While she contemplates her next move, she has a vision of Sesshomaru, so she seeks him out, believing he has the power to sever her link to Naraku.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thetripfiles.com\/contains-spoilers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/inuyasha-s3e12-contract-killer-e1645933466771.png\" alt=\"Kagura attempts to hire Sesshomaru to kill Naraku\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>She offers him the two jewel shards she carries in exchange for killing Naraku.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Episode Score Card:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Iron Reaver Soul Stealers: 0<\/li><li>Wind Scars: 0<\/li><li>Backlash Waves: 0<\/li><li>Wind Tunnels: 0<\/li><li>Butts Grabbed: 0<\/li><li>Swarms of Naraku&#8217;s Bees: 1 mixed with a small horde of Naraku&#8217;s demons.<\/li><li>Jewel Shards Recovered: Kagura recovers Koga&#8217;s 2 shards.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Did you miss it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Even when human, Inuyasha has no fear of the wolf demons.
