The Blood Rain Bow can only be obtained by defeating Nagano Saemon as part of the Nobutsuna's Students side quest. Nobutsuna Sensei will be accessible to Yasuke during "An Education" main quest. Following this, if players talk to him a second time, they will unlock the side quest Nobutsuna's Students.

Saemon can be found in the northwestern region of Sotomo Gate in Sotomo Cove, Wakasa. It will be on the northwestern side of the world map. Upon reaching the objective marker, you'll find a trail of dead bodies. Follow it to reach your target.

Do note that there are times when you might not find the student at the mentioned locations. In such a case, it is better to use your scouts to locate them.

In this fight, you'll need to defeat Saemon with the bow that'll be given to you. Thankfully, the weapon is potent in its damage. The main challenge you'll face here is trying to hit Saemon, he'll jump around the arena and use smoke bombs to distract you. Use the cover provided and just focus on hitting your shots. Saemon will fall soon enough.

Killing him will reward you with the Blood Rain Bow in Assassin's Creed Shadows.
