The Samurai
The Book of Death
S8 • E2 Jul 12, 1964 24m
The Lord of Night summons the Phantom ninja and explains his plans to topple Sadanobu. Kongo crosses off the first name in the "book of death", Kawayama Daizaburō. Hagenbō and Yamizato set a trap to kill the Iga ninja and Tonbei who are next on the list. They capture three Iga sent to Kōga to see if the Phantom ninja have returned and take them to a temple to lure out the Iga and kill them, aided by Kongō impersonating Aoi in such a way as to cause Tonbei to think the samurai is in league with the Phantom ninja.
