Your journey to dismantle the Kabukimono begins in the Settsu region, where you'll meet the benevolent priest, Shin’nyo. He'll task you with hunting down these rogue ronin to safeguard the region from further turmoil.
The Kabukimono are a vibrant yet dangerous group of ronin, who operate without regard for law or order, causing havoc wherever they go. It falls to the assassins to bring them to justice and grant the populace some much-needed tranquility.
There are eight distinct targets within the Kabukimono faction awaiting your intervention.
How and Where to Find All Kabukimono Members in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
Assassin’s Creed Shadows challenges players to uncover the locations of their targets through exploration and clue-following, rather than providing explicit directions. If you're looking to streamline your search and confront these ronin directly, here's where you can locate each Kabukimono member:
Ghost General
The Ghost General, leader of the ravenous Hungry Ghosts, can be found in the city of Sakai, situated in the southwestern part of the Izumi Settsu region. Head to the western part of the city to the Money Changer District. Given the overwhelming number of enemies, it's wise to eliminate them one by one or leverage Yasuke's abilities to tilt the odds in your favor.
Grave Dancer
The Grave Dancer, head of the Defilers, who desecrate everything in their path, awaits you near the Sumiyoshi Shrine, just south of Osaka. From Sakai, travel northeast along the main road until you reach this location. Dispatch this ronin, who has no respect for sanctity, using your preferred method, be it the Hidden Blade or another weapon.
Ember
The Ember leads the Firebrands, intent on purifying the world through fire and destruction. To stop him, journey north of Sakai into Osaka, toward the Fishermen’s District. Beyond this area, you'll find some burned-down buildings where Ember is located. Clear the area of other combatants before engaging him to ensure a safer confrontation.
Big Sueki
Big Sueki, a ronin who trades honor for sake, and his gang can be found at Muko Post Town, north of Amagasaki Castle in the western part of Izumi Settsu. Approach stealthily using the surrounding bamboo and thickets to end their revelry decisively.
Chief Cuckoo
Once honorable samurai, now fallen and causing misery for the peasants, Chief Cuckoo and his group can be found at the Katano Oil Trading location on the southern edge of Katano, centrally located in Izumi Settsu. Utilize the environment to your advantage for an explosive confrontation.
Corrupt Blade, Laughing Man, and Peacock
After dealing with the other members, you'll face these final three. Head to the Nishinomiya Shrine, west of Amagasaki Castle, where you can choose to confront them individually or together. Opting for the latter, make your way to Harima's Kakogawa Estuary, then ride northeast to Takagi Otsuka Fort. East of the fort, you'll find them in a courtyard near a medium-sized hut. Use the NPCs to distract them and strike when the opportunity arises, ensuring the complete eradication of the Kabukimono.
