The Oni Poison was coursing through Gargroni's body. That coupled with his technique at its maximum meant he had to finish this fight quickly if he wanted to survive.

Gargroni: Kachito Mishimura, Lei-Lei Katsukura, let us end this battle with an amazing finale!

Kachito: I couldn't agree more big guy!

Lei-Lei: Sure...Why do they seem excited to die...

Kachito ran in to slash at Gargroni's midsection. Gargroni dodged and came down with a strike but Kachito jumped onto his club and delivered a right hook to Gargroni's face.

Gargroni returned with a punch that sent Kachito back into a building before Kachito lept back out. Gargroni swung his club as Kachito swung Mochi, their weapons clashing, Kachito was using all his Kami no Chikara to keep the clash going.

Lei-Lei used the Return Kunai by throwing it into Gargroni's face and teleporting to it, delivering a swift and strong blow.

Lei-Lei: Velocity Impact!

Gargroni wad knocked to the side and Kachito jumped towards Gargroni's face. He readied a right hook and then it starting rippling through the air, gaining speed and velocity before coming into contact with Gargroni's face, cracking the air.

Kachito had managed to successfully land a Ripple for the first time since he exorcised Dojin.

Kachito: Eat that big guy!

Gargroni flew back, his giant body crashing into and through buildings. He got up and coughed up blood as he tried to move, the Oni Poison was starting to have its effects.

Gargroni wiped his mouth and ran up to swing his club at Kachito. Lei-Lei got out of the way.

Lei-Lei: The job of killing him is yours Kachito!

Kachito: You got it!

Kachito then dodged Gargroni's swing, the club making contact with a nearby pile of rubble, and then, the muscles of his arm blew out, his technique was also taking its toll.

Gargroni's legs then collapsed, bending abd breaking as the Oni Poison withered him so far even his regeneration wouldn't help. Gargroni's club arm was blown. He only had one functioning limb left.

Gargroni: Kachito Mishimura...

Kachito: Huh?

Gargroni: You have won.

Gargroni lowered his head presenting his neck for his head to be removed.

Gargroni: Claim my death...you have earned that right.

Kachito raised Mochi into the air and brought it down with a Clear Cut, removing Gargroni's head.

Gargroni: For 400 years...all I sought was a death after a battle of my life...that was the best fight I've had in my entire existence despite it's short time. Thank you Kachito Mishimura...

Gargroni's body dissolved in a purple smoke as Kachito looked down at it.

Kachito: Y'know Lei-Lei, I kinda liked that guy other than the eating people thing.

Lei-Lei: I'll be fair, he did have more honor and humility than all other Oni. But let's help the villagers left out yeah?

Kachito: Yeah! Let's go!

MEANWHILE...

Zotawa was battling Hyabusa, but he was currently outmatched due to Hyabusa's four arms.

Hyabusa: Come on. This is a pathetic display Zotawa Rodin. I expected better of the Rodin clan after 400 years.

Zotawa: You act like you know the Rodin clan deeply!

Zotawa rushed in but was quickly sent back by Hyabusa.

Hyabusa: I do. After all, I was one of them. We are tied by blood Zotawa Rodin.

Zotawa: Bullshit!

Zotawa tried to us Cross Cutter Slash but it was swiftly blocked by Hyabusa and with his bottom two arms, Hyabusa mimicked it. Leaving a cut across Zotawa's chest and kicked him away.

Hyabusa: As I was saying. I am of the Rodin clan Zotawa. In fact, I am one if your direct ancestors. You're great great great great great great great great grandfather.

Zotawa: Then why the hell are you trying to kill me huh!?

Hyabusa: Think of this as a test. One that will end in death. But a test nonetheless. Now prepare to-

Hyabusa's bottom right arm was bitten. By none other than Jeremī.

Zotawa: Mutt!? What the hell are you doing here!?

Jeremī was still biting into Hyabusa's arm. Before Hyabusa raised his top right arm and stabbed through Jeremī before throwing him to Zotawa. Though, Jeremī regenerated nearly immediately.

Hyabusa: An Inugami eh? Whatever. Prepare for battle. Both of you.

Hyabusa sheathed all four of his katanas, and he started emitting a purple aura of pure Dakuenaji.

Hyabusa: Let us heighten the battles flow! Here and now Zotawa!

Jeremī used his divine energy to patch up the gash across Zotawa's chest. Zotawa got back up and clutched his two katanas. Ready to fight some more.

Zotawa: Then let's go. "Ancestor."
