He is sent to siege Iwamura Castle, which he obtains, then Oda Nabunaga attempts to take it. Taro, now known as Murakami Harutomo, is sent to Kofuchu with a message. He hears that his friend Yoshitoki died as well as his master Wada Kansuke. He hears that Nobunaga has taken Iwamura. He attempts to avenge Akiyama's death. He marries Aki-hime, who he has loved for a long time. He goes back to his old life."
