After barely escaping Africa with his life for speaking out against ruling warlords, Britt found himself in China. He was trapped here by the invasion of the Imperial Japanese Army. It was here that he saved a man's life from the Japanese. This man was Kato and he offered himself to Britt as a servant and protector for saving his life. The men became good friends and they returned to America.
