For Lord Kiyomori... I will strike both of you down!
[Those words alone should be enough of an indication that he's not in his right mind. It's not the first time he's been brainwashed, not that he seems to be aware of that at this point either.
Once he notices that Saitou is moving into position too, he steps back, shifting his stance so that he can hold his spear in both hands. This time, he's waiting for one of the other two to strike first, being in a better position to defend rather than strike back at the moment. Otherwise he'll leave himself too open to one or both of them.]
