In the tumultuous world of *Assassin's Creed Shadows*, chaos breeds opportunists who thrive on the suffering of others. Amidst this turmoil, the Brotherhood stands as a beacon of justice, with Naoe and Yasuke dedicated to protecting the innocent. If you're on a quest for justice and need to locate all Kabukimono members in *Assassin's Creed Shadows* to bring them to heel, let us guide you through the process.
The Kabukimono
Your journey to dismantle the Kabukimono begins in the Settsu region. Here, you'll meet the compassionate priest, Shin'nyo, who will task you with rooting out these ronin and restoring peace to the area. The Kabukimono are a group of flamboyant ronin who act with impunity, disregarding the law and harming anyone they choose. It's up to the assassins to intervene and provide the populace with some much-needed tranquility. In total, eight members make up this notorious faction.
How and Where to Find All Kabukimono Members in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
*Assassin's Creed Shadows* challenges players to uncover the whereabouts of their targets through exploration and clue-following. However, if you're looking to expedite your mission, here's a direct guide to locating each Kabukimono member:
Ghost General
The Ghost General, leader of the Hungry Ghosts, is known for his insatiable appetite and leads his gang to consume everything in their path. To find him, head to the city of Sakai in the southwestern part of the Izumi Settsu region. Navigate to the Money Changer District in the western part of the city. Given the overwhelming numbers of his followers, it's wise to eliminate the ronin one by one or leverage Yasuke's abilities to level the playing field.
Grave Dancer
The Grave Dancer heads the Defilers, a gang that reveres nothing and embraces the corruption enveloping the land. To confront him, travel northeast from Sakai along the main road until you reach the Sumiyoshi Shrine, south of Osaka. Here, among the graves, you'll find the Grave Dancer. Dispatch him to his final resting place using the Hidden Blade or any weapon of your choice.
Ember
Ember leads the Firebrands, a group intent on purifying the world through fire and destruction. To find him, journey north from Sakai into Osaka, heading to the Fishermen's District. Continue north past the district to locate some burned-down buildings, where Ember awaits. Be cautious of your surroundings and clear out any additional threats before engaging this pyromaniac. Extinguish his flame and save countless lives from a fiery fate.
Big Sueki
Big Sueki, a ronin who trades honor for sake, leads a gang similarly inclined. Their pursuit of pleasure comes at the expense of others. To end their revelry, head to Muko Post Town, just north of Amagasaki Castle in the western part of Izumi Settsu. If you're near the moat, the location is nearby. Use the surrounding bamboo and thickets for a stealthy approach and deliver your own party favor to Big Sueki.
Chief Cuckoo
Once honorable samurai, Chief Cuckoo and his followers have fallen into disrepute, now harassing peasants and driving them from their homes. To stop them, travel to the city of Katano in the central part of Izumi Settsu. At the southern edge of the town, you'll find the Katano Oil Trading location, where Chief Cuckoo is stationed. Utilize the environment to your advantage and bring this villain to an explosive end.
Corrupt Blade, Laughing Man, and Peacock
After dealing with the other members, three more Kabukimono remain: 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 these members individually or collectively. Opting for the latter saves time; from the shrine, travel west to Kakogawa Estuary, then northeast following the roads to reach Takagi Otsuka Fort. Continue east to find the trio in a courtyard next to a medium-sized hut. This battle will be challenging, but you can use nearby NPCs to distract the enemies and strike when opportunities arise. Eliminate all three to permanently dismantle the Kabukimono.
That's all you need to know about locating and confronting all Kabukimono members in *Assassin's Creed Shadows*. For more guidance on the game, be sure to explore resources available at The Escapist.
