Part 9

Follow this Nioh 3 walkthrough for Part 9 to discover hidden graves, collect valuable Kodama, and defeat challenging Samurai enemies. Includes detailed strategies and item locations.

Walkthrough:

1. Start by heading RIGHT into the shallow water. Be careful not to go too far, as you can drown. Follow the shore past a rock to find a GRAVE. Graves mark where other players have died.
2. Continue past the grave, or fight it if you wish. Kill the raider guarding a [_CORPSE_] who uses an axe. Beware of his two-swing attack.
3. Return to dry land and follow the path. You'll see a building on the right with a [_CORPSE_] nearby. Loot it.
4. Attack the man looking into the building. His ally will join him; use a heavy attack combo, retreat, dodge their attacks, and defeat them.
5. Go around the building, breaking pots for random items. Break the boxes behind the building for another [_CORPSE_].
6. Inside the building has been looted, but there's another [_CORPSE_] past it. To the LEFT, past the building, break a cart in a shed to find a [_WARRIOR KODAMA_]. Guide it back to the shrine.
7. Return to the path and head up. Note the [_CORPSE_] to the right. Kill the spear-user in the narrow area.
8. Continue to an open area. Below and to the left, kill the man checking out a [_CORPSE_] and loot it.
9. You have two choices: go STRAIGHT into the wooded area (up the slope) or right into the houses. Go right first. Note the [_CORPSE_] leaning against the wall.
10. Inside the first house on the right, kill the raider. There is a [_CHEST_] inside.
11. Ahead, you'll face two raiders at once. Focus on one at a time. You can destroy scarecrows for random items. Find another [_CORPSE_] by following the wall of the right house to the ledge.
12. Head up the incline. You'll find a STRONGER warrior (SAMURAI) and a patrolling raider. Intercept the raider away from the samurai if possible.
13. To defeat the Samurai, draw him to you, wait for his combo to end, then attack. Use GRAPPLE ability if you have it for a downed attack.
14. You can follow the incline to the MAYOR'S HOUSE or go around to the forest. Before heading to the forest, you can draw out a raider near the mayor's house opening by throwing a stone.
15. Head PAST the Fire Brazier and drop off the cliff to a small area below. Drop onto a roof from there for another [_CORPSE_].
16. Drop off the roof and head past the slope (left from the mansion) down the grassy path. You'll see graves, including a [_GRAVE_] to loot.
17. Past the grave, kill a patrolling raider and loot the [_CORPSE_]. Loot the [_GRAVE_] between the trees.
18. From here, head RIGHT, then IMMEDIATELY up the incline to the left. By the big tree, find a [_SWORDSMAN KODAMA_]. Guide it back to the shrine.
19. Go down the incline, continuing right. Loot the [_GRAVE_] and [_CORPSE_] to the left. Turn around and kill the bandit ahead.
20. In the rocky area where the bandit was, find more treasure. Up to the right on the cliff is a [_CORPSE_], and to the left is another [_CORPSE_]. Drop down past the second corpse to an area with yet another [_CORPSE_].
21. Head back to the grave between the trees. To the left are two corpses guarded by a spear-wielding Samurai and an archer above. Draw the Samurai out, being careful of arrows. Fighting near a tree can help.
22. Loot the [_CORPSE x2_] guarded by the Samurai, blocking arrows.
23. Head right and kill the archer. You may also need to kill a patrolling guard. Your reward is a [_CORPSE_] in the shed containing a
