Kurama then is tossed out of the ring. Baken is declared the winner. Yusuke then gets onto the ring to confront him. Baken uses a technique built from his sweat to cover the entire arena in mist, so Yusuke won't be able to see now.

Yuyu Hakusho Episode 36

The masked fighter stops Yusuke from using his Spirit Gun, and tells him she'll do it herself. She starts chanting in a strange tounge, and then seems to paralyze the warriors in their tracks. She stabs them each in the heart with her finger, and then stops, and they fall to the ground, presumably dead. Kuwabara and Yusuke are both shocked at her methods, but she assures them that it was all that she could have done. With that done, the Urameshi Team confronts Ichigaki himself. The coward still tries to weasel himself out, saying that their master is still sick, and only he has the cure. Hiei and Kurama prove him wrong, however, when the master of the dojo appears from the hallway, standing, although a bit weak. Hiei says that after beating up Ichigaki's fifth fighter, they found the whereabouts of the master, and Kurama easily created a cure for the minor illness. With no other way out, Ichigaki injects himself with a strange serum, morphing him into a huge, hulking beast with stretchable arms. He attacks them all, and when Hiei steps up to finish him off, Yusuke insists that he be the one to take him. He gives Ichigaki a ruthless beating, yelling at him the whole time, and eventually gives him a supercharged uppercut straight into the stands. With the Ichigaki Team dissolved, the Urameshi Team has won their second round. The win is short-lived, however, since Yusuke and Kuwabara are still depressed about the death of the innocent fighters. The masked fighter tells them to look again, and the three fighters get up. She tells them that she used the "Spirit Wave" technique, a technique that uses an opponent's spirit energy against him. If their true heart is evil, then their spirit energy will destroy them, but if it is truly good, then they won't die. Yusuke and Kuwabara are thrilled to know that no innocent lives were lost. The fighers are re-united with their master, and all seems well. Suddenly, the voice of the committee blares out through the arena, stating that the next match will begin immediately. . .and Team Urameshi will be fighting it! Everyone is in shock that they're being forced to fight two matches back to back, especially when everyone is still in bad condition. The next team appears, five fighters in dark black cloaks. . .

Yuyu Hakusho Episode 35

The Urameshi Team continue their fight against the Dr. Ichigaki Team. Kuwabara wants to stop fighting, however, and save the mindless souls inside. The masked fighter is forced to take a hit for Yusuke, when he's busy yelling at Kuwabara. She's thrown back and slammed into the side of the ring, presumably unconscious. It's up to Yusuke and Kuwabara to fend for themselves in the ring. . .and they're failing miserably. Kuwabara still refuses to fight, however, intent on rescuing from their dark fates. Ichigaki eggs them on, still in glee over the Urameshi Team's .05% percentage of victory. Kuwabara leaves himself open for a critical blow, still trying to figure out what's wrong with them, but the masked figher once again does crushing blow to his attacker, sending him sprawling. Her mask in tatters, she's revealed to be a short, young woman with pink hair, and a beautiful face. Everyone is surprised that the fighter isn't Genkai, like they had assumed. She berates them for standing still, and Kuwabara insists that they're still good of heart, somewhere, deep down there, and tells the woman the visions that he sees. She elaborates, informing them that Ichigaki was actually what CAUSED their master the disease in the first place. . .which means they were stuck inside this murderous job long before they were aware of it. Enraged at the sick doctor, Yusuke and Kuwabara go to attack him, but they're repelled by the three fighters. Kuwabara shouts at them, trying to snap them back, but it can't break the hold Ichigaki has on their body systems. Suddenly, from the sky, the two other fighters from the Ichigaki team come crashing down, along with Hiei and Kurama, standing on top of the totaled robot. They tell everyone what happened, and try to enter the fight. The announcer stops them, telling them both teams already agreed to a 3-on-3. Hiei and Kurama are forced to watch from the sidelines. Kuwabara still tries to snap them out of it, and they pummel him to the point of death, sending him flying out of the ring. The pink-haired woman tells Yusuke something interesting, however -- it seems that the fighters intentionally missed hitting all his vital points by mere inches. . .meaning they are actually at war with their bodies, little by little. With Kuwabara out of commision, Yusuke is forced to end it. He realizes they haven't been saying just "KILL" all along. . .but "KILL US". Forced with no other option, he rises up into the sky and prepares an immense Spirit Gun, capable of decimating the entire Ichigaki Team. . .

Yuyu Hakusho Episode 34

The battle begins between the Dr. Ichigaki Team and the Urameshi Team. Since the other two members of the Urameshi Team, Kurama and Hiei, haven't shown up yet, the doctor suggests a 3-on-3 battle. . .it seems his other two haven't shown up either. Yusuke accepts, and he, Kuwabara, and the masked fighter step up to the challenge. Meanwhile, Kuwabara and Hiei are on their way to the ring, when they are sidetracked by two men, one who looks like a panther/jaguar and the other, resembling a python. The python rushes them, and is quickly disposed of by the two. The other, however, is more resourceful, and calls on a huge robot, built by the doctor himself, that is mostly robot, and a little demon, that knows no pain, to take care of the two fighters. Back in the ring, Yusuke and Kuwabara are having a tough time against the three fighters. They each like to rush one person all at once, using devastating moves to deter them from attacking. The masked fighter gets a few good hits in, but it's nothing to subdue the three. Dr. Ichigaki begins to calculate the Urameshi Team's percentage of victory, at it eventually comes to a 99.95% chance of them losing. . .which means a .05% of a win. He cackles at the thought, and watches the battle with relish. In the forest, Hiei and Kurama are busy avoiding the robot's ever-stretching spiked arms. Hiei tries whacking it with his sword, but it's to no avail, and he's quickly cornered against a tree by the robot's claw. Kurama quickly comes and intervenes, rescuing Hiei and causing the two claws to smash into each other. He finishes off the job with his Rose Whip, easily slashing the vital circuits to the robot. He informs the tiger-man that not being able to feel pain is truly a weakness, since it neglects to tell a creature about not exposing its vital points for an attack. Meanwhile, Kuwabara gets some strange visions from the opposing team. It seems, before they were employed by Ichigaki, the three fighters were students under a strong fighting master. He undercame a strange illness one day, however, which stunted their training. That's when the Dr. Ichigaki appeared, with a proposal. He would cure their master's illness, if those three fighters would become his test subjects for a bit. It seemed he regretted to tell them that they would be his test subjects for the rest of their life, and be forced to kill. With mindless drones as their opponents, it's looking bleak for the Urameshi Team.

Yuyu Hakusho Episode 33

Having successfully won their first round, Team Urameshi has a day to rest while they wait to see who will be their next opponents.

The announcer states that it's illegal to make up rules during the fight, but after the crowd cheers, the commitee approves the deathmatch. The men begin fighting, one taking turns punching the other. In the stands, Keiko can't stand to watch the fight any longer, and after Shiziru makes a sarcastic comment about Yusuke, she runs off. Shiziru follows her, and soon they're lost in a catacomb of hallways inside the arena. Meanwhile, Sakyo asks Toguro if his other teammates have arrived yet. Toguro doesn't know. Then, we see a man in a black cloak and a metal mouth-mask dodge some guards by apparently. . .blowing them up. His name is Karasu, and he's a member of the Toguro Team. Back in the hallways, Shiziru loses sight of Keiko. Some monsters see Shiziru and start to pursue her, but Sakyo appears from a corner and leads Shiziru out of danger. He tells her to be careful, and then dissapears. Keiko eventually finds her way out of the hallway, and gets down to the ring to watch Yusuke. Chuu and Yusuke are still going at it, and they're each looking worse by the second. Suddenly, Chuu goes for a headbutt, and Yusuke counters with his own. It's a startling finish, and Chuu falls over. The announcer finishes the count, and Yusuke is declared the winner. Team Urameshi has won their first round. Chuu doesn't seem satisfied, however, and demands that Yusuke finish him off. Yusuke declines -- he wants to fight Chuu again when they're both in better shape. Chuu smiles, and nods. Meanwhile, the incomplete Toguro Team watches Yusuke from high above the ring. Kuwabara is busy telling Keiko that the whole reason that they've come here is to have a real fight with Toguro. She asks what the point is, and Kuwabara tells her that they don't have a choice. Yusuke locks eyes with Toguro, and the tension builds.

Since Yusuke still seems to be asleep, Kuwabara takes the first match. The match begins, and Rinku demonstrates his incredible speed by running in flashes around Kuwabara. Kuwabara's training pays off, however, when he can easily detect Rinku's movements. He deals him a few crushing blows, and it looks like Rinku is down. He grins, though, standing back up and telling Kuwabara he was just playing around to begin. He reveals his true weapon, eight Yo-Yos, four for each hand. He launches them forward to Kuwabara. Kuwabara reveals his newly-improved weapon, double Spirit Swords. They can't stop the Yo-Yos, however, when the strings bend and twist to manuever around his Spirit Swords and slam into him, fueled with spirit energy.
