Manji visits a priest to confess his sins of killing his lord and one hundred of his retainers. The priest, is actually a bounty hunter named Johnny Gyobutsu who shoots Manji in the forehead, but Manji regenerates the wound and then kills Johnny. Manji returns to his home to Yaobikuni who placed "sacred bloodworms" into Manji which make him immortal, and his sister Machi who has regressed to a childlike mindset. That evening, Machi dreams of the time Manji was forced to kill her husband, a police officer who was pursuing him. She wanders off into the night and is captured by a group of ronin led by the Hishiyasu Shido brother of Johnny. As Machi is released, Hishiyasu kills her and in response, Manji kills every member of the ronin group. Upon returning to Yaobikuni, declares that he will seek redemption for the hundred men he killed by killing one thousand evil men. In the final scene, a woman is shown at a grave-site, swearing to take revenge. (Source: Wikipedia)
