One of the most memorable fights goes down in the Hayabusa Ninja Village, but you will need to face-off against this fierce foe multiple times (and in multiple forms), including a vengeful spirit. Watch out for Doku\u2019s fierce grab move. If he gets a hold of you and hits you with his standing sword swing, it\u2019s game over in one move.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/ninja-gaiden-master-collection-brings-back-the-baddest-bosses-in-the-business.jpg\" alt=\"Ninja Gaiden Master Collection\" class=\"wp-image-152290\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n<h1><strong>Alma<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>The twin (sinister) sister of Rachel, Alma throws down with the best of them, offering one of the most memorable fiend battles in the franchise. Alma\u2019s incredible agility and dodging ability make her terribly tough to hit, and she can throw both fireballs at enemies and cast a beam of light that propels opponents back at her, leaving them prone to getting smashed back into the ground. When Alma reaches her awakened form, she looks to smack our favorite ninja down with her tail. Seems like a good time to break out the Flying Swallow Technique to take this boss out once and for all, but be careful, as according to long-time Ninja Gaiden fans, Alma might just be the toughest fiend in the entire franchise.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/ninja-gaiden-master-collection-brings-back-the-baddest-bosses-in-the-business-1.jpg\" alt=\"Ninja Gaiden Master Collection\" class=\"wp-image-152399\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n<h1><strong>Genshin<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>The Supreme Ninja Overlord, Genshin, is the antihero so cool, it\u2019s too bad you have to kill him.

Wielding the Blade of the Archfiend, Genshin\u2019s sword rivals that of Ryu\u2019s Dragon Sword, so gamers will need to wary of its deadly swipes.
