It was a Sword He Once Crossed

Upset that he could not match both Jubei II, Kita Furo calls up his father's power. He recollects his childhood memories when he first crossed with the original Yagyu Jubei, and the fallen time of the Northern Yagyu. As Jiyu recovers, she encounters Furo, tells him that everything is over. Feeling guilty for his daughter's disappearance and recalling his deceased wife, Sai agonizes over his failings as a father and as a human being. When Jiyu returns home, hoping a warm reunion with her father, Sai however, deceived by Freesia, slaps her instead. Confused by this, Jiyu leaves home and Sai is in despair.
