Miyamoto Village (宮本村, Miyamoto-mura) is the 8th chapter of the Vagabond manga series.

Summary[]

After being abandoned by Matahachi and company, Takezo walks back to his home village of Miyamoto. There, a man named Heita spots Takezo and runs to tell the news to Osugi Honiden, Matahachi's mother. After hearing the news, Osugi assumes that Matahachi has come home along with Takezo and asks other villagers if the news is true. Much to her dismay, a villager tells her it's not true and to give up to, Osugi responds by slapping the man.

A pair of samurais enter the village and question Osugi about the whereabouts of the Shinmen Family. Osugi discloses that she is not part of the Shinmen family and it is revealed to her that the men are tracking Takezo due to him killing two men. The men also tell Osugi that Takezo is travelling alone. The news that Takezo has come back without Matahachi angers Osugi and she offers to help the samurais capture Takezo. She tells the men about why Takezo has such infamy in the village: he killed his first man at age 13 and is considered a beast.

As the samurais continue to find a Takezo, they find a body of a fellow samurai. Otsu overhears this as Takezo appears out of a bush in front of her, which she reacts to by screaming. Samurais overhear Otsu's screams which cause Takezo to run back into the bushes with samurais following his tracks.
