Hideji Ôtaki: Abbot Jikei
Quotes
-
Ogami Itto : [slowly pulling his sword partially out of its sheath] I have come for your life.
Abbot Jikei : [Unperturbed] You cannot kill that which is naught. I have brought subjective and objective into one. I have forgotten myself and merged with nothingness. I am but a piece of totality of inside and outside. Thus, you cannot kill my body.
Abbot Jikei : [Turns to look at Ogami] When you meet Buddha, you'll kill Buddha. When you meet your parents, you'll kill them. It's all for nothing, however. You only have the way of the assassin. When you are able to kill me, you will have achieved the gateless barrier on the way of the assassin.
[looks away; Ogami slowly re-sheathes his sword]
