Dororo applies for a well-paid babysitting job for a village headman, but Hyakkimaru detects the presence of a demon. Hyakkimaru falls into its trap, while the villagers pay their respects to the new babysitter, Dororo. During the night, the villagers tie Dororo to a statue known as the Jizo which first demands that Dororo sings a lullaby or be strangled, and then demands a piggy-back ride to the next village. Meanwhile, Hyakkimaru escapes from the demon's trap, and catches up with the statue and the spider-like demon inhabiting it. Hyakkimaru kills the demon and his backbone grows back into place.
