Chapter 16 - The Dark Dragon Blade
You're almost done! Save your game at the nearby save station. Jump and pull yourself up the platform to the left of the station. Turn to the right, and jump onto that platform. Jump up onto the next plateau, and then run into the little space where you can triangle jump up to the top. Do a few more jumps and climbs and you'll be right at the Dark Dragon Blade.
After you pull out the Dragon Blade, the place starts caving in, and you mustn't waste too much time. Jump across the gap to a tiny platform, then wall run up that sidewall. You'll see a set of three branches to your right. Vault across them, and off the last jump, you'll need to wall run to the left after you collide with the wall. Look to your left and find another branch to vault across.
Run around the left side of the ledge and then pull yourself up onto the next level. Wall run up the next wall, so you're hanging by your hands on the ledge. Mantle to the left until you can pull yourself up. Jump across the small gap, run up next two little walls and run until you reach a platform that appears to lead to no obvious jump. Look down. Drop carefully onto the platform below, then run forward, jump, and wall run up the next plateau, which looks almost too high to reach. Pull yourself up, then run across the thin strip of land to the left to reach Rachel.
Boss Fight: Vigoor Emperor
This is a disappointingly easy boss fight. All you have to do is pull out your sword and do the lunging, jump + Y slash back and forth on him, constantly. Once you land the first lunging slash, the Emperor won't be able to recover from it in time to block the next lunging slash, and the next... He's got a nasty throw maneuver, and another move where he teleports in the air and stabs down on you, but once you have a nice rhythm going with the jump + Y slash, this final boss fight is over in about 20 seconds or less. After all the hard work you did to get here, maybe Tecmo felt you deserved a break. Enjoy the ending! Be sure to watch all the way through the scrolling credits to see the final, cinematic denouement with Ryu at his village. And don't forget to save your game and play through on your successive save game!
