Volume three finishes the story, but then the story isn't really finished. Hyakkimaru is still cursed and his family issues are unresolved. He sends Dororo off and they go their separate ways for the same reasons they always split up in the comic(the path ahead is too dangerous and he wants Dororo to live and grow to adulthood), only to be reunited again. If you really want a satisfying ending to the story, a Dororo movie was released in 2007 (2007 Japanese Drama Movie - Dororo - w/ English Subtitle)and is subtitled in English and released over here. I would reccommend buying or renting that as well.
