Summary:  far with me. Shinbei: I am not a coward. Do you think that I won't fight because I am not prepared? I will use this mailbank stick which the old man gave to me. While I am fighting, the others will keep a lookout for us. ‘Come the twelve corners of the Triangle Meeting Place and the seven alleys, and if anyone asks you, I don't know who did it. Shinbei has no master at all. ‘I am good at pretending and playing the fool, but Iikyu, the coward, and Sukeroku, the valiant, are both brave and ready to fight. SUKEWOKU (bowing): I hope that no danger befalls you. SHINBEI: I've been wrong in holding knives and swords before. So make yourself look like a true swordsman. Draw your bugle. But let us say no more. SUKEWOKU (completing the hana): Then it's unusual for us to quarrel with each other. Farewell. Remember me to your father. A 60-minute play will be performed: “Sukeroku to Iikyu”. In this play, Sukeroku played by a courageous swordsman teaches a cowardly swordsman Iikyu how to fight while Shinbei cheerfully joins in the game.
