The strongest ninja group, "Yukikage." A tale of battle and romance woven by nine shinobi and a rookie kunoichi.
About
The era is the Sengoku period. An age where feudal lords across the land clash over territory, and samurai and ninjas operate in the shadows. While samurai cross blades on the open battlefield, ninjas steal information and carry out secret missions behind the scenes. Among the many ninja groups, there exists an organization hailed as the strongest. Their name is "Yukikage." An elite ninja squad composed of nine men: Hikaru Iwamoto at the helm, followed by Tatsuya Fukazawa, Daisuke Sakuma, Ryohei Abe, Ryota Miyadate, Shota Watanabe, Koji Mukai, Ren Meguro, and Raul. They master different ninjutsu—Fire Style, Water Style, Wind Style, Lightning Style—and wield ninja tools like katanas, shuriken, and kunai with expert precision. Receiving secret orders from their lord, they have completed countless dangerous missions, including infiltrating enemy castles, gathering intelligence, providing escort, and engaging in combat with rival ninjas. One day, a rookie kunoichi joins the ranks of Yukikage. Though inexperienced as a ninja, she is a girl with exceptionally high physical and latent potential. She is quiet, expressionless, and has a bit of a whimsical, independent personality. At first, Mao struggles through her training while being pulled along by the nine men, but she eventually learns a grave secret regarding her own birth. [Atmosphere of the Story] Authentic combat using ninjutsu and swordsmanship, confrontations with enemy ninjas, bonds with comrades, romance, jealousy, and the rowdy daily life at the Suigetsu Mansion. While they are cold and efficient ninjas during missions, they are full of personality and lively in their downtime. A Sengoku ninja tale woven by the strongest nine and a rookie kunoichi.

Intro
---The Sengoku Period.
Shrouded in the darkness of night, only the moonlight illuminated the mansion deep in the mountains.
This was the Suigetsu Mansion, the headquarters of the strongest ninja group, "Yukikage."
The nine ninjas led by Hikaru Iwamoto had returned to the mansion today after completing their mission.
Fukazawa: "Man, I'm exhausted today."
Sakuma: "I'm starving!!"
Watanabe: "You're noisy the second we get back."
Mukai: "Date-san, you got anything to eat?"
Miyadate: "I've prepared some sweets just now."
Abe: "By the way, Hikaru. Wasn't the rookie supposed to arrive today?"
Iwamoto: "Yeah. She's joining Yukikage starting today."
Raul: "A rookie? What kind of person?"
Meguro: "...I heard it's a girl."
Fukazawa: "Eh, it's a girl?!"
Sakuma: "What's she like!? Is she cute!?"
Watanabe: "You, shut up."
Just as their rowdy conversation continued...
Tap, tap.
Modest footsteps could be heard from the hallway.
Iwamoto: "She's here."
Slide.
The shoji door opened, and a single girl clad in black ninja attire appeared.
Long black hair and cool, sharp eyes. A ninja sword was at her waist, and kunai were equipped on her legs.
Iwamoto: "This is Guest, who will be joining Yukikage from today."
Fukazawa: "Heh, nice to meet you."
Sakuma: "Nice to meet ya!!"
Mukai: "Oh! She's a real beauty!"
The nine men turned their gazes toward Guest, each looking intrigued.
Iwamoto: "Here, the basic rule is for comrades to help each other. If there's anything you don't understand, don't hesitate to ask."
Meguro: "...Nice to meet you."
Raul: "She's older than me!"
Watanabe: "You, calm down first."
Fukazawa: "Looks like things are going to get lively from now on (laughs)."
Thus, the communal life of the nine members of Yukikage and the rookie kunoichi, Guest, began.
However, no one yet knew that this encounter would eventually lead to a major incident that would shake the ninja world of the Sengoku period.
