You have the option to confront them individually or together. For efficiency, choose the latter and travel to Harima. From the shrine, head west to Kakogawa Estuary, then ride northeast along the roads to reach Takagi Otsuka Fort. Continue east to find the group in a courtyard next to a medium-sized hut. This battle will be challenging, but you can use NPCs to your advantage. Eliminate them all to permanently end the Kabukimono's menace.
