After dealing with the other members, you'll face the final three: Corrupt Blade, Laughing Man, and Peacock. Head to the Nishinomiya Shrine, west of Amagasaki Castle. At the main entrance, you can choose to pursue them individually or confront all three at once for efficiency. Opting for the latter, proceed to the Harima region.

From the shrine, travel west to Kakogawa Estuary, then northeast following the roads to reach Takagi Otsuka Fort. Continue east to find the trio in a courtyard near a medium-sized hut. This battle will be challenging, but you'll have NPC allies to distract the enemies. Seize the moment to strike and eliminate all three, effectively clearing the Kabukimono threat.
