In a world rife with conflict and turmoil as depicted in *Assassin's Creed Shadows*, there are always those who seek to exploit the chaos for their own gain. This is where the valiant efforts of the Brotherhood, with Naoe and Yasuke at the helm, become crucial. They stand as protectors of the innocent, dedicated to bringing justice to the lawless. For players eager to mete out justice and locate all Kabukimono members in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, we've got you covered.

The Kabukimono

Your journey to hunt down the Kabukimono begins in the Settsu region. Here, you'll meet the compassionate priest, Shin’nyo, who will task you with eliminating these rogue ronin to restore peace to the area. The Kabukimono are a group of flamboyant ronin who operate without regard for the law, causing havoc and harm wherever they go. It's up to the assassins to bring them to justice and provide the populace with much-needed tranquility.

There are eight distinct targets within the Kabukimono faction that you'll need to track down.

How and Where to Find All Kabukimono Members in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

As with other targets in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, the game doesn't explicitly reveal their locations. Instead, you're encouraged to explore the world, using provided clues to narrow down your search. However, if you're looking to save time and get straight to the action, here's where you can find each Kabukimono member:

Ghost General

The Ghost General, leader of the Hungry Ghosts, is known for his voracious appetite and leads a gang that devours everything in their path. Follow the clues to Sakai, in the southwestern part of the Izumi Settsu region. Head to the western part of the city to the Money Changer District, where you'll find the Ghost General. Given the numbers against you, it's wise to take out his followers one by one or use Yasuke's abilities to level the playing field.

Grave Dancer

The Grave Dancer leads the Defilers, a gang that respects nothing, fully embracing the corruption that plagues the land. 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. Dispatch him to his own grave using the Hidden Blade or any weapon of your choice.

Ember

Ember, the leader of the Firebrands, is intent on purifying the world through fire and destruction. Head north from Sakai into Osaka, and navigate to the Fishermen’s District. Further north, you'll find burned-down buildings where Ember resides. Be cautious of your surroundings and eliminate any other combatants before engaging him. Extinguish his flame to save countless lives from a fiery fate.

Big Sueki

Big Sueki, a lover of sake, leads a gang that has traded honor for indulgence. 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, use the bamboo and thickets for cover and deliver a decisive strike to end their party.

Chief Cuckoo

Once honorable samurai, Chief Cuckoo and his followers have fallen into disrepute, now making life unbearable for the peasants. Head to Katano, centrally located in the Izumi Settsu region, and find the Katano Oil Trading location at the southern edge of town. Use the environment to your advantage and bring this villain to a fiery end.

Corrupt Blade, Laughing Man, and 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 can choose to confront them individually or gather them in one location for a decisive battle. Opting for the latter, travel west to the Kakogawa Estuary, then northeast to Takagi Otsuka Fort. East of the fort, you'll find the trio in a courtyard next to a medium-sized hut. This battle will be challenging, but you won't be alone. Utilize the NPCs to distract your enemies and strike when the opportunity arises. Eliminate all three to completely eradicate the Kabukimono threat.
