Complete walkthrough for Part 17 of Ninja Gaiden Black, covering Chapter 5: The Aqua Capital, including objectives, new enemies, and item locations.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Begin the mission and clear out the initial ninjas and Warlocks using Obliterations and Ultimates.
  2. 2
    Proceed to a Muramasa Statue to stock up if needed.
  3. 3
    Continue up the bridge and turn left down a stairway to find a dead body with the KUSARI-GAMA. Do not equip it yet.
  4. 4
    Across from the dead body, go down a small set of stairs to the canal. Use Water Run to reach the gondola on the far side to find CRYSTAL SKULL #10.
  5. 5
    As you return to dry land, new enemies, SILVER GAJA (gorgon-type snakes), will appear. Avoid water combat; fight them on dry land using Izuna Drop for instant kills.
  6. 6
    Head back to the small bridge to encounter LYCANTHROPE WEREWOLVES. Use hard combos and Ultimates to defeat them.
  7. 7
    In the Marketplace area, clear out more wolves using Wind Blades Ninpo and Obliterations. Approach the Save Statue in the alley.
  8. 8
    In the Outdoor Restaurant, werewolves will attack. Use hard combos and Ultimates for Obliteration.
  9. 9
    After clearing the restaurant, find CRYSTAL SKULL #11 on a table near the door you entered.
  10. 10
    Leaving the restaurant, more wolves will appear. Eliminate them and take the alleyway to the right to find a chest with an item. Continue down the main path.
  11. 11
    On Pantheon Path, another group of wolves will emerge from a bridge. Defeat them.
  12. 12
    Take the small bridge where the wolves emerged to find a dead body with the SPIRIT OF THE DEVILS item. Equip it for enhanced Ninpo attacks.
  13. 13
    Continue up the path towards a giant water fountain to encounter more Gaja. Use Izuna Drops for easy kills.
  14. 14
    To find the alternate route, dive into the water near the fountain and look for an open gap. A chest next to the gap contains the GATLING GUN sub-weapon. Swim to the other side of the canal.
  15. 15
    Emerge from the water but avoid running on it immediately due to EXPLODING JELLYFISH. Equip the Gatling Gun and shoot them down from a distance.
  16. 16
    Once the jellyfish are cleared, proceed to the next area. You will encounter more Gaja. To fight them effectively while on the water, get on a nearby gondola. Wait for the Gaja to approach and use Izuna Drop for an instant kill. Repeat this process using the boat.
Tips
  • When fighting Alexei, use the Divine Swallow attack to get close, then block, evade, and counter with hard combos. Maintain non-stop aggression and stay close to prevent him from creating distance and using unblockable attacks.
  • When fighting Silver Gaja, always seek dry surfaces and use the Izuna Drop for an instant kill.
  • When fighting Lycanthrope Werewolves, use hard combos followed by Ultimates.
  • When fighting Exploding Jellyfish, use the Gatling Gun from a safe distance to destroy them before they detonate.
  • When fighting Gaja on the water, use gondolas as a platform to safely execute Izuna Drops.
  • Kusari-Gama (New Weapon)
  • Crystal Skull #10
  • Crystal Skull #11
  • Spirit of the Devils (Item)
  • Gatling Gun (New Sub-Weapon)
