On Their Own.Episode Description:
Gennosuke and the Kouga plan their strategy. Gennosuke sends the scroll and a letter to the Iga Tsubagakure stating that he has no wish to fight and that he will travel with his ninja on the list to Sunpu to appeal to the retired shogun and Hattori to stop the war. However, if they are attacked by the Iga on the way, they will retaliate with full force. Tenzen immediately takes up the challenge and prepares to pursue the Kouga, sending Nenki and Hotarubi to scout their location. In Sekiyado, while waiting for a break in the rain, the Kouga are found by Nenki and Hotarubi whose snake spits the eye-sealing potion onto Gennosuke's eyes, blinding him. Nenki stays to fight and sends Hotarubi back to report to Tenzen, however Hyouma uses his Dōjutsu to force Nenki to kill himself. Saemon pursues Hotarubi, wounding her.
