Chapter 5 - The Aqua Capital
- After the cutscene, jump in the water and swim around a bit, getting a feel for your surroundings. Soon you'll be attacked by Melee and Ninpo Ninjas. Get rid of them.
- Once they're gone, make your way forward. Before going up the stairs, stock up at the Muramasa shop to your right. When you're done continue up the stairs.
- At the top of the stairs you'll encounter a new enemy, the Beastman. The Beastman is about as difficult as the Demon Spawn, and likewise cannot be launched into the air. Focus on ground combos, Flying Swallow and Ninpo attacks. Also, don't forget Obliteration Techniques, which render Ryu invincible during the animation. Beastmen are much more dangerous when wounded.
- Find a corpse next to a set of stairs leading down. Examine it to obtain a new weapon, the Kusari-gama.
- See the full Kusari-gama combo list below
- Now head back upstairs and go across the bridge to your left. Head down the stairs at the end and into a marketplace.
- Continue onward. Go down the pathway to your left, and save your game at the save point.
- Kick in the doorway to the left of the save point. Beastmen will attack you.
- TIP: You can try out your newly acquired Kusari-gama on the Beastmen if you wish. However, the Kusari-gama is slightly weak. It can be an excellent means of crowd control, but doesn't pack too much of a punch. We found it best to stick with the Dragon Sword when fighting Beastmen. Focus on one enemy at a time (this seems to lower the frantic nature of the battle), and as soon as they are wounded try and use an Obliteration Technique.
- Head towards the alleyway on your right, and kill the enemies that attack you.
- After they're finished off, head to your right. You'll find two walls close together. Wall jump up to the top area and encounter more Ninjas. The dead body here contains a Talisman of Rebirth. Get it.
- Head back down and go the opposite direction. You'll discover a chest containing Red Orbs.
- Now head back to the other area you have not yet explored. Go across the small bridge and find a corpse containing Spirit of the Devils. Use it.
- When you're ready head back over the small bridge and make a right. Bear right towards a huge fountain, and a new enemy, Water Demons.
- TIP: Use Izuna Drop nonstop on Water Demons. They are small, light enemies and shouldn't pose too much of a threat. Keep moving though, as they can be very fast.
- Get in the water and discover a chest containing the Gatling Spear Gun.
- Swim through the tunnel system until you see a new water enemy, mines. Kill them all with the Gatling Spear Gun.
- NOTE: The mines will not attack, but will explode on impact if you get too #close. Keep farming them for Yellow Orbs as much as possible.
- Find the Crystal Skull in the water in a corner.
- Achievement: Karma of the Warrior
- Swim underneath a bridge. Climb through into the boat through a window and save your game at the save point.
- Go up the stairs and enter the door. You'll encounter some more Demon Spawns. Kill them.
- From the door, head to your right and stock up at the Muramasa shop.
- From the shop head up the stairs you'll see a door that you can kick in. Enter the door and find a book entitled "Hinomaru's Notebook".
- Open up the chest for a bridge gate key .
- Go back out the door and turn left to get to the bridge. More Beastmen will attack. Eliminate them.
- Refill your arrows from the corpse on the left.
- Head down that hallway and encounter more Beastmen. Remember to keep moving and use Obliteration Techniques whenever possible on Beastmen.
- Keep going and open up the chest for more Red Orbs.
- Head to the right, back out into the open. You'll need to use the Fiend's Bane Bow to shoot the green crystals on either side of the bridge in order to lower a pole. #Use the pole to shimmy across to the other side. Drop down and open up the chest to receive a Life of the Gods.
- Get into the water and start swimming to the left through the lake area. You will need to kill a slew of mines using the Water Gatling Gun. There are quite a few mine enemies. Farm them all for Yellow Orbs.
- When the area is cleared, head swim towards the left rotating wheel, and jump up out on the water onto the small platform there.
- You'll need to jump up and grab onto one of the poles bisecting the waterwheel. Hold onto it and let it left you up to the top.
- When you get to the top, swing off to the wheel in front of you, and then wall-run to get onto the clock gear device coming out of the building on the left. Go into the building.
- There will be a rotating circular pole in front of you. Jump and grab onto it, and let it take you across the room.
- Drop down onto the platform and receive a Lives of a Thousand Gods.
- When ready, drop down to the bottom and leave the building through the door.
- When you leave the building you will encounter a group of Beastmen. When they're down, go up the stairs and save your game at the save point.
- Head straight through the entryway and into a battle with a group of Water Demons. #TIP: Because of their small size, they can be launched in the air for a quick kill.
- After all of them have been destroyed, a giant-sized Yellow Orb appears in the middle of the water ahead. Get it to receive huge payload of Yellow Orbs.
- Go through the entryway to the next area. A large crowd of Water Demons attacks. To avoid becoming overwhelmed, use Flying Swallow liberally.
- Find the chest in the room on the right containing Grains of Spiritual Life.
- Enter the room to the left and stock up at the Muramasa shop.
- Go back out, head straight down and encounter Demons Spawns and Water Demons. Destroy all of them and move on.
- Keep going forward, make a left and encounter more enemies.
- Once you're done with them, head back and go down the hallway on the left. Fight your way through the enemies.
- Enter the new room and find a chest with a Copper Key inside.
- Head back down the stairs, and on your right you'll find a cage. Use the COPPER KEY, enter the cage and interact with the corpse to get the Art of the Flame Phoenix Ninpo.
- Achievement: The Art of the Flame Phoenix.
- Head up the stairs and open the chest to receive some Red Orbs.
- Get onto one of the circle platforms. Jump up and use your sword to smash through it. You'll fall all the way down into some water. Swim around a bit and explore. #Save your game at the save point to the right.
- A group of Water Demons and Flying Demons will attack you. Eliminate the Flying Demons first, and then take out the Water Demons.
- Keep going forward and jump into the water ahead. Jump into the middle section of the water and swim down the hole. Keep going until you're back out into a new large open water cavern area.
- TIP: There are a large number Undead Fish in this area. If they attack you under water en-mass, use the Water Gatling Gun to quickly destroy them. If they attack you on land, break free of them and dart around using Flying Swallow to kill all of them. Luckily, the Undead Fish do very little damage. You can choose to ignore them entirely if you wish, though they can be a good source of Blue Orbs , which replenish your health.
- Dive under the water. Explore the underwater area, and find a chest on the right containing Red Orbs.
- NOTE: There are two chests here at the bottom on two different platforms at the bottom of the water (in the center). You hopefully already got the first one, but the second contains a "Devil Way Mushroom", depending on which one you got first.
- Keep swimming and you'll eventually find a staircase on the right side that leads you to a chest containing a huge Yellow Orb.
- Up on one of the ledges, you'll find a chest that contains a Skull Key.
- When you're ready, head to the center of the area and get onto the platform there. This will trigger a cutscene and boss battle.

Boss - Water Dragon
- TIP: The main strategy against the Water Dragon, is use the Water Run technique (tap A on the water), get in close right under the dragon, and attack it continuously. From a distance the Dragon will shoot spiky needles at you. But beware of its throw attack, in which it will grab you in its mouth and deal major damage. Keep running circles around it on the water, and hitting it with short X combos.
- TIP: You can also dive under the water, get up close to the Dragon's body and slash while under the water.
- NINPO: Use all Ninpos you have. The best way to use Ninpo against the Water Dragon is to get right under it, within pointblank range, and then unleash the Ninpo. This raises the amount of damage.
- The Dragon will also unleash a water shock wave attack. Try not to be near when it does. Additionally, the Dragon may spawn Undead Fish to attack you. If you can, ignore them entirely and focus on attacking the Dragon.
- When the Dragon takes enough damage, it will slump over and remain vulnerable. Move in close and finish him off with an Obliteration Technique (see video).
