In an abandoned lake, the duo locate the next sword, which operates as a robot. Togame collects data and tries to capture the machine using various traps, but every attempt fails. Shichika engages the robot in combat, yet it effortlessly blocks and dodges his strikes, surprising him with its unpredictable attack patterns. As the robot’s energy depletes, it leaps into the air. Shichika intercepts it mid-flight, securing the capture. He subsequently sends the doll to Princess Hitei.
