Inui makes
a grand entrance by completely destroying
the gates of the Kamiya Dojo with a move
he calls the Raijin Guruma. Shortly after,
Otowa lands at his side. The two confront
Kaoru, Yahiko, and Megumi, wondering which
to take out first. Otowa has a hidden pocket-sized
crossbow hidden under one of his sleeves
and is prepared to fire at anyone he pleases,
but Kenshin jumps over his head and stands
before him. While Kenshin and Otowa are
left in a staredown, Sanosuke and Inui immediately
resume their unfinished brawl.
Sanosuke
uses the already broken Zanbatou to attack
Inui's tekkou. Inui blocks with his wristguards,
causing the Zanbatou to shatter on his armor.
His new tekkou is a gift from Enishi, which
he claims to be better than the last. As
the fight progresses, it is Sanosuke who
is beaten up. The former fighter for hire
is unable to use his ultimate attack, the
Futae no Kiwami, due to the extensive injury
on his right hand.
Gein becomes
upset as he watches the happenings on the
ground. Inui is fighting a personal grudge
and Otowa is at a standstill. Deciding to
take matters into his own hands, Gein leaps
out of his hot-air balloon's basket and
lands on a large crate hanging underneath.
Inside is the masked man's ultimate creation,
Iwanbou #3.
