Short chapter, mostly focused on Diagoro. Diagoro ends up getting used by some young man to make him money. He has Diagoro sit on a mat and stare at a bowl with a sign that says he's hungry and needs help. People passing by feel pity for him and give him money. Then the young man comes by to collect it. He was nice enough to feed Diagoro at least, since Itto was not around, but after they eat, he puts Diagoro back on the mat to collect more money while he goes and takes a nap. Some samurai men approach at which point Itto comes out to kill them. The young man wakes up when he hears the fighting, so he gets worried about Diagoro. Itto kills all the men and Diagoro jumps into his arms so they can leave. At this point, the young man is pissing himself and drops all the money he collected after realizing that Itto is Diagoro's father and he's a dangerous man and messed with the wrong child. Haha
