- Botan: I must admit I was about to give you a couple of black eyes. Seems you're always putting Yusuke up against people he shouldn't be able to beat, just to see what will happen.
- Koenma: That's just a result of your inexperience, Botan. You underestimate his true potential. Why, I'd never put him in a fight I didn't know he could win.
- Botan: That's incredible, sir. You knew all along?
- Koenma: You betcha!
- Ogre: Uh, Koenma, sir, what should we do with the black suit and eulogy I wrote for Yusuke's funeral?
- Koenma: Meh... heh... huh... Well, you know, uh, good leader's always got to take a few precautions.
- Botan: BIG LIAR!
- [She grabs Koenma roughly by the lapels]
- Koenma: Hey, come on now. Everything turned out good in the end, didn't it?
- Toguro Ototo: We're so glad that our client is pleased. Now, my brother and I, we have a little favor to ask in return. Please give us an opportunity to fight with those boys again, this time seriously.
- Sakyo: But of course, Toguro. They will be two of the most anticipated guests in the dark martial arts competition.
- Toguro Ototo: I should have known all along. Extorting Tarukane's fortune was only half your plan. You wanted to see the competition.
- Sakyo: You're very keen. So tell me what you thought of their powers.
- Toguro Ototo: That Yusuke Urameshi boy's very intriguing. He lacks the fighting experience but could be a dangerous weapon.
- Yusuke Urameshi: [waiting outside Keiko's dressing room] Are you done yet? That clerk thinks I'm stealing stuff.
- Yusuke Urameshi: Why don't you get to the point, Muscles. I've got better things to do with my time than waste it with you.
- Toguro Ototo: You're afraid of me.
- Yusuke Urameshi: What? Amused is more like it.
- Toguro Ototo: There's no one here to impress, Yusuke. And I can see your entire body shaking. The ability to fear your enemies is one of your strengths. It forces you to reach your potential, but you haven't been scared enough. You need some motivation, and that's why I've come here.
- [yelling]
- Toguro Ototo: To show you my true power! I only used twenty percent of my strength when I fought with you and your friend. So why don't I now show you?
- [Toguro builds his power up and destroys part of the building]
- Toguro Ototo: There! That's sixty percent!
- Yusuke Urameshi: Ah! Ah!
- Toguro Ototo: [he continues destroying more of the building, and contines to do so until the whole thing is gone, under a pile of rubble; Yusuke gets up and sees Toguro standing there] Understand this is the last time I will save your life.
- Toguro Ototo: Two months from now, a martial arts competition will be taking place.
- Yusuke Urameshi: [scared stiff] Oh. Sounds like fun.
- Toguro Ototo: It's a dark tournament organized by greedy human crime lords, and drawing on the most vile demons of the spirit world. Each criminal gathers a team of five fighters, and the teams battle to the death. Humans enter for gambling and entertainment; demons fight for blood and a chance to win the prize. You and Kuwabara are special guests at this competition. If you refuse, I will immediately kill you and everyone you know. If you want to survive these fights, I suggest you get stronger.
- Yusuke Urameshi: [to himself] Stupid Yusuke! You got so scared around him you couldn't even fricken move!
- [now talking]
- Yusuke Urameshi: You idiot! He's gonna kick your stupid ass!
- Genkai: Hm! It's about time you came back. Please tell me you've gotten a little better.
- Youko Kurama: Do you realize the danger you'll be in?
- Kazuma Kuwabara: Yeah.
- Youko Kurama: Hiei can not prepare you for the viciousness of the fights. Your weakness and his honor make him go easy on you. I will not.
- Kazuma Kuwabara: Okay. Come on. Toughen me up.
- Youko Kurama: As you wish.
- Genkai: Does it hurt, slacker? Did you come all the way here just to give me more of your crap?
- Kazuma Kuwabara: Urameshi still hasn't showed up yet. What can that dummy be doing now?
- Youko Kurama: Hopefully, he's finding us a fifth fighter.
- Yusuke Urameshi: These forest hikes really wipe me out.
- Kazuma Kuwabara: Yeah, you look awful. Oh, wait, ha, that's just you.
