A Different Kind of Samurai was a virtual representation of one of Yasuke's genetic memories, relived through the Animus EGO.[1]
Description[edit | edit source]
Yasuke visits the Katano Foothills to find Junjiro.
Dialogue[edit | edit source]
(If Naoe first visits Junjiro) While exploring the Katano Foothills, Naoe heard noises coming from an elevated landform by the road.
- Junjiro: (grunts) You can do it. Just like Naoe.
Naoe went up and found Junjiro training with a bokken.
- Junjiro: Oh! I didn't hear you.
- Naoe: What are you doing?
- Junjiro: Nothing. Just, um, waiting for Yasuke. Let me know if you see him.
Naoe then left.

Later on, Yasuke came to meet Junjiro.
- Junjiro: Yasuke! Master Sorin sent me a letter from Kii! I want to go and visit him while he's on his pilgrimage.
- Yasuke: On your own?
- Junjiro: I have to grow up. Take care of myself. Can you show me some samurai moves? That's how swordsmen start out their training, isn't it?
- Yasuke: It is a bit more complex than that. But yes, if it pleases you. I will demonstrate.
Yasuke then got into position beside Junjiro.
- Yasuke: Observe slowly. I first learned kata by watching my own teacher, Master Kamiizumi.
- Junjiro: I'm watching!
Yasuke then begin the kata lesson.
- Yasuke: Pay attention to your balance, your movement. Let the blade serve as an extension of your will.
- Junjiro: Ohhh...
Having finished his lesson, Yasuke sheathed his sword.
- Junjiro: Your form is really good, Yasuke, sir!
- Yasuke: You do not have to be formal, Junjiro. We have talked about this.

From behind a large slab of stone, Naoe secretly listened in on the two men's conversation.
- Junjiro: But... you're a samurai! And you're teaching me! Master Sorin told me to always show respect.
- Yasuke: Master Sorin taught you much, it seems. But why do you want to study the sword? I have never seen this side of you.
- Junjiro: I have to. It's my duty.
- Yasuke: Is this about Naoe?

- Junjiro: Yes. And what she did at Katano. I'll never forget. The night we met you. The night we were surrounded by soldiers. I couldn't talk or move or anything. Like I was a statue. But Naoe stayed with me. She could've run, but she didn't. She protected me. And I want to do the same for her. For all my family.
- Yasuke: Is that how you see us, Junjiro? The allies?
- Junjiro: Well, yeah! I mean, Naoe is like my sister, Tomiko is more like my auntie, and you're like my f- (gasps)
- Yasuke: It is all right. How about we try the kata again? Together this time.
Naoe smiled upon hearing their conversation.
Outcome[edit | edit source]
Yasuke met Junjiro and taught him some basic kata lessons with the katana.
