Episode 7

The story returns to 46 years ago when the main plot took place. The opening describes the 12-year-old Yoshii Toranaga accepting the surrender of his opponent Mizoguchi.Mizoguchi was surprised that he lost to this rare warrior who could win their first battle before the pillow girl.After asking that he be remembered with honor, Mizoguchi committed seppuku, but not before asking the young Yoshii Toranaga to serve as his assistant.

Since most acts of seppuku are completed by an assistant, this is no small request and may serve a dual purpose.Of course, this honors the young Yoshii Toranaga, but it also requires him to prove his ability even though he is just a kid.“Perhaps we will meet again in the afterlife, ” Mizoguchi told him before opening his belly and waiting for Hideyoshi to complete his task.“Maybe I will be the one holding the sword.”Yoshii Toranaga had a crucial meeting with his half-brother Saeki Noburyu, which will determine the future destiny of Yoshii Toronaga.
