Thirty-one years ago, the world was consumed by darkness.

The Legion of Shadow, led by the ruthless Mugen, rose to power in a single sweeping conquest. Entire nations fell, and hope was extinguished. Only two brave souls dared to resist-but their rebellion ended in tragedy. Their names were forgotten by history... but their legacy was not.

Now, in the cold heart of the Legion's empire, three young warriors-Riku Hinoki, Hiroshi Hinoki, and Midori Himura-train to become elite Shinobi, believing they serve justice, peace, and order. But cracks begin to form in the illusion. Whispers of the past. Secrets buried in blood. And a question that refuses to stay silent:

What if the enemy... isn't who they were told it is?

As Riku begins to unravel the truth, he finds himself caught in a storm of deception, loyalty, and destiny. In a world where light and shadow blur, he must decide:

Who is truly just-and who is merely a villain wearing a crown?
