Chihiro begins a fierce battle with Sojo, and the two with their enchanted blades are very evenly matched. They take turns exchanging powerful magical attacks while Sojo goads Chihiro about his father's selfishness to keep the swords hidden for the time he had, even though he admires the craftsmanship it took to make such beautiful weapons. Elsewhere on the battlefield, things are very perilous for the Anti-Cloud Gouger special forces. Later, Char reveals a bit about her time when she was imprisoned with her mother, especially how she was able to escape.

Katsuma-san finishes telling the history of Haretake and the evil lurking inside their foe who now has Tsuki hostage. Katsuma tells of Haretake’s goal to unseal the sessho-seki stones and unleash whatever evil is lurking below and the attempt Haretake will make to control the power inside. With this knowledge, Katsuma sets Konosuke, Aki, and his new apprentice Bokutake off and through a jar to go rescue Tsuki. But Katsuma’s jar drops Konosuke off in a gambling den in the clutches of one of the generals of the Tsuchimikado clan. This would-be professional gambler toys with Konosuke, at first lulling him into a false sense of security, but eventually prodding him to gamble with something very high stakes, much more valuable than money.
