The Dragon Sword (龍剣) is a Melee Weapon in Ninja Gaiden 3 and Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge.

The Story[]

As Ryu Hayabusa battles the Regent of the Mask in London, the mysterious man casts an old slavic curse by the name of the "Grip of Murder" to dissolve the Dragon Sword and then seal it within the ninja's right arm, together with all the malice it had encapsulated from the vengeful hatred of the lives it had cut down. (Day 1)

After Ryu, equipped with his newly acquired lock-on Bow received from Mizuki McCloud, fights off a gang of LOA's Sandmobile Soldiers in the deserted city of Rub'al Khali in Saudi Arabia, Ayane appears to lend him the Mugen Tenshin clan master Hayate's Jiran-Maru (迅嵐丸, Swift Storm) katana, as instructed by her half-brother. (Day 2)

Upon Ryu escaping from the LOA Biolab alongside Mizuki and Canna, the group is apprehended by the US Army and brought to the USS William Harrison naval vessel, where Captain Heinlein informs them of Ishigami's disappearance: while Mizuki heads back to the JSDF to regroup, Ryu sets out for Hayabusa village, hoping to understand the secrets of the curse from his father Joe, but first he visits the Black Spider Clan graveyard on Mount Fuji to borrow his fallen rival lord of the dark ninja Genshin's Blade of the Archfiend (邪神剣) katana. (Day 5)

Awakened from his dream of Genshin handing down his sword to him, after the destruction of the Black Narwhal, Ryu is ready to face the Goddess with the unsealed power of The Archfiend's evil magic sparking along the length of his Blade. However, as the sword clashes with her purified Dragon Blade, both shatter, and Ryu is finally able to regain his own weapon and immediately fits the Eye of Dragon in the hilt to unleash its True spiritual power to cut down the monstrosity and save Canna. (Day 8)
