"Whispers of the Blade" is an immersive manga that invites readers into the world of Akio, a wandering ronin on a quest for redemption in feudal Japan. Through the intimate lens of first-person narration, experience the weight of Akio's past sins and the haunting whispers of his katana, "Kage no Ken," guiding him along a path of atonement.

As the mist-clad landscapes unfold, readers witness the chance encounter between Akio and Hana, a spirited young woman with a shared sense of purpose. The narrative weaves a tale of their intertwined destinies, drawing them into the shadow of Master Takeshi, a wise sensei holding the secrets of an ancient martial art. Under his guidance, Akio hones his skills and forges a deepening bond with Hana.

Against the backdrop of cherry blossoms and moonlit oaths, the story takes a decisive turn as Akio and Hana pledge their swords to Lady Satsuki, a noblewoman leading a covert resistance against the tyrannical Lord Kurogane. The manga builds to a crescendo with a duel at dawn, where Akio confronts Lord Kurogane in a battle that echoes with the clash of steel, shaping the destiny of a land gripped by shadows.

"Whispers of the Blade" explores themes of redemption, honor, and resilience, offering readers an intimate view into the internal struggles of a ronin seeking purpose in a world marred by conflict. With each turn of the page, the manga unfolds a captivating narrative that resonates with the echoes of those who have walked the path of the blade before.

(discontinued) In the Shinobi World, a scarce amount of humans believe in the existence of yōkai. Hatake Kakashi is not one of them. However, he isn't exactly the type to bluntly state that they don't exist. After all, a world wherein peace is not a word that can easily be understood is a world with a whole lot more mysteries and therefore, also cannot be understood. During a mission in the Land of Iron, Kakashi, Obito, Rin and Minato find themselves crossing paths with a girl no more than two years younger than the three children. Unexpectedly, the bizarre and cruel weather hasn't killed her yet. It is no surprise that this young girl named Setsuko arrives in The Village Hidden in the Leaves with Team Minato and surprises even the Third Hokage with her long black hair, dark blue eyes, a ghostly white-- almost transparent complexion and a kimono of the same color as snow. Of course, no one really believes that Setsuko could actually be what she could be suspected of being: A Yuki-musume. But in a world where mysteries are meant to be kept, how can anyone say that the ethereal races of the yōkai are non-existent? As Rin, Obito and Kakashi teach her about everything there is to know about living in the village, the silver-haired young boy finds himself intrigued by basically everything relating to Setsuko. Although, with all of the fear Setsuko has always bottled up inside of her, it would sound much easier to befriend her than to actually be able to do it.

"Did you only take care of me to repay him?" She whispered with a disheartened undertone. "At first I did, b-but I grew to love you as my niece, but more importantly, as my daughter. I love you like you're my own daughter." Her midnight locks flew away from her in the gentle breeze that lit the surrounding area. "W-what was his name? What was f-father's name?" Silence. "Itachi.
