I cleared Fort Ohira alongside the Straw Hat Ronins, discovering that the enemy was moving all supplies to their fleet. After surveying the fortified landing site from a cliff, Ryuzo's archers deployed explosive distractions, allowing us to slip through the burning camp and board a major vessel.
I had to defeat the Mongols in Fort Ohira while the straw hat Ronins were doing their part. And I started unleashing my skills there on those Mongols, drawing my katana quickly to execute swift stance changes and cut down the shields of the forces before they could overwhelm our front lines.
That moment when I was running towards the tower as there were Mongols beneath it and two Ronins were running behind me, it looked real awesome, capturing the perfect sense of cinematic momentum as we charged together.
After taking care of all the Mongols around the fort, Jin talked to Ryuzo and they made sure there were no food around this fort, just a stack of Mongol papers on a dead officer. And they realized the Mongols were taking everything into their boats that were in the bay, so they decided to infiltrate the boats.
After we reached the edge of the hill, I had to survey the Mongol landing site below without raising any alarm. Looking down at the shoreline, it looked like there were small boats and we could steal one and get to the big ones anchored further out.
Then I noticed there were too many barriers and archers, so a frontal attack would be suicide. Ryuzo wanted his men far away from the enemy's line, so they planned a strategy where Ryuzo's archers would distract the Mongols below while Jin and Ryuzo would steal the boat and row toward the big one.
After leading Ryuzo down the cliffs, he signaled his archers, and they started shooting the Mongols' landing zone with explosives, which seemed like great destruction, lighting up the entire beach with massive fireballs that completely shattered the enemy defenses.
When we were going down the boat through the landing zone, I noticed there were Mongols getting burned, and they were shivering in fear, completely broken by the sudden rain of fire that left their camp in absolute ruin.
On my way, I took care of some Mongols, though Ryuzo was asking me to leave them as it was not in our plan. I couldn't resist dropping some of them down quickly, ensuring no survivors were left closely to lookouts or alert the fleet.
Then we stole the boat, but I really didn't have to row it as they did it themselves while the screen was all black, and they at last reached one of the ships where Ryuzo climbed up real fast, leaving Jin behind. And now we had to search the ship for food.
