Episode 144

InuYasha and Kagome have realized that the grave of InuYasha's father is the place they - and Hakudoshi - are seeking.

InuYasha seeks out Totosai, looking for Myoga. Meanwhile, Kagome tells Sango, Miroku and Shippo about the Black Pearl, and their previous trip to the grave of InuYasha's father.

Learning the Black Pearl will no longer be able to transport him to his father's grave, InuYasha asks Myoga and Totosai how to get to the demon graveyard at the border to the netherworld. Myoga tells InuYasha that he must first seek out Hosenki - the creator of the Black Pearl.

As Kagura contemplates killing Hakudoshi, she discovers that he can read her thoughts. Meanwhile, Kanna and Kohaku carry the other infant along a path.

Jaken and Rin follow Sesshomaru, who detects the scent of Kohaku and Naraku.

InuYasha scales a cliff with his companions following behind, only to be confronted by Hakudoshi's blade as he crests the cliff. Hakudoshi taunts InuYasha before mounting Entei and departing once again.

InuYasha and his companions arrive at a lake where Myoga calls for Hosenki. A huge shell appears before them, and Hosenki's son greets them. He tells them that Hosenki died recently of old age, and used all the jewels that could have taken them to the border.

Hakudoshi sends Kagura on an errand.

Kanna and Kohaku, with the infant, arrive in a swamp where Naruku waits. They all disappear into the trees. Shortly after, Sesshomaru and his companions arrive at the swamp.

As InuYasha asks Myoga if there is any other way to enter the netherworld, Kagura appears. She informs InuYasha that Hakudoshi is headed toward the Mountain in the Realm of Fire where a gateway leads to the border between worlds. She also says that Hakudoshi sent her to tell him where he is headed.
