Kyo makes one final attempt to stop Kyoshiro from taking his body and Yuya away, but Kyoshiro's power and extra interference from Hishigi prevent him from doing so. Meanwhile, Hotaru, Benitora, Akira and Shinrei are traveling through Tokito's territory, trying to reach the captive Bontenmaru. When they are waylaid and overpowered by Tokito's personal guards, only a quick escape across the border to Yuana's territory keeps them alive.
