This sword was so extremely sharp that the lord cut 8 bamboo with it in just one blow. And the cut was mirror-smooth. The also pleased craftsman asked where the lord is going. The lord replied that the bandits were in rebellion, and that he wanted to form a team of six to go fight them, while still saying how rare the sword was. Then, he bade farewell to the Taoist priest and departed with the big four.
The monk then put the book of Pursuit in the hall for prayer, and wished them a safe journey. When they arrived at Tamba, the leader of the bandits, who called himself Shutendouji, led the crowd to besiege them. The lord drew his sword with bated breath, and smote him down with a single blow. The band of bandits then scattered, and the lord, having seized the head, returned. After that, he sealed the swordin Emishi, and wished the
world peace.
