#9 The story of the mercilessness

What do you want?

Dororo...

Dororo, body, hot...

Sick, huh? Sorry, but I'm just a farmer.

I ain't got no medicine.
Don't know how to help.

Sorry, kid.

Mama?

Is something the matter?

Mama...

Don't worry, you just sleep some more.

This is a temple.
Your friend brought you here.

Hyakkimaru?

Oh no!

You mustn't!

No! He'll leave me behind again.

Don't worry, he just went
to go fetch some water.

Nobody is going to leave you behind.

I hate Manjushage, the red spider lilies.

They remind me of my papa and mama.

Were they such terrible parents?

No!

That's not it.

Papa and Mama were strong and kind.

Papa, take me with you next time.

If your mama says okay.

Those samurai had it coming.

Right, Boss?

All shivering pale like they saw a ghost.

We wouldn't even lose to Daigo's army now.

No doubt.

Who should we get next?

Let's see.

Go on to Mama now.

I wanna listen.

Dororo, I'll play with you later.

Humph, no way.

Mama!

I want to go with Papa.

I told you, no.

I can beat up the bad guys, too.

When you get a little bigger, okay?

I wanna go now! Please!

Do you want me to hang you up
on a tree again?

What's with the puffed cheeks?
Trying to be a squirrel?

I'm no squirrel.

Whatcha doing?

Throwing rocks. I can't use a sword,
so I'll beat the bad guys like this.

I like the way you think.

But you know Dororo, you can't live
on just strength from now on.

Big trouble!

The samurai are coming!

Dororo, you hide over there.

-Boss!
-Came for revenge, huh.

You'll pay for what you did, you crooks!

We only strike samurai.

Don't take us for some lowlife scumbags!

Shut up!

-Dororo!
-Mama.

Mama...

Don't worry.
Your papa will always be your papa.

Yeah...

So, what now?

We'll round up some men and regroup.

We can't run away now,
for the sake of the men we lost.

Ojiya, we'll have to move around
for a while.

I guess so.

During these days, brigands
scourged the lands of every region.

Their brutality brought fear
into the hearts of the helpless.

Samurai who'd lost their lords
formed their own bands.

And the poor joined them
in order to make a living.

Each had their own reasons for joining.

Hibukuro's band consisted of farmers,
and they only assaulted samurai.

They were quite a rare band of brigands.

Hey, Papa?

Why do you go beat up the samurai?

It's to teach them a lesson.

So that they'll treat us right.

Samurai don't even get that?

I'd say they've learned their lesson now.

What do you mean?

Take a look around.
You've built up a pretty tough band.

Why don't you look towards the future now?

If you play your cards right,
the lord will give you a good position.

Itachi, have you forgotten
what they've done to us?

Because of the wars
those lords started up,

our families were killed
like they were nothing but bugs.

They burned down our village
that we built up together.

Yeah, I've forgotten those things.

Can't hold on to things that've passed.

You gotta join forces with the samurai
from here onwards.

You're a disgrace!

I didn't say anything wrong.

Say that one more time
and you'll get a mouthful of this.

Fine.

The Yanagimoto guys are worn out
from fighting Daigo.

Now's our chance.

Charge!

-No!
-Mama!

Ojiya, Dororo!

Explain yourself, Itachi!

This whole place is going to be
a battlefield in no time, Boss.

It's the age of the samurai.

You can't make a living
being stubborn like you.

I'm taking your men with me.

You coward...!

I'll tear you to pieces!

No!

You can't even stand on those legs now.

Too bad you can't tear me to pieces.

The flames of Hibukuro have gone out,
and he's just a sack of rags now.

No...

Itachi!

Let's find something to eat.

Mama...

Is this what hell is like?

I don't know,
but it might not be as bad as this.

Why are Manjushage the color of blood?

They might've soaked up the blood
of those who died in war.

Stop that. You're scaring the poor child.

Have mercy!

It took years for us
to build this village up.

Silence! We must not have any obstacles
in the way of our army.

These are our lord's orders!

No, please!

How are we supposed to live on?

Hands off!

Burn them down!

That's too cruel.

The lords and samurai think they can
do anything if it's for a war. But...

Please, don't anymore.

Let's go.

Stop right there.

I'll never forget that huge pole sword.

Our homes were raided by brigands,
and my friends were all killed.

I could never understand
why I alone was left to live.

But now I know.

Hibukuro!

You bastard!

This is how you use a spear!

Papa... Papa...

Papa... Papa...!

Papa...

Mama, I'm hungry.

The war will end some day.

Once it does,
you'll be able to eat all you want.

You mustn't lose to it until then, Dororo.

You there.

Yes?

It may be none of my business,

but samurai are giving handouts
over at the temple down that way.

You should go there.

Itachi!

Well, what a surprise.

What are you doing here?

I got nice and cozy with the lord,

but now I've gotta achieve something
out on the battlefield.

There are lots of brigands around here.

This is the quickest way
to gather up some men.

So, how's Boss doing?

I see.

How've you been, Dororo?

Looking good... or maybe not.

Don't, Dororo.

But, I...

Listen to your mama.

Fine.

Almost out. Don't got enough for everyone.

Wait here, Dororo.

Please, give me some!

You ain't got a bowl.

Sorry, but we don't got any more
to lend you.

Then pour it here.

But...

Give it to her.

O-Okay.

Mama, are you okay?

Of course. Eat it slowly now.

It's yummy. Aren't you going to eat?

Don't worry, eat up now.

I didn't want to see you like this.
Sunken down so low.

Dororo!

You can't live on strength alone
from here on out.

Use your brains.

Gotta be smart, or you'll die.

You jerk!

Mama?

Mama!

I'm fine. I just need to rest...

Mama...

Hold on, I'll go find some food.

Come here, Dororo.

The war will end some day...

You mustn't lose to it until then...

Mama? Mama!

Answer me, Mama.

I won't say I'm hungry anymore,
so please don't die.

Mama, Mama...!

That's why I'm never going to give up.

I'm not going to lose to some war...

I know not how you two are related.

But it must be difficult
traveling with such a young girl.

I pray that Buddha will bless you
on your journey.

That nun said I had the 3-day fever.

I don't remember anything that happened.

Thanks for not leaving me behind.

Oh yeah. You can't see,
but she washed my clothes, too.

See? They don't smell anymore.

Wait a minute...

So I had my clothes taken off?

Hey, did that nun say anything about me?

Did she?

Hey, I know you can hear me.

Say something, come on.

Can you hear me?
Hey, I'm talking to you.

There was a former midwife who worked here

who had heard that a baby without limbs
was sent floating down a river.

And 3 days ago,

a commander pursuing an Asakura spy
was injured severely by an unknown man.

The commander said the man's arms
were prosthetics.

Sorrow scatters in the wind,

piling up to form shadows

Our footsteps admonish
indifference in such verbose ways

As I peek into your fathomless eyes,
I lose my composure

Is there any hope
in the place I am heading to?

I feign amusement and laugh

because this road is so dark

I will be there to shine the light

I'm used to playing at saying goodbye,

but I cried when I waved to you

Our fiery woes fade... and fade...
until night falls upon us

If I knew tomorrow would be so mundane,

I wouldn't have said that I wanted to live

I know it's futile but can't help dreaming
of a future... a future... you are to blame
