The narrative unfolds in Kyoto, Japan, in 1878, a decade following the peak of the samurai era. With their identities and social standing diminished, and prohibited from carrying swords, the samurai face the challenges of adapting to a transformed society. As disparities in wealth grow and a lethal cholera epidemic takes hold, a glimmer of hope emerges: an invitation to join a tournament offering a staggering prize of 100 billion yen. A total of 292 warriors assemble at Tenryuji Temple, each receiving a wooden token and thrust into a fierce competition. To secure victory, they must seize their opponents' tokens and make their way to Tokyo to claim the enormous cash reward, with the grim stipulation that only one participant will emerge alive. As the contest commences, the warriors employ a variety of tactics: some shoot arrows from a distance, others navigate the turmoil with daggers, some swing heavy swords with force, while others depend on clever strategies. With so many combat styles in play, the race for survival escalates rapidly. Who will withstand the harrowing ordeal, and who orchestrates this enigmatic and deadly competition?
