Nerves of Insanity

Enishi unleashes the Nerves of Insanity. With it, his reflexes including strength and speed are increased. Kenshin can't even see Enishi's movements; he is surprised to evade an attack from behind. Yet, Enishi's speed is far too fast for Kenshin's weary eyes. Enishi tries to slit Kenshin's throat from behind, but the rurouni blocks just in the nick of time. After explaining that the nerves are a gift from his sister, generated and fueled by his hatred, Enishi throws some sand in Kenshin's eyes and assaults him with his bare hands. Following one swift kick to his nemesis' face, Enishi grabs Kenshin by the hair and tosses him into the sea.

Sanosuke and Aoshi can't stand back and let Kenshin die before their eyes. They plan to interfere in the fight, but Yahiko holds them back, reminding them that it is still Kenshin's fight to the very end. Kenshin rises out of the salty water. He thanks the two for their concern, but promises to win even against the odds. Enishi springs into the air to a great height and approaches the ground with the Shikku Tou Sei. Even when up fighting against a godlike enhancement like the Nerves of Insanity, the Hiten Mitsurugi Ryuu knows no boundaries. Kenshin prepares to execute a new, never before seen technique, Ryu Mei Sen.
