Feudal Japan - a time of
danger, intrigue and
deception. Jubei is a
masterless ninja who travels the Jubei Kibagami
land alone, hiring his services to those
with gold... or a worthy cause.

His fearsome abilities have served
him well, but a hideous plot to overthrow
the government threatens to end his
wandering ways - and possibly his life.
When a small village succumbs to a terrible plague, a team
of ninjas are sent to investigate, and realize that all is not as
it seems. Ambushed, they are wiped out by a fearsome
man-monster with incredible powers, leaving only one alive
- Kagero, a beautiful female ninja, whose touch can bring
instant death. Jubei saves her from a fate worse than death,
and unwittingly becomes drawn into the web of treachery.
He is soon faced with his greatest challenge - an enemy for
whom death holds no fear, with the power to destroy Jubei's
world.

It's an all-out bloodbath when ninja
warriors come face-to-face in this
action packed tribal war.
