The '''attack on Daisen-ryō Kofun''' was a pre-meditated attack on the [[Daisen-ryō Kofun]], which acted as an [[Assassins|Assassin]] safehouse in 1569 during the late [[Sengoku period]]. It was fought between the [[Shinbakufu]] and the [[Japanese Brotherhood of Assassins|Kakushiba ''ikki'']]. The former was financially supported by both the ''[[shōgun]]'' [[Ashikaga Yoshiaki]] and his allies, the [[Templars]]. The latter was led by their leader and [[Master Assassin]] [[Fujibayashi Tsuyu]].

The attack ended with the Shinbakufu being victorious, acquiring two of the [[Imperial Regalia of Japan|Imperial Regalia]] while nearly eliminating the Kakushiba ''ikki''. However, [[Hattori Hanzō]] returned to aid Tsuyu, who successfully recovered the remaining Regalia, the {{Wiki|Magatama|Jewel}}, and gave her time while she escaped the ''[[kofun]]''.

==Prelude==
In 1569, [[samurai]] [[Hattori Hanzō]] accompanied his ''[[daimyō]]'' [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]] to a meeting at an [[Oda clan|Oda]] encampment in [[Kyoto]]. Within the meeting, they saw and met with [[Oda Nobunaga]] and ''[[Ashikaga shogunate|shōgun]]'' [[Ashikaga Yoshiaki]]. There, Yoshiaki meets with Hanzō and learns about his time with the [[Iga]]ns. He later told the samurai about how he knows that the late {{Wiki|Emperor of Japan|Emperor}} [[Tomohito|Go-Nara]] entrusted the [[Imperial Regalia of Japan|Imperial Regalia]] to the Igans. He later asked about their location to defend them himself. Stuck between his duties to Ieyasu and Nobunaga and his allies, Hanzō reluctantly revealed their location at the [[Daisen-ryō Kofun|''kofun'']] near [[Sakai]].<ref name="Ch 30">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows – Tales of Iga]]'' – [[Assassin's Creed: Shadows – Tales of Iga Chapter 30|Chapter 30]]</ref>

Pleased, Yoshiaki told his ally the great news. His ally, [[Templars|Templar]] [[Nuno Caro]], was immediately thankful for Hanzō's help. Realizing the [[Templar insignia|Templar cross]] around his neck, Hanzō nearly unsheathed his ''[[yari]]'' but regressed upon further thought of how it may impact Ieyasu. With this betrayal, he immediately left for Iga and found Tsuyu and [[Fujibayashi Nagato|Nagato]] with their daughter [[Fujibayashi Naoe|Naoe]]. Nevertheless, he informed Tsuyu of the impending attack,<ref name="Ch 30"/> to which she garnered her league member to defend the ''[[kofun]]''.<ref name="Ch 29">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows – Tales of Iga]]'' – [[Assassin's Creed: Shadows – Tales of Iga Chapter 29|Chapter 29]]</ref>

==The attack==
Despite their full defense of the ''kofun'', Tsuyu and her [[Japanese Brotherhood of Assassins|Kakushiba ''ikki'']] suffered a huge loss, due to the [[Mercenary|mercenaries]]<ref name="Ch 30"/>, known as the [[Shinbakufu]], having had killed most of the league members.<ref name="Secrets of the Blade">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]'' – [[Secrets of the Blade]]</ref> In his last moments, [[Konan]] saw Hanzō arrive before succumbing to his wounds. In the attack, the Shinbakufu managed to obtain and steal two of the Regalia away. Within the pedestal room, [[Kuroiwa Gonjou-rou]], along with two fellow Shinbakufu [[soldier]]s, saw the remaining Regalia, the {{Wiki|Magatama|Jewel}}, and took it. [[Hachi-rou]], although bleeding out, tried to stop him but was ultimately cut down.<ref name="Ch 30"/>

Before Gonjou-rou could leave and complete the mission, Tsuyu surprised him and killed him, taking back the Jewel. Taking down one of the soldiers, Tsuyu dodged an [[arrow]] from the remaining soldier. Yet, the soldier was cut down by Hanzō, who gave Tsuyu time to escape with the Jewel. Meanwhile, Hanzō and [[Momochi Sandayu]] stayed to defeat the remaining Shinbakufu soldiers, leaving them the only survivors of the attack, along with Tsuyu.<ref name="Ch 30"/>

==Aftermath==
Tsuyu fortunately made her way back to Iga and met with Nagato with the Jewel in hand. Telling her that the league has fallen and two of the Regalia were taken, she tasked him to hide the Jewel and lie about her survival to everyone, including Naoe. Burdened, Nagato accepted the terms and wished her luck after promising that they will see each other again. Hanzō soon received a message about Tsuyu's apparent death, filling him with remorse. However, he refused to believe it and promised to protect Iga and find Tsuyu himself. Meanwhile, Nagato hid the Jewel in [[Mihata Kofun]] and also promised to protect Iga in honor of Tsuyu.<ref name="Ch 30"/><ref name="The Meaning of the Blade">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]'' – [[The Meaning of the Blade]]</ref>

Ashton's hammer is unnamed, but that's clearly intended to be it. From a game design perspective, they probably wanted unique weapons, so it was the kanabo, yumi bow, long katana, kusarigama, or naginata; there aren't any iconic spears or longswords, and nothing equivalent to the kusarigama, so that leaves the bow (Fenthras our only option) or the kanabo (no greatclubs, so either Ashton's hammer or a sized up Pike's mace?). The other options make it 3-1 for Vox Machina, so the hammer is an easy choice. Which is to say, I don't think there was a better choice, and it's kind of nice for his hammer to get a name, but it is also the one where I was the most confused.}}</ref> Visually and in its description text, it copies elements from the [[war hammer]]<ref name="CriticalWiki">{{Cite web|url=https://criticalrole.miraheze.org/wiki/Ashton_Greymoore's_hammer|title=Ashton Greymoore's hammer|author=Encyclopedia Exandria|date=29 June 2025|publisher=''Miraheze''|accessdate=15 October 2026}}</ref> that the {{Wiki|Dark Sun#Playable races|Genasi}} {{Wiki|Barbarian (Dungeons & Dragons)|barbarian}} Ashton Greymoore wields in conjunction with probability chaos magic.

Unlike the other gear in the ''[[Critical Role Weapon Pack]]'' that has equivalents in the 2025 video game ''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]'', war hammers are not available for player use, so [[Ubisoft]] decided to represent it as a ''kanabō''. Although Ashton's weapon is unidentified in-series,<ref name="CriticalReddit"/> this ''kanabō''{{'}}s name is still connected to Ashton.

==Behind the scenes==
A Sword of Fathoms is the name for a series of [[falchion]]s from the [[United States|American]] web series ''Critical Role''{{'}}s {{Wiki|Critical Role campaign two|second campaign}}, in which they are all manifestations of the pact a {{Wiki|Warlock (Dungeons & Dragons)|warlock}}-class character makes with the undersea leviathan Uk'otoa for it to be their patron. They are not magical themselves but can absorb magical weapons and replicate their powers, although every successive absorption gradually relinquishes older items to the sea beast and prevents wielders from calling upon past skills.<ref name="CriticalWiki">{{Cite web|url=https://criticalrole.miraheze.org/wiki/Sword_of_Fathoms|title=Sword of Fathoms|author=Encyclopedia Exandria|date=31 August 2025|publisher=''Miraheze''|accessdate=13 October 2026}}</ref>

Despite it visually adhering to how true falchions are made for one-handed use, ''Critical Role'' treats it like a [[heavy weapon]], specifically a greatsword, in accordance with the rules from ''{{Wiki|Dungeon & Dragons}}''{{'}} fifth edition supplementary sourcebook ''{{Wiki|Explorer's Guide to Wildemount}}''.<ref name="CriticalWiki"/> Continuing this misrepresentation, the weapon as [[Ubisoft]] depicts it in the 2025 video game ''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]'' is just a skin that reuses ''katana'' animations even though this slashing weapon is improperly designed and unbalanced to be handled in the ways that various ''{{Wiki|kobudō}}'' would require of it.

'''''Assassin's Creed: Shadows – Tales of Iga'' Chapter 30''' is the thirtieth, and final, chapter of the manga ''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows – Tales of Iga]]'', a prequel to ''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]''. The manga, written and illustrated by [[Reguje]], was released on 8 October 2026.

==Summary==
;1569, [[Izumi Settsu]] 
[[Hattori Hanzō]] accompanies his ''[[daimyō]]'' [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]] to meet with [[Oda Nobunaga]] at one of his military encampments in [[Kyoto]]. Walking into the conference square, they met with Nobunaga and the ''[[Shōgun]]'' [[Ashikaga Yoshiaki]], the fifteenth ''shōgun'' of the [[Ashikaga shogunate|Muromachi shogunate]]. Yoshiaki asks Ieyasu who is with him, to which Ieyasu introduces his trusted ''[[samurai]]'' who had lived a moment in [[Iga]]. Hearing that the late {{Wiki|Emperor of Japan|Emperor}} [[Tomohito|Go-Nara]] entrusted the [[Imperial Regalia of Japan|Imperial Regalia]] to the [[Iga ikki|Igans]], he questions Hanzō on their location so he may defend them indefinitely.

Caught between his duties to his retainer and the relationship between him and Nobunaga, Hanzō pauses with his answer before telling that it is at the ''[[kofun]]'' in [[Sakai]]. Surprised, Yoshiaki calls out to his ally [[Nuno Caro]] about the [[Daisen-ryō Kofun|location]] while Caro thanks Hanzō for his help. Realizing Caro to be a [[Templars|Templar]], Hanzō nearly unsheathes his ''[[yari]]'' but realizes the impact it may have on Ieyasu. Thus, he releases the grip but afterwards, he immediately leaves to warn his former compatriots.

;1569, Iga 
Coming back to Iga, Hanzō finds and spies on [[Fujibayashi Tsuyu|Tsuyu]] and [[Fujibayashi Nagato]] with their daughter [[Fujibayashi Naoe|Naoe]] at their [[Naoe's House|home]]. Nevertheless, he later warns Tsuyu about the location of the Regalia being compromised, to which prompts her to leave with her [[Japanese Brotherhood of Assassins|league]].

;1569, Izumi Settsu 
Worried, Hanzō races to the ''kofun'' to check on them, but is horrified to see [[Shinbakufu|a group of mercernaries]] having killed all the ''[[Ninja|shinobi]]''. While the [[Mercenary|mercenaries]] look over the dead ''shinobi'', [[Konan]], who has lost his left arm, sees Hanzō before dying of his injuries. Inside the tomb, [[Kuroiwa Gonjou-rou]] grabs the box with the remaining regalia, the {{Wiki|Magatama|Jewel}}, while a bleeding [[Hachi-rou]] tries to stop him, but is ultimately killed. Gonjou-rou, carrying Konan's and Hachi-rou's arms with their [[hidden blade|gauntlets]] attached, believes that these are the keys for the Assassins' tombs.

When the ''[[rōnin]]'' begins to leave, Gonjou-rou is surprised by Tsuyu, who kills him swiftly with her hidden blade and grabs the box. When one of the mercernaries tries to stop her, she kills him next. She dodges an [[arrow]] launched by the remaining man, who is killed by Hanzō. Hanzō tells Tsuyu to go while he holds the rest off while she remarks on her weariness.

;1569, Iga 
Masayasu waits for Tsuyu atop a watchtower while [[Matsu]] watches over Naoe in their home. Fortunately, he sees her arrive but is astounded by the presence of the Jewel in her possession. She admits that her league has fallen and that she and [[Momochi Sandayu]], who carried out in killing the rest of the intruders, were the remaining survivors. Tsuyu gives the Jewel to Masayasu and tells him to hide it and her survival from the attack from everyone, including Sandayu and Naoe. She vows to go and to retrieve the remaining regalia but Masayasu wonders of going with her. She tells him that she is fighting not only for her freedom, but for all those in Iga. He promises and tells her that he will wait for her.

Elsewhere, Hanzō reads the news of how Tsuyu had died and begins to feel remorse over what he has caused.
