As the prime minister of Chu and one of the Four Lords of the Warring States, he serves as a figure to oversee the coalition as a whole, with Ri Boku serving as the strategist. They proceed to discuss the attack on Kanyou.
Meanwhile, in Kanyou, Shou Hei Kun reveals that with Qin's current military strength, they cannot hope to stop the coalition. However, to give them a fighting chance, all defense lines are abandoned to focus on one key defensive position, Kankoku Pass, national gate. Chou Tou explains to Kan Ki that Kankoku Pass, located at the entrance to Kanyou, has never been defeated. Elsewhere, the Hi Shin Unit have received their orders and is heading towards the national gate. They see swarms of Qin troops also rallying towards the final defense.
