The documentary Sword Saint tells the legend of the Fire Scroll. After the Battle of Twelve Swords, Kensei's first trial would be to retrieve the Scroll from the protection of ninety angry ronin. Tatsuya Atsumi explains that the Scroll "is said to have contained many of Whitebeard's strategies and secrets including clues to the location of his secret camp known as the Hidden Fortress." Some believe that Whitebeard even bargained with oni (or devils) to keep the scroll safe within a circle of flame, though the name more likely came from Whitebeard's practice of torturing spies and traitors by burning them alive. Ultimately, Kensei obtained the Scroll from the ronin; the information contained in the Scroll led Kensei to his next two trials: climbing the frozen waterfall, and then finding the single crimson peony.
