Achoja's group find Saki, but are surprised to see that Yasuke is black, making Haruto wonder if they are related. As they fight him, Yasuke breaks Achoja's nose and are later all knocked out by Saki.

Nikita manage to track Yasuke and Saki back to the village and they find Yasuke in a bar. Abraham tells them to capture Yasuke alive, but wanting to get payback for his broken nose, Achoja attacks Yasuke with a blade, but Haruto stops him. They eventually manage to defeat and capture Yasuke.

While Abraham tortures Yasuke, Ishikawa wants to be how long Yasuke will live and Achoja agrees. However, he eventually pulls Abraham away from Yasuke and states that Yasuke obviously doesn't know anything. Nikita and Haruto return with Saki, who uses Haruto's power to freeze Achoja and Ishikawa, who then with Yasuke's help kills Abraham. Wondering how they will be paid, Achoja just takes the money from Abraham's pocket. As they don't care about Yasuke or Saki anymore, they let them leave.

Achoja and his group receive a telepathic message from Saki, offering them double play if they come and help. The mercenaries agree and join Yasuke in their fight against the Dark Army. As they win, Achoja asks about their payment, which surprises Morisuke, but learning of Saki's offer, he tells them they will end to an agreement. A bigger army attacks and Ishikawa is killed. Seeing her death, Haruto launches into the army and self-destructs. While they run towards the temple, Nikita decides to stay behind and fight. Reaching a secret passage, Achoja decides to go with Yasuke and Saki and fight the Daimyo, however as he receives triple payment offer from Morisuke, he decides to stay and fight for the children and the elderly.

The Dark Army launches an attack on the temple, but Morisuke and his men create a barrier. Morisuke states that Achoja has great spiritual power, but he only uses it as a weapon, even when its better to be used as a shield. Achoja states that from where he comes there is a saying that no matter how hard a shield is, a blade will pierce it eventually. Daimyo uses her soldiers to create a large monster which attacks the temple's barriers. Achoja decides to join the fight and takes over the barrier, turning it into a large spirit fighter and fights back the monster. Eventually he loses the battle against the monster and they prepare to be killed. However the monster breaks apart, and Morisuke and Achoja realizes they have won. Saki and Yasuke return to Morisuke and see Achoja happy as he has been paid tons of gold.
