Summary of Saiyuuki Reload: Zeroin

The country of Togenkyo was once a peaceful country where people and yokai lived together. Then, however, men emerged who tried to revive Gyumaoh, the great yokai who was killed 500 years ago by the god of war Nataku Taishi and buried in Houtou Castle, using a forbidden combination of chemistry and magic. The generated waves of negative energy spread over Togenkyo and made the Yokai go nuts and attack humanity. To save the earth, Kanzeon orders Bosatsu Son Goku, Genjyo Sazno, Sha Gojyo, and Cho Hakkai to go west.

The four go on a journey to stop the Gyumaoh resuscitation experiment. Along the way, they meet Hazel Grouse, who uses the strange magic that the souls of the Yokai use to resuscitate the dead, and her follower Gato. Both join the group. And Ukoku Sanzo, a man with whom they have a long history, approaches in the shadows … Unforgettable characters, intense personal drama and immersive action in a story about the bond between four men.
