Gein sinks into Iwanbou's
cockpit and begins the fight with Kenshin. The rurouni
is able to dodge the large mechanical puppet's two fists
when they try to smash him into the ground, and also blocks
its kick with his own foot. Trying to end the fight quickly,
Kenshin hits the Ryu Kan Sen on Iwanbou's right arm, but
there is no effect. Gein twists Iwanbou's arm, grabs Kenshin,
and slams him to the ground. Kenshin gets back to his
feet and tries a jump slash, hoping that it'll take out
Iwanbou's arm down the center. There are more tricks up
Gein's sleeve, however. Gein maneuvers the controls so
that Iwanbou's right arm extends. All Kenshin hits is
the thick rubber skin, which he is unable to even scrape.
Finally, Gein introduces
himself to the rurouni, explaining that he is a mechanical
artist, one who has adapted the styles of a puppetmaster,
only to serve those who take place in great battles. Overall,
he holds no grudge against Kenshin. Seeing it as so, Kenshin
decides to give it his all.
Kenshin springs forward
and jumps up, executing the Ryu Sho Sen with his blade
reversed on Iwanbou's right arm. Gein is confident that
Kenshin's attack is useless. He is proved wrong. Kenshin
twists his Sakabatou, wrapping Iwanbou's skin around his
sword, and cuts off the model's arm.
