Your journey begins in the Settsu region, where you'll meet the compassionate priest, Shin’nyo.

It's up to you to restore order and give the people the peace they deserve.

There are eight distinct targets within the Kabukimono faction, each with their own gang and unique characteristics.

After dealing with the other members, you'll face the final trio: Corrupt Blade, Laughing Man, and Peacock. Head to the Nishinomiya Shrine west of Amagasaki Castle.
