01x37 - Yami no shinobu · masho tsukai chimu

[bunniefuu]

In the second round of the Dark Tournament,
Dr. Ichigaki used humans

that he had converted into k*lling machines
after he had set a trap for them,

plunging Yusuke
and the others into danger.

However, thanks to the
actions of the Masked Warrior,

En, Ryo, and Kai regained
control of their minds.

They won against the Dr. Ichigaki Team,

but the Urameshi Team
has no time to rest,

as their next match has
already been prepared for them!

Their foe for the third round
is the Mashotsukai Team.

"Stealthy Figures of Darkness:
The Mashotsukai Team."

It's okay, just hang in there.

Kuwabara can't fight.

We'll have to fight somehow
with just the four of us.

He's not the only one who can't fight.

Mask's remaining spiritual
power has got to be pretty low.

In that case, the three
of us will have to fight.

On top of that,

Hiei's right hand is injured,
so he can't use it.

Who is going to go? Whoever wants to
fight first will be our representative.

I'll go!

It's Jin!

It's Jin, the Wind-tamer!

Jin, the Wind-tamer?

If that's the case, then don't
tell me those guys are...?

You know them?

Yeah. They're famous Yokai. Mashotsukai
would seem to be an assumed name.

Their true identities are the
Stealthy Figures of the Demon Realm.

Stealthy figures? You mean ninja?

There are groups that work behind the
scenes of various Yokai power struggles,

known as Demon Realm Ninja.

These guys are the most feared
among them, the Specters of Asura.

Please decide the manner
in which you will fight.

One-on-one elimination.

We'll keep fightin' till
there are no opponents left.

Fine with me.

It is decided that the manner of
fighting will be one-on-one elimination!

Jin! Crush those humans all at once!

Yusuke, watch yourself!

You know, it's shameful
that Kazuma can't fight.

Such an invitin' breeze...

You possess a fine wind.

MASHOTSUKAI TEAM / URAMESHI TEAM

Now then, before the third round,

the administrative office
will conduct a medical check.

Medical check?

This is to give special treatment to the
conditions of those on the Urameshi Team,

who must fight consecutively,
owing to the day's schedule.

Please wait for one moment.

What the hell are they trying to do?

Who's that?

Leave them be, leave them be!

There's no reason for you to
treat those human b*stards!

It's just a waste of time!

She's a nursie-chan!

You and you, can I have
you come with me, please?

I don't need your help.

Why don't you look at the
guy lying down behind me?

I'm only going to ask you
fighters two or three questions.

It will be over right away.

Hurry up and get started!

Those guys are going to
kick the bucket anyhow!

Hey, slug me one!

It's okay, slug me as hard as you can!

B-But I couldn't!

That's an order! Quickly!
Quickly, quickly, slug me!

O-Okay, but afterward, please
don't go griping about this!

Right then, if you'll excuse me...

That will do fine!

Now, to have that beautiful, kind-looking
nursie-chan treat my injury!

G-Good grief...

And now, for my questions.
Are you in any pain anywhere?

No.

Do you feel sick at all?
How is your stomach?

Are you mocking us?

It appears you have
a lot of stress built up.

You should indeed get a little rest.

You idiot. Try healing your own brain!

What is this?!

It's a trap!

Hey! What is that?!

It's a barrier!

A barrier?!

Hey, you! What are you trying to pull?!

What?!

I am Ruka, the Periphery Master!

Periphery Master?!

I pride myself on my ability
to cast defensive walls

among the foremost in the Demon Realm!

The ability to cast defensive walls?!

The ability to use spells to
create walls that protect things.

In other words, no matter how much
Yoki or Reiki they project at it,

it won't be an easy matter for them
to break that barrier!

That is correct.

Let those two out of there!

It is useless for you to make any fuss,
or to put up a struggle.

They cannot leave here.

Sokujucho!!

Sokujucho shackles, huh? If they aren't
careful their bodies will weaken.

Just moving around is dangerous!

Huh?! She's not a nursie-chan?

Geez, I shouldn't have
gotten this lump, then.

Thank you so much for
slugging me so hard earlier.

I-I told you I didn't want to do it.

-Why, you...! Let me hit you once!
-Now, come on, Koenma-sama!

As a result of their medical checks,
Contestant Hiei and the Masked Contestant

have been judged to be generally
unfit to fight in the third round.

They will not be able to appear,

in order for them to receive
medical treatment.

Wha...?!

The Urameshi Team has to continue
their matches without any time to rest!

What's more, Hiei and the Masked Warrior
have fallen into a trap and are locked up!

Now then, I wonder what manner
of fighting they're going to show us!

What do you mean, "generally"?!

You trapped us! Explain this!

I-I'm in a neutral position
towards our guests.

I don't know anything about this.

Neutral, you say?!

It's no use.

What?!

Undoubtedly, this has
to have been a trap.

However, ironically enough,

though they're hiding it, those two are
really in no shape to be fighting.

Ordinarily, those two ought to be able

to break their way through
that level of barrier.

Their bodies have become so
weak that they cannot do that.

But will this cruel twist of fate be
a turn for the better or for the worse?

Now it's two against five, huh, Jin?

You could put them away all by yourself.

Whatever. I've changed my mind.
Someone else go!

What?

I'll be watching.

You're as self-serving
a b*stard as always.

Stop your grumbling and get out there!

Don't you go tellin' me what to do!

That lousy Jin...

Someone who he can really test
himself against finally comes along,

and he's in a fine mood!

So who wants to fight first?

Very well, I'll go.

BODY PAINT-BEARER GAMA

I am the Body Paint-bearer, Gama!

Howdy!

Kurama!

I'd like to say I can put
all of these guys away...

but judging from their Yoki, it doesn't
look like they're going to allow that.

I'll find out as much as I can of
what they have up their sleeves.

The rest will be up to you.

Kurama versus Gama! Begin!

By its nature, there is an enormous
magical power that lies within body paint.

Even among humans,
the females use makeup

in their everyday lives to bewitch others.

Particularly during times of festival,
it possesses a special magical power!

I will show you the true
magical power of body paint,

using the special properties
of my own makeup!

Sento no sho!!

What's this? Contestant Gama has
placed a pattern over his entire body!

His Yoki is rising sharply!

The embedded-Yoki power type...!

I'll have to k*ll him with the Rose Whip,
without getting close to him!

Contestant Gama launches
an incredible succession of attacks!

Contestant Kurama has
no chance to strike back!

He's waiting to determine the nature of
his opponent before choosing his tactics.

That's a bad habit Kurama has.

With that much speed, it will be hard for
him to find a chance to produce a weapon.

I won't give you enough time
to turn your plants into weapons!

I'm going to finish you off like this!

Now!

My leg!

W-What is this?

How about that? Your leg
must be as heavy as lead!

Oh, no!

What? You mean if he writes
on you with those brushes,

it slows down your movements?!

You can no longer escape from me!

You can't get away!
Not from the body paint of death!

Kurama!

Amazingly, it seems that Contestant Gama

can use his cursed body paint
on his opponents, as well!

It affects their speed and attack power!
Contestant Kurama is in a great pinch!

The makeup that Gama produces
can pass through any fabric,

and adhere directly to the skin.

It also serves as an antenna,
to pick up the curse.

Once you're caught up in it,
there's no way to escape.

I've got you!

Gokujo no Sho!!

GOKUJO NO SHO:
GILDING OF FETTERS

I have robbed your
limbs of their freedom!

Kurama! Take off your clothes!

Impossible! It's as if he had 200-kilo iron
ba*ls cuffed to each of his arms and legs.

If you're not going to move an inch,
then have you resigned yourself?

Oh, dear! Contestant Kurama's
arms and legs have been locked up!

Will this be the end for him?!

What are you going to do, Kurama?!

He's going to be k*lled!

Now then, I'll finish this with one blow!

Brace yourself!

Rose Whip!!

W-What? Your hair?

Sorry about that, but my arms and
legs aren't the only things I can use.

Attaboy, Kurama!

Oh! What an incredible turnabout!

Incredibly, Contestant Kurama
controlled his whip using his hair,

and inflicted decisive
damage upon Contestant Gama!

I blew it right at the end!

It may have taken a bit more trouble,

but I should have
barred all of your Yoki!

You'd best not talk too much.
The match is over.

If you don't release the Yoki
you're using for the spell on me,

and turn it toward healing yourself,
you'll be in real jeopardy.

We'll see about that.
This match isn't over yet!

Even under your spell,
I am still faster than you are.

Don't die needlessly!

It would be a shame
for a pro like you to die.

I'm honored...

Stop! If you strain yourself
by moving, you really will die!

It's no use! Stop this!

H-He's down! I will begin the count.

1...

There's no use in counting.

2...

He will not get up again.

3...

4...

5...

I've bottled you up!

What?

You... were watchful of my brushes...
but you were careless about my blood...

Let me tell you what my makeup
really is... It's my blood!

CURSE OF CONTAINMENT

Nembaku Fuju no Sho!!

NEMBAKUFUJU NO SHO:
SPELLBINDING MAKEUP OF CONTAINMENT

Nembaku Fuju no Sho?!

Your Reiki has been
completely bottled up.

This is what it is to be a ninja...

A ninja?

To choose death, in order
to obtain the victory ahead.

Even after I die, my Yoki will
not disappear for some time...

Let's see if you can dodge
your next opponent until then...

You will be defeated by my friends.

Next challenger, come forward!

Kurama can't fight!

Toya, the Hexed Ice-user!
He's the next opponent?!

Well done, Gama. I will not
allow your death to be in vain.

I will avenge you!

What kind of techniques
does this new opponent,

Toya, the Hexed Ice-user, possess?

Kuwabara is injured,

and Hiei and the Masked Warrior
are sealed up in a barrier.

And now, bathed in the blood of Gama,
Kurama is unable to move.

Is there any chance of victory
for the Urameshi Team?

Kurama!

What?! Here Yusuke and Kurama
are the only two who can fight,

and Kurama has had his
spiritual powers bottled up?!

Fighting against Toya like
this could be death-defying!

It's incredibly dangerous!

At this point... Eh, what?

You're saying I should go fight?
You idiot!

Next time, "A Tragic Kurama!
Body Paint of Death."

I'm still the owner, here!
