Ep. 6: Weed and Jerome survive a fall while Hook reports to the Northern Alps

6

During a fall, Weed manipulates wind to position Kaibutsu against a gorge spike, killing him, while Ken and Kagetora release him. GB and Mel assist as Ken drags Kagetora from the river, but Weed and Jerome vanish, presumed fallen over the waterfall. Weed rescues Jerome, who claims his utility has ended, but refuses to let go. A human helicopter arrives for Jerome, who rejects them as an Ohu soldier, restoring temporary peace. One week later, Hook enters the Northern Alps, attacked by Nero but saved by Gin, Akame, and John. Hook reveals Sakura’s death and Weed’s birth. In the Japanese Alps, Nero reports to a Great Dane named Hougen, who kills him for failing Ohu soldiers. Hougen sends a borzoi trio to find Gin. Reika, an Akita Inu, shelters Gin but is spied on by Rocket. Hougen attacks their cabin, taking Reika hostage, and orders his army to kill Gin and John while Akame escapes to warn Weed. Meanwhile, at Gajou, Ohu soldiers bury those lost to Kaibutsu.
