Features: Unrestrained, Visionary, Great Commander Who Opened the Way for the Unification of Japan. A young lord known as the "Fushimi Fool," he defeated 40,000 with 4,000 at the Battle of Tochio, gaining fame and making no one dare to challenge his might. With the ambition of "Conquering the World," there was no fortress he could not conquer. Seeking a life of freedom, there was no danger he dared not face alone. Tragically, his colorful life ended in the "Honnō-ji Incident." Born as a genius child in the ancient city of Fushimi, he had great ambitions and extraordinary talent from a young age. He dared to defy conventional norms and act eccentrically, earning the nickname "Fushimi Fool" from ordinary people as if he lacked the wisdom to take on great responsibilities.
When Nobunaga first entered the historical stage, he had only the title of lord and a small territory, facing countless internal and external troubles. In such a severe situation, Nobunaga remained calm under pressure, full of ingenuity, suppressing internal unrest, ambushing powerful enemies, and gaining fame across the land. He seized the rare opportunity to reinstall the shogun Ashikaga Yoshiteru, controlled the Kyoto region, and embarked on the journey of "Conquering the World." He defeated the powerful figures like Ashikaga, Asai, and Takeda, becoming the first hero in enemy territory with the potential to unify the entire land. Although he died near the finish line due to rebellion, the cause he started did not stop. In the end, the beloved general he personally nurtured, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, completed the unfinished dream.
