The Shinbakufu (真幕府, lit. "[the] real shogunate"), also known as the Hundred Demons (百鬼衆, lit. "crowd of one hundred demons") and referred by Naoe as the Onryō (怨霊, "[the] vengeful ghosts"), was an influential organization founded by Shōgun Ashikaga Yoshiaki.

With the Ashikaga shogunate's rule having collapsed after the Ōnin War,[1] Yoshiaki sought to restore his family's centuries-old grip on power. In 1573, he attempted to overthrow his benefactor Oda Nobunaga, who responded by marching to Kyoto and expelling him.[2] When this failed, Yoshiaki turned to subterfuge to achieve his goal and formed the Shinbakufu, whose aims were to first steal Japan's three Imperial Regalia and work again at deposing Nobunaga.[3]

To this end, Yoshiaki also sold information on the Regalia to the Portugese Templars, seeking to use them as insurance in exchange for money and power to fund his activities.[3] Opposing the Shinbakufu were the Kakushiba ikki, an Assassin branch in Iga that Emperor Go-Nara tasked with safeguarding the artifacts.[4] While the Shinbakufu succeeded in destroying the Iga ikki during the Tenshō Iga War,[5] they were ultimately hunted down by the kunoichi Fujibayashi Naoe, an ikki survivor, and the samurai Yasuke, Nobunaga's retainer who had allied with Naoe following his lord's death.[6]
