Kneel before Lord Kinme

We can win

Sister, please wait

Get back Do not worry

I am of the Kage Clan of Hida

Sister, don't Sister!

Sister!

Run

You finally woke up

Ow ow ow

It was a brutal fight, right?

I heard

Who are you?

What did you do to me?

Nursed you, of course

My sister and I cared for you

My name is Nisuke

I mean no harm

Rusted Blade in my hand

Sweat that won't stop Dripping like heavy rain

I sigh "Is this my fate?"

Story goes on again and again

The Mercy I cast away that night

Words we traded pierce my heart

Night wind dries traces of tears

Weighing sacrifice and duty cursing past and present

Deep inside I think in silence

My heartbeat quickens I cannot let it go

The hands move nonstop Tik tak

Cloaked in shadow I step forward my turn

Moonlit scars flashback

My oath's Flame flickers in my heart

Imma Run It Back Imma Run It Back (Yeah)

Gotta Run It Back now Run It Back (Yeah)

Imma Run It Back Imma Run It Back (Yeah)

Gotta Run It Back now Run It Back

Oda Nobunaga neared unification of Japan

Kyoto Honnoji Temple led by Koga Genyosai

was targeted by the evil group Kinme

Saved by Masked Ninja from Hida Province loyal to Nobunaga

His name is

Akakage is here

Are you really okay, still recovering? What about you, are you okay?

Walking backward without a sound

Choosing spots with no fallen leaves

This one... Could it be

Are you that curious about my sister?

I just want to thank her

I think my sister will be happy

Someone is there

Count is four

No doubt he is a shinobi

Ah, thank goodness

He is of our clan

Nisuke, is that the one?

Yeah Akakage

My sister is head of our clan

She is further inside

I see

So you are the Shadow Clan

With all those wounds

You still woke up

Thanks to you and your brother I am grateful

Sister, he praised us

But why save me?

You were groaning a lot

Were you having a bad dream?

Well, you were at death's door

The River Styx?

Did you already see the underworld?

It was surely the underworld

Were you haunted by your past?

Yeah

Tell me the truth

What happened?

I told you before

Your sister was killed by your father's agent

She had secretly betrayed the clan that was the reason

You remember, don't you

What kind of betrayal was it?

I did not hear the details

Why didn't you ask?

Since then I haven't spoken with my father Do not spout nonsense

What?

You cling that much to the past

yet you did not even confront your father

Impossible

Probably

Your father lied

You saw your elder sister slain before you To shield your heart

Your father put the blame on himself and shouldered it all

Do not lie to your own memory

Your sister was killed by bandits

You failed to save her

Wracked with guilt

So your father knew that and chose to lie

Silence!

How do you know

You too

And me

Genyosai too like the rest

Fate set at birth

Not hard to imagine

However

Your father not only spared you

yet you would not even accept it

What a spineless fool

Yeah I am spineless

I am a hopelessly shameful man

No Not even a man to my father

Not just my body

even my heart was a frail child

If I had been more

stronger

My father too

To begin with even my sister

would not have been killed

Fire Style Jutsu! Feels different somehow though

I just wanted to be strong

Stronger and stronger

I wanted to get stronger

I kept up reckless training but

Since then

I cannot control it well

the flames

Is this shoulder wound the price

Battle wounds may heal

but a broken heart never does

I understand

Me too

We of Koga's Shadow Clan

For generations men stayed home

and women took up the blade

But I want to fight

with my sister

To do that I must be strong

Stronger still

What happened to you?

A fate set the day you were born

What is it?

I told you

With respect there is no need to say

I will say this only once

My lady

As princess of the Shadow Clan

I was born with a gift

Ninpo: Hair Storm

But because of this power

Genyosai set his sights on us

He wiped out our clan

Only those here survived at all

Never touch our clan again I secured that promise

I chose to serve him

But

Genyosai lets his followers die

And you are fine with that?

Not just followers

He even left his aides to die

My only wish is

For the ones here to keep living

That is all

Akakage?

You are alive Thank goodness

Since then Where were you and what were you doing?

They saved me and I healed up

What do you mean?

I am going to see the Lord

I will explain then

Aokage you are coming too

I am not going

I see

Then say why here and now

I want to bring Yamihime and her clan in as shadows of the Oda clan

To seek that permission from the Lord

Akakage is such an idiot

No The Lord will surely...

You are wrong

Now is not the time for that

What do you mean?

Nice to meet you

Even seeing this you still do not get it?

What happened to Shirokage?

Took you long enough

Shirokage?

He does not have long

Where is Shirokage?

Not telling you

A traitor all chummy with these people

As if I would let you see Shirokage

Kinme statue left Shirokage near death

He was at Hideyoshi's seat Nagahama Castle

Hanbei are you alive?

Dead?

I am alive

Hanbei!

Been a while since I heard that name

Hanbei is Hanbei

Glad you lived even in the Mori campaign

It was worth coming back

No

I am already as good as dead

I know my body better than anyone

Takenaka Hanbei will not die

I will not let him die Say that and he won't die right?

Then you'll say you were alive and try to scare me won't you?

My life reborn as Shirokage

was such a joy

Good That is good

Yet

As Takenaka Hanbei

As Lord Hideyoshi's strategist

that life was a joy as well

Do not say you are dying Hanbei

Now I will

go to the Lord

and speak with him

There is something I must tell

I see then I will go with you

Lord Hideyoshi please

return to the Mori campaign

No but...

Please do not forget your station

If anything befalls the Lord

the ruler of the realm will be

Lord Hideyoshi

there is no other

At that time

I will

become the Demon King instead

Since that day

You two with Mitsuhide you fought well

But

I must apologize

Shirokage is dead

What are you saying?

That was entrusted by him

You lost it did you not?

Therefore Shirokage had one made

That man you know what he meant

I came to help!

What's wrong? Akakage

Got something to say? Then say it

Lord Shirokage I said no 'Lord' needed

Shirokage!

Aokage? You are the real one, right?

Thank goodness Shirokage is here

We are comrades as equals Shirokage

You called At last you called

What is a brother?

A comrade

A brother is a comrade

A comrade is a brother

You and me

That must never happen

Shirokage...

would never die

On your feet!

Before the Lord

Show respect

It gets on my nerves everything

Him too

The enemy too

Me too

This is as far as I go

I would take my leave

Very well at ease

Aokage! Don't go

But

You have a duty

Shirokage left his last words

Last words? He asked that you be told

Akakage

Find a new Shirokage

Akakage do not stand alone

Can I trust you?

I found you Let us defeat Genyosai together

New Shirokage our comrade from now
