Plot

Succession Contest arc

After Prince Zhang Lei's meeting with Kurapika, Queen Oito, and Prince Woble; Sakata and Hashito are ordered by their Prince, to be Prince Woble's bodyguards until the next banquet. Slakka under orders by Queen Unma follows the two reluctantly, while expressing his displeasure of being fired if he fails his mission.[1]

Upon returning back in Woble's quarters, Kurapika informs Bill about Sakata and Hashito as Slakka talks with Babimyna to keep an eye out on Sakata, while he takes care of Hashito.[1]

Chap 367 - Bodyguards

The bodyguards watch the cockroach fly

Sakata and Slakka both watch and Queen Oito, Bill, Kurapika, and Shimano look for something. Slakka quietly asks Sakata what does he think they're doing, Sakata believes their search is related to Nen and they maybe trying to hide something in the process. Right after Prince Tubeppa's Captain of her Royal Bodyguards Maor arrives and everyone is brought into guards waiting room, Sakata along with everyone else listens to Kurapika's explanation about the Guardian Spirit Beasts and watches as Bill seemingly uses his Nen ability to control a cockroach that was in the room. Kurapika then proposes that he'll teach everyone how to use Nen, with the condition that that he'll also give the same proposal to the other Princes and it's their choice whether they choose to participate in it or not.[2]

With the news of the death of Prince Momoze being learnt, Sakata approaches Kurapika and asks him why her Guardian Spirit Beast didn't protect her. Kurapika surmises that because she ran out of energy the Guardian Spirit Beast couldn't make a move to protect her, which Sakata agrees with. The bodyguards all gather in Queen Oito's room where Babimyna questions Queen Oito's outburst earlier, but she brushes it off feeling awful for the death of Prince Momoze and requests to be left alone. Babimyna then orders Sakata to follow him out of the room and to leave Kurapika as the Queen wouldn't feel at ease with their presence.[3] Sakata rushes into Queen Oito's room after another outburst after she encounters the Fourth Prince's Guardian Spirit Beast from the perspective of the cockroach possessed by Sayird's Nen ability. The following day he stands by Slakka and Hashito with numerous other bodyguards from other Princes who wish to learn Nen from Kurapika in a two week period.[4]

Chap 370 - Barrigen dies

Sakata shoots Barrigen

Slakka tries to start a conversation with Sakata about Myuhan trying to start trouble, which is fortunate for them. Sakata on the other hand gives no response. Immediately after Barrigen the bodyguard for Prince Marayam is killed by a small pack of white snakes, he pulls out his 9mm caliber gun and shots and kills the snakes. Sakata warns everyone to stay away from Barrigen's body as there could still be snakes still in his body, Belerainte however still checks Barrigen's vital and calms that he could have drawn breath and that he could have killed him. Sakata however refutes the claim as Barrigen was obviously dead and that the Kakin Army should be contacted. Kurapika also notes that Prince Zhang Lei's bodyguards use 9mm caliber pistols and that not even Gyo can protect them from those kinds of guns.[5] He then has Hashito handcuff Loberry, noting the attack happened after she diverted everyone's attention. He calls Supreme Magistrate Cleapatro to have Queen Seiko arrested for complicity, but the evidence is not deemed sufficient. He agrees with Kurapika that his students should not be allowed to use weapons.[6]

When Kurapika accuses Yuhirai and Shedule of having hidden the fact they are Nen users, the three agree to talk after the lecture. Sakata insists on being present, citing his superior experience as a bodyguard and Kurapika's deal with Prince Zhang Lei. Yuhirai accepts due to his employer wishing for cooperation among the heirs. However, he is reluctant to talk about the prince's Guardian Spirit Beast in front of Sakata, who reassures him that the Third Prince is seeking a peaceful solution while thinking to himself they can checkmate Prince Halkenburg by forcing him to choose between his ideals and the crown. He then states their priority should be finding the user of Silent Majority.[7]

He then returns to Queen Oito's room. After Kurapika finishs his conversations with Vergei and Hanzo, Sakata demands to know more about the effects of the Nen ability affecting Room 1013. With Babimyna's consent, Kurapika begins to explain. Sakata then asks him to keep him updated.[8]

The following day, at 10:05 a.m., Myuhan is killed in the toilet by Silent Majority. Sakata shoots three of the four snakes, but the fourth disappears due to the user disengaging the ability. He later stands by Kurapika as Woble's faction is accused of being behind the attacks.[9]

Equipment

Handgun: As a Royal Bodyguard for Prince Zhang Lei, Sakata is equipped with a handgun loaded with 9mm Luger cartridges. Kurapika, a Conjurer, believes he would not be able to stop its bullets completely even with Gyo.[5]
