Sanzo and Gojyo are forced to team up in order to help Goku and Hakkai, whose souls have been sucked out by Kinkaku using a magical gourd. They were told by the innkeeper that there's a monster behind the mountains and goes there to find it, believing it to be Kinkaku and his so-called brother, Ginkaku.
Meanwhile, Hakkai and Goku wakes up to find themselves in a barren land with nothing but bones. 'Hell' as Hakkai calls it. However, both of them refuse to think that they're dead. At least not before Sanzo. They were soon greeted by 'guards of hell'. It was easy to kill these creatures but there were endless number of them that Hakkai had to revise a new strategy: run. They finally defeated them but then were later confronted with a bigger version of the previously fought creature.
Meanwhile, Sanzo and Gojyo were ambushed by a gang of youkais. The youkais were easily beaten but as Sanzo was about to kill the last youkai, he lurged forward, catching Sanzo and leaped off the clift, draggins the monk with him.
Will Goku and Hakkai be able to defeat that huge enemy of theirs? What will become of Sanzo?
Sanzo y Gojyo se ven obligados a formar equipo para ayudar a Goku y Hakkai, cuyas almas han sido succionadas por Kinkaku usando una calabaza mágica. El posadero les dijo que hay un monstruo detrás de las montañas y va allí para encontrarlo, creyendo que es Kinkaku y su supuesto hermano, Ginkaku. Mientras tanto, Hakkai y Goku se despiertan para encontrarse en una tierra estéril con nada más que huesos. 'Infierno' como lo llama Hakkai. Sin embargo, ambos se niegan a pensar que están muertos. Al menos no antes de Sanzo. Pronto fueron recibidos por "guardias del infierno". Era fácil matar a estas criaturas pero había un sinfín de ellas a las que Hakkai tuvo que revisar una nueva estrategia: correr. Finalmente los derrotaron, pero luego se enfrentaron a una versión más grande de la criatura previamente combatida. Mientras tanto, Sanzo y Gojyo fueron emboscados por una banda de youkais.
