Dororo has been captured by Itachi and is being taken to the cape where Hibukuro supposedly hid the money. As Itachi and his men look for boats to get across to the cape, they are approached by a one-armed boy named Shiranui.

While traveling along a mountain path in search of a demon, Dororo and Hyakkimaru encounter a young man named Dice-spot Saburota. The man says that he too is hunting the demon, and they set off to exterminate it together.

Inside Daigo's castle, Lady Nui appears before the cell in which Dororo has been imprisoned. Meanwhile, Hyakkimaru is also approaching the castle as he tries to take back both his body and Dororo. Behind Hyakkimaru stands Midoro, who has transformed into a ghoul.
