1:16:00
Niiro... effective immediately,
you are to...
1:16:06
...leave our Elder Assassination
Group!
1:16:09
What did you say?!
1:16:10
We were hoping that you were with us,
and that we could count on you.
1:16:15
But, if you can't be convinced, then...
there's nothing to be done. Farewell.
1:16:20
Wait!
1:16:22
I pledge that... I'll serve you, and
that I will destroy li Naosuke!
1:16:28
But, Kurihara Einosuke must
be destroyed first.
1:16:32
We can't possibly proceed
with our plans, if...
1:16:36
...we have a viper at our
breast! Farewell!
1:16:40
Wait!
1:16:50
Niiro... Then, will you...
take care of Kurihara?
1:16:58
Well, you'd prefer not
to act alone, I'm sure.
1:17:00
Don't worry. You'll have some help.
Three good swordsmen, in fact.
1:17:04
No, they'd only be a hindrance!
I will kill him by myself!
1:17:16
Who's there?!
1:17:22
Why... it's you,
Niiro!
1:17:29
You heard about the meeting
at Yamazakiya, right?
1:17:31
Don't give me the
wrong idea...
1:17:33
Standing there like that, one might think
you want to test your sword on flesh.
1:17:37
Come on. Let's
get going.
1:17:42
But... how did you know that
I was coming this way?
1:17:56
Niiro... what's wrong? You don't seem
like your usual self tonight...
