Drama is intensified as the Iga Clan tries to outsmart their opponents by attacking both Kazamachi Shôgen, who has the Kouga copy of the scroll that talks about the Ninja war both clans are into, and Jubei Shimushi, who travels mysteriously through the forest and is attacked by the Igas in search of information. Meanwhile, while they are nervous, Gennosuke and Oboro still ignore most the information that the Igas (except for Oboro, of course) already have.
