Chapter 4 - A Captive Goddess
- Watch the cutscene. When you regain control of Ryu, you will still be in the train system. Upgrade your weapons and restock at the nearby Muramasa shop before heading out.
- When ready, continue down the tunnel and encounter a group of Ninjas. Defeat them all and continue onward.
- You will encounter another crowd of Ninjas as you proceed forward. Eliminate them.
- TIP: At this point you should definitely be using the Izuna Drop (X Y X X X Y) throw technique to control crowds of Ninjas. This gives you a chance to systematically deal with a large crowd one-by-one. Also, the Guillotine Throw technique (X + A jumping towards enemy) can divide your enemies, and if well aimed can damage any surrounding enemies in the way.
- When the Ninjas are down continue onward. There will be a hole at the end of the path. Drop down and encounter another group of Melee Ninjas. When they're down, eplore the area.
- Keep heading down the tunnel to your right. More Ninjas attack you. Eliminate them.
- After they're down continue down the path and a find chest to your left with Red Orbs.
- TIP: Again, when you're in doubt, use Ninpo attacks on groups of enemies. #Continue forward. You will encounter Demon Spawns and Flying Demons. In order of priority, first eliminate the Flying Demons (remember to jump using the Fiend's Bane Bow, and get two shots off in a single jump), then the Demon Spawns. For the Demon Spawns, remember to make good use of Obliteration Techniques, Flying Swallow and Ninpo if needed.
- When the demons are cleared jump onto the main floor and save your game at the save point.
- Continue up the ladder for a battle with more Melee Ninjas and Ninpo Ninjas. Remember to eliminate the Ninpo Ninjas first, as they can be a problem.
- When the Ninjas are down, go through the rotating doorway and find a corpse with some ARROWS.
- Head down to your left and find a chest containing a Devil Way Mushroom.
- Another batch of ninjas will attack you. Kill them. When they're gone, go up the stairs and examine the locked doorway. Use your incendiary shurikens to destroy the fire canisters on the other side, which will blow open the door.
- Keep heading up the stairs and destroy any enemies along the way.
- When you're back out in the open area, a mob of Ninja Dogs will ambush you.
- TIP: The Ninja Dogs are very quick. Keep evading their attacks by using Reverse Wind (LT + L), blocking whenever you can and also use your Ninpo if you have any. Keep moving so they can't hit you with incendiary shurikens.
- When they're eliminated, keep heading down the path. You will come to an area overlooking the ocean.
- More Ninjas and Ninpo Ninjas will attack you. Deal with them using Izuna Drop, Flying Swallow, Ninpo and other crowd-control techniques.
- Head forward under the bridge. To your immediate right find an alley way with more Ninjas. Eliminate them, make a left and continue on.
- To your right find a corpse with an Herb of Spiritual Life.
- Turn around, and up on the top of the ledge find a Crystal Skull. If you're facing the skull, you need to wall-run up the wall and onto the next wall to obtain it.
- Continue onward, and you'll be out of the ally and into the open area again. #Save #Save your game at the save point, and stock up at the Muramasa shop.
- When you continue forward, More Ninjas will attack. At the very end of the path to your right, find some exploding canisters. Blow them up to reveal a chest containing Red Orbs.
- Next to the save point find a ladder. Climb it to the top area. Examine the dead body for a Jewel of the Demon Seal. Explore the area a bit.
- When you're ready, use a jump slash to get to the other bridge and continue on until you find a chest containing a Talisman of Rebirth.
- NOTE: In order to use the Talisman of Rebirth, you'll need to equip it in the items menu. Save the Talisman of Rebirth for difficult boss battles.
- Go back to the previous area, and continue forward, all the way around the corner.
- Flying Demons will attack you. Use the Fiend's Bane Bow to eliminate them.
- At the very end of the path find a chest containing an Herb of Spiritual Life. #Across the way you will see Crystal Skull on a ledge. To reach it, use Flying Swallow. If you fall, simply wall-climb back up and get back on the bridge to try again.
- Once you have the skull, drop back down and head to the right and find a Muramasa shop. Upgrade and restock. Open the chest across from from the shop for a Life of the Gods.
- When you're ready, head back the way you came and fight a crowd of Demon Spawns. Kill them all.
- Wall-climb back to the top and jump on the bridge, then jump slash to the ledge where you found the skull and climb the ladders to the top. Jump to the open area and be ready for several more Demon Spawns and Flying Demons. Use Ninpo if you have, since battles like this can be overwhelming. Don't stay idle near Demon Spawns for too long, as they can grab you and deal major damage.
- Now continue down the path and examine the dead body for more arrows. Go up the ladder and drop down. Save your game at the save point.
- Facing the save point, head to your left and take out of those Flying Demons. At the end of the path find a chest that contains Grains of Spiritual Life.
- TIP: Remember that the best way to destroy Flying Demons is by jumping and shooting bows at them.
- Go back the other way, past the save point. Continue and trigger the cutscene.

Sub-Boss - Giant Brute Fiend
- TIP: In order to make this boss fight less frantic, go directly underneath the beast and him with short combos. After you've slashed him up for some damage, Reverse Wind out of range for safety. He will stomp the ground at times but keep attacking. This is one of your best bets.
- TIP: Keep running in circles. Because of his lack of speed, he won't be able to hit you if you continually run circles around him.
- TIP: Definitely make good use of your Ninpo if you have any, since a direct hit will cause a good amount of damage.
- Stay away from his mouth at all times. You need to avoid his breath attack, which can kill you in one hit if you're not careful. Instead stay either directly under him, to his side or in back of him.
- Avoid his attack where he hits the ground with his massive fists. Use Flying Swallow and Reverse Wind to dodge away from the blast radius.
- If you get too close, he'll hit you with his mighty fists which can take off quite a bit of health. He'll also throw rocks at you if you're not in close range.
- Do your best to avoid his grab attack. If he does grab you, he smashes you into the ground about three times before letting go.
- TIP: It is possible to stun the Giant Brute Fiend if he takes enough quick damage. When you see him slump over, either move in close and unload combos on him, or charge up an Ultimate Technique to finish him off.
- Defeating him will trigger a cutscene.
- Blip.tv: Ninja Gaiden II Walkthrough - Chapter 4 - Sub-Boss Fight (Time: 2:12)
- When you regain control over Ryu, you will be immediately tossed into another battle with a group of Demon Spawns and Flying Demons. As always, prioritize the Flying Demons first, then the Demon Spawns.
- After the demons are eliminated, continue into the building ahead. Refill your arrows from the corpse.
- Ninjas will attack soon after you enter the building. Take them down.
- Continue forward and save your game at the save point. You'll need to break the glass to get to it.
- Directly to the left of the save point find a new weapon, the Dragon's Claw and Tiger's Fang. Break the glass to obtain the new weapon.
- See the full Dragon's Claw and Tiger's Fang combo list below.
- Continue forward and encounter a group of Ninjas. After they're down, explore what looks like a museum.
- hen ready, continue through a short series of doorways until you get to a new area with more Ninjas. You're in the right place if you see a huge statue in the center that resembles fire. Kill all of the Ninjas.
- After they're defeated, use the stairs and to your right and you will be a broken section of wall, leading to the upper level. Wall-run up to it, and find a corpse with containing a Devil Way Mushroom.
- Head back the other way, and go through the hole in the wall. You will be attacked by another group of Demon Spawns.
- TIP: If you've learned a few combos with the Lunar Staff, this can be an effective weapon against the Demon Spawns. Also bear in mind, later in the game you will receive the Eclipse Scythe, a much somewhat similar weapon to the Lunar Staff, but much more powerful. Demon Spawns won't always be as much of a threat.
- After they're dead, find a chest in the corner containing an Herb of Spiritual Life.
- Facing the building, to your right there will be a stairway leading to another open area with more Demon Spawns and Flying Demons. Destroy the Flying Demons first, then the Demon Spawns. Remember to jump and shoot the Fiend's Bane Bow, which makes destroying them a lot easier.
- Take the open set of stairs on the right up to the top of the building. Purple demons ambush you again so get rid of them quickly.
- Take the left path and go up the stairs. You will encounter another group of Demon Spawns. Eliminate them using Ninpo, ground combos, the Lunar Staff, or other previously suggested techniques.
- When you're ready, look for a doorway that leads back into the museum. Ninjas and archers will attack you. Take out the archers as soon as you can, then focus on the Ninjas.
- Find a chest in a corner containing a Lives of a Thousand Gods. Use it.
- Go up the stairs and save your game at the save point.
- Go back downstairs and jump onto the structure ahead. Continue onward.
- Drop down to the lower level, and enter the elevator. Wall jump to the upper level and encounter more Ninjas.
- Take the stairs halfway up, and observe the ledges ahead that you can jump to. Wall-run forward along the walls and fall onto one of the ledges. Wall-run again to reach the other side.
- Drop down and open up the chest containing Red Orbs.
- Continue up the stairs and there will be a door that leads outside. To your right find a chest with a Life of the Gods. Here you'll also be attacked by more Flying Demons. Dispose of them using the Fiend's Bane Bow.
- When the demons are eliminated go back inside and head further up the stairs. Stock up at the Muramasa shop. Also, find the corpse with a Devil Way Mushroom.
- Now head up the spiral staircase and there will be an opening half way up. Wall-run up the wall in front of it and continue until you're at the top.
- Defeat the enemies that attack you. When they're down, examine the corpse to your right for a scroll that reads "The Four Greater Fiends: Part 2".
- Now enter the spiral staircase and head all the way up. Watch the cutscene.
Boss - Alexei
- TIP: The only real strategy here is to stay on the offense. Stay very close, and use the Dragon Sword to get in quick ground combos. If you move too far out of range, Alexei will use his nearly unblockable ranged attacks. Ninpo attacks are unfortunately very unreliable in this battle, since he will usually block them using his tornado technique, but they can work occasionally and are good for getting you out of a tight spot.
- TIP: Use Flying Swallow a lot in this battle.
- BEWARE: Watch of for his spinning tornado attack. Use Reverse Wind to dodge out of the way.
- BEWARE: If you stay idle next to him for too long, he will hold you up in the air and hit you around two or three times before letting you go. Keep moving.
- Alexei will also fly and teleport around the area so watch out for that. Try and constantly attack him, and only use Reverse Wind for a short period of time before starting your attacks again.
- When he's down watch the cutscene. This will conclude Chapter 4.
- Achievement: Vanquish Alexei
- Achievement: Finished Chapter 4
