The Iga ninjas and their family members were taken away by the soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies as soon as they had left customs.
All the adult males were taken to Long Beach, whereas the old, weak, sick, and disabled were all placed in a manor in the suburbs.
Hanzo and his clan were taken to the villa rented by Porter in Long Beach where he met up with his son, Kazuo.
As soon as the father and son met, they naturally sighed emotionally and burst into tears.
Hanzo said regretfully, “Kazuo... If I would have known that this trip to the United States would have turned out to be so bad, I wouldn't have sent you..."
Having said this, Hanzo sighed and said," Now, hundreds of people have been reduced to the point of leaving their homes, and there is no telling when they would be able to go back...”
"Go back?" Kazuo smiled wryly and said, “ Dad, we will never be able to go back to Japan in our lifetime."
Hanzo asked in surprise, "Why?”
Kazuo asked him, "You haven't received the news yet, have you?"
Hanzo asked in surprise, "Did something happen?"
Kazuo nodded and said with a pained expression and tone, "Our Iga County Castle is in ruins..." "What?!" Hanzo was stunned when he heard this, and he blurted out, "We just left Iga County Castle not long ago, and everything was fine when we left. So, how could it be in ruins?”
When Kazuo saw that his father knew nothing about what had happened in Japan, he quickly told Hanzo all the news that he had received.
Upon hearing this, everything went completely dark before Hanzo's eyes, and he almost fell over.
