In a land steeped in historical conflict and supernatural threats, a young swordsman named Kojirou Kanemaki seeks answers about his lineage. Drawn into a military alliance led by the Uesugi clan, he joins an expedition to Awaji Island, tasked with confronting Yamata no Orochi, a monstrous eight-headed dragon poised to overwhelm the region. The journey forces Kojirou and his companions to confront not only formidable demons but also internal struggles. Musashi, grappling with feelings of inadequacy within a collaborative environment, must adapt to teamwork while evading the relentless pursuit of the Obsidian Eight – a shadowy organization seeking to exploit a power residing within him. As allegiances shift and hidden agendas surface, the group must navigate a complex web of intrigue to protect the island and safeguard a powerful, enigmatic entity.
