In the 15th year of the Meiji era, Shisan Shiro went to visit Sanshiro, but he did not expect to see a splendid fight between the Shimono party and Masagoro Yano of the shrine. As a teacher, he stubbornly became Yano's disciple.
A few years later, he became one of the four kings of the monastery, and under Yano's careful training, he became a humble hero. Soon, Sanshiro, as Yano's representative, challenged Kadoma to his death. Then there was a confrontation with the master of the ju-jitsu school, Murai. At this time, the ju-jitsu giant Higaki asked to fight against Sanshiro. If he defeated Sanshiro, he would marry Murai's daughter Saya as his wife, but Murai refused.
