Jinroku is a peasant posing as a samurai in the side tale The Other Side of Honor. Wearing a dead lord's armour, he charms a village of women in Kashine until Jin catches on.
Jin corners him by the Carved Mountain Hot Spring, where the path runs out. Jinroku draws as if to duel, then gives up at once and begs. Jin lets him go but warns him never to pose as a samurai again. It is one of only two tales where Jin does not fight.
