Damn, the action in this chapter was great. The kusa are trying to go in on Itto. Doing all they can to take him out, but Itto is prepared and he's putting up a great fight. Even while having to hold Diagoro, which makes things so much harder and yet it doesn't even seem to hinder him. I see another reason why Itto dug holes. The kusa are strapped with explosives that they're using to either blow themselves up right before they die or blowing themselves up as soon as they're within range in an attempt to kill Itto. Itto decides to jump in the river to help negate some of the explosive power since he can go under water as needed.
