In 2030, Japan.
A virus has infected humans throughout the world.
Infected people turn into different forms of monsters based on their ages, sexes and races.
The virus is named 'Gibia' - after being rich in variety like gibia.
Just then, a pair of samurai and ninja appeared in such a blighted wasteland of Japan.
They both traveled from the early Edo period, fighting together with help from a doctor who tries to find cure for Gibia.
Facing ceaseless attacks from Gibias, and outlaws that attack travelers for food, they start the dangerous journey with enemies all around.

They see a man who transforms into a monster before their eyes and then attacks them. They are saved by Kathleen Funada and the old man Maeda who take them to a compound of surviving humans.

Maeda is captured and wounded by a Gibia but he is rescued by Sensui who then attacks the Gibia with the sword, slicing them to pieces. More Gibia break through the defences and begin to attack the people. Kenroku joins the battle, initially using wire as his weapon before discovering the effectiveness of hand grenades.

Following the Gibia attack, the seven survivors plan to move to the Niigata area and board a boat to mainland Asia. Dr. Yoshinaga leads an expedition to collect his Gibia vaccine research, but when they reach the helicopter on the rooftop they see an unconscious man on another roof. Yoshinaga pilots the helicopter to investigate, but a huge female Gibia known as Meteora releases supersonic waves destabilizing the helicopter, then shoots out appendages from its mouth and grabs onto it. Kenroku and Sensui try to free the helicopter but fail, so Sensui attacks the monster with his sword. Meanwhile, the unconscious man, a huge monk named Yukinojyo Onikura recovers and helps the rest of the team leap to safety, however the soldier Brian is injured by Meteora. Sensui is unable to kill Meteora, but Kenroku crashes the helicopter into it before leaping to safety. Later, while Yoshinaga is treating Brian's injury, the soldier transforms into a Gibia.

They suddenly come under attack by lizard-like Gibia, but after fighting their way outside, they find more waiting for them on the ground and others flying in the air. Sensui, Kenroku and Yukinojyo cut a path through the monsters. The six survivors manage to escape in a camper van, however Sensui is exhausted. As talk turns to the past, Kenroku recalls when he first met Sensui during the Battle of Sekigahara when they were on opposing sides, however, due to the vagaries of war they were both exiled together. Back in the present, the group's van blows a tire, the noise attracting the attention of nearby Gibia which advance toward the stricken vehicle.

Kenroku and Yukinojyo fight off the flying the Gibia while other monsters advance towards the stricken van. Suddenly, Adam, with the knowledge that his infected wound will turn him into a Gibia, walks towards them and sets off a massive C-4 explosion, killing himself and the monsters. As the survivors escape, Yukinojyo is embarrassed by the taunts of Kenroku about never knowing a woman and his suggestion that the monk marry Yurika. This causes Yukinojyo to think back to the time when he was involved in the Ishiyama Hongan-ji War and the lonely death of his master, Douzan, just before he was spirited into the future. When the group stops for a break at a gas station, Kathleen is captured by a band of escaped convicts who call themselves the Galients. Their leader, Renjiro Hatonami, challenges Sensui to a duel, but Sensui easily disarms him and the Galients decide to withdraw. Later, Yoshinaga slowly drives the van into a dark tunnel, but they find it blocked with broken vehicles and infested with Gibia.

Ayame agrees while the scene is watched from a distance by Hatonami's band, the Galients. Kathleen's group reach an onsen and relax for a while, where Sensui recalls the death of his parents and destruction of the Kanzaki clan, his adoption and training by Halbert before he died from an illness. It was the time when the Shimazu clan invaded Kuushuu to attack the Outomo clan. Outomo was aided by Sensui's later master, Jouzen Matsumoto, from whom he received his katana, Suigetsumaru.
