In a world where the ancient art of ninjutsu has quietly persisted into the modern age, shadowy clans still operate beyond the reach of ordinary society. Ittoki Sakuraba lived a completely unremarkable life as a high school student — until a shocking revelation turns everything he thought he knew upside down. He discovers that he is the 19th successor to the legendary Iga ninja clan, a lineage steeped in history and bound by duty. With this newfound identity comes an immediate and very real danger, as the rival Koga clan sets their sights on him. To face what lies ahead, Ittoki enrolls in Kokuten Ninja Academy, an elite high school where students from various ninja villages train together using a blend of centuries-old techniques and cutting-edge technology. For Ittoki, who has never thrown a shuriken in his life, the path to becoming a shinobi worthy of his bloodline is only just beginning.
