Kingdom

It is the Warring States period in China. As friends Shin and Hyo practice sword fighting, a minister demands that Hyo accompany him to the palace.

Shin meets Ei Sei, a boy identical to Hyo. Just then, assassin Jo Kan strikes. When Jo Kan laughs that he killed Hyo, Shin tries to avenge his friend.

Shin and Sei try to slip through the army’s siege with the help of Ka Ryo Ten. Shin is incensed when Sei tells him that Hyo was his body double.

As Shin, Sei and Ten head toward the rendezvous point set up by minister Shou Bun Kun, they are confronted by a new assassin, the bloodthirsty Muta.

Sei’s words of encouragement inspire Shin to unleash his full power. At the capital Kanyou, General Ou Ki delivers Shou Bun Kun’s head.

Outraged by the death of Hyo, Shin threatens Shou Bun Kun. However, Shin is moved when vice minister Heki explains that Hyo died as a hero.

En route to meet the Mountain King, Sei and the others hear rumor of the mountain people’s brutal nature. Suddenly, the mountain people surround them!

Shin and the others aim to rescue Sei, but are stunned by the imposing mountain keep. The Mountain King rejects Sei’s offer and calls for his head.

Shin and the others return to camp with the mountain people. They plan the attack on Kanyou. Shin is stunned by how much fewer soldiers they have.

Shin and the others dress as mountain people and slip through the castle gates. This fateful place is where the decisive battle shall be waged!
