Ao ask why he is here to which he states that his body’s youkai powers have been becoming unstable and needs a refill. Enjin grabs Ao by the neck and pins her against a wall stating that if the youkai powers were to die out so would Gin’s soul. Enjin is interrupted by a frying pan thrown at his head by Touka. Enjin attacks Touka but Touka is able to evade his attacks. Enjins states that she cannot beat him since he knows about her shackle and youkai powers.
