Third person POV
Kuro and his group kept on chasing Shuten Dōji across the city. Taro fires his Negative Energy bullets towards it, but it dodges his attacks every time. Bokuto then tried to use his ninja skills to gain an advantage on it, but that didn't work, too, due to Shuten Dōji's flexibility.
And then, at 8:35 p.m., Shuten Dōji arrived at a dilapidated and rundown house northwest of the city and went in through the broken, wooden sliding doors, before shutting it close. It then locked it. Then, Kuro and his group arrived there and saw the house the Yokai just entered.
"Is this its lair?" Mariya asked.
"I think so," Saki answered back.
Although they didn't witness Shuten Dōji entering the house, they assumed that it was the Yokai's lair and home.
So, Kuro and Sha tried to slide the front door open, but the door was locked.
In response to that, they both used their weapons to break through like burglars.
It did the trick, and this startled Shuten Dōji, who was busy caressing her the faces of its "slaves", who were actually the three missing women, including the two female Takada Sake employees. Then, Kuro and his group entered in facing the Yokai. But upon seeing the three women in chains, they were shocked with surprise.
"Three women?"
"What is going on here?"
Shuten Dōji was agitated by their presence, before being a bit upset at them.
"Help us!" shouted one of the women.
"This monster is going to hurt us!" added another.
Hearing their pleas, Kuro said to his group, "Alright, guys, I'll attack this demon, while you guys go and set those women free." And so, his group agreed, and with that, Kuro wielded his scythe weapon and charged toward Shuten Dōji, slashing its ogre's neck. While Shuten Dōji was weakened by it, Bokuto and the others snuck past it to set its slaves free. Sha and Bokuto used their weapons to break the chains, and Mariya, Saki, and Taro helped them stand and get out of the Yokai's hellhole.
But then, seeing that its pleasure slaves had escaped, Shuten Dōji was enraged at Kuro, Bokuto, Saki, and Sha, so it swung its arm to hit them with its canteen. Sha then sliced its canteen in response, breaking it into pieces. This horrified the Yokai, and it retaliated by opening its mouth and letting out a big burp containing the rotten smell of Japanese alcoholic wine. That one is so rotten it is said that it can melt wood. But Kuro and the others dodged that, and Saki attacked back by casting a water spell with her staff. The burp attack then struck the wooden wall behind them, and it melted like butter before the burp dissipated into nothing.
This douses Shuten Dōji in water, and it gets disoriented by it.
Bokuto then did a ninja kick on its stomach, causing it to fall to the ground.
"Damned you all…" it let out a curse on them.
Kuro and Sha then pointed their weapons at it.
"Surrender or be banished to the underworld," Sha said to it coldly and seriously.
But Shuten Dōji just laughed at them like a maniac. "Never, you foolish mortals! I'll do this until I get a harem of female slaves for myself! They're my property and pleasure!" It then continued to laugh, making fun of them. Kuro and his group were disgusted by it, and Kioko heard its laughter through their little microphones on their torso clothes. She couldn't believe that she just heard the laugh of a Yokai.
Because of Shuten Dōji's initial stubbornness, Kuro and his group decided to end its reign in the overworld by banishing it into the underworld. So, they stuck their warding spells and talismans on their weapons and then, struck Shuten Dōji with them. This causes the Yokai to be wrapped in light and, it falls into the underworld via a portal. Shuten Dōji's drunken rampage and slaveholding days are over.
