The heir to Hakone clan assumes a new identity, Hachiman Hatokuro, mystic swordsman reputed to be the incarnation of the God of War, Hachiman. Searching for his long lost brother, he finds himself pitted against the hooded menace Kubo Murasaki and his Murasaki-gumi thugs, terrorizing and murdering the merchants of Edo in their campaign of extortion. Caught in their trap, with the help of a ninja spy, and yakuza queen Oryu Nanba, he will survive to fight again. And Murasaki’s brutal and deadly swordsmen will soon dread Hatokuro’s spinning, dazzling two-sword style. But can even Hatokuro unmask Murasaki Kubo, and end his reign of terror?
