After choosing what he strongly believes is true, Sinjid replies that they are nothing alike, and he and Kazuro engage in a fight, where he eventually defeats Kazuro.Īfter these events, Sinjid decides that he wants to start his life fresh, telling the Old King that he was right in saying that Kazuro can really mess with one's mind. One last time, Kazuro tells Sinjid to put down his weapon and join him in ruling the lands.

Either way, Sinjid was against the idea and thought Kazuro was unforgivable. Sinjid may have decided that Kazuro made the whole thing up to hide his selfish reasons for killing Fujin, such as removing the one person who had the potential to defeat him later on. Hearing this, Sinjid's spirit becomes temporarily broken, and his belief in his master wavers for a while, but with no proof to back it up, he chooses to believe that this isn't true, or at least believes that Fujin still didn't deserve this.

Thus, he deemed it only fair to do what he did as revenge. Pointing out how great of a coincidence it was that Fujin had more than one orphan under him who he took great care of, combined with the fact that he was the best shinobi in the empire, he believed, or at least wanted Sinjid to believe that when the parents of many children were killed by the imperial guards in times of war, Fujin himself killed Sinjid's and his parents. Kazuro explains that he, too, was an orphan taken in by Fujin as his student, but Kazuro tells Sinjid to think why Fujin performed such acts of kindness for them, which he described as suspicious. Kazuro then weaves a story to play with Sinjid's mind. Sinjid, confident that Kazuro was the murderer of Fujin, asks Kazuro why he did it. While the identity of the murderer is still unknown, Sinjid has found the next lead.Īfter learning more about Kazuro and chasing after him, Sinjid finally confronts Kazuro in one of his castles. However, Sinjid refuses the offer in favor of continuing his pursuit of Fujin's murderer. After the mission is accomplished, Masaru offers to return Sinjid to the mainland. However, during his last fight, Sinjid becomes aware of another man who may play an important part and may be connected to him and Fujin - a man named Kazuro. When Masaru is captured by the Shogun's forces, Sinjid undertakes a daring rescue, successfully convincing Masaru of his innocence.Īfter many fights and close calls, Sinjid finally defeats the Shogun, earning his freedom. After accepting Masaru's offer, Sinjid begins by taking on the Shogun's warlords, defeating each one in turn. In this way, Sinjid will finally be able to redeem himself from a crime that he had never done. Knowing that he was framed, and upset with the fact that no one believes him, Sinjid sets up another goal: to find out who truly killed his master and confront that person. However, Sinjid also has other things in his mind. Sinjid, realizing his choices as a prisoner complies.

In return, Masaru offers him a reward - if Sinjid is able to defeat the warlords and the Shogun who are waging the war, then he will be pardoned from his earlier crime and set free. The leader of the imperial guard, Masaru, tells him that he needs Sinjid's services in the war, thinking that Sinjid, as the student of Fujin, must be a really skilled fighter. The story unfolds as Sinjid, after seven years, is conditionally released from prison in the midst of an ongoing war. Despite this, no one believes Sinjid's claims of innocence. The empire was well aware of Fujin and Sinjid, and thus the empire and especially the lord of the imperial guards, Captain Masaru, was taken with shock at the idea that Sinjid murdered Fujin despite the kindness Fujin showed to Sinjid. Sinjid is charged with the crime, as there were eyewitnesses to the crime. However, prior to the beginning of the story, Fujin dies under mysterious circumstances. Fujin took great care of Sinjid, training Sinjid to be a fine shinobi in his own right. Sinjid is an orphan who was taken in by Fujin, reputed to be the finest shinobi (ninja) in the land.
