Ginga Densetsu Weed EP15 - The Zetsu Tenrou Battouga!

Having hauled himself up on some rocks in the river bank, Jerome comes across some dogs he suspects to be Kamakiri's followers. The Ohu army follows Jerome's blood trail, led by GB. At another part of the river, Kamakiri takes his anger out on a minion of his, slashing his neck underwater. He then prepares to go to the Alps with his army to meet up with Hougen. The Ohu army is led to a misty area, where many shadowy dogs surround them and suddenly escape. GB, Ken, Kagetora and some other dogs chase after them against Weed's order and Weed chases to stop them and they all fall into a hot spring. The shadowy dogs are revealed to be Tesshin and his clan of ninja dogs. They also find Jerome in the hot spring, having been taken there by the ninja dogs. Tesshin relays Gin's massage to Weed and everyone gets in a rush to rescue the leader, but says that they cannot forcefully make wounded soldiers fight and should rest just for at least a little while. One night, weed is thinking about his mother, when Tesshin comes and tells him about the technique his father used to kill Akakabuto called the Zetsu Tenrou Battouga. The others arrive to see Weed executing the Battouga on a tree branch and GB recounts how Weed used the Battouga the first time he saved him to cut off the guard dog's ear. The Ohu army begins training under Tesshin on how to use different attack methods and Weed finally masters the Battouga. One night, when a part of Kyoshiro's army, Rocket and Jerome are resting in the hot spring, a trio of vicious, dog-eating wild boars attack them and the leader of the boars, Sancho, kills one of Kyoshiro's reckless minions. Kyoshiro, Weed and the others come and Kyoshiro angrily tries to attack the boar, but Jerome stops them as Sancho begins chasing them in the water. Weed executes his first learned Battouga on Sancho and cracks his skull, killing him. The other two boars flee in fear. Weed is dragged out of the water and is unconscious and Tesshin advises rest for him, as a Battouga takes up a lot of energy. Meanwhile, in the Alps, Kamakiri's army reaches Hougen's hut and Kamakiri refuses to wait even though the guards tell him to and enters without permission inside Hougen's hut. Hougen, seeing Kamakiri's arrogance and disobedience, pins him down in an embarrassing manner, but in the end, decides to keep him as part of his army. With their armies combined and powerful, Hougen and Kamakiri decide to set out towards Ohu. Due to the hot spring, Jerome's bullet wound heals, but when Tesshin tells him that if they don't take out the bullet from the wound, it'll become an infection, Jerome tells him that he wants to keep it as a punishment for sending his past comrades to death without thinking twice. With Tesshin and the ninja dogs, Weed departs from Kishu.
