以蔵

Okada Izō, known as "Izō the Slayer," is a skilled swordsman in 19th-century Japan. At the recommendation of Ryōma Sakamoto, he is assigned to escort Kaishū Katsu, the military magistrate of the Tokugawa Shogunate, on a voyage to San Francisco aboard the Kanrin Maru. The Japanese delegation aims to ratify the Treaty of Amity and Commerce between Japan and the United States.

During a welcoming party, Izō becomes enraged by the arrogant attitude of his patron, Richardson, and causes a major disturbance. This incident leads Izō to decide to stay in the United States, setting off on a journey from the West Coast to Washington, D.C. Along the way, he encounters various events and historical figures, navigating a foreign land while carrying his samurai spirit.
