This article will guide you through the objective ‘Gather Intel From Merchant Kanta‘ for the side quest “The Iron Hand Guild” side mission in Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
Starting Location
‘The Iron Hand Guild‘ side quest can be initiated by speaking with an NPC Imai Sokun in the Sakai area of Izumi Settsu. You can find him just north of the Sakai Firearm District. It will be marked with a “!” icon on the map.

Iron Hand Guild Member 4: Merchant Kanta
To find Merchant Kanta, the player first needs to inspect the missing ship. To find the missing ship, go to the central part of Lake Biwa in the in-game map. There, you’ll see a small island called Okishima. Refer to the location marked on the map below.
Once you are on the island, send your scouts to search for the ship. They should be able to find the shipwreck on the west side of the island.
Go to where the ship is and defeat the enemies nearby. Pick up the small note “Shipping Manifest” on the ship. This note will give you a clue that leads to Merchant Kanta.
Now, with the information, players can find Merchant Kanta, who can be found at Rice Shipyard near Otsu Upper District in the Mouth of Seta in OMI. Eliminate him to loot “Letter regarding Otsu Port”.
