Summary[edit | edit source]
- Mikawa, 1562
Hattori Hanzō recalls the mission to rescue Matsudaira Takechiyo's wife Sena and his children Matsudaira Nobuyasu and Kamehime. Having planned with fellow retainer Watanabe Moritsuna, Hanzō sneaks around Imagawa Mansion and tries to find any proof of Sena and the kids. While thinking about both Tsuyu and his family's honor, he was soon spotted by a soldier. About to kill the soldier, Hanzō stops when the guard asks if he is here to stop the Imagawa clan. While Hanzō tells him of his objective, the guard introduces himself as Amano Kageyasu and begs to help Hanzō on his mission.
While Hanzō retracts his Hidden Blade, Amano states that he knows the Imagawa clan has no future and will die anyway. Hanzō warns Amano not to betray him while the soldier relays information of the mansion. He explains that he knows Sena well and how Takechiyo and Imagawa Ujizane were once close as brothers. Moving to find the captives, Hanzō is questioned about his current position in Iga. There, Hanzō thinks about his time at Momochi Sandayu's place along with learning alongside Fujibayashi Masayasu. At the cell, Hanzō finds the odor of rot and a female corpse, believing it to be Sena.
Elsewhere, Takechiyo ponders for his family while at his encampment. One of his soldiers comes by and tells his lord that the preparations are ready and how they can take down Udono Nagateru's forces in one shot. While ordering his men to launch an attack on Kaminogō Castle, he hopes Moritsuna and Hanzō have his family.
