Biography[edit | edit source]

After the Tenshō Iga War, Oda Nobunaga commissioned a group of nine soldiers to dress and patrol as yamabushi. Their goal was to find and kill any remaining Igan soldiers who had survived the war. However, as time passed, the soldiers became more deranged and bloodthirsty, killing any innocents along their path.[1]

In 1582, the yamabushi Genpaku talked with the Kakushiba ikki members Fujibayashi Naoe and Yasuke, who agreed to help him rid the country of these false monks. Following Genpaku's lead, they investigated the stream at the Mitarai Valley in Yamato and found a dead body that came upstream. Following the stream, they came across the imposter practicing his kata while surrounded by more corpses. Upon confronting him, Naoe and Yasuke assassinated the imposter and retrieved the bow Susanoo's Torrent from his personal effects.[1]
