Yoshimune Tokugawa serves as the 8th Shogun of the Tokugawa Shogunate. He faces ongoing issues with troublemakers causing chaos in Megumi, his city. To investigate these matters firsthand, Lord Tokugawa disguises himself as Tokuda Shinnosuke, an ordinary resident of Megumi, with the help of his trusted companions. Known as Shin-san to the locals, he collaborates with oniwaban (ninjas) and the leader of the Megumi fire brigade. Yoshimune utilizes the fire brigade headquarters as his temporary residence outside of Himeji Castle. While the fire brigade leader and oniwaban are aware of his true identity, the rest of the city remains oblivious to his status as the Shogun. Upon resolving the criminal activities, Yoshimune confronts the culprits, who often draw their samurai swords in an attempt to harm him without realizing his true identity. In most situations, Yoshimune skillfully handles the situation without causing serious harm, opting to use the blunt side of his sword. Only in extreme cases does he resort to using the sharp edge of his blade, demonstrating the severity of the circumstances.

In 1906, towards the end of the Meiji era, the government decided to allow the pollutants from the Ashio Copper Mine to be dumped into the pond in Yanaka Village, located downstream of the Watarase River in Tochigi Prefecture. This was done to protect the operations of the mine, but unfortunately, it led to contamination of the fields in the village. Nitta Sachi, the daughter of a poor farming family in Yanaka Village, was approached by politician Tanaka Shozo through her older brother Nobuyoshi. Sachi was asked to go to Tokyo to work as a housekeeper for female social activist Fukuda Hideko, who was in charge of the magazine "Women of the World." With the help of Nobuyoshi, Sachi met Kusakabe Jotaro, who claimed to be a government official. He escorted her to Tokyo and instructed her to observe and report on activities in the Fukuda household. Various social activists like Kotoko Shusui and Osugi Sakae were frequent visitors at the Fukuda residence. Sachi worked diligently, but she felt inadequate for not being able to read like the other intellectuals in the house. Meanwhile, there was a strike by the laborers at the Ashio Copper Mine. This led to social activists like Ishikawa Sanshiro advocating for a wage increase and attempting to incite rebellion against the government. However, the authorities cracked down on the activists, including Ishikawa, who was arrested. Feeling guilty for his arrest, Sachi fled from the Fukuda household and returned to Yanaka Village, only to find her home destroyed due to the government's forced seizure. To her dismay, her brother Nobuyoshi was at the center of this unfortunate event.

Legend has it that a thousand years ago, Baijia Town was a remote mountain village. The village was said to be home to a ferocious monster known as the Nian Beast. One day, a storyteller mentioned the Nian Beast in the presence of the little Nian Beast and the Demon Hunter. The Nian Beast became enraged upon hearing that they were being accused of eating children, insisting that they only feasted on chestnut cakes. In a fit of anger, the Nian Beast stirred up a strong wind. To calm the situation, the Demon Hunter quickly claimed that the Nian Beast was his cousin. Unfortunately, a child set off firecrackers, revealing the Nian Beast's horns and forcing them to flee. The Nian Beast felt saddened by the legend, wishing to be accepted rather than feared. Luckily, the Demon Hunter possessed a Book of Retrospection, allowing them to travel back to the first New Year in history to uncover how the Nian Beast's reputation was tarnished.
