Life as a protector
By 1582, Hozoin served as a retainer to a local daimyō in Yamato. However, when frequent bandit attacks became a serious issue, he was told to stand down and leave the people to them. In response, Hozoin decided to train the locals so they could fight back, and personally killed numerous bandits, disobeying his lord's orders.

While he posed the same dilemma to Yasuke, Hozoin accepted the duel nonetheless. As they dueled with their kanabōs, Hozoin began divulging pieces of advice while sparring. He was eventually bested by Yasuke, whom he told about how he had disobeyed his lord's wishes in the dilemma mentioned. Although he stated that he was ready to face the consequences, Yasuke admitted to having dealt with the bandits' leader, thus stopping any repercussions from happening.
