The Takamatsu den is not KORYU, so the lineage of ninjutsu school can't be proven for Togakure school . Hatsumi and Takamatsu invent all the scrolls.. no other Budo master in japan believe in Takamatsu story and Hatsumi claim. Make research and you will not see the name of Takamatsu in chinese or japanese archives about death match or something like that.. they make those $ story to increase the popularity of the style they created.
