The trio arrived at Saigai Village. The village of cherry blossoms. Said to be the birth place of the First Heavenly Swordsman 2,000 years ago. Zotawa went off to buy rooms for them in the Saigai Inn. Leaving Kachito with Lei-Lei.
Kachito: Sooo...wanna go get some mochi-
Lei-Lei: No.
Zotawa overheard that.
Zotawa: I'll just leave her with Kachito for now...
He walks out. Kachito still tries to flirt with Lei-Lei.
Lei-Lei: Oh my great gods stop...
Kachito: C'mon I can't possibly be that bad!
Lei-Lei: I didn't join you to fuck! I joined you to help fight the Global Government you idiotic-
Suddenly, the shot of a matchlock went between their faces. Causing Lei-Lei to sweat and look in the way it came.
Lei-Lei: Shit...
Kachito: I take it those are your friends?
Lei-Lei: Friends is a generous term.
Then three assassins revealed themselves. One with two matchlocks, one with a dagger, and one with no weapon.
Kachito: And you all are?
The one with the matchlocks speaks up.
???: I'm Buruzuai the Bullseye. The one with daggers is Pointo. And the girl with no weapons here is Kenshōjo.
Kenshōjo: Wow Lei-Lei...betraying us for a wanted duo. How unprofessional.
Pointo: Consider us disappointed.
The three quickly rush in. Kachito runs into Buruzuai and shoulder tackles him. Separating himself and Buruzuai from the other two. Pointo and Kenshōjo went attack Lei-Lei but Zotawa, having heard the commotion kicked Kenshōjo away and fought her.
Zotawa: You deal with dagger boy.
Lei-Lei nodded.
Kachito was dodging shots from Buruzuai.
Buruzuai adjusted his cowboy like hat.
Buruzuai: Quit moving!
Kachito: Matchlocks ain't worth it if you can't hit your target y'know.
Buruzuai let put an angry groan.
Buruzuai: Talk shit when I fire gunpowder up your ass!
Meanwhile with Zotawa, he was struggling a bit with Kenshōjo. She was extremely good with martial arts.
Zotawa: I'll give you this, you're actually good. I mean, fighting swords with punches and kicks impressive. It's a shame I don't plan on holding back.
Kenshōjo smirks.
Kenshōjo: Good! Don't hold back Zotawa Rodin. I want to see the strength of someone from the Ronin clan!
Zotawa: Don't lump me in with them.
And lastly, Lei-Lei was fighting Pointo.
Pointo: C'mon Katsukura. You betray us. Who the hell do you think you are. Going against your fellow assassins. The Global Government.
Lei-Lei: I'd rather die than keep being their slave. Unlike you...so...
Lei-Lei chucked a special looking kunai and teleported to it.
Lei-Lei: Forgot I have the Return Kunai?
Pointo sighs.
Pointo: That legendary arm won't stop me Katsukura!
Pointo jumps up.
