Final Arrangements

Japan, Edo.

Yagyu Shin'in-ha Dojo, Inner Courtyard.

Two opposing forces, like abyss and demon, clashed within the dojo, resembling the ebb and flow of waves, sweeping through the entire space.

The disciples practicing swordsmanship in the dojo were filled with both anticipation and apprehension, their emotions fluctuating with each breath and shift in the atmosphere.

The Yagyu Shin'in-ha desperately needed a leader to guide them. With Yagyu Tajima as the head, their sect could ascend to new heights, becoming the rightful successors of the ninja tradition.

The turmoil persisted for about fifteen minutes until, at a particular juncture, the surging tide of emotions gradually subsided.

Within the room, Yagyu Tajima's voice resonated.

"Jube, Yuki, Yagyu Misaki, come in."

The three exchanged glances, their eyes reflecting anticipation, desire, and joy. Without hesitation, they entered the room together.
