During the Sengoku era, Japan was torn by endless bloodshed as warlords vied for dominance and unification. Among them, Nobunaga Oda—known as the "Demon King of Ōwari"—emerged as the most formidable leader. Whether ally or adversary, he resolved to crush anyone who opposed his plan for a despotic central state.
Only two figures dared challenge Oda: Masamune Date, the "One‑Eyed Dragon of Ōshu," and Yukimura Sanada, a fierce yet honorable warrior from the Takeda house. Though both opposed Oda"s consolidation of power, they could not agree on tactics. Each a master swordsman, their mutual respect turned into a bitter rivalry that prevented any unified resistance against the Demon King. Their clashes on the battlefield were legendary, earning them both fear and admiration among their peers.
As Oda"s army advanced toward their lands, Masamune and Yukimura were forced to set aside their feud and unite against the looming tyrant, forging a reluctant alliance to challenge his relentless march toward domination.
