Watanabe Moritsuna (1542 – 1620) was a Japanese samurai of the Watanabe clan who served under Tokugawa Ieyasu.
Biography
In 1560, Moritsuna was in a village near Okazaki Castle in Mikawa,[1] where he was ordered to find a highly skilled shinobi for his daimyō Matsudaira.[2] While fighting a drunk, he noticed that Hattori Hanzō was watching him and called him out.[1] When Hanzō tried to deny his presence, Moritsuna asserted that he liked a good chase. Chasing Hanzō across the rooftops, Moritsuna challenged the shinobi to a fight. While taunting him for his perceived lack of skill, he was soon caught off-guard by Hanzō's quick thinking.[2]
With Hanzō having passed his test, Moritsuna introduced himself, after which Hanzō apologized for his earlier remarks. Moritsuna also apologized for his test and stated that he needed Hanzō for a task.[2] Going to meet Matsudaira, Moritsuna told Hanzō that this mission was dangerous and it may affect not only his standing, but his family's as well.[3] After entering Matsudaira's residence, Moritsuna and Hanzō met with the daimyō, who confided in both of them about their secret mission.[4]
Matsudaira informed them that his wife Sena and his children Matsudaira Nobuyasu and Kamehime were detained at the Imagawa Mansion under Imagawa Ujizane's watch, and tasked Moritsuna and Hanzō to rescue them discreetly. When Hanzō divulged his real mission, Matsudaira revealed that Ujizane had recently received a Jesuit priest who carried a red cross around his neck, similar to the one described by Hanzō. With the revelation of the Templars' involvement, Hanzō accepted the mission from Matsudaira.[4]
While getting ready for their mission, Moritsuna noticed Hanzō's Hidden Blade and asked him about it, to which Hanzō divulged his alliance with the Assassins and his adoration of Tsuyu, who had given him the blade in Iga. At that moment, Hanzō accidentally activated the blade, nearly killing himself. After brushing the incident aside, Hanzō and Moritsuna turned their attention back to the mission and began to plan their rescue of Matsudaira's family.[4]
