Ép. 4: Tsuta Houetsu tombe dans le désespoir après avoir vu son destin dans le miroir de Yasha Itaru.

That night Iga ninja Tsuta Houetsu encounters a Joujinshuu woman who threatens to kill him, but he trusts his defensive root barrier. She reveals her name is Yasha Itaru as he uses his Root Lasoo technique to bind her, however he makes the mistake of looking into her mirror, Destiny's Passage, which reflects his life, filling him with despair forcing to leap off a cliff to his death. Back at the Ooi River Joujin calls his attendants, Kujaku Tsuibamu and Rinne Magoroku who uses a spinning technique to transport Tadanaga to Akayashagaruba before the Kokuuzou Bosatsu or Adamantite Tower. Meanwhile, the Iga ninja search for Houestsu and encounter the Joujinshuu, Neiri Chiou. Tadanaga finds himself going back in time through Kujaku Tsuibamu's Inverted Halberd of Time, to when his brother was sick with the pox and envied his sibling's good health. Tadanaga now realizes that the Kurokuwa, were sent by his brother to kill him, and his only option is rebellion. Back at Jison'in Village, an eagle delivers a cloth with the word Joujinshuu written in blood from Gei'in, the name of his killers. As Rui and Shichigen near the Iga village, they find the remains of what appears to be the Five Flowers of Iga. At Ooi River, Tadanaga is confronted by the four severed heads of the Iga; Shogyo Kareha, Tsuta Houestsu, Irootoroe Itsuma and Suiren Shuugetsu. Joujin says he left only Kouga Hachirou and Iga Hibiki alive to demonstrate the power within his control. (Source: Wikipedia)
