"The Merchants were three greedy businessmen that illegal smuggled weapons and drugs, and sometimes sold slaves too. They were all killed by an Azuma ninja to end their evil line. They individually had no affiliation with anyone else, and were all independent salesmen, unlike the Echigoya family. They all carried matchlock pistols, but were slow in shooting it. All of them kept their evil in secret, and appeared to be honest and reliable salesmen."@en .
