Unveil Hidden Treasures: Master Assassin's Creed Shadows' 'Silver and Teppo' Quest!

In the northern region of Tamba within “Assassin’s Creed Shadows,” characters Naoe and Yasuke will run across Hosokawa Fujitaka and his “Silver and Teppo” side mission. Similar to numerous side quests in “Shadows,” the “Silver and Teppo” mission revolves around a circle of criminal targets. These particular targets are referred to as “Silver Smugglers.” After Oda Nobunaga’s demise, these outlaws have made their way into the region, and it falls on Naoe and Yasuke to eliminate them and restore tranquility to Japan’s northern territories. In this walkthrough, we will show you the locations of all “Silver Smugglers” in “AC Shadows” and uncover the rewards you’ll receive for successfully completing these tasks.

All Silver Smuggler Locations in AC Shadows

How to Start Silver Smugglers in AC Shadows:

The “Silver Smugglers” side quest can be located to the south of Miyauzu Bay, which is situated in the northwestern part of the map. This area becomes accessible when you progress to roughly the lower thirties on your journey.

All Silver Smuggler Targets:

Target Name	Target Location	Rewards	Map image
The Interrogator	Cave south of Onitake Shrine in Miyazu Bay, Tamba. When you arrive at Onitake Shrine to meet with your contact, they will be dead. Follow the trail of blood up the stairs, and you’ll find a cave entrance at the top. The Interrogator is deep within the cave, with a few other bandits. Killing him will reveal the location of the Teppo Merchant, and the existence of The Slaver.	Silver Ace Epic Katana, Damage with Ability Engraving, Spy Warning Quest Item, 270 Mon
The Teppo Merchant	The Teppo Merchant is in a courtyard in the southwestern corner of the Fukuchiyama Castle grounds. The castle is located in the Fukuchiyama province of Tamba.	The Trading Seal Epic Teppo, Business Proposal Quest Item, 225 Mon
The Slaver	The Slaver is located on a ship off the northern coast of Sotomo Gate, Wakasa. The quest will send you to a small warehouse in the Tsuruga Sea Port, but you’ll only find a letter there. You should be able to go straight to the European-style ship just off the coast.	Nanban’s Curse Epic Teppo, Critical Chance with Ability Engraving, Invitation to Genbao Fort Quest Item, 235 Mon
The Teppo Smuggler	You’ll find The Teppo Smuggler in the center of Yakami Fort, in the Yakami province of Tamba. He is pretty easy to find as he is holding a meeting on a platform with bandit flags all around.

The Silver Trader	The Silver Trader is located in the southwest corner of Genbao Fort. The fort is located in the Mount Unchinakao province, right in the center of Wakasa. This is another enemy that is essentially standing out in the open in a ‘castle-type’ POI.	Woe’s Fog Legendary Kanobo, Buildup on Block Legendary Engraving, 310 Mon
Mai, The Smuggler Leader	Mai is located in Mai’s Mansion, just north of Himeji Castle in Himeji, Harima. The first task will take you to a brewery on the southern side of the castle, but if you head straight to the mansion, you’ll find Mai there. Make sure to read her letter to reveal the final target.

Yoshisada	After killing Mai, you are prompted to return to Lord Fujitaka. He is reluctant to believe Yoshisada is stealing from him. He asks you to get proof, and then the scene ends. However, if you picked up the letter that Mai was writing, you can immediately hand it to Fujitaka, ending the quest. It seems that Yoshisada is then marked as killed, and the quest ends. We are not sure if this is implying that Fujitaka kills him, or if it is a bug.	N/A	N/A
