Synopsis
Miyuki, one of the members of the Three Ogre Mob, challenges Yusuke's team. Kuwabara doesn't want to fight her because she's a girl, but Yusuke doesn't care about such things -although he wants to be sure. The two clash, but Yusuke feels Miyuki's chest, and also finds out that Miyuki is also definitely hooked up underneath. Miyuki tries to fight Yusuke, but he easily overwhelms her. He tells her not to go doing things halfway -make both her heart and body a woman's. She admits defeat before passing out. Yusuke's team move on, but when Kuwabara threatens to tell Keiko about what Yusuke did, they start fighting. Botan has to break them up, and gets Kuwabara to calm down by reminding him they're here to save Yukina.
They are then attacked by the next member of the Three Ogre Mob: Inmaki. Inmaki is able to move incredible quickly, and can also turn invisible. However, he is outsmarted when Yusuke and the others lead him down a narrow corridor. When Kuwabara senses Inmaki approaching, Yusuke uses his spirit shotgun technique, which blasts Inmaki into a wall. With him out of the way, the team soon come across the final member of the Three Ogre Mob: Gokumonki. He batters down a wall and grabs Botan, and uses her as a shield whilst he attacks Yusuke and Kuwabara.
However, Yusuke tells Botan to raise her arms, and when she does, she slips out of her jacket. With her safely out of the way, Yusuke and Kuwabara perform twin kicks, which hit Gokumonki and defeat him. With the Three Ogre Mob defeated, Tarukane has just lost more money to Sakyo. Tarukane isn't done yet, and says the next wager will be the final one: who will win in a fight between the Toguro brothers and the intruders? Sakyo shocks everyone by saying he'll bet 72 trillion, 350 billion on the intruders. He knows Tarukane just about has that kind of money. Tarukane quickly thinks things over, and despite his doubts, he lets greed cloud his mind. He accepts Sakyo's bet, but has Yukina taken to where the fight will take place.
As Yukina is moved, she is contacted by Kuwabara. She warns him to stay away, as there are dangerous demons with her, but he is determined to save her whether she wants their help or not. Now able to sense Yukina, Kuwabara leads the others through the lab and to an underground arena, where the Toguro brothers are waiting. Kuwabara can barely sense any demon energy from them, and believes this'll be an easy win...
-In the manga, Miyuki does an attack which breaks part of the ground, causing Yusuke and Kuwabara to fall back. This attack isn't seen in the episode.
-Yusuke's fight against Miyuki is also much shorter in the manga. In the manga, Yusuke defeats Miyuki with a single punch. The episode expanded the fight, such as having Miyuki create a whip with a strand of her hair.
-As usual, any scenes in the episode involving Koenma and Jorge weren't in the manga.
-The scenes with Hiei weren't in the manga either.
-The fight with Gokumonki is really short in the manga, since Botan isn't present in the story, the manga obviously doesn't have her get captured by him. Instead, Yusuke and Kuwabara defeat him with drop kicks before he even gets to introduce himself.
-The speech made by Kuwabara to Yukina -where he summons his spirit sword and tells her he's overcome a great deal of danger -wasn't in the manga.
