قسط 7: Hyakkimaru aur Dororo demon sword Nihil aur uske purane malik Tanosuke Niki se milte hain

7

Hyakkimaru is challenged by a stranger possessed by sprits of the dead. He is Tanosuke Niki , owner of the demon sword Nihil with a dark and bloody history. Hyakkimaru defeats the swordsman and they depart, but Dororo runs back to retrieve the sword, even though Hyakkimaru warned against touching it. Shortly thereafter, the sword possesses Dororo and cries for blood, forcing Dororo to attack their dog Nota with it. They arrive at a house and Nota is confronted by a pack of hungry dogs. When the dogs see Dororo they attack, but Dororo savagely cuts them all down with the demon sword. However the sword says it wants to drink human blood. Dororo finds an old man and his daughter at a temple, and attacks them and wounds the father, but the daughter Osushi has a talisman which stops Dororo. A warning is spread throughout the village to hide indoors because of a killer disguised as a child. When Osushi goes to the inn for food, she meets her brother, the former owner of the demon sword Nihil. He has been absent for 5 years after becoming an ashigaru soldier in the lord's service. However he is only interested in finding Dororo and retrieving the sword. (Source: Wikipedia)
