Chapter 1008 summary
Ashura Doji laughs and explains that Toki sent him forward in time. Kin'emon and the others kneel in shock and weep, convinced the figure before them is Oden. One ally draws a sword and accuses the man of being an impostor. Ashura Doji strikes the figure, who does not bleed, confirming the deception. The impostor stands revealed as Kanjuro. A woman lunges at Kanjuro with her sword but misses. She falls and apologizes to Ashura Doji for failing to deal with Kanjuro earlier.
