Shiro Amakusa:
The Tokugawa Shogunate is now about to end.
|
|
Araki Mataemon:
Jubei, it is only to kill you that I have come back to life. Hiding behind your name, living idly from day to day ... How will the third generation of Yagyu fare in a real fight, I wonder?
|
|
Araki Mataemon:
[after cutting down a tree with only his sword] The power of the demon realm is even greater than I imagined. My body simply moves to where I will it!
|
|
Clara Oshina:
[Mataemon has lost his arm in battle] How dare you return to us in this condition!
Araki Mataemon:
I feel no shame. You promised immortal life. So… give me an arm!
Amakusa Shiro Tokisada:
[draws his sword] I will have no ear for prattle. Will you follow me? Or destroy yourself and return to hell?

Yagyu Jubei Mitsuyoshi:
Who are you?
Amakusa Shiro Tokisada:
Amakusa Shiro Tokisada.
Yagyu Jubei Mitsuyoshi:
Why does a ghost from Shimabara haunt the lands of Kishu? Do you seek vengeance?
Amakusa Shiro Tokisada:
"Vengeance." ... Tell me, have you ever looked into hell?
[they are suddenly surrounded by a vision of the battlefield at Shimabara]
Amakusa Shiro Tokisada:
So many slaughtered as an object lesson ... the last days of those who sought to escape Tokugawa rule ... hell itself! Man was not born to be another's dog!
[the battlefield is engulfed in fire]
Amakusa Shiro Tokisada:
Judgment day is near, and the Tokugawa will sink in flames. Its world of dogs will be destroyed ... and chaos will return!

Amakusa Shiro Tokisada:
The true warrior's spirit will not suffer to be hidden. Will you not meld your power into ours? The reward ... is eternal life.
Yagyu Jubei Mitsuyoshi:
Now what would I do with a thing like that?
Amakusa Shiro Tokisada:
Who is it you defend? The Shogun? Kishu?
Yagyu Jubei Mitsuyoshi:
I take no sides. But I'll kill every demon I find.
Amakusa Shiro Tokisada:
You won't surrender, then?
Yagyu Jubei Mitsuyoshi:
Never.
Amakusa Shiro Tokisada:
Then take heed; there are more than two who have been reborn from hell - and there are Yagyu among them, too. Soon, you will see - and when you die, I will be there ... waiting for you.
