As Jin continues his fight to end the Eagle clan's terror in Iki Island, he must also face the memories of his past, of his father Kazumasa Sakai.
Jin and his father just finished a battle in Iki. The losses in Iki were so great, that it earned Kazumasa the tile 'The Butcher of Iki'. Jin is burdened with guilt of the massive killing, as there were many innocents who also died there.
=============================================================
In 1274, a Mongol fleet led by Khotun Khan invades the Japanese island of Tsushima. Local samurai Lord Jin Sakai and his uncle Lord Shimura lead the island’s samurai in an attempt to repel the invaders. However, the battle ends in disaster, with the samurai killed, Shimura captured, and Jin severely wounded and left for dead. He is found and revived by Yuna, a thief, who informs him the island has fallen. Jin storms Khotun's stronghold at Castle Kaneda in an attempt to rescue Shimura, but is defeated by Khotun in combat and thrown off the castle bridge, though he survives.
Realizing he cannot defeat the Mongols alone or with traditional samurai tactics, Jin travels throughout the island to recruit allies and learns guerilla warfare. He recruits Yuna, her blacksmith brother Taka, merchant Kenji, master archer Sadanobu Ishikawa, female samurai Masako Adachi, and his old friend mercenary Ryuzo and his Straw Hat rōnin. As Jin disrupts Mongol activities and liberates villages across the island, the people begin to revere to him as "The Ghost", a samurai spirit rose against the Mongols. Taka crafts a grappling hook for Jin to scale Castle Kaneda’s walls, and Jin strikes with his allies. Destitute and starving, Ryuzo and the Straw Hats betray Jin to collect the bounty issued on him by Khotun. Jin manages to fend them off, free Shimura, and retake Castle Kaneda. Despite their victory, Khotun has already left to conquer Castle Shimura alongside Ryuzo.
To retake Castle Shimura, Jin recruits Norio, his warrior monks, and Clan Yarikawa. Shimura recruits local pirate Goro to carry a petition for reinforcements to the Shogun, as well as a request for approval to adopt Jin as his heir. With a new army being assembled, Jin recovers his family's ancestral armor from caretaker Yuriko, who teaches him how to craft poison. On orders from Lord Shimura, Jin and Taka try to infiltrate a fortress where Ryuzo is located but are ambushed and captured by Khotun. When Jin refuses to surrender, Khotun kills Taka. Jin escapes with Yuna’s help, killing the remaining Straw Hats, and they bury Taka's body near Yarikawa before the Shogun's reinforcements arrive. Shimura leads the army in an assault on Castle Shimura, driving the Mongols into the inner keep. However, Khotun uses an unexpected tactic that inflicts huge casualties on the samurai. Knowing that more lives will be lost in another frontal attack, Jin decides to poison the Mongols.
Jin infiltrates the castle and sneaks poison into the Mongols' airag. He confronts and kills Ryuzo when he refuses to surrender. Despite the castle being taken bloodlessly, Khotun again has left to campaign further north. Shimura is furious with Jin, as his action severely violates the samurai code. Knowing the Shogun will have Jin executed, for this reason, Shimura asks him to scapegoat Yuna, but Jin refuses and embraces his role as "The Ghost". He is arrested, but manages to escape when Yuna learns of Khotun's whereabouts. Jin travels north, and learns that the Mongols have learned how to craft the poison he used. Before gathering his allies and assaulting Khotun's final stronghold in Port Izumi, Jin leaves a note for Shimura in his castle asking him join the effort with the samurai, which he does. Jin infiltrates the port and kills Khotun on his flagship.
With Khotun dead, the Mongol invasion loses its momentum and the tide turns in the samurai's favor. Shimura informs Jin that the Shogun considers him a threat to the island's stability due to his tactics; he has therefore disbanded Clan Sakai and ordered Shimura to kill Jin. Reminiscing about what they have both lost, Jin and Shimura reluctantly duel each other, with Jin emerging victorious. Jin has the option to either kill Shimura to give him a proper warrior's death or completely abandon the samurai code and spare his life. Regardless of the decision, Jin becomes the enemy of the Shogun.
Now, a new Mongol threat is emerging from Iki Island. This time, the Ghost must face not only this new Mongol force, led by the Eagle, but also Jin's past and the memory of his father's death.
