Ichiyo and Syurin grow closer playing together in the courtyard of the Celestial Palace of the Jade Pond as children. A curious Syurin asks Ichiyo about his servant-god, Tenko. Ichiyo recalls their first meeting - when he got separated from the Minister of Kashi, Sonto, deep in a forest. There he found a man bound with a strong seal in the depths of a hidden shrine...

Just when Ichiyo finally reunites with Hakugo, a great earthquake strikes the Immortal Realm. In the ensuing chaos, every single Peach of Immortality - a necessity bestowed to Kashi heading to the outside world by The Queen Mother of the West - is found to be stolen. Ichiyo's teacher, Ran Saiwa, is taken in for interrogation while Ichiyo heads for Japan with Ryusei to track down the thief...

Meanwhile, a stray god attacks the King Father of the East's quarters. Ryusei rushes to the scene and defeats it, or so he thought...

When something odd emerges from the corpse of the stray god which turns fallen soldiers into undead, Kaka struggles with their numbers. Meanwhile, Sonto continues his fierce battle with the man in the rabbit mask...
