Upon reaching the power plant, they discover that a group of seven rogue swordsmen have attacked the plant, and they possess the seven legendary swords that were once held by the previous Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. Chojuro learns that the group is led by a woman named Mangetsu, who claims to be the brother of former swordsmen Suigetsu Hozuki.
