Episode Title:The End of Moryomaru.Episode Description:Naraku, by reviving and absorbing a demonic tree named Yomeiju, flees from Inuyasha and his friends. Kikyo crosses paths with Koga for the first time, after Moryomaru bursts from a mountain without catching sight of them. Inuyasha's gang witnesses Moryomaru and Naraku battle each other, though they seem evenly matched; the miasma emanating from the two demons kills much of the surrounding forest. Moryomaru consumes Naraku to gain his jewel shards and later captures Koga. However, this was a ruse to allow Naraku to penetrate Moryomaru's armor and destroy him from the inside, using Yomeiju's tendrils to pierce the Infant's barrier and re-absorb him. After Koga frees himself, Miroku aims his Wind Tunnel at Naraku, refusing to close it despite his friends' pleas. Despite Naraku's miasma severely poisoning him, Miroku nearly manages to suck in Naraku's heart. However, when Miroku begins vomiting blood, Inuyasha forces him to close the Wind Tunnel, allowing Naraku to narrowly escape. Unconscious, Miroku is left near death, and Kikyo states that even her great abilities of purification cannot entirely heal him.
