After inspecting the spoils of war, Lin Xun left the prison cell in the guise of the Ogiwara family's head.
Concerning the item named 'Straw Man of the Beginning of the Hour of the Ox', Lin Xun's subsequent task involves resisting the 'Extreme Delusional Evil Fruit' alongside the great general. Hence, he cannot use this item to weaken the general's strength.
Moreover, the item's effect isn't solely targeted at the great general. As long as the hair inside the straw man is replaced, it can affect other BOSSes as well.
After leaving the cell, he originally wanted to convert all the samurais of the castle tower into experience points and gear using his status as the head. However, just after stealthily killing a samurai, he received a prompt from the underworld game.
[All samurais of the castle tower belong to the 'Crimson Army' and are linked with your item 'Command Flag of the Ogiwara family'. Killing them will reduce the effect of the item. Please choose carefully!]
