Falling to the ground Shin quickly recovers cursing Muta as he rises. Muta realizes Ei Sei has emerged, Ei Sei offers Shin his help, but he declines. Muta takes Ei Sei's does not join the fight as another underestimation of his abilities which infuriates him even more. Muta launches an all-out offensive attacking Shin with repeated strikes, Shin barely parries an attack directed at his body and is sent crashing to the ground yet again. While Shin rises, Ei Sei realize that he is hesitating and calls for Shin to move forward, empowering him to attack instead of defend bringing the two warriors to a deadlock.
Meanwhile back in the capital Shi Shi continues to doubt General Ou Ki by pointing out that the head he'd brought to Ketsu Shi is to beat and disfigured to ascertain whether or not it was Shou Bun Kun's head or not. General Ou Ki claims all of his fallen enemies look that way and casually threatens to show Shi Shi with one of his staff's heads. Shi Shi questions Ou Ki's motives, Ou Ki tells Shi Shi flatly that he lives for a world filled with battle.
