The First Secret is the one hundred twentieth chapter of the Rurouni Kenshin manga.
Synopsis[]
To finish the fight Aoshi has decided to use his special Kaiten Kenbu Rokuren, so Kenshin has no option left but to use his ōgi, the Amakakeru Ryū no Hirameki. But Sanosuke has warned him about Yumi sending secret messages to Shishio, and Aoshi sees that as a potential advantage (since Kenshin is doubtful about using it). What will be the result of those two techniques clashing? Is this fight going to end with a death swordsman?
