Yahiko's heart is moved by Kenshin and he decides to quit pickpocketing. Yahiko refuses to pay Kanto Shueigumi and resists their demands, but he is beaten up. Kenshin comes to his rescue and settles the matter. Regretful that he could not solve the problem by himself, Yahiko wishes to become stronger. Seeing this, Kenshin takes Yahiko to the Kamiya Dojo.
I didn't think someone with those eyes
would be left in these days of Meiji.
لم أظنّ أبدًا أنّ أحدًا بتلكما العينين 
.سيبقى حتّى في أيّام ميجي هذه
Jamás pensé que en la era Meiji
aún habría un hombre con esa mirada.
मुझे नहीं लगा था कि मेइजि के इन दिनों में
ऐसी आँखों वाला कोई बचा होगा।
