Aku tricks Jack into wandering into an expansive cemetery, where the demon lord ambushes him by summoning a large army of zombie warriors from their graves. Jack holds his own until a ghost possesses his blade and hands it to Aku himself, who decides to use it give Jack a [[DeathByIrony truly ironic death]]. After a valiant last stand by Jack, Aku's demonic magic finally overwhelms him, but when Aku attempts to execute him with his own sword, it merely bounces off Jack's body. Jack uses Aku's confusion to escape and regain his sword, then explains to Aku that the blade [[LoyalPhlebotinum will never harm an innocent in evil's hands]], right before slicing the evil wizard to shreds until he escapes in the form of a rat.
