In 2205 A.D., evil forces attack the past, threatening to alter the course of history. The judge calls on four swordsmen, with blades blessed by a Shinto priest, to protect the past and save the future. Loyal to their former master, the demon king Oda Nobunaga, they travel back to the Honnoji Temple where he was murdered. Can they stop evil in its tracks and preserve the past? Only time will tell.
Souza is tormented by frequent nightmares of the Honnoji Incident, which serves as a precursor to the arrival of Fudou Yukimitsu, another Oda Nobunaga sword, to the Citadel.
Things come to a head between Fudou Yukimutsu and Heshikiri Hasebe, and Yamanbagiri has to come up with a way to resolve the Oda swords' issues.
Yamanbagiri has been appointed Attendant Sword, and his first task is to come up with a countermeasure to the increase in the Time Retrograde Army's strength. To add to that, Fudou Yukimitsu is also proving to be a problem…
The combat exercise begins, with the ultimate goal of bringing the Oda swords together. But will things go as planned?
Yamanbagiri's squad is in Kyoto to prevent any meddling in the Honnoji Incident. Fudou is excited to be back and goes off alone, only to run into Mori Ranmaru.
With the Honnoji Incident looming, the former Oda swords express their complicated feelings about their former owner. And Akechi Mitsuhide raises the curtain on the fateful battle...
The corrupted Mori Ranmaru makes his last stand, and the squad has complicated feelings going up against him.
Fudou Yukimitsu goes after Mitsuhide in a bid to carry out Ranmaru's wish as the Honnoji Incident comes to a close.
