Your quest to dismantle the Kabukimono begins in the Settsu region, where you'll encounter Shin'nyo, the kind-hearted priest. He'll set you on the path to hunt down these rogue ronin and restore peace to the area. The Kabukimono are a group of flamboyant ronin who flout the law, causing chaos and harm without hesitation. It's up to you, the assassin, to bring them to justice and give the people a chance to breathe easy again. There are eight targets within the Kabukimono faction waiting for you.
How and Where to Find All Kabukimono Members in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
In *Assassin's Creed Shadows*, the game doesn't hand you the exact locations of your targets on a silver platter. Instead, it encourages exploration and piecing together clues to narrow down your search. If you're looking to save time and head straight to the ronin, here's where you can find each Kabukimono member:
Ghost General

The Ghost General, leader of the Hungry Ghosts, is known for his insatiable appetite and leads a gang that devours everything in its path. Follow the clues to the southwestern part of the Izumi Settsu region, to the city of Sakai. Head to the western part of the city, where you'll find the Money Changer District. Here, you'll encounter the Ghost General. Given the odds, it's wise to take out his followers one by one before confronting him directly, or leverage Yasuke's strength to level the playing field.
Grave Dancer

The Grave Dancer heads the Defilers, a gang that respects nothing sacred. Their corruption knows no bounds, and there's no redemption for them. From Sakai, travel northeast along the main road until you reach the Sumiyoshi Shrine, south of Osaka. Here, amidst the graves, you'll find the Grave Dancer. Send him to his own grave using your Hidden Blade or any weapon of your choice.
Ember

Ember leads the Firebrands, a group of rogue samurai intent on purifying the world through fire and destruction. Head north from Sakai into Osaka, and find the Fishermen's District. Further north, you'll see burned-down buildings, where Ember awaits. Be cautious of your surroundings, clear out any other combatants first, and then extinguish Ember's flames to save countless lives from a fiery fate.
Big Sueki

Big Sueki and his gang indulge in sake, forsaking honor for their vice. Their pursuit of pleasure disregards the well-being of others. To end their revelry, travel to Muko Post Town, just north of Amagasaki Castle in the western part of Izumi Settsu. Near the moat, you'll find them. Use the bamboo and thickets for cover, and deliver your own party-ending surprise.
Chief Cuckoo

Once honorable samurai, Chief Cuckoo and his followers have fallen from grace, now tormenting peasants and driving them from their homes. Travel to the city of Katano in the center of the Izumi Settsu region. At the southern edge, you'll find the Katano Oil Trading location, where Chief Cuckoo is stationed. Use the environment to your advantage and bring this villain to an explosive end.
Corrupt Blade/Laughing Man/Peacock

After dealing with the other Kabukimono members, you'll face the final three: Corrupt Blade, Laughing Man, and Peacock. Head to the Nishinomiya Shrine west of Amagasaki Castle. At the entrance, you'll have the choice to hunt them down individually or gather them in one spot for a decisive battle. Choosing the latter saves time. From the shrine, head west to Kakogawa Estuary, then ride northeast to Takagi Otsuka Fort. Continue east to find the trio in a courtyard next to a medium-sized hut. This battle won't be easy, but you'll have NPC allies to distract the enemies. Seize the moment to strike and eliminate them all, eradicating the Kabukimono threat once and for all.
