In the tumultuous world of *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, where conflict and chaos reign, there are those who seek to exploit the turmoil for their own gain. Amidst this chaos, the Brotherhood, led by Naoe and Yasuke, stands as a beacon of hope, protecting the innocent from the clutches of the corrupt. For those dedicated to justice and seeking to dismantle the Kabukimono faction, this guide will assist you in locating and confronting all its members.
The Kabukimono
Your quest to dismantle the Kabukimono begins in the Settsu region. Here, you'll encounter Shin’nyo, a kindly priest who will task you with hunting down these rogue ronin, thus saving the region from further distress. The Kabukimono, a group of flamboyant outlaws, operate without regard for the law, causing havoc and harm wherever they go. As an assassin, it's your duty to bring them to justice and restore peace to the land. There are eight key members within this faction that you need to target.
How and Where to Find All Kabukimono Members in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
While *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* encourages exploration and clue-finding to locate targets, we understand that time is of the essence. Here's a detailed guide to help you find each Kabukimono member efficiently:
Ghost General
The Ghost General, leader of the Hungry Ghosts, is known for his voracious appetite and leadership of a gang that devours everything in its path. To find him, head to the city of Sakai in the southwestern part of the Izumi Settsu region. Navigate to the western part of the city to the Money Changer District. Here, you'll encounter the Ghost General. Given the numbers against you, it's wise to take out his followers one by one or leverage Yasuke's abilities to level the playing field.
Grave Dancer
The Grave Dancer leads the Defilers, a group that respects nothing sacred. To confront him, travel northeast from Sakai along the main road, heading towards the Sumiyoshi Shrine, just south of Osaka. It's here, among the graves, that you'll find the Grave Dancer. Dispatch him to his final resting place using the Hidden Blade or any weapon of your choice.
Ember
The Ember, head of the Firebrands, seeks to purify the world through fire and destruction. To stop him, journey north from Sakai into Osaka, heading towards the Fishermen’s District. Just north of this area, you'll find burned-down buildings where the Ember resides. Be cautious of your surroundings, clear out any other threats, and extinguish his fiery ambitions to save countless lives from destruction.
Big Sueki
Big Sueki, a lover of sake, leads a gang that has traded honor for indulgence. To put an end to their revelry, head to Muko Post Town, just north of Amagasaki Castle in the western part of Izumi Settsu. Near the moat, you'll find your target. Use the surrounding bamboo and thickets to approach stealthily and deliver a decisive blow to end their party.
Chief Cuckoo
Once honorable samurai, Chief Cuckoo and his group have fallen into disrepute, now harassing the local peasants. To stop them, travel to the city of Katano in the central part of Izumi Settsu. At the southern edge, you'll find the Katano Oil Trading location, where Chief Cuckoo is stationed. Utilize the environment to your advantage and bring this villain's reign to an explosive end.
Corrupt Blade/Laughing Man/Peacock
After dealing with the other members, you'll face the final three: Corrupt Blade, Laughing Man, and Peacock. Head to the Nishinomiya Shrine, west of Amagasaki Castle. At the entrance, you'll have the option to confront them individually or together. Choosing to face them simultaneously is the most efficient approach. Travel west from the shrine to the Kakogawa Estuary, then ride northeast along the roads to reach Takagi Otsuka Fort. From there, continue east until you find the trio in a courtyard near a medium-sized hut. This battle will be challenging, but use the NPCs to distract them and strike when the opportunity arises. Eliminate all three to eradicate the Kabukimono threat completely.
With this guide, you now have the knowledge to locate and confront all Kabukimono members in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*. For further assistance with the game, be sure to explore resources available on The Escapist.
