The quest

You'll need to meet with Kyonyo at the east of the Amagasaki Castle by the river. The quest entrance will feel like a glitched-out area. From there, your first objective will be to take out all the snipers. Use stealth or combat to assassinate or defeat all seven of them.

After that, you'll have to assassinate Wada Koretake. If you dispatch all of his bodyguards and vanish from his line of sight for long enough, you can create an opportunity to sneak up on him. Otherwise, you'll need to take him down in combat.

After killing Koretake, Naoe will have to make a choice on whether to spare a prisoner or not. Whatever decision you make, the ending cutscene will be the same, and it won't have any effect on the quest's conclusion or its rewards.

The cinematic will mark the conclusion of the story mission, following which you'll receive the quest rewards, including the Death Whisperer Kusarigama in Assassin's Creed Shadows.
