The Corrupt Daikan was a virtual representation of one of Fujibayashi Naoe's and Yasuke's genetic memories, relived through the Animus EGO.[1]
Description
Oichi's bodyguard Kuma tasks Naoe and Yasuke to eliminate the corrupt daikans who steal from the poor across Japan.
Dialogue
Still in Ōmi, Naoe and Yasuke traveled to Nomura Village in the east, where they found the daikan Gamo Morinari, otherwise known as The Sword Hunter, with his group of guards.
- Gamo Morinari: This does not tally with the census. Some of those peasant rats must be hiding their swords.
- Ashigaru Spearman: What happened here?
Naoe and Yasuke traveled to Ōtsu, where they overheard two women talking about the daikan.
- Woman 1: The trees in the daikan's estate are so lush, a fly would not fit through the foliage.
- Woman 2: Must be something in the soil. Such fertile land.
They passed by a woman and a man outside the daikan's residence.
- Man: Isshiki Mansaku think he's too good for us now. He won't even see us, much less share his riches.
- Woman: Can you believe he used to wait outside our doors and under our latrines to collect waste for sale?
- Man: Now he's ordering us to pay our taxes in waste. Imagine!
On another side of the residence outskirts, they eavesdropped on two fieldworkers.
- Fieldworker 1: The daikan was once lowlier than us. What sort of riches did he earn from selling waste?
- Fieldworker 2: He spent it all on keeping people out. That huge gate is the only way in and it's always guarded.
- Fieldworker 1: I have heard there is an opening around back.
Naoe and Yasuke headed further down the road, where they overheard a conversation between two children.
- Child 1: Eugh, that smell! What's the daikan keeping in there?
- Child 2: Eeh, is it coming from the house, or is it coming from you? (giggles)
- Child 1: Hey!
Having learned an opening at the back of the residence, Naoe and Yasuke headed there and found a way into the building undetected. The two found the daikan walk around the premises and assassinated him when he was alone.
- Naoe: That was one dirty daikan. Good riddance.
The Concubine Naoe and Yasuke traveled to Kyoto in Yamashiro to hunt their third target, Ise Asuka, otherwise known as The Concubine. They found their target inside a house at a Noh theater southeast of Honnō-ji and assassinated him.
- Naoe: Three of the corrupt daikan are dead. I must finish the rest.
The Hedonist
Naoe and Yasuke traveled to the Outer Farmlands west of Ōmizo, where they came across a group of children resting during farming work.
- Child 1: "Moe, carry that basket!" "Moe, get the plow!" I don't want to farm rice anymore, I want to play!
- Child 2: Be strong, Moe. The Oda are gone. We can only rely on ourselves now.
The two them reached the north entrance to Omizo, where they overheard two fieldworkers.
- Fieldworker 1: Water. Please. I can't go on.
- Fieldworker 2: Get up! If the daikan's men see you like this, it's over for both of us!
They also found a fieldworker pleading with one of the daikan's guard.
- Ashigaru Spearman: If the daikan wants 5000 koku, then the daikan gets 5000 koku. Understand?
Fieldworker: But we don't even have enough land in the domain to produce that rice!
- Ashigaru Spearman: Is that my problem, or yours? Maybe if you spent as much time tilling as you did yapping, you'd get it done.
Naoe and Yasuke traveled to the daikan residence north of Ōmizo Castle, finding it heavily guarded as expected. The two managed to enter the estate and overheard the daikan flirting with a woman.
- Okudaira Toshizo: Give me a smooch, come on. Just a taste.
- Woman: (giggles)
They entered the house and assassinated Toshizo.
- Naoe: The daikan Okudaira Toshizo is dead. The fieldworkers will no longer have to suffer for his selfishness.
Inside the house, they also looted a letter addressed to Toshizo.
Of Utmost Urgency
- Lord Toshizo,
Please write to me when you can. Many seasons have passed with no word from you, and your fief is crumbling to ruin. Starvation has decimated generations of families; others have protested the rice levies have been crushed by your samurai.
Please, lord. Have you received the letters I sent you? You must turn your attention back to the realm. Please.
Your advisor,
- Tamakichi
Outcome
Naoe and Yasuke eliminated the corrupt daikans on Kuma's behalf.
