Some time later, while staying in a safe temple, Shiho feels Kyoichi is still alive in Tokyo, having only lost control of his power. Gendo and Shiho search for him, meeting again with Chiyoe forces under the command of new lieutenant Mukuri, but they are saved by a duo of monk fighters, Ryora and Kinshi, sent as reinforcements from allies in the Mount Koya. Those manage to find and subdue the now animalistic Kyoichi, only for an intruding Mukuri to kidnap Shiho and unveil a mutated Tomoyo as one of his soldiers.
