This is the fourth in the series broadcast in 1983 on Fuji Television's "Historical Drama Special". Sanzo and Gosuke's journey to Edo is filled with laughter, tears, and danger. The effective use of Kiso-bushi brings tears to the viewer's eyes. On their way to the Owari, former Onmitsus Sanzo and Yumenogosuke get lost in the Kiso Mountains. There they encounter a hidden gold mine being demolished by the Mino Naegi clan. The two join a beautiful girl named Tsubakuro Osen (Kana Akiko), whom they meet in the mountains, to extort the Nabeki clan. They reach an agreement with Kageyama Taito (Kondo Yosuke), the Metsukegashira, to receive 300 ryo in three days, but suddenly the Naeki clan is stripped of its power by the authorities. It was a plot by Sakai Wakasamori (Endo Tatsuro), an Roju, and Saegusa Kanmotsu (Funado Jun), an Edo Karor of the Owari domain.
