Chapter 2: The Hayabusa Ninja Village
You can talk to Murai if you like, and he'll give you a couple pointers about fighting. Once you're done with that, exit the Ninja Fortress. Run all the way back the way you entered (the endless ninja room won't spawn any ninjas this time around), jump down the hole and back out to the canyon. But instead of running up along the left wall of the canyon, stay on the low path to the right. It eventually winds around to a small altar, where you'll receive the ninpo Art of the Fire Wheels. Go down the elevator.
Mountain Path
Run out and around the path. There's a ledge in front of you with a chest. Wall run along the left and leap off at the end of your run to reach the ledge. Open the chest for an Elixir of the Devil Way. Walk down toward the forest, where you'll be jumped by a trio of samurai. These enemies are much more adept at blocking than the ninjas from before. Mix in some more aerial attacks. Keep making your way down a path, until you slide down an incline. If you jump just before you reach the end you can vault over a series of tree branches. If you miss, you'll fall in a small pond.
It doesn't make much difference either way--you'll end up having to fight more samurai in a clearing, along with a fireball-throwing samurai who floats around and teleports. Sometimes he'll teleport next to you and attack with a pair of sai. Block this combo, then unleash your own quick combo to kill him. Go up the ladder of the watch tower and open the chest to receive a Map of Hayabusa Village. Keep running down the path and jump across the broken bridge into the river.
Pull yourself up on the opposite landing, and turn around to see a small alcove on the opposite bank, amidst the broken pilings. Get a running start, than tap A quickly to run across the surface of the water. Open the chest for a Life of the Gods. Go back across the river and jump up to find a save point. Save your game. Run up the stairs to enter Hayabusa Village.
Hayabusa Village
Make your way to the left, around a building and find a dead ninja. Search him for an Elixir of Spiritual Life. Go back to the gate, and notice the row of statues next to it. One of the statue heads is missing. Run up the right side to a small shack and example the large stone. After that you'll get attacked by more samurai. Kill them all, then make your way down the center of town. Just past another ninja body, you should find a statue head. Go back to the row of statues and place it back on its body to receive a Life of the Gods.
