	During the first years of her life, Nagato and Tsuyu raised their daughter together and largely abandoned their Assassin duties to focus on their new responsibility as parents. As a result, they were caught off-guard when Hanzō one day returned with news that the Imperial Regalia's location had been compromised. While Nagato stayed in Iga with Naoe, Tsuyu summoned all Assassins in Japan to protect the regalia from a mysterious group called the [[Shinbakufu]]; however, they failed, and most Assassins were killed as a result.<ref name="Meaning of the Blade"/>		During the first years of her life, Nagato and Tsuyu raised their daughter together and largely abandoned their Assassin duties to focus on their new responsibility as parents.

	Tsuyu, who had managed to survive the onslaught and protect the regalia's jewel ''{{Wiki\|Magatama\|Yasakani no Magatama}}'' discreetly returned to Nagato and entrusted him with the artifact so he could keep it safe while she searched for the other regalia. Nagato went on to hide the Jewel in the [[Mihata Kofun]] and waited for his wife to come back, but she never did.
