The third-generation Shimazu Clan leader, Tetsuo Sakuragi (Yasukaze Motomiya), arranges a meeting with Kenichi Kanamori (Yoshiyuki Yamaguchi), but Kanamori refuses to listen.

Funaki desperately tries to prevent Kanamori’s alliance with Ichikō but ultimately reveals a certain truth to Kanamori that changes everything…
