Ranmaru：（御堂心吾の構えが変わった）
(Midou Shingo’s stance has changed)

Zen：（さっきまでOO槍を長い持OOやがる）
(He’s holding that damn spear out even further than he was before)*
***TRANSLATOR’S NOTE***: The ‘O’ spaces represent an unknown number of characters that are unreadable in the scan. I have consulted with the scanner, and they found that the characters are also unreadable in the printed copy. Therefore, I have made my best guess at what this line might be based on the characters I can read and the surrounding context, but I can make no guarantee about its accuracy until the volume comes out. Thank you for your understanding.

Naoyoshi：(我間　刀では・・・・)
(Gama, this distance....)

Naoyoshi：（遠すぎるぞ）
(It’s too far)
Naoyoshi：（この間合い――――）
(For a sword------)

Ranmaru：（・・・・しかも　あの馬鹿デカイ槍がもつ迫力と圧倒的殺傷力）
(....Then there’s the intensity and destructive power of that ridiculously huge spear)

Ranmaru：（槍を向けられた相手は・・・・）
(The person who has it pointed at them...)

Ranmaru：（凄まじいまでの精神的圧力を）
(Will feel a terrifying level)
Ranmaru：（一身に受けることになる――――！！）
(Of mental pressure------!!)

Gama：（しかし　すげぇなこの槍・・・・正直怖ぇ・・・・）
(Man, that spear is really something....honestly, it’s pretty scary....)

Gama：（この間合いじゃ鳴神やら紫電閃で一気に倒すのは無理だな・・・・）
(At this distance it’d be impossible to defeat him in one shot by using Narukami* or Shidensen*....)
MARGIN NOTE: Rumbling God and Purple Lightning Flash, respectively.
Gama：（どうにかあの槍の切っ先をはずしてからでないと刀の間合いには飛び込めない）
(And I can’t jump into sword range until after I’ve somehow moved that spear tip out of the way)

Page 03
Gama：（狙いはやっぱり奴の攻撃の直後以外はない！）
(There really isn’t any chance other than right after his attack!)

Banri：来るぞ・・・・“金剛三法”
Here it comes....Kongou Sanpou*
MARGIN NOTE: *The Three Moves of the Vajra. The Vajra is a Buddhist ritual tool that symbolically possesses the qualities of a diamond and a thunderbolt.

Gama：（ヤツが切っ先をはずした！？）
(He moved the spear tip away!?)
Gama：（よしっ――――）
(Alright------)

Page 04
Gama：（！？）
(!?)

Gama：（なっ！？　いつの間に横から！？）
(Huh!? From the side!? When the hell did he!?)

Zen：あぶねぇ！！
Look out!!

Shingo：遅ぇ！
Too slow!

Gama：くっ
Kuh

Page 05
Gama：ぐぅ
Guh
Gama：（腕がちぎりそうだ！！なんて威力だ！！）
(What incredible force!! My arm was almost torn off!! )
SFX：ビリッ
*throb*
SFX：ビリッ
*throb*

Banri：フ・・・・
Heh....
Banri：第一法　阿形右旋
The First Move: Agyou Usen*
MARGIN NOTE: *Clockwise rotation in the form of the sound of the beginning of the Universe.

Banri：（動きは小さいが鋭く早く槍を回転させる技だ）
(This technique uses only a slight movement, but causes the spear to rotate quickly and sharply)

Banri：（心吾の力と鬼断の“重さ”によりその威力は並の槍とは比べモノにならん――――）
(A normal spear can’t even compare to the force produced by Shingo’s strength and Onidachi’s weight------)

Banri：（さらに）
(And then)

Banri：（第二法　吽形左旋）
(There’s the Second Move: Ungyou Sasen*)
MARGIN NOTE: *Counter-clockwise rotation in the form of the sound of the end of the Universe.

SFX：チッ
Swish

Gama：（食らえば即死！！頭がコナゴナになる！！）
(It’s instant death if that hits me!! My head’ll be pulverized!!)

Ichiou：ホウ・・・・
Ho....

Naoyoshi：（ぎりぎり）
(He barely dodged it)

Page 07
Gama：（・・・・よし　かわした！）
(....Alright, I dodged it!)

Gama：（ここが攻め時）
(Now it’s time to attack)

Gama：！？
!?

Gama：（バカな！）
(No way!)
Gama：（もう突きの構えに――――！？）
(He’s back to a thrusting stance------!?)

Page 08
Shingo：（第三法）
(The Third Move)

Shingo：（“羅漢直突”）
(Rakan Jikazuki*)
MARGIN NOTE: *Direct Thrust of the Arhat. An arhat is someone in Buddhism who has achieved Nirvana.

Gama：！！？
!!?

Nao & Zen：！！
!!

Gama：がぁ！！
Gaah!!

Shingo：（ホウ・・何とか命だけは死守したか　だが　もう――――）
(Ho..you gave all you had and managed to protect your life, but it’s already------)

Page 10
Naoyoshi：（ま・・まずい！）
(N-No good!)
Naoyoshi：（アイツ意識が飛んで――――）
(He’s losing consciousness------)

Naoyoshi：避けろぉ　我間ァ！！
Dodge, Gama!!

Gama：！？
!?

Gama：！！
!!

Page 11
Shingo：死ね！！
Die!!

Nao & Zen：！！！

Shingo：フン・・・・
Hmph....

Page 12
Shingo：しぶてぇ野郎だ・・・・
Tough little bastard....

Gama：・・・・フフ
....Heheh

Gama：右足にちっと食った・・けどね・・・・・
It grazed my right leg..though....

Page 13
Naoyoshi：く・・・・何とかかわしたか・・・・
Kuh....he dodged it, somehow....
Ranmaru：まともにやっては手も足も出んな・・
Attacking head on won’t get him anywhere..

Ranmaru：（このままでは負けるぞ・・）
(You’re going to lose at this rate..)

Ranmaru：（どうする？黒鉄我間・・・・）
(What will you do, Kurogane Gama....?)

Ranmaru：（戦型を変えて以降奴の一連の攻撃にはまったくスキがなくなった）
(Ever since he changed his kata there hasn’t been a single opening in his chain of attacks)
Ranmaru：（ただ避けているだけでは間合いを詰めることすらできん）
(Gama won’t even be able to get close to him by merely continuing to avoid his attacks)

Ichiou：金剛三法
Kongou Sanpou
Ichiou：鬼断の力を最大限に引き出すために完成した戦型だ・・
The combat kata perfected for the purpose of drawing out Onidachi’s full power..

Ichiou：（“金剛三法”とは機千機万の敵の技を三技のみで制圧する）
(It has dominated thousands upon thousands of enemy techniques with only three moves)
Ichiou：（“鬼断”を受け継ぐ者の戦型なり）
(It is the kata of the one who inherits Onidachi)

Page 14
Shingo：どーだい我間？
Well, Gama
Shingo：俺の鬼断は？
What do you think of my Onidachi?

Shingo：もう足元がフラついてるみてーだが？
Seems your legs are already unsteady, yeah?
Gama：・・・・・・
......

Gama：フフ・・・・四神槍か・・・・一応名前負けはしてないみたいだな・・
Heheh....The Four Divine Spears, huh....? For the time being it looks like you guys live up to your name..
Shingo：何？
What?

Gama：・・・・でもまあ・・・・
....But, you know....
Gama：勝つ手が全く無いわけじゃない・・
It’s not like I don’t have any chance at all..

Page 15
Shingo：ホォ・・・・
Ho....

Shingo：今のを受けてまだ勝てると？
After taking that you still think you can win?

Gama：・・・・試してみれば？
....Wanna try me?

Shingo：フッ
Heh
Shingo：（その威勢だけは）
(That nerve)
Shingo：（嫌いじゃないぜ！！）
(Is the only thing I don’t hate about you!!)

Page 16
Gama：！！
!!

Gama：つ――――――
Ow--------

Shingo：（やっぱオメェ・・）
(Just as I thought..)
Shingo：（完全に足にキてんじゃねーかよ！）
(Your legs are totally out of commission!)

Naoyoshi：！！
!!
Naoyoshi：まずい！！
No!!

Shingo：（限界みてーだな・・）
(Looks like this is your limit..)

Page 17
Shingo：（今度こそもらった！！）
(I’ve got you this time for sure!!)

Gama：（御堂の槍はただ避けてもダマだ）
(I can’t just dodge his spear)
Gama：（それじゃスキはつけない）
(That won’t create any openings)

Gama：（なら――――）
(So------)

Gama：！
!

Page 18 + Page 19
Naoyoshi：我間ぁ！！！
Gamaaa!!!

Naokatsu：（勝った）
(We won)

Page 20
Shingo：（！？）
(!?)

Gama：・・・・フゥ
....Phew

Shingo：（俺の槍がはずれた！？）
(My spear missed!?)
Gama：何とか上手く掴まえられたか・・
I managed to get a good grip on it..

Shingo：（いや・・・・そんなはずはない！）
(No....that can’t be!)
Shingo：（今のは間違いなくとらえたはず――――！！）
(That should’ve definitely got him------!!)

Shingo：（コイツ・・・・一体何をしやがった！！）
(This twerp....what the hell did do!?)
Gama：避けてダメなら掴まえるってことで――――
If I can’t dodge it, then that means I’ve gotta grab it------
