A deadly blood feud between two ninja clans, the Iga Tsubagakure and Kouga Manjidani, exists under an unsteady truce as both are conscripted for use by the new Shogun. Years later, his retirement nearly creates a civil war as factions form supporting which of his grandchildren will succeed his son’s space on the throne. In order to maintain the government, the ceasefire between the ninja clans is lifted with the idea of starting a deadly competition between the top 10 ninjas from both sides. Each clan fights for a faction and the winner will decide who will rise to power in the future government and which clan will have the support of this government for the next thousand years. This complicates matters for Gennosuke and Oboro, heirs from opposing sides of the conflict who had hoped to wed and end the fighting, as they are forced to choose their clan or their love.
