Ginga Densetsu Weed

Synopsis

Weed and Rocket go down to tackle Hougen as Kite goes after them and Akame goes to take care of the battlefield. Before starting the fight, Weed asks Hougen what his goal in doing all of this is and Hougen replies that this ultimate goal is to take revenge on the humans after having enough dogs on his side, due to Genba and his past trauma. The Great Dane attacks Weed while Kite fights with Rocket and in the battlefield, Tesshin interrogates one of Kite's soldiers and gets to know where Kite has gone. Ken, Kagetora and their family members defeat a large part of Batt's troop and Ken, Kagetora and Shigure run after where they think Batt is. During the battle in the gorge, Weed launches a Battouga at Hougen and Hougen tries dodging it, but Weed changes direction, pushing Hougne right into the river, where he floats away and falls from the waterfall. Kite, angry at his boss's downfall, prepares to attack Weed and Rocket, as Weed asks whether Kite hates humans too and Kite replies that he does. However, Tesshin intervenes, allowing the two to escape, as Rocket warns him about Kite's front legs, which can cut through rocks. Kite and Tesshin prepare to fight again. In the forest where Batt's army is, a forest fire breaks out as Ken, Kagetora and Shigure get lured into a dead end, where Batt's army is waiting for them. However, Jerome's bodyguards arrive and fight off the remainder of Batt's army as Batt senses it with his mind's eye. Ben senses the presence of Batt with his own senses and inform Kurotora and Cross about it. Meanwhile, Tesshin and Kite continue their fight and enter the forest where the forest fire has started as the flames begin to spread and Tesshin senses that Kite's front legs might be artificial and Kite reveals his past of an assassin working for the humans. Kurotora, Ben and Cross reach where Batt is and defeat his messengers. Cross runs off to bring Ken and Kagetora, while Ben and Kurotora try cornering Batt, but the weimaraner is too strong and he defeats Kurotora easily as a snowstorm blows out on them, giving Batt more advantage. In the forest, Kite and Tesshin fight, jumping form tree to tree as Tesshin is unable to convince Kite to leave Hougen's army. Tesshin then breaks a tree branch which has caught fire on its tip and shoves it into Kite, burning the covering of his front legs, revealing them to be made of metal and realizes his reasons for hating humans. Cross arrives with Ken and Kagetora and they find Ben guarding a fallen Kutora. They get angry and scream at Batt to come out, as he makes a sudden surprise attack, injuring them both. Ben advises them to calm themselves, since Batt is not an enemy who could be fought with blind anger and strength, and tells them to use their other senses to detect him. They soon do and as he is making an attacking, they injure and defeat him. In the forest, Tesshin embeds the branch he is carrying into Kite's collar, as the greyhound furiously chases after him. However, Kite gets caught in the trees due to the branch getting stuck in his collar and almost chokes to death, but Tesshin saves him. Kite, although violent at first, is moved by Tesshin's kindness. Ben and Kurotora tell Batt that Ohu doesn't kill someone for being their enemy and gives them a second chance and both Batt and Kite begin shedding tears of regret. Meanwhile, far away in the gorge, Hougen gets out of the rive rand runs straight into Mel, Reika and Hiro. Hougen defeats Mel and Hiro, but Reika requests him not to kill her as she has fallen in love with him due to his youthfulness. Hougen delightfully starts walking away with her, but Reika pushes him back into the river, having tricked him. Hiro and Mel, unable to get up due to their injuries, scream for help and Jerome appears suddenly and jumps into the river to save Reika.
