Shogun's Ninja (Ninja bugeicho momochi sandayu / 忍者武芸帖 百地三太夫)

Toei Company LTD.

SHOGUN'S NINJA

Momochi's castle hasn't fallen.

Lord Nobunaga is frustrated.

Can't something be done, Shogen?

Sandayu is good at battle.

As expected of a ninja of Iga.

Shut up!

The reason I called you is

about the head of the hated Sandayu Momochi.

We must take him by force.

I created these two.

Kinu has no tongue to speak.

Baruku has no ears to hear.

I am at one with these who do not know.

They are part of my body.

I see.

I'm depending on you.

Lord.

You can fight with something other than bows and guns.

Please leave it up to me.

HIDEYOSHI HASHIBA The courage of Koga ninja.

This is a good chance to display the terror of Shogen Shiranui.

SHOGEN SHIRANUI It's still too early to appear in the world.

At the moment,

I am an instigator in the shadows for the Lord.

March in the ninth year of Tensho.

Nobunaga Oda ordered Hideyoshi Hashiba

to march a far superior army to the population of Iga.

And proceeded to massacre the ninja of Iga.

MOMOCHI'S FORTRESS AT IGA It was retribution for the many times

that the ninja of Iga inflicted harm upon

Nobunaga over many battles.

Shogen, I am indebted to you.

SANDAYU MOMOCHI If you help,

we will have the strength of a hundred.

Lord Sandayu,

I can see the bitter face of Hideyoshi.

Well, tell me the strategy.

Shogen, you coward!

You planned this.

There is no cowardice in ninja.

You didn't know I was working for Hideyoshi.

That's why you will lose.

Damn.

Boss! Boss! Boss!

Takamaru.

The dagger is missing.

What?

The dagger has marks of the hidden gold mines that can control the world.

It must be here.

Find it!

Okada Highness. Okada Highness!

Momochi's fortress has fallen.

The boss has died.

Shogen Shiranui of Koga betrayed him.

Shogen?

Yes.

Under the guise of being an ally,

a cowardly trap.

The Lord must have been considerably disappointed.

This wolf is proof of the Momochi family.

You must cherish it.

Here.

Old Man.

Please take care of this child.

- Please come with us, Okada Highness. - No.

You must hurry.

Mother!

You must go!

Takamaru.

Sometimes life is harder than death.

But you must survive no matter what.

- Live well. - Excuse me.

Wait! Young Highness!

Mother!

Young Highness.

Hurry.

One step too late.

Yunosuke, you mustn't forget.

The Momochi family, women and children, each and every last one of them...

massacre them.

Curse me if you wish.

The lessons of a belligerent world.

No right and wrong.

Yatouji.

Old Man.

All of you, survived!

- The young highness is also well. - What?

Otsu, don't cry.

Get away!

Mommy! Mommy!

All of you listen! Massacre them!

MITSUHIDE AKECHI The enemy is at Honouji Temple!

June, the tenth year of Tensho,

Nobunaga Oda was overtaken by Mitsuhide's military.

Shogen, who saw into Mitsuhide's military intentions

secretly warned Hideyoshi.

Hideyoshi was overjoyed.

Without dirtying his own hands,

the irritant Nobunaga disappeared in the flames of Honouji Temple.

HONOUJI INCIDENT

Lord Nobunaga's flag, during the battle for revenge,

was captured and raised high by Hideyoshi's army.

They crushed Mitsuhide's army.

I won't go away. Damn.

Go away.

Mitsuhide's control ended in three days.

Thus, this stage of history turned

and brought forth the days of Bunroku.

Japan.

It's Japan!

This notice is regarding the thief Goemon Ishikawa, the recent ravager of society.

To the large bounty of five large coins and two ryo,

10 large coins will also be rewarded.

What a reward. I want it.

Idiot!

What are you saying?

I can't say it too loud

but Goemon is an honorable thief.

Come on over. Come see.

Japan's number one greatest monkey.

Unusual tricks by Hiyoshimaru!

It doesn't do anything!

It will! It will any moment!

It will at any moment.

Please! Please!

I told you! I told you!

Something for the eyes. Come see.

Mister, you like girls.

Come on and see.

The Kabuki dance is starting.

One step away from a lover's world.

You, sir, from China, come see. One customer coming in!

Hey, hey, hey.

Shake those hips!

What are you saying?

Leave it alone!

Look at you dancers kiss.

Wow! Beautiful!

I can't take it!

Show me!

You're rude!

Knock it off! Knock it off! Knock it off!

Please stop! You're filthy!

Don't mess with officials!

You!

Hey! Get him!

Get him!

Out of the way! What's going on?

He's awesome.

That is...

- Momochi family's talisman sword. - That's right.

Some government officials are coming!

There's a foreigner disturbing the peace!

Arrest him!

- Come. - Come.

He's getting away! Hurry up!

Chase him! Chase him!

This man, quietly planning to overthrow Hideyoshi,

is Leyasu Tokugawa's trusted man.

HANZOU HATTORI

Monta.

Kawajiro.

Uekichi.

Young One. It's so good to have you back.

Old Man and I fell into the ocean back then,

but we were saved by a Chinese ship off shore.

They took us to the mainland.

Is that so?

And Old Man?

He died.

Seven years ago.

Did Otsu make it?

You mean crybaby Otsu?

We all got separated back then.

Dead or alive, we don't know.

I see.

By the way, Young One,

leave the financing of the military resurgence of the Momochi family to us.
