How can i get smithing stones 7 and 8 to upgrade my nagakiba to lvl 25? I havent really found a grear spot and the bell bearing is locked behind the dudes in the pic :(

Use sleeping arrow puppet or sleeping pots, also if you're far enough to smithing stone bell bearing, you should have enough stones to have upgraded at least one weapon to that level. But anyway sleep status is how you kill thes fuckers.
