Can they succeed? And if so, will they be able to without a casualty With Ukyo hot on their trail, Kambei and the others visit his old friend, Shichiroji, at an inn in the city of Kougakyo. Shichiroji tells them of a secret passage they can use to escape.
Will they be able to loose Ukyo? Will Shichiroji join them or will he stay behind with Yukino? And, what has happened to Kikuchiyo? The group rests up in Honoka's, a girl they met who works for the guardians, house. But, when the Nobuseri arrive and the samurai decide to not interfere in their trading with the guardians, Rikichi won't stand idle by. And neither will Kikuchiyo.
With Kikuchiyo captured by the Nobuseri, Kambei devises a way to rescue the would-be hero. Unfortunately for the remaining samurai, the Nobuseri have laid an ambush for them With the Nobuseri on their trail, Kambei splits everyone up into three groups.
Each group takes a different route to Kanna Village. Shichiroji, Kyuzo, and Kirara take a third route. The samurai arrive at Kanna Village, but find that many of the inhabitants seem to be missing. While Kambei meets with the village elder, Kikuchiyo discovers that the women of the village have gone into hiding along with the rice. He reveals this to the other samurai and they begin the work of preparing the village for the coming battle with the Nobuseri. But, a traitor lurks in the village's midst With the traitor discovered, the samurai are at odds over what should be done with him.
Meanwhile, Katsushiro tries to come to terms with his feelings over the first life he has taken. And, later, Kikuchiyo reveals a startling secret. The battle begins! As the Nobuseri head toward the village, the samurai and farmers make last preparations. Will they be prepared in time? Ukyou is informed about all the going-ons including that the Nobuseri are having a war in Kanna village. Ukyou decided to stop the samurai hunt and not telling his father about the two missing bodyguards.
Meanwhile, the villagers continue with their trap to sneak into the enemy's ship. Will their plan succeed? But the Nobuseri are no normal bandits. They were once Samurai, who during the war integrated their living cells with machines to become dangerous weapons now appearing more machine than man. Absolute power corrupts, and their reign of terror is increasing its hold on the countryside. But one group of villagers has had enough, deciding to hire samurai to ….
But one group of villagers has had enough, deciding to hire samurai to protect their village. Kirara is a young priestess who travels to the city seeking out protection. One by one, she encounters brave samurai that the war has left behind. These men of skill and valor are each unique and not without their quirks.
But can they come together as one to defend the helpless village? Facing starvation at the hands of the Nobuseri, the farmers of Kanna Village make a desperate decision: hire samurai to wage war. The village's Water Priestess, Kirara, her little sister Komachi, and a heartbroken man named Rikichi journey to a giant merchant city. Navigating dangerous streets filled with ronin, they must find willing samurai before their village is lost.
Kirara's Dowsing Crystal found a samurai strong enough to lead them, but he refuses to help. Volunteering instead is the untried Katsushiro, but the Crystal does not point to him.
Could Kirara's tool of divination be wrong? The answer must come quickly, when the Magistrate's pleasure-loving son kidnaps Kirara, and the young samurai faces his first real test. Since the Great War ended, society has been turned upside down. Samurai honor has been replaced by the materialism of the merchants, and displaced warriors must find new ways to survive.
For one battle-scarred man, that means entertainment, exploiting his skills for daily bread. But with his real-world approach and adaptability, he may be exactly what the farmers need. The group has gotten the Magistrate's attention--never a good thing. Viewing samurai "relics" as a threat to merchant authority, their scuffle with his son makes a convenient excuse. He orders the group's execution, farmers and samurai alike.
As they battle a string of assassins, Kambei encounters one silent, incredibly skilled samurai he is determined to recruit. Frustrated by their inability to find willing and capable samurai, Kambei's group stops at a teashop to recharge.
There, they are told of a wandering, moneyless man who chops wood with his sword to pay for meals. As they soon learn, that is only the start of this nomad's peculiar, rice-loving, philosophizing ways. But his uniqueness could prove invaluable.
After the mysterious murder of the Imperial Envoy in the Magistrate's home--with a bloody sword as the only clue--a citywide hunt for all samurai begins. With a high price suddenly on their heads, the band of samurai must escape the city fast. Kikuchiyo, the erratic and blundering machine, seizes the moment to prove himself to the team.
With Kikuchiyo's fate uncertain, Kambei leads the samurai into a city of relaxation--and pays a visit to a trusted friend. Shichiroji fought with Kambei in the Great War, but has settled down to a peaceful life with a woman he adores. Can samurai truly abandon the warrior way? Will Shichiroji leave his love, and take up his sword again? The samurai escape a merchant raid, only to find themselves in a cavern city under the watchful gaze of the Shikimoribito.
