4

The story is told of a monster that moved into a small remote peaceful village in the mountains when it became prosperous and took its food and money. When the village lost heart, a wealthy woman, as beautiful as Bodhisattva, moved in and gave money to the village, but when it began to prosper again the monster would reappear. After Hyakkimaru saved Dororo from the monster, he and the villagers follow the mysterious monster Kanekozo from the riverbank to the bamboo grove. When Kanekozo fades away, Hyakkimaru gets the villagers to dig where it was, and find gold coins buried below the ground. They tell Lady Bandai and distribute the gold amongst the villagers. That night, Hyakkimaru and the villagers lie in wait for the monster while Dororo keeps watch on Lady Bandai, but falls asleep. The monster destroys a villager's house and Hyakkimaru follows it to lady Bandai's house where her real demonic form is revealed. Hyakkimaru and the villages give chase and eventually kill the monster. As it dies, Hyakkimaru's left leg grows back to his joy and amazement, but the villagers force the two strangers to leave because in their eyes, Hyakkimaru is also a monster. (Source: Wikipedia)
