Snow White with the Red Hair S2 E7

## Plot

Kiki gives Shirayuki the walnut stone necklace so they can use it to signal the others. Tanbarun citizens are complaining about Raj coming to their port town, calling him an idiot prince. They learn that they're setting out to pursue the Claw of the Sea. Raj gives a speech that convinces the men to help him. Even Zen believes in him. Meanwhile, he, Mitsuhide, Obi, Mihaya, Itoya, Mukaze, and the rest of the Lions are heading towards the Claw's base. Umihebi is informed that several ships are following them. They can't tell who they are yet. Even if Shirayuki turns out to be worthless to the Lions, they still have Kazuki. Kiki tells Shirayuki to shout for her if things start looking dangerous. Umihebi sees that a whole fleet of merchant ships are after them, and they're all flying royal navy flags. Raj and Sakaki are on a royal vessel leading them all, and they know they're following the right ship when they see the bird. The men admit that they were wrong about the prince. Raj admits to Sakaki that he's always felt like a pitiful prince, but right now, he's so angry that he doesn't feel pitiful anymore. A soldier informs them that they have a confirmed sighting of Shirayuki aboard the Claw's ship. Raj tells the pirates that they won't let them get away with this. They can't take on that many ships alone, so Umihebi orders a retreat. They're almost to the Blue Vortex. The other ships won't be able to follow them through that no matter how hard they try. It's a cluster of maelstroms of epic proportions that only the Claw knows how to get through safely. They reach their base, which is a cave. Sakaki remembers that the Blue Vortex shifts every ten seconds. If they go with the current instead of against it, then they can make it through. However, by the time they catch up to Umihebi, their ship is worse for wear. It's still good as a battering ram though, since they crash the ship into the Claw's to cut off their escape. Sakaki saves Raj from some flying debris. Kiki frees herself and tells Kazuki and Shirayuki to get inside. Unfortunately, Umihebi ties up Shirayuki with her weapon. Mitsuhide throws Kiki's sword to her just in time. Zen tells Umihebi to let Shirayuki go, or else. He's not one to be trifled with. Obi shoots an arrow that frees her, and she bites Umihebi. Obi fights her while Zen heads inside with Kazuki and Shirayuki. Mukaze shows up with Itoya and the rest of the Lions. They've already visited her castle on the other side of the cave. Kazuki goes back outside to help them. Zen didn't think they'd be alone together so soon after reuniting. They hug each other, and Shirayuki finally breaks down and cries after everything she's been through in such a short time. There are guards stationed up above, along with Mihaya. Zen heads back outside to help everyone else. He formally introduces himself to the pirates and reveals that he's the second prince of Clarines. Some time later, he, Kiki, and Mitsuhide meet up with Shirayuki outside the castle on the cliffside. Obi is still down there, watching the pirates, who are in custody. Tanbarun can take care of it from here. Kazuki pushes Mukaze forward. He tells them that they're more than welcome to rest at their village before heading all the way back to the castle. He'd like to make it up to them. He has dark red hair and green eyes. Shirayuki recognizes him… as her father.
