Exiled as a child by his father Hidetsugu, young Hiroyuki has grown up training at his Uncle Jiro's secluded dojo, hoping one day to prove himself worthy enough to return home. Now caught at the center of a hostile takeover within his clan, Hiro is torn between loyalty and honor.
Hiro has to choose: side with his father and kill his friends and Uncle Jiro - the only real family he's ever had - or side with Uncle Jiro and attempt to face down the fearsome army under his father's control. It only takes one cut to kill, but what is one man against the Army of One-Thousand?
