Munenori Yagyu

As a master instructor of the Yagyū Shinkage-ryū martial art, this figure held a position of loyalty to the Tokugawa Shogunate. He was an observer of the dramatic duel between Yashamaru and Kazamachi, and participated in the ongoing conflict alongside Ieyasu. Due to the intense animosity and powerful fighting styles displayed, he held a harsh view of the ninjas from Kouga and Iga, perceiving them as more demonic than human.
