Ch.56: The Fastest Two
Amachi has been shot! Cho uses him to threaten Gongu to surrender the battle. However, it is revealed that Amachi was being used by his own comrade. Sojirou then faces off with Itekura and tries to use his speed to attack him head-on but Itekura seems unfazed. Sojirou then apologizes to Kenshin as he reveals that he must kill Itekura with his ultimate attack!
A shot has been fired...!!

(Pg.2)
Cho: What the hell is... that sword?
Gongu: It’s quite a thing, isn’t it?
It’s the Meiji-born Killing Sword.
.jpg)
Gongu: Hey, there’s no shame in it if you don’t know. This guy is a phantom sword created only in design by the swordsmith,
Shakku Arai.
(Pg.3)
Gongu: He devised it after the end of the age of
the sword. But for some strange reason, it was
sealed away. A Kenkaku Heiki then obtained, improved it, and made it into a sword. It's named, Gouka no Taiken. *The Great Hellfire Sword
.jpg)
Cho: What a fake! No wonder it’s inaccurate.
Piercing bullets are unlikely to kill you.
Thanks to hitting the kid, it saved me.
If you leave him as he is, the boy will die.
But if you try and save him, I’ll kill him myself.
Drop that damn sword! Get down on the ground with your hands on your head!
(Pg.4)
Amachi: North... 3... inches
Gongu: Slow… You’re too slow, Amachi.
.jpg)
Gongu: I can overlook the lack of using that ability of yours but… I guess I have no choice but to "let it go" since you couldn't use it in the right place.
Cho: It's not a misfire... This guy from the start...
(Pg.5)
Cho: He was shooting at the kid!!
The friendly tone of voice! The friendly behavior! It was all part of a fake plan of this guy!
.jpg)
Gongu: Have you noticed? This is "Gouka no Taiken" which always disguises everything for a single move in case of emergency. This is... my battle style: Gishiin Anki *Suspicious Fake
Kenkaku Heiki: Gigou (Fake)
Gongu' Gougou
(Pg. 6)
Gongu: You're still too green to
call yourself a villain, Cho-chan.

(Pg. 7)
The new TV anime “Rurouni Kenshin” is now airing!!

(Pg. 9-10)
Itekura: Are you feeling better, Battousai?
I am well.
.jpg)
Sojirou: Doesn’t seem like it.
You look all battered and worn out.
(Pg. 11)
Itekura: “Hiten” and “Tenken”.
The fastest two now stand before me.
.jpg)
Now, which way shall we begin? You can come up here if you want. I don’t care if it’s both of you at the same time, okay?
Take your pick!
Kenshin: Ite...
Sojirou: We all know from the past that discussions are not effective.
Still, if you want to talk about it once more, I’ll tell you after I’ve beaten you.
(Pg. 12)
Sojirou: Himura-san must not be at his best yet. I'll go.
.jpg)
Sojirou: If you want, I can take him down myself.
Two steps short of the Shukuchi.
(Pg. 13-14)
Itekura: So you've come,Tenken!!

(Pg. 15-16)

(Pg. 17)

Kenshin: Even on this foothold, he's still as blindingly fast as ever. But…
Sojirou: Huh?
(Pg. 18)
Itekura: I’ve been so distracted that I forgot I didn’t have a blade.
.jpg)
Sojirou: Oh, man.
I don’t get it. This is a loan from Cho-san.
Kenshin: Be careful, Sojirou.
Itekura with his strong body, doesn’t care what we do.
He’ll grab you without a second thought!
The moment of the closest attack is the most dangerous, that it is.
(Pg. 19)
Sojirou: Yeah, I know that because I saw it.
I mean, that’s not what I thought.
.jpg)
Kenshin What?
Sojirou: I’ll go again.
One step short of the Shukuchi.
(Pg. 20)
.jpg)
(Pg. 21)
Itekura: I was aiming for the neck, though.
Sojirou: I had a good shot, too.
.jpg)
(Pg. 22
Sojirou: I aimed hard, but I could only cut... A breastplate... (weighted clothes or armor)
Take a good look, Himura-san. At first glance, that man looks battered and bruised. But all those blows are from the Sakabatou you gave him in the previous battle.
.jpg)
Sojirou: I don't care if a sword is good or bad, but I won't use a reverse-blade sword. At the very least, I use a sword that can kill.
He’s a strange one. For some reason, my “slashes” aren't having any effect.
(Pg. 23)
Kenshin: That's.. Seki Riki!!
*Radiant power or brilliance
It's the physical improvement technique unique to the Kenkaku Heiki used by the opponents that Sano, Saitou, and others fought.
.jpg)
Sojirou: I'm gonna get serious. I've been one or two steps short until now...
You will not be able to see, let alone break my battle style.
Kenshin: Let me take over, Sojirou.
The current Itekura is different from the last time.
Sojirou: I'd like to apologize in advance. I’m sorry.
(Pg. 24)
Sojirou: I was trying to avoid it in front of the non-killing Himura-san. I can’t take him down unless I kill that person.
.jpg)
Kenshin: Wait, Sojirou, let me take over!
Sojirou!!
(Pg. 25)
Itekura: Come, Tenken, strongest of the Juppongatana. The right hand of the Demon that controls the flames.
.jpg)
Sojirou: Here I go.
Itekura: Show me your true “Fighting spirit.” (form) Sojirou Seta
(Pg. 26)
Sojirou: Shukuchi: Shuntensatsu

Heaven’s name is engraved in the final secret attack…
