<< Chapter 16: Spirits Call >>

< Description: Shaman King Chapter 16: Spirits Call >

Yoh: What is this? I just free his soul, but he becomes even more aggressive. And he leaves no room between his move. My sword is broken now. Now Pyron is possessed by angst that he becomes a monster. Is there anything I can do, Tao Jun?

Jun: No.
Yoh: What!
Jun: A zombie that is not under control will not listen to anything. The only way to stop him is to destroy his body. There is no way else, and nobody can stop him.
< a slap sound >

Anna: So you just quit because your pet bites you? There must be other ways to control your spirits
Jun: My… spirits?
Anna: Yes. Be responsible and help me. As long as Yoh and I are around, we won't be defeated so easily.

Jun: Help? Who are you?
Anna: This is not a time for acquaintance. Who do you think can beat Pyron?
Jun: That's why it is impossible. There is Pyron's master but…
Anna: Master?
Manta: That's it! The man who taught Pyron since he was young, the Jorinji kung fu master, Shamon!

Manta: He is the inventor of The Bullet Edge Kung fu, which is fundamental of Daodun-Doh. For Pyron, Shamon is his great mentor!
Jun: So what? Shamon was dead long ago, and his burial site…
Manta: I know, I know. But he can come back.
Jun: Come back?
Manta: Tell me the date and time he died, and his other information.*(1) The more we know, the easier Anna can contact him.
Jun: So you are..?
Anna: I can contact any spirit from everywhere, of course including the afterlife.

Anna: I am Anna, the spiritualist.
Jun: Spiritualist?
Manta: It's one kind of Shaman.
Jun: Shaman?
Anna: The first rhythm is to your dad, the second rhythm is for your mom, the third rhythm is for your brother, sister, homeland, and yourself.

Anna: If you hear this rhythm, please wake up. If you here this rhythm, please follow.
Jun: What is this? A warm breeze starts to gather.
Manta: It starts. Spiritualist uses the bead to contact with spirits. She can even talk to spirits in the afterlife.
Jun: Arh, the spirit balls are gathering more and more.

< Spirit balls transform into Shamon's shape >
Jun: Now it takes a form of Shamon!
Anna: Yoh, you understand this right? I will let Shamon combines with you.
Yoh: OK. Amidamaru…

Yoh: …comes out!
Manta: Amidamaru is out.
Anna: Good! I will combine you two now! Be prepared!

Anna: Come here, Come here, Shamon's spirit! Let's combine!
< Shamon spirit gets inside Yoh >
Anna: All right! Now it's your turn.

< description: Connected with Kung fu master Shamon >
Yoh: What~? What are you saying ~?

< everyone is stunned >
Amidamaru: What is that, Lady Anna? This is just a geezer!
Manta: Are you sure you have to right person?
< Manta getting 'Anna special' :) >
Jun: Shamon was 96 when he died. When you call up the spirits, he will appear in the stage that he died. That must be him.
Anna: That's bad. If it is like this, Yoh don't have any chance.

Pyron: Ah!!!
Amidamaru: That's bad. Pyron doesn't realize that he is Shamon.
Manta: Yoh!!
< Pyron's punch misses Yoh >
Jun: Missed! Does Pyron miscalculate the distance?

< Pyron just can't seem to hit Shamon >
Amidamaru: No! The old man's movement… He can read all Pyron's movement and dodge at the last second!

< Yoh stands on Pyron's leg, which is stuck on the wall >
Yoh: Oh! I remember you. You are Pyron. Why is your face so dark?
Manta: What is this? That's unbelievable. Is it because he uses Yoh's body?
Anna: No. He is an old person, even he uses a young body. Moreover, this is their first combination. How can he do that?

Yoh: In martial art, techniques, strength, or youth does not matter. < picture becomes Shamon > The most important thing is to defeat your dark side*(2) Even your body is dead, your spirit is not.
Manta: His face expression changes!
Amidamaru: Defeat the dark side…
Pyron: Hyah….!!
Yoh: You fool.

Yoh: When you fight with those hatred, an old man like myself can defeat you.
< Yoh hits Pyron >
Pyron: !!
Jun: Pyron!!
Manta: When did Yoh move behind his back?

Yoh: When will you wake up, Pyron? What is 'to defeat your dark side'? What is the real kung fu? With a foolish student like you, I will show you the way with my move.

Translation Note:

*(1) I can't decipher this sentence very well. Help!
*(2)Star Wars Thesaurus J I use it because it should help you understand easily. ral. So spirit guidance job is to deliver the corpse to their family so that their family can hold a funeral. Usually, these guidances have magic which allows them to control corpse and keep traveling to destination. They usually work at night, with only one or two assistants. Kinda like cowboys with herd of cattle, if I might say. Again, go check the movie. (Ah, the smartest source of all)
