23
Following Magatsuhi's defeat, Kagome's spiritual powers fully awaken as the Shikon Jewel emits pure light. Naraku deploys illusions to destroy this light, tricking Miroku into using his Wind Tunnel and forcing Sango to kill Rin. Inuyasha arrives just in time to stop Miroku. Kagome's sacred arrow strikes Naraku, shattering the illusions and freeing Rin with the Hiraikotsu. Kohaku saves Rin from falling to her death. The group witnesses Naraku's true body as his miasma spreads. Inuyasha launches a Meido Zangetsuha past Naraku, while Shippo observes Byakuya intercepting the attack with a strange blade to drain its energy. Sango shields the awakened Rin from the miasma using her protective mask.
