Take Oda Nobunaga's head Make it a legend for generations

Honnoji Temple was set on fire and taken

Nobunaga died with Honnoji Temple in ash

So people said But no body was found

We were too late then Yeah, guess so

The Lord lives

No, say what you want, look at this

That man won't die

That's Akakage for you

Oda Nobunaga still lives

We of Kinme have him

So he is your hostage

We will be waiting at Mount Tenno

Mount Tenno

Then until then

Circa the later-named Honnoji Incident

Hashiba Hideyoshi's forces camped near Bitchu Takamatsu Castle

were in the thick of the Mori campaign

To prepare, put 10,000 on the front line Stop, stop, stop

As you command I cannot stop thinking about that man

Who do you mean? Akakage

What about him worries you?

While we are apart from the Lord

the Lord's top favorite

might shift from this Monkey to him

No need to worry; to prevent that we have already taken measures

That's right

Good then tell me

That man does not call himself a samurai

I am not shy, and I am no samurai

That man is a shinobi born in Hida Village

He was heir to the Kage Clan ruling there

Become a shinobi serving the Oda clan I will never serve under such a man

When displeased, he shows his anger and makes others tiptoe around him

A toxic old man You call me old, you fool

Even if I explain you would not understand

I will treat you as my younger brother I will take the realm

I will be light in this war-scorched land You will be the shadow

Support it

I am from Iga, a rogue shinobi

As you know, I'm a thief But I snuck in to earn some credit

Shinobi examination so I snuck in

Hey!

I came to back you up

Lord Shirokage

So from here, not war, but the shadow Yes

You are Aokage You will take the name Akakage

Akakage, at your service

Hmm, I see

Well, even I know that much

I saw it with my own eyes Tell me what comes after

Don't break it. What is this? Could anyone really make this?

Oribe Tamon could, no doubt

I wanted to meet you Akakage

My name Koga Genyosai

Did you betray the Lord?

Kazumasu, right?

Genyosai and I

are brothers born of one womb

What is a brother?

A brother is a comrade

A comrade is a brother

You and I

are brothers Yes, brothers

So you cared that much for me

Akakage

That is why I believe

They are comrades, brothers You are soft

Our spies and I learned this

So that is Akakage's path Impressive

You and our men

Excellent work You are no ordinary man

What is it?

No ordinary man Those words of yours

make me very happy

I replay them in my head

Hey Mitsunari, the not ordinary one

Ah, more So smart and hardworking, Mitsunari

Ah, more, more Mitsunari is my right-hand man

And then? Left arm!

One more I do not know

Fine. If Ishida Mitsunari is with me, my future is safe

Truly, I am most grateful Done

But what we must bear in mind

Akakage carries a deep wound in his heart

I had an older sister

But she was killed

by my father's men

They said she betrayed Kage Clan

Do not lie to your own memory

To spare you, your father

took it all upon himself

If I had been stronger

Even Sister wouldn't have been killed

I wanted to get stronger

I kept training recklessly

Since that moment

I cannot control it well

This shoulder scar is your price

Even if battle wounds heal

A broken heart never heals Akakage

What an outrageous man

There is one more thing to remember

What is it? Akakage...

Not just his past his present and future

He is troubled by fate by destiny itself

From the day I was born, my fate was set

Even now I leave my future to someone Is this right for me?

The past cannot be changed

Therefore, change the future

Change the future, and the past changes

What are you doing here with no weapons?

To capture Genyosai alive He is not up ahead

The enemy is at Honnoji Temple Now, to the Demon King Subjugation

Behold the Demon King, head hung in shame

Pardon the late hour

This Akechi Mitsuhide with deepest regret, will take your life

Dimly coming into view The Demon King's final moment

The Demon King is defeated

Akakage has arrived The party is over, time to wrap it up

Hida Shinobi Shadow Slash

You lot will soon fade like mist

I see So that is how he saved the Lord

Yes He saved him

If only I were a little younger

I would have saved the Lord in his stead

What are you saying? Lord Hideyoshi, you are quite young

More

Akakage here Won't you give me one?

After that a tragedy awaited

Hey Won't you give me one?

A tragedy awaited Won't you give me one?

Lord Kinme show yourself to us

What is that giant thing

We can win this

Koga Ninpo: Phantom

Kneel before Lord Kinme

It shrank?

Aokage?

Aokage You alright?

I will not let you harm my brothers

Shirokage No

I will be your opponent

Do you still not get it, even seeing this

Shirokage? Shirokage is dead

That must not be

Shirokage cannot be dead

Get up, you

It gets on my nerves everything, him and me alike

Well, after that what of Akakage and Aokage's bond?

From what I and our spies have learned

We believed their bond was beyond repair

From now on we're comrades Call it a new Aokage

If I am here he will not come back

Aokage will come back You have Akakage

I never want to see his face again

Value your comrades About the new Shirokage

You came out of nowhere

The new Shirokage Oribe Tamon

Aokage and I passed the examination and became shadows of the Oda clan

Nice work, alright On an empty stomach...

What was it again? When hungry, your belly growls

Well, obviously

So he no longer needs me or Shirokage

Can we not change fate?

Fate cannot be changed

But from now on, we change it our fate

When that day comes

I might finally be able to cry

When that time comes, who do you want by your side? Why are you here, Akakage

See that?

You say Akakage has been captured?

Yes Aokage seems captured as well

With respect, my lord

We should dispatch reinforcements

I will not send help

I trust Akakage I...

The reason I did not want to be with you

is that you never decide anything for yourself

Show some feeling Say you are sad Shirokage died

Cry when you are sad, then people stand up and move forward again

Akakage, I acknowledge you as a comrade

Defy fate Change your own fate

Wake up, Akakage I will follow Genyosai

To begin with, Akakage

Purge the ones who defy Lord Kinme's teachings and rebels

Tell me one last thing

Why did you take their side

I chose to defy fate

I see At last you chose your own future

I was the one who was wrong

You called me brother, and I left you I just...

I only wanted to cry with you

I could not even say that plainly Sorry

Once, someone asked me

When fate changes, who do you want by your side

Who I want beside me is

You, Aokage

And? What do you mean, and?

The next part, the next part I might go bald from suspense

We still have no word from our spy So you don't know what happened after!

Report! What is it!

Report A letter has just arrived

What happened?

The time has come The enemy is at Honnoji Temple

This is not Mitsuhide's rebellion

He may already be gone Lord Akechi

It cannot be helped

I am Yumedo Tenzen

Yumedo Tenzen Take Oda Nobunaga's head

Make it a legend for generations

Mitsunari Rally the troops at once

Call off the Mori campaign Make peace at once

We turn back

Yes, as you command Mitsunari

We owe our spy thanks

I will pass it on

If anything happens to the Lord the new ruler of the realm will be

None other than Lord Hideyoshi

Then I shall...? Become the Demon King in his stead

Nisuke, remember? That night

I have not forgotten for a moment

I wanted to forget

With the princess and those left here I wanted a life with no swords

If it had been so how happy we could have been

You two You have power, don't you

Any power will do

But Genyosai We must fight Genyosai

Grieve properly Let yourself cry

Cry it out, then stand up again

He never abandoned his strength to the end

I will not abandon my strength

Not until I defeat Genyosai

Trivial chats in full bloom Days fading into the city's scent

A tomorrow I can't see A sense of no fear

But I can't pretend Clumsy is fine

Moving forward is what matters

You taught me I hold tight the pain we shared

There is no answer anyway

Led by fate You have come

Melting marmalade Even if it stays bittersweet

If we can still laugh together Oh Oh

The light is here, shadow

You wish to come here now but I can't let you come that easily

That guy is still alive? How tough is that body

You lot Can you make it to Nobunaga

Ahead lies the path of carnage Prepare yourselves

We always fight on enemy ground, don't we

Isn't that what a shinobi is Exactly

Now is the time for the final battle Us or you

Until one side is wiped out Let us fight to the death

Wherever you are I will see your heart with my own eyes

I will never forgive you
