Shut up! Don't be cheeky! Genji right? Who do you people think you are? You're just a yakuza who teamed up with thieves! What did you say? I was planning on biting off my tongue and dying! But he understood what I was feeling.
That's why he did a shameful act by making love to me! Isn't it touching? In order to save a woman like me this samurai threw away his vanity and pride and made love to me.
You see, I Don't let it go to your head! There's plenty of samurai who sleep with prostitutes! And how many of them risk their own lives to save the life of a prostitute? But you know He slept with you because he wanted to live! You just don't get it, do you? Why don't you ask yourself? What? When you're shaking with fear and wanting to live do you think you can make love to a woman? Can you do it? Master samurai! Please! Please! Where do you think you're going? To take a bath.
Fine.
Go purify yourselves before you die.
This place is called Goumori posting station.
But they all call it Koumori (bat) posting station.
Do you know why? Bats live where people can't see them.
They hide out in the dark shade of trees, or inside a cavern quietly.
People who were displaced from society come here to seek a brief moment of comfort.
That's why this place is called Koumori posting station.
But those wanted criminals aren't bats, but wolves with fangs.
They'll even kill bats like us in order to survive.
So they stay here until there's nothing left to take.
They plan on staying here until they're satisfied.
Until there's no bat left in this place.
How long have they been around? About half a month They arrived right after we did.
But there's nothing you can do.
Folks are all afraid, so they won't lay a hand on them.
Farmers tried to negotiate with them.
But now, they're just waiting for them to leave here quietly.
They're also bats.
It's no use kicking against the pricks.
That's how bats live.
But you can beat them Hey, could you possibly be Why did you come to this Goumori posting station? I just came here for a bath.
No.
You're no ordinary man.
You're not afraid of those criminals even a bit.
Are you the "Lone Wolf and Before I came here, I heard there's an assassin named "Lone Wolf and Cub" But that can't be.
I mean, why would the "Lone Wolf and Cub" work for the government to take care of wanted criminals, right? Little boy.
I'll wash you.
Come here.
You're pretty heavy.
Aren't you scared of those criminals? I'm not scared of them.
I'm not afraid to die.
A woman like me gets miserable as I age, so I don't care when I die.
Boss, what's going on? It's pretty late.
Well All right.
You tell him.
Yes.
I was ordered by the boss to check out the posting station at the foot of the mountain.
And I heard something shocking from one of the officers there.
That officer knows we're here at this Goumori posting station! How? You see After investigating why he wouldn't come for us, I found out that members of the Eto clan are here to claim the bounty placed on our heads! The Eto clan? That's right.
Eto clan killed every wanted criminal so far.
And six of them.
Six of them have slipped into this place! Six? That's right.
Who are they? That samurai with the kid! Maybe so.
But there are five others.
That bath hut! That place only has outsiders.
Those bastards are trying to claim our heads by pretending to be visitors.
Kill them! I don't care if it's a man or a woman! Kill everyone in that hut! Fine! I'm afraid we can't do that.
Bastards! Calm down! We're the Eto clan and we're here to claim your heads.
Don't make any noise! We were going to cut off your heads tonight.
But we changed our mind.
I see.
Why? Your heads are worth 10 ryo each.
Even if we collect all your heads, it's only 200 ryo.
But if we kill that ltto Ogami ltto Ogami? You mean that former executioner? That's right.
That ronin who came to the bath hut with his son is none other than ltto Ogami! I never expected to see him in a place like this.
To see that ltto Ogami in a place like this My lord! I heard that ltto Ogami had a feud with the Yagyu clan and was relieved of his position as an executioner.
He now wonders around from one place to another as the assassin known as "Lone Wolf and Cub".
"Lone Wolf and Cub?" I see.
I knew I recognized him from somewhere I guess that's because I heard about the "Lone Wolf and Cub".
Nevermind what this "Lone Wolf and Cub" has to do with you.
What does he have to do with us? Well, you see Rumor has it that ltto Ogami makes 500 ryo per kill.
Killing ten makes him 5,000 ryo, twenty makes him 10,000 ryo! Even if we kill you all, we would only get 200 ryo.
Then we should work together to get our hands on tens of thousands of ryo.
Don't you think that's better? Hold it.
But where's all that money? Plus if he made so much money, then he doesn't have to wander around as a ronin.
He and his son can live happily for the rest of their lives.
He needs more money to defeat the Yagyu clan.
What? At least 50,000 ryo No, he needs several hundred thousand ryo to get influential pull from the head of government.
Then he'll finish off the Yagyu clan, and ask the government to revive the Ogami clan.
Even if he dies in the process, he has his son to take after him.
I see.
So he needs the money to defeat the powerful Yagyu clan.
Even Shogun are influenced with money these days.
It's possible.
But what are we going to do? He's a skilled swordsman who was also feared as the executioner.
How are we going to kill this ltto Ogami? Let's hear what you people have to say.
What are you going to do with that? What are you going to do with that? It's all set.
Wait and see the results! Here we go! You need a hunter's drum for beasts.
Candy man's drum for kids.
Battle drum for warriors.
Performance drum to attract customers.
Playful drum for a libertine.
Here we go! You need a hunter's drum for beasts.
Candy man's drum for kids.
Battle drum for warriors Here we go! It worked! Come on! Okay, now! Daigoro! Daigoro! Master ltto Ogami.
Long time no see.
You may not remember me, but I have not forgotten about you.
You made my young lord hold a fan against his stomach in front of me and decapitated him with your Dotanuki.
We're going to decapitate your kid to avenge the death of our lord! But in the difficult world we live in, we can't make money by avenging someone.
If you hand over the money you made from your kills, we'll just let bygones be bygones.
What do you say? Tell us where you hid the money! Even if you kill me, but lose your son in the process, your earnest wish won't be achieved! You can always make more money! You have no chance of winning! What do you say? You don't care if we decapitate your son? We don't care about life and death.
Even if we lose our lives right here, we're already prepared to die.
Why you! You think we're bluffing by saying we're going to kill your kid? Fine! We're going to kill him Wait! Let the kid go.
Are you serious? I said let him go! Master ltto Ogami.
We won't ask you to tell us where the money is.
What? But your head If I take your head, then it will be worth a lot of money! I see The Yagyu clan will pay us a lot of money for his head.
I didn't realize that! His head will be worth a lot of money! We are bounty hunters anyway.
It suits us better! Ikkaku Shiasu of the Mugai style! We'll finish this off with our skills! Jyosui Minazuki! Jinza Shimotsuki of the Kangetsu style spear attack! Ukyo Jyuro! Tanba Samidare! Ginji of Keima! Nyudo Sara'.
! Sakon Shigarami! Monnosuke lzumi! Suiou style ltto Ogami! Bunch of weaklings! Kill him! Why you! Daddy! Daddy! So he was the "Lone Wolf and Cub" after all.
Earnest wish of the "Lone Wolf and Cub" is too severe and far from being achieved.
When will this hellish journey end?
A battle sword indeed.
You have such a good sword.
I'm taking this! Hey, hey, hey! Why don't you say something? If you don't say something, I'll cut off your son's head! I heard this Goumori posting station is located in a remote, hot-springs resort but it works well for your body.
Well, whatever.
Even if you decide to leave now, we won't let you! You saw us kill that guy! Come with me! Move! You're one unlucky guy, you know that? You two came to take a bath in hell You've got some guts.
Help me! Help me! Help me! Help me! Help me! Help me! Don't do it, Mankichi! They'll kill you! Let me go, mother! They'll kill you! If we defy them, then they'll slaughter our villagers! I'm going to help Okayo! Let me go! Let me go! This is hell Hell on earth! They rape our women They rape and kill our women! Stop it! Please stop it! Okayo! Okayo! Why you! Bunch of beasts! Demons! She's not responding.

"Lone Wolf and Cub?" I see.
I knew I recognized him from somewhere I guess that's because I heard about the "Lone Wolf and Cub".
Nevermind what this "Lone Wolf and Cub" has to do with you.
What does he have to do with us? Well, you see Rumor has it that ltto Ogami makes 500 ryo per kill.
Killing ten makes him 5,000 ryo, twenty makes him 10,000 ryo! Even if we kill you all, we would only get 200 ryo.
Then we should work together to get our hands on tens of thousands of ryo.
Don't you think that's better? Hold it.
But where's all that money? Plus if he made so much money, then he doesn't have to wander around as a ronin.
He and his son can live happily for the rest of their lives.
He needs more money to defeat the Yagyu clan.
What? At least 50,000 ryo No, he needs several hundred thousand ryo to get influential pull from the head of government.
Then he'll finish off the Yagyu clan, and ask the government to revive the Ogami clan.
Even if he dies in the process, he has his son to take after him.
I see.
So he needs the money to defeat the powerful Yagyu clan.
Even Shogun are influenced with money these days.
It's possible.
But what are we going to do? He's a skilled swordsman who was also feared as the executioner.
How are we going to kill this ltto Ogami? Let's hear what you people have to say.
What are you going to do with that? What are you going to do with that? It's all set.
Wait and see the results! Here we go! You need a hunter's drum for beasts.
Candy man's drum for kids.
Battle drum for warriors.
Performance drum to attract customers.
Playful drum for a libertine.
Here we go! You need a hunter's drum for beasts.
Candy man's drum for kids.
Battle drum for warriors Here we go! It worked! Come on! Okay, now! Daigoro! Daigoro! Master ltto Ogami.
Long time no see.
You may not remember me, but I have not forgotten about you.
You made my young lord hold a fan against his stomach in front of me and decapitated him with your Dotanuki.
We're going to decapitate your kid to avenge the death of our lord! But in the difficult world we live in, we can't make money by avenging someone.
If you hand over the money you made from your kills, we'll just let bygones be bygones.
What do you say? Tell us where you hid the money! Even if you kill me, but lose your son in the process, your earnest wish won't be achieved! You can always make more money! You have no chance of winning! What do you say? You don't care if we decapitate your son? We don't care about life and death.
Even if we lose our lives right here, we're already prepared to die.
Why you! You think we're bluffing by saying we're going to kill your kid? Fine! We're going to kill him Wait! Let the kid go.
Are you serious? I said let him go! Master ltto Ogami.
We won't ask you to tell us where the money is.
What? But your head If I take your head, then it will be worth a lot of money! I see The Yagyu clan will pay us a lot of money for his head.
I didn't realize that! His head will be worth a lot of money! We are bounty hunters anyway.
It suits us better! Ikkaku Shiasu of the Mugai style! We'll finish this off with our skills! Jyosui Minazuki! Jinza Shimotsuki of the Kangetsu style spear attack! Ukyo Jyuro! Tanba Samidare! Ginji of Keima! Nyudo Sara'.
! Sakon Shigarami! Monnosuke lzumi! Suiou style ltto Ogami! Bunch of weaklings! Kill him! Why you! Daddy! Daddy! So he was the "Lone Wolf and Cub" after all.
Earnest wish of the "Lone Wolf and Cub" is too severe and far from being achieved.
When will this hellish journey end?
