Captain America recruits an ally into New Avengers team to find a connection between Hydra and Silver Samurai.
On the night of a prison break at Raft, Matt Murdock was on board with a group of fellow superheroes to contain a massive breakout. All of them have been banded together by
Captain America into a team except Murdock, who refuses to join his
New Avengers because of his secret identity of being
Daredevil was made public lately.
Now that forty two super-powered criminals are free again, Cap is busy making rounds to catch them up one by one. He came to Murdock to talk about Keniuchio Harada AKA
Silver Samurai, who was a prisoner that escaped Raft that night. Harada was likely to be assisted by
The Hand but he believes it was most probably Clan Yashida.
Aside from
Daredevil, only
Wolverine knows about Japanese underworld and he is currently not available, therefore they need him right now. Matt explains that federal government is on his tail and he can come under fire for even knowing him but Cap then pointed out about the time when he became "
Nomad" and represented no one else.
Matt then suggests him of someone that has every training and knowledge he has about Clan Yashida and
The Hand. Steve Rogers meets this person to debrief their mission to locate Harada, learn his plans and their rule of no killing. Next day, a black suit wearing ninja goes beating up Clan Yashida thugs in Japan for information.

The mysterious ninja then finds a way to a secret fortress of Clan Yashida to see Harada being approached by
Hand shortly before he is greeted by
Viper AKA Madame Hydra but had to run abruptly when some
Hand ninjas sneaked up. Making a break for it, the ninja made it to Stark Enterprises building, unaware of being followed by
Hand.
Aside from Cap, no one among
New Avengers team has known this guy and before they could catch a break, they came under attack from a swarm of
Hand ninjas.
Captain America,
Iron Man,
Luke Cage,
Spider-Man and
Spider-Woman get engaged with this group momentarily who came following their contact in Japan that Murdock sent.
Keniuchio is brought to Japan to take lead of
The Hand in rise of a twisted
Hydra and corrupted
S.H.I.E.L.D. They are interrupted by a ninja who came to warn about an intruder that they engaged and followed thinking they have ties to American heroes but are ordered to retreat and soon, they all withdraw from fighting the
Avengers.
Spidey notices that Jessica is missing and she actually flew to Fortress Yashida only to come across
Viper. They have an argument over a deal made earlier to give her powers and then she tells
Spider-Woman to hit her with a Venom Blast since her friends are right behind her in a Quinjet and she obliges this time without a hesitation.
Cap orders
Silver Samurai and his associates to stand down but Harada asks if he is aware that his government abducted him to put in Raft without trials. They decide to sort things out by Keniuchio unleashing his sword on his associate group of Hand ninjas and
Iron Man using a massive concussion blast to knock off all of them.
New Avengers team eventually leaves with
Viper with them since she is a wanted terrorist and Jessica Drew attempts to release Madame Hydra mid-flight but accidentally Cap fell out as well and she immediately jumped to catch him. Their mysterious ninja friend reveals who is behind that mask and Cap confronts Jessica about her motives.
