Starting Location: The New Lord
First, you must have finished Bounty: Shiro the Swindler in Ishikari Plain. Then go to Oshima Coast > Matsumae Residences Bounty Board, grab the “Wayward Oni Raiders” bounty. As part of the bounty objectives you will trigger The New Lord tale. This tale is special in that it automatically completes along with the bounty, and you don’t get a popup of the tale poster during gameplay. The tale name actually only shows at the end when completing the tale and getting the reward, so behaves differently from the regular side tales. If you’ve already done all bounties you’ll have completed this.
Travel to Lord Kato’s Estate
After accepting the bounty, open the map and track it from there. Then a yellow objective marker will appear in Matsumae Residences. Follow the wind to the objective, on the southern end of the town. Once you arrive, a man in front of the estate will tell you that Lord Kato isn’t there right now. Talk to that man, then one of the servants will come to tell you the Oni Raiders have been spotted nearby.
Look for the Oni Raiders
Head to the enxt objective marker in the north at the Oshima Coast Entrance, it will be marked on the map for you. You can fast travel there. From where you arrive after fast travel, turn around and follow the road north to the yellow objective marker. In front of a locked gate will be a group of Oni Raiders, defeat them all. The bounty poster will get crossed out afterward, though it doesn’t count as complete until you finish the rest of the side tale too.
Travel back to Lord Kato’s Estate
Fast travel back to Lord Kato’s estate where you talked to the NPC. Now you can talk to the guy in blue robes standing at the front gate where the objective marker is on the map.
Afterward enter the door to the building behind the guy in blue robes.
You’ll meet Shiro there, who was a bounty target in Ishikari Coast but ran away from us. Here you meet him again. He swears he isn’t trying to swindle people this time. This is where the side tale properly starts, though you won’t get a popup of it on-screen.
Ride with Shiro
After the talk with Shiro, get on your horse and follow him. He leads you to a beach where more raiders are found.
Defeat the Raiders at the beach
Clear out the raiders at the beach. After the first wave, more will come riding on horses. Shiro will provide some fire support from a safe distance. Afterward you get a cutscene with Shiro and “The New Lord” appears as completed on-screen, along with 750 coins reward money.
