Ogami Itto
- Inspector Yagyu Bizen-no-Kami: So you see, as three warriors have paid their lives to present this declaration I must now exercise my official right to inspect your shrine. Ogami, take me to the shrine.
- [They go to the shrine]
- Ogami Itto: To pay respect to, and to offer prayers for the souls of those I have been ordered to execute by the Shogunate I have built this shrine.
- Inspector Yagyu Bizen-no-Kami: It is most respectful! I am moved. It does you great credit, Ogami.
- Ogami Itto: Why it's...!
- Inspector Yagyu Bizen-no-Kami: What do we have here? Of all things... a death memorial tablet bearing the emblem of the Shogunate! Ogami! What is the meaning of this? Why a Shogunate tablet?
- Inspector Yagyu Bizen-no-Kami: Men, take Ogami Itto!
- Ogami Itto: This is too odd! Inspector Bizen... What is the meaning of these uniformed men? Was it your intent to take me away from the beginning?
- Inspector Yagyu Bizen-no-Kami: Naturally, in such an emergency as this!
- Ogami Itto: If that were so, they would have come here openly. Besides, there shouldn't have been any reason to hide your uniforms.
- [Grabs a guard]
- Ogami Itto: Furthermore, how do you explain the armor? If you were in such a rush to come here, why did you take the time to don this?
