I've been expecting you, Naraku.
So, Moryomaru- you long for my Shikon Jewel shards? (holds out the near-complete Jewel) I applaud your ambition.
Huh! At this point, the only advantage you have over me is the number of Shards you possess!
It's futile. I cannot be killed, no matter how many times you try. My heart is inside you, and I don't imagine you want any harm to come to it.
Perhaps, but that works both ways, doesn't it? For you cannot kill me either, so long as your heart remains inside my body.
(inside Moryomaru) That's right. Like it or not, our fates are connected, Naraku. If I die, you die.
Really? Before you go on, I should tell you that your betrayal comes as no surprise- in fact, I knew this would happen when I first released you from my body.
(shocked and angry) What?!
You knew this would happen?
Why would I allow my heart- my very life to exist outside my body in such a weak infantile form? Perhaps it is because I know you so well, and I could foresee you betraying me and attempting to overthrow me one day. And, just as I expected, to protect yourself you created a suit of armor in Moryomaru. (chuckles) Suit of armor? No... he's a genuine fortress! I must say, you've done an impressive job of fattening him up for me; I look forward to devouring him.
Hmph! You cannot talk your way out of this!
You really think you can defeat me? (reassembles his body) Let us find out, shall we? And, may the one who's left standing be vindicated!
