Book
The Naruto Scroll
First published 2026
With the missing spy’s testimony recovered, Gennojō and Otsuna race from Mount Tsurugi while Awa’s agents prepare the final stage of their rebellion. Allies, betrayers and surviving pursuers converge at the Naruto Strait, where the whirlpools become the setting for the last chase.
The conclusion resolves both the political conspiracy and the personal searches that have driven the six volumes. The struggle is no longer merely to possess the scrolls, but to expose the plot before its signal can draw other lords into open action against the Tokugawa shogunate.
