Alright, finally looked over sheets again and as you had suggested earlier about Inemaru and Jinnosuke meeting 100 years ago works for me. Possibly Inemaru came in days later after the village attack and slaughtered the whole organization of bandits to fulfill wishes of the families from neighboring villages, or years later to serve as a karma to the bandit organization for all the misdeeds they've done? I will leave that up to you as I see in the history that you had Jinnosuke wandering as a spirit for some time after his death.
