Aired on March 5, 2001

Naraku provides Sesshomaru with a human arm containing a Shikon Jewel shard, enabling him to use the Tetsusaiga sword. Sesshomaru confronts Inuyasha to claim the weapon's ownership. During the encounter, Jaken summons demonic souls from the mountains. Sesshomaru displays the sword's power while Miroku attempts to defend himself using his Wind Tunnel technique. Sesshomaru releases the poisonous demonic wasps known as the Saimyoushou. Miroku realizes that these insects can poison his right hand, complicating his ability to fight back against the combined forces of Sesshomaru and the summoned entities.
