In ancient China, five centuries before unification, war orphan Shin dreams of becoming a Great General of the Heavens. Alongside his fellow servant Hyou, he trains with a wooden sword every day, refusing to accept a life of slavery. When Hyou is summoned to the palace and vanishes, he returns gravely wounded, entrusting Shin with a single map. Following it, Shin meets a boy who is his mirror image: Ei Sei, the young king of Qin. The Tezuka Award-winning epic of the Warring States begins here.
