قسط 26: Hyakkimaru نے demons کے شکار کے ایک سال بعد اپنے والد Daigo Kagemitsu کا سامنا کیا۔

26

Dororo is outraged to see four samurai mistreating poor farmers and volunteers to join them. After they kill a child, Hyakkimaru intervenes and kills the samurai, but refuses to stay and help in the rebellion, leaving Dororo in the village and he departs. Hyakkimaru continues his journey alone, defeating one demon after another while Dororo participates in the rebellion. A year later, Hyakkimaru has only one more demon to kill to complete the list of 48 that he needs to recover his body. An old woman tells him that the last demon to slay is his father, Daigo Kagemitsu who sold his soul to the demons to gain power. Hyakkimaru then discovers that Kagemitsu is the lord against whom the farmers were rebelling, and surprisingly offers to join Kagemitsu. However, when Kagemitsu orders Hyakkimaru to kill his prisoner Dororo to show his loyalty, Kagemitsu's wife Onui intervenes. In a fury, Kagemitsu kills her and then goes on a rampage, killing his own men. Hyakkimaru tells Dororo that he knows that she is a girl, and the she should grow up to be a mother living with the villagers. Hyakkimaru then chases after his father and kills Kagemitsu, claiming Jukai-sensei was the only real father he knew. As Hyakkimaru leaves, Dororo decides to stay in the village and make her own future there. (Source: Wikipedia)
