Finding more freedom on the high seas than in war-torn Japan, the 'Bahansen' (Pirate ships) based on the Seto Inland Sea during the Warring Period (Sengoku-jidai)sailed to China, Korea, Luzon, and Siam under the Hachiman banner. A battle for supremacy of the seas begins when a strange old shipwreck survivor is brought to Sakai where he divulges a secret that can change the course of history.One of the most literate and well-written films from Toei, this is an exciting tale of swashbuckling samurai on the high seas!

Five swordsmen are murdered and hung from a tree and the chase is on to find the killers. Two magistrates pursue the leads to solve the crime and it leads to a potential conspiracy to kill the Shogun.

Some of the finest jidai-geki actors appear in this exciting and entertaining tale of intrigue and action in old Japan. Teaming up the ever-popular Misora Hibari with the greatest samurai action hero of all-time Wakayama Tomisaburo is a brilliant stoke of casting. Hibari takes on the role of Mori no Ishimatsu, a young man who gets involved with real-life Yakuza legend, Shimizu no Jirocho, 'Boss of the Tokaido'. Ishimatsu manages to interfere with a dispute between the Shimizu and their competition, the Marugame family, even going so far as to become an avenger's assistant. It's not the first time Hibari has played a man in a film (also in Benten Kozo), and her acting skills are at their best as she mixes in a bit of humor along with excellent swordplay. Wakayama Tomisaburo, as always, gives an outstanding performance as the powerful and beloved Yakuza Boss Jirocho.

Based on a book by Ozaki Koyo about a yakuza's honor, duty and loyalty. Hishakaku asks his woman, Otoyo, a former geisha, to move to Tokyo, where they are taken in by Boss Kokin. Due to his obligation to Kokin, he is involved with a gang war and is arrested. When he is released from jail, everything has changed and Otoyo unwittingly causes him the greatest heartache a man could know.

新選組大事记 至于影片内容观者见仁见智好了 文久三年（1863年），新選組成立，当时局长为芹泽鸭。不久，以土方岁三、近藤勇等天然理心流剑士为中心的新選組骨干，以肃清组内败类为由，斩杀芹泽鸭，迫使新见锦切腹，并由近藤勇出任新選組局长，土方岁三出任副长。然后一番队队长为冲田总司、三番队队长为斋藤一。可以看出，新選組的中心力量都是天然理心流剑士。 元治元年（1864年）六月五日，长州藩维新志士在京都池田屋秘密集会。因为消息泄露，池田屋遭新選組袭击，除桂小五郎（即维新三杰之一的木户孝允）因故未到会外，大部分长州藩志士高层人物或被斩杀，或被捕。这就是震惊日本的“池田屋事件”。新選組一战成名。由于新選組本处地处京都壬生地区，因此被人们称为“壬生狼”。 庆应二年（1866年），在坂本龙马的努力下，历来相互仇视的萨摩藩跟长州藩同盟，维新力量日趋壮大。 庆应四年（1868）年，戊辰战争爆发。在维新军队的攻击下，幕府军节节溃败。四月，德川幕府末代将军德川庆喜将政权交还天皇。 戊辰战争后，新選組残部在土方岁三的带领下，向东北投奔会津藩，与其他佐幕军队一起，继续抵抗维新政府。但是，由于会津若松城战役的失败，新選組残部只得继续向北逃奔至北海道函馆。 明治二年（1869年），箱馆战争爆发。岁三独自骑马举刀突入敌阵，被步枪子弹贯穿胸部，战死。新選組正式结束。
