Ghosts Aren't the Only Ones Who Run Wild Around Graveyards

A: Boss!

A: You really sure about this?

A: If one faction causes trouble,

the other three g*ng up to crush it?

B: It's obvious that they want to get rid of us!

Jirocho: I'd say that this saves time.

Jirocho: This is a chance to show them who the

real king of the Kabuki District is.

C: But that means we'll have to deal with Otose...

Jirocho: My memory's been getting worse.

Jirocho: Who is this Otose person?

B: Idiot!

B: We're not supposed to mention the hag

while the boss is around!

Jirocho: The vixen is not as much of a concern as the cub.

Jirocho: Focus on him.

Jirocho: Damn.

Jirocho: What is that kid doing?

Otose: You were dancing to her tune.

Otose: That's not like you.

Otose: Kada is using you to get rid of Jirocho,

who's hurting her business.

Saigo: I just want to live peacefully

in this town with my comrades.

Saigo: I'll dance a waltz or octopus dance if that's what it takes.

Otose: So you can clean up this town by eliminating him?

Otose: Even if that were true,

Otose: I could never bring myself to love a town

that's neat and tidy.

Saigo: Spoken like a true trashy old hag.

Saigo: I believe that you're old friends

with the trashy old geezer?

Otose: Haven't talked to him in over ten years.

Otose: Doesn't really matter if a dangerous old man dies or not.

Otose: But...

Pirako: I'm here to turn the town

where Jirocho is into a garden.

Otose: The timing's too perfect.

Katsuo: Finally, it's time for payback.

Katsuo: Like I said before,

Katsuo: I always return the favor, seven for three.

Gin: Nobody parts their hair : anymore.

Gin: You should shave your head

and opt for the bald look.

Katsuo: Up yours!

Katsuo: My hair is styled like Joe Odagiri!

Katsuo: Fashion trends come back in a cycle!

Gin: Hold on here.

Gin: I was egged on by this stupid girl.

Gin: I have no grudge against you, Joe Schmo.

Katsuo: Who are you calling Joe Schmo?!

Katsuo: Besides, that's not what my boy here told me.

Katsuo: I know what's going down.

Katsuo: You promised to

help her decorate our boss with red flowers.

Gin: How do you know that?

Katsuo: Why don't you tell him what you really

mean when you say red flowers, Pirako-han?

Gin: Uh, Pirako-chan?

Gin: U-Uh, are you...

Pirako: Bro, my boss was

a relative of Jirocho, and an old friend.

Pirako: He used to tell me when I was young,

Pirako: about the great Jirocho, warrior among warriors.

Boss: The warriors you see around these days

are just a bunch of wild hotheads.

Boss: But he was different.

Boss: He would save the weak and crush the strong.

Boss: He would only employ his strength

for the sake of his particular justice.

Boss: That's what you call a true warrior.

Pirako: That's too hard for me to understand.

Boss: Sorry about that.

Boss: The more I talk, the less sense I make.

Boss: Basically, Jirocho was a flowery man.

Boss: That's probably what drew your mother to him.

Boss: Though the flowers in him d*ed at some point...

Pirako: He abandoned his wife and child,

Pirako: and crushed his wife's family because of business.

Pirako: And now he's picking a stupid fight

with a tr*nny and an old hag.

Pirako: I just want to see the old Jirocho one more time.

Pirako: To help him take the world...

Pirako: To help make some pretty flowers bloom in my old man.

Gin: Huh? What's she talking about?

Gin: That went completely over my head.

Gin: What? What?!

Katsuo: There you have it.

Katsuo: Pirako-han is...

Katsuo: No, the young lady is

Katsuo: Jirocho's daughter!

Katsuo: To be precise, she's the daughter of the

missus who divorced the boss and went back to her family.

Gin: Bullshit!

Gin: Help your old man take the world?!

Gin: That's the complete opposite of revenge!

Pirako: Isn't that what I said?

Pirako: I'm here to decorate him with flowers.

Gin: You were talking about making me the big boss of Japan!

Gin: You were trying to make me fight Jirocho!

Pirako: Yakuza grow stronger by recruiting the people they b*at.

Pirako: My old man can take the world if the strongest

man in the Kabuki district is on his side.

Pirako: Once you're the big boss,

my old man will be the big, big boss!

B: Young lady, it's settled.

Pirako: Bro, the Jirocho g*ng will be making their move now.

Pirako: Do you know what's happened?

Pirako: There's a law in this lawless town now.

Pirako: If any faction starts a fight,

Pirako: the other Devas will crush them.

Pirako: The first victim will probably be

the boss of a certain someone

Pirako: who picked a fight with the Jirocho g*ng

Pirako: over a helpless little girl, Otose.

Pirako: But it's your call to make, Bro.

Pirako: Please join us!

Pirako: Or else we'll have to drop you in the ocean,

Pirako: and Otose will be targeted by everyone in the Kabuki district!

Gin: Hey, I'm guessing that's supposed to be a thr*at,

Gin: but if you k*ll me here,

you'll be considered the aggressors.

Katsuo: You an idiot?

Katsuo: Why do you think we put on a show

in the middle of town?!

Katsuo: We got plenty of witnesses!

Gin: You're the idiots!

Gin: The Four Devas aren't gonna move because of a little spat!

Gin: A death is far more serious!

Gin: Die, baldie!

Gin: Go bald down your parted hair line!

Gin: Go bald all over your body!

Katsuo: I ain't gonna go bald!

Katsuo: Every week, I part my hair to the opposite side

to avoid excessive damage to my scalp!

Katsuo: I ain't like Sanshi Katsura!

Pirako: If that's not enough, how's this?

Pirako: We'll say that you k*lled our young leader here,

and we k*lled you for revenge.

Katsuo: Huh? No way...

All: Bro!

Pirako: Is your boss the guy with the parted hair?

Pirako: Or is it Jirocho?

D: B-But...

Pirako: If you move, I'll turn you all into flowers.

Pirako: Got it, Bro?

Pirako: I'm serious.

Gin: D-Damn you!

F: Bastard!

F: He jumped into the water with the concrete!

D: Is he trying to escape?!

Pirako: Nope.

Pirako: He went to save him.

F: That's stupid!

F: He can't move!

F: And why would he save Bro?!

Pirako: Yes, he's stupid.

Pirako: I was very surprised.

Pirako: But that's why I wanted him on our side.

Pirako: But he also chose the old hag.

Pirako: Pity.

Pirako: Bye-bye, Bro.

Kada: Pity.

Kada: I came up with this plan so the three of us

could deal with Jirocho,

Kada: but I never would have expected Otose to...

Agomi: Don't be ridiculous!

Agomi: Otose-san would never...

Agomi: Pako would never do anything like that!

Agomi: We know how gentle they are!

A: Calm down, Assmi!

Agomi: Don't call me Assmi!

Agomi: It's Azumi, damn it!

Saigo: Shut the hell up, Ass!

Agomi: Could you add the "mi"?

Agomi: You can call me Assmi as long as the "mi" is there.

Saigo: It looks like we were the only ones

serious about stopping this conflict.

Saigo: When did you make a deal with Jirocho?

Jirocho: You think I would make a deal with that vixen?

Jirocho: Were you pushed by the kid?

Jirocho: No, were you the one who pushed the kid?

Saigo: Don't play dumb!

Saigo: They might be rotten to the core,

but they aren't dirty like you people!

Pirako: That's enough.

Pirako: You should stop that, Saigo-san.

Pirako: It's not nice to whine and go back on your word.

Pirako: Pleasure to meet you.

Pirako: I'm Jirocho's daughter, Pirako Doromizu.

Saigo: Jirocho's...

Pirako: I have a question for you, Saigo-san.

Pirako: Do you have any

proof that Otose-san hasn't done anything?

Saigo: My proof is the fact that you have no proof.

Saigo: Why would Otose pick a fight with Jirocho?

Saigo: And now of all times?

Saigo: There's obviously a conspiracy going on.

Pirako: Nobody would spend that

much effort to k*ll an old hag.

Pirako: Besides, we have proof

that Otose-san would pick a fight with my old man.

Pirako: There's a long history between them.

Pirako: Isn't that right, old man?

Pirako: Here it is.

Otose-san's husband, Tatsugoro Terada,

Pirako: was k*lled by my old man.

Pirako: Oh? You didn't know?

Pirako: What about this?

Pirako: My old man and Tatsugoro-san

were friends when they were young.

Pirako: But then they got into a fight over a certain girl.

Pirako: Tatsugoro-san was the one who won her over.

Pirako: I'm sure that my old man wasn't happy about it.

Stop it...

Pirako: That's why he k*lled his old friend.

Pirako: So he could have the girl.

Jirocho: Stop it.

Pirako: Do you know why he abandoned his own

Pirako: wife and daughter to come to this town?

Pirako: That's because the girl, Otose-san, is here.

Jirocho: Didn't you hear me say to stop?

Pirako: See? It's just like I said.

Pirako: He cares more about Otose-san than his own daughter.

Jirocho: You came here just to tell me that?

Jirocho: Such a dutiful daughter.

Pirako: If what I'm saying isn't true,

that should mean you can k*ll Otose-san.

Pirako: Are you running away?!

Jirocho: Saigo, don't worry.

Jirocho: Yakuza don't need trannies to clean up their mess.

Jirocho: You stay out of it.

Jirocho: I'll settle this myself.

Saigo: Wait!

Saigo: I'm not done talking...

Pirako: I'll spare you this one time, since you kept whining.

Pirako: Could you shut up now?

Saigo: How am I supposed to shut u--

Kada: Have you forgotten?

Kada: If you go back on your word,

we'll have to eliminate you as well.

Kada: When laying siege to a castle,

what would you target first?

Kada: The weakest spot in the wall.

Kada: A seasoned soldier like yourself should be aware of this.

Agomi: M-Mama!

Agomi: Te-Teru-kun is... Teru-kun is...!

Saigo: Damn you!

Snack Otose

Otose: I see.

Otose: Very well.

Otose: Don't worry.

Otose: That was Gintoki.

Otose: It seems that Pirako is safe.

Otose: They learned about the new rule right before

they were about to take on Jirocho's g*ng.

Otose: Apparently, they were able to talk things through.

Shin: That's a relief.

Shin: I was worried that we would be too late.

Kagura: They kept us worried this whole time.

Kagura: What are they doing?!

Otose: I appreciate everything you've done.

Otose: You haven't eaten since yesterday, right?

Shin: Now that you mention it, I'm starting to feel hungry now that everything's okay.

Otose: Want to grab something to eat?

Kagura: Can we?

Catherine: Yakiniku!

Catherine: We must have yakiniku!

Catherine: At a really expensive place!

Kagura: Stupid!

Kagura: That won't fill my stomach!

Kagura: A buffet!

Kagura: At a place with ice cream!

Tama: Stop fighting.

Tama: Let's compromise by going to a gas station.

Shin: How is that a compromise?!

Otose: Go on ahead.

Otose: I'll join you once Gintoki and Pirako are back.

Shin: Please hurry.

Shin: We'll wait for you before we start eating.

Kagura: But the ice cream doesn't count, right?

Kagura: I can eat ice cream while we're waiting, right?

Shin: Didn't Otose-san seem a little strange?

Kagura: How?

Catherine: When she offers to buy someone dinner,

there's usually a catch.

Shin: No, that's not what I meant...

Shin: Oh, sorry.

Shin: He's covered in blood!

Shin: Sorry!

Shin: Is this my fault?!

Shin: Is this my fault?!

Shin: Huh?

Shin: It's Katsuo-san...

Kagura: Hey! The bucket that just ran past us...!

Gin: Gran!

Terada Family Grave

Otose: It's rare to see you here.

Otose: I'm assuming that you brought flowers.

Jirocho: Hell no.

Jirocho: Did you want me to bring flowers for you, Otose?

Otose: It's been years since you've spoken to me,

Otose: and that's all you have to say?

Otose: You never change.

Otose: If you lay me to rest next to my husband,

Otose: I suppose I can't complain.

Jirocho: I heard that you took care of my kid.

Otose: Save your thanks for that idiot.

Otose: Though apparently, that kid of yours got him good.

Otose: She's quite a dutiful daughter.

Otose: She came all the way here to clean

this town for the sake of a

stupid father who abandoned her.

Otose: We've both been dancing to the tune of a little kid.

Otose: The years haven't been kind to us.

Otose: Well, I suppose you knew what was happening.

Otose: The villain Jirocho

can't go against the daughter he left in tears?

Jirocho: Otose...

Jirocho: Get out of this town.

Jirocho: This place will become a b*ttlefield very soon.

Jirocho: It was gonna happen even if my kid didn't rush things along.

Jirocho: You'll only get in the way if you stay.

Otose: So you were planning on starting a w*r, period.

Terada Family Grave

Otose: I would have hoped that

you wouldn't say those words in his presence,

even as a joke.

Otose: Policeman and vigilante.

Otose: The two of you were both protecting this town,

despite your different positions,

Otose: but I suppose that was in the past.

Otose: Jirocho.

Otose: You went so far as to abandon your wife and child

Otose: so you could do this?

Jirocho: Times have changed.

Jirocho: A vigilante can't protect anything.

Jirocho: He d*ed and left you behind.

Jirocho: Your methods are old-fashioned.

Jirocho: You're just a nuisance,

Jirocho: both you and Tatsugoro.

Jirocho: This town doesn't need you anymore.

Jirocho: This town belongs to me.

Jirocho: I'll give you one more chance.

Jirocho: Get out of this town.

Otose: I have a favor to ask.

Otose: They call me one of the Four Devas,

Otose: but I don't have any members in my faction.

I'm sick of waiting for you to pay the rent. Take your fools and scram. Never come back to this town. --Otose

Otose: My life is all you need.

Otose: They serve no use at all.

Otose: They just happen to be my family.

Jirocho: Is that your answer?

Jirocho: You're Gintoki?

Jirocho: You were a step too late.

Jirocho: I buried her with her husband.

Jirocho: Funny how it works.

Jirocho: I believe that you were serving as her

bodyguard to pay back a debt?

Jirocho: That's over now. Your job is done.

Jirocho: Scram.

Jirocho: I'll spare your life for her sake.

Jirocho: Ouch...

Jirocho: The hell was that?

Jirocho: Not bad, kid.

You made me draw my sword.

Jirocho: But are you willing to let Otose's efforts to save your lives...

Jirocho: ...go to waste?

Jirocho: You're not being very reasonable.

Jirocho: It's over.

Jirocho: I heard that Otose was keeping a crazy monster around.

Jirocho: So you're the White Yaksha?

Jirocho: I never knew there was a freak like you following in my footsteps.

Jirocho: However...

Jirocho: A generation managed

to survive the brutal battles of the Joi w*r.

Jirocho: There were plenty more like you out there.

Jirocho: Get lost, watchdog.

Jirocho: There's nothing for you to protect here.

Gin: Hey, Gran.

Gin: Are those manju?

Gin: Can I have some?

Gin: I'm starving to death here.

Otose: These belong to my husband.

Otose: Ask him.

Otose: What did my husband say?

Gin: Beats me.

Gin: The dead don't talk.

Otose: You're just asking for it.

Otose: Don't blame me if you get cursed.

Gin: The dead don't talk and they don't eat dango.

Gin: So I made a one-sided promise.

Gin: I won't forget this debt.

Gin: Your wife doesn't have that much longer to live,

Gin: but I'm going to protect her in your stead.

Gin: Gran...
