The legendary Kitsune’s Trickery Amulet in Assassin’s Creed Shadows will give you a health boost, and every single HP counts.

There are quite a few amulets available in Assassin’s Creed Shadows. They come with various perks, and they give you certain boosts depending on the armor and weapon you are using. The developers have added a total of 20 amulets in AC Shadows, and all of them are exclusive to Yasuke. The Kitsune’s Trickery Amulet is one of the 20; it gives you +1 Health per Mastery Point in the Samurai tree.
Additionally, players can get this legendary amulet by assassinating Takahashi Inoshichi during the Twisted Tree side quest. He is one of the seven samurai and the patriarch of the Takahashi Clan and holds the engraving you want.

Players will get the Twisted Tree questline from Ujimasa during the Inside Help quest in Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Ujimasa will tell you about the seven samurai, who are bothering the townsfolk, and will ask you to take them out. As discussed, Takahashi Inoshichi is the head of the clan you are after. So naturally, you will have to eliminate the first six samurai before you can take him down.
Similar to the other samurai, Ujimasa will give some hints and vague descriptions of Inoshichi. You can, of course, open your map and use your scouts to locate the suspected area. However, to make your playthrough easier, we will tell you the exact location of your target next.
Once the six samurai are dead, you will be able to find Takahashi Inoshichi in Yamashiro. More specifically, he will be in a housing complex west of the Honnoji Temple. You will be able to see his exact location in the image above. But if you are too far from it, you can always use the closest unlocked viewpoint to fast-travel to Yamashiro. After reaching the place, you will quickly realize that Takahashi Inoshichi is an important man and is surrounded by guards.

From this point, you can take out the target in any way you wish. You can sneak in and quietly take him down as Naoe or burst through the door and deliver his demise to his face as Yasuke. We can assure you that either way works, and the game does not restrict you in any way. Additionally, if you need some help with infiltrating the place or killing the patriarch, you can take a look at our Takahashi Inoshichi guide.
Lastly, once Takahashi Inoshichi is dead, you will get the legendary Kitsune’s Trickery Amulet as a reward.
