After a brutal clash of his Gatotsu against Kenshin's sword arts, Kenshin receives a grave request from Home Minister Toshimichi Okubo: assassinate Makoto Shishio, the man who inherited the mantle of the hitokiri Battosai. A monster thought buried in the shadows of the revolution is sharpening his fangs in Kyoto. Kenshin sets out once more as a wanderer, toward his greatest battle.

Rurouni Kenshin Vol. 7 spoilers
⚠️ Spoilers ahead.
The duel with Saito ends in a draw, but it forces Kenshin to confront how seamlessly his wanderer's present connects to his manslayer's past. After Okubo's assassination, Kenshin resolves to travel alone to Kyoto to stop Shishio, saying his farewells to Kaoru and the others. From here the story plunges into the sprawling Kyoto arc. Saito, an enemy turned uneasy ally, and the monstrous scale of Shishio's power slowly come into focus. A man burned across his entire body and risen from scorched earth begins a war that stakes the fate of Japan itself.
