Unleashing Nature on the Invaders.

After executing stealth takedowns on the deck, I freed a caged bear and climbed a ladder to stay safe. By luring the inner Mongol guards outside, I triggered a chaotic clash between them and the beast, watched from high ground. Then I finished the bear with arrows, and discovered critical war plans before surviving a sudden ambush.

As I took down the last guard in a swift stealth assassination, the others on that deck didn't know about my presence there yet and I took that opportunity to take them down in stealth as well.

Then I noticed there were more guards in an inner part of the ship but I didn't go for him, leaving him completely unaware of the threat while I focused on a more chaotic method to clear out the remaining forces.

I opened the cage door of the wild bear instead and as I knew it'd come after me, I ran fast and climbed up to that ladder, pushing my character to move with absolute urgency before the massive predator could close the distance.

I stayed there up on the ladder that was out of reach of the bear and I saw the bear growling from a far as it was unable to attack me, swiping its large paws helplessly.

My plan was to lure the bear inside that inner part and let it take down all the soldiers inside, but it didn't go inside. So I decided to lure those Mongols out in the open. For that, I went inside and let one of the Mongols see me before running outside to lure them on chasing me.

There were a couple of Mongols inside who came out chasing me, and they got attacked by the bear as I planned. The wild animal turned its full fury onto the armored soldiers the moment they stepped onto the main deck, while I just stayed away from it.

When the bear was taking care of all the Mongols, I climbed up on the high ground of the ship from where I just enjoyed watching the bear taking all my enemies down, keeping myself completely out of the fray while the opposition was dismantled.

When I was sure that the bear took care of all the Mongols on that ship, I shot it down with arrows without giving it a chance to attack me, and then I climbed down.

Then I went inside the interior of the ship, and I found this scroll, but there was no sign of any food. And the scroll was about the Mongol war plans, where Khotun Khan ordered to send 1,000 men north to Toyotama region. This gave us crucial intelligence for our next strategic move.

When Jin was planning to get back to Ryuzo, there came some Mongols to ambush me, though I thought this ship was clear of any Mongols. And as they reached me, I had to take care of them, quickly drawing my katana to parry their sudden, aggressive opening strikes.
