Suddenly a man wearing a white ape-skin cloak appears and offers Sesshomaru a new arm- a human arm impregnated with a Shikon shard. The man tells Sesshomaru that with a human are he will be able to grip Inuyasha's Tessaiga. Before Sesshomaru departs, the man gives him a hive as well, and then tells them his name is Naraku. Inuyasha and the others are staying in a small sea-side village where Miroku is exorcising some demons for room and board. Suddenly Kagome senses something approaching quickly. A giant ogre comes forth and Sesshomaru is riding on it's shoulder.

64: 別れ
Wakare
(Separate Ways)
As Sesshomaru retreats the wasps that stung Miroku follow after him. He removes the remnants of the arm that now seems to be trying to devour him and tosses it back to the wasps, which return it, and it's Shikon shard to Naraku. Suddenly Sesshomaru is standing behind Naraku and slices his head off. The disembodied voice of Naraku echoes through the forest telling them he may call on them again. Meanwhile Miroku pays his Tanuki partner to take them back to Musashi's Domain so Inuyasha can heal. Inuyasha walks Kagome back to the Bone-Eater's Well where he apologizes for endangering her life, hugs her, and then takes the Shikon shards they had collected and throws her down the well, commanding her never to return. Kagome immediately tries to go back to the Sengoku Era, but finds the well doesn't seem to work anymore.

Miroku asks Inuyasha about the circumstances regarding his first meeting with Naraku 50 years ago. Inuyasha explains that he only knew him to look like Kikyo, and was not sure of his true form. Miroku believes that perhaps Naraku hated Kikyo, and not Inuyasha. Back in the modern Tokyo, Kagome goes back to school, and tells her friends her uniform got bloody so she has to wear normal clothes to school. At school all she can do is think about Inuyasha. In the past Kaede is treating Inuyasha's battle wounds and explains that perhaps Naraku wanted more than just the Shikon Jewel all those years ago. Perhaps he wanted to win Kikyo's love. She tells them of a man that wanted to see the Shikon Jewel defiled and takes them to where the man once lived. Miroku and Inuyasha travel with Kaede to a small cave where a man named Onigumo once lived. When Kikyo met him he was horrible burned over his entire body and both of his legs had been crushed after he fell from a cliff. Onigumo was a very evil man, but Kikyo still saw that he was taken care of. One day he told Kaede that he wished to see Kikyo and the Jewel defiled, and shortly afterwards Kikyo and Inuyasha met their untimely ends. Kaede went to check on him a few days later, but found his cave had been burned. She assumed his campfire got out of control and being unable to move, Onigumo was burned to death. Inuyasha explains that he is looking for a demon, not a human, and the group travel into his cave.
