In 17th Century Japan the country is divided into to two warring clans. The Eastern Army led by the Warlord Tokugawa and the Western Army, which fights for Toyotomi's clan. Even after victory at their last battle, things still aren't going the way of the Eastern Army and Toyotomi believes that the only way to turn the tide of war is to obtain firearms. To this end he sends his most trusted Samurai, Mayeda and his son Yourimuneto Spain with a small party of soldiers and a Franciscan monk to purchase 5,000 muskets. But treachery plagues the band on their way
to Spain and subsequently in the court of the Kings... (aka "Shogun Warrior" / "Shogun Mayeda") |
