Josh heads to the Far East of Japan after hearing of new evidence of the whereabouts of the missing and mystical Honjo Masamune sword. A priceless treasure that had been passed down for generations, the Honjo, like all ceremonial swords, was required to be handed over to the Allies at the end of WWII. Rather than being taken out of Japan after WWII, new evidence suggests that the sword is actually still in Japan. Josh begins his quest for the missing Masamune in Tokyo, Japan at the Mejiro Police Station where the sword was supposedly surrendered. The patriarch of the Tokugawa family, the last official owners of the sword before the War, provides Josh with background on the sword and its status as an important symbol for Japan. After taking some time to explore the more unique offerings of Tokyo's Red Light District, Josh meets with a black market sword dealer. The dealer tells Josh of how every samurai sword, both sold officially and through the black market, are documented with certificates to validate their authenticity. So even if one finds a sword he believes to be the Masamune, without the proper documentation one cannot be sure. Josh next heads south to Kamakura, Japan where the Honjo Masamune was forged. He meets with one of Masamune's descendants, who allow Josh to help forge a new sword in his shop. Josh follows up on the dealer's lead and heads to Nagano, Japan where he meets Michael Gakuran, an urban explorer. They explore the former underground Imperial Headquarters in the Matushiro tunnels, where the Honjo may be buried. After their exploration fails to yield results, Josh decides to get into the mindset of the samurai and begins his own Samurai training. Josh's sensei sends Josh up the icy mountains of Nagano to the Mt Togakushi Shirne. Shrines are said to have great treasure stored and perhaps the Honjo may be there. But can Josh trek the snowy mountain to reach the hidden shrine? Will Josh's harsh hike yield the mythical Honzo sword?
