| The common people are suffering as the price of rice hits an unusual high in Edo. This is when Kumokiri Nizaemon (Nakai Kiichi), the greatest bandit of all time, meets Tenichibo (Nagayama Kento) who calls himself the illegitimate son of the shogun Tokugawa Yoshimune. Nizaemon learns that a major wholesale rice merchant (Issey Ogata) is trying to put Tenichibo up as the next shogun and there is a member of shogun’s council of elders behind him. So he targets to steal from the two of them. Meanwhile, Abe Shikibu (Kunimura Jun), the chief of the public security force called the Hitsuke Tozoku Aratamekata, gets to the truth of Tenichibo’s case through his own investigation, and also finds out about Nizaemon’s plan. This triggers a battle between the Kumokiri gang of thieves and the Hitsuke Tozoku Aratamekata. |
